I WOKE up because of the sunlight hitting my face.
This is another bless day Thanks to God!.
I walk towards my Veranda.
'Hmmmm...!' Malamig na simoy ng hangin ang agad yumakap sa akin. This is what I like about Baguio every time I woke up in the morning.
After a few minutes of contemplation, I decided to go inside to dress up.
I'm just wearing above the knees simple white dress. Color tan two inches stiletto, for today's outfit.
I owned Coffee Shop here in Bagiuo City.
Sweet Heart Coffee Shop
I took my leather purse on the sofa and left the condo.
"Goodmorning Ma'am Jasmine." Greets of my staffs.
"Goodmorning too." I greet them back.
Lumapit sakin si Denece, she's the only waitress here.
"Ma'am Jas, hindi po nakapasok ngayon si Roy, may sakit daw po ang kanyang Inay , wala daw pong mag aalaga." Anunsyo ni Denece.
"Ganon ba?... I understand, pakisabi na lang get well soon sa Inay nya and sent some cake to him." Bilin ko.
Roy is just seventeen years old. But he's working to feed his family.
I remember when he insist to work in my Shop, nung una hindi ako pumayag dahil menor-de-edad pa lang ito. Well in physical appearance he don't look seventeen, He's tall. mas matangkad pa nga siya sakin ng kaunti.
But when I didn't accept him, because of his age. I just saw him in Market... bitbit ang malalaking kahon. He is just seventeen but he was lifting heavy boxes, My Gosh!.
I talk to him and accept him as a waiter at doon ko din nalaman na siya na lang ang inaasahan ng Nanay at kapatid niya na mas nakaka-bata sa kanya. I feel pity to him. He's too young to work! In God sake!.
"Yes Ma'am." Sagot ni Denece at umalis na ito para gawin ang sinabi ko.
Roy was not around, so I need to perform as a waitress.
"Ma'am kaya na po namin to." Mark said. Bago pa lamang siya dito, almost two months at isa siya sa mga lalaking crew dito. In total I have 3 staffs, Denece, Mark and Roy.
"No it's fine, wala rin naman akong gagawin." I said. One of our customer call our attention.
Iniwan ko si Mark at pinuntahan yung customers.
"Yes Ma'am.. Sir, what can I help for you?" I asked the two couples.
They said what they want to order and I wrote it all.
"Just a minute Ma'am, Sir." I smile at them and give the list of orders in the counter.
Denece prepared the orders.
After a minute, the orders are ready, tinulungan ako ni Mark na bitbitin iyon dahil may karamihan ang order nila.
"Here's your orders, Ma'am, Sir, please enjoy." I smile at them and go to the other customers.
Lumipas ang ilang oras, patuloy pa rin ako sa pagtulong sa pag seserve sa mga customer. Mark was not around, he send some stuff to Roy's house.
"Ma'am, Mark texted, he's on the way back here." Denece said.
"Okay." Inilibot ko ang aking paningin sa buong cafe, mukang okay naman na ang lahat.
"Denece, Im just in my office. Call me if you need help and when Mark arrive." Bilin ko.
"Yes Ma'am!" I nod at her and walk toward my office. I take off the apron and hang it behind the door.
I pick out my phone and check my emails. I also log in my social media account.
First I saw, pictures of Rochelle, she's at Paris with her boyfriend. I scroll down and next, I saw Kuya Francis pictures with his friends. Naningkit ang ang aking mga mata... sinisigurado kung siya ba talaga ang kasama ni Kuya Francis sa litrato... Tama! Si Alexis Sevilla nga!, but, why he was with Kuya Francis?. Kuya Francis was Andrea's big brother. Andrea was her bestfriend.
Alexis is a famous actor that's why I wonder why was He with Kuya Francis.
Knock! Knock!
"Ma'am, Nandito na po si Mark." Denece said nang sumungaw ito sa pinto.
"Okay, lalabas na rin ako." Denece nod and left. I log-out my account. I wear my apron and went outside.
IT'S A long day. Im little feel tired but I enjoy what I did. I like serving people who's likes our cake's and coffee's. Like it pleasure to me that they'll love it.
(After of work hours)
"Coffee Ma'am." One cup of coffee ang inilapag ni Denece sa mesa kung saan ako naka upo.
"Thank you, kayo rin uminom rin kayo, I know you all tired, please join to me." Nahihiya man. Kumuha sila ng sari-sarili nilang coffee at umupo sa table.
"Salamat po Ma'am, ang bait mo po talaga samin." Denece said.
"Ano ka ba Denece halos one year na tayo magkaka sama and I also appreciate your efforts here in Coffee Shop, I'm glad that you did your job properly." I smile at them.
"Ma'am, pinasabi po ni Roy ang pasasalamat niya sa 'iyo. Salamat daw po sa binigay niyong pambiling gamot ng Nanay nya." Anunsyo ni Mark.
"No problem, we're like a family here, so don't mention it." I felt like they're family, siguro dahil hindi ko kasama ang mga magulang ko dito.
Sa State sila ngayon nakatira, My parents have a lot of job to do.
Pagkatapos naming mag kape at mamahinga. Kumilos na kami para linisin ang Shop. It's already 8:00 pm. It's time to close the Shop.
