Bilang PA ng isang Montereal kailangan kong magpa gitang gilas. Kumbaga I have to prove myself that I'm great at this work. Kung hindi ko yun magagawa walang silbi ang pagiging matalino ko.

Andito ako sa office ni Trace, I have my own table inside. My table  was put in the left side of the office.

It's been a month already since I worked here. Wala namang hindi magandang pangyayari. Normal na run sakin yung biglang may papasok na babae tapos hahalikan si Trace tapos kapag nakita ako, magtatanong kung sino ako. Normal lang din na ipakilala ako ni Trace sa kanila. At first, pinagbabantaan nila ako nang tingin dahil siguro akala nila naghahabol din ako sa amo ko but when I shown to them that I'm not interested with my boss, nagiging kampante sila. They don't see me as a threat anymore.

Ang dami kong ngang trabaho this past days eh. Parang na kasing naging yaya na ako ng sangganong gwapo na lalaki. Every morning pupuntahan ko siya sa bahay niya, kung si Nanay Linda, yung yaya niya since birth, hindi pa nakakahanda ng almusal niya, ako ang nagluluto at nagprepare lahat nang kailangan niya.

Mga around 8 am pupunta na kami ng hotel niya. Sasabihin ko sa kanya ang schedules niya, yung mga business meetings and etc. pag may hindi niya gustong puntahan ipapa-cancel niya kahit wala naman siyang gagawin, ang reason niya 'I need to rest for a few minutes'.

Kasa-kasama niya ako sa lahat ng meetings at pag nasa office kami, busy siya kakabasa ng files pero may days na wala talaga siyang files na dapat ireview aside from signing matters para sa iba't-ibang projects.

"Trace, mind if go out for some coffee?"

"Coffee? In the middle of the day?"

"Yeah. What's wrong with it? Besides I'm sleepy. I wasn't able to sleep well last night."

Right. We talked as if we're just friends. It's been a while already. I think its after a week when he talked to me and said 'don't talk with much formality and proper. Just make it casual'.

"Sure. Go grab some." He smiled.

Yeah. He already smiles a lot. Pakiramdam ko kasi kapag may empleyadong makasabay niya sa elevator, aside from saying respects parang naeestatwa sa takot at hindi na nagsasalita. I told him to loosen up and smile. I can't help but smile when I remember it.

        <<flashback>>

"Trace, stop doing it."

"What?"

"Stop scaring your employees my ghad. Nakita mo ba ang reaction nung isa, para siyang naiihi sa takot ni hindi makasagot nang maayos dahil natakot sayo." I said laughing, a bet exaggerated. Tinanong ko kasi yung babaeng taga Events planning department kanina, halos hindi siya makapagsalita dahil natatakot siyang sumagot dahil andun ang CEO. " I know that you have to put a gap or wall so that they will respect you, your appearance already shouts authority, just give least of it. It won't hurt. It's better for them to work knowing they have a great CEO, you know. Being strict is a must but you'll get them stressed with your strictness. Loosen up. "

He just looked at me. No, not look. It's a stare. A cold stare digging my soul clarifying what I just said. I felt like someone spill and throw me some cold water when I realize what I just did. "I'm sorry. I-i'm sorry trace. I didn't meant to offend you. I'm sorry, I have no right to ask you what to do."
