"Sir."
"What's your name?"
"Benedicto Luis Buenaventura Santiago, Sir."
"Have a seat."
Nakahiga naman ang biyenan ko sa hospital bed pero bakit parang kahit isang maling kilos ko lang pwedeng mabyuda agad ang asawa ko?
"How great of you to marry my Kaia without me knowing even your name?"
"I am sorry Sir."
He sighed.
"What do you do?"
"My family owns a farm. I run the farm with them."
"Oh, so you employed my Kaia."
"Yes Sir."
"You're pretty smart, you tricked me there."
"I am sorry Sir, I did not mean to."
"You do not mean to? How so?"
"I do not intend to keep this but Kaia wouldn't want you to be heartbroken."
"And do you think keeping it from me would spare me from heartbreak?"
"No Sir, but I would always go agree with anything my wife would go for."
"I do not know if I can trust you."
"I will prove myself Sir!"
"Kaia finished her Postgraduate Studies in the US."
"Yes Sir, she met my mother there. My mother liked her very much she became our bridge."
"So your mother made this happen?"
"Yes Sir."
"So what now?"
"I have clean intentions with your daughter Sir. I love her and I want her to be the happiest."
"We'll see that."
"If one day, I hurt her, I will surrender myself to you, Sir."
"I have a gun Mr. Santiago and I am not afraid to kill."
"I won't mind Sir, just please believe me that I have honest intentions with your daughter. I want a family with her. But before that, I really would like you to accept us. You are Kaia's most treasured. You are her most beloved. She'd not going to be happy unless you give us your blessings."
"Wow, parang ako ngayon ang may kasalanan kung bakit di masaya ang anak ko ah?"
"Hindi naman po Sir, just that---"
"I know what my Kaia wants Mr. Santiago, believe me, because I made her like that."
Mr. Seigfreid sighed.
"I can accept this because I know my Kaia deserves happiness. But you need to promise me, that she would be the most important to you above everything else."
"She already is, Sir."
"I am not really happy you marrying my daughter in secret. My wife and I dream of bringing her to the altar. I even practiced crying! But what else can I do? You're a thief you snatched my dream."
"I am sincerely sorry Sir, but I intend to marry her again Sir, I am planning to."
"Don't do that just because you feel obliged."
"No Sir, I will do that because I love your daughter. I am just finding the right time."
"WHat will you give her then?"
