" Are you sure about this Coco? Why don't you think about this first, does Mr. Navarro knows about you selling the unit? "

I sighed and shook my head in disgust then looked up the ceiling while my phone is against my ear as I'm talking to Gavin through call. Why does he need to mention the name of the person I despises? Just hearing that name can bring back the pain in instant.

" I believe that I'm the owner Gavin and he can't say no about this, it's my property not his. I will leave this country soon that's why. ", I retorted annoyingly. " I consulted to you so I can ran the transaction legally then if you'll just suggest shits then sorry for interrup-

" Wait a minute hang in there young lady, I was just asking alright no need to outburst. ", Gavin chuckled and I mentally rolled my eyes for his attitude. He's always like that, he's a manager yet barely professional. He even had the guts to cut me off, the goose.

" Gorilla. ", I mocked reason why he stopped from chucking.

" Seriously gorilla now? The fudge Coco I thought I'm only a monkey then why gorilla now? Did I just got promoted? Why woman of your age always calling me pet names where's the justice in there I couldn't see mine?! Mang Jo what's wrong with me?! ", I found myself bursted in laughing that later on hold my stomach when I felt it hurts due to too much laughter.

Somehow I felt like my mood lifted a bit and it was all about Gavin's silliness. I regret everything but expect meeting them if I could just turned back the time and be contented, probably by now my young heart's still unwounded and felt the curse of betrayal.

" Is that Coco you're talking too Gavin? ", I heard the voice of Mang Jo that made me smile, an image of him smiling appeared on my imagination.

" Yes Uncle and she's bullying me again. First Coco then again a new tease came, I'm sure if you'll meet Sav you'll get along quick. Both of you can make my life a living hell. ", He narrated sounded so problematic, I could picture him with an unpaintable face that surely even a professional artist will refuse to paint.

Mang Jo chortled.

" Your girlfriend? ", I inquired a bit curious cause this is the first time he mentioned a name of a girl. I haven't heard him having a girlfriend though.

" No. ", He answered panicking. " Not gonna happen, she always go to my office everytime Mr. Tacky brings her to work. And she's crazily annoying! "

" He's a babysitter apart from a Hotel Manager my daughter. See how hardworking your brother is? The kid even raised his salary. ", Mang Jo interfere taunting cause Gavin to whine as his Uncle didn't side him again.

But it wasn't the reason why out of the blue alone tear escaped from my left eye. It was about Mang Jo addressing me daughter. It's heartwarming that even lead me to freed a tear.

If I could just choose a family where I'm going to raise I will indeed choose them. Come to think of it, they barely know me, they should indicating gap yet here they are accepting me fully without exchange. We aren't communicating still they didn't treat me unfairly.

I cleared my throat. " Can we all meet? I miss the two of you. ", I'm a bit shy that it came out unsure.

" Sure. ", They exclaimed in unison and just laugh. " We misses you too. I'm tired seeing Gavin's face my dear daughter. You're right he's a monkey. "

The call ended after our teasing. If Mang Jo didn't leave for work maybe we're still talking by now exchanging teases and Gavin will protest because none of is side him. He acted childish that even sulked.
