THE MAN IN GREEN UNIFORM (Montenegro Series #3)

Chapter 21

Daniella's POV.

"I'll just stroll around the mall, balikan na lang kita honey," I told my husband.

He is in the middle of a lunch meeting kung saan niya ako sinama. Nabo bored naman ako dahil wala akong alam magpatakbo ng business.

Mabuti pang mag shopping na lang ako. I wasted years sa pag aaral from teaching to architecture, lahat naman di ko magamit.

I was not born to work, I was supposed to be just a rich housewife but what happened? Lahat 'yon nasira.

Everyone thought na may anak na ako pero I ended up being a step mom to my current husband's kid. Stephen and Selestiel.

Pumasok ako sa isang exclusive shop dito. They have the most expensive bags and jewelries.

Automatic akong napahinto at napatago sa isang gilid ng makita ko kung sino ang nasa loob.

It's Akira.

The same Akira who took my boyfriend away. The same woman who betrayed me to steal the man I love. The woman who ruined my life. Ang babaeng nagnakaw kay Thunder sa 'kin.

"Here you go ma'am," sabi nung sales lady sa kanya.

Mukhang may tinitingnan siyang alahas.

"What's the selling price?" she asked.

"4.8 million pesos po Mrs. Montenegro."

Mrs. Montenegro!

Napalunok ako as I recall the pain, ako yung dapat na tinatawag na ganyan. Ako yung dapat nasa tabi ni Thunder.

Ako yung mahal niya.

Then she came and ruined everything.

Akira just nodded. Binalik nung sales lady sa istante yung alahas.

Gusto kong matawa. Sa reaksyon niya, I'm sure she cannot afford it. She is a total loser noon pa man.

Magara akong lumabas sa pinagtataguan ko. I was able to caught everyone's attention. I even sashayed my hair.

Akira just stared at me.

Mabilis akong lumapit doon sa kinaroroonan nila.

I smiled at the sales lady before looking at Akira.

"Long time no see Akira," sabi ko rito.

She just smirked at me.

"You may call me Mrs. Montenegro."

Gusto ko na agad siyang ihampas doon sa estante ngayon. Ang yabang niya.

"I didn't expect to see you here Daniella, I hope life is good with you."

"It is, it always has been. I'm here with my husband, ikaw, wala kang kasama?" Pang-aasar ko rito.

"Oh, my husband is busy—"

"Walang time si Thunder sa 'yo?"

She chuckled.

"Thunder will always have time for his wife, I guess hindi mo alam 'yon kasi..." She looked at me with so much confidence. "...hindi mo malalaman 'yon kasi, hindi ka naman niya naging asawa."

I bit my lip. I wanna strangle her right now.

Instead of answering her, bumaling ako sa sales lady.

"I wanna buy this." Turo ko roon sa alahas na ini inquire niya kanina.

"Po ma'am?"

Tinaasan ko si Akira ng kilay bago siya nginisian. Nag-crossed arms lang ito at bored akong tiningnan.
