Vexed 06: Mere Catching Up
David’s P.O.V.
“Hi, Dave! Sir Liam booked for an afternoon meeting—two o’clock sharp at the Emerald Conference Room,” Vanessa enthusiastically informed me as soon as I got out of my office.
Her smile was so wide that it could even reach her ears. I also noticed her dangle earring when she tucked her hair at the back of her right ear. Kanina ay hindi pa naman niya ito suot. She was wearing a cropped-top white sleeveless shirt and a long-pleated maxi black skirt.
Pagkatapos niyon ay muli na niyang ibinalik ang atensiyon sa harap ng computer. Ate Trixie provided her a laptop and a second monitor—na ang specs ay higit pa sa kung anong mayroon ang ibang secretary dito.
Aaminin kong hindi lang secretary paper works ang pinagagawa ko kay Vanessa, kung hindi pati na rin ang ibang urgent na AutoCAD reports. And I must admit, she didn’t disappoint me e

David’s P.O.V.“It’s okay, but can I ask you a favor? Pwede bang huwag ka nang mailang sa akin? I mean, just think that I’m only your classmate and not your boss. That way, you will be able to talk to me without any uneasiness or hesitation!” I said, then I tasted the mushroom soup. The appetizer was free here too and the best part? It was truly delicious!“Pasensiya ka na, Dave ha? Nakakailang pa rin kasi eh! Hmm… alam kong hindi naging malalim ‘yong pinagsamahan nating dalawa noon. But after seeing you during the interview, parang bigla na lang bumalik ‘yong lahat. I know that everything was already buried in the past, but I couldn’t help and be guilty on what happened to us,” Vanessa confessed and she took a sip of her iced tea. Hindi na siya nagsasalita, pero parang nangungusap pa rin ang mga mata niyang nakatingin sa akin.“Don

David’s P.O.V.Feeling a surge of happiness, I expected Kuya Liam to be followed by a young and voluptuous architect but it didn’t happen. Now, it felt like the perfect ambiance was slowly covering me in a fucking distress. It was as if my soul was flying with too much anticipation earlier, but now, everything in front of me became distorted.Okay, epic fail! But where is she?Ah, baka nag-CR lang.At the last minute, gusto ko pa ring umasa. What was iconic here was the fact that all conference rooms were having an ensuite restrooms, so sana ay dito na lang siya nag-CR. Nevertheless, I didn’t want to give up. Gusto ko pa rin siyang makita.The door of the Emerald Conference Room was already closed and it was crystal clear that this meeting only required the presence of me and Kuya Liam. That was when

David’s P.O.V.“But why? Even though you’re now a Section Head, you’re still one of the best engineers the EGC has! You know that! This one is a very in-demand and high-cost project hotel here in the Philippines, David. This is our top priority, that’s why I have already assigned this to your team!” Kuya Liam narrowed his eyes as he raised his voice, with his forefinger impatiently pointing at the transparent envelope in front of him.Dave, wake up! You were no longer a foolish teenager nor an engineering student who would always chase after her.Kuya Liam must be very disappointed at me, but do I have a choice? Gusto ko lang namang maging totoo sa sarili ko. Ayoko siyang makatrabaho. Ngayon pa lang, I could say that working with her would be an entire disaster!“This is the very first time that you are neglecting a

David’s P.O.V.Still dazed about how things went through, I came back to my office and began scanningherprofile. It didn’t even cross my mind that the lady architect was none other thanher.Napasubo na rin naman ako sa proyektong ito ay lulubusin ko na ang pagkakataon. Before meeting her in person, I should have known some recent details about her. Well, as we always had the famous saying: ‘Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.’Damn it! I didn’t see this one coming.How would I have ever expected that she continued her post-graduate studies at Harston University in the US after she graduated at the TU Munich in Germany, when all I did before was just to forgether? I wasn’t even prepared for this and I felt like being slapped with the sudden t

David’s P.O.V.I closed my eyes as my heart leaped for a second, after remembering some of those moments that we shared together at the said famous bridge. Those happy memories that she just ruined effortlessly. Those fucking initials—DC and AC. Those remarkable moments that I had already forgotten.Oh, well! Who am I fooling with in the last sentence?I gently massaged my forehead. The memories were like ghosts that seemed to be haunting me every night!Hindi ako kailanman nakalimot. But how I wished I did, para hindi sana ako nagkakaganito!Damn it! I know, I did it… butoverall, I failed! She was a dream came true for me, but a nightmare to deal with.Back then, I tried. I tried the best that I could just to forget everything about her—everything about us. Lahat na nang masamang ba

David’s P.O.V.It was already one-fifty in the afternoon. Actually, kanina pa akong one-thirty rito sa Diamond Conference Room—the largest meeting room in the EGC located on the thirty-second floor.We only had ten more minutes before we start the meeting, and everyone was already here except for that one great lady architect! Describing her as great turned out to be too sardonic for me.Well, in contrast with her achievements, I guessed that she doesn’t know how to do time management and proper work-life balance. As much as I knew, she was only living at *ALeour Residences in Ville Park, and that was only a fifteen-minute drive to *Alabana.The EGC was just located along the *Zambia Road near Alabana, tapos male-late pa siya? Tuesday ngayon—walang traffic at hindi naman rush hour. Dapat nga ay pumasok na siya kanina pang umaga! Sino ba naman ang

Athena’s P.O.V.[December 2015]“Dad, you’ve got to be kidding me! Why do I have to be sent here and work at EGC? I thought that I will be working in our own company? Honestly, I’m not even expecting it to be here!” I was talking to my dad over the phone, and I couldn’t help my nostrils to flare in anger.“You told me that I would only stay here for a few days after I visit Helena and Mom’s graves. And after that, I would soon fly to Japan! What happened now?” pahabol ko sa kanya.It was like… I was easily fooled and everything about our earlier discussion was just a prank!Kahit kailan talaga ay ang labo niya! I was deceived that The Charmed Hotel was our own company’s project, and it would be constructed in Japan. Hindi naman pala!My twenty-four-hour fligh

You’ve showered me with material things. You gave me everything your power could give where sky was the limit.
