Axelly**
I groaned and yawned.
Where's dad?
Nasa tapat kami ng Company? He told me saglit lang siya. I looked my watch its almost time. Baka nahirapan siya mag hanap ng document may pag ka burara pa naman yon.
Kaya I decided to follow him.
Nakapamulsa ako sa sout kong hoody jacket habang palabas ng elevator pero ganun nalang ang panglaki ng mata ko ng makita nakaluhod si dad may naka ninja style na sumipa sa panga ni dad.
"DAD"
Hindi ko mapigilan sarili ko ng bumagsak na si dad.
Kaya tumakbo ako walang pasabi sinipa ko siya sa sikmura napahawak siya doon dahil sure ako sa abdomen niya tumama ang paa ko luckily I'm wearing a shoes.
Muli ko siya sisipain ng masalo na niya ito walang pakundangan sinuntok ang tuhod ko ng dahilan ng pag daing ko f**k!
"You Witch" Gigil na anas ko.
"Wrong I'm b***h"
Saka niya ako pinaulanan ng suntok at sipa pero nasasalag ko lang ito lahat kaya sinalo ko ang kanan kamay niya gamit ang kaliwa ko ganun sa kanan ko sinalo ang kaliwang kamay niya saka ko sinangga ng tuhod ko ang paparating niyang sipa.
Nginisihan ko siya,
"Who are you b***h" walang emosyon na tanung ko sa kanya pero taimtim lang nakatingin sakin ang asul niyang mata.
Asul na mata?
"It's you again. Ms blue'eyes" casual na saad ko at pabalang siya binitiwan.
Binalingan ko ng tingin si dad may dugo ito sa panga pero hindi naman malala dahil naka preteng nakaupo sa couch.
"We meet again" Blue eyes said.
"Wrong blue eyes, You encounter me again. What's your business again?" I asked boredly.
Pinakita niya sakin ang isang brown envelope. I turned my head.
"Ano laman ng envelope dad?"
He just shrug his shoulder. Okey ang sarap mo kausap mo sa part na yan dad ts.
"Important?" I added.
"I don't know either pero mukang importante hindi nya siguro pag aaksayahan kung hindi importante yan." tango-tango ako sa sinabe ni dad.
"Okey. You can take that Ms. Blue'eyes" Nanlaki naman ang mata nilang dalawa kaya ngumisi lang ako.
"Hide it very well. I will get that when the time come. For now dad were late." saka ko inayos ang sarili ko naantok pa talaga ako lumakad na ako palabas ng office ni dad sumunod naman sakin si dad agad.
"Elly! Why did you let her?" My dad is pissed of.
But I don't mind him sumunod lang siya sakin sa loob ng elevator ngunit bago pa sumara ng elevator nakatingin siya sakin si Ms. Blue'eyes tinggal ang sout niya na nakatabing sa muka niya at pinakita ang mapaglarong ngisi niya pero kinindatan ko lang siya.
But dad still nagging me with the whole ride. Why did i let her? Bakit binigay ko ang envelope? Dapat daw kinuha ko yon sa kanya or hindi ko daw dapat na pinakawalan pa.
Well, I don't care.
I'm paying what I owe to her. For saving my brother from the goons kaya ko siya hinayaan. Atleast I don't owing anything to her saka malakas ang palagay ko na magkikita pa kami lalo na nasa paligid lang siya.
"Welcome Mr. Lawrien and Ms. Lawrien" bati samin ng mga kameeting namin.
Medyo late kami, mga 1 hour lang naman kase nmaan po ang bagal ng tatay ko hindi siya naka move on sa nanyari!
"Sorry for waiting us so long. Something just happened that we did not expect. I hope you understand." I apologize.
Bago kami nag sipuan.
"We understand." sagot nila samin.
"So, shall we?" dad askes.
Tumango naman sila at nag simula na sila sa mag present.
"-That's all. I hope that you liked it and Sign the contract." Mr. Costa.
I raise my eyebrows.
"Aren't you in a hurry?" gamit ang mataray kong tono.
I'm not inlegal age pero pag dating sa company ni Mom ako na ang nag dedecide of course with the help of my dad.
"My daughter is right." singit ni dad as usual pokerface siya.
"But Mr. Lawrien we already explained and discussed very well about the Ecosta Project." Mr. Costa
Dinampot ko ang papeles which is the Ecosta Project. Nilatag ko ang isa papeles doon na ikinalunok niya.
"How do we sign the contract if we withdraw money from our company that we will lose a lot. Who do you think is in front of you to fool us like this?" malamig na anas ko sa kanila.
Hinagis ko ang contrata sa kanila.
"And the contract you show us is fake. What do you think will happen to you?"
Blanko ko sila Mr. Costa binalingan na ngayon nanginginig na nakatingin sakin.
"You wasted our time." saka ako tumayo at iniwan sila doon.
Dad will handle them. Bumalik ako sa hotel room ko para ituloy ang tulog ko dahil antok na antok pa talaga ako. Pesteng Ecosta Corp. na yon sinayang lang ang oras namin.
FLORIE**
"Mom tito D is here" My son called me.
"Okey baby" I answered bago ako lumabas ng kitchen.
Preteng nakaupo si Davil at Miya sa sala. Nabaling ang tingin nilang dalawa sakin kaya blanko ko lang sila tinignan. Buti nalang papaalis na ang anak ko ng dumating sila.
"Buongiorno" (Good morning) I greeted them. Nag nod lang sila.
"You did not say that you will return to the Philippines as early as five months before the new heir begins to train." I said.
Alam ko na kung bakit sila nandito pero parang masyado pa atang maaga para bumalik sila.
