My Possessive Boss: Xavier Cartel

CHAPTER 2

Chapter 2

Ashleigh P.O.V.

-Time skip-

Nakauwi na ako sa aming bahay ngunit hindi pa din Mawala sa isip ko ang nangyari kanina

Bakit kailangan nya pa akong halikan ,how dare him kiss me without my permission…though his lips is so soft nothing changed—

d*mn what am I thinking

hindi dapat ako nag iisip ng ganto

napahawak ako sa aking labi,pakiramdan ko hanggang ngayon nakadikit pa din ang labi nya sa akin

marahas kong ipinilig ang aking ulo, ano ba Ashleigh umayos ka

“MOWMY!!”

Nabalik ako sa realidad ng makarinig ako ng sigaw

“Chase why on Earth are you shouting?”I said sa medyo pagalit,katabi ko lang kasi ito kaya medyo masakit sa tenga ang pagsigaw nya

“Because mowmy I was cawling you ten times and you didn’t even listen”he pouted and then proceeded on playing with his hands

Awe how could this child be this cute

“I’m sorry chase mommy is just thinking”I replied patting his head

“Ohh ok mowmy,ahmm I’m going to bed now mowmy, can you uhm…..whats that word hmppp mowmy help ”he said clearly annoyed I just laugh at him kaya naman lalong humaba ang pagnguso nito

“Chase this is how it goes ‘Mommy can you tuck me in?’ got it??”I said calmly

“Yes mowmy,So can you tuck me in pleaseee?”he said with his secret weapon

Puppy eyes

Chase is a very smart kid,mana sa kanyang ama pero may mga salitang nahihirapan syang bigkasin o kaya naman nalilimutan nya

I smiled and carried him to his bed room

I sang his favorite lullaby until he sleep

“Good night Baby” I kissed his forehead at lumabas na sa kanyang kwarto

Pumunta ako sa kusina upang kumuha ng tubig

I sat on the chair by the counter

“Hey Sam are you ok?”I looked up to see Khalix walking toward me

“Uhm yeah I guess” I said trying to sound ok so he wont ask anymore,but I highly doubt that

“Tell me what’s the matter” ayan na nga.haystt wala talaga akong maitago dito sa pinsan kong `to

“I’m ready to listen couz’”he continued and sat beside me,how I love this cousin of mine.he is always there ready to bring me up when I am on the verge of falling straight to the ground

Lagi nya akong dinadamayan at pinapagaan ang loob

“Xavier”I replied

“What about him?”he asked clearly confused with ahint of anger in his tone

Nung una pa lang ayw na talaga ni Khal kay Xavier para sakin,but dahil daw dun ako Masaya walana syang magagawa..pero kahit kontra sa pagpayag ko sa arrange marriage ,ni minsan hindi nya ako iniwan,lagi syang nandyan lalo na nung panahon sinasaktan ako ni Xavier physically and emotionally.

“He’s my boss”I breathe Naramdaman kong napatigil sya sa kanyang pwesto ,parang alam ko na patutunguhan nito, paaalisin nya ako sa trabaho,which is gusto ko din gawin,pero pag umalis ako dun sigurado akong kukunin ako ni khal sa kompanya nila.and mastado ng madami ang naitulong ni Khal kaya nahihiya na ako.

“What?”he yelled and stand abruptly causing the chair to create loud noise

“shhh be quiet Chase is asleep”I said lowly

“So tell me what happened?”he said and sat back down

“Wala nman nangyari”I said trying to hide my face,but knowing my cousin hindi nya ako titigilan

“I know you couz,you are not your usual self , I’m sure something happened”he said brushing my hair with his finger

Why do I have such a sweet cousin

“Uhm he uhmm kissed me” I told him blushing yeah hinanda ko na ang aking tenga sa pangmalakasang sigaw ng aking pinsan in

“What the f!! HE WHAT!!??” Iba na ang pagiging oa ng aking pinsan haysttt

“I said be quiet”I said because he was yelling and he might wake Chase up

“How Can I be quiet, that assh*le just kissed you huh” He’s clearly angry, oww enough na ang pagbibiro wahhh kelangan ko muna pakalmahin ang aking namumla sag alit na pinsan

“hey Khal, it’s ok hindi ko na hahayaan na maulit yon pramis” itinaas ko pa ang kanan kong kamay na parang nanunumpa.

