Kasalukuyan akong nakaupo sa aking swivel chair at hawak hawak ang aking cellphone. I really want to call her but I just can't.

Damn my stupidity and foolishness.-- I'm a lovesick fool. Thanks to my wife.

"Boss, nandito po si Mr. Akito Ang." Pinagbuksan ni Aiko ng pinto ang matandang lalaki na may nanlilisik na mga mata. Filipino-Chinese na matagal ng business partner ni Dad sa ilan naming negosyo sa China. Sinadya niya pa talaga ako, mukhang galit pa siya.

Well? Ano pa ba ang bago sa gurang na 'to? Lagi niya naman akong kinokontra sa lahat ng desisyon ko sa negosyo.

"Get out, your Boss and I will talk about something." Napataas ang kilay ko sa tono ng pananalita niya kay Aiko pero pinagsawalang bahala naman iyon ng huli.

Tsk. I don't really like this old man.

"Mr. Ang, what brought you here?" Tanong ko ng tuluyan ng makalabas si Aiko.

"Have you ever thought twice before pulling out your investments with MAL?" He's mad. Like I care?

"My wife is all that I am thinking of, Mr. Ang. Ayaw niya kay Ms. Medlar and I agreed to her, so I ended up cutting off all the negotiations I have with MAL." Inalok ko siya na umupo pero nanatili lang siyang nakatayo sa harapan ng desk ko.

Ah, he should never test my patience.

While I'm away from home and my wife, I did some investigations with the help of Aiko. And I really wanted to go home now, as much as possible. What I discovered is very disgusting and degrading. In my baby sister's own word- gross.

"Without consulting me?!"

"I've asked everyone and I did not receive any commotion from them. I think my personal assistant left you a message for about two weeks ago and we heard nothing from you. It's the majority's decision, Mr. Ang." Sumandig ako sa swivel ko at itinago sa bulsa ko ang aking cellphone. I'll just leave her a message before going to the airport.

"No! Alam mo ba ang resulta ng ginawa mo?! Iniipit ni Aphrodite ang mga transactions ko with other businessmen!" Angal niya.

Not my fault! Tsk!

Aphrodite is trying to bring me down, is that it? Gigipitin niya ang lahat ng kasamahan ko sa negosyo. Tsk. Front lang naman 'to, walang kinalaman sa Mafia. Inuunti-unti niya ba akong pilayan? Hindi pa din siya magtatagumpay! She should do better, baka kabahan pa ako kapag Mafia ko na ang ginalaw niya.

I'll kill her before she gets near my family and wife. Siguraduhin niya lang talaga na hindi ko makikita ang pagmumukha niya at baka mga kamay ko mismo ang makakapatay sa kanya.

"That's not my problem anymore." Walang gana ko siyang sinenyasan ulit na umupo pero ayaw niya pa din. Tsk. Bahala na siya na sumakit ang mga tuhod niya kakatayo diyan.

"Anonyg hindi?! Nahihibang ka na ba?! Our company needs her!"

Tumawa ako ng pagak at tinasaan ko siya ng kilay.

He knows the meaning of MAL as Modern Amazona's League but he doesn't knew that, it really is a league of women. The women who wants to reach the top, to get even with men. A real Mafia.

That selfish Aphrodite will bring him down. And now, she's on her move. Power has overcome her mind and she's planning for something big. She used to be my best friend but after what I just knew? I just want to bury a bullet in her forehead!

Subukan niya lang talaga na lapitan ang asawa ko! Magkalimutan na!

"My company is an independent organisation, Mr. Ang. I don't need her business and connections. If you have a problem with her, siya na lang ang kausapin mo. You know what? This conversation is just shit. You can leave now." Inikot ko ang swivel at bumungad sa akin ang mga nagtataasang building sa labas.
