Wounds and Sunflowers

Chapter 2

I spent the whole day walking through aisles of every store in the mall, looking for the things I've listed, these includes the furnitures, vases, paintings, frames and other things that would be needed to redo the room I was talking about.

I was with my 18 year old brother who were grumpy throughout the day for I took too much time scrutinizing every product I purchased.

Well, ganoon talaga ako, tinitignan ko munang mabuti ang isang produkto bago ko ito bilhin para iwas pagsisisi. Baka pag-uwi ay bigla akong makakita ng sira o ano pa kaya mas mabuti nalang na suriin itong mabuti.

It was past 2 pm when we went to my shop, and since then until 8 pm, we redone my office and thankfully, naayos namin ito nang kaming dalawa lang.

The office was black and white themed because those two are my favourite colors and also they calm me whenever I feel stressed kaya iyon ang napagdesisyonan kong theme nf office ko, para naman kumalma ako kapag stressed na.

When we're done, kumain muna kami sa isang restaurant na malapit lang sa shop ko  bago ko hinatid si Klaud sa condo unit niya. Hindi na ako pumasok sa condominium, umuwi na agad ako dahil aayusin ko pa iyong mga sunflowers na inihatid sa bahay kaninang tanghali.

Inilagay ko sa ibabaw ng mini glass table sa living room ko ang isang box ng wet floral foam na binili ko kanina.

Tinganggal ko ang sapatos ko bago ako naglakad papuntang second floor para magbihis muna.

I changed my clothes into a sleeveless, square-neck white croptop and a denim shorts. I also wore a slippers before I went down.

Nagtungo ako sa gazebo kung nasaan ang mga sunflowers, at napanganga ako nang makita ang isang box ng sunflower seeds.

Wow, ganti ba 'to.

I gritted my teeth and strode to my great neighbour's house. Hindi nakalock iyong gate niya kaya madali akong nakapasok.

I stood straight in front of his door before I knocked--well, it was already a punch. Firm and loud.

Makailang beses pa akong kumatok bago bumukas ang pinto at sumalubong saakin ang isang lalaking nagmumukang demonyo na nakasuot lang ng black jogging pants, aside from it, wala na siyang ibang suot pa, ni tsinelas o sapatos ay wala.

His eight-pack abs, muscular shoulders and chest showed of in front of me along with his tan skin and messy back hair.

Hindi ko iyon pinansin dahil wala naman akong pakealam kahit may ten-pack abs pa siya.

"I told you to deliver a bunch of sunflowers, not seeds," I said, annoyed.

He smirked.

"Those are still a bunch of sunflowers."

"What I meant was the flowers!" I exclaimed. Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin nang mas lalong lumaki ang ngiti niya.

"Oh, sorry for the inconvenience, ma'am. Don't worry, you'll have your order tomorrow morning. "

"I want it now."

"Bukas na lang, wala na akong trabahad----"

"No. I want it now, so let's go to your field and get some sunflowers."

"What?"

"You heard me."

"You've gotta be kidding."

"I'm not. Tara na kung ayaw mo mawalan ng gulong iyong sasakyan mo."

I gave him a warning glare and I think it was effective because ge heaved a sigh, sounds like defeated.
