Gazing outside of the window from my room, I am wishing that what Kalvis did in his office would be gone from my head..The week almost ended but I am still stuck with the moment he kissed me. He is really doing everything that will possibly make me stay away from his dad. I didn't attend to my duties for four days after Kalvis' lips landed on mine. I reasoned out to his dad that I am traumatised because of the cockroach that bumped into me. After several days, I don't have any other choice but to go to work even though I am not ready to see Kalvis' face again. Because of that kiss, I felt my body becoming weak when I heard Kalvis' voice inside my head. My body was reacting unusually if my left brain recalled his face during the time he kissed me. Even though I am having a hard time stepping inside the giant building, I still manage to smile back at the people who greeted me while their lips are smiling. “Baby, finally, you are here. I missed you so much,” Marcov said when I came
After 17 hours and 36 minutes of flight the plane landed safely on top of the shiny concrete field. “Ladies and gentlemen, we have just landed at Ninoy Aquino International Airport. Philippine Airlines welcomes you to Manila for your safety, please remain seated with your seat belt fastened until the fasten seat belt sign has been switched off. Please refrain from removing any hand carry items from the overhead bins until the aircraft has come to a full stop and the cabin door has been opened for you to deplane on behalf of the Philippine Airlines flight deck and cabin crew. We would like to thank you for flying with us. It was a pleasure to have you on board. We hope to see you again soon in one of your future flights once again from Asia's sunniest and the heart of the Filipino. Maraming salamat po and Mabuhay!”The man beside me stood up as if he's not with anyone. He took his luggage and then he went out of the plane. I took my own luggage and followed him. My shoulders rested a
I waited half of a minute before he get back to bed. I sighed. Without a choice I put back my luggage where I took it from. I opened the cabinet and saw that there are extra bed sheets in it. I took out a thick bed sheet and a pillow. I opened the bedsheet and positioned it at the vacant part of the floor. I put the pillow on where I'm going to lay my head on. I lay down and turned my phone on. I tried to connect on a free wifi. I received an email so suddenly I checked it. I saw a picture of Marcov heading to the airport. All that happened to his life was told by his emails. I have a smile on my face and never let negativity steal it from me. “Is that daddy, mommy? Did he miss you so much?”I let out a sigh to vanish the annoyance he is bringing. “Kalvis, please do not do this. I am trying to get rid of negativity, okay? If you cannot help me to absorb positive vibes, just do not talk!”“Are you not informed that the Philippines is also a democratic country? It means that I am
After annoying me, he took a shower so I have to wait more than an hour for my turn. My eyes widened when I saw him walking out of the bathroom half naked. He only had a tower around his waist and every moment he made a step, his third but shirt leg also moved as if it's stepping. “Don't stare at me that way, mommy. My body might melt,” he said. I looked at his face and I caught him smiling like someone who feels high because of cannabis. “Excuse me, Kalvis. You're blocking my way.”“Oh, mommy, I thought that you like it?”He move his chests and it caught my eyes. I just noticed it now that he has a tattoo on his right chest. It's a sword that has ang angel wings.“Kalvis…” I have to compose myself when I realise why I was here. I am here to represent Marcov. As his secretary all I need to do is to never give his son the attention he's seeking. “What, mommy?”“If you want to keep your balls safe, then do not come near me.” I took a few steps before I looked back at him. “By the
I fixed my things inside the luggage. Ester called and said that our flight is near.We checked out of the hotel, and we are now riding in a taxi to the airport.I sighed when I went out because of the hot weather in the Philippines. My head totally gets the point of why foreigners love to go here for beaches because of the almost unending summer season here. I never looked at Kalvis after I heard an extreme abhor of his heart feeling towards me through his tongue. He accused me of stealing his dad away, even though I was not doing it. Marcov isn't letting their relationship be ruined; instead, he is doing everything to save it. The real problem here is Kalvis; he just can't accept it.“Miss Sterling, are you alright? Don't you want to hear stories about him?" Esther inquired, looking at the man in front of us.“I am enjoying our flight, Ester. Save your stories when we arrive at our destination.”“As you said, miss.”I smiled without showing my teeth, and I bowed a little.I cast my
-Marcov-We are now facing each other. I was sitting next to my uncle while the family of whom he had credit was in front of us. We had dinner with them as we planned to discuss the marriage of Kalvis to their daughter.“I am really excited about this, Emberson,” Matthias said, the father of the woman who will be married to Kalvis.“Well, me too. This union will definitely make us one. The future of both our families is in good hands now. We won't be worrying about the separation of the powers we have in the field of business.”They all faked laughs. I looked at the woman; she has fair-pale skin, and she has round honey eyes. I can feel that she's a typical fresh graduate from a famous university that only has makeup set inside her bag.“Marcov, why don't you tell them about Kalvis?"I looked at Uncle Emberson. I cleared my throat before staring at the young woman, who was pushing her breasts out. I don't know what she's trying to prove, but she is making an effort to amaze everyone a
I heard roosters waking up all the people at the orphanage. I woke up with a great feeling. So it's the feeling of waking up here in the Philippines. It's literally amazing.I opened the window and saw some of the kids cleaning the surroundings. Some of them are watering the plants, and others are sweeping the ground.I see well-disciplined children, and it made me smile like my heart was already caught by this place.“Veronica, we are not here to sleep like oil. It's not a great idea to lay down above the bed while the sun wakes up before you. More than that, we are here, not as guests but as helping hands and support individuals this week for the orphans.”I rolled my eyes. “I'm already awake, Kalvis.” I sighed deeply. It's early in the morning, and I am offended because of the way he said the word “orphans.” It seemed he was trying to imply that the children have nowhere to go and no hope to see because they have no parents looking for them.“That's great, then! Take a bath and hel
I let the children do the activity I made them do. In order to give them peaceful surroundings to focus on the activity, I left them. Kalvis also went out. He sat on a rock while I faced the flowers in the small garden at the side of the room where the children were taught.I suddenly turned around when I felt the wind blowing on my neck. I felt that wind because I tied my hair in a ponytail."God, Veronica, we are not doing what we are supposed to do," he said.My eyebrows almost met as I looked at him with a stare that asked him if he was certain about what he said."What? Are you just going to stare at me?”“Kalvis, what should I tell you? I mean, what do you want me to say? Whether I'm going to justify myself or not, it still means bad to you. I am always wrong in your eyes. Remember that you don't see the right things I do, but you can quickly see my mistakes. You're the only one who's always right, right? ”“Whatever! Just make sure what you're asking the kids to do makes sense.
