Chapter 105: Chapter 105

SIMOUNE

I was distracted because maybe I was changing where I was lying because it's not big enough that even if I turn around it's possible, I took out my phone and saw that it was 2 in the early morning probably in the Philippines it's afternoon. I got up and looked around, the room I was staying in was small but clean but I couldn't help but cry because I was sad. It's not even been a month but I'm already sad and homesick even if I want to go home I can't because it's not that easy to go home to the Philippines.

I didn't do anything but cry as I stared at the pictures of me and Bruce on my phone. I didn't want to call Bruce because I knew Bruce would be sadder. I will call him later at 6 in the morning so I can talk to him and say hello at his work

While I was crying, I was looking at Lucy's messages to me, so instead of finishing crying, I didn't stop because I was moved to tears by what they were telling me.

"Be careful, I know you're sad even if you don't say it. I know that you want to travel, but this is not the kind of travel you want, I know what you want is to travel with us. Simoune, just fight for yourself and of course for you and Bruce, and of course avoid having a boyfriend because you have a boyfriend here. I will really strangle you if you make Bruce a fool, but I know you won't do that! Be careful! I love you" Lucy chatted

Lucy is really annoying. Instead of not crying anymore, I cried even more, this is how it feels to be homesick in another country and it's not really a joke. The feeling is heavy, it's hard even when I sleep I can't continue because I'm thinking about those I left behind in the Philippines.

I just cried while hugging the pillow next to me on my bed, I don't know what to do to stop myself from crying. I hope that the 2 months will be over soon so that I can recover

—

I woke up and it was exactly 6am in the morning so I immediately looked at my phone and it was right in my mind that Bruce had a lot of messages for me, so I immediately called him

"Babe?" Bruce said, it looks like he's still in the car because I can hear the noise of the cars

"Are you still on the trip babe?" I asked

"Yes, I'm almost home. Just wait for me for a moment" He said

I waited for him to get home and then he put the camera of his phone on his face, even if Bruce hides his sadness, I can see it because his eyes are swollen, maybe he cried too much earlier that's why he immediately swollen

"I'm home babe, how are you? What time is it there?" He said

"It's 6am here babe, I'm home sick because I couldn't sleep well earlier because I was not familiar in my room because I'm alone so it's small and just right for one person" I said

"So you didn't sleep well earlier? How come you have work later?" He asked

"I fell asleep again, I was just so sad that I didn't fall asleep right away because I cried first" I said

"Why babe? Are you afraid because you are alone? Or you don't know how to cook? Do you want me to teach you while we are on a video call?” He said

"Don't hide your feelings from me Bruce, I know you cried because I can see it in your eyes, don't worry because I will be strong and I will finish these 2 months and we will be together again" I said

"Yes, and after that you will not travel alone again because I will be the one to support you and our future children" He said

Somehow, the sadness I felt earlier disappeared because I could see and hear Bruce's plans with me. I am very lucky to have him in my life and he became my boyfriend. After I talked to him, I immediately ate my breakfast of noodles and then I took a shower because today I will be going to the company where I will be working for 2 months

After I finished taking a shower and eating, I immediately left the hotel and took a taxi. I didn't know that the company was right next to my hotel, so I ended up paying more instead of walking. When I entered the people were very kind and accepted me completely

"Good day Miss Simoune, you are from the Philippines. You are very lucky because you are one of those who ended up in this company because hard workers go here" She said

She immediately invited me to my table and then sat down

"Within 2 months this will be your table, welcome to this company, we saw your resume and information yesterday so we know you well by your appearance and your papers, one of our staff will accompany you and teach you of what you should do" She said and then she left my table

I was not given the opportunity to speak because it seems that they already know me well because of my information that I am from the Philippines. The person who will teach me arrived a few minutes later. At first I was having a hard time because she was teaching so much. My job will be to check the items that will be purchased from the company and I will set the address and other information of the orders. It is a lot of work, but I think I can handle it.

My work is from 8am to 3pm, which is not bad because I still have time for myself and of course during my rest. After I understood what I was going to do in my work, my trainor left me and then I did it alone. It's crazy because the company receives a lot of orders and it's only on my computer to check it, they do this to avoid scams because they don't want to waste the sales that they should be able to rotate

A few minutes later we had a break time, immediately a woman came up to me and she also looked like a Filipina like me

"Hi, you're Filipina too, right? We are the same, the only difference is that I am now in my last month" She said

"Oh it's good and you managed to not get homesick? What is your name by the way" I said

"Oh! My name is Isha Monterro, actually I'm not alone, I still have a friend but she's still in the restroom, Anna Toledo, we're the same Filipina" She said

"That's why you were able to stay here because you have someone with you" I said

"What we went through here is no joke, at first we both cried all the time, not until we started partying. Aren't you partying?" Isha asked

"I’m partying but that's not what I came here for" I said

"What's so fun about having a party later after work, do you want to come with us?" Isha asked

"Maybe not for now because I'm going to rest first because I came from the flight last night" I said

"Is that so, just tell me and Anna if you want to come" Isha said

After we ate, I immediately returned to my table and then went to work. I didn't realize the time and I was already off. I immediately walked home because I wanted to rest and eat, when I got home I thought of calling Bruce but because I knew it was early morning in the Philippines I didn't do it.

I cooked a simple egg and hotdog and then I ate it, up until now I was still learning how to cook but because I was tired I just let this be my dish. After I ate, I washed my body and then I went to sleep, while I was lying down, I thought about what Isha told me, what if the bar really helps so I don't think I'm working? What if I go with them and make them friends?
