Sailing Above the Clouds

CHAPTER 31

"So ito ba yung place na tatayuan? Infairness agaw pansin." Sabi ko habang tinitingnan ang bakanteng lote at maluwang 'to kaya malaking bar ang mapapatayo namin ni Gale.

Naging secretary noon ng isang CEO sa isang sikat na kompanya sa Spain si Gale kaya maraming savings yan kaya madali na lang sa kanya at sa akin ang magpatayo ng Speak-easy tsaka noon pa lang balak na namin magpatayo ng ganito.

I looked at the car coming beside us at sigurado akong sila Parker 'yon, bumaba si Parker na inaayos ang lukot-lukot niyang white polo na long sleeves at napataas ang kilay ko nang umikot siya upang pagbuksan si Daina ng pinto.

I looked away para tingnan muli ang lupang tatayuan ng Speak-easy. What could possibly happen between a woman and man inside a car and in addition the guy's polo is kinda messy?

"Ang ganda ng place ah?" Daina said while looking at the lot.

"Nag sisig express ba kayo?" I chuckled when I heard what Gale asked to Parker and Daina.

"Anong sisig express-"

"Eloisa!" I smiled when I saw Yunick holding a bouquet of flowers and he gave it to me. "For you, Ito ba yung lot niyo ni Gale?"

"Oo, maganda ba?"

"Yes, agaw pansin." He said and I looked at Parker and I think he's calculating something in his brain while talking to Daina. Probably thought about the lot and some measurements.

"So ano? Fifth wheel ang peg ko?" Gale said and Daina laughed.

"Infairness bagay kayo, coz'." Daina said at Yunick and he just chuckled.

"Wews." Gale said and I glared at her. "HUMSS x STEM pa 'rin."

I rolled my eyes and walked away to get my tumbler at my car. I opened it and after getting it my eyes widened when I saw Parker at my back because his car is parked beside mine.

He opened the door of his car and took some papers.

"Designs." He said and my brows furrowed.

"Yung girlfriend mo dapat magpakita sa akin niyan." I said and hinawi ko ang buhok na humaharang sa mukha ko dahil sa lakas ng hangin.

"Paano ba 'yan? Wala akong girlfriend kaya ako nalang." I rolled my eyes and took it at his hand.

"Thanks." I walked away and nag-uusap yung tatlo mukhang pinag-uusapan nila ang mga ikakaganda ng bar.

"Oh! Binigay na pala sayo ni Parker ang designs!"

Daina came beside me and she explained things while pointing some parts at the lots saying that it'll be perfect for it to have a design like this and that and those chuchu wala akong maintindihan.

"Uhmm so the second floor will look like this?" I pointed at the design she made.

"Yes, it's kinda aesthetic." She said while smiling.

"Ang ganda." I said while Parking was talking to his workmates na mga kakadating lang dahil bukas na sisimulan ang paggawa ng bar. Gusto ko lang mafamiliarize ng mga mag tatrabaho sa lot.

"Where's the blueprint?" I asked and Parker he gave it to me. "Thanks."

"Looks like what they say is true, ang galing niyo talagang dalawa." Gale said while looking at the designs.

"Eloisa." I looked at Yunick. "Mauuna na ako kailangan pa paghandaan yung party mamaya eh, wag mo akong i-ditch ah?"

"Sige, ingat ka-"

My eyes widened when he kissed my cheek and winked at me and that kiss made me realize something, that i'm not into him. That kiss feels like nothing as if it never actually happened. I touched my cheek and I looked at Parker who's also looking but he looked away and talked with the workers.
