Almost Perfect / Simon Marcos Fanfic

Simon POV

I cannot believe I'm working with that girl. My blood boils everytime I see her. Well, she's lucky to have me as her boss, I'm going to make sure she'll regret working with me.

"Hi Simon!" Ate Carmela greets, entering my office.

"Oh hi Ate, what brings you here?" I ask.

"Sir bong said you're in charge for today, kase aalis sya for a meeting and nga pala if you need anything you can tell it to Daphne" She informs.

"Daphne? Who's Daphne?" I ask. I don't know anyone name's Daphne.

She laugh. "Ano ka ba, si Secretary"

Oh so her name's Daphne. "Oh I see, ate when you go out will you tell her to come here in my office I need her to do something for me, Thanks"

"Sige bye" She said as she exits my office.

Let's see how long your patience is, Daphne.

Daphne POV

I'm doing some thanksgiving letter for Sir BBM's invitation in the different events he's invited to when suddenly Atty Carmela came.

"Hi gurl, kamusta?" She ask.

"Ayos lang po ma'am, may kailangan po kayo?" I politely ask.

"Ah ako wala, pero si Simon meron, punta ka daw sa office nya" She informs. She noticed my smile fades away the moment I hear his name.

"Oh bakit ganyan mukha mo?"

"Ah wala ma'am may naalala lang" I force a smile. Ano kaya iuutos nun?

I went my way to his office and softly knock. "Come in" He says.

I open the door and find him busy in front of his laptop on his desk. "Sir pinapatawag nyo po ako" I said.

"Yes, I need 5 pages of this, will you please photo copy it" He says. I took it from him and go to the printer downstairs. I choose photo copy already but it still doesn't work. Sira ba 'to?

"Oh hi sec, Sira yan papaayos pa lang bukas" An employee said.

"Ah ganun ba, sige salamat"

I went back to Simon's office to tell him. "Sir sira po yung printer"

"So?" He ask, frowning. "Ano gusto mo gawin ko?" He ask in an attitude, trying to speak Tagalog but his accent is still there.

"Ah sige Sir, I'll try to find a printing shop na lang po," I calmly said.

"Well you better, that's your job" He said back, I force a smile and close the door.

I put the paper on my face. "Aarghhhhhh!"

I acted to punch his door with his name on it. "Kagigil!"

I breathe calmly. "Relax Daphne, boss mo sya, ang importante ginawa mo trabaho mo" I said to myself while making my way on the ground floor.

I smile to all the employees I meet kahit sobrang naiinis na ako sa boss nila. I went outside and try to look around. Siguro dito sa bandang left side may printing shop. I try to walk and look around until I see some tricycle drivers.

"Hi kuya pwede magtanong, saan po dito may computer shop na nag pprint din po?" I ask.

"Nako ma'am, dun pa po yun, pag lampas nyo po ng kanto, diretso tapos makikita nyo na po yung karatula na kulay blue" One of them informs.

"Ah ganun ba? Salamat kuya".

Ang layo pa, halos 'di ko na matanaw yung building ng headquarters. Anyway, exercise na din naman. I still walk until finally nakita ko na. Hay salamat.

I enter the place and ask for photo copy. " Ma'am saan ka po nagwowork?" The man ask.

"Kay BBM po sa headquarters"

"Oh bakit po nakarating pa kayo dito?" He laugh.

"Bakit po? May mas malapit po ba?"

"Meron, sa right side mga 2 minutes na lakad lang, sa amin din po yun madalas po dun nag papa photo copy si Sir Simon" He informs. Really! And he didn't tell me about it!?

"Ganun po ba? Bago lang po kase ako eh" I laugh awkwardly.

"Sa susunod ma'am dun na lang po kayo, ang layo po dito eh" He says.

I thank him and pay for the photo copy. It took me more than 6 minutes to walk back. I went back to the headquarters and sobrang haggard and hiningal na ako, I even take the stairs kasi nga takot ako sa elevator. I feel like I loose more than 200 calories.

I enter his room and slammed the papers in front of him. I try to catch my breath before ranting.

"What took you so long?" He ask. Wow, grabe ha.

"Teka" I said, trying to breathe. "I walk more than 8 minutes and nalampasan ko na yung dalawang kanto para lang makahanap ng printing shop and meron lang palang mas malapit and I know you know where, pero hindi nyo man lang po sinabi, Sir!" I rant.

He sarcastically smile. "Did you ask? No you didn't, so in that case it's not my fault"

"Sir!? I'm only new here and pwede nyo naman po sabihin sa akin, kahit man lang 'Hoy Daphne, the printing shop is on the right side' oh 'di ba? It's only one sentence-

"Will you please stop, you're just disturbing me on my work, your job is to do that and I'm not part of it," He said in irritation.

Fine. Secretary lang naman ako. "Sige po"

I'm about to leave. "Oh and secretary, will you please order me a caramel macchiato, you make me stressful because of your kapalpakan" He harshly said.

I turn around and fake a smile. "Of course, Sir Simon"

I turn back and roll my eyes, closing the door.

When I get back to my cubicle, I immediately order a coffee and waited for it. As time passes by..

"Sec yung order nasa baba na" The guard informs. I make my way downstairs and pay for it.

I'm about to enter the building when something came to my mind. "Kuya, may extra sugar po ba 'to?" I ask the delivery guy.

"Yes ma'am, dalawa po" He says.

I went to my cubicle first. Hmp akala mo sir Simon ikaw lang? Let's see kung gaano ka sweet.

I put the two sugar and stir it occasionally. I enter his office with a bright smile on my face.

"Sir coffee po" I said as I put it down beside his laptop.

"Finally, I've been waiting for this kanina pa, what took it so long?" He ask in irritation. Aba malay ko ako ba nagtimpla?

"Sir I don't know po, mukha po ba akong taga timpla ng kape?" I joke.

"Do I look like I'm joking?" He stubbornly ask.

I laugh a little. "Bakit nyo pa po tinatanong and nakasimangot na po kayo?"

He took a heavy sigh. "I still can't believe dad hire someone like you" He said.

"Because I'm not like you" I said back confidently.

"What?! What did you say!?" He furiously ask.

"Sir relax, what I mean is, I'm not like you who always take the work seriously, ang sipag nyo po kasi, anyway Sir, enjoy your coffee" I said before exiting his coffee.

He take a sip before I close the door. I lean closer to his door. "What the hell!? Daphne!!" He furiously shouted.

I cover my mouth and silently laugh. "Luh, Sir you should be thankful I make your coffee sweet, 'di ba sweet ko" I said to myself on my way to go back on my working place.

Daphne why ganon? 😬
