Embracing the Sea

25

A/N: Sorry for the grammatical errors.

I am busy reading and analyzing files early in the morning. Maaga akong pumasok ngayon dahil sa late ko noong nakaraan, ayokong  maulit yon kaya bumawi ako. My days before are not actually like this, kaunti nga lang ang trabaho ko pero dahil araw ngayon ng  audition ay ganito ang nangyayari.

Other than being a director of the marketing department, Leif give me a secret job and this also have a salary. Naniniwala daw kasi siyang magaling akong pumili ng mga taong  may potensyal when ut comes to music.

Back when I was starting nakita ko ang way nila ng pag o-audition and I must say that it's incredibly good but the issue is they're not good at picking who's good or who's not.

That's why when I suggest someone, that person became  hit and is now paving the whole music industry here in the country. A smile crept in my lips when I remember thise times.

Binalik ko nalang ulit ang atensyon ko sa binabasa dahil kailangan kong matapos ito ngayon. While I'm busy analyzing, Joan enter my office.

She has this glee of emotions in her eyes. "Ma'am the meeting room is ready," she said and I just nod at her.

Inayos ko na ang mesa ko at nilinis, I don't want to enter my room with full of dirt. Pagkatapos ay agad din akong lumabas, sinamahan ako ni Joan pero wala kaming imikan.

The meeting will tackle about the new project na naisip ni Leif kaya hindi ako magtataka kung nandoon si Amina at Glaze, well sigurado din akong naroon si Mine.

As I enter the meeting room I see all the board members talking to each other and some are laughing, I look around and see Amina and Toff sitting  next to each other.  Hindi nila ako makikita dahil nasa likod nila ako, habang si Maddux naman ay kinakausap si Mine.

Lalakad na sana ako pero napahinto ako ng tawagin ako ni Mine, sobrang lakas pa ng sigaw nito kaya ang buong atensyon ay napunta sakin.

I wear a glazed expression to show that I'm serious, while I'm walking I can feel the tension of some board members and staffs. Gusto ko mang iikot ang mata ko ay hindi pwede, they know me as the terror and savage director.

They thought that they can pull their jokes on me because I'm just new, but little did they know I'm a dark joke. Ayokong ipakita sa kanila ang totoong ako dahil sa mundo hindi mo pwedeng ipakita ang lahat lahat tungkol sayo dahil gagamitin nila yon sayo.

Minsan mas magandang makita ka nila bilang isang kontrabida kesa makita ka nila bilang isang anghel na pwede nilang lokohin. I don't want to create the same mistakes I did from my past.

I sat beside Mine and I'm in front of Amina — which is the reason she is giving me a scornful face. Hindi ko siya pinansin at agad na tinanguan si Leif.

The meeting has started but I know that my mind is not paying attention to it, hindi mapigilan ng  mata kong sulyapan ang katabi ni Amina.

I look up to stole a glance at him but immediately looked away when I see him looking at me too, pinilit ko ang sarili kong tumingin sa presentation.

Napapalunok ako kapag nakikita ko ang mukha niya sa isip ko, he's wearing a black tuxedo and it fits on him.

Shit Aishen! Nasa harap ang presentation wala sa kabilang sulok!

I remind myself, because I really want to stare at him.

The meeting ended pero wala naman akong isang narinig, it looks like I'm listening but definitely I'm not. I almost sigh when remembering what's running on my mind.
