Miguel Ice's P.O.V
"Maaaa!" I called.
"Wait a minute. Here I am! Don't be hurry! You have long hours still. Besides, your going to take a bus going there." mom answered and was also confused. "This is my first job interview,mom. I don't want to be late, and one more thing, I want to have a job so you don't have to work in the market. I will be the one who will, provides for both of us," I explained to my mom. "My son, don't put pressure on yourself. If a job is for you, it will be for you." she rubbed my face and hair."I'm fine; I'm not a baby anymore, mom," I replied to him.
"This is for lunch; this is your snack. If you're going to spend the night there, this is extra money for dinner; don't go hungry, huh? Call me if it's not enough and you need something." "Yeah, I know, mom. You told me this seven times?, so don't worry," I replied to mom. "And one more thing, don't worry too much about what I'll call every hour; rest here at home while I'm gone." I said to her. I left the house with a smile on my lips. Mom is beautiful with her smile today. I will do everything to make it up to her, and I will be the one to provide for both of us. I will give the best life to him. My mother and i are so excited for my first Job.I have arrived here at the mall where I will apply.
"Interview for salesman supervisor," I said to the front desk. "I am sorry, sir. Did you not receive our text message that we canceled your appointment with Ms. Jen? We moved it to tomorrow." The front desk answered. "Ah, is that so? I haven't received anything; is it really not possible today? Even if I wait until later, I won't be able to come back if it's tomorrow." I begged the receptionist. "I am sorry, but I try my best to message Ms. Jhen," he answered.I just waited for almost an hour for this interview.
I texted my mom, saying that there's so many applicants, so I can't go home yet because it's not my turn yet.I don't want to tell the truth and have her worry about me.A woman rushes in, followed by another woman. "That can be moved to tomorrow," shouted the caught woman."If we inform late, it's our fault; we disturbed the person, and then we'll cancel it. It's quick, and we'll get back there." He calmed down his companion. "Tsk," he answered flatly. "We are the ones who bother the person." I still see when she is talking to the other person. "Whatever. I'm going to rest in the room first. You'll take care of it there," said a straight woman. "Let him go inside the office. I'll just retouch first," she said hurriedly. "Sir, come with me." The receptionist imitated me. I sat in the seat she told me. She came and interviewed me.She asked me for patience, and she oriented me on the things to do and my jobs. I didn't say anything; I just nodded. "Start tomorrow if possible?" she asked me again. "Hmm, I'm sorry. Can it be done the next day? I still need to find a house for my mother, and I can live near here. It's difficult for us to travel from here to there, and I can't live far away from her either.," I said nicely. "We have three staff houses on the rooftop; you can use one room. It's clean there; you can bring your mom," she answered.I'm so happy to hear this, but it's embarrassing. I didn't want to abuse them, so I wanted to reject her when she spoke again."Don't worry, it's free, and if you're worried about your mom, she can cook food for the staff and clean the entire building. You won't be assigned here at the mall if not at the building boutique. It's a two-story house. The staff house is upstairs; don't refuse because there will be people in the whole building. You can go now and pick up your mom; we'll see you tomorrow. My staff called you for the address. Thank you and sorry again." She stood up and walked again. I stood up and bowed in respect to her. I went out and thanked the receptionist. I am Ice,Yes, Mama's boy.Mom is the only one I have. She is the only one who raised me. Even though we moved from house to house, mom never lost her job. She is very strategic; she knows almost all jobs, whether it's a man's job or a woman's job. She also built our house. Because we have never lived in a rock-hard house, our house is only made of wood and planks. It's clean and quiet, so I can study quietly, and we can both relax. I don't want everything to change with Mama and me, so no matter where I am, Mama should be there too. I texted Mom that I'm on my way home.But unexpectedly, I saw a person who I know is the reason why we moved away and moved from house to house.I was having second thoughts about whether I should continue with all my plans for Mama and me in this place.There are probably many other jobs that can be done for me that are far from this place. But I told mom that I was accepted. Shall I tell her that he is here? I know she will be worried. She will also wonder why I won't accept it. I am sure of that."You have a lot of time right now," Raven said as she entered my condo.Yes, I was living alone when I left our mansion house, and then I was just like a lost soul. No one notices; no one talks. No one wants to see or even breathe me; maybe they don't want to.I didn't come home when Meriam had a welcome party. Apart from the amount of work I teach the new visor, I'm also too lazy to see her, and I'm jealous of how Mom looks at her and admires her."Someone is already doing my work," I answered simply."Why don't you go home to your mansion? Don't you miss them?" she asked one after another."They didn't remember me; why should I remember them?" I answered and just took my phone and checked for updates.The day passed, and we just hung out here in my condo."Hey, Bobitaaa!" Raven shouted, throwing a pillow at me."Whaaaat?" I shouted irritatedly."You're smiling while texting on your phone. Who's talking? Do you have a boyfriend?" she shouted at me while coming closer to me.To my sur
