Short Prayer Before Work Mga Nobela at Kwento

"Thank You, Lord! Thank You for we could now enjoy electricity-consuming. Tomorrow I would pay our dues. Thank You for blessing Jano with that money. Lord, god, guide me. Protect me tomorrow. I hope I could pay it safely without loss or bad fate. Then, help me in decision-making. I was in chaos. I did not know how to get a job. There are so many vacancies but, I was double-minding. There's always a trouble such as resume/bio-data, picture, fare or the same. You know, God, how much I have longed for a job. Please, Lord, help me. Give me a job. Whatever job will do, as long as it's decent. Thank You! Thank You for everything. Pardon me. Pardon us, the sinners. Amen!"

May emergency daw sa work ni Ziyad kaya hindi na niya ako nasundo pa sa penthouse. Ayos lang naman iyon dahil may sarili naman akong driver. At saka magsisimba din kasi ako. I spent one hour praying. I was asking for guidance from Him. And also I asked Him for signs. Ten am na ako nakarating sa opisina. Hindi ako kumain para lang matapos ang nakatambak na papeles sa aking mesa.

"Dear Lord. Good morning. We are here infront of you. Giving thanks for we are still alive and andito kami ngayon upang pag-usapan ang tungkol sa paparating na event namin. We are needing your help upang makayanan namin ang task na ito. Nagpapasalamat kami dahil binigyan Niyo po kami ng buhay, pamilya, at kaibigan. Sana ay gabayan niyo po kami. Ang lahat ng ito ay pinapasalamatan at inaalay namin sa Iyo Ama. Amen." "In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen." Nagsiupuan ang lahat pagkatapus naming magpray. Hays! Salamat naman at natapus ko rin ng hindi ako nasasablay. At tiyaka hindi rin ako nabulol. Thank you, Lord. "So, our agenda for this meeting ay...,” habang sinusul

Sunod-sunod nang salita nito na tila nagmamadali na rin. "Okay sige, salamat ha!" Alam kong batid niya na naninibago pa ako hinintay pa niyang makabalik ako sa Elevator bago ako tuluyang iniwan. Haysst! Unang araw ko nga pala ngayon kaya kailangan kong magpaimpress. Pero narito pa ako at mukhang nakatakdang ma-depress sa sermon ng secretary ng CEO. "Aleyha, brace yourself kung ayaw mong mawalan agad ng trabaho!" Bulong ko sa aking sarili na medyo napalakas yata.

I was catching my own breath as the elevator started to close. Pawis na pawis na ako dahil sa pagmamadali kahit alam kong sobrang late na ako. I prayed silently na sana hindi ako pagalitan ng boss ko pero alam kong malabong mangyari ‘yon.

Mas mapoprotektahan ko siya ng maayos, lalo na at ang dami niyang iniikot at pinagkakaabalahan. Pagdating ko, nagbatiin at nagkamustahan muna kami bago magsimula ang gawain. Yung tipong simpleng “Good morning” niya pa lang, ramdam ko na agad yung energy niya. Ang gaan. Ang liwanag.

I have a prescribed pills to regulate my menstrations so I even if I have sex everyday I won't get pregnant. Mabilis akong nag-ayos at naghanda para sa trabaho. I eat my breakfast first before going to work. Ang katotohanan na wala ang Ceo sa kompanya ngayon ay nagbibigay sa akin ng halo-halong pakiramdam.

"Gising na, Seph." "Five minutes," he murmured. "I still have work." He groaned, blinking his eyes open. He looked around and paused for a yawn. Napatingin s'ya sa akin at ngumiti. "Good morning, Precious." Namula ako at nag-iwas ng tingin. "Pwede ba? Tumayo ka na riyan at baka mabawasan ang sahod ko."

Noong nakatayo na kami, sumenyas sa akin si daddy na ako ang mag-lead ng prayer. I took a deep breath and nodded, realizing that this was something I could do. As we gathered in the living room, I closed my eyes and began to speak, my voice trembling. "Lord our God, You are great and almighty. We come to You with humble hearts, pleading for Your mercy. Please keep Poppy safe from all harm and bring her back to us safely. We're lost without her. She's the light of my life, and I can't imagine a world without her. Give her strength, wherever she is. And give us the strength to keep hoping, to keep believing that she'll come back to us.”

PEKE. Gusto ko siyang pagsabihan sa ginagawa niya, ngunit hinayaan ko na lamang at tinuon ang aking pagtingin sa pagkain. Kukunin ko na sana ang aking baunan nang pigilan niya ako at paningkitan ng mata. "Baka nakakalimutan mo? Pray before we eat." Napanguso naman ako sa naalala ko. Hindi nga rin pala kami mag-uumpisa sa aming pagkain kapag hindi kami nagdadasal.
