VERNON "Can't I have any pictures of this lady?" I asked Casper. He immediately puts down his phone and looks at me irritatedly. "Dude, I already told you for five times that no. Ayun yung sinabi sa akin ni Skyler." "Come on, like, can't I pay someone for just a picture of this lady?" I asked him again. "Sabi ngang bawal. Tsaka pumirmi ka nga riyan, sandali na lang makikita mo na yang babae mo." Then he pulled out his phone and called the number of the Miss Night employee again. "Hello? Malapit na ba yung car? We're standing outside the entrance of the condo." "Excuse me, hindi ko siya babae, no. She's going to be my secretary." I corrected him. Napangiwi si Casper at tinignan ako mula paa hanggang ulo. "Ulol. Sa ugali mong yan imposible na di ka ma-fall sa babaeng yun." "Ikaw naman, parang hindi mo naman ako kilala. After my stealer ex, wag na lang. Baka pagnakawan nanaman ako at ma-broken ulit. I'd rather keep this miss night thing professional." "Alam mo, bro--" Casper puts
SOLLAIRE It's all farmland but I don't have any worry in me. Kasama ko naman si Chloe, Joan at Sev at napalagay na rin naman ang loob ko sa kanilang tatlo. Joan and Chloe being talkative helped me by being distracted from all the thoughts I have in my mind. Isa na roon ang pagiging aligaga ko dahil wala pang kahit anong tawag man lang o text sa akin si Mustang sa update tungkol kay Carlo. "Anyways, why did you decide to accept Miss Avon's offer?" Tanong ni Joan. "It's okay if you don't want to answer, I understand." She added. Nginitian ko si Joan para alam niya na ayos lang sa akin ang tanong niya. Si Chloe ay umayos ng upo at si Sev naman ay tumingin sa salamin para makita ako. I also gave him a smile before starting my story. "I had this business. A very controversial business I cannot tell you about. Then one day, I woke up and I was facing a lot of lawsuits from different powerful and wealthy people." I cleared my throat, nalulungkot nanaman kasi ako dahil naaalala ko n
VERNON's"Fvck." The first thing that came up into my mind when I saw her.She is a fvcking beauty and I kind of feel bad to feel my dick tingling. Shit. kaka-promise ko pa lang na hindi ako makikipag sex sa kanya at ayoko ng kahit anong klase ng attachment dahil sa trauma na naranasan ko noon, but if she;s this hot? Then I don't know how long I can keep that promise."We are now giving you the floor for your first dance with your future wife." 'When Miss Avon said that, I immediately stood up and walked around the table to face her. Nang magkaharap na kami, the height difference is very obvious, she is not petite but she is not a big woman also. In short, she's got this perfect physique."Shall we?" I offered her my hand.Hindi siya nagsalita, sa halip, inilagay niya lang ang kamay niya sa kamay ko at parehas na kaming nag lakad papunta sa gitna. We started dancing when the other's started dancing to.Nararamdaman ko ang kaba niya because she can't even give me a look. So, what I di
SOLLAIRE Vernon Ronan's home was unexpectedly clean. As in super clean at napakabango pa. Kung hindi mo nga kilala ang nakatira rito ay aakalain mo na babae ang andito. "What's with wealthy men always liking to live in a condo? Ayaw mo bang bumili ng house and lot? Afford mo naman." I critiqued him right after kong maupo sa malambot niyang sofa. Natuwa naman ako nang biglang sumampa sa akin ang isang pusa. "That's Missy." Pakilala niya sa kanyang pusa. "And to answer your concern, gusto ko rin at matagal ko nang balak na bumili ng lupa at patayuan ng bahay, kaso lang I've always been busy kaya hindi ko na maasikaso." "You know you can ask someone to scout you a good area where you can build your house, right?" He shrugged his shoulders. "Eh, I prefer to do that my self." Napa kibit balikat na lang ako. Siya pala yung tipo ng tao na punong puno ng trust issues sa katawan. No wonder why he had to join Miss Night just to hire a secretary. He wants a safety net, he want
