when love turn back the time

chapter 2

I sighed. I have so many things to fix. As in, sobrang dami.

Tinitigan ko ang mga projects na naka lagay sa table ko.

Mga condo units, building and mga malalaking project.

May meeting mamaya sa conference room kasama ang mga owner ng mga project, engineer at architect.

Architect..

May kumatok sa office ko

"Come in"

"Good morning Eng.faith. andun na po ang lahat kayo nalang ang hinihintay" the she left

Pag pasok ko sa room, andun ang mga business man/woman. Tumayo sila

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen.
I'm faitheya stollenwork, daughter of Eng.franco stollenwork. He's not here so i'm the one who need to fix the projects he left"

I stood confidently in front of them, isa isa ko sila tinitigan. May mga bachelors na naka titig din sakin habang naka ngiti.

" so let's start this meeting"

Inayos na ng team ko ang monitor sa harap habang ako naman ay inaayos ang presentation ko.

Humarap ako sa kanilang lahat at ngumiti bago mag salita.

"This condo units contain so many rooms. Our team, our architect made some examples of room" then pinakita sa screen ang blue print.

One plain white with four side room only, that's not so expensive its just plain but elegant.

The other one is  a cream but its two storey. The living room is large and huge with one long couch and two sofa, there's also a small table.

"Eng.faith" a mid twenty girl raise a hand. She looks sophisticated, elegant with her serious face i remember jenice to her.

"Yes, miss?"

"Architect skyla stemans. Anyway i like your designs but the first one i didn't like. Being an architect, your design is  look like,yung parang nag titipid?"i smiled at her

"That's what exactly my poit architect skyla, actually i'm not yet done to my presentation.I did't even explaning my design yet" natahimik sya, parang napa hiya.

Mag sasalita na sana ako ng biglang bumukas ang office door.

At halos manghina ako sa kung sinong pumasok dito.

"Am i late? I'm sorry"  even his voice.

With his white long sleeves rolled on his forearm, black slacks and brown leather shoes.

Tumayo ang lahat ng tao sa room para kamayan sya at batiin.

Architect Adrix scott is a professional and great architect. In his young age, he's successful.

Dumapo ang tingin nya sakin dahil ako lang ang nanatili saking pwesto.

His deep eyes, pointed nose, natural red lips and define jaw, his stare is more intimidating after all.

Napa lunok ako bago nag umpisang mag lakad papunta sakanya. My knees are trembling but i tried to calm and smiled at him. Napa titig sya sakin.

"I'm eng.faitheya stollenwork. Nice to finally meet you architect adrix scott" i said and raise my hand to have a shake hand to him.

Nanlamig ako ng hawakan nya ang kamay ko. Its gentle but my heart running away from my body.

Tumagal ang kamay namin ng five sec, bago ko kinuha ang kamay sakanya at tinalikuran sya

"Let's c-continue" shit and now i'm shuttering.

Sa dulo ng lamesa sya naka upo at ang buong atensyon nya ay nasa akin.
Hindi ako mapakali at nanginginig ang aking kamay.

"So as i was saying, the condo units or room i showed to you i-its just an example. You can add or suggest your opinion" sabi ko napa tingin sakanya.

His lips curve into a smile, i looked away.

"For me eng.faith your design is good hindi naman kasi lahat ng nag co-condo ay gusto ng malaki at expensive kaya the first design is okey" the man said, i think he's just early thirty.

I smiled at him.

"I'm xyron heyden. Son of the owner of that condo by the way"

Nanlaki ang mata ko at dali daling lumapit sakanya para maki pag kilala.

"Oh i'm sorry mr.heyden.I didn't know" nahihiyang sabi ko.
But he just smiled.

"That's okey, architect scott will helping you to this project para hindi ka mahirapan sa pag dedesign ng ibang room, masyadong maraming room ang gagawin nyo. And i hope you'll work together" and he smiled devilish.

Tuluyan na akong hindi naka pag salita.

Masyadong mabilis ang lahat ng nangyayari, una nalaman ko na naka uwi na sya galing france, pangalawa bigla nalang syang sumulpot sa meeting na ito at pang huli... makakasama ko sya sa trabaho

"B-but mr.heyden.I need to talk to my father first 'cause we have an architect on our team."

Napa tingin sakin si adrix. I looked away.

"Well, eng.faith i already talk to your father.Its better if you both talk. I mean you and architect scott"

Tuluyan na akong natahimik.
Ang dami kong gustong sabihin but i can't talk, i can't speak.

Bumalik na ako sa gitna.

"Miss stollenwork, if you don't mind i can go to your office" adrix said

"No"agap ko. Pero napa lakas

"I mean, i have a secretary. And i still need to talk to my father first." Sabi ko pero hindi ako naka tingin sakanya.

"If that's what you want" then he smirk

"So let's end this meeting, i'm fine to your design eng.faith i hope you will work together" then tumayo na sila para maki pag kamayan.

Nauna lumabas si skyla.
Ngumingiti ako sa mga nakikipag kamayan sakin.

Iniiwasan kong mag tagpo kami ni adrix kaya nauna na akong lumabas.

I know hindi ako nag paka professional sa harap nya but i can't face him now.

I'm not ready. Well ganyan naman talaga ang buhay, hindi ka hihintayinng panahon hangga't handa ka na. You need to face the things that you avoid with
