Lust Actually

Chapter 9

Gin's POV continuation

"Hey Gin, we're here!" kaway ni Janice.

It suddenly took me awhile before I hurried to their table. The woman with Janice is so pretty and from her looks nanggaling sa mayamang angkan. I guess, im bad reading random people. She smile at me after noticing that I was looking at her amazed. And speaking of boobs., she has this I think a C cup size, palong palo 'ika nga ng mga lalaki. But I don't like the way she dress, masyado nyang ini-emphasize yung size ng breasts nya. I still love my size anyway. I took other seat across from her.

"Gin, this Daphne my close friend. She's the one I am talking about awhile ago. She's going to have lunch with us. Hope you don't mind?" she asked.

"Oh, yeah. Of course I won't", tipid lang ang pagkangiti ko.

"Oh and by way the Daph, this is Gin. She's acting as my assistant for now before we transfer her in HR department." pakilala sa akin ni Janice.

"Hi", she sweetly greet me and I only nod as a sign of greetings too. I am not hypocrite naman when im replying just like that. Im just trying to be discreet to people whom I am with.

We're starting to eat our lunch when suddenly I heard a voice behind me. A very familiar voice.

"Is it okay if I joined you ladies?" my hand suddenly froze from the moment. Hindi pa ako nakakabawi sa pagkabigla eh bigla ko na lang naramdaman na umupo sya sa tabi ko.

"Of course Sir, of course. Sure! What do you want to order Sir?" si Janice na biglang napaubo at hindi magkandarapa sa pagtayo. I let out a chuckle kasi hindi naman sya yung waiter para alamin kung ano ang gusto ng isang to.

"Hey. Please take your seat Ms. Marquez, I can handle it." sabay lingon dun sa serbidora. "Can I just have what's on your heavy food list? And a mashed potato, make it four. Thank you." he settled on my side after he ordered.

"What are you having B-- ah Ms. Montanez?"... I didn't get to answer kasi parang mabibilaukan na ako sa sobrang hirap kong huminga.

Fvck! Namumula na ako, wala akong mahgilap na tubig. Shit! Shit! Ba't kasi ako nag umpisang kumain ng hindi muna kumukuha ng tubig, mabilis pa naman akong mabilaukan. Hinahawakan ko na yung dibdib ko. Naramdaman kong biglang tumayo si Ash and pagdating nya meron na syang dala dalang tubig. Ininum ko kaagad pagkabigay nya... Nagka ubo ubo pa ako after habang sinusuntok ko ng bahagya yung dibdib ko. Mas lalo pa akong hindi mapakali kasi ba naman hinahagod nya yung likod ko. Jesus Christ! Please calm me down., please...

"I'm okay now Sir. Sorry." at umupo ulit sya sa tabi ko. I can feel his stare, he's laughing at me now. Shit!

"Are you sure? Why is it you suddenly choke? Did I said something funny?" Oh yeah, he's really into teasing me.

"No Sir. I was just-ahm- surprised. You're going to have lunch with us". I looked at Janice and parang gusto kong dukutin yung mata nya. Nag e-enjoy talaga yata tong babaeng to.

"You're only eating brocolli spaghetti? Now I know why you're so thin. You should eat some heavy foods." he commented. Parang gusto ko syang pagsasagutin kaso maraming mata ang nakatuon sa amin. Paano ba naman kasi kasama namin yung big boss sa table namin. Some stares are inggit some are envy and jealous. Nabigla ako ng bigla nyang nilagyan ng kanin yung gilid ng plato ko at ng braised beef.

"Excuse me?? But I'm not eating those." nagsalubong ang kilay ko at tangka ko sanang kunin yung nilagay nya at ilipat sa plato nya .

"No more buts. You're going to eat "those"..." napahiya ako ng maramdaman kong nakatitig na lang sa amin sila Janice and Daphne habang pangiti ngiti. Damn! Ano ba talaga ang plano ng lalaking to.... Pinagtatanggal ko yung garlic sa rice kasi yun yung in-order nya. I hate garlic. Napansin nya yata kaya pinagkukuha nya yun at nilipat sa plato nya saka kinain. Gosh! Wala talaga tong kahiya hiya ang isang to.

"Ah Ms. Marquez, Ms. Montanez will be with me this weekend. So you do not have to worry, because you can enjoy your 2 days rest."

"Oh that? Yes. Thank you so much Sir... I'll just leave everything to Gin, I know she can handle it. Right Gin?" baling sa akin ni Janice.

"Yeah. Sure." sabi ko na lang.

"Ah Daph..., mind if you accompany me to the comfort room?" si Janice sabay tayo at hila hila si Daphne. Magrereklamo pa sana yung isa. Mabilis kong tinapos yung pagkain ko ng hindi tumitingin sa kanya.

"Here. Careful if you don't want to choke again." sabay abot sa akin ni Ash ng isang basong tubig. I murmured my thanks before i drink all of it. I grab my wallet as I stand up.

"I'll be leaving first Sir. Thank you for keeping us as your company" I said as I turned my back towards the canteen hall.

"Well then, i'll be going too...But please wait for them, I still have a meeting on hold. I just want us to have lunch together", napanganga na lang ako sa sinabi nya. Ano daw??? Lunch together? Meaning, ako talaga ang sadya nya nung bumalik sya sa opisina? Arrgghh Lorenzo, why can't you just keep your cold attitude. In times like this, mas gugustuhin ko pang supladuhan nya ako or di kaya sigaw sigawan nya ako, I won't mind kasi boss ko sya. Pero yung ganito? Oh God! He's making things more complicated now.

"Where is the boss now? Don't tell me, umalis na sya?" maang na sabi pa ni Janice.

"Ah.. yeah.. Meron pa daw kasi syang meeting."

"So, what's the score between you two?" usisa nya. May pagka tsismosa talaga to.

"Nothing. Come on. Hindi dahil nakasama natin syang kumain eh merong something. Of course wala, di ba nga tatlo naman tayo yung kasama nya?" i rolled my eyes...

"But Gin, its not that you take my opinion ha? Napansin ko lang talagang may gusto sayo yung boss nyo. Alam mo bang sya lang naman yung pinupunta ko dito sa building na to of course bukod kay Janice. I means he's one of a hottie. Never pa yun na kumain dito sa canteen right Jan? Ngayon pa lang as in ngayon lang. Kaya nga napanganga na lamang kami sa inyo. From the he acts and stare at you, merong kakaiba sa kanya. There is something sparkling. " ..mahabang litanya ni Daphne. Hindi naman ako nainis sa kanya nang sinasabi nya yung nasa saloobin nya. Patango tango naman si Janice. Isang buwan pa lag kaming magkasama nitong si Janice feeling ko naging close na ako sa kanya.

In fact, nahihiya ako ng sobra sobra. Sino ba naman ako di ba na magugustuhan ng lalaking yun eh sa dinami daming naging bimbos nun. At napakasimple ko kung ikumpara ako sa mga yun.

"Hey. Enough of it please. I don't wanna talk about it. Its just a simple gesture of being boss-employee relationship. And there's no any reasons beyond that. No big deal." pagtatapos ko. Nakataas na lang yung kilay ng dalawa. Sabay sabay na kaming nag abang ng elevator. At nagpaalaman na sila Janice and Daphne.

"Til then Gin..." she smiles as the elevator closed.

Si Janice naman, nakatingin lang sa akin at nagkibit balikat. I clung to her arms and she just smile. Im going tell it to you soon Jan. But not now....