9:00 pm, I arrived to my condo. I bought some foods from grocery store.
I just put the groceries in the table and go to my room to change. Mamaya ko na aayusin ang mga pinamili ko.
I take a half bath and wear, pajama and white sando. I didn't mind to wear bra cause' I'm just only here.
After I fix my self, I walk towards the kitchen and place the grocery in the can box and some of it I put in fridge.
Kumuha lang ako ng meat. It's already marinade. I fried it. After... I cook rice.
Nagtimpla narin ako ng gatas to gain my energy. While eating, I'm reading book. This is my hobby, always reading book.
When I finished eating, I washed my plate and drink my milk.
Nang masettle na ang lahat kinuha ko muli ang librong binabasa ko. I wear blazier at pumunta sa Veranda.
What a beautiful view. The light below the Veranda was perfect.
I sit in my single sofa outside. This is my favorite spot to relax and have peace. I enjoy may moment reading...
Sunddenly a loud music ruin my peaceful moment.
What the heck!? Sino namang tao na bastos, bastardo, walang modo, may sira sa utak at bugok ang magpapatugtog ng dis-oras ng gabi?! It's already freaking night!. Respeto naman!.
My peaceful mood already ruin. My anger boil. The loud music was coming from the condo next to her condo.
I don't even know na mayroon nang nakakuha ng pwesto na iyon.
I immediatly went outside and knock to the door next to mine. I'm angry!. Kulang na lang ay may lumabas na usok saking ilong.. I think this person don't have manners!, mukang kulang sa bakuna nung bata pa!. Hindi man lang nag-iisip na may taong nakatira sa tabi niya bago magpatugtog ng malakas! And this freaking night!! Arggg!
After a few hard knocks, the door opened..
My eyes in shock when I saw the person who opened the door.. No! Kinusot ko pa ang aking mga mata at baka namamalik mata lamang ako. Binalik kong muli ang tingin sa lalaking naka tayo ngayon saking harapan... Shit! Hindi ako namamalik mata! It's real! The famous singer and actor Alexis Sevilla was now in front of me!
"Is there's a problem Miss?" Tanong nito, I blink for a second, trying to ease the shock in my system.
"Meron!." Pilit kong inaalis ang paghanga sa kakisigan ng lalaking nasa harap ko ngayon.
Easy Jasmine! Calm yourself down!.. You need to be serious!
"What it is Miss?" Kita ko ang pag titig niya sa akin.
I put my hands to my waist and glare at him.
"For your information, your music was too loud, It's freaking middle of the night!" Reklamo ko.
"It just a music Miss, what's the problem there?" Aba loko to, hindi ata naintindihan ang sinabi ko!.
"Hoy lalaki! Gabi na! Sinong tao ang nasa katinuan ang magpapatugtog sa kalagitnaan ng gabi?! at ang lakas lakas pa!" Nang gigigil nako sa galit!
"Why are you shouting?" Talagang ginagalit ako neto.
"I'm shouting dahil baka hindi mo naririnig ang sinasabi ko dahil hindi kapa kumikilos para i-off o hinaan man lang yung tugtog mo!" kaimberna to!.
"I can hear you, Im not deaf, woman" Aba! Talaga naman--.. Aba sinaraduhan ako ng pinto wala talagang modo! Hmp! Bugok!
"Hoy kung wala kang magawang matino sa buhay mo mag bigti ka! Hindi yung nandadamay ka ng tao. It's already night, natutulog na yung mga tao samantalang ikaw nagpapatugtog ng kay lakas lakas! Bugok ka ba ha!?" After what I say, bumukas ulit yung pinto at kunot noong lumabas yung lalaki.
Lagot!
"What did you just say Woman!? Did you freaking said Bugok!?" his sharp eyes shot on me. Shit!
"Che!" Pagkasabi ko non, agad akong tumakbo at walang lingon-lingong pumasok sa loob ng condo.
Agad akong napa-dausdos sa likod ng nakasara kong pinto. Naalala ko ang talim ng mga mata ng lalaki. Malay ko bang maririnig niya yung pinagsasabi ko.
Napatalon ako paalis sa likod ng pinto ng may kumatok doon.
Shit! Ano gagawin ko!?
Nakatingin lang ako doon hanggang sa mawala ang mga katok.
Napasabunot ako sa sariling buhok nang naisip ang pinag-gagawa kanina.
What you did Jasmine?! Nakakahiya ka!. Alexis Sevilla!, famous Jas! Fay-mus!! Tas pagsasabihan mo lang ng bugok?!
Arggg!
The loud music stop. I feel nervous.
Pagkatapos ng ilang minuto, Thank God wala nang kumatok. Kukunin ko na lang libro na naiwan ko sa veranda at matutulog nako.
"Ayyy kabayo!!" My Gosh mamamatay yata ako sa gulat!.
Pano ba naman nakatayo sa Veranda ngayon si Alexis at worst.. nakatingin sa gawin ko~ sheteee~.
Agad agad kong dinampot ang libro ko sa single sofa at nagmamadaling pumasok sa loob. I locked the door in Veranda.
Isang malalim na bugtong hininga ang aking pinakawalan. Relax Jas! Relax. Whooo~
