GREEN EYE

CHAPTER 7

ESTER BOARDING HOUSE

3 AM AT THE FEMALE FLOOR

“Ring….ring….”

“Hello?”

“Hello?”

“Damn! Whoever you are stop bothering me you asshole!”

Then the teenaged girl drops the call and then tries to sleep again but a loud footstep is what bothers her now.

She quickly gets up and then slowly gets out of the room, she manages not to make any sounds since her three roommates are already sleeping.

Following the sound of a footstep end her up inside the kitchen, it was a little dark inside so she turn on the light that makes her shout and passed out.

MHAVEL POV

I just can't seem to agree with what they want, I am now awake as early as I should be, I don’t know what to do, but every time I think about my Mom’s wish it leaves me no choice.

So now that I wake up early, I must prepare myself to go to the office and manage all the company issues and reports.

I don’t have any interest to talk to my Dad, I just can't for now!

After fixing my clothes, I head my way to the office and I can see the shock all over their faces, yeah right they didn’t expect I will be here early and be their boss for the first time.

Upon entering my office, I quickly walk towards my table and sit on my chair when I suddenly stop.

I feel like I saw something wrong, then I turn my gaze at the side part of my office and there she is, the girl with an attitude!

So she really embraces the fact that she will be with me huh? But I guess giving me respect is not really her option!

“So, you didn’t even want to greet your Boss?” I said and she just slowly looks at me from what she’s reading going up facing me

“Good morning!” she said then head back to what she is reading.

This b***h! She really has the guts to treat me that way huh! Let see how long can she stand on me as her Boss!

I just head back to my table and fix myself; I started to do all the paper works when suddenly I now need a hard copy of all these records, so I throw a look at this little b***h and got an idea.

“Sanhia, will you come over here!” I said while still looking at my documents

Then I saw her get her ass off the chair and walk towards me.

“Yes?” she asks

“Yes Ma’am... that is the proper way,” I said looking straight into her eyes.

I saw her rolled her eyes and honestly, it makes me smile a bit hahaha look at your reaction b***h! I mumbled to myself.

“Yes Ma’am?” she asks again and I just devilishly smiled at her

“See you can do it better…anyway, I need a hard copy of these documents, do something about it,” I said and she remains staring at me wearing her pissed look.

“I am not familiar yet with everything here, and I believe you have a separate secretary to do it, just command her,” she said that pissed me a little as well

“Oh yeah, well I was just appointed last week, so I am not yet familiar here as well, even working in this kind of field which I believe you have more knowledge about this than me, that is why you are here, to guide and assist me, have you forgotten?” I said and I can see that her mood suddenly changes.

“Fine, where should I get that document you need?” she asks

I pick up some sticky notes and pen and handed them to her.

“Here, write down your email so I can send it to you!” I said and she just rolled her eyes on me then grabs the sticky notes and pen and then leans forward a little to my table in front of me.

I can see her undergarments showing a little in front of my eyes, damn this girl! What a showy! Does she think she has a good curve than me? Duh!

A little move and the cheeks of her right breast are almost showing now, I kind of hate it but I feel like I am now showered by my sweats which I don’t know why I am feeling this way, maybe because I don’t feel comfortable.

I simply wipe my forehead before she turns her gaze on me then handed me back the sticky notes and my pen then head to her table.

I just secretly breathe out air, I just don’t know what just happen to me earlier, and I guess I am just really uncomfortable with her!

She starts to do things since I already sent her the document, so I continuously do the rest of the works.

Silence surrounds us inside my office when she suddenly burst out talking to someone on the phone.

“What? What do you mean they are returning the contract? That can't be!” she said that obviously pissed off.

“Ghost? What ghost? How does the ghost mean to all of this?” she said again then suddenly drops the call.

She quickly stands up then dials her cellphone again facing the window.

“Hello Sir, sorry to bother your vacation, there is some issue about our building in Quezon City, the Ester boarding house who just signed a contract with us last three months, the owner said that the issue about the rumoured ghost has become serious, one of the students is still under the state of shock after seeing a ghost in the kitchen” she explained, I guess she is talking to Uncle Alfred

I just rolled my eyes, ghost my ass! I just hate that kind of rumour, it almost ruins the safety of our ancestral house, believing in ghosts puts our house in the hands of those thieves!

I was in the middle of my thoughts when she came up to me that surprised me

“Yes?” I ask

“Here, Mr. Sebastian wants to talk to you,” she said then handed me the cellphone

“Yes, Uncle Alfred?”

“Hey Avhel, here is the thing, since you need to be familiarized with SGC, I guess you need to go with Sanhia to one of our clients place to fix some issue, you will learn a lot about it, those events are one of the important things we do, we make sure our client's trust is being taken care of and their issue is being resolved, so please join her tomorrow” he explained, I don’t know what to feel since I don’t know how to refuse coz my Dad will get mad at me this time I guess, so I have no choice, besides its just two weeks.

“Well, it seems I don’t have a choice,” I said and I can hear him laugh at it.

I handed back the cellphone to Sanhia who is looking at me seemingly waiting for me to discuss what Uncle and I talk about.

