We are here on the 58th floor, this is where they will meet sir kalix and Mr. Falexo.
I was just sitting here in the meeting area writing down what they were talking about sir kalix and Mr.Falexo.
"So ... how was it Mr. Slyvestre?" Mr. Falxo said "I don't like it." Sir kalix said without emotion.
"H-huh but Mr. Slyvestre it's more beautiful if we buy that beach resort, you saw how beautiful that place is." Mr.falexo said for a long time.
Sir Kalix and I were talking about the resort in Palawan, he was beautiful and the only case was that he was a very hidden place.
Sir kalix looked at me so I was overwhelmed with nervousness "Ms. Delvuesta what do you think?" Why don't I know anything about that "S-sir?" Because of the shock that's all that came out of my mouth.
"What do you say about that beach resort, you can suggest." I'm still hesitant if I will speak.
"But Mr. Slyvestre she's just your secretary she do—."
"I'm waiting Ms. Delvuesta." Sir kalix's promise was mixed with annoyance.
"Ahmm..Mr.Falexo m-the place you chose is beautiful, that beach resort is wide and beautiful, but it's a very far and secluded place, tourists can't see it if it's in the most hidden place."
"Besides, the price of the beach resort is very expensive, maybe no tourists will go, it's already far away and the price is still expensive." I promised Mr. Falexo again.
"What are you implying Ms. Delvuesta." He promised me firmly, as if he could hurt you because of what I said.
I was scared of his face because this tiger is so mad at you, it's like he's going to bite me, he's scared.
"All I want to say is Mr. Falxo, he's very expensive and very conceited, there's a lot better there than the pin -." He cut me off.
"Do you think I care what you're saying, you're just a secretary here not a boss !!?" Mr.falexo shouted angrily at me.
I'm nervous, I want to cry, I didn't say anything bad, I just suggested like sir kalix said, if he doesn't like what I suggested, he can talk to me without shouting.
“You have no right to raise your voice to her, get out !!” Sir Kalix said angrily and stood up and approached me.
“But — No more buts Mr.Falexo this meeting is done, all of you, you can leave now !!” Cutting off what Mr.Falexo was going to say so the people inside except for Mr.Falexo left.
“Why are you standing, I said get out !!” Sir kalix shouted angrily, Mr. Falxo looked at me slightly and his eyes seemed to indicate something.
"We're not done yet, Ms. Delvuesta." Mr. Falvuesta told me weakly enough for me to hear, I just bowed because of nervousness.
I listened to his footsteps as he left, I was still in my seat bent over because Mr. Falexo was angry with me and sir kalix was even talking to him.
I felt a palm of sir kalix caressing my neck.
“Are you okay?” Sir Kalix asked worriedly, I looked at him and smiled before nodding.
"Yes sir kalix, s-sorry for what I did, I didn't — It's okay you don't need to say sorry, it's not your fault."
I'm here now at sir kalix's mansion, all I can think about is sir and ma'am sheena this mansion turned out to be sir kalix ma'am and sir just took a vacation here they said they just missed their son, tomorrow they will leave they will return to France because they also have a business there.
It's 3:45 pm now, sir kalix sent me home so that I wouldn't have to think about what Mr. Falelo was telling me earlier, I would have refused because I didn't feel that way and besides, sir kalix needs me because I'm his secretary but he doesn't have me allowed so I don't yell anymore my boss he's my employee.
I'm already bored here in my room when I just woke up, I miss my mother and youngest I want to call them but at this time I know how much they are doing.
I'm just rolling a tire here inside boryong boryong that I, what can be good to do.
"Aha! I'm just going to go around the whole mansion. I don't even know how to get around here." I promised myself that we would go to bed together.
I was already downstairs, as I was walking towards the back of this mansion my eye caught Fye, I quickly went to it.
"Fye!" I shouted when he was about to turn, he stopped walking and looked at me "Oh kia, why?" He said approaching me.
“Do you have anything else to do?” I wanted him to accompany me around the whole mansion.
"Nothing, I just finished work, why do you need anything?"
"Hmm..can you accompany me on a tour of the whole mansion? I haven't toured yet." I looked outside at the same time.
