"Achoo! Achoo! *sniff *sniff Urgh!"
"Maam, you dont seem to be in good health. Okay lang po ba kayo? Can I get you something?" Shiela said with concern.
"No, I'm okay. Just *sniff bring me coffee"
Shiela immediately makes coffee for her boss and gently placed it on her table.
"Thank- Haaa-haaa-haaa-achoo!" Aly coveres her nose and mouth "I'm sorry, excuse me" and she went to her bathroom.
When she's back from the bathroom sheila is no where to be seen. So she settles down to her desk and continues her paperworks. Minutes later Shiela entered her office with heavy breathing.
"Where were you?" Aly raised a brow.
"I bought you medicine maam. Please take it" while handing the medicines.
"I'll take it later" Aly said and put her attention back to the papers. Then she heard footsteps of Sheila walking towards the door.
San ba nagpupunta tong babaeng to? She thought to herself.
"Maam, please take it" Shiela while handing a glass of water this time. She entered without Aly noticing it.
Aly couldn't believe how persistent Sheila could be so she has no choice but to drink the medicine. Then she saw shiela's lips form a smile.
"May sakit ka ly?" Gretch suddenly entered the office with Vic when they saw aly take the medicine.
"Sipon lang. Mawawala din agad to"
"Sa ganda ba nman ng nurse mo, gagaling ka agad" Vic commented then shiela blushed.
"Damoves mo Victonara, ang luma!" Gretch caught Vic's gestures.
"Shut up!" Vic then looks at Shiela "Sana ako nlang si Aly"
"Selos ka na nyan?" Gretch crack a joke to Vic.
"Tssss" Vic rolled her eyes to gretch and shifted her attention to Aly "Baka nakuha mo yan sa hospital?"
"O baka nman pinaguusapan ka?" Shiela inserted "Ay sorry po" then looks down.
"No its okay. What do you mean by that anyway?" Aly asked Shiela.
"Uhm... for example, you are the topic of some chat or anything..."
"Well, if I know people around me does that everyday" Aly let out a bitter laugh.
An awkward silence engulf them. Until Gretch breaks it.
"So ly, since you seem to be under the weather, better not go with us at the other client meetings. Take a rest"
"No. I'm comming wi-"
"Wag na matigas ulo baldo. Pahinga ka na. We promised aby that we would look after you" Vic while tapping her friends shoulders.
"And baka mahatchingan mo pa yung mga clients natin, they might withdraw and its all your fault" Gretch said then everyone in the room giggled.
"Yuck Gretta" Aly while hitting her friends shoulder.
"Gotta go ly. Baka malate pa kami eh" Gretch saying to aly then looks at shiela "Bang, ikaw na bahala sa boss mo ah? Paki alalayan nlang papuntang elevator"
"Yes maam gretch" Shiela nods.
Gretch and Vic are walking towards the door but Aly and shiela could still hear them.
"Who's bang?"
"Shiela"
"Why bang?"
"Its her nickname... duh!" She rolled her eyes.
Then Vic hits Gretchens head maybe because of how she replied or, we might not know, because on how close Gretchen and Shiela is.

-Earlier-
Alyssa is driving her way to ValCorp tower not knowing someone is tailing her.
"If you wont tell me, I'll find ways" Dennise said with a smirk.
She continued to tail Alyssa until they reached a very tall tower. Dennise's jaw literally dropped when she found out that she is at ValCorp Tower.
She saw the tall morena girl vallet her car. She entered the tower with everyone bowing and greeting her.
Dennise makes a call to Ella "Besh, I need your help"
"Why? What happened?" Ella started to get nervous.
"We'll talk about it later. Nasa coffee shop ka? Pupuntahan kita jan"
"Yup. See you" she ended the call.
Dennise drove herself to Ella's coffee shop. And it only took her 10 minutes of drive because the shop is just near the tower. Dennise entered the shop and scans her friend. But Ella saw her first.
"Dennise! Whats happened?" She asked as she got closer to her friend.
"Pasok muna tayo sa office mo besh. This is a really big problem" Dennise overactingly said.
They entered Ella's office and Dennise went straight for the laptop on the desk. "Anong hinahanap mo besh?" Ella asks.
"No way...." Den said while covering her mouth with her hands.
"What are you talking about? Let me see" Ella turned the laptop to her "OMG! Its the night and shining armor!" as Ella jumped up and down.
"No no no! Its my worst nightmare!" Den said and tweaked herself.
"Nightmare?! Besh, you meant wetdreams!"
"Pwede ba Ella, I'm being serious here" she rolled her eyes.
"Whats the problem ba?"
"The problem?! The problem is her! Siya!" Den hysterically said while pointing the laptop screen.
"And why is that?!"
"Because she is Alyssa Valdez! Valdez!"
"I know magulo tlga ang buhay ng mga Valdez pero besh, so what?"
"You dont know besh." Den shook her head " And its better that you dont" she almost whispered it.
"Oh btw besh, how did you know her name?"
"Huh? I-I asked her..." Den said not looking at Ella.
"Really now? Masamang magsinungaling Dennise" Ella wiggled her brows.
Den sighs "Uhm... well... I followed her car then... Basta!"
"Did you just stalk her?!" Ella exclaimed.
"Of course not!"
"Ewan ko sayo besh, last time we talked moron pa tawag mo sa kanya tapos ngayon may pangalan na. Baka next time na kita natin babe na ha!" Ella laughed hard then stopped when she saw Dennise glared at her.
"To a girl?! Are you serious?!"
"Wow besh, sayo pa tlga nanggaling yan ha"
Ella said this because new studies shows that both eggcell can be fertilized through natural process. And this is greatly confirmed by many.
"Duh besh, were still filipinos. I cant handle constructive criticisms you know" Den tried to reason.
"Ang OA mo tlga Dennise! Stop over thinking and just let love do its job" Ella and winked at her friend.
Dennise again, just rolled her eyes and let out a deep sigh. "I dont think I can love anymore"
"Really? Eh sino yung nagpadala ng super duper daming flowers sa office mo?" Ella said while wiggling her eyes.
"How did you know that?!" Dennise as she comes to her feet.
"Tasha" while crossing her arms.
"Seriously? Kanino ba tlga nagtatrabaho yang babaeng yan?"
"For you, as a secretary and for me as a spy" she causally said.
"Ewan ko sayo. And if were talking about that arrogant guy, sorry to tell you but I dont like him"
"No! You better like him para sakin na si Moron!" she said while grinning.
"No way!"
"And why is that?"
"Because you dont know her!"
"And you do?" Ella raised a brow.
Dennise just let out a deep, deep, deep sigh. Sana nga di ko nlang siya nakilala.
