Sam's POV:
Pagkarating ko sa Mansion nila Ash ay agad kong hinanap si Justin. Dali-dali akong pumunta sa itaas without asking any of their maids.
"Justin?"- dumating ako sa kwarto niya at nakita kong nakahiga ito habang binabantayan ni Ash.
"Good thing you came.. I was worried about Justin's fever. He can't stand due to headache and he seems to be weak."-salaysay ni Ash at nilapitan ko ito para tignan ang temperature niya.
(39° degree celcius!)
"Dang, it's too high for a kid.. Let me check something in my pocket."-sambit ko at naghanap ng pwedeng mapainom na gamot kay Justin.
"Please turn off the Air Condition while I'm looking for an available drug for fever."-utos ko at sinunod nya.
I took a needle and told Ash to carry Justin. Agad din niya itong binitbit at saka ko naman itinusok ang needle sa paa ni Justin. Napa-react si Justin sa naramdamang sakit kaya nagising ito.
"Justin, endure the pain. We're helping you to recover."-payo ni Ash at kumalma naman si Justin. After a few minutes, pinaupo siya ni Ash at binigyan ko siya ng Paracetamol para maisubo niya kay Justin.
"Has Justin eaten breakfast already?"-tanong ko.
"Not yet. I also made a soup for him. But he refused to eat. I think he wants to see you."-kwento niya at napatingin ako sa batang nagpapahinga.
"Is that so? Then let me take care of him."-boluntaryo ko at sumang-ayon din siya.
"Good idea.. But I have to go. I am needed to our company so I'll leave the rest up to you."-bilin niya at ngumiti naman ako.
"No problem.."-sagot ko at agad na siyang umalis. Napaupo ako sa tabi ni Justin at pinunasan ang noo niya gamit ang bimpong nakalagay sa maliit na palanggana.
It took 1 hour to make Justin feel good again. Bumaba na rin ang temperature niya into 38° degree celcius.
"Get up now, Justin.. You need to eat your breakfast. Your Dad has made this for you."-yaya ko at napangiti siya nang makita niya ko. He suddenly hugged me straight after getting up. How I miss this kid.
"It's good to see you recovering from your leg injury. How are you for the past days, Justin?"-pangungumusta ko at bigla siyang sumimangot. He took his Tablet and wrote something to say before showing it to me.
"[Mom, please stay with us.]" Bigla akong natulala nang mabasa yun. Eh kasi hindi pwede. I'm not even related to him. I'm just his temporary doctor.
"Even if I want, I can't.. We're not family-related, Justin."- sagot ko at kitang-kita ko ang pagkalungkot niya.
"[Be my Mom, then!]" Biglang namilog ang mga mata ko sa kanya. I don't think I have guts to answer his words.
"Eat your breakfast before it's too cold."-alok ko at sinubuan siya ng mainit na sabaw. I smiled when he chewed his food slowly. He's really are a good boy.

Ash's POV:
Nagsimula na ang meeting namin at napagdesisyunan nilang hatiin ang bussiness namin into 4 category. Oil Industry, Farm Industry, Car Bussiness, and start a Model Magazines Bussiness.
"Mr. Smith, isn't this too risky? We will attract more enemies and have a lot of competitions. When are we going to start?"-opinyon ni President Gab.
"My Dad's coming next week. So I'm leaving this to him. He can handle this all."-sagot ko.
"That's a good news! Should we create a Welcoming Party for Mr. Hachingson's arrival!"-saad ni President Victorio at sumang-ayon ang sampu sa kanila.
"Fine, we can invite all of our costumers, stuffs, and families. The venue will happen in our Pavilion Place. It should be the best place to celebrate a party. "-sambit ko at sumang-ayon rin silang lahat.

Natapos na ang meeting ko kaya sinabihan ko si Secretary Franky about sa news.
Bigla siyang napatalon sa tuwa at dali-daling pinost ito sa buong Building.
"Sir, when is the party going to happen na?"-sabik na tanong niya.
"Next week.."-matipid kong sagot at pumunta na sa Parking area para umuwi. Maraming taong dumayo sa post-card sa loob para lang makasali. Agad akong humarurot sa daan bago pa man gumabi. I suddenly thought of Justin with Doc Sam. They're both so closed to each other. I'm starting to trust her more than anyone from our family members.
Matapos ang isang oras ay dumating nako. Agad akong pinagbuksan ng Gate nung Security Guard. I left my car outside the compound at dali-daling pumunta sa kwarto ni Justin. After a few seconds, I suddenly stopped when I saw Doc Sam sleeping peacefully besides Justin. Napatitig nalang ako sa kanilang dalawa at pinagmasdan ang tulog nila. Damn, they're both adorable while sleeping.
Di ko tuloy namalayang kinuhanan ko na pala sila ng litrato.
"Rich Guy?"-natigilan ako nang biglang magising si Sam. I hide my phone at lumapit para mahawakan ang noo ni Justin.
"Ahh, he's fine now.."-natutuwa niyang sabi.
"So, it's turning out to be mid-night. Would you like to sleep here with him?"-alok ko at napatingin siya sa orasan.
"Jusko! Kailangan ko na palang umuwi! It's 10:56 pm already!"-taranta niyang sabi at napabangon mula sa kama.
"But how about Justin? He might get upset once he doesn't see you tomorrow in his side."
"Don't worry, babalik pa naman ako bukas ng maaga!"-sabi niya at dinampot ang pocket bago umalis.
"Wait for me.. Let me drive you home to ensure you're safe."-habol ko at kinuha ang susi ng sasakyan para maihatid siya sa bahay nila.
"Is it okay with you? I'm sure you're extremely tired from work. I might be bothering you."-she said showing concern but I opened the door of the car for her.
"You took care of my son so It's now my turn to take care of you. So get inside."-tanging nasabi ko at bigla siyang napayuko bago pumasok. Napangiti nalang ako while turning around to sit in the Driver's seat.
"Thanks, Rich guy."-rinig kong bulong niya at pinatakbo ko na ang sasakyan.
"You're always welcome, lady."
