"Watch where you are going."the lady said when I bumped into her, causing me to wet her expensive dress.
"I'm so sorry ma'am, let me get some napkins for you". I panickly said
"No,it's okay next time just be careful...so,that you can't ruin someone's day."
Oh s**t.
I saw my manager walking towards us. She looked at me, then she looked at the disappointed customer.
I grab that opportunity to go to the kitchen.
" What happened outside?" My friend-s***h-workmate.
And before I could get a chance to answer her, my manager came.
"What is that,Penelope?! You've messed up not just once but twice today. Do you have a problem?" She asked me.
Yes ma'am, I have a f*****g problem.
"I don't have a problem, ma'am, " I lied. "I'm so sorry it won't happen again, ma'am."
" You know what...I think you really need to take a rest"
" No, ma'am, that won't be necessary. It really won't happen again."I can't take a rest. I have so many bills to pay,and taking a day off won't be a help at all.
"Take a rest and you will still have your full payment for today's job. Just rest first,no more arguments." She said, waving her hand in the air.
"You're one hell of a lucky girl. Now go, and spend time with your boyfriend or your mother or with whatever." Rylah said.
I walked to my locker to get my thinga.
I took my phone out when I read my boyfriend's message.
"Babe,where are you. I'm sick?" He texted me two hours ago.
I called him immediately.
One ring
Two ring
Thr-
"Hello?" He answered like he was out of air.
"Hey,babe, are you okay?
"Oh it's you babe,Yeah I'm a little bit okay now... because I heard your voice."
That made me blush.
" Are you with someone?" I asked when I heard another voice.
"huh?" He asked and he was still not breathing steadily as if he was doing some exercise.
"I'm asking if someone is there with you."
"I have no one here, babe."
" Then why do you sound like you're out of breath,Christian?"
" Oh!I just got home from a jog babe and why are you calling me on working hours? "
And you said you were sick. I'm not dumb
"Oh! Okay, I need to go back to work, I'm just checking on you."
" All you do is work and work. You have no time for me"
"Babe, you know, I have a responsibility. I'm my family's bread winner." I said, defending myself.
"Okay ms.bread winner"
"I need to hang up, I need to go back to work na."
"I love you."
"I love you more."I ended the call
Dali-dali kong kinuha ang mga gamit ko at nagpalig ng damit.
"Bye bij" i said to Rylah.
"Bye frenny...see you tomorrow...take care ingat palagi"
May take care na may ingats pa.
Rylah is Fil-Am. That explains why she is konyo sometimes and I'm trying my very best to teach her tagalog.
" How many times do I have to tell you ryl take care and ingat is just the same."I said pretending to be annoyed.
" Chill P...I was just teasing you...and I'm good na kaya mag tagalog...ikaw ba naman tutor ko...bye,love you." Sabi niya na nag flying kiss pa.
"Love you too" I replied.
I hurriedly walked out and decided to go to the market to buy some fruit for him.
I want to surprise him because he's so understanding and loving to me.
"Dito kana bumili ganda murang mura lang" sabi ng tindera
Only in the Philippines...you will be pretty if you're shopping on the market HAHAHAHHAHA.
" How much per kilo?"tanong ko.
"400 lang ganda"
bij so fckin expensive.
" Sge 1/4 lang po"
I paid her the money and ride a jeepney.
"Good morning guard... Is Christian there?" I told the guard I consider him as a friend too, because of course give been like going back here for two years.
"Good morning ma'am, Penelope...uhmm Yes, ma'am, he's there. Why don't you call him and tell him that you're coming?"he said hesitantly.
What's his problem?
"No need. I have a spare key...have a good day"I said
I didn't hear what he said because I got in the elevator and pushed to the 10th floor where his room is.
Why do I feel like something is going to happen?
*Ting*
I got out and took the key out of my bag.
I slowly put the key into the keyhole. I'm like an expert at being so discreet with my movements. We are trained well.
As soon as I opened the door...my jaw dropped.
There he is...the man I love on the top of some slut.
They look like they've seen a ghost.
"Babe,let me explain." Christian said, who instantly covered himself with some comforter.
"And here I thought you were sick."I said, almost having a break down.
No, this is not the time to cry.
Show him the b***h that you are. I said to myself.
" Babe,it's not what you think." The i***t son of a b***h said.
"Oh c'mon Christian...I'm more sexy and pretty than her." The clown said.
I looked at her as if I was looking at some crazy b***h.
"If that's the definition of sexy and pretty...then I prefer being ugly."I said, smiling.
"Babe,let's talk"
"We have nothing left to talk about,and you know that," I said, ready to walk out the door.
"So,that's it? You're just going to waste our 2 years of love and just because of this? Oh, c'mon give me a chance to fix this,"he said while on his knee.
The fcking audacity this asshole has!
"You should have thought about that...the moment you put your small d**k in some bitch."
"And here's your grapes...hope you'll feel better soon." I threw him the grapes and walked towards the door.
I realized I shouldn't have thrown the grapes at him,that was so expensive for a cheap like him.
I'm just so glad I didn't raise my hand on that b***h. She's not worth it.
I walk inside the elevator and that's the cue for me to cry my life out.
I can't believe it...the man I loved cheated on me...the man I trusted. The man who promised the world for me...Fuck all those promises.
Two years— I wasted two f*****g years of my life.
