Dave, Marian, and Aaron went home to Dave different Penthouse as Aaron was sleeping when they arrive. Dave put Aaron to his bed and Marian cleans Aaron's face and body with a wet towel and dressed him. They went out to Aaron’s room and Dave carry Marian to his bedroom.
“Marian, I want to tell you about myself honestly because I don’t want you to misunderstand me. I have to look cold and aloof to other people. Gusto ko matakot sila sa akin kahit sa tingin lang.”
“Please bear with me sometimes if I lost my temper? “Gusto ko ang unang tao na makakaintindi sa akin ay ikaw dahil ikaw ang magiging kahinaan ko balang araw.”
“So, I will prepare you to become strong and adapt my being a tyrant to other people especially our enemies.”
“Our enemies?
“Yes, Marian. "In business, I have so many enemies as you are my wife they will get what they want to put me down through you." “What is mine is yours and what is yours is mine.”
“My enemy is your enemy and your enemy is also my enemy." “I believe in the saying that keeps your friends close and your enemies closer.”
“Ba… Bakit mo sinasabi sa akin lahat ng sekreto mo, di ka ba natatakot na ipagsabi ko ito sa iba?
“I trust you, Marian, to tell you frankly, I don’t just like you.” while tucking Marian's hair behind her ears.
Dave pulls her close and kissed her passionately, Marian kissed back and put her hands around Dave's neck their kiss became intense and Dave lay Marian on the bed. They forgot where they are, the world stops for them, and their body move in sync as they became one.
“I love You, Marian! Thank you for coming into my life.” Dave whispers into Marian’s ear.
“I know it was too sudden to answer me back but the first time we meet I fell in love with you on the night of my brother’s birthday two years ago.”
“I think I like you too Dave! I never felt this way before.” Marian says softly.
“Dave was stunned,” What did you say? Marian pulls him close and whispers into his ears.
“I like you too, Honey!
Dave smiles widely. Dave kiss Marian all over her body tenderly, while he was inside of her “Honey! Ahh! “Marian! hon, Urghh! They reach their peak of happiness together.
They both panting hard and Dave was smiling happily. He pulls Marian into a hug and covers both of them with a thick blanket. Marian hugs Dave back.
Walang pagsidlan ng saya si Dave lalo na ng sabihin sa kanya ni Marian na gusto siya nito. Sa sobrang saya parang gusto niya sumigaw.
They hug each other. Dave rubs her shoulder tenderly while looking at the ceiling smiling. Marian lay her head on Dave's chest hugging his abs smiling happily they remain in this position for they don’t know how long. No one spoke after a while Dave’s phone rings. He looked at the caller ID and it indicates. “LOLO” on the caller ID.
Dave: “Good evening! Lo. What’s up?
Don Leandro: “Mag usap tayo bukas sa opisina may importante ako na sasabihin sa iyo.” Tonong galit.
Dave: What is it about? I have a hint it’s about that brat Hazel?
Don Leandro: “Let us talk tomorrow in the office.”
Dave: “Okay, goodnight Lo!
Umupo si Dave sa kama at hinalikan si Marian sa noo. Tumayo siya at pumasok siya sa banyo at mabilis na naligo at nagbihis ng pantulog na damit. Si Marian ay nakahiga sa kama at nakapikit ang mata.
“Hon, my grandfather was coming to my office tomorrow.” Do you want to come with me para mapakilala kita sa kanya?
Biglang dumilat si Marian ng marinig niya ang sinabi ni Dave.
“I want to. What if di niya ako magustuhan at magalit siya sa iyo.”
“No, Hon my Lolo was very understanding. He always favors me and he believes in me.” “I already prepare your CV to show him what you are.”
“My lolo was very considerate, hindi siya mata pobre katulad ng ibang mga Don.”
“Okay. Let’s go to sleep.” Marian answered na hindi na maidilat ang mata sa antok.
Dave went inside the cover and hugs Marian and they went to sleep.
The next day. Marian woke up early went to the kitchen to cook breakfast. But she did not saw any ingredients to cook. She went back to the bedroom and take a bath. When she was going out of the bath Dave was awake.
“Fix yourselves there’s some woman clothes inside my wardrobe. I prepared it in the case will not be able to go home to my other place.”
“Can you order breakfast?
“Okay! What do you want to eat?
“Anything you like I am not a picky eater.” Dave pecked a kiss on her lips smiling. Before going out of the room.
After they ate breakfast they went into Dave's office and waited for Don Leandro's arrival.
Dave was sitting on her chair inside his office when Jake knocks.
“Come in! “What brings you here Lolo.” “How was your health?
“Dave! What is this I heard about Montenegro’s family complaining about you?
“About me? For rejecting her, I think?
“What do you mean Dave? She was one of the candidates that I plan for you to marry.”
“Lolo, you know, What I like for a woman? “And Hazel was not, she was so immature, spoiled brat and no brains.”