"Ahh that's all, of course let's start." He said "Sure you have nothing to do I might disturb you." Making sure to promise fye.
"What are you done with my work, come on and don't act." I nodded here and we walked around the whole mansion at the same time.
I just rolled my eyes for the next time I go here I already know if saad will come out.
I saw someone gardening “Fye we are there I want to see the plants.” When I called fye, he nodded.
"The flowers are beautiful." With a smile, we are already here with the flowers, there are so many fun flowers and they are also colorful.
"Man, what's the name of this flower?" He is violet with white if you look at him like a pharaoh.
"It's a pansy flower sister, she's beautiful." I nodded at what she said, it's a pansy flower, I've already read it, it means something.
"Isn't the pansy flower a symbol of love." I said, my mother told me this, my mother had told me before that my father gave my mother a pansy flower, so my mother wanted it because of subrang ganda.
“Yes sister, how did you know that?” I smiled at her. “Mom said, do you want to know what it means?” I asked them, and they both nodded.
"This Pansy Flower symbolizes emotional love. You can give a Pansy flower to almost anyone you love in your heart." They just listened to what I was saying so I continued my story.
"The perfect gift for a mother, partner, or friend, it is best used as a symbol of platonic love. Pansies can also represent free thought and consideration." I promise at length. theirs.
"That's what that means kia, it's great." Fye applauded, my mother just told me that.
"Your mother is right ma'am kia." I smiled at her while looking at the pansy flower, she looked so beautiful.
Fye and I are here now at the swimming pool, the swimming pool is here behind the mansion, it is said to be 20ft deep, fye told me.
We just walk fye’s walk until we’ve toured the entire mansion.
Now I know that the roundabout here in the mansion will never get me lost.
I looked at fye while he was talking. He was happy with fye, he was talkative and also happy. I immediately remembered my brother who was talkative and he was also happy, the type you can't run out of topics.
Fye must have noticed that I had been looking at him before. "Are you talking to me? So—" I immediately interrupted what he said.
"It's okay fye I just remembered something, it's okay for me to be talkative." He smiled at the promise.
“Daughters !!” Fye turned to manang when he called us, we approached his place.
"Why ?" Fye and I promised at the same time, we looked at each other first and then just laughed, and manang also laughed.
"You two are really mine, oh he's the one now that they're leaving ma'am and sir come especially because ma" am is looking for you. "Now that they're leaving I'll be there tomorrow, fye and I nodded and at the same time once walked.
"Bye ma'am sir, be careful."
"Bye ma" am shee, sir lix. "
We shouted goodbye to ma'am and sir lixter, they were already in the car.
We waved when the taxi driver started the engine, they also waved back at us and the taxi started running, we waited for the taxi to disappear from our sight before we went inside.
"By the way manang." Manang stopped walking when I spoke "Does sir kalix know that ma'am sheena and sir lixter have left?" Manang nodded at me.
"Of course, every time they leave the Philippines, sir, they say goodbye to señorito first." Patango tango kung saad.
"All right, sister, I'll leave you there first and I'll cook what we can eat later." My ears were touched by what I heard, and I smiled in no time.
I barely looked at manang with a big smile, his forehead furrowed at my behavior.
"Hehehe , can I help with the cooking since I don't do anything." I hope my miss agrees to cook as much as he does.
"Are you sure you might do something." hesitated.
"Yes, I'm sure manang please." I rolled my puppy eyes and blushed slightly, manang just shook me. "All right, come on." I smiled and went into the kitchen first.
“HAHAHA who made you cry kia?” Alliyah laughed, I didn't answer and wiped my tears and sniffed.
"HAHA you made kia cry so much." Fye said because manang was still with him, manang kicked them both, so I laughed at him.
"You two stop there and you two go ahead and cut the onion. Let's see if you don't cry." .
Yes, I'm cutting onion for marinated chicken, it's said to be sir kalix's favorite dish, I've been crying before because the onion is so bad because it's too big for the eyes.
"Is that all right for me so you can see I won't cry." Alliyah said arrogantly while grabbing a knife from me, I gave it to her.
