CHAPTER 2: CEO
Astrid Pov.
I already arrived in my company so I park my car in the spot then start walking to the entrance. The guards saw me and bow their heads as a sign of respect. I just nod and pass through them. Soon as I entered, the aroma of papers and new paint walls develop my nose.
It's been a while since I became the new CEO of this company and as the new owner I changed some of the things in my company and for the sake of my employees.
When I was held as the CEO, I decided to renovate the building. I build a cafeteria so my employees can have their lunch not minding the sun when they outside. I also tell the architect to redesign their tables, I told them to make it bigger and reliable. I also said to renovate my office. I want to it look simple but fascinating.
I walk towards the elavator and press the button. When the elevator stop I saw a lady wearing a office suit
standing still. She doesn't care tsk.
I enter and press the floor where my office place. I silently waiting for my destination when this lady started to speak.
"CEO office?" she asked, I just nod.
"Do you know? They say that the new CEO is cruel and heartless. She fires everyone without hearing their explanation. She's bad right? Tsk how I wish to meet her so I can slap her face." she said with bitchy tone. As soon I heard what she said my face became dark.
"What are you going there ba? You want to be fired din?" she added. Fired?
As soon as I reach my office I face her.
"Yes, I'm firing anyone who's not good enough to be my employee, but now I think you know the answer," I said making her confuse.
"W-what are you saying ba? Did you mean that you are-" and shocked was written on her face when she realized the whole thing. Pero bago pa sya makasagot ay nagsalita na ko.
"Ms. Serenity Madrigal?" I said taking a glance at her id and she nod unconciously.
"You're fired." and with that I left her speechless.

Naiden Pov.
Me and my friends are heading our way to my house. They decided to take a rest first. Tsk sila oo, pero ako? Nevermind. Busy ako kakadrive ng tawagin ako ni Jean, one of my friends.
I have five friends.
Jean Dazzle Garcia. He's parents own a hundred of restaurant around the world. He is a playboy not to mention his collections tss.
Ethan Julius Fajardo. A certified good boy. He's parents own transportation around the world that makes him rich.
Alexander Zin Alvarez. He's cold as ice just like me. Marami kaming napagkakasunduan dahil narin sa ugali namin. He's parents own the biggest news and radio corporation that makes him know everything bago pa mabalita.
Marissa Courtney Alde. She is fashionista and maarte. Her parents own the most famous clothing line around the world. She is also a majorette.
Jasmine Elise Cristobal. Just like Ethan she is good. She is like a fragile diamond that everyone wants to keep. Her parents own the most expensive jewelries around the world.
Kyle Naide Acodism. I'm a mafia Heir and they are my protector. My parents own the second biggest company around the world. We are also the second rank in Mafia world.
I was busy when Jean poke me again, My forehead creased and face him.
"What?" He didn't answer me instead he just point his finger to a car wait? A sports car? Take note that is the most expensive and latest sports car.
I wonder who is the owner of that car? I saw how their eyes sparkle even Xander. That's our dream car, hindi pa iyan nailalabas ay alam na namin ang itsura sa tulong nadin ni Xander.
I'm busy wondering who is the owner of that car when the signal light became red and Jean touch the handle to make sound. I glared at him but he just shrugged tsk.
"Let's see kung sino ang may ari, " he said and waited for the car window to open.
Naghihintay kaming bumaba ang bintana nya to see who's the lucky owner.
I was stunned by her beauty, Yes a girl. Her brown eyes that capturing everyone's attention, her kissable lips, her perfect face and her inoccent looks. God is she an angel?
Naiden wake up, this is not you.
Bigla syang gumawa ng ingay sapat na para mabalik kami sa katotohanan. I just give her some sign and I guess she understand it.
Hinihintay namin ang pag babago ng kulay na nagpipigil samin para magsimula.
And now it's green nakita ko ang pagbulosok nya. Ang bilis nya! How can a girl drive that fast?
But I manage to swift at ngayon ako na ang nangunguna malapit na sana ako sa finish line ng bigla syang nagdrift at nauna sakin pero imbis na tumigil ay dumiresto lang sya and left us dumbfounded.
* * *
Nakarating na kami ng bahay ko pero tulala pa din kami. It's my first time to lose and with a girl? Seriously? A powerful mafia heir lose over a girl?
Tsk pumunta na lang ako sa kusina at uminom ng tubig habang di padin nawawala sa isipan ko ang itsura nya. Nakita ko namang sumunod sakin ung apat at umupo sa upuan. Saaan pa ba? Psh.
