Twisted Love

Apollo’s pov- I saw her glaring at the stranger who tried to approach her. Lumapit kase ang lalaki sa kanya and according to his gestures at pag abot nya ng phone nya kay kiana ay nanghihingi ito ng number. I know kiana won’t give it so i did’t bother to worry. I just stood there watching kiana dump him on the spot. ‘That’s my girl' Even though she never saw me, i never showed myself to her, she has no idea na ako ang tao sa likod ng lahat ng nakamit nya ngayon. Yes, i made her what she is now after her father died. From her studies, until she graduates and even her job. I gave and used everything in my power to do that. Lahat ng nangyayari sa kanya ay kontrolado ko. Even her first job was a bit of a pain. Nag-apply sya sa isang mamahaling resto and the boss likes her. And that made me lose my mind so i find a way para siraan ang resto and i succeeded. Akin lang sya i did not come this far para lang masira lahat ng plano ko. Her dream job is to be a professional chef. So i introduced her to my friend na may-ari ng pinakamalaking 5 star hotel abroad. Since she has a degree, nice background and good grades ay madali ko syang napapasok. No need to interview her daw but i said they should kase baka magtaka sya bakit biglaan. I contacted a friend of hers mula sa tao ko na iintroduce sakanya tong company na sa friend ko and she grabbed it. I knew she would. Matalino sya and has a very practical mindset. She is Kiana Velloso and she’s now 23 while I am 26. I was born in Australia and stayed there for 13 years. I migrated here to the Philippines because of my father’s will for me to study business and handle our own company when I graduated. I have my own company and was also a business partner of Kiana’s father. My father doesn’t have anyone to handle our business and he wants to retire in business so I agreed to handle it. I am 6’4 tall since I have mixed blood. My father is Australian so I have a complex figure but they say I look like a model for my height and my looks. Enough with that intro, so now I am managing our company since my father retired a few years ago. I was in my room thinking on how to introduce myself to her. Hindi ko alam kung may alam ba sya sa koneksyon namin ng papa nya pero for sure may alam na sya dahil sa kanyang investigator. I still don’t have the courage to show myself to her. Yes, I admit duwag ako but only to her. She is my strength as well as my weakness, I don’t know how did I catch my feelings for her. I promised her father before he passed out that I will take care of her. Now all of my plans have come into it’s places. Isa nalang ang kulang. For her to know me and i am not ready. Hindi pa ako handang kamuhian nya ako. Ito lang ang planong hindi ko kontrolado. Nasa kanya ang lahat ng desisiyon at naiisip ko palang na she will hate me after knowing the truth behind her father’s death ay diko kakayanin. ‘’Sir someone wants to talk to you’’ – my secretary said through the intercom. ‘’Who?’’ ‘’He said 1648’’ – she said like somewhat confused. ‘’Let him in’’ – I ordered ‘’GOOD AFTERNOON MR. COLLINS’’ – my private investigator said. ‘’So what brings you here?’’- I said while folding some of the folders I have signed. 1648 is his secret identification. ‘’Here’’ At nilapag nya ang isang brown envelope sa table ko and i eyed him before opening it. It has pictures in it where i see Kiana together with a guy at nasa isang cafe sila malapit sa pinagtatrabahuan niya. May background information din na kasali sa envelope and says the guy is kiana’s hired investigator to investigate her father’s death. I know hindi sya susuko hanggat hindi nya nakakamit and hustisya ng papa nya. She is a brave and determined woman. How lucky for her father to have her. ‘’Don’t worry, I’ve locked all that investigator’s possible sources that can be connected to you’’ – sabi nya with a firm look. ‘’Good, you may leave.’ – I said and examines the pictures once again. I can’t get tired of seeing her face every day. No wonder maraming nagkakagusto sa kanya but i will not let them get her. Even touch her, breath the same air with her. Yes, she doesn’t experience a boyfriend yet. I blocked them before they could get to her I have my ways to handle them. When it comes to Kiana, nothing will get to her without passing to me first. Flashback---- ‘’Apollo, you know that I care about this company and I’ve spent my whole life in here, I can’t lose this, not now.’- the man in front of me said with fear visible in his eyes. ‘’I know that is why I am asking you to be my partner because I have better sources and connections to help you’’ – sagot ko In business, we need to negotiate and play the games for the good and betterment of your company even dirty works are needed to cover up and earn clean feedback to your customers. ‘’Okay. kaw nalang ang makakapitan ko, if only i have other choice'’– he stated and sighed. End of flashback------ Third person’s pov: Si kiana ay isang purong pilipina na lumaki sa marangyang pamilya. Wala syang problema sa pera kasi hindi sya tinitipid ng kanyang ama palibhasa ay unika-iha sya. Wala na syang ina dahil namatay ito sa pagpapanganak sa kanya. Sa mga panahong iyon ay nawala sa landas ang ama nya ngunit naalala nyang may anak syang iniwan ng kanyang asawa kaya kaylangan nyang alagaan ito gaya ng pinangako nya sa kanyang asawa. Lumaking magandang dalaga si kiana at di maipagkailang may itsura ito. 5’7 ang height nya at maganda ang katawan kaya maraming nagkakandarapa sa kanya ngunit ang pinag-tataka nya ay hindi umaabot ang isang araw ay iniiwasan agad sya ng mga ito at hindi nya alam kung bakit. Hindi nya lamang ito pinansin dahil may ibang mga bagay pa syang mas importanteng gawin kesa makipagrelasyon. At iyon ay ang pagkamit ng hustisya ng kanyang ama.
