Chapter 1

"Miss Bree, I'm sorry but your dad didn't allow me to bring you to the airport. He said that you have to stay here in Miami for a while, for a few days until he says so," bungad sa akin ng driver/bodyguard ko pagkapasok niya ng condo unit ko.

Nag-init kagad ang ulo ko. Ilang araw na rin akong walang ginagawa dito sa Amerika. I just graduated from my program last week and hindi man lamang dumating si Dad. Worst of all, ayaw naman niya akong pauwiin ngayon. Ano bang problema sa Pilipinas? I gave David my bored look and said, "Well, David, I'm your boss here in the States. And I say you take me to the airport because I'll be late for my flight back to Manila." 

Ipinagdiinan ko sa kanya ang salitang Manila. Oo, atat na atat na akong umuwi at makita muli si Dad. Alam kong may nangyayari na ayaw niyang ipaalam sa akin kaya ayaw niya akong pauwiin. But gosh, I'm a big girl now. I'm twenty-two for goodness' sake! Dad can't just hide things from me. I'm old enough to deal with things myself.

I stood and pointed to my luggages by the door.  "Those are my stuff. Take them." Nakita kong nangunot ang noo ni David. "I said take them. Now," I ordered with more authority this time. I just hope he listens.

"Miss Bree, your father's orders are very clear."

"I'm not deaf. I heard you, David. But I have my own free will, too. And I say, I'll go back to the Philippines and see whatever dad's hiding from me. So, please, take my luggages," seryosong utos ko sa kanya.

Ilang segundo ng katahimikan ang namagitan sa aming dalawa hanggang sa sumuko na rin si David at sunod-sunod na binuhat ang mga gamit ko. That's more like it! Nakita ko siyang lumabas na ng unit upang dalhin ang mga gamit ko sa kotseng maghahatid sa akin papuntang airport.

I looked at my entire unit, sat at my bar stool and bid goodbye habang inilalabas ni David ang mga gamit ko. This has been my home for two years and I sure as hell am gonna miss it! "Bye," I muttered. Just then, my phone rang. Non-registered caller. I answered it, "Hello? This is Bree."

"Your dad fucking told you to stay in Miami. So, stay in Miami!" mariing sabi ng lalaki sa kabilang linya.

Ni hindi ko siya kilala. "And who the fucking hell are you, Mister?" Malamang isa na naman sa mga tauhan ni daddy. Kung ganon, wala siyang karapatang pagtaasan ako ng boses at murahin.

"Watch your language, sweetheart. I say you stay there in Miami," utos nito sa mas mababang tono. Pero hindi pa rin ako kumbinsido.

"Sino ka ba? I'm sorry, sir, but my driver's already –"

"Caterina, please listen to me and stop being a brat. This is Luke and I say you stay there in Miami. If you don't listen, I'm gonna tie you up myself there."

Alam niya ang second name ko. And how I hate my second name because it's my mother's name! "What the fuck! My name is Abrianna and I don't even know you. Tauhan ka ba –"

"I already called David. He's bringing your things back to your unit. And I ordered him to lock you up in your condo right after." True enough, pumasok si David dala-dala muli ang mga luggages na kanina lamang ay ibinaba na niya.

"Oh, fuck me," I whispered, with dread. Siguradong seryoso ang nangyayari sa Pilipnas kaya ayaw akong pauwiin ni dad. Gaano kaya kaseryoso ito? Paano ako? Paano na si dad? I'm so fucked up here.

"Baby, if you only know how much I want to." Ang boses ni Luke ang nakapagpabalik sa akin sa phone call. Bastos ang lalaking to!

"Bastard!" sigaw ko sa phone ng makita kong papalabas na si David. "David, wait!" I shouted after him at tumayo na ako mula sa bar stool na kinauupuan ko. Ngunit masyadong malayo ang pinto at mabilis na nakalabas si David. And I heard a click and some keys from the other side of the closed door. "Shit," I said in exasperation. Kinatok ko ng kinatok ang pinto. "David, open the door! Shit, open this now!" Ngunit, walang sumasagot sa akin.
