ZACHARY LUIS' POINT OF VIEW

GROWING up with a flirty mother is the most hateable thing that happened in my life. My name is Zachary, also famously known as Zakira, the queen of designer.

It was exactly 8:00 am in the morning when I arrived at my company. As soon as I stepped on its corridor, everyone stood up and greet me with their afraid faces.

With no words, I proceeded to the golden elevator, the elevator which only me is allowed to use.

I silently arrived in my office and began doing my tasks as the chairman.

I don't want to remember any of my personal problems, as much as possible I wanted to focus myself in building the biggest company in this world to the fullest just to get those people who cause me pain out from my mind.

I was in the middle of signing some documents and project reports when suddenly, someone knocked on my elegant office's door.

I was about to respond on the knocks when it opened without my permission.

What the hell?!

“DON'T YOU KNOW HOW TO WAIT FOR MY RESPONSE BEFORE ENTERING MY OFFICE?!” I instantly shouted as soon as the person entered in my office.

I was stunned and surprised when I saw a cute teenager boy and I feel like I couldn't resist my gazes from staring at him.

“Ay sorry po ser, nakalimutan ko po” pakamot-kamot pa sa batok na saad niya with peace sign and awkward smile.

As I am glancing at him, I suddenly felt a strange feeling.

Am I developing my gay sexuality? No!

It's impossible! My heart will always choose women. I'm just acting and wearing like this because of the pain I had to forget that I got from my previous lover.

Nasaktan ako ng madaming beses dahil sa babae but I will never love a guy and there’s no damn way that I will.

Nalaman ko na siya ay nag-aapply as a driver, his name is Alex.

I checked him from head to toe, his manhood kinda look strange but it is obviously bigger than mine.

I winced as I imagined if ever I fell in love with him and had an affair, that'll be disgusting.

Not being homophobic but being in love to a guy is not my thing and will never be.

Okay so why am I thinking about this anyway? Nevermind. I should jus focus on my task and bussiness.

After some several questions, I wanted to hire him immediately but I don't wanna be so obvious that I liked him. I gave him a 1 week trial and instantly texted Vanessa, my personal secretary to reject all of the applicants as my driver because I already chose someone. I don't wanna admit that I had a huge crush at first sight to him but I could not deny it because it is me myself who felt it. And I can’t just lie to myself that I don’t like him.

I throw my key's car to him and he instantly catched it, I then noticed the trace of annoyance on his face.

Cute...

No what the fu--

“Saan po ang parking lot, si—ma'am?” Ang tanong niya muli sa akin.

I explained well what he should do but he seems a little bit ignorant. I'm hating the fact that I'm liking him despite his lack of knowledge.

Damn it! Love, don’t hit me like this! At least not to him!

Damn it! He is a fuckin' male and I can't deny that I am attracted to him at the first time that I saw him.

“Just get the hell outta here and do as I said!” I yelled at him to prevent my self from smiling.

Kinikilig ba ako? Damn Zach, kakagaling mo lang sa heart break. Kalmahan mo!

Pag labas niya sa aking opisina ay agad akong napahilamos ng mukha ko gamit ang aking mga palad.

I couldn't figure out my feelings. I am smiling but annoyed at the same time. What the hell?!

It was just minutes but I already confirmed that I'm romantically attracted at him. Sh!t.

This is not a good sign! I have to resist this feelings no matter what.

Few minutes have passed again, he then came back in my office. I instantly focused on the paper to avoid my self from looking at him. I signed anything even though some of these papers I am signing are trashes.

I don't know if should I avoid him or not? I feel like I don't want him to be out of my sight but I don't like this feeling at all.

Paulit ulit ko nang sinabi na ‘I don’t like this feeling’.

But I like him. Damn!

Another day had passed again. Sinundo niya ako sa bahay ko, nagustuhan ko naman iyon pero ayaw ko. I can't help my self but to scold.

Ano ba Zach! Figure it out how to overcome this. Madami ka pang problema na dapat tapusin at heto ka, wasting your time thinking if you should get rid of this likeable and unacceptable feelings.

I wanna take my breakfast with him so I ordered him to bring me to a fine restaurant before arriving at my office. However, I'm not comfortable to invite him.

I got out of my car he was driving awhile ago and took my breakfast in this nice and fine dining restaurant where he brought me, alone.

Nang matapos ko ang breakfast ko ay agad din akong sumakay sa kotche. Parehong ayaw kong nag-hihintay siya at gusto kong makita ko ulit siya kaagad.

His scent is so natural. Umiikot ito sa loob ng sasakyan ko habang nakadekwatro akong umuupo sa backseat. Tinitignan ko at sinusuri ko ang mukha niya habang nag mamaneho siya.

Korean style ang buhok niya at makinis ang balat niya maliban sa maugat-ugat niyang mga kamay na nakahawak sa manibela ng kotche.

I was too focused on him that I didn’t even realized that we already arrived at my company. Thinking about him, I shook my head to get rid of him in my mind.

