Jao

"How was your delivery?"

I glared at Francis who's sitting comfortably at the couch inside my office. Kanina pa ako ginugulo nito at nagtatanong tungkol sa ipinunta ko sa Allejos Enterprise. It happened two days ago and now he's bugging me.

"Bro shut up, wala ako sa mood pag-usapan 'yon," naiinis kong sabi rito. I tried to ignore him and just continued reading a file of my patient.

Truth be told, I am not really in the mood to talk about what happened. Kapag naaalala ko ang lalaking 'yon, kung saan-saan umaabot ang pag-iisip ko.

Why does he have that line?

Why am I feeling something off about him?

It's bugging me. I'm thinking over a person I didn't know, it's too much to my liking.

"Seraphine told me about it. Ang may-ari ang ipinunta mo. Tell me Jao, what does she looks like?," my eyebrows furrowed while listening to Francis. "Is she beautiful? Matanda na ba? Dalaga? I heard she's gorgeous."

Inangat ko ang aking paningin kay Francis. He's looking at the ceiling, back's leaning at the couch and legs are crossed. Nang mapansin niya ang pagtitig ko sa kanya ay tiningnan ako nito nang nagtatanong.

"What?"

"You said she but the one I met was a he."

"No way!," gulat na sabi ni Francis. "Edi totoo pala talaga ang sabi nila na lalaki ang may-ari ng Allejos?"

Hindi ko alam kung bakit ganito nalang kung mag-react si Francis. What's the big deal? Ano naman kung lalaki pala ang may-ari?

"I don't really care," I said. Sumandal ako sa upuan ko at tiningnan si Francis nang naguguluhan. "But something's off about that person," mahina kong sabi.

Kumunot naman ang noo niya at tila naguguluhan sa sinabi ko. Completely have no idea what am I talking about.

"What do you mean?"

"He's weird," diretsa kong sagot.

"Weird? Like what weird?," tanong nito completely not getting my point. Umiling nalang ako sa kanya at nag-iwas ng tingin. I think I'm over thinking it. Maybe he's just too arrogant kaya ayaw niya na may lumapit sa kanya. Just by the thought of it pisses me off. Tss, what a lofty.

Nabaling ang tingin ko sa pinto ng may kumatok mula doon.

"Come in."

Pumasok ang isang babae---my secretary. Lumapit ito sa'kin at yumuko bilang pagbati.

"Doc, Doc Seraphine's been calling you. Bakit daw po hindi kayo sumasagot?," aniya na ikinagulat ko. Mabilis dinukot ang phone sa bulsa at nakita ang 23 missed calls from Seraphine. My phone's in silent that's why I didn't noticed her calls! What the fucking hell?

"Looks like someone's doomed!," Francis said chuckling. Napatingin ang sekretarya ko sa kanya na kinindatan naman ng huli. I glared at him.
