"Here's your coffee," ani Alex at iniabot sa akin ang kape.
It's saturday at inaya akong lumabas sandali ni Alex, the last few weeks were really exhausting. Maraming gawain at discussions, I must admit na it's easier to get into school here in the Philippines but it's hard to survive and pass.
It's just the voices of the people around us and the music in the café that fills the atmosphere. We're both silent, I'm checking articles online while he's just looking at me.
I looked up and caught his eyes on me, "why are you looking at me?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"Why? Is it wrong to appreciate this beautiful view?" He asked which made me look away from him. "Look who's blushing," he said in a smirked before sipping his coffee.
"Look who just stared at me for minutes," I said getting my Iced Coffee from the table.
We kept on bickering until we're interrupted by a couch, a sarcastic cough. 
"Am I disturbing something?" A girl wearing a beige suit with black crop top on a 2-inches heels asked looking intently at Alex.
"Ashley?" Alex said excited, he stood up and hugged her.
"It's been a while! How are you?" He asked excited. I suddenly felt out-of-place, so I just shut my mouth and continued scrolling through my phone.
"Won't you let me sit first?" She said annoyed.
"Oh, yeah please sit."
I felt a gaze on me. As soon as I looked up, I saw her looking at me.
"Oh, Hi. Nice to meet you," I greeted her and smiled. But instead of greeting me, I received an eye-roll. The Hell?!
"Can you get off that chair? I wanna have a talk with Alex," she said raising an eyebrow.
B*tch? Who the Hell are you to tell me what to do?
"Ashley, dito ka nalang. Don't bother Hana," Alex said persuading her.
She looked at him annoyed and sat on the other chair beside Alex.
They were just talking and this guy really doesn't care how am I feeling. Until it was an awkward silence between me and this girl when Alex left to go to the comfort room.
"So, Hana? You must be the talk of the school, huh? Hatid-sundo by Alex? And the fact na it's only been around a month? I must say you're pretty amazing," she said eyeing me.
Ayoko sa lahat yung kinakayan-kayanan ako. Not just because I grew up being respected by everyone, but I hate it when people lower than me, tries to pull me down to bring themselves up. I know how to respect people, but you should know your limits.
I smiled at her controlling my temper before standing up to get my bag. Hinablot niya naman ito at tinignan, "Burberry? What is this, a gift from your sugar daddy?" Nainis ako sa tanong niya kaya hinila ko ang colar ng damit niya at lumapit sa mukha niya, "And if I say yes?" I said smirking before going away from her ugly face.
"Where are you going?" Saktong dating ni Alex bago pa man ako hustong makalayo sa table.
"I have something important to do," saad ko bago lumabas ng Café. I wasn't lying tho, may kailangan talaga akong gawin. Nagka-problema sa company and I don't have any choice but to contact them, 8,457 branches of the restaurant we are investing in, are at risk!
Huminga muna ako ng malalim bago pindutin ang call button, na agad rin namang sinagot ni Dad.
"I heard about the news, how is it?" I asked immediately. He answered me immediately and didn't even bother to ask where am I, which surprised me.
"Do you need me there?" I asked concerned, for the company.
"Alright, I'll get ready."
I sent an email to my teacher that I won't be able to attend classes for the next three days because I have an emergency, I called Shane to tell her I won't be around for three days.
I took a bath, put some make-up on. Fixed my wavy hair and looked for some clothes. 
I looked at the mirror with a satisfied look. I am wearing a white crop top shirt from Celine, light beige trousers from Dior and a long medium-brown coat from Chanel. I completed the look with some accessories, my favorite disruptor Fila and lastly, my beloved 1.4 Million Dollar Hermes Birkin Bag with my initials on it.
"All done," I said smiling.
Lumabas ako ng elevator with my luggage at dumiretso sa parking lot. Agad ko namang nakita si Shane na nagpresintang ihahatid ako sa airport, agad akong pumasok sa sasakyan.
I received a text from Alex...
Are you busy? I wanna go there to hang out, we were interrupted earlier :(
I rolled my eyes at his message and Ignored it.
"And why is my girl annoyed?" Shane asked looking at me.
"Nothing, just some sort of pest. Nothing new," I said which made her chuckle.
I came inside the airport immediately to catch the fastest flight to SoKor.
"I'm sorry ms, but all of our economy flights to South Korea are full na po-"
"Who said I'll be taking economy class? I'm taking First class, in Korean Air. Got it?" I said taking off my shades out of annoyance.
"Uhm... Ma'am, that will cause you... 2,370 dolla-" she got stunned when she saw my Black Card.
Tila nataranta siya at dali-daling nagcall for assistance.
"I'm sorry ma'am, she's just a newbie. I'll be the one to assist your card po," tumango lang ako at dali-dali sila sa pagkilos. Pinaupo rin nila ako sa may couch at iniwan muna ang counter.
"Excuse me? Bakit iniwan niyo 'ko? Kailangan ba marami ang magasikaso dito sa babaeng 'to?" Pagduro niya pa sa akin which triggered me.
I stood up and faced her, tinaasan niya pa ako ng kilay.
Makapal ang mukha, hindi naman maganda.
"Ayoko sa lahat yung dinuduro ang maganda ko'ng mukha. Also, I am not just a young lady. Remember that," I said bago dumating ang nag-assist sa akin at ibinigay ang ticket, passport at card ko tsaka nag-bow sa akin.
"I don't want anyone to know about me being here, or else... Tanggal kayo sa airport na 'to," saad ko na tinanguan naman nila.
Humarap ako sa babae na ngayon ay nakatunganga na lamang, "You need to learn when and who you should fight."
I arrived at South Korea after around three hours, dumeretso ako sa office ng company at iniwan ang luggage ko sa guards.
As soon as I entered the building everyone stopped, some were shocked.. mostly the new employees, wearing their blue IDs. Ang iba naman ay agad na napatingin sa akin, even the employees at the front desk.
Tinanggal ko ang shades ko at inilibot ang mata ko, maraming new employees. Agad naman na nag-bow ang lahat ng employees sa akin na nginitian ko lang, tsaka ako tuluyang naglakad papunta sa elevator.
I was fixing my handbag and my watch when the elevator opened, revealing two new employees. It seems like they don't know me, ngumiti lang sila at pinapasok ako.
"CEO's floor please," I said in a serious tone. Employees barely hear me in such a bright tone, when it comes to work... I'm dead serious.
"Are you an investor?" Takang tanong nung isa.
"No," I answered in a serious tone.
"Why does she sound bossy tho?" bulong pa nu'ng isa.
Nang makarating kami sa CEO's floor ay lumabas na ako, unluckily dito rin ang puta nila.
Bubuksan ko na sana ang pinto ng office ni Dad nang pigilan ako ng isa sa kanila, "Chairman Yang doesn't like it when employees doesn't knock."
I smirked, "You know what I hate the most? When people tell me what to do," I said annoyed.
"Look Miss, we don't know who you are and we're not sure if you're an employee. You said you're not an investor, so we suppose you're an employee? Please knock first, that's one of the rules the chairman has given."
"Can you shut up? Your voice is annoying," Tanging saad ko tsaka binuksan ang pinto habang sila ay hinabol naman ako.
"Mr. Yang, we are sincerely sorry. We told her to knock first but she-" natigilan sila nang batiin ako ng boss nila.
"My daughter," he said smiling.
"It's been a while, appa."