SOLLAIRE I insisted to drive myself to the office kahit na ilang beses akong kinulit ni Vernon, ang boss ko, na sumabay na lamang sa kanya. Ang katwiran ko ay para makabisado ko na ang daan papuntang office para kaya kong magpabalik balik kung kinakailangan. "Godness, dami mong alam." Inis na banggit nito sa akin. Iniwasan ko na lamang na irolyo ang aking mata dahil pinapalalahanan ko ang sarili ko na boss ko ang kaharap ko. "Sir, it's really fine. I know how to drive and I got my license here." Iniabot ko sa kanya ang lisensya ko pero sa halip na kunin ito ay tinarayan lamang niya ako. Kung babae lang si Vernon ay aakalain ko na may dalaw siya dahil sa tindi ng ugali niya. "Eh, you are my secretary nga. Ride with me." Katwiran pa niya. Godness, di ba niya narinig ang sinabi ko kanina na ngayon lang naman kami maghihiwalay ng sasakyan? At tsaka para saan pa na binigyan niya ako ng kotse kung di niya naman ipapagamit sa akin. "Sir, ngayong araw lang naman para makabis
VERNONWhen I woke up, I was repeatedly calling Sollaire but I did not have her response.Napakunot na lamang ang noo ko bago ko abutin ang cellphone ko at makita na alas syete na ng umaga and that she should have been awake now.Mahigpit ko ring bilin sa kanya na gisingin ako pag nalate ako ng gising.When I walked past her bedroom, mas nagtaka ako nang hindi ko marinig ang tunog ng cooler niya. I did not have a chance to buy an ac yet kaya cooler muna ang nakalagay sa kwarto niya kaya rinig na rinig pa ang tunog ng cooler pag nakabukas ito. And when I had enough, kinatok ko na ang pinto niya."Sollaire? It's past seven, why are you still sleeping?" I loudly asked."Sollaire?""Sollaire? Get up, now. We have a lot to do.""Sollaire? I'm coming in, okay?"And when I opened the door, I was greeted by silence and a sight of no one"Where the hell is she?" Inis kong sabi habang dinadial ang number niya sa cellphone ko.And when she did not answer, I called Jane."Good morning, where you
SOLLAIRE Walang tigil si Vernon sa kakasalita at sa totoo lang ay nakakarindi na. Nakaabot na kami lahat lahat sa makati ay walang tigil sa paalala na para bang baguhan pa lang ako sa industriya. Let me bet, I can do his job better than him. "And remember, do not ever ever tolerate him." Mahigpit nitong bilin bago kami bumaba ng kotse. Kumunot ang noo ko. "Tolerate him with what?" Ngumiwi si Vernon at nagkibit balikat. "Eh, you will see what I'm talking about. Just don't be flirty and it is important for you to be appropriate." Napairap na lang ako pero sinabi ko na lang na, "Okay, sir. This is noted." Nakakabwisit, paulit ulit niyang paalala na be appropriate raw ako at wag daw kumilos sa malanding paraan. As if naman isa akong likas na malanding babae. Siguro nga eh mas malandi pa siya sa akin. Napaka kapal talaga ng mukha pero kailangan ko pa rin na maging professional kahit na sobrang bwisit na bwisit na ako sa boss ko. Pag pasok sa building, doon ko lang napagta
SOLLAIREWhen we entered the office, I was surprised to see the red and black interior of it. It screams hot. I like this office better than Vernon's office that looks so boring na para bang kwarenta anyos na ang nag-oopisina roon.Tutal para naman talagang kwarenta ang level ng ugali ni Vernon kaya bagay na bagay na ganoon ang itsura ng opisina niya."Where is he? Halos ma-late na nga tayo dahil sa kabagalan mo tas nauna pa rin tayo."I side eyeded Vernon dahil sa paninisi niya sa akin. Ano bang late ang pinagsasabi nito na ako ang naging dahilan? Eh sakto lang naman at mabilis ang kilos ko."I apologize, sir." Magalang pero plastik kong sabi.Instead of accepting ng apology, he rolled his eyes on me at kinrus ang kamay niya sa kanyang dibdib. Isinandal din nito ang likod niya sa sofa at pumikit.Salamat naman at nanahimik din si Vernon. Him continuously yapping is hurting both of my ears. Puro na lang reklamo at kasungitan ang nararanasan ko sa tukmol na to."Damn that bastard." Umu
