"Gusto niyo ma'am samahan ko na kayo?" Kuya edgar insisted.
Mainit pa naman yung panahon "Wag na kuya edgar. I'll just call you if kailangan kita" I said. Wala ng choice si kuya edgar dahil ako pa rin yung masusunod.
"Suotin niyo nalang to Ma'am kayla" Binigyan ako ni Kuya edgar ng face mask at sun glasses. Kahit sa maliliit na bagay ay napapangiti ako ni kuya edgar. "Salamat kuya edgar"
Di ko na naisip to kanina, kasi wala na akong paki alam kong may maka kita sa akin na ganito yung itsura ko.
Sinalubong din ako ng staff ni Marco . "Ma'am kayla this way po" she guided me papunta kela Marco and Alyssa. Maaga silang nakarating dito dahil malapit lang din yung companya nila marco.
Hindi pa ako nakaka lapit sakanila nakita ko na agad si Marco at Alyssa. Tinutulungan nyang mag suot ng hard hat si alyssa. He is smiling while doing it.
Napalingon si alyssa sa akin kaya tumingin na rin si Marco. "Hi Kayla" She greeted me. They might be wondering why naka sunglasses ako at facemask.
I prepared myself kung anong magiging reaction nila sa pagmumukha ko ngayon.
I'm a mess. Kaya kailangan kong magsuot ng sun glasses at face mask "Wear this" Marco gave hard hat" hindi na ako tumingin sakanya at sinuot yung binigay nya sa akin.
"Saan tayo mag sisimula?" I asked alyssa.
She was looking at marco bago tumingin sa akin. "This way" Alyssa guided us and she was explaining every detail of the building. A lot of engineers were following us while conducting the roving. "We have a little revision in this area kasi yung sukat na nabigay was not match with this area. But we are rectifying this now" She explained.
Ramdam ko na yung pawis ko sa muka at gusto ko ng alisin yung mask.
Nagulat ako nung binigyan ako ni marco ng panyo. At first I decline it but he left it in my hand. Kaya ginamit ko na.
"This area will be done by tomorrow. Our electrician will attached all the electric provision" Marco explained.
We are almost done nasa 3rd floor na kami and last na yung 4rth floor and the rooftop.
I was discussing my concerns with alyssa. Kinausap niya agad yung team niya about my concern kaya umupo na muna ako sa tabi.
Hinubad ko na muna yung mask at sun glasses dahil sa pawis na talaga ako.
"Drink this" napatingin agad ako sakanya. "Thanks" biting sagot ko.
"Are you okay?" Nag aalalang tanong niya. I don't wanna cry in here. Not here.
"I'm okay" I said not looking at him.
"What happened to your--" feeling ko anytime maiiyak na ako.
"I'm okay!" Tumingin ako sakanya "Please act like you didn't see me like this"
"I'm sorry" He said. And I left him.
Hindi na nya ako nilapitan ulit hanggang sa natapos kami. We rested for a while again and I just saw how alyssa wiped marco's sweat.
Mas lalo pang bumibigat yung sakit na nararamdaman ko ngayon. Nagpa alam na ako kay alyssa at tinawagan na si kuya edgar na aalis na kami.
I didn't bother to look back. I don't want to hurt myself more.
"Kuya uwi na po tayo" I said. I fell asleep in the car. Ginising na ako ni manang lina.
Inalayan niya agad ako pababa ng sasakyan. "Hinanda ko yung bathtub mo"