Kunot noo kong tinignan si Miya na busy sa pagtitipa samantalang busy naman si Davil sa pag inum ng tea.
" We did not come for that" Miya said seriously bago niya hinarap sakin ang laptop and It was a CCTV footage.
This is the footage about Axello inciddent.
Kitang kita sa video pwersahan pinapasok ng tatlong lalaki si Axello sa nakaparadang puting van ngunit walang plate number. Nang akmang isasakay na nila si xel sa van may bumaril sa noo nilang tatlo and the bullet came from the girl behind of xel. Hindi klaro sa cctv footage ang muka ng babae dahil nakatabing ang buhok neto sa kanyang muka upang hindi namin siya mamukaan. Sandali sila xel nag usap bago dumating si Elly ngunit bago tuluyan mag laho ang babae ngumisi ito sa mismong camera pero labi lang niya ang nakita sa camera.
It gives me goosebumps!
"Chi è lei" (who is she?) Asked but Miya shrug her shoulder para bang wala lang yon. Should i thanked her pero may iba kase ako sa pakiramdam ko sa babaeng yon hindi ko matukoy kung kalaban ba ito o kasapi namin.
"La mamma sta tornando qui. Vuole restare qui fino al compleanno dell'ereditiera." (Mama is going back here. She want to stay here until the heiress birthday came.) Marahas na buntong hininga ang pinakawalan ko ng marinig ko ang sambit ni Davil.
Mamma is coming back? I think hindi lang basta yon lang lalo nat nandito din sila meron pang iba. Hindi basta basta maari makalabas ng bansa si Mamma lalu na kung hindi naman ganito kahalaga kaya ako alam may iba pa.
"Tell me the truth what is it? Is there something happen in Italy?" I worriedly asked.
"The France starting a war." nanigas ako at parang kinakapos ang aking hininga ng marinig ko ang balita ni Miya sakin.
Hindi ito maganda. Wala pa kaming bagong pamalit sa mga pwesto na iniwan namin hindi pa pwede ang aking anak dahil bata pa ito at alam ko hindi papayag si Sette tungkol dito.
"And the other member of the Ministry House is starting to take the plunge and side with Dauleriz. The whole Empire is facing a big problem now that it started when they discovered that the Queen is really gone and now will replaced by the new heir. The Ministry did not agree they wanted to remove the new heir from their path. That's way where here right now. We need to take care the new heiress with all cost" She problematic said.
Biglang bagsak balikat akong napasandal saking kinauupuan ko. Hindi maari ito.
"How could they not agree?" I asked worriedly damn. When Yra still alive i'm sure this trouble gonna happen.
"They found out that the new heir had no royal blood so they wanted to end it." kalmadong sagot ni Miya sakin.
Natawa ako. Hindi ito dugong maharlika kaya gusto nila patayin si Elly? Binaling ko ng tingin si davil na parang walang pakialam sa pinag uusapan namin.
"What are you going to do now? Your child is what they want to kill." I asked him seriously.
Halos takasan ako ng dugo ng malamig niya ako tinignan para bang sa tingin niya palang pinaplano niya akong patayin lalo nagiging asul na ang mata na ito.
"What else do you want me to then?" he said coldly and his eye's filled in no emotion.
I swallowed suddenly and was forced to smile at him but he just ended up grinning.
"You have no intention of saying that the new heir is of noble blood. In fact, the new heir is pure royal blood because she is the daughter of the Queen and King of the Empire." I stated of as the matter of fact.
Yon nalang kase ang nakikita kong paraan para maligtas si Elly.
"When the right times come." Nakikilabot na sambit na davil at saka nag pakawala ng makahulugan niyang ngisi.
Ako lang ba? Parang meron hindi talaga tama sa nanyayari.Panigurado akong meron siyang plano dahil yon ang pagkakakilala ko sa kanya pero kahit ganun hindi ko maiwasan makaramdam ng pangamba lalo nat Dauleriz ang aming kalaban panigurado ako ginagamit nila ang pagkakataon na ito upang mapalitan ang maaring maging tagapagmana.
Ang Dauleriz ang isa sa mga may makapangyarihan at may dugong maharlika kaya napapaniguro ko kaya nila ito ginagawa upang mapunta sa kanila ang buong Empire at tuluyan nang mawala sa Legacy ang Angkan nila Yra!
Damn that Dauleriz!
SOMEONE****
I smiled as I walked inside my secret house here in Batangas.
I entered a large room that is here in this house. I couldn't help but smile bitterly when I saw the whole room but I didn't have time to do drama.
I took off my clothes and went into the restroom here in this room. I have a big bathtub so I took the milk and roses I bought at these times I want to rest first. I want to forget why I am here in this place. I went down to the bathtub I leaned my head and slowly closed my eyes to feel better.
A few minutes later I was about to fall asleep when my cellphone suddenly rang.
I took my phone and I saw the name of the caller. It was Collen.
I sighed before answering,
"Make sure it's important. Your disturbing me" I heard him chuckles first that make me pissed off because of his voice.
"Spill it or break your neck" I threatened him
"The new heir is in danger now." my jaw tightened because of what I heard.
"How?"
"The ministry found out that the new heir was not of noble blood so they wanted to dispose of it and replace the youngest son of the late queen." He reported.
I couldn't help but laugh because I heard. I can only say one thing they are stupid ..
"How about the king?" i asked.
"Richanno siblings are already here in the Philippines. Mamma is coming too" I smirked.
"Okay. Add a guardian to the two children of the former queen. Make sure the two children are safe, including the heirs of Alcantara. If something bad happens to them, your life will be the replacement, do you understand?" I dismissively said.
"Copy" I heard before I indeed the called.
The game is getting more,more exciting!