"She's hot." Jean said.
"Goddess beauty." Marissa added.
"She is cool." manghang sabi ni Jasmine.
"She's good." natatawang dagdag ni Ethan.
"She's mysterious." Xander said. At dahil dun ay nakuha nya ang atensyon naming lahat.
"She win against Naiden and Y'all know that thing is impossible. Naiden is the best racer in town plus he is the heir of one of the most powerful mafia so tell me, Who is that girl?" he's right. I am the heir of the second most powerful mafia and no one can beat me.
But that question remained in my mind.
Who is that girl?

Astrid Pov.
I'm here at my office signing some stupid documents.
What a waste tsk. I read it again and throw it to the trash can. Ang ilan sa mga nanduon ay nabasa ko na kung saan. Puro masarap sa mata ang makikita mo. Sharing with investor a money. Makakakuha ako ng isang daang milyon kung sakaling tutulungan ko sila sa pinapatayong bussiness nila. Tsk liars. Once they get their money, aalis na sila. I'm not stupid.
Napasandal ako sa swivel chair at napalibot ang tingin sa opisina ko.
My office is just simple. Merong malaking office table ang nasa gitna. A black with the touch of gray ang pintura ng dingding. Nasa taas naman ng kisame ang isang napakalaking chandelier sapat na para bigyang liwanag ang buong opisina.
Meron din akong sariling kwarto dito dahil minsan ay marami akong kailangan pirmahan at nakakalimutan ko ng umuwi, simple lang ang kwarto ko na yun. One queen sized bed habang nasa tabi naman nya ay ang pinasadya kong table na nakakonekta sa office ni Janine. Carpeted floor ang mapapansin mo dahil mahilig ako sa black na bagay. Meron din akong sariling bathroom at walking closet na sapat para sa akin.
I also have a conference room para sa mga taong makakausap ko tungkol sa mahalagang bagay. Marami akong painting na ako mismo ang nagpinta. I love to paint and play guitar especially kapag bored at wala akong magawa.
I was about to get the another document when my head suddenly flitch and my vision became blurry. I felt like I want to do something..I want to see..
Blood.
Ilang minuto din akong naka hawak sa sentido ko habang hinihilot ito ng dahan dahan.
Both of my parents and my brothers thought that I have an anxiety attack everytime my head and vision became this. Hindi nila alam na kapag nararamdaman ko ito ay gusto ko ding makakita ng dugo at mga tao.
Taong walang buhay.
I just shrugged my thoughs and continue to get another document and read it again. Itatapon ko na sana ulit ng may biglang kumatok, My secretary.
Janine Eli Fajardo. A cumlaude. She graduated as a bussiness ad student with flying colors. But she choose to be my secretary because her family serves mine since then. She still wants to be my secretary kahit sinabi kong wag na.
She open the door lightly and asked me.
"Madam can I come in?" she said.
"Come in." I command.
Mabilis naman syang pumasok at yumuko ng makapunta sa harapan ko.
"What is it?" I asked blankly. Bihirang pumunta si Janine dito ng 'di ko pinatatawag. Pero parang alam ko na kung ano ang pakay nya.
"Mr. Cruz wants to talk to you madam." she said waiting for my answer. I didn't utter a word but I give her a sign telling her to let him in. She bow then leave.
I was busy sipping my coffee when an old fat man furiously came and slam my door. Curse this old man.
"What do you want?" I boredly ask. He slam my table then look at me with those scary eye. I'm scared, note the sarcasm.
"You know what I want Ms. Clemente. I want my money back and btw I'm pulling off my investment on your company." he said and smirk. I didn't look at him but I give him an envelope and I saw on my vision how his face changed. From idiotic look to confuse cat, hell yeah.
"What is this? A sign of your apology? Haha I'm sorry Ms. Clemente but I'm not going to--" I didn't finish his word.
"Open it." I command not giving him a glance.
He open the envelope and shocked was written on his face.
"H-how? This is impossible! You can't do this." he said angrily. I sigh then said,
"Nothing is impossible to me Mr. Cruz. I can do whatever I want. I can ruin a bussiness in a snap. " I said and smirk.
Tinignan nya ako ng nagtatakang tingin at bumalik ulit ang tingin nya sa papel. Hindi ata sya makapaniwala eh. Sino ba naman ang maniniwala? Isang papel na makakapagpabago sa buong buhay na nakagisnan mo.
