LEIRINANDREAPATTERSON
I was seated beside my father and in front of Kuya Lance at our huge dining table while I was wearing a formal business suit. I paired a black body-hugging and turtle neck dress with a light brown coat. I dressed like this dahil sabi nila ay isasama ako ni Kuya Lance sa kaniyang opisina kung saan niya tinatrabaho ang legal na negosyo ng aming pamilya.
"I received a lot of good feedback from Terrence, following your training with him," pagbasag ng aking ama sa katahimikan ng aming hapag. Isang nahihiyang ngiti ang aking ibinigay sa kaniya bago ako sumagot.
"Madali lang naman pong tandaan at unawain ang mga bagay-bagay," I shyly responded. "I may be good at absorbing things, but we are not sure yet if we can apply what I have learned once I am handling those things independently," I continued smiling.
"I'm sure you will do well," paniniguro naman ng aking ama na siyang aking tinanguan. "Your Kuya will guide you, too, so don't worry about everything," pagpapatuloy pa nito.
"I'm excited to work with you. Just so you know, I hate it when people do not have a sense of urgency," sabi ni Kuya Lance before he wiped his lips with a table napkin cloth. Ang expensive tingnan, feeling ko tuloy hindi ako bagay sa pamilya namin dahil minsan ay wala akong class.
I just smiled and nodded. Confident naman ako sa hindi ito maiinis sa akin dahil when it comes to work, mabilis ako.
Matapos kumain ay agad kaming nagpunta ni Kuya Lance sa city kung saan located ang head office ng aming business. Habang nasa daan ay nalaman kong may iba't-ibang business ang aming pamilya.
Isa na rito ang Blue Heaven Academy kung saan may full scholarship ang mga anak ng miyembro ng Black Heaven Organization. Maganda rin ang reputasyon ng paaralan. However, side businesses lang ito, at ang primary focus ng mga Patterson ay property development.
Kahit walang existing na Black Heaven Organization ay parang afford pa rin ng pamilya kong bumili ng isang bansa.
I looked up at the building where Kuya Lance drove around to get to the parking lot. May reserved spot para sa kaniya kaya hindi na ito nahirapang maghanap. Mukhang may valet attendant naman pero mas pinili nitong i-park ang sasakyan on his own.
Kaya naman pala mas gusto nitong siya ang magpark ng sasakyan dahil mas malapit sa parking spot niya ang elevator na nagmumula sa basement. Base na rin sa itsura nito, parang exclusive itong elevator para kay Kuya Lance.
"I have a challenge for you," sabi nito nang makapasok kami sa elevator.
I tilted my head and waited for Kuya Lance's next words.
"I am trying to close this multimillion-dollar deal with a Filipino-American business personality. He is known for being strict when it comes to dealings. Mahirap itong pasagutin ng oo at iilan lamang ang inaaprubahan niyang proposals," Kuya Lance enumerated, while I was nodding like I am some sort of a bubble-head figure.
