THEIOLOGY: The Galence Code

Chapter 2: A Trail in London

Having a cup of tea while listening to a child song is quiet soothing. The "London Bridge" echoed in each corner of his office. Suddenly, consecutive knocks interrupted and there came Brezette holding a phone.

"A minute for your time, sir?"

"What is it?"

"A call from Imperial Corporation." Hindi na siya sumagot pa at inilahad niya na ang kaniyang kamay at inilapag ni Brezette ang phone sa palad niya. Lumayo nang kaunti ang sekretarya niya at naghintay sa gilid.

"Yes?"

"A pleasant morning to you, Mr. Mozera. It's a pleasure to have a word with you, sir. We'll having an event the day after tomorrow and our President would like to invite you as a guest speaker in presenting the exhibition of Science-Techno Fair. For we knew that your father is working in our corporation before. As our gratitude of your father's loyalty ang contribution, we were hoping that you'll come on the said event. We'll e-mail you shortly the full detail of our upcoming event," the other line said. Her voice is bubbly at halatang excited ito sa pagdalo ni Theio. She is the secretary of the President in Imperial Corporation.

"That won't be a problem," replied Theio at agad niya ring pinatay ang tawag. Binalik niya ang phone sa kaniyang sekretarya at humarap sa kaniyang PC. He just wanted to confirm something.

Nagsaliksik si Theio ng impormasyon sa korporasyon na iyon at tama nga ang sinabi ng sekretarya na iyon. His father once work in their corporation at the age of 24. Siya ang nangunguna sa lahat ng scientist doon. Unfortunately, the incident had come at hindi natapos ang project ng ama. Konti na lang sana ang kulang subalit binawian na agad ng buhay.

Suddenly, his notification bar made a faint yet short noise. It was a message from Imperial Corporation. He opened it and read the message silently. The first paragraph is an invitation letter and it has a button kung dadalo ba o hindi. Ito ang magiging access nila sa event. While in the second paragraph is the full detail of the said event. May iba't ibang larawan doon ng bawat kompanya sa kanilang newly invented device or system. But what caught his attention the most is the invention from Imperial Corporation where the President's name is imprinted below the picture na siya ang imbentor ng nasabing device.

The device looks very familiar to him. If he's not mistaken, 12 years ago his father brought his project at home pero hindi natapos kasi binawian na ng buhay. Konti na lang sana ay matatapos na iyon.
Malinaw pa sa tubig ang alaala niya. Ang kaibahan lang ay mas polish na iyon. The device is in spherical shape na kasing liit ng mata at sa tansya ni Theio ay umabot sa 2 inches ang height. Napakuyom ang kamao nito at umigting ang bagang. The President took all the credit sa ginawa ng kaniyang ama. Ni walang pasasalamat na nakalagay doon. Dahil sa inis ay napasuntok ito sa mesa at mabilis na tumayo. He fished his phone in his pocket habang ang kaliwang kamay ay nakapamewang.

Hindi pa umabot sa tatlong ring ay sinagot na ang tawag sa Science Laboratory Department.

"Tell Bartholomew na pabilisan ang kinunsulta ko sa kaniya."

"Copy, sir." Mabilis na nagtipa ang sumagot sa tawag upang i-connect si Bartholomew sa linya.

"Y-yes, consulted HGP is now officially a bionic person."

"Very well. Pupunta ako dyan ngayon." Mabilis na tumakbo papalabas ng office si Theio at inutusang sumunod sa kaniya ang kaniyang sekretarya.

Brezette tried to keep her pace from Theio dahil sa bilis ng hakbang nito.

"Pupunta tayo ng London ngayon together with our bionic person. Hopefully successful ang ginawa ni Bartholomew sa kaniya."

"Sir kung aalis tayo kasama ako, sino ang magpa-facilitate sa WIP projects natin?"
