DUKE

What a beautiful day to begin. I checked my wrist watch to see what time it is—it was already 9:00 AM. "Sir, we're here," said Jane, who was sitting beside the driver. The security guard who was on post, opens the door for me. "Good morning, sir!" he greeted me, and then he lowered half of the upper part of his body to bow down, showing his respect; all my people always do the same thing, they were trained to do so.

I noticed an unfamiliar car was parked on our family's personal parking lot. "Who's car is this?" I immediately noticed the car because it was an Aston Martin Valkyrie sports car, which is not my type; sports cars aren't my taste, I preferr cars which are elegantly looking like Rolls-Royce, Mercedes Benz and Cadillac— those are the brands of the cars which I only collects.

"Sir, that's the car of Miss Vlance. Sir Vladimir called a while ago, and he told me that Miss Vlance will be arriving at the office so I told the people to prepare a space for her car." Jane said. My peaceful day turned into a hell kind-a-like feeling, just by hearing the name of that psycho.

Our family always consider the Del Prados as part of our family, that is why Jane was very meticulous in arraging appointments with them, they are always free to do whatever they wanted to do, which includes to have the privilege to park their cars in our family's private parking lot.

Napukaw ang atensyon namin nang bigla kaming makarinig ng isang malakas na boses ng isang babae na maingay na kumakanta; her voice was echoing to every corner of the entire parking lot.

Nahagip ng mga mata namin ang kinaroroonan ng boses at nakita namin si Vlance. She was riding on her hoverboard, wearing a black The Beatles T-shirt, a knee level khaki short pants, a New York Yankee cap on her head, a black Adidas gym bag was hanging on her shoulder, and a pair of Ganni Alma sneaker shoes.

They say I'm crazy

They are wrong

They are wrong

I'm not a crazy

No I'm not

No I'm not

But I'm a psycho

Yes I am

Yes I am

Oh Oh Insane

Oh Oh I'm Insanely beautiful

Yeaah Yeaaah

She was singing and rapping with her lungs feeling the melodies and every beat of her own composed song album. I admit, her voice is undeniably beatiful, she has an euphonious voice like a mermaid with a little husky tone like a real rockstar. She really got a talent.

The guards who are patrolling was staring at her; they might be thinking she must be crazy.

Jane was about to call her, but I stopped her. There is no way we're gonna be together on the same elevator.

"Jane, call the head of the legal department and get someone who could pick Judge Nick," I said authoritatively.

"Don't ever bother calling that psycho. Just ignore her and let her find her own way, going to my office," I added. I don't feel giving a warm welcome to that psycho. I don't care if she'll have to take the long process before going to my office. She doesn't deserve any special treatment from me. Never!

---

"Thank you very much, gentlemen. Expect that this will be another big hit." I said, talking with the other officials regarding some business matters, here in my office.

We stood up, and then we shook our hands. "Oh, come on, Duke. Masiyado mong sineseryoso ang lahat ng bagay. Why don't have fun sometime? You're still too young to stress yourself with work, besides, ikaw din naman ang magmamana ng lahat ng ito."

Mr. Gonzales said.

"Mr. Gonzales have a point, Duke. Why don't come with us and play golf some other time? or maybe go out and meet some women. At your age, you should be spending time having fun with them. Come on, hindi mo pagsisisihan ang lahat ng mga 'yon pagdating ng araw." Mr. Martinez second the motion.

"Okay, let's play golf some other time." I said. I'd rather play golf than go wasted. Golf is much better, mapag-uusapan pa namin ang tungkol sa kung paano pa mapapalago ang negosyo. Fun is just a waste of time; it is just a useless thing wherein immatured lossers enjoy spending their life with.

They both chuckled. "Ikaw talagang bata ka, we thought you'd consider going out with girls." Mr. Martinez said.

"Duke has a very high standard with everything, as well as with dating and women," said Mr. Gonzales. He is right.

"Well, he deserves it anyway," Mr. Martinez agreed.

"Why don't you go out with my niece, Celestine, she's the daugther of my wife's sister. I'm sure you know her, everybody knows her, and she was known for being a perfectionist lady. Bagay na bagay kayo." Mr. Martinez said.

