Pumasok ako sa trabaho na parang pinag bagsak ng langit at lupa dahil tinapos ko yung buong files na inuwi kasama yung sinend ni Elera sakin.

Dumertso ako sa lamesa ko at nilagay lahat ng gamit na dala ko bago ko kunin yung naka separate na folder na kailangan ni sir para sa bagong investor.

“What are you doing here in my office?”

“AY PESTE!” Gulat akong napatingin sa p***o nang office ni sir ng biglang may nag salita rito.

“I’m asking you.” Ulit na tanong nito bago umupo sa upuan niya.

“Ilalagay ko lang po sana yung papeles sa lamesa niyo.” Sabi rito bago ilapag ang folder sa lamesa nito. “Iyan po yung presentation for investment po para mamaya.” Dugtong na sabi ko rito.

“You may leave.” Sambit nito habang tinitigna yung folder na dala ko.

“Wala po kayong ibang kailangan? Like coffee? Pang pagising lang po sa umaga.” I suggest.

“Just black coffee.” Sambit niya kaya lumabas na ako to get his coffee at para rin sakin of course, I need a coffee to wake me up lalo’t di pwedeng maging lutang ako.

Pumunta ako sa kitchen dito sa loob ng kumpanya para mag timpla. Kumuha lang ako ng dalawang tasa at ng mainit na tubig bago ako nag timpla. Two black coffee yung ginawa ko para sakin at para sa kanya rin.

“Here’s your coffee sir.” Sabi ko kay sir bago ilapag yung kape niya sa lamesa niya.

“Thanks.” Maikli nitong tugon bago bumalik sa pag babasa ng papel.

“May kailangan ka paba?” Tanong nito sakin ng mapansin niya na hindi pa rin ako umaalis sa office niya.

“Matanong ko lang sir, sino po pala si Mr. Evren Sterling?” Tanong ko sa kanya.

“Why?” Balik na tanong nito sakin habang ang mata ay nasa papel pa rin.

“He’s my friend.” Maikling sagot nito sakin.

“Babaero yun sir noh? He call me Ms. Beautiful yesterday.” Sabi ko rito habang naka masid sa paligid nito. “Pero kahit ganon, mukha naman siyang mabait. Bonus na lang yung mukha niya.”Dugtong ko pa.

“Are you done?” Walang ganang tanong nito sakin bago ibaba yung papel na hawak niya kanina bago tumingin sakin. “You may leave. Marami pa’kong dapat ayusin.” Dugtong pa niya.

“Pasensya na po sir. Ang lungkot po kasi nang office niyo e.” Sabi ko sa kanya habang naka kibit balikat.

“Diko hinihingi opinion mo. Labas.” May diin nitong sabi sakin habang nakatingin sa mga mata ko.

“Sure ka sir? Baka kailangan mo nang kau-”

“Labas.” Ulit niya pa.

“Sungit.”Mahinang bulong ko.

“May sinasabi ka?” Tanong niya sakin.

“Wala sir, sabi ko po lalabas na ako. Tawagin niyo nalang po ako kapag kailangan niyo’ko.” Sabi ko rito bago lumabas ng p***o.

Pero shempre dahil makulit ako ay sumilip ako ulit sa p***o nito at tumingin sakanyan.

“Are you sure sir? You don’t need me here?” Asik ko rito.

Masamang tumingin ito sakin kaya sinira kona yung p***o nang tuluyan.

“HOY!” Nagulat ako nang biglang sumulpot si Elera sa table ko.

“Nakakagulat ka lera!” Gulat na sabi ko sa kanya.

“Ganda ng ngiti mo ha? May gusto ka kay sir noh?” Asar na tanong nito sakin.

“Wala noh! Chismosa nito!” Tanggi ko naman bago umupo sa upuan ko.

“Sus! Ang aga-aga ha!”Asik niya pa. “Btw, dahil naka ngiti ka naman na, bigay mo ‘to kay sir. Documents yan for our investors.” Dugtong niya sabay abot ng limang folder.

“Okay, check ko muna ‘to bago ko iabot sa kanya.” Sabi ko sa kanya bago ako nito iwan.

Binuksan ko naman yung isang brown envelope na may lamang sampung long bond paper. Nakasulat doon yung may appointment for investor, yung time, place and yung name.

Nag take down notes ako para sa mga appointment na gaganapin for this week. May kasama na kasing letter yung bawat isang envelope and doon nakalagay yung mga appointment.

Matapos ko itong i-check lahat ay pumasok na ko sa loob para ibigay ang mga envelope na binilin ni Elere sakin.