Then I proceeded on calming my OA cousin

And after 12345678 years kumalma na din sya, huhu paki paalaala sakin na wag na uli magkwento ditto.. apaka oa eh

“Hey couz,keep your distance with him…please I don’t want you to suffer again..”awe back to my caring cousin again

“Yeah I’ll never forget that” I replied

“promise me” he said holding my face in his hand and making me look at him

“Yeah I promise” I said at sinalubong ang tingin nya upang maniwala sa sinasabi ko

“pinky promise?” he said sticking out his pinky finger

I giggled he’s so childish but he`s cute, oh readers mine nyo na single pa `to

“pinky promise” I said also sticking my pinky finger and intertwining it with his

“Good..but what about Chase?” that made me think,what if hindi tanggapin ni Xavoier na may anak sya sa akin, paano kung tulad ko ay saktan din ni Xavier si Chase haystttt

“It’s better if he will not know about Chase cause I don’t want him to reject Chase”

“Ok if that’s your decision I’ll support you .. But you Can’t keep that hidden forever… time will come that you need to tell him the truth” he sighed

I am so glad I have my cousin with me he’s always right thieir to support my descision

“I know I’ll tell him when I’m ready” I said not knowing what to do

“Couz you should sleep now, you have work tomorrow remember, napakatagal mo pa naman magising, tapos nagagalit pag ginigising HAHAHAHA” he said trying to lighten up my mood

I giggled

“Oww yeah good night couz” I said standing from the chair

“Good night ash sleep well” He kissed my forehead then headed to his room

I went to my room and tuck myself in

I just hope Xavier won’t find out about chase

And with that I fell into a dreamless sleep.

-KINABUKASAN-

Dali dali ako ngayong nagmamaneho papuntang office, dahil late na ako sa trabaho at siguradong malalagot ako nito, late na kasi ako nagising dahil di ako makatulog kagabi kakaisip sa nangyari kahapon

Haystt, buhay nga naman parang layp

Nagmakarating ako sa tapat ng X.C. CORPORATION agad akong humanap ng mapaparkingan ng aking kotse.

Nang makahanap at makapagpark na ay agad ang nagdali dali papasok sa opisina

“Good morning ma’am” pagbati sa akin ni manong guard, ngumiti na lamang ako sa kanya

Nginitian ko na lang din si Faye na nakasalubong ko, mabuti at hindi na nito ako kinausap at ngumiti na lang din, siguro alam nya na late ako at paniguradong lagot kay sa boss kong mas malamig pa sa yelo. Halos madapa na ako dahil sa pagmamadali at halos masira ko na din ako pindutan sa elevator dahil sa malakas kong pagpindot dito

“You’re ten minutes late”

‘lohh bilang na bilang talaga

‘Kung di mo kaya ako hinalikan makakatulog ako ng maayos edi sana hindi ako nalate’

Syempre sa isip ko lang yan, dapat babaan ko ang pride ko. Ayaw ko pa mawalan ng trabaho, kelangan behave muna selp babaan natin ang pride dahil alam kong mas mataas pa sa eiffel tower ang pride nitong boss ko.

“I’m sorry sir this won’t happen again” aniko at tumungo so I wont meet his burning gaze, grabe kakatunaw naman kasi yung titig nya. Parang anumang oras lalapain ako eh

“Do your work now” I mentally shivered from the coldness of his voice.

Anyare bad mood ata, ano pa nga bang bago lagi naman bad mood `tong lalaking to

Pinagsawalang bahalako nalng yon at pumunta na sa desk ko para magsimula ng magtrabaho

As I was working someone knocked on the door

I wonder who is it.

Hmmm maybe one of his flings

Parang may kumirot sa puso ko ng isipin kong isa ito sa mga flings nya, hindi ko alam kung bakit pero parang ang sakit isipin na may babaeng bibisita sa aking dating asawa habang nandito ako kasama nya sa trabaho.

Haystttt dapat talaga itigil ko na ang pag iisip ng ganto, naka move on kana Ash kaya tama na.

“Come in” Xavier said

“Hey dude how’s life” the new comer said upon entering

“Shut it Alex” he replied no bothering to look at Alex , pakabastos na nilalang hayyst ano pa bang bago.

