Behind that Mask

Chapter 2. Mystery in Disguise

Ethan's pov:

“ahhhh sumasakit na ang ulo ko kaka isip. Na di distract ako kahit anong gawin ko para mawala sya sa isip ko na aalala't naalala ko parin sya. What's with that woman why she keeps on bothering me in my head?” tulala nyang sabi nya sa sarili nya habang nakatitig sa high rise building na pag mamayari nya.

“Sir Ethan your meeting with the clients will about to start ikaw na lang po inaantay.” ani ng secretary nya.

“Ok I will follow in a bit. "

Meeting room:

“A beautiful resort will rise in soon in an Island where the beautiful and a virgin island in Quezon province. This will be a 5 star resort and worth of investment. We talked already the residence doon. And they all agreed sa pag pa tayo natin ng resort since makikinabang naman sila. We bought the part of the land yet we agree na e trained sila para maging mga empleyado sa resort. If course we just hired an expert and will experienced employees to guide then we got 2 yrs para matapos ang construction and a year for preparation sa pag open ng resort. We will offer membership to our Pilot clients this will be life time membership then so on so forth.

Wha do you think Sir Ethan about the plan for our new resort.?

Sir? Sir Ethan?”

“Huh? Ah yes na review ko na ung plan and I like it all we have to so is to begin the plan as soon as ma set na ang budget for that. Lets just wait.. I don't like delays with the materials and make sure the residence there will be trained properly. Ok lets end this meeting”  ilang beses na to na di distract ako. I need a break.. I need to go somewhere else na malayo I need to refresh myself.

Few days later at Ethan's work. :

“Sir Ethan na handa ko na po lahat para sa pag alis nyo papuntang NYC and yiur sister too darating sya by tomorrow para sya mag substitute sa inyo.. And the New York office din po is ready for your arrival.

“Thanks Jessica."

Few day ago nakiusap ako sa kapatid ko na mag palit muna kami this the only way para ma ka focus ako sa mga business I don't need her inside my mind she is nobody to me. And I won't let myself drowned with that unknown woman.

A day after dumating na ang kapatid ko.

“Hey there dear brother,” sabay ngiti nya sa akin.

“So are yiu ready for New York? I dont know your reasons why gusto mo makipag palit sa akin but what ever it was I hope you will be comfortable sa NYC. I need this also masyado ng malamig dun so mas ma igi na rin na makalanghap ng hangin sa pinas.”

“Steff I know you can handle things here your my mentor so I don't have to worry in everything until sa pag balik ko. I trust you... "

“Leave it all on me bro dalawa nlng tayo after our father died few months medyi mahirap din sa akin na mag isa sa NYC. I am glad na makabalik din dito. Since dinto naman talaga ako nag start before I decided na mag handle sa office sa New York. I need something also. Besides mukhang maganda ang plans mo with our future resort in Quezon Province. I make it grand.

“Well after all the things that you have said.. Mas magiging comfortable ako umalis ng Pinas.”

“You take care my dearest brother see you.” ngiting pag pa alam nya sa akin.

“This is it See you New York bye Philippines.. Bye memories of her.”
