Waje
When I saw them flock over her, I had to go to other visitors who are now saying goodbye after the dinner and small talks, to ease the sudden awkwardness. Do I need to congratulate her? No, it would be un appropriate, what would be my other employee's reaction?
When I saw Jerome was approaching in our table with a bouquet I know he was here to see her. Why I am not comfortable with this feeling?
When I saw how she dress up for this evening. I knew that this will be a long evening.
When I saw my son uneasy in his sit, I knew that he cannot wait to see her... too.
But when I saw he was escorted by a handsome young man, I knew that I must have to be aware of my expression.
My parents, were surprised. I know mom likes her and dad too. Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaction ko nang tawagin siyang mommy ni Fash at noong pumayag nama
“Thank you for today, Jerome”. Nakangiti kung saad dito. Nag presenta itong ihatid ako at ngayon ay nasa harap na kami ng apartment. Nakita kung nakasilip ang kapatid ko mula sa bintana ng kanyang kwarto.“Hindi ba, awkward?”. Natatawa nitong tanong at humarap sakin. "Sorry".“Hindi naman… Ayus lang siguro, darating din naman ang mga araw na kailangan naming mag-usap dahil sa kanya naman ako nag tratrabaho, mabuti narin yung ganito. Masanay siya sa presensiya ko”. Pabiro kung saad.“Sabagay… Can I have your number?”. Saad nito habang inaabot ang kanyang cellphone.“Sure”.Nag binalik ko na ang kanyang cellphone ay dinig kung tumunog ang cellphone ko. Napatingin ako dito. Unknown.“Save mine’’. Saad nito ng nakangiti.“Thank you, ulit.. wag ka nang lumabas baka ma issue pa tayo”. Natatawa kung saad.“I won’t let th
Waje My son is now giggling because of excitement. When was the last time we eat in the restaurant? We often eat lunch here in my office or in my parents home. When Matias called me earlier whileI was having a meeting and said that Fash is requesting to see me and have lunch together, I agreed right away. Thinking that Paige would be eating with us, that is why I told him that Paige is in my office since his asking earlier if he can see her. Now he cannot contain his happiness. Alanganin akong tumingin kay Paige. “Ah! Sir, babalik na po ako sa office”. Saad nito. Nabigla naman ako dahil akala ko kasama naming siyang aalis. Bago pa ako nakapag salita ay nagsalita na si Fash na ngayon ay nasa harapan niya. “Mom! I thought were going to eat lunch outside”. Fash said. He voiced the question I want to ask. “I still have work to do, tska may ipapagawa atah si daddy mo kaya ako andito”. Nakangiti nitong pahayag
Paige I'm still indazed after our lunch. I have so many things in mind. I really can't believe that I talk about marriage in front of him and not to mention that my ex son is calling me 'mom'. I can't! What on earth did I do wrong? I've been abroad for a long time to avoid any possible things that I can do in order to make him remember me, and now here I am. In the company where he owned and to think that we are engage before his accident hurt me so much, I guess I am still hurting all this years. I just ignore it or I just stored it in my heart. Hindi ko inaasahan ang mga nangyayari. Now that I can see and talk to him without having an argument is new to me. His been avoiding me since his discharge from the hospital and our last talk was when I finnally give in, no... I never give him up... my family needed me. Thinking about the things that we've been through I guess his happy marrying Amanda and having Fash as his son. Wala nam
A bouquet of red roses welcomed me early in the morning at my new work space. I picked up the note tag. Nami my assistant is also picking."Dumating yan kanina ma'am, ang sabi galing daw kay Mr. Eleazer. Unang beses to ma'am na nagpadala ng bulaklak si sir sa staff." Tela nagtataka nitong saad.‘Congratulation! Welcome to Fash Hotel- Waje’I stared at the flower for a second. I can’t understand him really. After our lunch last week and his text messages, we didn’t talk after that. Hanggang ngayon ay wala parin akong idea kung ano ba ang gusto nitong sabihin sakin.My memo came last Friday and now I am here at Fash Hotel as Human Resource, far from my job description. Pero bakit pa ba ako mag rereklamo. Bahagya akong nagulat ng may kumatok. Kakalabas lang ni Nami, may nakalimutan ba ito?“Pasok”. Sagot ko habang inaayus ang mga nakapatong na dokumento sa table ko.“Hi!” A baritone
I still can't believe that we eat lunch like we used to lunch together, but still I felt awkward towards him. I don’t know what he up to and I’m afraid to ask him.7 long years and here we are sitting face to face, glancing each other without saying a word. I know him, he wants to ask me something. Alam na ba niya? O baka naman naalala na niya? Bigla akong kinabahan sa naisip. Paano nga kung naalala na niya ako kaya ganito ito sa akin ngayon?I almost drop my glass thinking of that. Napatingin ito sakin kaya naman nag iwas agad ako ng tingin.“I’m sorry”. Maiksi kung saad.“Are you okay?’’ Tanong nito. “Don’t you like the food? I’m sorry sana pala inantay nakita bago-“No!”. I cut him off and smile. “I’m fine really!”. Tango ko dito.“Can I ask something?”. Lakas loob kung sabi at humikhim para magkaroon ng sapat na lakas
Waje“Are you sure who will put Paige as an HR in Fash Hotel?”. Samuel still in shock. He’s been nagging about this for a minute now and honestly I don't see any problem with it.“What is the problem with that?”.“Problem? Sa tingin mo ba di niya mahahalata na ang layo kaya ng inaaplyan niya sa posisyon na mapupuntahan niya”. He said while shaking his head. “Why don’t you put her in your company promotional team?”.I nod to agree, but I have something in mind.“Or should I put him in my office instead?”. Sagot ko naman dito. I saw his eyes widen in fraction.“Wait…dude!”. Natatawa nitong saad. “You’re kidding right?”.“I can do that”. Kibit balikat ko.“You are not doing that”.“You bet”. I then smirked at him.Tumawa ito ng malutong.“Tell m
Chapter 24WajeAfter lunch agad din itong nagpaalam. Aalis na din sana ako but I remember that I didn’t tell her about the wedding in Batangas. I was about to go to her office when I saw her talking with someone…its Jerome? I thought he should be traveling to Singapore today?Her assistant saw me, but I signed to her it’s okay and I’ll just go.I saw how they are comfortable with each other, touching and talking and laughing.I guess they are right, she can lift up easily a heavy mode.As Amanda describes her, she’s like a darling of the crowd. No wonder I followed her around but I am still curious how I court her, did it last long? I never court Amanda because our parents set us up.But I didn’t remember even in my teenage days that I admire a bubbly woman, I find them overacting or maarte. I don’t like woman like that. Amanda is sociable person, she likes gathering and bragging about her l
PaigeSinundo ako ni Perrie kaya naman naisipan na din naming mamili para sa araw-araw na kailangan.“Te, my out of town nanaman kami sa susunod na araw. 2 days yun te.” Saad nito habang nag dra-drive.“It’s okay”. Sagot ko naman. Sanay na akong laging wala si Per bukod sa graduating na ito madami na ding booking ang grupo nila.“Inaalala ko wala kang kasama”.“Sanay na ako”. Natatawa kung saad dito. Alam kung nag aalala parin ito.“By the way, we’re invited to the wedding anniversary ng Grandparents ni Fash Tyler”. Balling nito sa akin.“Yeah! Tutugtug ka?”.“Oo… nakakatuwa nga si Fash kasi ang bilis matuto.”Ngiti lang ang isinukli ko dito.“And…hey!”.Nagulat ako sa bigla nitong pagbaling sakin.“Careful Per!”. Gulat kung saad.“I saw y
