Walter's POV
Damn alam kong galit na galit talaga si Angelica sa akin. I've been very busy at work at dumagdag pa tong anak ni Mr. Lactatao I really need to close this deal with him so I'm doing this pinagbibigyan ko ang kagustuhan nang anak nya na kumain sa labas at pumunta nang mall this is actually the second week last week she asked me if she could stay at my office I was about to say no when her dad told me na I could teach her daughter soe things about business since soon we'll be partners in business na gagawin ko daw ito para mapabilis ang process sa pagiging business partners namin so aside from being so busy I had to babysit this 19 year old woman kahit ayaw ko. I know Angelica is mad, pissed, and disappointed with me syempre sa pagod ko nasigawan ko silang dalawa ni Markus tapos may problema pa sa company kaya I had no time to explain.
I tried to follow her and Markus pero wala she never looked back so I went back inside not for Ms. Lactatao but for my things she grabbed my hand
"Where are you going Gray we aren't even done eating just sit back down and let's continue eating" she evenn caressed my hands nakakairita na talga tong babae na toh kung hindi lang toh babae mapatawad sana ako nang Diyos sa magagawa ko.
"look Ms. Lactatao I explained to you already that I am a man with a girlfriend we may not be married yet but sooon we will so please stop this stupid madness and tell your father that if he doesn't want the deal he doesn't have to sign the contract...and one more thing Ms. Lactatao you may be very sexy with an hourglass body but I am a man with principles I stand by my promise kahit anong damit pa ang gamitin mo kahit maghubad ka pa sa harapan ko hinding hindi ko ipagpapalit ang babaeng pinakamamahal ko and please do buy some clothes that'll cover yourself sa dinami dami nang business nyo ba't yata nagkukulang ang tela nang damit mo ask your aunt for some cloth she's a fashion designer right and she owns a clothing brand"
I know that she got insulted sa mga sinabi ko I was saying everything na nasa utak ko kaya walang preno ang bibig ko. I smirked and went out of that place sumakay ako sa sasakyan ko I'll go home now bukas na bukas pupuntahan ko sina Markus at Angelica alam kong galit na galit pa sya kaya ipapabukas ko nalang ang paghingi ko nang tawad sa kanya kahit ayaw ko I need to give her space.
Pumasok ako sa loob nang penthouse at di ko inaasahan ang nakita ko I saw Leandro he has been very busy with the organization lately kaya nagulat ako nang makita ko sya sa living room, I loosened up my tie and sat beside him he was watching basketball while eating chips which was very unusual kasi medyo healthy living na si Leandro ngayon. Nagulat ako nang binatukan nya ako nang malakas
"Aray naman ba't ka ba nangbabatok bigla!" tumawa naman sya
"ikaw naman kasi siraulo ka Angelica just called me" nagulat naman ako sa sinabi nya
"What did she say?" I asked
He inhaled and exhaled "TOMAS! Kung pupunta ka mamaya sa penthouse at makita mo ang siraulo mong kaibigan na nagngangalang Walter sabihin mo sa kanya na wag syang susunod sa amin ni Markus sa bahay nang magulang ko sabihin mo din na ang gago nya dun sya sa babaeng mukhang dancer sa mumurahing bar ang aga-aga nagkakasala ako sa Diyos nang dahil dyan sa kaibigan mo 'toot'" natawa naman ako dahil kuang kuha talaga ni Leandro si Angelica sa ginawa nyang pag-arte but I know that Angelica is really mad she barely even cusses!
"I know what you're thinking Walter. Angelica is really mad since she said "dancer sa mumurahing bar" to describe whoever you were with and she barely says those kind of words nor does she cuss!"
"you really read my mind I gotta try to call her tonight and go to her tomorrow"
He nodded
Lord please guide me alam mo naman na parang dragon na bumubuga nang apoy si Angelica pag galit ewan ko nalang talaga kung anong mangyayari sa akin mamaya pero alam kong mas malala bukas since I'll be seeing her already.
So the whole day ang ginawa namin ay umupo sa living room at kumain nang kumain.
