Chapter 12 - sweaty hands

I always go to work late, perk of being a boss. So by 10 AM I just get to the office while others have started their job already. Ron will be presenting his report from Cebu today. I will peek on his presentation. Dad always ask me to get involve in the business anyway. I'm allowed to get a seat on that long table. The meeting haven't started yet. But the stockholders are coming already. Mostly old men and woman who thinks they have a big dick. They are so cocky walking inside they treat themselves as gods because they have money. That's why regular people are so careful on how they act around them. I didn't squeze myself to the gushing people coming inside the convention room. I went in last. I didn't even inform Dad or uncle about it. I will be seating at the back I just wanna watch Ron on his presentation. He is in front preparing his slide show. Little by little the people settle down. The employees stayed at the back to standby for whatever help the presentor will need. Anyway I stayed with them incognito. Ron doesn't look nervous at all. He carries himself well he stands in front of men senior to him but he talked as if they are of the same level. I admire him even more with his inteligence. He look so smart explaining simple flow chart or maybe it just me. I'm just too in love with him that's why i'm exaggerating his discription. My brain is recording even the simple movement of his hands, or how he stands, how he blinks and how he talks. Gosh I'm so sick. I'm so obsessed of Ron. After 30 mins his presentation is over now the cocky old men and women on the long table can throw their inquiries and doubts to him. He managed to answer them all smartly. Anyway this things is just report from the activities in Cebu it is not his doing he is just delivering what happened in Cebu. So far its all good according to his report. They like how he interpret things in Cebu he pictures it beautifully and he guarantees success. I'm scared they will send him there more often when the company starts to actually operate in Cebu. I wish and I hope not. I want him here. They can send my uncle or my cousins. There are more who can do this job. Anybody with pair of eyes can do this job.

The next presentor is my cousin he will be talking about how to improve the sales here at the capital and more projects to be implemented. As Ron walk to a vacant seat the gentlemen on his line gave him a congratulatory handshake, maybe for a job well done. He seat next to the old man I hate so much the father of Veron Young. He gave him a hand shake as well and a slight tap on his shoulder but they didn't talk long. They settle down to listen to the next presentor. Ron accidentally looked on my direction, I gave him a wave that made his face light up into a smile. I took a vacant chair to seat next to him. The people on the long table were so surprised to see me joining the table. Even Dad and my cousins. They didn't say anything though. Mr Lucian the old man beside Ron from the right happily gave me a space. I greeted them with a simple nod. The presentation continued. I just seat there next to Ron trying not to make a noise. I hold Ron's hand. Father is looking at me. I know almost all of them they are just not saying it but I don't care. I'm so happy to be next to someone I love that is what matters to me. Ron looks sweaty from the stares of them. I can feel his tension on his hand. Just like what I expected the presentation is boring and monotonous. Everything is about money. Keeping the sales up and making more projects that will bring more money to the company. My eyes are in front but my brain is playing a scene of what I should do with Ron after work. His hand is soft like a hand of a woman but a little sweaty. I want to kiss it so bad.
