Aren't you going to buy yours too "I ask while bringing all the paper bags because of the stuffs Mr. Woods bought for me.
"I ordered mine already online. No worries. " He answered as he glanced at me.His gazes darted to the paper bag and he immediately take it from me so that he can hold it instead.
"It's already eleven thirty. Let's just find a restaurant here. "Mr. Woods added and just like what he said we decided to find a restaurant inside the mall where we can eat.I keep on following Mr. Woods because he walks a little bit fast. Of course he is tall and I am too short compared to him.
"Come on, stop walking so fast." Icomplained and mumbling behind him.
"Tsk," He uttered as he grab my wrist and keep pulling me wherever he go. My eyes widened. Why is he doing these things always all of a sudden.
He will take care of his life. He will take care of what he does. I was always nervous about him. It's like he's re
"Really? Did he agree with you? Will he come?" Miss Jessie's eyes widened at me when I told her that Mr Woods would join us in their celebration. "Why? What's up? I mean, he'd better go with us. So that everyone can get closer to each other." I said happily. "Yeah, I know. But Mr. Woods is not the type who comes with us whenever we invite. At least once he has not come with us. Before, someone tried to invite him but he immediately refused." Miss Jessie explained again. I blinked. I didn't know that Mr. Woods was really that distant from all his staff here. After that scene I just finished a few to finish on my desk. It was five o'clock when Miss Jessie came to my table. "What, come on? The others are already in Mark's house, the others are already on the ground floor." He said and gestured to me. "Ah is that so? I'm out again. I'll just call Mr. Woods, he said he'll come with us." I explained more and it was appropriate to enter Mr. Woods' office but Miss Jessie stopped me immediate
When we arrived in the location of Mark's birthday we can already hear noises inside the restaurant they rented.Mr. Woods is just waiting behind me. Someone open the door for us and we immediately entered. When we are already inside Miss Bea is already chanting for Mark like they are all used of this kind of celebration."Guys guys, listen! I have an announcement." Miss Bea called everyone's attention.Some of them are greeting Mr. Woods awkwardly. "Good evening, Sir. Thank you for coming. I didn't know you will be attending today." I heard Mark talking with Mr. Woods. I glance at them. I smiled as Mr. Woods nodded to him and give hand for a shake hand."So guess what? Mr. Woods attended Mark's birthday. Mr. Woods promised that he will treat us for this night! Yehey! Miss Bea said happily.Everyone clapped their hands and chanted happily."You all should order now. You all can order whatever you want. By th
Why does Mr. Woods taking so long going back inside the restaurant?He said he will be fast. I lean my head from the chair inside his car and tried to look back behind if he is already coming.I scratch my head. I regret drinking too much. I mean, I didn't. It's just Justin who gave me that drink and I didn't know that it was a strong kind of liquor.Maybe Mr. Woods is still having conversation with Ammy. I've seen them talking earlier and they also dance and I don't even know why he suddenly appeared in front of me earlier and took me here just to wait for him!Maybe I need to find some taxi or something and don't wait for him anymore.I decided to open the door of his BMW and I am about to go out when suddenly a tall man stood and towered in front of me."Miss Kellah? I've been finding for you inside? Why are you here now?" The familiar voice of Justin echoed in my ears.I lifted my gaze to him and smile
"You are so quiet? What did you drink that made you that dizzy, huh?" I closed my eyes tightly when I heard Mr. Woods voice asking me confusely.I heaved a sigh before glancing at him. "That idiot, he gave me that liquor. What am I? A master and pro in drinking, tsk?" I don't know who I am talking with already. I wanted to close my eyes now."Who's idiot are you talking about, huh? Who gave you a strong liquor, Kellah? " I laugh when I heard Mr. Woods. I am dizzy but I am not drunk yet.Argh!!"Idiot? You!" I answered with my weary eyes."Me? I didn't give you any drink, Kellah. Is it Justin who are you talking about, huh? " He reasoned out to me."Yes! But you are still an idiot! I hate you! Did you enjoy dancing with Ammy, huh? Well, anyways, I don't care! Why are you so long inside? Hah! Never mind!"My head is aching already. My stomach is growling already like it wanted to spit something out."Why? What did I do to you, K
I am just staring at my phone while Talla is already helping Dad eating."Yes, True. Is he really Miss. Kellah's boss or uhmm.. " I heard Talla and also trying to glance at me like she is trying to dig information."Stop it Talla. He is just my daughter's boss. I'm sure Kellah don't have time for that kind of things." Dad answered and I also nodded about what he said."Yeah, Dad's right Talla. He is just my boss." I answered and finally took a bite from my bacons."I know Miss Kellah, maybe also the reason why he is really determined to wet a towel and watched me while I am wiping your face to make sure that you will get better already." My brows furrowed about Talla's litany."He did?" I ask curiously because I really can't remember anything."Yes, Miss. He also told me to cook a soup for you but you are too shut down to eat it." She added and I can't help but to massage the bridge of my nose."Aside from that, it seems like your Dad trusted him and he let him stayed here the whole ni