“Ipapakilala ko sa iyo ang asawa ko Lolo.”
“Asawa! Kasal na kayo?
“Opo, Lolo look at her CV you will see why I married her.”
Don Leandro Saavedra is 70 years old grandfather of Alex and Daniel. Ruthless and a tyrant in business when he was at Alex's age. But he was kind and considerate to the people who respect him. His eyebrows raised when he reads Marian's profile. He was impressed with Marian’s achievements.
“No wonder! You choose and marry her. She’s an asset to our company.”
“Why don’t you convince her to work for our company?
“I already did and she was starting to work on Monday as VP for Operations position was vacant.”
“Good job! Hindi ako nagkamali sa paglagay sa iyo sa posisyon na iyan, iniisip ko pa lang kumikilos ka na.”
“Where is my granddaughter-in-law? “I want to meet her.”
“Sandali lang Lolo, puntahan ko andiyan siya sa loob nag aayos at nahihiya sa iyo, baka daw pagalitan mo ako.”
Pumasok si Dave sa loob ng lounge at nakita niya si Marian na lumalakad ng pabalik balik.
“Hon! What took you so long? “Lolo was asking for you.”
“D…Hon! Nahihiya ako humarap sa kanya.”
“Bakit ka nahihiya, napakaganda kaya ng asawa ko.”
“Hon, naman eh, huwag mo nga ako bolahin.”
“Aaron, is Mama beautiful?
“Beautiful! Aaron says smiling.
“We’re not joking, my wife was beautiful.”
‘Sige ka maiinip iyon at pupunta dito mas lalo ka mapapahiya.”
“Okay, Let’s go! Huminga si Marian ng malalim bago lumabas ng kuwarto.
Paglabas nila ng kuwarto “Lolo! Aaron says. Nagulat ang Don ng marinig niya nagsalita si Aaron.
“Apo! Come to Lolo. Arms open wide and smiling happily.”
"Kailan pa muli magsalita si Aaron? Don Leandro asks.
“When she met my wife she runs to her and shouts Mama.”
“Salamat sa iyo iha.” Na mamasa masa and mata.
“Wala po iyon Don Leandro.”
Pinakilala ni Dave si Marian sa kanyang Lolo.
“Don Leandro Saavedra meet your grand-daughter in-law my wife Marian Sandoval.”
“Nice to meet you Don Leandro, Mano po!
“Call me Lolo, please sit down.” “Huwag kang mahihiya lumapit sa akin kapag sinaktan ka ng apo ko, masaya ako at naka tagpo na rin si Dave ng magmamahal at mag aalaga sa kanila kapag wala ako." “I think you already know, kung paano lumaki si Dave sa pamilya niya.”
Dave, can you leave us alone for a while? “I want to talk to her in person.”
“Sige po Lolo kukuha lang ako ng maiinom.”
Dave looked at Marian and he nodded at her before going out of the room.
“Marian, isa lang ang gusto ko sabihin sa iyo at ipakiusap sana mahalin mo at alagaan si Dave intindihin mo siya at huwag mong iwan , ako ang nagturo sa kanya kaya siya naging ganyan, emotionless at walang paki alam.”
“Ikaw lang ang tanging babae na ipinakilala niya sa akin.” “Matanda na ako at sana bago ako magpaalam ay makita ko ang aking magiging mga apo.” “Maliit pa si Dave ng mamatay ang mama niya, nag asawa muli ang kanyang ama pero nakikita ko na hindi siya tinatrato ng tama ng ina ni Daniel. Kaya ng tumuntong siya ng high school pinadala ko siya sa kapatid ko sa California para doon magpatuloy ng pag-aaral.”
“Lumaki siya na di nakakaranas ng pagmamahal ng isang ina, kaya ng lumaki si Dave; madalas siya lang mag isa at wala masyadong kaibigan at ayaw sa mga babae.”
“What about Aaron? Bakit siya nagkaganyan?
“Two years ago, Aaron her mom, and dad were driving home from a family dinner when their car crashed.” “And only Aaron was survived and saw what really happened.”
“I promise po Lolo, I will take care of Dave and Aaron.”
“Aasahan ko ang pangako mo iha!
“Makakaasa po kayo Lolo.”
“Good girl! No wonder Dave married you.” “Punta kayo sa bahay sa Sabado para mapakita ko sa iyo ang mga baby pictures ni Dave at Aaron." "Bigay mo sa akin ang f*******: account mo para ma chat at matatawagan kita, pati na rin phone number mo.”
“Sige po,” Pinakita ni Marian ang f*******: niya sa Lolo ni Dave at inaccept niya kaagad.”
Pinadalhan siya nito ng mga pictures ni Dave ng siya ay nasa Amerika pa. Abala ang dalawa sa kanilang phone hindi nila namalayan na pumasok na si Dave na may dalang tea, juice at cake.
