Chapter 1
Papasok pa lamang ng opisina si Monique ay kunot na kunot na ang kanyang noo. Paano ba naman ay inabot siya ng ilang minuto sa pakikipag away sa security guard ng entrance ng kumpanyang pinapasukan niya. Bago lamang ang guard sa trabaho kung kaya't naiintindihan niya kung hindi siya nito kilala. Nag painit lamang ng kanyang ulo ay kahit na ipinakita na niya ang kanyang I.D ay ayaw parin siya nitong papasukin. "I'm sorry ma'am I just really can't allow you Inside of the building." Pag hingi ng pasensya ng amerikanong guard sa kanya. "Hah! I have showed you my identification card proving that I am an employee here! And tell you what 'SIR'! " May halong diin ang pag tawag niya dito ng sir. "I am not just an employee of this company. But I am Monique Suarez 'CEO' of EST. Powell's Corporation. So let me in, you are wasting my time!" Oo, siya si Monique Suarez, CEO ng malaking kumpanya dito sa New York. 28 years old pa lamang ay isa na siyang CEO. Well hindi na rin naman iyon nakapagtataka. She was a graduate of one of the most prestigious university in the United States of America. Not just a graduate but ranked first in the university during her batch. Magna c*m Laude sa kursong Bachelor of Science in Business Management. Nag aral din siya ng kanyang master's degree sa Harvard University kung kaya't trabaho na ang lumapit sakanya matapos maka graduate. "You are an Asian ma'am, most asian would do everything even tell lies just to get inside of this premises to ask for help or even solicit." Nag panting ang tenga ni Monique. 'How dare him insult my race?!' Ayaw niyang gumawa ng eksena dito dahil nakaka hiya iyon sa mga empleyado niya at mawawalan siya ng manners sa mata ng mga taong mataas ang tingin sa kanya. Kinalma na lamang ni Monique nang pilit ang sarili at magalang paring nakipag usap sa walang modong puting guard. "Sir, I don't have time to explain my position to this company nor explain my asian blood. Just please look after your security supervisor so he can tell you who I am because God! You are wasting my time and I've got a lot of work to do!" Nag titimpi niyang utos dito. Nasaan na ba kasi ang security supervisor nito? Dapat ay nandito ito at tinuturuan ng maayos ang bagong hired at tatanga-tangang guard na nasa harapan niya ngayon. Sumunod naman ito at tinawagan sa radyo ang security supervisor. Ilang sandali lamang ay dumating na ito at humahangos pa sa pag mamadali na lumapit sa kaniya. "Ma'am, I am so sorry for what happened my Guard doesn't mean to delay you this long, he is new to the job and does---" "Kung hindi ka lang sobrang tagal na dito ay tinangalan na kita ng trabaho kasama yang tanga mong empleyado!" Hindi na napigilan ni Monique na mag salita ng tagalog sa sobrang inis. Napakunot na lamang ng noo ang security supervisor sa pagka lito sa sinabi niya. "I, I'm sorry ma'am. What is that?" Gulong tanong ng guard. "Nothing! Just please next time make sure you orient your newly hired employees well so something like this won't happen again!" Tiningnan nya ng masama ang guard na kausap kanina. Napayuko na lamang ito. Marahil ay napahiya. "I have a lot of works to do. So I have to go!" Iniwan niya na ang dalawang guard na nakayuko lang sa paghingi ng dispensa sa kaniya. Tuloy tuloy nang pumasok sa opisina si Monique at padabog na ibinaba ang hermes bag na dala sabay pasalampak na na upo sa kanyang swivel chair. Hindi na niya pinagtuunan pa ng pansin ang mga empleyadong bumati ng good morning sa kaniya. 'Good Morning my ass! My day was already ruined!' Pabulong na kausap niya sa sarili. Lumapit kay Monique ang secretary niya na may dalang kape at naka ngiti nitong inabot iyon sakanya. "Schedule?!" Matabang na tanong nya rito. "Uhm you have a meeting with the board members at 8 am today, then meeting with the clients from Hong Kong. After that you have a lunch meeting with Mr. Liam Smith and---" "Cancel it!" Putol niya sa secretarya. "Ma'am?" Takang napatingin ito sa kaniya . Hindi marahil naintindihan kung alin sa nabangit na schedule ang i pinapa cancel niya. Napairap si Monique. "Cancel my lunch meeting with Mr. Smith. I am not in the mood to meet him today!" Yung kanong yun! Hindi na nadala. Ilang taon narin iyong nanliligaw sa kaniya at ilang beses nya na rin itong ni-reject. Hindi sa choosy siya masyado o ano, sadyang hindi niya lamang ito gusto. "Okay ma'am copy! Would you like me to read your schedule now, or ill just update you later?" Magalang na tanong ng secretarya. Inayos ni Monique ang mga papeles na kailangan saka iyon inabot dito. "Give me my schedule, I'll just work on that. I want you to go to the billings office and hand these over to miss Gregory 'only' this is a confidential document so make sure you give these papers just to her. Claro?" Matamlay niyang utos sa secretarya. Kumilos naman agad ito para sundin ang ipinag uutos niya. Ngunit bago ito umalis ay nag lapag ito ng donuts sa table niya. Her favorite! Napailing na lamang si Monique saka napangiti. "I will just thank her later" She noted to herself saka pinasadahan ng tingin ang overloaded nanaman niyang schedule. "It's gonna be a busy day!"
