HT HotelI ENJOY touring around with Damien. I just made myself comfortable while he was always around. He is nice and gentlemanly, and I proved that when we were together in the Maldives for almost a day before returning to the Philippines.Those employees are also nice. They know me as the daughter of Torres who is now a partner of the Harrisons. They greet and treat me well, so I won't have a hard time adjusting to being one of the head manager departments.After Damien toured me we went to my office. He called his Secretary to bring the papers that I should study on my first day.When I felt tired, I sat on my swivel chair. While Damien is busy on his phone, I lean back on my chair. I moved my round chair so that I can feel like I'm relaxed.When I turned to face my desk, I suddenly sat up straight. That's because Damien is looking in front of what I'm doing."Tired?"I nodded. "Yeah, kinda... I just need to stretch a little and later on, I'm fine. So, what's next, Mr. Harrison? D
Food is Life"BUSY?"I suddenly raised my head when suddenly someone spoke at the opening of my office."Oh, hi.""It's already lunchtime, Aurora." He came in and came across my table.I looked at my wristwatch. "Well, yes... oh, I'm so sorry if I forgot the time. I thought Jina would remind me,""It's okay. Besides, she was actually on her way here, but I just stopped her because I was also heading here. So, can we go out for lunch now? Or do you want us to go to the hotel restaurant?""I chose to take our lunch here... so, that I can see the hotel restaurant on this very day. Also the reason, I missed their fish fillet and vegetable salad.""Okay," he took out his cell phone from his slacks and called someone while I stood up and pulled out my handbag. "Let's go.""Yes, I'm ready, and I realized that I am already starving," I said it and just made me laugh.The employees were almost surprised when we entered the HT Restaurant and Hotel. They did not think that the two owners of such
DoubtI SMILED at mommy as I approached where she was standing by the side of the big door of our house."Hi, Mom." I kissed her cheek."How was your first day at work, darling?""It's fine, mom. I'm still adjusting right now but no worries because our employees are always been good to me,""I'm glad to hear that, dear. Oh, anyway, I baked some cookies, your favorite. Wanna try it?""Oh, I love it, mom. It's perfect cause I'm really tired from a long day's work.""Let's go inside and you get changed your clothes now. So that you can have a snack right away,"After I got dressed, I immediately went down to the kitchen. There I saw mommy and the two of our maids.The four of us had a good time. Mom and I always allowed them to eat with us. Our kind helper is no different from us, and mommy is pleased to have someone to talk to while we are eating.After we had a snack we went to the veranda of our house."Your Aunt Minerva called me this morning, dear," Mommy said when I was just sittin
Be formal[ DAMIEN'S POV. ]"SHE is cute, I mean, beautiful..."I immediately looked at my girlfriend. I wonder what she said during her silence."Who?" I ask her."Who else, your future wife... Aurora Torres."There is something else in her speech. I don't know why she opened that topic. Previously, she had always had no comment."Ah, okay... Aurora."I saw her frown slightly, but she immediately removed that and she smiled."I stalk her account. She's beautiful. That's why your parents voted for her.""Kath..." I gently reached for her hand and kissed it. "Of course, you are the most beautiful woman for me."He smiled at me. "Really, only to your eyes?""Of course, I'm sure about it. Including my Mom, you're also counted as one who's the most beautiful in my eyes."Her smile grew longer. "Enough of your words."I smiled and winked."Serious question, honey."I frowned. "Is it personal?""Yes, and yes, you must answer this one.""Okay. Go ahead."She sighed. "If ever, will you fall i
Seriously"GOOD morning, Ma'am, Sir." Jina greeted us as we entered his office."Good morning, Jina..." I replied to Damien's Secretary. "Will you please make him a cup of coffee?""Sure, ma'am..."After I closed his office, I faced his desk. I saw him already sitting on his swivel chair."What did you say to my Secretary?" he is serious while asking."I asked her to bring you coffee," I smiled in awe. "Would you like a cup of coffee before you start your work?""Do I say I want a coffee right now, Ms. Torres?"My mouth was awed because it seemed like a different behavior at that time. I still smile at him even though I am curious."That's what I know. Don't you want it?""No. I didn't say I needed it."I got serious. I cleared my throat. "Okay, I'm sorry. I'll just have your Secretary cancel it." I said, turning my back."No need. Come here and sit down. Tell me what you want to show me!""It's about business,""Of course, it's about business!" he pointed that word.I swallowed at th
DetailsI WAS in the living room doing something when I saw my mother rushing down our big staircase."Aurora, Aurora..." She repeatedly called my name."Hey mom, slow down... What's going on mom, and why you're rushing down the stairs?" I asked her when she was in front of me."You know what-""What? There, you're out of breath from your haste. Please, get mommy some water." I ordered our maid who was in the kitchen."Darling, Minerva called!""Huh?" I frowned at what my mother said. "Why? what does he need?""They say, they will continue to ask for your hands now."My eyes widened when I heard this. "Really? Is it right now?"I awed. "Now? As in, mother?" she nodded. "Tsk. Right now, look mom, I am very busy." I said but the truth is that I feel nervous.She taps her forehead. "Why do you bring your work all the way home? What you should do for now is rest because today is Saturday, dear."I didn't make mommy feel that I was nervous. Damien is not talking with me, as if he is avoidi
ApologizeI GET my phone and composed some text messages. Whether he reads it or not is up to him. After I sent the short message I dropped the cell phone on the side of the sofa.It's not my thing to send him a message, it just happened to be necessary. I saw that he read it and looked at me.I raised my eyebrows slightly. And I get his response with a simple nod."Darling,"I looked at my mother. "Yes, mom?""Your Aunt is asking you,""Huh? Um, what is it, Aunt?""I said, what do you prepare for your wedding? Is it a beach, a church, or?""Mom, we both decided on a simple wedding." I looked at Damien because of what he said. I am glad he said that."No." His mom protested immediately."And also no... I won't agree because my daughter can only get married once," my mom also protested.I sighed. I don't want to talk anymore. I also felt that Damien didn't answer and tried to convince both of our mothers.I saw that he typed a message, and I immediately felt my cell phone vibrate."You
Speak outThe day of dealing with the details of Damien and I's beach wedding is also over. From that day on, I felt that he was communicating well with me.It's not like it used to be but somehow he can talk without avoiding. We are talking, although it is formal and it's all about business-related.A knock outside my office interrupted my work."Ma'am, the meeting will start shortly." Jina, Damien's Secretary, appeared."Okay, I'll be going in a few minutes, Jina. Thank you,""Okay, ma'am."I checked the papers that I need to bring and when I gathered everything I organized myself. When I entered, everyone looked at me. I didn't think I was the only one missing from that meeting."Sorry if I'm late." I reluctantly smiled at everyone and delicately sat next to Damien."Ms. Torres is already here, then let's start Mr. Harrison," said one of the board of directors."Okay, let's proceed now. " he then stood in front of everyone.He was talking, I can't help but look at him. I didn't kno