The new comer, That’s Alexander Moretti Xavier’s childhood best friend

I mentally slapped myself, dahil napagkamalan kong isa sa mga flings ni Xavier si Alex

Ayan overthink pa Ash… haysttt

Pinagsawalang bahala ko na lang sina Alex at itinuon na lamang ang aking atensyonsaakingtrabaho

While cheching the paperwork a shadow came into the view di pa man ako nakakaangat ng tingin may pumisi sa aking pisngi

*Ouch masakit yon ah

Hinampas ko ang kanyang kamay

“That hurts Alex” I half yelled, pero parang wala syang narinig at talagang hinawakan pa ang magkabila kong pisngi at pinakatitigan ako

“Ash is that really you?” he asked blinking his eyes like It is impossible for me to appear right here

Sinampal ko sya ng pagkalakas lakas para naman matauhan sya, para kaya syang tanga

“Yeah it’s me “I replied massaging my cheeks

Parang nabalik naman sya sa realidad at hinawakan ang kanyang pisngi at minasahe ito, nasobrahan ata ang lakas ng sampal ko

Napangiwi sya at tumingin sa akin ng masama “Why would you do that Ash ang sakit para akong binato sa muka ng isang bowling ball” reklamo nya, I just smiled innocently sa kanya

“Ow it still hurts. Btw Ash. It’s been years, so are you two together again?” he asked looking at Xavier and back to me accusingly

“Nahh ah, I’m just his secretary and will stay as his secretary nothing more” sagot ko at bumalik na sa aking ginagawa

hHow could he think like that *sigh

“Man that I’m sure that hurts” Alexander said while tapping Xavier’s shoulder with a playful smirk on his face

“F*ck you” he replied looking pissed hmm.. I wonder why

“aww did I hit a nerve Xavy?” Alex said while pouting

I giggled at his nickname for Xavier

He looks funny

“Dude just leave it” Xavier looks really pissed this time… uh oh right now I’m wishing Alexander the best of luck, ako na bahala s pakape at sopas

“Very well “Alex said while laughing

Tumingin uli sa akin si Alex

“It’s nice to see you again Ash” he said while giving me a hug

I hugged him back

“Tsk tsk.. Ms. Accardi oras ng trabah ongayon so instead of flirting just do your work” Xavier said in a cold tone

Adik yata to

“pfftt you’ve got a possessive Boss here” Alex whispered at me

“Whatever Alex just go I have some work to do”I replied

“Okay okay I’m leaving” he said putting his hands up and looking

behind me?? Huh ehh

I look back and there I saw Xavier glaring at us

What is his problems

Masyado akong natulala dahil sa pag-iisip kung ano nanaman ang ipinuputok ng butsi ni Xavier at hindi ko namalayan ang mabilis na paggalaw ni Alex

Hinalikan nya ako ng mabilis sa gilid ng aking labi at mas mabilis pa kay flash na nagtatakbo paalis ng opisina ni Xavier

Ako naman ay di makagalaw dahil sa gulat sa nangyari

Nabalik ako sa realidad ng marig ang sunod sunod na pagmumura ni Xavier kasunod ng malakas na ingay dulot ng kanyang pagsuntok sa pader ng kanyang opisina

“I am so gonna kill him” saad nya na may diin sa bawat pagbigkas ng mga salita.

He gritted his teeth at sakia padabog na lumabas ng opisina, masyadong malakas ang pagkakasara ni Xavier sa pinto kaya naman lumikha ito ng malakas na kalabog na nagpatalon sa akin sa gulat.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Days goes by he is always cold and giving me tall piles of paper work it’s exausting

Today is Sunday Khal and I are taking chase to the park because we’re having a picnic

Nilatag ko na ang blanket para sa aming picnic

Pagkatapos inihanda ko naman ang mga pagkain namin samantala si Chase naman, hayst nagbabasa ng libro sa may bench

Ilang beses ko na itong sinabihan na makipaglaro sa ibang bata pero hindi ko makumbinsi

Nagmana talaga to sa daddy nya napakacold pagdating sa ibang tao, sa amin lang ni Khal at sa mga grandparents nya sya hindi cold

“Hey Couz… you ok??”tanong ni Khal na nasa tabi ko na pala

“uhmm yeah I’m fine” sagot ko at pinagmasdan si Chase na patuloy pa din sa pagbabasa

