Chapter 72
Vienesse POV
They hoped on my car. Nilagyan ko na sila ng seat belt. Nasa tabi ko si Zievia.
"Bakit mo ginagawa ito Ms. Vienesse?"tanong niya sa akin. Napatingin ako sa kanya.
"Miss Lee, I saw something on you that could be wasted if you will continue work on Eon's company. Isa pa, I want to help your family. I learned to give not because I have much, but because I know exactly how it feels to have nothing"seryoso kong sabi sa kanya. Farrah Jewel Lee ang buo niyang pangalan.
"I don't have that much to repay you but I promise I will do everything I have to give you the best service I could have and that I assure you"she was determined.
"Aasahan ko iyan"nginitian ko sila at inilahatid sa bahay nila. Papaalis na ako ng bigyan ako ng pansit ng nanay niya.
"Ah hindi na po"pagtanggi ko sa kanya. Naikwento na ni Farrah ang nangyari.
"Hija, ito lamang ang maibibigay ko sa iyo sa kabutihan mo"nahiya akong tumanggi kaya tinanggapn ko na.
I am not used to be gived something. I have a motto that "Goodness has it's own reward". Maagaan ang loob kong makatulong.
I need to go home now. I received a text from gramps that I need to tell him if we got the contract.
Nadatnan kong may bagong sasakyan sa garahe. It might be his car. May class siya sa pagpili ng sasakyan.
"Nasaan si Lolo?"tanong ko sa katulong. Nasa dining kina daddy. It was just 4:30 PM.
Nasa lawn siya. Nagmemeryenda ng prutas na mula sa plantation niya sa probinsiya. Tumikhim ako.
"O ikaw pala Vienesse. Have you got the deal?"he was eager to know the answer.
Pinalungkot ko ang mukha.
"Unfortunately, Zievia discovered that I am a lady not a man"napayuko ako. Gusto kong makaganti sa ginawa niyang pagpapain sa akin sa mga brat na babaeng iyon.
"We still didn't got the deal. I made you do this because I want to test your patience. It will play a vital role in being a good Mafia Boss. Pero ibibigay ko parin sa iyo ang posisyon"niyakap niya ako.
"You know what Lolo?"tanong ko sa kanya. Ibinitin ko pa talaga. I want him to suffer badly.
"What?"tanong niya. Kumalas na ako sa kanya. He wasn't dissapointed at all. Nakangiti na siya.
"I haven't told you the whole story yet after that I saved her and she finally signed the papers!"Napasigaw ako sa kasiyahan. Iniabot ko sa kanya papeles.
"This calls for a little celebration"masaya nitong tinignan ang papeles. Ipinatawag rin nito ang maid.
Now, my only problem is how can I convince Klein to postpone our marriage. Were getting married this June.
Hinanap ko siya. I even tried to call his phone pero out of reach iyon. Kinabahan ako. He of all people would never get hia phone out of reach.
"Klein?"kumatok ako sa kwarto niya. But there was no response. I can even have blisters sa pagkatok ko aa kwarto niya.
Wala pa rin sumasagot. I found the duplicate key. Mabilis na isinuksok ko iyon sa key hole.
Hinanap ko siya sa buong kwarto. But he wasn't there. I can feel something swell in me, I am afraid to lose him.
