Episode 2 SirWSec

At the House

Secretary Elijah entered the house and saw Wenalin's dad, Wemson, at the dining table with Corazon. Wemson looked up and noticed Elijah. Elijah walked towards him.

Elijah: "Good morning, sir."

Wemson: "Morning... What brings you here so early? Did you finish the papers?" He smiled when he saw Elijah.

Elijah: "Yes, I did bring the papers you asked for. Here, sir."

Elijah handed him the papers and Wemson took them and looked them over.

Wemson: "Thank you." He said, sipping his coffee again.

Wemson: "Have a seat. Join us for breakfast." He gestured to the seat beside him.

Elijah: "No, sir, I just came to deliver the papers."

Wemson: "Oh, okay. By the way, I already told you, don't call me sir. Just call me by my name."

Elijah: "Right... Sorry about that." Elijah noticed Corazon staring.

Wemson: "By the way, Eli, this is my girlfriend, Corazon. And Corazon, this is my best secretary, Elijah."

Corazon: "Hi, it's nice to meet you, Elijah." She gave a fake sweet smile.

Elijah nodded at her.

Corazon: "By the way, darling, I'm leaving. I need to go to the salon."

Wemson: "Okay, go ahead."

Corazon nodded and kissed him on the cheek. She left.

Elijah: "Okay, sir. I'll be going now." He turned to leave.

Wemson: "Wait. Where are you going?"

Elijah: "To the office."

Wemson: "Oh, to the office. Let's go together. I'm going there too." He said with a smile.

Wemson stood up and put his coat on.

Wemson: "Let's go."

Elijah nodded. They walked out of the house together.

They stepped outside and saw the luxurious car waiting for them. Elijah was still quiet, lost in thought.

Wemson got in the car. Elijah was still deep in thought while Wemson leaned back in the comfortable seat. He felt something was wrong. He looked out at Elijah who was opening the passenger seat door.

Wemson: "Eli, why are you sitting in the front?"

Elijah snapped out of his thoughts.

Elijah: "Huh?"

Wemson: "Sit next to me. Why are you sitting in the front?"

Elijah awkwardly moved next to Wemson in the backseat.

The driver started the car and drove. Both Elijah and Wemson were silent.

Elijah: "Sir, I don't mean to pry, but I'd like to know what happened between you and Wenalin. I noticed her face."

Wemson knew Elijah was talking about her face. He let out a heavy sigh and rubbed his face.

Wemson: "I didn't mean it, okay? It just happened. I didn't mean to."

Elijah: "Why? What happened?"

Wemson leaned back in the seat and looked down. He felt guilty for slapping Wenalin.

Wemson: "It's because of last night... I brought Corazon and my daughter, Ivory, with me."

Hearing "daughter, Ivory," Elijah was shocked but stayed calm. He remained silent while listening to Wemson.

Wemson: "She didn't accept it. She got angry at me, so we argued last night. We ended up yelling at each other, and I tried to calm her down. She even said I don't love her and her mother."

He let out a deep sigh.

Wemson: "That's why I slapped her."

Elijah stayed calm but looked at him with a serious expression.

Elijah: "Why? What did you expect her reaction to be? She's your daughter, sir. Of course, she's going to react badly because you brought another woman and your child with another woman, and she felt like you don't love her and her mother, which is true."

Elijah: "And you even slapped her? You should have been the one who stayed calm. You should have been the one who handled it well. She is your daughter after all... I pity her for having such a coward father."

Wemson looked up at Elijah and clung to him, pouting.

Wemson: "I know!..." And you're right, I should have been the one who stayed calm.... I didn't mean to do it.... I'm really horrible...." He pouted.

Elijah rolled his eyes when he saw Wemson pouting and clinging to him.

Elijah: "What are you doing? You're a grown man, why are you pouting and clinging to me like a child?"

Wemson pouted even more and clung to him, now on his shoulder, while whining.

Wemson: "Eli, don't be like that."

Elijah pushed Wemson away from him.

Elijah: "You're a grown ass man, stop acting like a child."

Wemson then pouted even more and looked at him with sad puppy eyes.

Wemson: "Eliiii, don't be mean to me! I'm sad now, so you need to comfort me."

Elijah saw how childish he was being and he really wanted to punch him at this rate.