“How’s work?? Di ka naman ba binubully ni Xavier?” He asked.. napakaswerte ko talaga sa pinsan kong `to

Feel ko tuloy meron na akong older brother

Only child kasi ako kaya mas close ako sa pinsan ko, although nagiisa lang naman syang pinsan ko

“Hindi naman.. and I wouldn’t let him.you worry to much” I said and smiled at him

“Hindi ko mapigilan mag alala.. you see Ash, nakababatang kapatid ang turing ko sayo and di ako kampante na nakakasama mo sa isang opisina ang taong nanakit sayo” he sighed aand started to play with my hair

“Don’t worry.. I will not let myself be in pain again because of him trust me in this one” I said para hindi na sya mag alala, masyado na syang madaming problema sa sarili nyang kompanya at ayoko na dumagdag pa sa isipin nya

Tumingin muli akokung saan nagbabasa si Chase at nakita itong tumatakbo sa direksyon namin

“Mowmy can tito Khal and I play on the slide?” Chase asked with puppy his famous eyes

I sighed “Ok just be carefull. Khal pakibantayan nalang si Chase, alam mo naman yan masyadong makulitttt” I said while pinching Chase’s cheeks

Khal nodded yes

“Ouch mommy” reklamo ni Chase at hinawakan ang kanyang pisngi

I just chuckled as they went to the slide

I smiled while seeing them play together, para silang mag ama

Ano kayang lagay naming kung tanggap ako ni Xavier, siguro ganyan din kasaya si Chase at makikipag laro sa kanya. Kaso parang ang impossible naman kasi ayaw sakin ni Xavier at baka hindi nya tanggapin si Chase. Natatakot akong makitang umiiyak si Chase dahil hindi sya tanggap ng daddy nya

“Hi” someone said from behind causing me to jumped in fright

“Alex you scared the sh*t out of me” I breathe at hinampas sya sa balikat para naman makaganti at sinundan pa ng isang sampal

“ouch Ash, para saan naman yan. Tuwing nakikita mo ako lagi mo na lang akong sinasampal, masakit kaya” reklamo nya at hinlot hilot ang kanyang namumulang pisingi

“Aba’t nagtanong ka pa, suntukin kaya kita. Kala mo ba nakalimutan ko na yung paghalik mo sakin” sigaw ko sa kanya

“I’m sorry I’m just trying to tease Xavier and nagantihan na ako ni Xavier. Bagay nga kayo, pareho kayong mapanakit” reklamo nya at tinuro ang mata nya

Ngayon ko lang napansin na nakasalamin pala sya. Tinagtag ko ang salamin nya at nagpigil ng tawa ng Makita ang mangitin ngitin nyang mata.

“Anyare? Bakit may black eye ka?’ pagtatanong ko habang nagpipigil pa din ng pagtawa

I can’t him know about Chase, sigurado akong sasabihin nya agad kay Xavier na may anak ako, so I lied

“Yes I am al---” my words were cut off when I feel someone tugging the hem of my shirt

“mowmy aym tired, can we go home *yawn “

Oh Chase ..uhm yes we’ll go home now ok

“You have a son?” Alex is shocked

“Yes” I sighed what’sthe point of lying

“So who’s the father” he asked eyeing me suspiciously

“I uhm.. the father is----” then again my words we’re cut

this time by Khal

“Me.. I am the father of Chase” Khal said

Alex eyed Khal for a moment

“And who are you,may I ask?”

“I’m Khalix Monreal the father of Chase” he said sternly

“But mowmy I thought my fa----” I covered Chase’s Mouth

“We’re going Home now” I said

“Khal,letsgo”I said

He nodded and head to the car

“uhm Alex it is nice to see you here, I’m sorry but we he to head home my son is tired” I said looking back at Alex

“Oww it’s ok Ash really… Keep safe” he said and smiled

“thanks” and I followed Khal

Khal is driving the car while Chase is at the backseat sleeping

“Hey Khal, Thank you for saving may *ss back there” I ssaid

I’m really thankful that Khal is with me

He chuckled

“Anything for you cuoz, Btw who’s that guy?” heasked.. I forgot he doesn’t know Alex

“He’s Alex, Xavier’s childhood best friend” I said nearly a whisper

“Oh, do you think he will tell That b*stard”

“Nah ah, I don’t think so, because I am positive he will” I said clearly worried