Para hindi talaga niya ako maabala ay inutusan ko siyang bilihan ako ng espresso at nang mapag-isa naman ako kahit papaano.

Nang nasa opisina na ako ay hinihingal naman na pumasok dito si Alex habang dala-dala ang kape kong binili niya gamit ang ibinigay kong black card.

Inilapag niya sa harapan ko ang kapeng kan’yang binili at damang-dama ko naman ang hininga niya sa balat ng mukha ko dahil sa pagkahingal niya.

I didn't responded on it, instead I let my self freely felt his hot breath.

Nang makalayo na siya ay saka ko na ininom ang coffee ko. I liked the taste of the coffee pero agad ko itong idinupla nang mapagtanto kong sumusobra na ako.

Damn Zach! Get rid of it.

Napahawak ako sa aking sentido dahil kahit sinimulan ko nang basahin ang mga dokyumentaryo na nakalapag sa aking lamesa ay siya pa din ang laman ng isipan ko.

“Kukuhanin ko na po ba ang kotse sir?” Tanghaling tapat na nang magsalita si Alex. Agad akong tumingin sa kaniya upang sagutin siya.

“Yes.” I simply answered and immediately looked back at my workpapers.

“Saan ko po pala kukuhanin?” Tanong niyang muli.

“Parking lot.”

“Last question na po ma'am, saan po ang parking lot?” Tanong niyang muli.

I wanted to laugh. His actions look adorable for me pero upang mapigilan ko ang tawa ko ay naggalit-galitan na lang ako.

“Just get the hell out of the building, Click the f*cking button on the key and if a luxurious car made a noise, that's it!” Inis-inisan kong usal sa kaniya at agaran naman siyang lumabas habang natataranta at pakamot kamot pa ng ulo.

Nang tuluyan na siyang makalabas ay napa sandal ako sa swivel chair ko saka ako ngumiti ng malapad. Why does he looks too well for me? I just cannot resist my smile when he is around.

Napahilamos ako sa mukha ko habang ngumingiti. Wala naman akong iniutos sa kaniya pero lumabas pa din siya para sa akin. I don't know why pero I liked the way he acted.

Mga limang minuto pa ang lumipas nang pumasok na muli si Alex. Agad akong bumalik sa trabaho ko at pumirma-pirma ng mga hindi ko na alam na papel.

Habang nakatayo naman si Alex sa tabi ng pintuan ay bigla siyang natumba nang biglaang may bumukas nito.

I wanted to help him but I didn't. As much as possible, I must not like him.

“Good day Madame, I am apologizing for interrupting you. I just wanted to inform you that you have an invitation from sir Ron.” Vanessa stated. Right after I nodded, she winked to Alex before leaving.

Damn that simp woman!

Alex seems he liked Vanessa because he keeps looking at her until Vanessa finally left.

Padabog akong tumayo at saka ko intusan si Alex. “Prepare my car right in front of the office. We have to go”. I commanded.

“Ngayon na ho?” Tanong niya pa sa akin.

Bigla naman akong nairita. Huwag niya sabihing nalutang siya dahil kay Vanessa?

“YES!” Irita kong tugon sa kaniya saka ako padabog na nagpatiuna na mag lakad sa elevator.

Nakita ko siyang sumunod sa akin ngunit bago pa man siya makapasok sa elevator upang makisabay sa akin ay nabakas kong nag aalinlangan s'yang makisabay sa akin sa elevator kaya namataan ko pa siyang tinungo ang hagdanan bago sumara ang elevator.

As soon as the elevator opened in front of the lobby of the building's first floor, mang Kanor, our head of the guard immediately approached me.

“Magandang tanghali po ser, nahulog po pala ni Alex, 'yung bago niyong pogitong driver ang susi ng kotche niyo.” Saad niya sa akin at saka niya iniabot ang susi ko.

I grabbed it without a word and got to my car.

Hinintay ko si Alex habang nasa loob ako ng kotche at nang hinihingal siyang dumating sa parking lot sa tabi ng sasakyan ko ay kinapa-kapa niya ang sarili niyang katawan.

I bet he's looking for the key.

I winced at saka ko pa siya inobserbahan. Tch! He's really clumsy.

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang biglaan niyang ipasok ang kamay niya sa kan’yang pantalon at ang mas ikinagulat ko pa ay biglaan akong tinindigan.

F*ck?! No!

Sa iritasyon ay kaagad kong binuksan ang bintana ng aking sasakyan na s’ya namang kan’yang ikinagitla.

“You are too slow that would cause to ruin my everyday mood. Hihintayin kita sa Elton's bar, if you don't arrive there, you are fired. Ayaw ko naman na sisantehin ka sa kabila ng mga efforts mo. Take this as your last chance.” I coldly stated at him and I drove as fast as I can.

If I can't fire him, then I'll make left becaue I really am not liking this feelings.

Ba't ako titigasan sa taong matitigasan din?

THIS IS SO FUCKING WHAT THE FUCK!
