Nang papalabas na si Jake sa pinto bigla siya napahinto may babae na dali dali pumasok sa opisina. The woman pushed him aside he staggered backward and holds the door to stand firmly.
“Dave! tumakbo ang babae papunta kay Dave at yumakap dito.
Marian was stunned sa tingin niya magkalapit ang dalawa at close sa isat isa hindi pa niya masyado natignan ang mukha na kilala niya ito.
Dave pushes the woman away from his body as he was allergic to the smell of perfume.
“Let go! Dave says in an icy voice.
Natakot ang babae at lumayo ng kaunti.
“Bakit ba ang sungit mo sa iba. Kadadating ko lang galing Amerika at may pasalubong ako sa iyo at regalo para sa nalalapit mong birthday.”
“Dave eyebrow tightened and ordered Jake. “Please! Send Miss Montenegro out!
“Miss tayo na marami po trabaho si President ngayon.”
“Dave! natigilan ang babae at napatingin kay Marian.
“Marami ginagawa Eh, ano ang ginagawa ng babaeng yan dito.” “Marian, ang sabi ng balita ikaw ang girlfriend ni Dave? Ikakama ka lang niya! “At ang General manager position sa Waterfront sa akin dapat iyon!
“Miss Montenegro, watch your mouth! Dave's face looking cold and fierce.
“Hindi ko lang siya basta babae, wala ka karapatan na laitin siya sa harap ko. She was the woman I want to marry.”
“Dave, anong meron ang babaeng ito na wala ako.” Habang umiiyak.
“Gusto mong malaman! You are a beauty but without brains.”
“To tell you frankly, hindi ako magkakagusto sa isang babae na di ginagamit ang utak, palengkera at mabunganga just like you.” “You are only a little sister to me, nothing more nothing less.”
Do you want to hear more?
“Stop!
Bigla lumapit si Hazel kay Marian at akma na sasampalin si Marian pero nahawakan nito ang kanyang kamay. Lalapit sana si Jake para pigilan si Hazel pero pinigilan siya ni Dave.
“Panoorin muna natin kung ano ang gagawin ni Marian.”
Hindi nila napansin nagising na si Aaron at nakita nito na akma sasampalin si Marian ni Hazel.
“Don’t hurt my Mama, Bad woman! itinulak niya ito.
Nagulat si Marian ng biglang pumagitna ai Aaron sa kanila ni Hazel. Aaron! niyakap niya ito
“How dare you take Dave away from me! Tatabigin sana ni Hazel si Aaron ng bigla magsalita si Dave.
“Ow, really Miss Montenegro sa pagkakaalam ko never naging kayo. Tignan mo ang inasal mo sinong lalake ang magkakagusto sa iyo.” “Kulang na lang lumuwa pati kaluluwa mo sa suot mong damit at ang pabango mo ang sakit sa ilong at nakakahilo masyado masangsang tulad ng bunganga mo.”
Matagal na nagtitimpi si Marian kay Hazel kaya di na niya pinalampas ang pagkakataon na ito.
“Miss Montenegro, you want to slap me! “I will send my resignation letter to the Waterfront Hotel right away.” “The position is all yours Miss Montenegro, I know you have longed coveted that position.”
Dave cooperates with Marian he stood up on his chair and stops beside Marian holding Marian’s waist.
“Miss Montenegro hindi ako nananakit ng babae but I don’t mind doing it in favor of my woman and my son.”
Hazel was speechless and afraid of Dave. Hindi akalain ni Marian na magsasalita si Dave para sa kanya.
Hazel stomped her feet and angrily took her bag and left Dave's office. Jake was surprised and didn’t expect Marian to dodge Hazel's attacks and still looks calm.
“Dave,lalabas muna ako.” Tumingin si Dave at tumango.
Clap! Clap! Clap! Bravo! That’s my wife. Very Good!
Di ba ang gaan sa pakiramdam pag naka ganti ka?
“Matagal na ako nagtitimpi sa kanya madalas niya ako pinagbibintangan ng kung ano ano, di ko lang magawa.”
“Sigurado ako tanggal na ako sa trabaho ko.”
“Bakit nagawa mo kanina.”
Siguro dahil nandyan ka para ipagtanggol ako?
“Di wag ka na magtrabaho sa bahay ka na lang mag alaga kay Aaron at sa magiging anak natin.”
“Ayoko ng walang ginagawa.”
Dave sat beside Marian cups her cheeks, looks at her eyes, and says, “Work with me here I have a position for you as my wife.” “Beside me, you are safe and secure walang magpapalayas sa yo maliban sa akin, at magiging mataas ang position mo kay Daniel.”
What position?
“Vice President for Operations.”
“Huh! Bakit ako?
“Di ba graduate ka ng HRM?
This is your chance at my kasabihan “two heads are better than one.” “I study Business management and major in economics and finance and human psychology and you also study HRM your major was hotel management and also study business and major in Accounting.”
“Pa… paano mo nalaman… “Alam mo lahat ang tungkol sa akin?
“Would you believe me if I say yes?
Dave kissed Marian on the lips and she closed her eyes and kissed back. When they were out of breath they separate but their forehead was connected. Marian opens her eyes and Dave speaks in a hoarse voice.
“Honey will stop for a while as we are still in the office and our son was looking at us. And I have a surprise for you tonight as my wedding gift.”
“I want you to work in our hotel for our children in the future.”
“Help me manage this hotel, hmm.”
“Alright!
Dave smiles meaningfully and caresses her checks.
“Daniel lost not only you, his everything will lose.” “He dumped you I will give his position to you,” Dave says inside his mind.
Marian ayaw mo ba na magkasama tayo sa trabaho?
“Gusto, kaya lang nandito din si Daniel lagi kami magkikita?
“Daniel wouldn’t dare to bully you.”
“Don’t bother about him. Your office was opposite mine.”
“Do you think I will let Daniel bully you? “As my wife, I am responsible for you.”
Do you know many women who wanted to climb my bed?
“I don’t know.”
“You are the only one who succeeds.”
Marian lowered her head feeling embarrassed.
“I will announce our marriage on my birthday, for now, will keep it a secret.” Is it okay with you?
Marian nodded. “What if… di ako magustuhan ng pamilya mo.”
“Wala na sila magagawa kasal na tayo and besides di naman sila magsasama tayo.”
“Huwag mo sila intindihin basta kasama mo ako lumaban ka.”
“I don’t experience motherly love only my grandfather loves me. That’s why my grandfather sent me to study abroad to groom me, to be a tyrant in business and cruel to enemies.
You are one of the most important people in my life now, along with Aaron, with you and me by his side. I am not living alone. I feel like you patch up the missing pieces in my heart.”
“Do you know why I married you? Not just Aaron likes you he loves you likes his biological mother. Because you are the missing piece of the puzzle in my heart. Before my life was dull and lonely, I sleep and eat alone without anyone to talk to. I always work till my mind got tired and went home with no one waiting for me.” "They said I was indifferent and don’t know how to conceal myself. I gave people a mysterious feeling and can charm them but ruthless.” Dave told all to Marian.
