The young boy, with still some disgusting snot and booger on his face, his freckled fair skin already a little tanned from fleeing Warsaw, him and the others running and hiding to save themselves from the senseless and emotionless soldiers who had gone on a killing spree, walked cheerfully towards Jouri's table. He is smiling from ear to ear as he served the dishes they ordered as if nothing happened weeks ago to him and his whole family tree. Jouri ordered almost all the foods listed on the menu of the restaurant as if she owns the money they will spend. The amount to be paid for their food will amount to more than the usual daily sales the restaurant makes; even increased ten-fold. Jouri tried to help him a bit by getting some of the plates and drinks from the trays, but the young boy refused to accept Jouri's help, removing Jouri's hands gently from the plates filled with the food. He waved his small hands slowly, clearly saying that he needs no help at the moment, as he can mana
Hiraya is trying to engross her exhausted and drained self in the computer program she has been working on for months after her short company leave, and it is for a sister company of the company she is working for, and also, she is working her ass off with the business plan that she's been assigned, but it seems that she cannot get herself focused completely on her task this day.This business plan will be used to boost the company's productivity and sales, and the computer program she is working on alone will surely be big and helpful for the company, only if the company will not crumble amidst the family tragedy Tanashiri's family is experiencing in that time frame.The business plan should have been done by Kate, the known promiscuous muse of the company who uses her body and face to get what she wants and needs. Despite her trash ways and personality, their male higher-ups adored and worshipped Kate, especially her beauty, that they allowed her to enslave other employees by doing
Everyone in Hiraya's office is deeply engrossed in their computer desktops, while sipping their coffee, or tea, lacking sugar and creamer in it."Damn this company, even sugar and creamer is being denied to us. This is injustice! Is the price of creamer and sugar enough to make a company like this go bankrupt? Are they purely affected by the latest inflation? No! I am sure of that! What they are doing right now, to us, is that they are benefiting from our brains to keep this company running, without us being rewarded properly! We are so exploited! I want to go to a public attorney's office for this! This is pure capitalism! At its finest! Why would they reject our request for coffee creamer and sugar? These shits are not expensive!" The upset employee is sipping his hot coffee, and cringes at its taste. Bitter."I cannot believe myself for putting up from this abusive company. I used to be an IT professor at a university, got my masters and doctoral abroad, and taught many computer
"You all got your passports ready, right?"They all looked at each other, and began searching their luggages and bags.They nodded, except Hiraya.She is done searching her handbags, many times, thoroughly at that, and there is no passport placed in there.Shoot. I am doomed.They are now all seated in the first class van of the company, snugly. Some are even taking a nap the first minute they took a seat in the van.It is a luxurious van, and it is their first time to sit in it.It is the premiere product of Mercedes-Benz-First Class Customs! A latest feature product in the automotive market, a private custom sprinter limousine!Others gaped at how luxurious the vehicle is, while others are already tucked in, sleeping, snoring. It is a state-of-the-art vehicle, with full recliners, slide out desks, television, refrigerators, sliding side door, and vinyl walls.It is a full description of luxury, fine-textured at its finest, except that it lacks one thing-a black colour that is the u
"Everyone, stop bickering over trivial things and let me drive and peace," the driver said, scaring the people at he back.The driver is clearly threatening them.He is grasping the steering wheel with his strong hands; it is noticeable as it is audible that it gives the sound of screeching wheels.Stepping on the gas, the luxury car sped up on the car lane, almost bumping into other cars in queue for the toll gates in the other side of the road.It will just take almost ten seconds for them to fully collide with the car that just stopped meters far from them."Stop!"There is an utter silence inside the van, and the driver pressed the brake, making the van stop an inch away from the Toyota car in front of them. The Toyota car driver, after paying for the toll, got out of his car, and walked near to the luxury van where they are riding."Tangina ninyo, you mother*******, useless bunch of shits, mga walang kwenta! If you do not want to live in this world anymore, just die! Die alone! D
Hiraya and Lisha just woke up from a light dream. Sitting by a riverbank. With the man he always see for many months now. And this time, a woman and a man is included in the list. They are four people, altogether, enjoying the calm and beautiful scenery nature has to offer. Drinking Da Hong Pao, tasting its intricate taste, eating tea egg and salted nuts, and feeling the cool breeze coming from the Wuyi mountains. "Ladies and gentlemen, we are now nearing the Shanghai International Airport. Please expect a little airplane turbulence as we land in the tarmac, and fasten your seatbelts tightly." The female flight attendant spoke in a tonal manner Hiraya is familiar of. She had the smile Lisha and Hiraya is familiar of. They felt a slight plane turbulence, but it disappeared in a span of a minute. A man appeared from the back of the plane, and the two almost had a sudden heart attack. "We are now in the airport. As you are our esteemed visitors, your accommodation, snacks, and
They are both share the same hotel bedroom.It is February 1.Year 2023."Lisha, what time is it?" Hiraya asked.Lisha grunted. She is still lying on the floor, drunk.She drunk by herself after making the computer program assigned to her as they landed Shanghai and given their hotel room. In that way, she will fall asleep fast to forget the stress the company gives her while working on her project."Gaga, may relo ka. Bakit hindi mo kaya subukan tignan? Pareho lang tayong di nakaligo ng isang araw, kaya panigurado, hindi mo pa naaalis relo mo.""Ay, oo nga, matignan nga."It is 1:46 pm."Hapon na pala. Tumayo ka na dyan at humiga sa kama mo. Mas lalong sasakit likod mo nyan kapag dyan ka pa rin humiga, sira ulo."Hiraya dragged her best friend to her bed. Lisha looks thinner than Hiraya, but her weight exceeds that of her by a pound."Aray! Dahan-dahan naman oh! Kaibigan ba talaga kita o hindi? Makahila ka wagas ah!" Sigaw ni Lisha sa kanyang kaibigan."I am sorry, sorry for having a
That guy is becoming really accustomed to me.Hiraya and Lisha got a telephone call."You two, got a good sleep?"The way the sentence is spoken sounds sarcastic.It is their immediate superior, Pia.They are out of words."What, are you two tongue-tied now? What are you doing? Get down here in the lobby and we will now officially start with the project!"The call ended and the two struggled to get out of their luxurious bed."Bitch, what the hell are you doing?"Lisha is busy inspecting their baggage and choosing between her outfits."Just wear anything as long as you are not naked! My goodness! You did not bother to put your laptop, phone, wallet, documents and laptop charger in your bag? Nutcrack!"Lisha is smiling as she scans her outfits. She chose a hanfu-like dress with a tinge of casual professional look in its style.You know what, I feel like fate has something wonderful in store for me, and for you too, Hiraya.Hiraya arranged Lisha's things and put it in her big bag. She e
