Chap 45

The next day I went to work early. Even though I wasn't doing anything yet, my body seemed to be mentally beaten.

"Jazzie!" Ken greeted me warmly as I entered our workers' room.

I immediately frowned at the enthusiasm he showed. "Are we receiving our 13th month pay already??" I asked

"It's only September, Jazzie. Are you having a hard time?" he replied sarcastically and then pulled me towards somewhere. "But with the amount of food sent to you, it's like you're celebrating Christmas," he said and pointed to the table we were using.

My lips parted as I stared at the food served there. There’s rice, marinated chicken, fried eggs, bacon, hotdogs, pasta, salads and...

"Lechon?" my tone rose slightly when I saw the cooked piglet.

"A man brought that earlier," Ken said.

I turned to him and forced myself to act normally even though my heart was pounding in nervousness..

"Y-You know him?" I asked.
