Time out!Nice one Archer’s i know we can win this coming finals girls,thats all for todaylet’s see each other again this coming monday wala muna tayong practice this coming weekends ajured.”
Isa-isa naman kaming umalis nang mga team-mates ko. It’s 6:30pm and i need to go home before 7 because my Aunt Carmella texted me to join them in dinner together with the investors i don’t know bakit kaylangan pa akong nandun maybe some audience impact?
Pagkatapus kung mag ayos kinuha kuna yung sports bag ko.
“Apple tara kain muna tayo my treat what do you think?” Dianne said she even wiggle her eyebrows. She’s one of my teammates s***h bestfriend. She’s tall but I’m much taller than her. I’m 5’9 while she’s in 5’7. She have this thick eyebrows, pointed nose, pinkish lips, a heart shape face, she have also a straight hair a half american and half filipino.
“Pass i have a dinner date with my aunt may dumating kasing investors” i said while typing a reply to my aunt kanina pa pala siya nag tetext and call.
“Oh... sino kayang mga investors yan? Hmmm what do you think app?” She said while looking at me like i’ve done something bad.
I look at her with my blank face saying that i don’t know and i don’t wanna know because it’s not my business.
“Alam mo i have this feeling na kilala mo yung mga so called investors eh, feel ko lang” she said like she know what well gonna happen.
Well i dont know but i have this feeling na i fel’t nervous sa mga mangyayari damn i know this feeling and i hate what i fel’t right now.
“By the way i will gonna stay in our hide out tonight diko feel umuwi knowing that dad with his girlfriend are in the house right now” she said nang nasa tapat na kami nang mga sasakyan namin. Dianne mom is dead when she’s 15, okay naman sila nang daddy niya but when dianne turn into 18 dun na pinakilala ni Tito Dexter yung long time girlfriend niya and dianne hate it.
I just nod at her and open my car.I open the engine and start driving on the way home. Habang nag dadrive ako dinne’s word still running into my mind maraming what if’s dahil sa kakaisip ko hindi ko namalayan nandito na pala ako sa tapat nang bahay namin.
I ready mysef pagkalabas ko nang kotse. I maintain my blank face.
“Where are they Manang Elen?” I asked one of our maids pagpasok ko sa malaki naming sala.
“Nasa garden Ma’am Apple nandiyan na yung mga investor ikaw nalang yung hinihintay” she said and get my things. I just nod at her and lead my way into our garden and true to her words nandito na nga sila i saw my aunt talking to them nakatalikod kasi yung mga investors sa’kin kaya diko kita yung mga mukha nila they are six and one is a girl.
“Oh nandito na pala yung pamangkin ko. Apple come here” aunt said nang nakita niya ako. I started walking towards them at nandito na naman yung feeling na kinakabahan and i know this feeling siya lang ang nakakagawa nang ganito towards me but i remaind calm and no emotions.
“Gentleman meet my niece apple, apple meet our investors” tiningnan ko naman yung mga investors na sinasabi ni ante and ganin nalang ang gulat ko nang makita yung mga mukha nang mga taong ayaw ko nang makita. I just snapp out nang magsimulang ipakilala ni ante sila sa akin. I remained silent and no emotions looking at them.
“This is Apollo Arthur Archilab, Blade Brentard and Blaze Brentard they are twins, Cohen Sebastian and Lucifer Knox Wolf together with his fiancé Scarlet Jane Morton they are our investors darling they will gonna buy the lot we sell kasi tatayuan daw nila nang mall..” she said and mentioning me to seat beside her.
Of course tita i know who they are sino naman ang hindi makilala yung mga taong sumira sa buhay ko.
I’m still remain silent di paren nagsisink-in sa isip ko na nandito sila sa harapan ko the person who hurt me 6 years ago is here in front of me like nothing happened.
Like he didn't love me.
Is he?
Like he didn't hurt me.
Like he didn't fool me.
Like he didn't marry me.
Because tonight i can see through his eyes that i'm just a mere stranger to him.
Because i once inlove with a mafia lord and that is Lucifer Knox Wolf.
Itutuloy.....