Just like what I said to Talla, I wanted to have a half day. I will going to work this afternoon so that I won't miss any schedules of Mr. Woods. Besides I am getting better now. Maybe that night is the most regretful night in my life.I am still annoyed about that liquor that Justin gave to me. Hays, I didn't know that he loves drinking those kinds of drink.Anyways, the most thing that I can't still moved on until now is Mr. Woods. I heave a sigh again when I remembered that he slept in my house. because Dad allowed him.I shake my head while staring at my reflection from the mirror.I bite my lip as I remember what he said.I should rest. Why would he allow me to absent just because I am so wasted last night. He doesn't like late works and absence of employees. He is so hard to understand. Aside from that, I also need to work, I don't want my salary to get decrease being absent. I am about to find a taxi when I go out from our house. It is already twelve o'clock and maybe they are
"Miss Kellah, how are you. I am so worried about you last night. If it was not Mr. Woods I won't let you go home alone."I bite my lip while awkwardly smiling in front of Justin. I glanced at the other Employees who is also eating with us.Since we already have lunch in our house with Mr. Woods they invited me here to have some talks while they are all eating.I didn't refused because I also wanted to be here rather than staying close with Mr. Woods especially that he keeps reminding me about what happened last night."No need to worry anymore, Justin. I am fine now and I also feel better now. " I answered so that he will also going to stop now from whining when in fact he is the one who gave me that strong alcohol causes me to be that dizzy and drunk.Maybe he does not remember that or he is just thinking that it was fine and never thought that I am not really good or into drinks."So Mr. Woods really took you home, Miss Kellah?" My
I go back in the fifth floor and give the drinks for Miss Jessie but I can't bring my vibe again because of what Ammy did. Sad to say but she ruined my day. I mean, I just wanted to have a peaceful mind at work but it seems like I am facing this without a choice.I don't know what her problem towards me but one thing for sure, she doesn't like me.I heaved a sigh and click the cabinet to open the hidden door of Mr. Woods office. Just like the usual I entered there like a free princess, of course I am his secretary."A drink," I uttered and drop it right in front of his table."Thank you." He said as he immediately grab it.He drink it without hesitations while glancing at me.I stretch my mouth to force a smile."Welcome. I'll go back to my work now." I uttered and about to turn my back from him but he immediately stopped me."Wait," He uttered and walk towards me after he stood up.I raised my brows."What is it, Sir?" I ask and tilted my head.
’That was Melden earlier. We are just eating lunch because she will having a piano lesson today.’’ He suddenly uttered.I was a bit shock since I didn’t expected that it was Melden.Now, let us ask too why is he telling me about it?‘’Awh, really? I didn’t recognized her maybe because she is facing you. She grew up so fast. I hope we can meet again.’’ I uttered casually so that he will already let me leave.‘’Yes you can if you didn’t left that fast earlier. I saw you, you eat there a while ago and when you saw us you were too fast and you left right away.’’ He answered and now a little bit annoyed.‘’You are really insisting that I am avoiding you, aren’t you? Aside from that I am used of eating so fast so why do you care about that, huh?’’ I sarcastically asked him.Last night when we met after the meeting he was so different and also earlier when he approached me and now I can already see the Rozieden where I am used of talking to, impatient and very bossy when he talks.‘’As far
I am facing my laptop when suddenly I received an email. I am so busy managing my budget for the building. As what Mr. Marforri said the permit will be out maybe next week and I already need to prepare to renovate the space and here I am planning it already. I am just lucky that Masha offered a help for the designers since she have friends when it comes in designing and I am thankful for that.I am also searching for workers that we need for the renovation, such painters and other workers who is involved in construction working.Next that I need to put in the list is the shops that we need to ask to provide all the things that is need in the restaurant such as chairs and tables and also for the themes so that the restaurant will have a good or nice ambience to create a good impression to the customers.Today is Wednesday and I read the email and it says that the permit will be out already in the Friday. The work will probably start In the Monday if I am already done gathering all the
I am facing myself in front of the mirror inside my room's bathroom. Is it worth it that I am still fighting until now. Is it worth it that instead of giving up yeras ago, I continued my life and didn't gave up. I am still here, I still ahve the energy but I am not sure if I still have the courage that I tried to burried inside me after all the tragedy that happened three years ago in my life. I am hoping and wishing that I can see and find the reasons again that I used before to continue. I am scared that I am losing it again. I am scared that I will be weak and fragile again. Three years ago it was not easy for me to survived. Three years ago I am so empty and nothing compared to who I am right now. I know I am not just the one who is experiencing these things too. for sure there are also people in this world who is always crying at night. People who are almost giving up on this life because they can't take it anymore but still they find reasons to live. Just like what I said