"Mom, who is he?" I asked him.I was lying in the living room when suddenly mom came with a man."I thought you were just going to buy food tonight and tomorrow morning?" I asked mom again.Neither of them spoke.As for mom, I couldn't read her reaction as she was just looking at me."Ma what?" I just felt the man hug me, and mom started crying.What the fuck!Why is Mama crying?Why did Mom react like that?I let go of the man's embrace and held mom."What's going on? Can you explain?" I asked mom while taking water from the table and giving it to her."Sit down first and calm down, Mama," I told her.There was silence for a moment, and Mama spoke again."He's your father," Mama said casually."I know, Ma, but why is he here?" I asked in a loud voice."Son, calm down first. I'll explain," Mom told me."Your mom is sick and she needs a long treatment. I have to send her to the U.S. so that her treatment can be completed. In exchange for that, you have to work with me. A lot of money w
Miguel's P.O.V"You are beautiful," I said in my mind while facing her."Huh?" said the person in front of me."H-huh? Nothing. I said it's a beautiful day today; it doesn't seem like it's going to rain," I said while panicking.I said it in front of her; it was embarrassing.It's been two weeks since I started working here at his boutique as a sales supervisor. I am the only one who visits, lists, and buys from suppliers. My job also includes double-checking materials and stock inventory. She has already introduced me to everything about me, and I only need to complete a few papers.She also personally trained me in what I needed. She is kind, soft-spoken, and, most of all, very beautiful. From her complexion, you can tell she is from a rich family. She acts and speaks very socially, but only simple things make herhappy. Just like my simple jokes to her. Corny to others but sells too much to her."Since I worked with you, you have not given me a welcome party. Now is a good time to p
"Mom, update me always, please." I'm begging Mom.I won't take Mama anymore because that's one of my father's conditions. I don't want to, but I have to do it.Mama and I went to the hospital, where she checked up, and we also got a second opinion from others, but they only said the same thing. I also thought about everything for a few days, even my work, which I have neglected. I can give up everything except Mama. I also see a few small changes in mom's movements, so I decided to do what would be good for her."Sir, we will take care of Ma'am; Mr. Martin is waiting for you at his house." I just looked at her badly and hugged Mama tightly.We stayed in that position for ten minutes. I don't see Mama crying, so she told me to be a man; no man cries. We both laughed and told each other that we would be together again after all the problems.Speaking of my current job, I knew it was inappropriate to say goodbye via text message; I did it because I couldn't face him. Make him think the b
"Your son is your inheritance," said a board to Daddy."He is smart and young. I hope he surpasses how I was when I was young," said Daddy.Since I started training here, nothing else has been done but left-and-right comparison and expectation. I never had my own image because they just expected me to be as good as Dad or even better.Well, that's life.I take care of everything early. I'm not late because Mama told me to. I follow all of Mama's instructions because Mama knows what Daddy likes and doesn't like.Mom used to be Dad's secretary. Daddy was already married and had a child when he and Mama met. It is said that Mama has no bad intentions; she just wants Dad's support during times when he can no longer bear what he is going through. Even though Mama didn't say what she was going through, she chose to empathize rather than investigate things."Sir Miguel, excuse me," said my secretary.I have my own secretary, I have my own office, and I also have my basic salary four times hi
He was noisy, had many cameras, and focused on everyone who got out of the car and entered the venue.This is so insane. GoshWe attend big gatherings of big people all over the world. They have nothing else to do but brag about what they have achieved in life and get rich."Dad, can I go early after the program?" I asked Daddy."Give this whole night to your father, Aira; don't scold yourself," Mommy answered grumpily.I just dreamed.I never really had a voice in this family. Everything I say is against them. I just kept quiet and sat at the table assigned to our family.Dad is next to my sister, then me, then Meriam. On the other side of dad are Kuya and Ken, and mom is opposite Daddy. From afar, you can see the smiles of my whole family. We look like a like a happy and content family. A family figure is everyone's dream."Compare!" a man says when he sees my dad."Nice to see you here. Where's Kumare?" My dad responded to this man.They just talked about business and went away so

He scratched about the Villanuevas,Villanuevas, and the person he loved other than his mothermother and the girl he saw the night before werewere really the same..He is undercover duringduring the investigation.

I was surprised when he texted and wanted to meet."Why do you want to talk to us here?" I asked him."To be quiet," he answered simply."Maybe it's quiet at the bar," I told him sarcastically."You're still grumpy," he said.I just looked at him and sat in front of him.I poured wine into the glass in front of me."I thought you didn't care?" he asked.I didn't answer him and just sipped the wine I poured."So, you're rich?" he asked again."What now? Is that enough reason for you to leave me?" I asked boldly.I also have the strength to tell him because I've had enough wine."Why didn't you tell me? Do I really not know you, or am I just pretending to know you?" he asked sharply.He did not answer my question."Why you? You pretended to be poor to be accepted at my boutique for what?" I answered his question."Who said I'm rich?" he answered with raised eyebrows.Why are we two arguing? Why is it that if we talk, nothing comes together? Why is the answer to every question we ask eac