At School

Jana: "Ivory!!! My friend! We already know the gossip. You're Vohames' daughter!"

Ivory: "It spread so fast, but that's right. I'm Vohames' daughter, so don't mess with me."

Loisa: "No one would dare mess with you. You're so lucky, Ivory."

Jana: "I never thought you came from a wealthy family."

Loisa: "I'm very honored to be your friend, the daughter of such a wealthy family."

Ivory: "Tsk, who said you're my friend?" She scoffed.

Ivory: "Don't think you'll have a friend like me!"

Loisa: "Oh, Ivory, Yuno's coming towards you. He's probably going to confess to you again."

Their attention turned to Yuno. He stopped in front of Ivory.

Ivory: "What do you want now? Are you going to confess to me again? Tsk, I told you I don't like a gloomy guy like you."

Yuno felt down and depressed after Iino told him she didn't like him again. He was silent.

Ivory: "Can you please leave me alone? You're so annoying. You're always following me just to confess. I've told you many times that I don't like you."

Yuno was trying his best to hold back. He knew that Ivory didn't like him. He couldn't handle this. It was too painful and too depressing.

Ivory: "Why are you quiet there? Why can't you speak? I don't like you. I'm way out of your league. Stop wasting your time chasing after me."

Yuno was still trying to hold back the pain. He couldn't show emotion in front of all those people. He felt ashamed that Ivory was humiliating him in front of her friends.

Ivory: "Are you going to say something or just going to stand there like an idiot? Are you going to finally understand I don't like you? I will reject you no matter how many times you confess to me, so just give up already."

Yuno felt humiliated. He was being mocked in front of other people, and Ivory was insulting and hurting him by rejecting him and calling him an idiot.

Yu: "Who said I was going to confess to you?"

Ivory: "Really? Tsk, then why are you here? Why are you following me around like a puppy? Just leave me alone. Stop being weird and annoying. Gosh, you're so pathetic."

Yuno felt even more pain and humiliated. Ivory's words were so cruel. She couldn't stop insulting and talking down to him. It was too much. He was about to snap.

Yuno: "I'm not following you. And you're not who I'm here for. I'm just going to see my girlfriend..."

Ivory: "Huh!? What girlfriend? Don't bull crap me. There's no way someone could love a gloomy guy like you!"

Yuno was trying to keep his composure and not get more humiliated by Ivory. He was trying to control himself from snapping at her.

Yuno: "It's true. I do have a girlfriend, and she does love me. She said my personality is cute and she finds me attractive."

Ivory: "HA HA HA HAHAHA You can't be serious right now. A girl actually likes you and finds you attractive? Please, you must be joking right. There's no way a girl would be attracted to someone like you. I don't believe it at all."

Ivory: "Hmph, fine, show me. Show me a picture of you with your so-called girlfriend. I want to see that so-called girlfriend of yours just so to see the level of delusion of yours."

Yuno felt uneasy. He didn't want to be exposed for lying about having a girlfriend.

Yuno: "W-we don't have any pictures together..."

Ivory: "You have to be kidding me. You don't have pictures of you and your supposed girlfriend? Then how am I supposed to believe that you have a girlfriend if you have no evidence of her existence?"

Yuno was getting nervous. He was sweating and starting to regret saying that to Ivory.

Yu: "I-I... u-uhh I meant that we never took pictures before, and... we don't like taking pictures together..."

Ivory: "What? That's the biggest load of bull crap I've ever heard. You want me to believe you, but you don't even have a picture together. Seriously, who would buy that crap?"

Iino: "Come on, where is the real proof that you have a girlfriend? You've been saying all this time that you have one and she's in love with you, but you have no proof at all. What do you think your so-called girlfriend is imaginary?"

Yuno was starting to feel more nervous and scared that Ivory caught him telling a lie. He felt dumb that he got into this mess, and he couldn't think of a proper excuse to get out of it. He might get exposed as a liar to Ivory.

Yuno: "H-she's not imaginary. I'm telling the truth. I have a girlfriend!"

Ivory: "You're really making fun of us. Do you think we're stupid? Tsk, if you have a girlfriend, where is she? Where is this girlfriend you're talking about?"

He suddenly saw Wenalin.

Yuno: "She! She's my girlfriend!" He pointed at Wenalin.
