Nasa isang malaki at mataas na building ngayon. She admits that it is bigger than DM Corporation. Welcome to Monteverde Pharmaceutical Building yong ang nakalagay sa signage.
"Mommy, let's come inside now." excited na sambit nito.
"Baby, do you think they will let us in?" nag-alinlangan nyang sabi
"Yes, mommy." confident na sabi nito
"Kuya Guard, hello po." bati nya. kinarga nya ang bata kaya di kita ang mukha nito
"Yes, maam?"
"Can we come in?"
"Ano po kailangan nyo , maam?"
"Kuya Guard, I need to see my dad." baling ng bata.
"Señorita Serenity. Sige po , ma'am."
"Come on , mommy. Let's go to the 8th floor." sabi ni Serenity
pinindot nya ang elevator papuntang 5th floor. Tumakbo ang bata
"Baby, careful. madadapa ka." sabi nya dito.
Walang ibang tao sa floor na ito. Huminto si Serenity sa tapat ng isang office. Nakalagay sa labas "The CEO's office"
"Baby, anong ginagawa natin dito? It is CEO's office."
"Mom, this is Dad's office."
Nagulat sya. Anak ito ng CEO. She can't believe it pero halata naman sa kutis ng bata na anak mayaman.
The door opened
"Daddy" sigaw ni Serenity
She saw a man looks like Adonis in Greek Mythology. He had this ash brown hair color, almond shape, and copper color in the eyes, he had this concrete jawline and had a broad shoulder. He stands for 6 feet.
"Baby" he said in a deep baritone voice. He sounds so sexy in his voice. He carried Serenity.
"Why are you here baby? Do you miss, daddy?" he said
"I miss you so much , daddy. Daddy, I am with mommy." she exclaimed happily. His eyebrows furrowed and confused
"Mommy?" he asked
"Yes, daddy. Look." Serenity said enthusiastically and pointed her. He looked around and saw Bliss standing not a distance from them.
"G-good morning po." alinlangan bati ni Bliss sa gwapong binata
"Baby, where is your Yaya Marites?" he asked
"Ahmmp. Daddy, I guess she is still in the park. I just sneaked out then I found mommy." She said joyfully
"Baby, that is not right.What if something bad happens to you?" pangaral ng ama
"I'm sorry daddy. I will not do it again. I'll promise." sabi ng bata na mangiyak ngiyak na.
"sssssh. Daddy is not mad anymore. Just don't do it again ,okay?"
"Yes,, daddy. I love you."
"I love you too baby."
Di nya maiwasan maisip if kung nakita nya ang kanyang ama.Ganito kaya ito sa kanya? She wishes that her dad is on her side right now.
"Baby, get inside in my office. I'll just talk to her." sabi ng binata sa anak
"Okay, daddy. Mommy, don't leave me again , okay?" pakiusap ng bata sa kanya
"Huh?Ah ? Eh?" hindi nya alam ang isasagot. Di naman sya ang ina nito.
"Baby, we'll talk first, okay?"
"Okay , daddy."
Pumasok ang bata sa office ng binata.At pinasunod naman si Bliss ito sa binata. Pumasok sila sa conference room.
Wala munang nagsasalita sa kanila.Tinitigan sya nito mula ulo hanggang paa na para bang isa syang species na sinusuri.
"What is your name? He asked in an authoritative voice..
" Po?"
"I hate repeating my words." he said. Inirapan nya ito.
"Excuse po sir ha. Nandito lang naman ako para ihatid ang anak nyo na napagkamalan ako na nanay nya." pagtataray nya nito.Kumukulo ang dugo nya. Gwapo sana kaso ang sungit.
"My question is, what is your name? I didn't ask you why you are here?" sabi nito sa masungit na pananalita
"Kung ayaw ko sasabihin.may angal ka?" balik nya
"Damn, woman. A simple question you can't answer. Ano ang pangalan mo? oh tinagalog ko na? Gets mo na?" frustrated nitong salita. Mas lalo itong gumawapo if nagsasalita ito ng Filipino but nunca na aaminin nya.masungit pa rin ito.
"Whatever." she said and rolled her eyes. But he is slowly walking near her. Umatras naman sya. Seryoso na kasi ang mukha nito. Wala na syang ma atrasan kasi na corner na sya nito.
kinabahan sya ... at biglang tumunog yong cellphone nya. Dagli dagli kinuha nya ito sa bulsa ng jeans nya.
"Hello, Auntie. Po? Yes po. Pabalik na ako dyan. Sige po Auntie. Salamat." sabi nya sa nataranta at nag-alalang boses.
Nagmadali syang lumabas sa conference room at iniwan ang binata.
He is Night Taner Monteverde, the CEO of Monteverde Pharmaceutical and a Chemist. He is one of the famous billionaires in the country. He is known as a strict, snob but Adonis looks like. Every woman dreams to be with him.
"Daddy" sigaw ni Serenity ng makapasok sya sa office nya."Daddy , where is mommy?" tanong ng bata sa kanya
"She left,baby." he said but Serenity cried out loud.
"I want mommy, daddy. huhuhuhuhu...huhuhuhuhuhu..." iyak ng bata
"Stop crying ,baby. Mommy will come back. Okay?" he said
"Promise." mangiyak ngiyak na sabi ng bata
"Promise. I'll call Yaya Marites to fetch you here, okay?"
"But how about, mommy?" tanong ulit ng bata
"She'll come back. Mommy is busy right now. " paintindi nya sa anak
"I'm holding on to your promise dad."
"When did I not do my promise,baby?"
"None ,daddy."
"See? Mommy will come back soon. I'll do my best , baby."
"Sol, can you come to my office right now." sabi nya sa kausap nya sa cellphone.
"I need your, help. I'll tell you everything in here.Okay. Bye." he said then ended up the call
"Wazzup, Bro?" bati ng matipunong lalaki sa nakaupong si Night. He is good looking, his hair was short disconnected under cut and with its red color but it really looks good on him, he has white complexion but he still looks so manly, his eyes is as blue as the ocean. Naka puting T-Shirt ito top with leather Jacket and Ripped Jeans pero gwapo pa rin itong tingnan sa suot nito.
"I want you to investigate this lady." sabi ni Night.
"The who? Wow, bro. Why do you want to investigate a woman? " panunukso nito kay Night. Pero tinapunan lamang sya ng matatalim na tingin ni Night
"Okay , fine. What's the matter?"
" I need her for Serenity."
"Serenity or sayo? hahahaha." panunudyo sa kaibigan
"Just do it Sol kung ayaw mo sapakin kita."
"Relax , bro. hahahaha." patawa patawa sagot ni Sol " Just give me a minute."
"Bilisan mo."
"Makabilis ito. Ikaw kaya gagawa nito. Tsk."
"Auntie, anong nangyari po?" tanong ni Bliss sa tiyahin ng makarating sya sa hospital
"Gusto ka raw makausap ng Doctor , Bliss.Kanina kasi bumaba yong heart rate ng mama mo." sagot nito
"Ms. Salvador, I'll give you 2 days para maoperahan ang ina mo. Kailangan nya ma operahan as soon as possible." sabi ng Doctor sa daLaga
"Doc, what if hindi agad ma operahan si mama?"
" Then, Im sorry to tell you baka hindi kakayanin ng mama mo at di sya maka survive. But sa operation, there is 50/50 chances na maka survive rin sya."
"Doc, gawin yo lahat makakaya niyo po na maging okay mama ko." sabi nya at umiiyak