"I buy your other investor share and that makes me the new CEO in your company. I own 55% of share while you just own 45% of it. Kaya nasa akin na ang lahat ng empleyado, kompanya at buhay na meron ka. " I said and smirk.
"You traitor! Pinagkatiwala ko ang buong kompanya ko sa isang tray-" hindi ko na hinayaan na tapusin nya ang sinasabi nya. Masyado na kasing madrama.
"Me? A traitor?" nakangising sabi ko sa kanya. hindi ko naman alam na di pala marunong mag biro itong matandang to. Tsk.
"Ikaw ang unang nag traydor sa atin hindi ba?" at nakita ko namang napatulala sya.
"H-hindi ko alam ang sinasabi mo," nauutal na sabi nya.
"Hindi mo alam? Ano ung pagbibigay mo ng mga plano ko sa mga kalaban? Telling them my new projects? Yung pagsasanib pwersa mo sa kanila para matalo ako? Pwes ito lang ang masasabi ko sayo, Hindi ang katulad nyo ang magpapabagsak sa akin. " sabi ko habang nanlilisik ang mga matang nakatingin sa kanya.
"S-sorry Madam, they t-threaten me." naiiyak nyang sabi. Tinakot?
"Isa ka sa mga maimpluwensyang tao Mr. Cruz, kaya alam kong hindi ka mabilis matatakot," sabi ko at dahang dahang lumapit sa kanya nakita ko naman ang sunod sunod nyang paglunok at ang takot sa kanyang mga mata. That's right old man be scared.
"Alam mo naman siguro ang mga ginagawa ko sa mga traydor diba? " sabi ko at lumapit sa mukha nya dahilan para manginig sya sa takot.
"I let them taste my wrath and...kill them." bulong ko sa kanya at nakita ko kung paano sya natigilan dahil sa sinabi ko.
Lumayo ako sakanya at doon ay bigla syang natauhan. Tsk a traitor like him should be punish by a demon like me.
"Spare my life madam! Pakawalan nyo po ako. I have my own family please. Please madam set me free." lumuluhod naman sya sakin. Lumapit naman ako sakanya at tinignan sya.
"Why would I spare your useless life? Give me a good reason, old hag." Nakita ko namang aligaga syang nagiisip ng rason. Tsk.
"I c-can give you money," he said while stuttering. Tsk stupid.
"I have my own money idiot." anong akala nya sakin? Namumulubi?
"I-i will do everything you want, just please spare my life." napaisip naman ako. Ano nga ba ang pakinabang nya bukod sa paglaganap ng masamang gawain dito?
"I'll spare your fucking life," magsasaya na sana sya ng may itinuloy ako "In one conditon."
"A-ano po iyon? Lahat po gaga-" di ko na sya pinatapos dahil bigla akong nagsalita.
"Speak. Tell me all the information you knew about this organization." sabi ko. It depends. If I will be satisfied with his answer.
"Per-" tinutok ko sa kanya ang hawak kong baril at bigla syang natigilan.
"Y-you're a demon. Paano mo nagawa yun?" namamangha ngunit takot nyang tanong. Wala pa kasing sampung segundo ay nakatapat nya na ang baril ko.
"Are you gonna tell me or you will meet my babies?" malamig kong sabi sakanya kaya bigla syang hindi mapakali.
"S-sasabihin ko na. S-sasabihin ko na." he said while his hands are closed. I lowered my gun and stare at him.
"Speak, before I lost my patience and kill you right away." napahinga naman sya ng malalim at tumingin sakin habang nanginginig parin ang mga kamay. Scared? Tsk.
"T-that o-organization name is-" malapit nya na sana masabi ng tuluyan kaso bago pa sya makatapos ay bigla na lang sumabog ang ulo nya at nagtalsikan ang dugo nya sakin. Tsk kainis naman eh.
I turned my gaze at the nearest building and saw the man with a sniper on his hand trying to escape.
"You messed with the wrong person, Asshole." I position my gun and calculate his movement.
Nang malapit na syang makababa ay bigla ko syang pinaputukan dahilan para mapatingin sya sakin. Nadaplisan ko sya sa braso at sinadya ko yun. Para naman masabi nya sa amo nya na hindi ako basta basta matatalo.
Lumingon sya sakin at ngumisi ng nakakaasar. I just stared at him blankly and turn my eyes to his arm. It's bleeding. Dahil sa daplis ay nagkaroon ng butas ang t-shirt nya dahilan para may makita ako.
Acodism Mafia Crest.
