Maybe this Time

Eleven

Pinanood ko yung video na kumakalat ito yung video na magkasama kami sa park at artista na sya nito.

Sino ang kumuha nito? Bakit inilabas at anong pakay ng taong to?

Napahinga ako ng malalim hindi ko alam sa pagbalik ko ito agad ang bubungad sakin.

Binasa ko yung mga na sa comment section.

"Sino sya?"

"Hala baka side chick ni Mark?"

"Hoy Ang panget nya!"

"MarIanna lang oy!"

"Stay strong MarIanna!"

"Mas bagay pa si Mark at Ashianna. Sino ba yang babaeng Yan?"

I stop reading dahil naninikip na ang dibdib ko.

Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko may meeting pa ako mamaya pero parang ayoko umattend dahil dito.

Pero napabalik ang attention ko sa cellphone ko ng naramdaman kong nag vibrate iyon.

From: unknown number

Hey princess did you enjoy your vacation? Hmm what if I say that your uncle is one of the suspects?

I drop my phone after I read that message. I don't know what to feel anymore. Is this person is telling the truth?

My uncle? How come?

Mabait si Uncle Warren sa akin naalala ko pa ang pa welcome nya sa akin noon.

"Miss Mika the board members is here," paalala ni Jacob sa akin.

I guess kailangan ko munang itabi lahat ng problema ko at unahin tong trabaho iisipin ko na lang lahat pag katapos nito.

Tumango ako kay Jacob na naghihintay sa sagot ko.

"Give me five minutes," Sabi ko at tumango sya sakin.

Lumabas na sya ng office kaya ako napatayo at pumasok sa Cr dito sa loob ng office ko.

Tinitigan ko ang reflection ko sa salamin and I smile.

"I can do this."

Pinikit ko ang mga mata ko at huminga ng malalim. I need to relax myself may meeting pa akong kailangan attenand.

Lumabas na rin ako after at dumaretso sa conference room. Pagpasok ko napansin ko lahat ng board member nag si Tayo naman sila at binati ako. Isa isa ko rin silang binati at pinasimula na ang meeting.

"Let's start," Sabi ko ng hindi nakatingin sa kanila.

May pumunta sa harap at inayos ang presentation.

"Where's my copy?" Tanong ko kay Jacob ng makita ko walang papel sa harap ko.

"Miss Mika sinend daw nila sa email mo,"

Parang naubos pasensya ko dahil sa narinig ko.

"How come na mag pepresent kayo without giving me a copy of your presentation? I need the hard copy hindi lang iyong sinend nyo. Paano ko ma rereview ulit?" Tanong ko sa kanila and all of them are looking to the presentor.

Kalma Mika hindi mo dapat pinag bubuntungan ang ibang tao.

"Sorry Miss," Sabi ng babae sa harap ko. Napansin kong nanginginig na sya.

"Proceed," simpleng sabi ko.

Inopen ko na lang yung sinend nila sa email ko kahit ang hirap ireview.

Tinuloy ng presentor ang pag pe-present and while looking at their presentation I received another text.

I should report this guy to the police.

Hindi ko na inabala pang tignan ang text dahil mawawala lang ako sa focus.

May biglang pumasok sa conference room at bawal pumasok pag may meeting dito at alam ng mge employees iyon kung kaya't nagtataka akong napatingin sa may pintuan.

I saw Mark, why heis here?

"Mika!" I didn't know what to react from that

He just shouted at me. What did I do?

I look at him and he looks mad. His eyes was pierced looking at me.

"Sir, sorry but we are in the meeting," pag interrupt ni Jacob.

"No! I need to talk to your boss," he said still look at me.

Why he wants to talk to me?

I look at the board members and they're gossiping and guessing what is happening.

"I'm sorry everyone, you can all dismissed." I said and walking towards the entrance to exit.

I know this scene will just make them confused to what is happening between us.

"Sumunod ka sakin," I said to him at nilampasan na sya.

Pumunta ako sa opisina ko at iniisip kung bakit bigla syang napasugod dito at Galit.

I sat at my swivel chair while he's standing in front of me.

"Don't look at me like that Mark. I don't know what you are doing here."

"You are the one who release that video right?"

"How come? I'm the one who's in the video too how come I have the copy of that? I didn't even record that. " I said calmly

So, that's the reason why is he here.

He Interrupt my meeting because of this stupid matter.

Mag sasalita na sana sya pero inunahan ko na.

"How can you accuse me when I'm also a victim? Are you thinking rightly? Did you think I did that because we broke up?" I ask him

How stupid of him to think like this. I smile bitterly.

"You know me very well. We have known each other for years. How come you can think like that? Do you think I'm desperate? Yes, I was desperate at first for you to comeback pero Wala akong ginawa dahil hinayaan na kita to be happy with her. I want you to be happy so bakit ko sisirain iyon kung alam Kong ikakasaya mo?"

" You are so selfish, Mark. so selfish. You didn't mind what I felt. When you broke up with me, Did you ask me if I wanted it? No! because you don't care about my feelings. "

I'm getting emotional dahil hindi ko akalain ito yung iniisip nya. Parang lahat ng sakit na naramdaman ko binuhos ko na.

He can't look at me right now after what I say.

"I'm sorry," he said

Pero bakit parang lalo lang ako nasaktan? Bakit parang mas sumama loob ko?

"Get out here I don't want to talk to you," I said without looking at him.

I wiped my tears. I didn't know I was crying the whole time talking to him.

Lalo lang ako napaiyak ng umalis sya. Hindi ko lubos akalain na ako agad maiisip nya na gumawa non.
