Run After Her

18

Kourtney Neisha Sillero

Is this what my friends are telling and calling me? Is this a dream come true?

Am'I really going to be the next gen of the soon-to-be-Mrs. Huscaro? Because if yes, then kahit ngayon na ora mismo magpapakasal ako dito sa lalaking pinakamamahal ko.

Tinanggap niya 'ko ulit ng walang pag-aalinlangan. I know that it sounds crazy but why did he waited for me, when all these years he's surrounded of tons and tons of gorgeous and sexy models?

By the way, ang tagal niyang umuwi. So, I decided na pumunta nalang sa company nila. I'll check na rin how he's doing. Baka mamaya he's overworking himself. Alagang-alaga siya sa'kin pati sa mga bata kaya naisip ko na baka pinapabayaan niya na yung sarili niya.

Nako, if ever na magkasakit 'tong si Calyx. Malilintikan ako kay Raziel. Akala mo matanda kung sermonan ako. Like hello, Raziel? I'm your mother, but you're shouting and lessoning me like you're older.

To be honest, Raziel's mind is really advanced. Masyadong matalino. I'm a magna cum laude, but I think he got his smart brain from his dad. Well, Cal's an alumni. In other words, a degree graduate in Harvard University. A summa cum laude graduate in Harvard with a gpa of 3.975. Ewan ko ba dito.

"Miss Sillero." Bati sa'kin ng secretary ni Calyx.

"Hi Vien!!" I cheerfully greeted her.

Ngumiti naman siya pabalik sa'kin. "He's just talking to someone inside, Kourtney. I hope you can wait for him." Nag-aalinlangan pa siyang ngumiti sa'kin.

I smiled at her before saying, "I waited for 13 years, a minute or an hour won't kill me Vien."

Bahagya siyang natawa sa sinabi ko. "Do you have a busy sched today, Miss Secretary? If you don't mind can we talk or chika for a while habang wala pa si Cal?"

"T*ng*na, 'yan nalang gagawin niyo mali pa?" Rinig namin ang malakas at galit na tinig na nanggagaling sa loob ng office ni Cal. Napatikhim nalang kami pareho ni Vien at natawa ng marahan.

He's hot-headed as usual. Sanay na kami ni V sakanya.

"Alam mo bang halos mabaliw 'yang boyfriend mo nung limang buwan kang nawala tas iniwanan mo pa sakanya yung mga anak niyo?" Sabi niya sa'kin.

"Sorry about that, I heard from Raziel that their tita Vien took care of them while I was away. Thank you for taking care of them even though hindi maganda yung pinagsamahan natin before."

"My God, Kourtney past is past noh. Wala na sa'kin 'yon. Tyaka I knew way back then that he likes you. Also, I like to take care of my inaanaks ang cucute nila. The siblings are screaming 'Wealth' 'Rich' and copy and paste of their father! Ang gwapo!" Halata ang saya niya dahil abot 'yon hanggang sa kanyang mga mata.

She's pretty and I won't lie about it. She's indeed pretty. In and out, it's just minsan talaga kahit ga'no ka kaganda kung hindi na ikaw yung mahal, talo ka. That's what happened to the both of us.

"I'm starting to believe in fate and having faith because of you, Kourtney. If it wasn't for you I think hanggang ngayon si Kheifer pa din yung mahal ko. Baka hanggang ngayon maging bitter pa din ako sainyo. But well--uhm, thank you. I had a chance to explore a new world and a new me. When I witness how much he loves you, I realised na hindi lang naman siya yung nag-iisang lalaki na mamahalin ko. I'm right, 7 months na kami ni Oliver ngayon. Akala ko talaga kayo nung una, akala ko byudo na siya." Natawa naman siya sa sinabi niya.

Oliver's the one who took care of me nung nasa America pa 'ko at pinagbubuntis si Iustus. I know that Oliver knew that I love his bestfriend, though lagi niyang inaasar si Calyx that he likes me and he'll court me when we were young.