“Sir, sabi po ni Ms. Elere sakin ibigay ko raw po ito sa inyo para raw ito sa mga investors po ninyo.” Sabi ko bago lumapit dito.

Dala ko rin ang iPad ko kung saan ay doon ko sinulat ang mga schedule ng appointment for this week.

“Here's your schedule for the week, starting with tomorrow. At 8:00 A.M., you have an appointment with Ms. Padilla here at Drevhert Company to discuss the initial proposal for the company's upcoming investment project.

At 9:30 A.M., Ms. Ulises will be arriving for a meeting regarding the financial statements and budget allocation for the next quarter.

At 10:00 A.M., Mr. Castillo is scheduled to meet with you to present the revised investment portfolio and discuss potential partnerships with several international investors.

By 11:00 A.M. you'll be meeting with Mr. Buenvera to review the legal documents and contracts related to our new business acquisition.

At 12:30 P.M Mrs. De Jesus has confirmed her appointment with you to discuss the company's expansion plans and the approval of the proposed operating budget.

In the afternoon, at 2:00 P.M., you'll be attending the Board of Directors' conference meeting. The agenda includes reviewing proposals from potential investors, evaluating the company's financial performance, approving the release of funds for upcoming projects, discussing new investment opportunities, and finalizing the budget allocation for the next phase of the company's expansion.

After the board meeting, you'll have a short briefing with the Finance Department to review the investment reports before the end of the day. Would you like me to reschedule any appointments, or should I keep everything as planned, sir?" Mahabang salaysay ko rito habang nakatingin sa iPad na dala ko.

He closed the file in his hands and looked at me.

"Understood. Keep everything as scheduled. Make sure all the reports, contracts, and investment proposals are on my desk before the first meeting. I don't want any delays."

He paused for a moment before adding,

"And inform the Finance Department to prepare the final budget allocation. I want every figure verified before the board meeting. If any investor requests additional documents, have them ready before they arrive." Sambit nito bago bumalik sa ginagawa niya.

Palabas na ako nang office niya nang mag salita ‘to.

“Be ready. Aalis na tayo mamaya.” Sambit nito.

“Noted sir.”

Lumabas na ako nang office niya para mag-ayos ng mga gamit ko at ma check ang mga folder na nasa lamesa ko dahil baka mamaya ay may makalimutan ako lalo’t marami pa akong gagawin after nito.

Nang maayos kona lahat sakto namang lumabas si sir habang inaayos ang cout na nasa kamay niya.

“Akin na muna yung dala niyo sir.” Sabi ko kaagad dito pag lapit ko. Binigay niya naman yon bago mag lakad. Dumertso kami sa parking lot para maka-alis na.

“Make sure Mr. Umison is there before I arrive. My time is valuable, and I won't tolerate any delays." Ani nito. Kinuha ko kaagad yung phone ko at tinawagan ang secretary nito.

“Hi, goodmorning! We're on our way. We'll arrive in approximately 10 minutes." Sabi ko sa kabilang linya.

“Nandon na raw si Sir.” Sabi ko.

Di naman na ito nag salita kaya binuksan ko nalang yung iPad na dala ko para makalahati ko na yung ibang presentation and documents na kakailanganin for tomorrow.

I wear may reading glass para makapag focus ng maayos habang nasa byahe.

“May schedule ba ‘ko pagkatapos ng 3 PM?” Rinig kong tanong ni Sir sa likod ko.

“After po nang 3 PM schedule niyo sir, wala na po.. Bakit sir? May pupuntahan poba kayo?” Tanong ko habang nakatingin pa rin sa iPad.

“I’m just asking and para na rin maka-uwi ka nang maaga.” Ani nito.

Dina ako sumagot bagkus ay nag focus nalang ako sa ginagawa ko lalo’t marami ito. Feeling ko maraming kape ang kakailanganin ko para matapos lahat ng documents na kailangan bukas.

  • The Secretary Of The Possessive CEO   EPILOGUE

    Darius's POV I used to think the hardest part of loving someone was finding the courage to tell them how much they meant to you. I was wrong. The hardest part was standing in a hospital hallway, still wearing your wedding suit, holding the ring that was supposed to be placed on the finger of the woman you loved. And waiting. Waiting for someone to tell you that everything was a mistake. That the woman you had been waiting for was going to walk through those doors. That she was only delayed because of traffic, because of something unexpected, because of anything other than the truth you were too afraid to imagine. But no one came. Not Avielle. Not Ping. Not even a message. "David." Aciana's voice pulled me away from the hospital doors. She stood beside me, her eyes swollen from crying. "Please, sit down. You've been standing there for hours." I shook my head. "I'll wait here." "David..." "She might come out." I didn't know why I kept saying that. Maybe