Celestine. She is a good catch too, and a way much more better than Vlance. Just like me, Celestine is also a perfectionist; she is a woman of pefection but it is not the virtous

one, she's a tactless narcissist b***h, and I find her rude.

"Of course, I know her—" Magsasalita pa lang sana ako nang biglang matigil kami sa pag-uusap nang makarinig kami ng malakas na kalabog mula sa labas. Nagmadali kaming lumabas sa opisina at doon nadatnan namin na nagkakagulo na pala sa labas.

"What the?" Nakita ko ang mga empleyado ko na nakapatong sa lamesa ng kani-kanilang mga cubicles. Nagkalat ang lahat ng mga papel at mga office supplies sa sahig. It was a horrible disaster.

Awtomatikong lumipat ang tingin ko sa kinaroroonan ng isang malakas at aliw na aliw na halakhak ng kung sino sa kabila ng gulong naganap.

awtomatikong nalukot ang mukha ko nang makilala ko kung kanino nanggagaling ang

halakhak na 'yon.

"You!" I yelled firmly with my clenched jaws.

It was Vlance with a python crawling on her neck and shoulders. That psycho! After causing a huge disaster at my office she still has the guts to laugh as if it wasn't her fault.

One of my employee got injured after she accidentally stept on that psycho's hoverboard which caused her to stumble down the ground, while two of them fainted after they saw her pet python. My office looks terribly messed up.

I looked at her furiously. She was still carrying her python on her shoulders. Why did she brought a python here in my office? Because of that, my office looks like a hurricane passed by.

She rode on her hoverboard, and then playfully hovered going to my direction. "Good morning, Duke!" I closed my eyes and took a heavy breath trying to calm myself. She still has the guts to greet me a good morning after the trouble she just made!

"Good morning? Are you kidding me? After all what you did, you're greeting me a Good morning?" I said unbelievably

"Okay, fine. Bad morning, Duke!" She really is trying my patience, huh?

The day was just about to begin, but she just destroyed it with in just a single shot. Ang galing niya! I chuckled in disbelief.

"Bakit ka nagdala ng hayop dito? Nasisiraan ka ba ng ulo?"

She nodded. "I guess so. People used to call me a psycho monster." I just gave her a blank stare. Tumalikod ako at sinundan niya ako papasok sa opisina ko habang nakasakay pa rin sa hoverboard niya.

"Teri." I called for my AI to ask her to automatically print a document from my computer—The file was a contract of our marriage aggreements. I had already talked with my lawyers regarding this matter and I had let them arrange everything. I have finally decided to marry this psycho just to make the entire Galdonez and Imperial family to be proud of me, but of course, I will make sure that this marriage would only benefit myself.

"'wag mo akong ma-Teri Teri! 'yong tanong ko ang sagutin mo! Are you f*****g my husband?" she said exclaiming out of nowhere.

My brows raised feeling puzzled. This girl is crazy! She is really indeed a psycho!

Teri produced a beep sound, and then spoke monotonously, "According to the internet, 'wag mo akong ma-Terry-Terry is a famous dialouge line from a hit Philippine classic movie in 1994, starring Maricel Soriano as Terry, Zsa Zsa Padilla as Mellisa and Gabby Concepcion as Dave, Terry's husband." Teri said.

"Woah! That's cool! Teri, I like you!" Vlance said amazed.

"You're welcome, I like you too." Teri was programmed to be polite with people. If only I knew this would gonna happen I would have programmed her to be rude only with that psycho.

"Teri, print the MCC document file from my computer," I ordered.

"Take a sit," I told her without even saying please.

Bumaba siya sa hoverboard at naupo sa couch kung saan naroon ng sala set; I have it made for my visitors, for us to have much comfortable place to talk.

She leaned her back on the couch like a thug, and then she unetiquettely raised her legs resting her feet on the table in front of her. That woman doesn't even have at least

a pinch of decency in her. She's a girl who was born with an aristocratic blood, but her manners and etiquettes were poorly developed.

"Where's my coffee?" she said bossful. Siya lang sa lahat ng taong nakilala ko ang makapal ang mukha para sabihin 'yon. She couldn't even wait for me to offer her. She's unbelievable.

