Fix You

Intro

🎶When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

When the tears come streaming down your face
'Cause you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
What could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you...

"Manong pakipatay ng music. "

"Nako ma'am eh ang ganda nitong kantang ito eh. Alam mo po kasi kapag naririnig ko to pakiramdam ko kase lahat ng mga problema ko kaya kong bigyan ng solusyon." paliwanag nya.

Tss. Sinabi nya rin sakin yan eh.

"Manong Rey sabi ko pakipatay ng music. Ayokong marinig ang tugtog na yan. " mahinahon kong utos sa kanya.

"S-sorry po ma'am." paumanhin nya.

"Whenever you feel down just listen to this song this might help you to relax. You know it help me alot to get better. This song and I help you. I'll never leaved you alone. I promised."

Never leaved me? You promised? You jerk!

"Okay lang. Malapit na po ba tayo Manong?" I asked to get rid of that thoughts.

"Medyo malayo pa po ma'am. Mukang matatagalan pa tayo dito eh." paliwanag nya.

"I see."

Ibinalik ko ang tingin ko sa papel na hawak ko. I read the proposal that I've prepared for the other investors pero dahil sa narinig ko nakalimutan ko nanaman. Hays, manong kase eh.

We're on our way to the company dahil may pupuntahan kami ni Giann to meet the model na nakuha nya from Paris. Kelangan namin yung model para mapataas ang sales namin this month para hindi mag pullout ang mga investor namin. Pinaghirapan kong isalba ang JJCC Industry kaya hindi ako papayag na masira ito ng letcheng competitor na yun.

Ugh! Damn this traffic. Ni hindi manlang ako makakapag ayos ng sarili. I look myself in my phone's camera and saw that someone's calling.

Giann calling..

"Hello?"

"Boss where are you? "

"Dito pa kami sa NLEX. Why? May traffic eh. "

"Sige. Wag mong kalimutan yung lunch together with the model ha? "

" Of course. Mahalaga sakin to eh. Last chance ko na to. Pinaghirapan ko to pati ni Dad kaya i wont let him go."

"Really. Haha I wonder if you couldn't let him go. "

"What do you mean? " nagtataka kong tanong.

"Nothing. Before lunch don't be late. Make yourself presentable. "

"Nanay ba kita? Tss. By the way , anong restaurant ba? "

"Bistro Ravioli Restaurant here in Makati."

"Okay. Bye" paalam ko sabay patay ng cellphone.

Make yourself presentable? Im presentable in my own ways.

It takes 25 mins ng makarating kami sa Bistro Ravioli in Makati, City. When I got there, I go to the ladies room to put some powder and lipgloss in my face to feel fresh. Binagay ko lang ito sa suot kong black pants paired with black flat shoes and white shirt and pink longsleeve on tops. I feel comfortable when I wore this.

After making myself presentable as my own way, I headed straightly in the VIP area of the restaurant. I immediately saw Giann and my Dad. I never thought that Dad would be come. Tuwing may business meeting o meeting with a client, hindi sya pumupunta lagi lang sya sa office. Kami lang lagi ni Giann ang umaattend sa ganito. Hmm, wierd.

"Jastine's here." narinig kong sabi ni Giann habang nakatingin sakin. I only node at him.

"Oh Dad why are you here? You told me that you want to rest today. Kami na lang sana ni Giann. At isa pa usually you didnt attend in this kind of business meeting. " tanong ko kay daddy na may nagtatakang tingin sa kanila ni Giann.

"I just want to. Mas mabuting nandito ako para maganda ang usapan. Alam kong huling pag asa na natin to para hindi masira ang pinaghirapan mo. " paliwanag nya habang nakatingin sa mga mata ko.

Ang wierd lang. Alam kong may tiwala sakin si Dad pero bakit ngayon iba sya? Hindi ko na lang iyon pinansin at tumahimik na lang.

"Where's the model? " tanong ko ng mapansing wala pa ito.

"Ah. He went out. May tumawag kase sa kanya bago ka dumating." he explained.

"I see. Oorder na ko habang wala pa sya. Waiter!"

"Yes ma'am? You want menu?" tanong sakin ng waiter.

"No need. Please served us the most valuable dishes in your restaurant. Thanks."

"Okay ma'am. Please wait 5 mins ma'am."

While waiting to the model, we chat something about the proposal for other investor at kung paano namin mapapataas ang sales this month.

"Jaja, sabi ko magsuot ka maging presentable ka ngayon diba? Bat ganyan lang suot mo?" tanong ni Giann.

"Tss. You know that I didn't wear dresses. This is my style. Im comfortable with this. " asar kong sabi sa kanya.

"He's here. " Dad said. Tatayo ng sana ako ng malaglag yung papel na hawak ko kanina. Pinulot ko ito ng isa isa.

"I think we need to start." the model said.

That voice. Hindi ko makakalimutan ang boses na yun. Unti unti akong napatayo at napatitig dun sa lalaking yun. Halatang nagulat sya ng makita agad nya rin narecover ito. Parang nanigas ako sa kinatatayuan ko. Hindi ako makapagsalita. Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon ko. Parang biglang bumalik lahat ng sakit.

"Jastine, this is Mr. Kirt Terson Villegas, ang magiging model natin sa lahat ng suit na irereleased natin para muling maayos ang kumpanya." pakilala ni Dad sa lalaking nasa harapan ko.

No way! Sya? Sya ang magiging dahilan para maging maayos ang kumpanya na pinaghirapan ko?!

"Don't worry Sir. I'll help you to recover your whole company at bring your company on the top."

"Help to recoved and bring us to the top? Really?" I asked with full of sarcasm and went out to the restaurant. I heard that Dad and Giann called me but I didnt bother to look back.

I want to go home. I dont want to see him.

Help us? Fix us? Sinong maniniwala sayo? You proved me nothing at all.