    Darius's POVSome people believe that love begins when two people finally meet. Some believe it starts with a simple conversation, a beautiful smile, or a moment when two strangers unexpectedly find themselves looking at each other.But for me, love started long before I even knew what it meant.It started when I was just a little boy, standing on the side of the street, watching a little girl play with the other children.A little girl with beautiful eyes, pretty dimples, and a laugh that could easily make someone forget whatever was bothering them.A little girl who didn't even know that someone was already falling for her.And that little girl was Avielle.My Avi.---I was young when I first met her.I couldn't remember the exact date, but I could still remember how she looked that day.She was playing with the other kids, running around without caring about how messy her hair had become. Her little hands were covered in dirt, and her cheeks were slightly red because of how much s

    The wedding is finally here. After all the long days, sleepless nights, endless meetings, and weeks of preparations, ito na ako ngayon. Nasa harap ako ng malaking salamin habang inaayusan ni Eli. I could barely recognize myself. Not because I looked different, but because everything felt so surreal. I was finally wearing the dress I've always dreamed of. The dress that I had carefully chosen months ago, the one I had imagined myself wearing countless times whenever I thought about my wedding day. And today, it was finally happening. "I can't believe it, darling." Halata sa boses ni Eli ang excitement habang ramdam ko ang dampi ng makeup brush niya sa mukha ko. "Believe what? Na ikakasal ang taong unang nangarap?" natatawa kong sagot sa kanya. "Yes! Parang last year lang, ikaw ang nag-aayos sa akin noong ikakasal ako, and now? Ikaw naman ang inaasikaso ko." Napansin kong bahagyang nanginig ang kamay niya habang inaayos ang blush sa pisngi ko. I looked at him through

    After ng sunod-sunod na preparations kahapon, nagdesisyon muna kaming magpahinga dahil bukas pa ulit ang schedule namin. We still needed to visit the reception venue and the church kung saan gaganapin ang kasal. Marami pa kaming kailangang i-check, kaya kahit gusto ko nang tapusin lahat agad, kailangan ko ring matutong magpahinga.Hindi naman biro ang wedding preparation. Akala ko noong una, simpleng pagpili lang ng venue, pag-aayos ng decorations, at paglista ng mga bisita ang kailangan naming gawin. Pero habang tumatagal, mas marami akong nadidiskubreng kailangang asikasuhin. May mga bagay na kailangan pang baguhin, may mga supplier na kailangang kausapin, at may mga desisyong hindi puwedeng basta-basta gawin.At kahit na si Darius ang unang nag-asikaso ng ilang bagay habang nasa work pa siya, gusto ko pa ring maging involved sa lahat. After all, kasal naming dalawa iyon. Gusto kong kapag dumating ang araw na iyon, alam kong pareho kaming may naging parte sa bawat maliit na detalye.

    After several exhausting months of working, handling business matters, attending meetings, and making sure that everything was running smoothly, I could finally say that I deserved a break.And not just an ordinary break.A well-deserved leave.For the past few months, halos hindi na ako nagkaroon ng pagkakataong makapagpahinga nang maayos. Every day was filled with responsibilities, unexpected problems, and endless things that needed my attention. There were times when I barely had enough time to finish my meals, and there were even days when I would bring my work home just to make sure that everything was completed.But thankfully, everything had finally settled down.The launch of our newest necklace collection had been successful, the international orders were already being processed, and our business partners were satisfied with the progress of Melzina.Of course, that didn't mean there were no more responsibilities waiting for us. There would always be something to take care of,

  • The Secretary Of The Possessive CEO   Chapter 104

    Pagkatapos ng successful launch na naganap last time, hindi ko inaasahan na ganoon karami ang magiging orders na matatanggap namin. Halos hindi na nga magpahinga ang customer service team dahil sunod-sunod ang pumapasok na inquiries, orders, at emails mula sa iba't ibang customers.It was overwhelming, honestly.Pero kahit nakakapagod, hindi ko maitatangging masaya ako sa naging resulta. Seeing how people appreciate something that our team worked so hard to create was already rewarding enough.The new necklace collection was finally getting the attention we had hoped for.Mula nang matapos ang livestream, hindi na halos natigil ang notifications sa company accounts namin. May mga customers na nagtatanong tungkol sa availability, may ilan namang gustong magpa-reserve, at mayroon ding mga nagtatanong kung available ba ang necklace for international shipping.Hindi lang ordinary customers ang nagpakita ng interest. Even some of our business partners and investors were already reaching ou
