Loving A Heartless

Chapter 2

I have been working for the Montereal company for a few months and almost every day I am insulted and scolded by Mr. montereal I can't do anything because the salary here is big.

"Ms. Santiago bring me coffee here .." when I heard that I quickly went to the pantry to make coffee.

Carrying coffee I knocked on his office

"Mr. montereal here's your coffee." moreover the door was opened.

I saw him typing on his Laptop, he didn't look at me so I just put it in front of him when it suddenly spilled.

The coffee were spilled on the papers on his table!

I was confused to look for a wipe but there was really nothing so my hand was the only one I was wiping I stopped wiping when I heard him.

"What the fck did you do?!" He said angrily to me I would almost bow down in fear.

I closed my eyes and prayed that he would not fire me!

"I-Im sorry Mr. Montereal l-I didn't mean to .. so-sorry" I said nervously while still bowing my head.

"Unintentionally ?! You're so stupid Ms. Santiago! These papers are so important! Fck!" I refrained from crying because it hurt to speak.

"But–"

"You're not going home Ms. Santiago make a new one! I need this tommorow morning! Get out and bring those papers to the garbage!" He said authoritatively so I quickly carried that swelling.

It's already eight o'clock in the evening and I'm still not finished I have a lot more to do and I'm very hungry.

Mr. Montereal, on the other hand, still hasn't come home inside his office.

I really want to go home!

I was in the middle of work when the door of Mr. Montereal's office opened.

"Are you done?" Its a cold question to me

"Not yet sir .."

"Okay." It simply said and passed me by.

I just kept doing what I did.

in the middle of working my stomach suddenly swelled.

I took a deep breath, I haven't eaten since afternoon.

I need to save money as much so that I can have an operation for my mother, I feel so sorry for her, when I was a child I saw how hard it was for mama to support me, she tried not to make me hungry, it's okay to her not to had nothing to eat as long as i am full.

Mama is sick and needs an operation, I can only save money up so that mama can be treated, I smile when I think that I will soon be able to treat mama, I love her very much even though she is not my real parent.

She adopted me and treated me like her real daughter, she dressed and made me look like a human being so I would do everything to treat mama.

I stopped in thought when the door of Mr. Montereal's office opened.

Mr. Montereal came out.

and as usual it has no expression.

It looks like it's going home.

He looked at me so I quickly went back to work.

"Aren't you done yet?" Its an earnest question to me

I nodded nervously

"Yes, I'm sorry Mr. Montereal"

"Don't go home until you didn't finish those, I really regret why I hired you in my company. You're not good, you're stupid." He said and leave me speechless

I just bowed my head, i feel a pain in my chest for what he said to me.

I restrained myself from crying

I have to get used to those, yeah right.. if I want to last here I have to be good and get used to Mr. Montereal.

It was 10:00 in the evening when I finished what Mr. Montereal ordered me to do.

I stretched first before standing up

Finally I was done, I put away my belongings and I just went out alone here on the floor so I quickly left as well as I caught the other janitor cleaning so I said goodbye to them.

when I got out of the company I went to buy a dish for my mom and for me.

I just bought a ten peso of noodles and pickled beans, this is the only food I can afford for right now.

I'm still saving money up for the operation of my mother

I ride on the tricycle and just got off the corner because I was just going to walk home.

when i got home i caught up with mama.

I shook her hand and hugged her.

"How are you ma?" I asked her

"I'm fine nicola, don't worry" even when it weakened she still managed to smile at me.

I feel sorry for mama, I want her to get well, don't worry, I'll just be patient soon.

I took a plate and put rice as well as the dish I bought.

I approached mama and fed her.

" Open your mouth, mother let me fed you" I said with a smile.

"Thank you so much Nicola, I can eat alone" she said to me but I just smiled.

"Just be patient, mama okay? You'll be healed soon" I said with a smile.

"Nicola, you don't have to do this ..." She said tearfully.

"Don't cry mama, I want you to be healed, I don't want to see you suffer, I can't" I said crying.

Mom held my hand

"I love you so much daughter and I'm sorry if I I'm burdening you—" I immediately cut off what mama was going to say

"Ma don't say that please? It's my responsibility to take care of you because you are my mother, so don't say that ma .."

"How's your work son?" Mom asked

"Ah, it's okay .. My boss is so kind to me" I said and tried to smile

"Really? That's good, you always be careful huh?" mom's reminder

"Yes mama" I replied with a smile.

When I finished feeding mama and giving her medicine, I put her to sleep and I ate.

I had no food this afternoon.

I'm finally ready to eat.

Until now, I am still hurt by what Mr. Montereal, maybe I'll just understand him, maybe he's just going through something so he's like that.
