Everybody's eyes were on us as we enter the building. I realized that maybe the staff finds it odd to see us together. Sanay kasi sila na hiwalay kaming pumapasok ni Benjamin.
Marami ang bumati sa amin patungo ng elevator. Benjamin kept his hand firmly on my waist as we enter the elevator.
"Good morning, Ma'am. Good morning, Sir." Bati ng mga kasabay namin sa elevator.
Nilingon ko sila at binati pabalik. Habang si Benjamin naman ay tipid silang nginitian sabay ibinaling muli ang tingin sa numero na nagsasaad kung nasaang palapag na kami.
Nang dumating naman kami sa tamang palapag ay para bang nagsihintuan ang mga empleyado sa pagtatrabaho. All of them turned their gaze on us. Some even has a surprised look on their faces. While some even tried to hide their smiles but in the end, they failed.
I gulped and tried not to pay too much attention to their stares. Namilog naman ang mga mata ni Jona nang makita niya kaming magkasama ni Benjamin. Tinanguan siya ni Benjamin at binati niya naman ito. Agad siyang nag-iwas ng tingin sa amin.
"So," I said and turned to Benjamin. "I'll just prepare everything that I'll need for the meeting and-"
"Sabay na tayo umuwi mamaya." He cut me off, completely ignoring what I just said. Napalunok naman ako.
Damn. It's really hard to get used to this kind of Benjamin. It's weird... but I like it.
"Uh... O-Okay." I nod my head.
Tumalikod ako sakanya upang pumasok na sana ng aking opisina nang hawakan niya ang braso ko upang pigilan ako sa tinatangkang gawin. He made me turn to him again. I was surprised when he put his hand on my jaw to pull me closer so he can press a kiss on my lips. My eyes widened. Napangiti siya nang makitang nagulat ako sa ginawa niya. He bit his lower lip.
"I'll see you later." Aniya sabay hinaplos ang aking pisngi.
Pagkatapos noon ay dumiretso na siya patungo sa opisina niya na parang wala lang nangyari. The surprised look on my face is still there. I let out a sigh. Napahawak pa ako sa aking dibdib nang maramdamang bumibilis ang tibok ng puso ko.
Nang lingunin ko si Jona ay nakabuka na rin ang bibig niya nang dahil rin sa gulat. Mamaya maya pa ay napalitan iyon ng ngiti.
"Wow! PDA!" pang-aasar niya.
I rolled my eyes and chuckled.
"Good morning to you, Jona." Sabi ko at pumasok na ng opisina ko.
Inabala ko ang sarili sa pag-ayos ng aking presentation. The designs are really great! Modern and very unique at the same time.
Actually, I can present everything on my own. But since I wanted to give my team the opportunity to show what they got, sinama ko sila sa magiging meeting. Buti nalang rin at tapos na ako sa pag-aayos nang tumawag si Jona upang ipaalam sa akin na oras na para sa meeting.