"Just wash the chicken there." Alliyah ordered so I followed it.
While I was cleaning the chicken I heard someone laughing so I turned my attention to those who were laughing, that's how I laughed when I saw that alliyah's eyes and nose were red and that's how I laughed at this crying.
He used to say that he would not cry and now he can hardly see anything because of the tears blocking his eyes.
"HAHAHAHA." Loud if you laugh "You said alliyah you won't cry why are you crying, who fought with you."
"Don't laugh at me!" He shouted at the same time handing me a knife. "Oh there you go, I can't cut it anymore."
We laughed at the departed alliyah "She said she won't cry HAHA." Fye laughed so we laughed again this time with manang susan.
"Oh he's right to laugh, and hurry up there to make the cooking easier." We immediately went back to him we were doing.
I'm already spooning a dish, we just finished cooking adobong chicken, manang is delicious to cook adobo.
"Fye get a plate and maybe señorito will come." Manaag said to fye "Opo manang." He answered back.
While preparing sir kalix's food, we heard a car horn.
Beep! Beep! Beep!
Indication that sir kalix was already there, we quickly arranged and told him what he was doing.
"Where's kia?" I immediately heard my name from sir kalix. "It's in the kitchen señorito." I heard a maid say.
I was nervous because sir kalix was looking for me, I just took some water and drank it to somehow reduce my nervousness.
“Kia!” I immediately confronted sir kalix when he mentioned my name again.
He just kept going straight while not taking his eyes off me
“B-why sir kalix?” Nervously, when he approached me, he grabbed my hand and without warning walked to the table and pulled me to a chair.
Astonished I looked at him, why did he pull me out of the chair?
"Sit down, eat with me." Anas said, I would have complained in case he glared at me so I did nothing but sit and accompany him.
Sir kalix and I were eating quietly, we were the only two in the kitchen because the babysitters left here and manang also left.
The quiet surroundings were broken when sir kalix said "Are you okay now? Are you still thinking what happened in the morning hmm?" I smiled and shook my head.
"I'm fine sir — Gideon, call me gideon and drop that." He interrupted what I was going to say.
"But sir—" I just closed my mouth when he looked at me, I thought he didn't want to call him by the name Gideon.
"I'm fine G-gideon and besides I don't think about what happened this morning, I don't feel it." For a long time, he nodded at what I said.
Then when I said that word, we were surrounded by silence again and nothing broke it.
I'm here now outside sir kalix's mansion ventilating I haven't been visited by drowsiness.
I lay down on the grass and looked up at the sky.
What can mother and youngest do there, maybe they are already asleep I said in my mind. We sleep there early because we don't have television because we are just poor.
"What are you doing here, It's cold here go inside." I sat down because of the appearance of sir este ni gideon, I looked up here because he was standing and I just sat.
He smiled and shook his head, "I'm not getting cold and the sky is beautiful." I promised to lie down on the grass again, I was surprised when I felt a cloth on my body, I looked at it, a blanket.
I looked at Gideon because he gave it to me. "Use that, you might get cold and get sick." I did nothing but use the blanket that Gideon gave me.
"Why are you still awake." Gideon and I said at the same time, we looked at each other so our eyes met but I immediately avoided.
I laughed softly because earlier I was with fye and now I was with gideon, I heard him laugh softly.
“You go first.” Gideon said at the same time next to my seat so I moved a little.
"I'm not sleepy yet and I'm also thinking about mother and youngest, why are you awake?" Back when asked, he sighed and looked at the galaxy so I also looked at the galaxy.
"Same as you I'm still not sleepy and I'm also thinking something."
“What are you thinking?” I asked again.
"About people who want to overthrow and destroy me." Want to destroy and overthrow Gideon why.
“Huh why would they do that to you?” I wondered if I asked.
He first took a deep breath and then looked at me "Maybe they're jealous because I'm rich and they want to overthrow me to get everything I have to work for." He said at length.
Maybe it's because they are jealous that they hurt each other but they can not do that ah everyone goes through hardships if they try to work maybe they will also be rich like Gideon.
“How about you, what are you thinking?” I looked at Gideon when he asked.
