"What are you grinning like an idiot? Hindi ka binabayaran para tumunganga lang dyan, Toledo. Get back in the kitchen!"
The manager yelled at me for the second time now, God! She's getting on my nerves! Kundi lang talaga.. Naku! Nakakagigil!
"'Yaan mo na yung si Ursula, Baka hindi lang nakascore sa asawa niya kagabi" Mariel leaned in closer to whisper in my ear and we began giggling. Yes, Ursula nga yung name ng manager namin dito sa Jollibee samay Quezon Avenue corner Araneta Avenue branch
"Kaya kayo napapagalitan eh, magtrabaho na nga kayo!" Isa pa tong si Irvin, sipsip talaga kay Ursula nakakairita. I rolled my eyes and got back to work
"Teka, San ka ba kasi galing at ang laki ng eyebags mo ngayon ah?" Ayan na naman si Mariel
"May pinuntahan akong bago raket eh" I said and laid the spicy chicken on the tray
"Eh anong raket nama yon? Aber? Baka pwede mo naman akong isama"
"Naku, Yel .. Wag na.. You wouldn't want to know. Swear" I shove a scoop of fries and went to the sundae section
"Is that illegal?"
"'Course not, Silly" I laughed off and put the Choco crumble on the tray. Kung bibilangin ko ang carbs sa taong nag order ngayon, talagang mabigat. Fries, Champ, Sundae with cokefloat and spaghetti pa. One thing's for sure .. This kid's gonna die in calories
"Andaya mo, Meg ah! D ka nagsha-share!" She whined but began to attend to the next customer on the counter " Yes maam what can I get you?" I heard her say, smiling on the woman on a pencil skirt right before her
"Heto na po order niyo, Sir----?" Nautal akong bigla at umurong and dila ko the moment I saw who was my customer as of the moment
"Hey, Meggy" He smiled. It was Jose, he was still on his black suit and black pants. All professional and sophisticated looking just like the first time I saw him
I didn't say anything further but just smiled at him "Enjoy your meal,Sir"
"Toooot.. Tooot.. Tooot.. Toooot"
I groaned when I was suddenly woken up by the sound of my alarm clock right next to my ear. My eyes were still half close, when I reached for it on my nightstand. Man! I was dreaming about my life and my struggles way way back in time. I even dreamt about him
Jose, was one old news who brought both good and bad memories in my life but right now, I dont think I'm ready for some back track down my memory lane
while my other eye lid was sluggishly closed, I peered with the other and saw "7:30" flashed in a red text on my digital clock
"Shit!" I cursed as I sat up from my bed. I looked around and was deliberately surprise to see a man right next to my bed. He groaned before shifting his weight
"Oh don't tell me" I thought from the back of my head before I pulled my covers up to my breast and hurriedly went to the bathroom
When I came back fresh from shower, I saw him slipping into his pants. I looked at him from head to toe and I still couldn't recognize who he was. He wasn't from the university for sure and definitely not from one of Nina's circles
