The Cutest Mafia Boss

C15: Mochi

*MARTIN TYLER*

Pwedeng magmura? Kahit mga sampu lang.

Kanina ko pa gustong magwala. All this time, akala ko niloloko ako ni bubwit.

"Martin-san, you don't like the food?" Tita Yuri asked.

"No, it's actually good. I liked it," sagot ko na lang at nagpatuloy sa pagkain.

"Na, kodomo." Biglang nagsalita si Tito Kiseki kaya nilingon ko si Yvonne. Pero busy siya sa kapatid niya. Sinusubuan niya ito at pinupunasan pa ang labi.
(Hey, Kid.)

Tinignan pa nga ako ng kapatid niya tapos ay tinaasan ng kilay. Yung totoo, ayaw yata sa 'kin ni Yui.

"Na, kodomo. Stop feeding your sister. She's too old to be fed," saad ng tito kay Yvonne pero hindi man lang siya pinansin ng dalawa.

"Tsk." Hinawakan ni tito Kiseki ang tinidor niya at nagulat na lang ako nang ihagis niya ito sa harap ni Yvonne. Pero mas nagulat ako nang saluhin ni Yvonne ang tinidor kahit hindi pa siya nakatingin.

Heck... That was really cool.
So I married someone this cool?

"Anata!" asik ni tita saka binatukan si tito.

"Asobu ni yameru!"
(Stop playing!)

"Iee janae yo!" depensa pa nito pero binatukan lang siya ulit ni tita. Narinig ko naman ang tawanan ng magkapatid, saka pa dumila si Yvonne sa tatay niya.
(I am not!)

What kind of family are they, really?

"Oh. Don't mind my husband, Martin. He's just an idiot sometimes."

"Okusan!"

"Shhh, Anata!"

(Okusan-wife. Anata-husband.)

Marahan na lang akong napailing dahil sa nasaksihan. They are weird. Beautifully weird.

Natapos ang pananghalian at nagsitungo kaming lahat sa sala. Katapat namin ang mga magulang ni Yvonne. At magkayakap naman ang magkapatid. E, di sila na ang close.

"Actually, we came here to buy you a gift," panimula ni tita Yuri.

"And it is a house for you to live," dagdag pa ni tito Kiseki.

"We apologized for our absence on your wedding day."

"It's alright. Atleast I met you today," sagot ko na lang.

"But we have a request for you, if it's alright."

"Of course, tita. What is it?"

"You see. Yui wants to live and study here in the Philippines and we can't turn down her request, but unfortunately we have to come back to Osaka for the business. And so we thought, if you could take care of her for a while."

"Yui will live here with me?"

"Hai, onee-chan. Daijobu-kana?"
(Yes, ate. Is it alright?)

"Mochiron!" sagot ni Yvonne at saka ako nilingon.
(Of course!)

"Okay lang naman 'di ba, Martin?" tanong pa niya. I looked at Yui and she was raising a brow at me again. And it was hella scary.

"Ah... O-oo naman, walang problema."

"So is it a yes then?"

"Yes!" sagot ni Yvonne.

Wala namang problema na may kasamang iba sa bahay. Pero mukhang si Yui ang may problema sa 'kin.

Taena, ano bang ginawa ko?

"Kekkon omedeto, Uwayaku-sama! Martin-sama!" I nearly jumped when the men in yukatas bowed to us.