In the next coming days, I still need to wait for the permit. After that I will already start the renovation of the space, it will takes time and I need to be very handful about it after it happens. I need to be very focus about it too so that I can record all the expenses. I also need to hire another workers too for the renovation, cleaning and designing. I am too tired about last night. It was just a simple meeting and it made my eyes swollen like this. Well, who the hell even told me to cry hard like that after seeing that man after three years, huh? No one, no one and it was all my fault. I stopped drinking my coffee when suddenly my messenger started ringing and it was Masha who is calling me. It is a video call with her. I answered it immediately and place my phone in a pitcher so it will show my whole face while just drinking coffee at the same time. ‘’Kellah!’’ She greeted happily but her expression change immediately when she saw me. ‘’What happened to you, girl?’’ She a
Exact seven o’clock in the evening when I arrived to that expensive private restaurant that they sent as the address where the meeting should be held.There is nothing weir inside and just like how rich people usually interact with each other. I ask a crew for a booked meeting room and I showed her my ID and traced it. After it they show me the right room. It is indeed private. A crew opened the door for me and without hesitations I entered even if I am so freaking nervous about this. I am so freaking nervous for all the possibilities that might happen.I heaved a sigh when I saw two men sitting in a chair and in front of them is a table with foods and drinks that for sure so expensive just like how they look.I smiled to them and so they are to me. I can already see their faces clearly but no one looks like him to them. An old man smiled to me genuinely as he offers a seat to me.‘’Good evening young lady. I bet you are the owner of the ‘Pan de Restaurant.’” He uttered and I smiled t
My hands are shaking while drinking the coffee in my hand. Even once in the whole three years of my life, I didn’t expect this to happen. I mean, I am always thinking of him. He keeps running in my mind for almost three years of not seeing him. The only man that made me feel this way.But I am not sure yet if we will meet there. I am not sure yet if he will be there too but usually, three years ago he always do meetings personally.Dang, why am I even expecting too much? But is this just a coincidence that the lot’s owner wanted partnership for the building so that we will get a permit? But of course it is just a coincidence.I heaved a sigh and suddenly thought of doing something. Is it just fine if I will search him online? Is he still active on the business? But at the end I got tired of searching because his name isn’t appearing. Maybe social media isn’t his thing, even before, we just text each other and call.I shake my head at the end because I am here again thinking about him
Why the hell I didn’t notice that? Why didn’t I check where it came from? I am so dumb! I am so dumb!I screamed while running back and forth in my room. I am trying to cover my face and keep reading it again just to make sure that I am just mistaken but I am not! I am not! It’s real. It is really that bank.A partnership with that bank? A partnership with him?I am too stunned and just staring somewhere the whole night. I can’t still process it. It doesn’t want to sink in and I keep shaking my head.‘’No, this isn’t true. This isn’t true.’’ I muttered while biting the tip of my nails to stop myself from panicking too much.I can still remember the exact details before.How I watch his sorrowful eyes while I am leaving. My heart aches because of that memory. I am a terrible person for hurting someone like him. I am so selfish that time but I don’t regret it. It is painful, indeed but I’ve grown because of my choices in life. I learned too and those times with him will always have a sp
It took me three hours before I finally opened the email. I immediately read it while eating a sandwich for lunch. I parked my car near a gasoline station after I full tanked it. I am wearing a crop top sleeveless inside my gray blazer and a black pants partnered with a stilettos. I am leaning in the car like I don’t care about all the people passing the street. I remember what Toni said, my worker from the main branch. She said we need to settle a partnership from a bank? A bank? Seriously? Bank is too big to have a partnership with. It somehow reminds me of someone who is too grumpy and annoying but always managed how to communicate with investors and partnerships. I heaved a sigh after I finished reading the email. TO; Owner of the Pan de Restaurant branches. We are very open for partnership to fully and finally receive the permit in the City of -. We are asking for the presence of the owner for clarification and words from him/ her too. Thank you and we are expecting for yo
In the next days, I decided to assign someone to watch for the restaurant. I decided to move in the City to settle the paper that is need to settle. I am building a branch there, finally. At first, I am hesitating to build it in the City and I asked myself why. I ask myself for a reason and I just can’t find a valid one especially if Masha keeps pushing me to do it. ‘’You know what, just push it. Do it already and do not hesitate. It is not about the past, in fact it can be your way to heal yourself, girl. It’s for the business too.’’ She keeps motivating me and it always works to me. Masha is such a good friend to me. I met her one year ago and I really enjoy her company and kindness. ‘’Yeah, don’t worry. I already made up my mind so nothing can change it anymore. I forgot to read the email, I need to hang this call already, Masha.’’ I uttered and she just groaned from the other line and for sure she is already rolling her eyes if we are together now. She is busy for her son’s mov
