"Mommy! Mommy!" I heard someone screaming kaya sumilip ako sa kwarto ni Clarrise.
She agreed with me na dito na muna sya sa condo unit ko matulog because of what happend to her condo unit.
"Daddy wag po! Mommy!" She's having a nightmare.
"Clarrise hey wake up!" I tap her face gently
"Mommy! Wag nyo po akong iiwan! Please!"
"Clarrise clarrise!"
Then she woke up. Pawis na pawis sya at hingal na hingal.
"Im scared" she hug me and she started to cry.
"My mom I need to see her as soon as possible. Kailangan mahanap ko na sya"
I gently brush her hair. "Shh. Everything will be alright okay? Sleep now. We're gonna find your mom"
Inihiga ko sya dahan dahan. After how many minutes naka tulog na ulit ito.
"What the hell is wrong with you clarrise? It seems really difficult and heavy. I wish I can help to you feel at ease" I whispher.
About what happend to her condo unit. I heard it was her father fault.
I can't even imagine someone like his dad can do this.
I decided to call Taylor.
After 3 ring she answered it "Hello?"
"Hey? Napatawag ka?"
"Did I disturb you?"
"No. So what happend? Do you want to know more about clarrise?"
I sigh "She's currently sleeping in my condo unit"
"Wait. WHAT?!" Inilayo ko ng konti ng cellphone sa aking tenga dahil sa ginawa nyang pagsigaw.
"It's a long story. I'll tell you everything later. Hm. I just want to ask kung nasaan ang family ni clarrise?"
Matagal bago ito naka sagot "Her mom was missing for almost 9 years and her dad was her greatest enemy. I dont know the whole story ang alam ko lang matagal na nyang hinahanap ang mommy nya at ang walang puso nyang tatay ang nagtago sa nanay nya."
"Can I know the name of her dad and mom?"
"Michael Knox and Teressa Oxford Knox"
Althea Clarrise Knox POV
Nagising ako dahil sa pagtama ng sikat ng araw sa aking mukha.
Tumuloy ako sa Cr para maligo. Paglabas ko nadatnan ko si harry na nagluluto ng pagkain.
"Goodmorning" walang ganang sambit nito. Inirapan ko lang sya at umupo.
Kung ganito lagi ang sasalubong sa umaga ko. Malamang badtrip ako lagi. Seryoso
"Wala bang lason to?" Taas kilay kong tanong
"Meron" naka ngising sagot nya.
I just rolled my eyes. "Wala bang gatas dyan? I don't like coffee you know"
"Ang arte mo. Nakiki tira ka lang naman saakin ah!"
"Nakikitira?" I laugh "Excuse me ikaw ang nagdala saakin dito! Edi aalis na ako kung masama ang loob mo!" Dagdag ko pa.
"You really have a bad temper clarrise" natatawang puna nito at umupo na saaking harapan.
"I have a fresh milk. Is that enough for you?"
I just nod and ate silently. I had a nightmare last night. I dream about my mom and waking up with Kupal's arms.
Like what the hell. I wont hug this punk.
"Yes"
Tumayo sya at kumuha ng fresh milk sa ref.
"You're having a pictorial later."
I nod. "Is maria coming with me?"
"No. She's having a meeting later"
We ate without talking. Tanging ang tunog lang ng kutsara at tinidor ang aming naririnig
"About what happend last night ..."
I stop for a second and look at him "Can we keep it as a secret? You know privacy. I don't want the public to know about this" dagdag ko pa.
He look at me and smile "Yes. Makaka asa ka"
"But you can't go home okey? Dito ka muna pansamantala."
Wala na akong ibang nagawa kundi tumango. The safest place right now is here. Hindi ko alam kung kailan ulit gagawa ng katarantaduhan ang magaling kong ama.
Sabay na kaming pumunta ni Harry sa studio. Ayoko pa sana kaso ay wala naman akong choice.
Nauna na akong bumaba sakanya. Hindi ko na sya hinintay, baka mag ka issue pa kapag nakita nila kaming mag kasama.
Alam mo na. Maraming inggitera sa mundo.
"Clarrise" and speaking of the devil.
I raised my eyebrow "Yes?"
"Hindi porket sikat kana ganyan kana aasta"
Di ko alam kung bakit inggit na inggit saakin ang babaeng to.
May mga tao talagang sisira at sisira ng araw mo sa ayaw at gusto mo.
"Then?" Pang iinis ko sakanya.
Namula ang mukha nito sa galit.
"Clarrise" napalingon sya sa tumawag sa aking pangalan.
"Mr. Hemsworth" namutla ang mukha nito.
Tch. Akala mo pa naman sinong matapang. Pag nandyan na si Kupal natatahimik naman. Ang plastic nya, kunwari mabait pero ang sama naman ng ugali. Tch.
Stop pretending, show your true color bitch
"What's the matter?" Seryosong tanong ni Kupal kay Ramirez. Nanatili lang akong nakatayo at tawang tawa haban pinagmamasdan syang nauutal.
"Naiinggit nana man eh sir. Sge na nakakaawa naman. I will please Maria para ibigay nalang sayo yung projects na ibinibigay saakin" I smirked and wave my hand.
"Miss na miss na kita gaga!"
Natawa ako. Ilang linggo ko na ding di nakikita si Taylor. Busy kasi sya sa bagong tayong coffee shop nya.
"Dadalawin nalang kita after my photoshoot"
"Dapat lang bruha! Porket sikat kana nakalimutan mo na ako!" Nalukot ang mukha ko dahil sa pagdadrama nya.
"Tigilan mo nga ako." Pagsusungit ko. Namiss ko tuloy ang kakulitan nya.
Sya lang naman ang nag iisang tao na nakaka tiis sa ugali ko. Kaya hindi ko matapon tapon ang babaeng to e.
"Basta puntahan moko ah?! Para naman dagsain lalo ang shop ko! Seeyou later bitch!"
Im happy for her. Matagal na nyang pangarap ang maka pag tayo ng coffee shop.
"You look happy"
"Wala ka bang gagawin? Para kang tae. Pakalat kalat kung saan" naiiritang sambit ko. Narinig ko ang mahinan pagtawa ni Dada na busy sa pag aayos ng buhok ko.
"I own this company so I will do whatever I want. Last time you gave me a pen name kupal and right now you're treating me like a pop. You're really something huh?"
I just roll my eyes "Oh yea whatever"
"By the way Taylor is asking me to come in her coffee shop with you"
That girl. May plano nana man sya. I knew it
"I'll just take a cab" pagtatanggi ko
"No. You're coming with me. No more but's and what if's baby girl" pagkatapos nyang iniwan nya akong nakatulala.
What the fck? Baby girl?
