"Sir, naayos ko na yung location
ng meeting nyo with Mr. Hernandez" ni Ivee pagpasok ng opisina ko.
"Saan?"
"Sa Marie'às Hotel, yung
pagmamay-ari ni Ms. Marie"
paliwanag nya naman.
"Bakit doon?" tanong ko pa, I was
expecting that it would be some
Japanese restaurant.
"Doon kasi ang request ng client eh"agad nyang sagot.
"Papalitan ko ba?"dagdag nya.
"Wag na, ako na ang bahala." sagot ko naman at agad na umalis papunta sa Hotel to meet our new clients.
Pagdating ko sa Restaurant, I
immediately saw Marie dining with Lucas but I came here for
business so I decided to focus on it.
My clients are waiting already kaya agad na akong umupo.
This is just a dinner for formalities
after we both made a deal.
"Thank you Mr. Perez, I really know that its worthy making
business with you" pagpupuri sakin ni Mr. Hernandez.
"The pleasure is mine sir and I hope we can do more business in the future"
"Off course!" he gladly said after
finishing our Dinner.
After they left, binayaran ko na ang
bills namin sa cashier andI didn't
expect to bumped into her but she
just walked away na parang wala
lang nangyari.
"Sir. Excuse me, pasensya na baka mas matatagalan pa po ang card nyo, mahina kasi ang signal eh"paliwanag ng Cashier while she's struggling to swipe my card.
"It's okay, just take your time" sagot ko naman.
While waiting, hindi ko mapigilang
huwag mapatingin sa direksyon nya.
I didn't know that watching her like this would satisfy me.
Ilang sandali, she suddenly get dizzy.
Masama ba pakiramdam nya? she
didn't even drink that much and
I remember that she can hold her
drinks well unless somethings
Wrong.
Lucas assisted her kaya lumapit
ako and was trying to offer my help.
"Is everything okay?" tanong ko.
"Mr. Perez! you're here" he said na mukhang nagulat pa.
"Yeah. I was having a dinner with
my cliernt" sagot ko naman while
looking at Marie.
"Marie is not feeling well, she works too much that's why she passed out...may you excuse us?" he said kaya pinadaan ko nalang sila while he's carrying Ellie.
Ilang sandali, I'm really convince
that t something is really wrong.
Pumunta ako sa table na inupuan
nila then I saw an envelope.
Binuksan ko to and I didnt expect
that it was our marriage certificate.
Bakit nya naman dadalhin to sa
isang dinner date diba? this is
not something she'd brag about,
knowing that she's really desperate
for divorce, unless something is
really going on.
And now my instinct is telling
me that there's something wrong
with the wine also. I poured the
remaining wine of Marie's glass on the plate and I saw the drug that haven't dissolve completely kaya hindi na ako nagdalawang isip na sundan sila.
Marie's POV
It's been a week since I met Lucas
but I have no intentions to make any relationship with him. Para syang linta kung makadikit at minsan bigla nalang sumusulpot kahit saan at may dala-dala pang bulaklak.
