Entry No. 31 Stand at Attention

"Fred....since I will be the Asst Creative Director. I want you to report all the things happening in our department before you go to Vladimir."she speaks with such tone that makes anyone in the room stand at attention. At the look of Fred's face, you can tell that its not only his mind is in full attention, he can't help but to stare at Raven's perfect voluptuous body when she is not looking. He perspires a great amount of sweat whenever she mentions his name. "I don't want Vladimir to think that I am not doing my job."she continued while shifting her crossed slim legs, as if intentionally to get Fred's full attention. This created a jolt of Fred's adrenaline, that he needs to excuse himself before he explode. "Affirmative. If you will excuse me, i had to go to the men's room."with tremulous voice he motioned to leave the room."Perfect. You are excused."she gestured her hand to dismiss him as if telling an animal to go away. "Ah Fred."she called on him again before he can even leave the room. Fred had no choice but to turn on her again with no voice coming out of his mouth he gesticulate her query with his face.

"Ah one more thing Fred. I didn't really had a good chance to talk to your staff can you ask them over to come to my office. There are just some things I need to discuss to them."she said these in a matter-of-fact manner, and upon realizing that her tone might be rude she quickly added"Pleeaseee."throwing with a almost perfect polite smile. With a nod Fred leave the room hurriedly dropping at the men's room before proceeding to his staffs' cubicle.

"Sir anong nangyari sa inyo? Bakit pawis na pawis kayo?"hay salamat at nag tagalog na itong si Michael ang hirap mag ingles noh!"Pinapatawag kayo ni Miss Raven sa opis niya."sabi ni Fred na may paghihikahos pa rin sa boses."Bakit daw sir?"tanong ni Glenda.

"Meron lang daw siya i-d-discuss sa inyo."sagot ni Fred habang silang apat ay patungo sa opisina ni Raven. Nagmamadaling maglakad si Michael kasunod ni Fred na parang mauubusan. "Ms. Raven the web design staff."intro sa tatlo ni Fred.

"Thank you Fred. That will be all. Can you please leave us....and please shut the door on your way out. Thank you."tugon ni Raven. "Well, I am sorry to drag you in my office during this time. I know we haven't talk that much. I am sure you are good on what you do."nagsasalita siya habang umiikot ng kuwarto at nang tumapat siya kay Pam ay hinawakan niya ang balikat nito ng bahagya na parang nagpapahid ng mantikilya sa malambot na tinapay. Parang gustong masuka ni Pam, nang tumapat si Raven kay Michael na ang ngiti ay abot hanggan batok ay biglang nagbago ang mukha niya at pinaupo sila.

"Well you all know...that Vladimir is single...i just want you guys to help me..well...to get close to him..I really want to impress him..I am not getting any younger...I need to settle down, and i think Vladimir is the right person for me."ang mga katagang yun ay parang gumising sa damdamin ni Pam at Glenda.

"Well? Can i count on you guys?"tanong niya na parang wala lang. Nagkatinginan lang si Pam at Glenda naghihintay kung sino sa kanila ang sasagot sa tanong na iyon. "You can count on me ma'm anytime!"sagot ni Michael na parang tulala."Thank you dear."sabay ngiting plastik."How about you two?"tinuro niya ang dalawa ng hintuturo niya na parang kumukuha ng order ng drinks sa isang low class na restaurant. Hindi kinaya ni Pam wala siyang nasabi. Nagulat na lang siya ng biglang sumagot si Glenda.

"Miss Raven, what can i assure is this, you will have my full support on the interest of the company. I will give my 100% creativity on the job. As for Sir Vladimir to like you. That, i cannot answer. My relation to you is strictly professional and i have no intention to give in on your personal desires."sagot ni Glenda na walang ka gatol gatol.

Parang biglang nagmukhang monster si Raven sa reaksyon ni Glenda. Hindi alam ni Pam kung paano ang gagawin sa eksenang ito.
