“Ahm..”- The moment he turned to me, I was half glad half confused also can’t for any wods to say
“Hi”- I felt the awkward situation we are in to, like I didn’t expect this
“A-Alvin?”- I ask so shock, and then I saw how he is nervous and shy at the same time t smile at me
“Are you okay now?”- It’s like he was worried about me
“Yeah, thanks to you. It is because of you why didn’t get any scratch, so thank you very much for catching from that all”- I said with all the gladness I felt for him
“Y-Yeah. No problem”- He said to me, like it was nothing.
“Do you know each other?”- CEO asks us. CEO looks so deceiving; you can’t the strong authority she has when she is with us. All you can see is her beautiful face with a perfact smile.
“Yeah, he is my schoolmate”- I answered to her, and then she just smile to Alvin
“Well, what is your name young man?”- She ask Alvin, the way she walks and the way she look also the way she speaks is so elegant. I think she was born like that. Unlike me, I walk like man, dress like a guy that’s why she was annoyed the way I dressed.
“Alvin Ma’am”- He immediately answered, he was so confident. He even didn’t mind CEOs’ strict tone. I guess have a lot of work when it comes to talking.
“How do you know her?”- CEO asks, while looking at me as if I have done something wrong with before she turn her glance at Alvin
“My brother helped her at shool, that’s why I knew her”- He smiled to her so as CEO
“Brother? The guy you’re with earlier?”- Even with a smile I can see the sassiness while her eyebrows was up
“Yes. He just went outside because someone called him”- He said seriously, so serious to show her sencirity but not that serious to the point that he wants some trouble or something
“Alvin, Dad wants us to go home because we are ha-----“- he paused to saw that Alvin does not alone know that CEO and my father is presence right now.
“Ahm. Good afternoon Ma’am, Sir”- He said shyly to the both of them
“Good afternoon hijo, I supposed you’re the brother?”- CEO ask him
“Yes po, I am Rigel”- He said and then he introduce himself, the both of them was kinda good man
“So? I hope you can stay for dinner? I want to thank the both of you for what you did to Maives”- I don’t know if she was asking of ordering, the tone of her voice is so unbelievable
“We would really love to stay Ma’am, but our Dad called he wants us to go home it was an emergency he said”- Rigel said in apologetic tone, I guess it is really emergency afterall.
“Oww? Okay, maybe next time then. The both of you is always welcome here, I hope next time we could together to thank the both of you”- CEO said with a smile to them
“Thank you so much for the inventation Ma’am sir, and Maives, I hope your fine”- He smiled at me, a warm smile that really glad I am fine
“We really need to go Ma’am sir, thank you so much for your kindness”- Rigel said to them and both them smiled at me
“I’ll ask the guards to take you home, so that the both of you won’t need t wait a grab or something”-Dad said to them.
“Its okay sir, we can handle it”- Alvin said rejecting my dads’ offer
“No hijo, I insist. Atleast it’s the only thing I could repay you from what you did instead of a meal”- My Dad said to them smiling
They just nod to the offer og my dad then get inside of Dads’ expedition car before the driver drove them to their places. From that moment on a friendship started, I didn’t know just because of that simple incident brought the three of us to a friendship I didn’t expect to have.
Three monhts has passed since that horsed incident happened, also three months has passed that brought me to a friendship. I have so much to do in just a day; I get to school in the morning then in the afternoon until late at night I am at company being a trainee, just what CEO wanted. She wants me to start from the bottom; she doesn’t like consideration at all.
I started from the bottom: that is what CEO wanted me to do. To learn, she wants me to gain what I deserve. She will scold me most of the time; sometimes I heard that they didn’t expect CEO to have that kind of strictness even though I am a family member. I understand her from where she was coming, she just want me to understand how it feels to be loaded with so much work, she wants me to know how it feels to be bossed around by someone.
One of the hardest thing to do is, avoid being absent in my work. I am so tired from school, but then I still need to go to work, I can just have leave work when the order comes from CEO, sometimes I just have to leave the work when I need to do another work like to close a deal or something. I barely get some sleep because after work, at home I still need to do my homework sang projects to pass in my school; sometimes I wish I have a coma for a week. I am so tired.
“Okay class, together with your groupmates, I want you to make a fliers promoting the kind of business you like to pursue. Any business would do, the fliers should contain a small detail about your business, but those small detail should be enough to encourage the people to invest your business”- our English prof. said.
Yes, even I took business course I still have English subject to deal to.
“It will be pass on Monday next week”- The prof. said again before she left us to do our job
“Okay guys, lets just make a group chat for this project and assign our task to make the project and finish it as soon as possible. It’s also gives us time to go home today to rest and think of ways for this project to be more effective or something”- Rigel said to us, i didn’t disagree to him cause honestly I just want to go home and sleep. I am so tired.
“Are you okay?”- He asks, when he notice that I wasn’t paying attention to anyone and just agreeing.
I usually complain you know, but today I just nod to ll the suggestion. I had to finish the report I need to pass to work today, I barely get some sleep, I don’t even know if I blink an eye last night, I just notice that is already morning and I still need to go to school.
“Yeah, I just barely get some sleep last night but I am fine”- I said to him, yes I am really fine but really wants to see my bed and hug my pillows then fall asleep.
“Barely got sleep because of work?”- he ask worried about me, and then I just nod to him like I don’t even have the energy to say something
“Come, lets get some lunch together”- he said to me and then I look at my watched to know if I have a spare time to have lunch with him
“Come on, we can get kuya from his room, his schedule got move earlier”- I just nod to him when he said that because I still have two hourse to spare and I guess that’s more than enough time for my lunch.
