Why did you not tell me?
Chapter 40
"Why did you not tell me that you know who I am when you already know it?"
Her male workmates did not answer her.
"Why? Why did you not tell me that you already knew me and my family background?"
"We want to talk to you, at all times. You are a good friend, a down-to-earth person. You are a good person even if you are rich, and you are not looking down at us, even our families belonging to the middle and poorest classes."
"Then what is the problem? Why did you all act like you do not know anything?"
No one is still answering her.
She turned to face the direction of her cubicle and took her first step to go back to it.
She had the resolve to do what was right. Loitering during office hours, wasting the electricity, and adding to the internet bills without doing something worthwhile for the company is forbidden, and may result in suspension and some penalties. She will call the higher-ups to tell them what her wo

Chapter 41There is a profound silence in the room. No one dared to speak a word-only the dripping of water from the bathroom across the department can be heard.It is now clear in their minds that Miss Lisha is now pissed off."Speak, now." Lisha came back to her monobloc chair and tried to listen to their explanations, but Aaron seemed to be the only one who had the guts to speak to Lisha, whose head is twirling with different emotions."We knew who you are when we saw you the first time. All of us are interns here before the company hired us, right? It is more of what we have observed when we saw you, not totally gut instinct, as I remember." Aaron stated.Lisha pondered for a second, rubbing her chin, thinking things deeply."Okay, then, what are you trying to say, Aaron? Get straight to the point, this discussion is being lengthy. Just answer my single question, and this issue is all done." Lisha grumbled, like a lion out of patie

Chapter 42She walked towards the second bedside table located nearer the VIP room door, opening a huge basket containing a bunch of flowers and a big vase. She opened her handbag and got some tissue wipes from it, and wiped the vase with tissue wipes to clean off some remaining dust from it.An elegant woman, in her middle fifties, graced the plain room of Tanashiri. She began taking out some meals from the meal basket she left at the entrance door and opened the meal containers. She also has some fragrant flowers packed into bouquets."You brought this all by yourself? Why did you not call someone to help you with all these errands?""I heard these flowers I bought are good for comatose patients. Experts say that the smell of the pollens of these flowers stimulates the nervous system of comatose patients that helps them regain their consciousness easily. I will visit our son every day to bring him newly-harvested flowers of this kind."

Chapter 43That day, she is not that usual cheerful and smiley face pretty girl in town everyone knows.The place has an eerie atmosphere. It is a weird place for her, with silent murmurs everywhere. The longer she stays in that place, the more agonizing it is for her. She wants to cry her eyes out, she is really terrified.Some people there have grim facial expressions, and most of them aren't speaking a single word. More or so, for her, they look like zombies. Pale in color and blank in expressions.From observing afar, intently, you can say and have a wild guess that the customers in this hospital are couples.All of the customers are paired evenly: every girl and woman has a boy and man sitting beside them, respectively.It has been more than almost thirty minutes that she is sitting there in a comfortable set of benches made of combined aluminum and stainless steel, and the metals, therefore, are contributing to the cold atmosphere feel

He is known to talk back to their school teachers, and punch other students whenever he likes.She thought that she would never experience that kind of treatment from her boyfriend. She thought that she is special, and would treat her differently from others.In front of everyone at that."Why are you shouting at me? What-what did I do?" Clarita asked her boyfriend.Paciano suddenly grabbed Clarita's arms which are burnt. He inspected her arm. It is now turning red."You should have been more careful.

I cannot afford to have a hard stumble this time on my path, I had so much hardship in my life and I put so much stake in the past to achieve my dreams. I must put my dreams and priorities first.

It came from Tanashiri's VIP hospital room.Paciano and Clarita is inside, and they are having a commotion."What is that sound?" the head doctor who is busily engrossed in his medical records, headed out of his office, just meters away from the group of nurses that grouped themselves as they heard the sound, and asked the nurses sitting in the nurses' station.One of the older nurses made a sign for a nursing intern to get some news, and she ran towards the room to have some clue of what is happening.

"Where did we go wrong, Clarita? Everything was so perfect. What happened?" She walked gracefull towards the bathroom, almost tiptoeing, to get some squeky clean towels. Her footsteps cannot be heard, even if she is wearing some heels. It is wide open, and the door entrance to the bathroom is not narrow, so she just easily entered inside. She regained her composure again after the violent commotion that happened between her and Paciano a while ago, so her usual self is shown again, like who she is, really, usually, as is seen and known by everyone-a flawlessly groomed woman, a refined and delicate daughter of a rich family famous in town. She did not answer his question, but did continue what she is doing inside the bathroom while humming in the tune of some Beethoven piece that is her favorite. She has some talent in arts, in singing, and is very fond of music. She is sorting the soft towels based on their colors and sizes, and got the softest towels in her