Angelica's POV
When Markus and I reached our house pinakuha ko na sa mga katulong ang gamit namin I was shocked to see new faces around the house kailangan na din kasi nila Mom at Dad nang ibang katulong to help them around the house since wala na ako at si manang. Last year our house was also renovated kasi gusto nila mom at dad magkaroon nang pets around the house my parents love animals at hindi lang basta bastang animals ang gusto nila they love exotic pets Mom used to freak out when dad bought bugs from different countries when he came from a business trip pero si mama hindi takot sa ahas she told me na when she was little she had an albino python yun nga lang pinatay nang pusa nang kapitbahay nila so ngayon since they renovated the place they got pets lots of them kaya alam ko na mag-eenjoy din si Markus dito pagpasok palang namin binati na kami nang husky at german shepherd nila mom at dad na sina Bridgette at Hulk sa edad na 5 months these two are pretty big tuwang tuwa naman si Markus nang makita ang dalawang aso manang mana sa kuya nya. I told Markus na mamaya na makipag laro sa mga aso at kumain na muna we went over the dining papasok pa lang kami ni Markus ay rinig na rinig na namin ang usapan at tawanan na nagmumula sa bisista nila dad. Markus and I went inside at nagulat ako sa mga taong nakita ko.
"Angelica"
"F-Felix"
WHY THE HECK IS THIS MAN HERE?!
"Oh anak nandito na pala kayo upo na kayo so that we can start eating" Papa smiled
How the heck can papa smile when the most powerful mafia boss is here along with his son and wait tita Mirabelle?!
"I'm glad to finally meet you Angelica I am Roziano Felipe Nostra you can call me tito Roz and I'm sure you already know my son Felix and oh my beautiful wife Mirabelle" nakita ko naman na namula si tita sa sinabi ni Mr- Tito Roz
"Hello po good afternoon Angelica Shane and this is my boyfriends brother Markus. Markus mag-mano ka"
Sumunod naman agad si Markus at umupo na kami
"Your tito Roziano and I thought about starting a business just a simple mountain resort in Bataan since they'll be living here sa Philippines and Felix here will also study at UST 3rd year Business Management since doon din nagtapos ang tita Mirabelle"
COULD THIS DAY BE WORST PA?!
"He'll soon handle our businesses in Italy since alam mo namang matanda na ako kaya sya magmamana nang lahat yung mga anak kong mga babae iba kasi ang gusto si Reina model, si Natalia fashion designer, yung kapatid naman ni Felix na si Maria Arabella she wants to be part of the organization kaya pinagbigyan ko nalang"
"Maganda pa rin ang mga trabaho nila Roziano sina Arabella talaga at Felix ang sumusunod sa yapak mo" tumawa naman silang dalawa ni Tito Roziano.
Naikwento kasi sa akin ni Felix nuon ang kapatid nya sa labas they are actually tito Roziano's legal family yun nga lang may nabutis si Tito Roziano before he got tita pregnant they're married yun nga lang tito had mistresses kaya umuwi si tita Mirabelle sa Philippines and raised Felix and ate Arabella here. Pagkatapos namin kumain papa told me na samahan si Markus sa mga alaga nila ni mom parang zoo na nga tong bahay namin except wala kaming tigers, lions, monkeys at ibang wild animals.
"Isama mo na din si Felix anak alam mo naman na he also love animals"
Just what the heck is going on with my papa?!
Since I don't want to upset papa I smiled "Okay pa"
"Tara na" I said using my cold tone
I brought Markus to the garden kung saan may enclosure lahat nang animals nila mama at papa konting konti nalang magiging zoo na talaga tong bahay namin.
"Wow" sabay sabi nang dalawa natawa ako sa kanilang dalawa
"Tara na Markus where do you wanna go first?"
"Sa snakes ate!"
iba talaga tong batang toh "Snakes it is!"
After almost 3 hours of playing with all the animals at our home Makus fell asleep on Felix's shoulder.
"Markus. Markus wake up so that you can sleep sa room mo" I gently tapped Markus's shoulder nagising naman sya kaya sinamahan ko na sya papunta sa kwarto nya when we reached his room tulog agad sya, I placed the comforter on top of him and went out of his room. Nagulat naman ako nang makita ko si Felix sa labas nang kwarto ni Markus.
"Still magugulatin huh" he chuckled
Ba't ang gwapo nya ngayon even his chuckle hit differently
What the heck Angelica?!
"Ba't ka ba nandito?"
"your dad invited my family and I for lunch. Your dad and my dad are now partners in business aswell"
Ano bang kinain ni papa?
"Can we please talk Angelica"
"No if this is about us again hindi pwede"
"Why?"
Ba't ba ang kulet nitong gagong toh???
"You have Andy and I have Walter"
He sighed "I don't love Andy I just need her for our business alam mo naman na sikat na business man ang lolo nya and she's gonna have all of her lolo's businesses I just need their help"
"Let's not talk about this please Felix pagod ako" I went to my room and locked my door
I am frustrated with Walter dumagdag pa tong si Felix! I don't know what to do anymore!