"I don't offer such to rude visitors." I answered calm but firm.

I took the printed documents from the printing machine, and then sit at the vacant couch in front her. She is petting her python that was crawling on her body. I frowned while shaking my head.

"P'wde bang ibaba mo 'yang paa mo? Lamesa ito, hindi patungan ng paa." I said with a tone of indignation.

"Aww, Anna, ang sungit naman ng lalakeng 'to! Lapain mo kaya," she said talking with her pet python.

Bumukas ang pinto at dumating ang dalawa kong mga abogado kasama si Judge Nick, our family friend, who was serving the government as the chief justice of the supreme court, while the two attourneys are the ones whom I only trust with everything when it comes to legal matters, they are the heads of the legal department of our family company; magagaling sila at kayang-kaya nilang paikutin ang lahat pagdating sa mga kontratang legal, they are also known as the top most competent lawyers in the country that is why I hired them, compensating with much more than what they could get as defending lawyers in the courts. I also have a lawfirm business and I hire only the best.

"Good morning, Duke and Miss Del Prado!" They all together greeted the both of us.

"Oh, you came right exactly as expected, please be sitted," sabi ko habang nakikipagkamayan sa kanila at saka pinaupo sa mga bakanteng sopa, hawak ang kanilang mga suitcase.

The rude psycho monster just stared at them not wanting to accept their hands for a shake hands.

"Miss Del Prado, I would like to introduce to you these three great honorable men—Atty. Carl, Atty. Erik, and Judge Nick—"

"Hell I care! P'wede ba? Tapusin na natin 'to."

I am now at the verge of lossing my patience with this psycho, she really is provoking me.

"Gusto kong ipalaman sa 'yo na ang mga papel na hawak ko ay—" Hindi ko pa natatapos ang sinasabi ko nang biglang agawin niya ang papel at pinirmahan.

"Hey! Are you out of your mind?"

"I don't like wasting my time with people like you. Pinapunta lang ako ni Vlad dito, and it got me no choice, besides, I hate my dad so I came here to give him another headache by signing whatever documents you would want me to sign. You're welcome!" She then gave back to me the documents after signing everything.

Now I get it. She is rebelling against her dad, huh? I grinned. Since I am now totally provoked, paninindigan ko na ang kasal, kung hindi siya kayang turuan ng leksan ng pamilya, then I will teach her a lesson. She provoked me, so she must regret it.

"Well then—" I paused, and then grinned at her.

"Attourneys, give her the contract." The attourneys smiled meaningfully, and then gave her the contracts.

She is now unmindfully signing the papers unaware of what might be the consequences that is waiting for her. This rebellious pyscho will soon learn her lessons. A stubborn child like her deserves to be punished.

Matapos niyang pirmahan ang lahat ng kontrata ay sunod akong pumirma at matapos ko ay sumunod naman ang tatlong abogado.

"Everything are now settled, congratulations for the both of you." Judges Nick said. They gave me a meaningful grin, I answered them back with my smirk, as if our grin can speak, kaming apat lamang ang nagkakaintindihan sa mga ngiting 'to.

Vlance, the psycho b***h stood up, and walk straight to her hoverboard and rode on it.

"Bad bye, Mr. Imperial!" she said while wearing her earphones on, and then she started hovering the hoverboard living my office.

My smirked got even wider. Bad bye? Yes, it is in deed a bad bye for her. "Bad bye, Mrs. Imperial." I said victoriously.

My family, especially my dad would be really proud of me again. Matutuwa ang buong pamilya ko dahil mabilis kong na-aksyonan ang kahilingan nila and this is something I would consider as another achievement. They just asked me last night to marry her, and now we are officially a husband and a wife.

Wala sa plano ang nangyari kanina. Ang gusto ko talagang mangyari ay mapag-usapan namin ang plano ang mga magulang namin, I will marry her because I know that this will be beneficial for the company and myself, but of course, gusto ko sanang ipaalam sa kanya ang plano para matulungan siyang matakasan ang kasal namin. I'm fine, with or without the marriage, but she is such a stubborn kid and he is proviking me, so it leads me no choice but to grab the opportunity, besides she needs to learn her lessons.