“Uncle Alfred said that you join me dealing with the issue on one of your client in Quezon City,” I said

“And?” she asks

I just give her a brow up before I response

“What time will be there?” I ask

“9 AM sharp, I will send you the details later,” she said

“Later…?” I said acting like I am waiting for her next word

“Later Ma’am….!” She said then quickly gets back to her table.

I don’t know but I felt happy seeing her pissed, I like how she looked defeated!

It is already, 5 pm and the office hour is almost done, I noticed that this b***h is now preparing her ass out of the office which I don’t like!

I am the Boss so I should go out first!

When she was about to get out I quickly walk towards the door and hold the knob before her, I just throw a look at her give her the smile of victory.

I can see how she rolled her eyes again and I just smirk at it.

Before going to the elevator I visit the washroom first to fix myself and freshen up then head my way to the elevator which is now closing, I quickly walk towards it when a woman suddenly passes me by inside the elevator.

Upon looking at her, I was about to blown-in anger seeing that b***h that is now inside instead of me!

She just gives me that annoying smile before the door closes and I hate it! That b***h is really getting into my nerve!

I just waited for another elevator and fortunately, no one is inside which I like, I hate the crowd, or even a few people compressing my space.

It just took me half an hour to get home, Dad won’t be around for a month with Uncle Alfred, they took a vacation for a while to fix some business issue in Macau.

When I enter my room, I quickly lay myself down to bed, God! This is the first I ever felt this tired but feeling satisfied.

I never work like this hard ever in my life, though it is tiring, I feel complete and somehow I am proud of myself as I accomplish something today.

I woke up early since the b***h girl will expect me to be at the place at nine am sharp, I just fix my things, eat a little breakfast then head my way to Quezon City.

I am not really sure where it is located but when I saw a huge building with the sign “Ester Boarding house” I knew this is the place.

I park my car and get out when I saw the b***h already talking to a woman; I guess she is the owner.

 I walk towards them and just wait for them to finish the talking, little later, she faces me with cross arms.

“I said 9 am sharp,” she said with a pissed face

“ I did, I am already here at 9 am” I response

“No you didn’t, I am almost done talking to the client!” she suddenly burst out which surprised me

“Whoa..chill b***h, you said 9 am sharp not before 9 am sharp!” I said then giving her a brow up as well

She just rolled her eyes at me then enters the facility.

“ I told the owner that we will do some slight inspection so there will be no one here but us if you are scared better stay outside,” she said which make me mad this time, the way she said it makes me feel like I am just a scary cat? Excuse me!

“Compare to you, I can even fight the ghost or whoever they are, don’t act almighty b***h, maybe you’ll need my help later!” I said then walk past her first.

She didn’t respond and just follows me entering the lobby.

We just check around it and we didn’t feel or see anything unusual, so we just head our way to the third floor, where the female student was staying.

“The student mentions that she heard a footstep from their room to the kitchen of this floor,” she said so we walk towards the kitchen but it was all good there, it just a simple kitchen

“Nothing here, I guess we are just wasting our time here,” she said again

I didn’t respond nor look at her, I just follow where she will be heading, but I was stopped when I notice something.

I let out my cellphone and turn on the flashlight since it is a little dim inside the kitchen.

I caught her attention and try to see what I am trying to look at.

“It is a footprint,” she said but aside from that I even notice something weird

“It isn’t a footprint of a human; the toes are quite longer than the normal human footprint,” I said and she also noticed it

We both look further for other clues, we check the refrigerator and it shows us some scattered bread crumbs, a piece of wrecked cheddar cheese and a handprint on one of the bottles.

On this part, I think of something that would really answer this mystery.

“What time did the student mention seeing the ghost? “ I ask

“It is 3 am,” she said

“Well then, let’s go back here at 3 am,” I said that make her look at me seriously

“What? Afraid?” I said then smirk

“I was just surprised knowing you also care for something, it’s a good start…Ma’am..!” she said trying to tease me, damn this b***h! I just really hate her!

We agree on my plan and we came back at 3 am.

We head to the third floor and the time we just step on the floor, I kind of feeling something, I suddenly felt heavy, then we heard a footstep on the hallway going to the kitchen.

We both run fast following the footstep until we reach the kitchen but we didn’t see anything.

When I was about to enter further inside the kitchen area, the b***h stops me then grabs a face powder then blow it in the air.

We both shocked to see an unusual creature, it's like a huge mouse spirit standing at the refrigerator and busy eating bread and cheese.

I can't stand just looking outside and not doing something so I grab the face powder pour a lot more than step into the kitchen and throws it to that creature.

I guess we startle him and so he runs past us to escape but the b***h accidentally grabs its arms and in a second it melts in the wind.

“f**k! What was that?” I said

“I don’t know either!” she responded while we both in a state of shock still wondering what just happen.

We both get out of the building still thinking about that huge mouse-like human thing and I noticed the b***h is not saying anything she seems to be silent after the time that she holds it then melts into the air.

I don’t know what to say next until I speak for no reason.

“Never mention this to the owner or anyone unless you want to be famous and be viral in no time or the SGC will be in a scandal, just tell the owner that we didn’t see anything we will just conduct a blessing to it, we also need to talk to the student, I guess making her know that there are people who saw what she saw and believes her would make her feel better and maybe we can ask her not to mention it to anyone anymore, we just need to assure her safety” I explained then get into my car then leave.

I don’t know what is going on with her, well I don’t care though.