I didn't notice na umiiyak na pala ako and slowly my eyelids are already falling down...
I woke up nang dahil s cellphone ko someone was calling it was Walter and its 9 already I answered my phone
"what?"
(love sorry na please don't talk muna let me speak. okay?)
"Fine"
(that woman you saw earlier she's the daughter of Mr. Lactatao. He's a big business man not as big as your papa though...so I needed him for this big project he always brought his daughter in our meetings so last week she told me na kumain kami sa labas I was about to say no when her dad told me na I should teach her daughter some ways in order to manage a big company tinuruan ko sya but she kept on forcing me to go to the mall with her and eat out with her since I really needed her dad for this project pumayag ako but then nuong Sunday nagkaproblema sa trabaho dumagdag pa yung anak ni Mr. Lactatao na nakita mo kanina medyo nakulitan din ako sa kay Markus kaya nasigawan ko kayo...Love I'm so sorry please come back..please)
sumisinghot na si Walter sa kabilang linya I know he was crying. Walter might look really tough but he's a crybaby.
"Siguraduhin mo lang na you're not lying Walter maraming ahas sina mama at papa pwede kitang ipakain sa ahas Walter"
He started sobbing
(Love sorry na please bukas na bukas I'll get you and Markus. I'll make sure to have time for you and my brother just don't leave me...please love)
Natawa naman ako he was really crying "oo na okay na wag ka na ngang umiyak para kang bata"
(I'll get you and Markus agad bukas. Have you eaten yet?)
"Nope. Kakagising ko lang nung tumawag ka"
Someone knocked
"Ate. Ate. Are you awake na? Kain ka na I've eaten na kanina matagal ka kasing bumangon ate!" it was Markus
"Yes. I'm coming wait lang"
"OKAY ATE!"
"Walter I'll just see you tomorrow wag ka nang umiyak ha"
(Okay love..I love you)
"Love ya too bye"
I ended the call and went out of my room to eat.
THE NEXT DAY
I woke up at six in the morning after doing my morning rituals I decided to cook for everyone.
Pagbaba ko nakita ko agad ag bagong mga katulong namin dito sa bahay na nagka-kape
"Magandang umaga po ma'am"
"Magandang umaga din ako na po bahala sa agahan namin"
gulat na gulat naman sila
"Sigurado ba kayo ma'am?"
"Yup" I smiled I started cooking. I cooked pancakes, bacon, spam, eggs, and rice sa loob nang dalawang taon na pagsasama namin ni Walter he taught me how to cook, kaya alam ko na paano magluto it was hard at first pero I got used to it na din. We would bond here and we would bake and watch movies.
When I finished cooking tamang tama dahil gising na sina Mama, Papa, at Markus. The doorbell rrang kaya agad akong tumakbo I'm sure it was Walter when I opened the gate I saw Felix and after a second Walter also came he went out of his car with a big bouquet and cake I'm pretty sure he made that.
"Oh mga iho pasok kayo ano ka ba naman anak may bisita pala tayo tapos hindi mo pinapasok" naunang pumasok si Felix at nag mano kay mama while Walter smiled at me and hugged me.
"Good Morning love I baked your favorite Strawberry Cake and Pink Roses" I hugged him back
"Good Morning too love thanks for this pasok na tayo" he broke our hug and kissed my head. Bago sya pumasok ay nagmano muna sya kay mama before going inside.
We all sat down sa dining. We prayed and started eating.
"Felix this is Walter, Angelica's boyfriend. Walter this is Felix Angelica's bestfriend. Walter is also studying at UST Business Ad silang dalawa ni Angelica but you're just a year older than them I believe you guys will still see each other at the University since same course lang kayo"
Halatang gulat naman si Walter sa sinabi ni papa I haven't told him and I could feel the tension building up.
"Oh that's nice tito if you want we can tour you around the campus Felix soon when classes start you can call me Walter by the way"
Nagulat naman ako sa sinabi ni Walter
"Felix. We've seen each other back in New York, but I haven't introduced myself formally Felix Jason Nostra, aside from being Angelica's bestfreind I was her fiance" Felix smirked gulat naman kaming lahat sa sinabi ni Felix
Napatigil si Walter he was gripping his utentsils and his knuckles were turning white. I caressed his hands
"Yup I heard from Angelica she hasn't mention anything interesting about you though" Walter smirked
"I see. We've got a lot to talk about Walter"
"Yes we do"
I could feel the tension between them and its not good. Not at all.
Why is this suddenly happening? My life with Walter is very peaceful already bakit kailangan pang sumawsaw ni Felix?!