“I'm just thinking about my mother and youngest, I miss them even though I've only been here for three days I want to hug them again, I'm wondering if they're okay there can they eat at the right time, because I can't help but remember them. ”My speech was tinged with sadness.
"I know that your mom and brother are in good condition, jesus will never leave them."
I smiled at him because he said, it's right to know if the lord won't let them know if he will take care of my family.
I just can't really avoid not worrying about them because my mother might have a heart attack and I'm not there. I don't want to make it difficult for the youngest. open to make sure they are just fine.
No one spoke so we were enveloped in silence, Gideon and I just looked at the sky, the beauty of the stars as well as the moon was super bright.
I'm just wondering maybe if daddy is still alive maybe I'll see his face, who among us or the youngest looks like daddy.
While I was thinking, I noticed that Gideon was quiet so I looked at it, as if he was also thinking because he didn't realize that I was looking.
I turned my gaze back to the sky, in my view suddenly a wishing star/falling star passed by.
They said that when someone sees a wishing star or a falling star, you will wish and your name will come true, that's what the elders said, I'm not sure I'll lose anything if I try.
I closed my eyes and asked “Wishing star, I hope you fulfill my wish that my mother would be healed and that the pain in her body would be eliminated.” I asked if at the same time as my eyes awoke.
“What is your wish?” I was surprised when Gideon spoke. “Secret, they said don't tell others what you asked, maybe it won't come true.” I was shocked when he messed up my hair.
"Do you really believe that your wish will not be fulfilled when you tell others what you wish for?" I nodded "Yes, I will probably lose nothing if I believe."
I looked at Gideon "Why don't you believe?"
"I'm not and don't ask why I don't believe that." This promise was rude, I just didn't ask why because he said don't ask me anymore.
A few minutes of silence prevailed as my neighbor broke it.
"Since you're still not sleepy, can you tell me about your life?" I looked at him and nodded.
I am the eldest of two siblings and I have a youngest brother, my mother has been single for a long time because she said she was dead. I asked her why my father died but she always said "long story son" so no that I asked more because I knew that and that was all he would say. ”I stopped first and then looked at the sky.
"My brother is still in his first year of collage. Every time he comes home, he goes to our neighbor's house to fetch water. That's his job. Somehow he earns ten per bucket, so if you fetch two, they will give you twenty," my mother has heart disease, we took her to the doctor and the doctor said that my mother should have an operation so that her illness would not get worse. ” I repeat my story.
“So I ended up here in Manila to find a job so that my mother could have an operation and so that the youngest could have an allowance, it's okay for me that I'm the one who's in trouble, not just the two of them, I'm very grateful to Gideon especially to your parents because you gave I have a job and I live here in your mansion. ”I looked at him and smiled.“ Thank you very much sir kalix, you fell from the sky with us. ”
He smiled, I was surprised because he was warm because they said fye and alliyah sir kalix didn't smile, he always said he had a poker face so I was really surprised.
Actually, it's more appropriate for sir kalix to have a handsome smile there, unlike the poker face, he's handsome in case it's scary to look at.
"That's nothing for me, maybe it's just a coincidence." Sir kalix said, sir kalix also had a point but my family and I fell for him.
I just smiled here to indicate that he was right. "Hmm, you're right, tell me about your life." I promised sir kalix.
He barely looked at me, my forehead furrowed because he acted as if he was shocked by what I said.
"You are the only first person who asks me that." Anas said sir kalix, was he so shocked by what I said because I was the first to ask about his life.
Maybe that's why no one asks him that because you will get angry I said in my mind.
I was nervous when I thought "Ahm .... g-gideon w-don't just s-answer."
"No, that's okay, I really want you to be the only person to ask me." Saad ni sir kalix.
Sir kalix seems interested in telling me about his life, I won't lose anything if I listen, am I the one who asked?
I smiled and nodded, sir kalix also smiled and took a deep breath.
"Honestly, Mommy sheena and daddy lixter are not my biologically parents, They just adopted me." First that came out of sir kalix's mouth, he thought they weren't really parents ma'am sheena.
“My real mom died when she took me out of her womb, mommy sheena was also going to give birth then, so she was rushed to the hospital, when they arive in the hospital her child died so mommy sheena can’t stop crying so daddy lixter make a way to make mommy sheena stop crying.When daddy lixter found out that a pregnant woman had died he went to my real mother and when he saw me he wanted to adopt me. ”Trace in his voice the sadness, I hugged it somehow made her feel better, we were already sitting so I hugged her without difficulty.
He was surprised when I hugged him, but he didn't let me know that he was surprised. I don't know why I hugged him maybe I just wanted to ease his heart.
“They don’t know who is my biogical father that’s why they adopted me, when my real mom died no one who attended on her last night, so mommy sheena and daddy lixter give me a name and they make me feel that I am not alone that they're always here when I need them. ”He stopped what he was saying and looked straight into my eyes, so I could see his black eyes up close.
"I'm so thankful because I have parents like them they always give what I want but when I was 15 years old." Saad niya tsaka ngumiti sakin "I no longer asked them for money, I was looking for a good job and saved up until I was able to build a huge company. I lived without asking for any help from those who adopted me. ”He said a long story, wow, sir kalix is great.
“Hmm gideon, why do you avoid women so much?” Asking if promised.
"Because I'm afraid to love again, I don't want to experience what happened before but when you came I knew in myself that you were different from the women I met." my heart.
I feel like I'm in pain in my heart, why does the speed seem to be chased by ten horses I promise in my mind.
I didn't ask any more questions and maybe what else could he say and mess up my brain.
"How about you? Do you have a boyfriend, ex?" I looked at what she said. "I haven't had a boyfriend yet."
He smiled secretly "That's good."
“H-huh?” I was surprised to see it.
"Nothing, let's go inside it's already 10 in the midnight we have a work tomorrow." He promised me, of course and I still have a job tomorrow.
I nodded and stood up and shook my clothes, he did the same.
"I'll go first Gideon, thank you for coming with me here." Anas said, he nodded and I started to get stronger I peeked at it first but he was no longer there "His speed."
I went to the kitchen first because I was thirsty, I would have taken a glass at the top of the refrigerator in case I couldn’t reach so I took a chair so I could reach.
When I got a chair and brought it to the opposite side of the refrigerator, I climbed on the chair and it would have taken someone with an arm to hold my waist as support so that I wouldn't fall and his other hand was holding the glass I was going to hold.
I couldn't move because of our position now, little by little when I faced who this person was behind me when I faced him, I was just so shocked to know who it was.
"What are you doing, do you want to fall?"
"Because I'm thirsty and I can't reach the glass so I took a chair." I said while the others were looking, it was embarrassing because he was staring at me while I was talking.
"Next time, ask for help when you can't reach, what if you fall? What if your bone is broken?" He preached to me.
"I'm sorry, I can't do it again."
He grabbed my waist so he grabbed me by his shoulder width as I got down he handed me the glass and without warning left the kitchen.
I took a deep breath when he left, I opened the refrigerator and took water and poured it into my glass, I put the jug back in the refrigerator and drank the water I put in my glass.
When I finished what I was drinking, I washed the glass I used and climbed to the top to wash my body and to go to sleep.
Here I am in front of the door of my room, I turned the door handle and went inside and went straight to the bathroom to brush my teeth and wash my body.
My body was soaking in the bathtub and feeling the water in my body.
A few minutes before I thought of leaving the bathroom and getting dressed because I still have a job, I don't want to lose weight.
I'm here in my bed now because I've finished washing my body, I'll text my mother before I go to sleep.
To: Mother
-Goodnight mom/youngest, I can be with you too so let's just be patient now.
10:45 pm
When I sent it, I decided to go to sleep but that's how I frowned remembering what happened earlier in the kitchen.
Sir Kalix's looks in my eyes are like someone is saying that I can't figure out what it is, I also don't know why every time his skin touches my body it's like I feel electricity, I'm not in pain, am I? .
I was just shaken by my thoughts, maybe it was just my imagination.
I arranged my bed and started to fall asleep, even though I was confused by what happened in the kitchen earlier trying to fall asleep.
I succeeded so little by little I closed my eyes until I fell asleep.
