One Deep Love

Chapter 5

Athanasia's POV

"Sorry po mommy. I didn't mean to say that po." Kahapon pa sorry ng sorry sa akin si zeke kahit na palagi kong sinasabi na ayos lang.

"It's okay, zeke. Hindi naman galit si mommy." Sabi ko at binuhat siya dahil nasa may rock formations na kami. Umupo ako doon at inupo si zeke sa kandungan ko.

"Hindi ka po galit sakin, mommy?" Umiling ako at tinignan ang mga tao na masayang naliligo sa dagat. Nakita ko pa sina zaire na naglalaro ng beach volleyball. Wala nga lang si kaius at zendee.

Probably dating by now.

Pag-dating ko kahapon dito ay nanlaki ang mga mata niya. Sa tingin siguro niya ay mapapatay ako sa dami ng mga tauhan niya kahapon. She underestimated me yesterday. Masamang damo ako kaya mahirap akong patayin. I knew it's her plan to assassinate us all yesterday and she also knew that my priority is to save them from 'her' mens so alam niya na isasakripisyo ko ang sarili para maligtas sila. I also counted her in kasi hindi niya alam na alam ko ang pagkatao niya. All she knows is that I don't know anything about her AT ALL. So I'll play with her. I'll act innocent kahit gusto ko nang basagin ang retokada niyang mukha.

I don't want us to fight just because I called his girlfriend a traitor and a spy. Isa pa, hindi naman talaga zendee ang pangalan niya. Zendee was the name she introduced to us before, pero akala naman niya na hindi ako makakahalata. I asked Ashton to read her background and check if she really was zendee, but when I knew about her background, parang gusto ko siyang patayin. Well, she killed zendee and nagpa-plastic surgery siya para mag-panggap na si zendee.

And that was the time when I started to hate her. Not as Zendee Rose Guardia, but as Britney Rain Beatraux. The reason why, is that she is the Beatraux Mafia's heiress. They sent their first youngest daughter in our territory. She's inside their enemy's den. And that's us.

Matagal nang mag-kaaway ang mga Beatraux, Fernandez at Kingston. But naturally, ang pamilya lang talaga namin ang totoong kaaway nila at nasangkot lang ang mga Kingston because they're close to us. Our families are friends for decades and it goes on until now. Pero ang henerasyon namin ngayon ang mas mahirap kumpara sa mga nag-daang henerasyon dahil nag-iisang anak lang ako tapos wala akong balak na mag-asawa. If I won't get married, then it will be the last of our generation dahil tuluyan nang mauubos ang fernandez kapag nagka-taon so they want me to marry someone pero wala talaga akong natitipuhan. Except for someone, of course. Pero I respect him so wala.

Mom and dad aren't forcing me anyway, so what's with the rush? Ang sabi lang nila ay hintayin ko nalang daw ang taong magpapatibok ng puso ko at ang gusto kong makasama sa buong buhay ko. But they're worrying about that now, because I'm already 22 years old yet I do not plan to get married. Usually, every woman in our family got married when they reached the age of 21 but, I am an exception. Ayaw ko lang talaga mag-pakasal dahil gusto ko pang mag-enjoy sa pagiging single.

Nakarinig ako ng pag-tunog ng bell kaya napalingon ako sa paligid at hinanap ang nagtitinda ng ice cream. Tinignan ko si zeke at nginitian.

"Hey baby, gusto mo kumain ng ice cream?" Pagsasalita ko. Nagliwanag naman ang mga asul na mata nito kaya mas lalo pa akong napangiti. Nauna akong tumalon pababa sa bato at senenyasan na tumalon din siya. He hesitated because he was afraid he might land on the rocks but I said I'll catch him kaya tumalon din siya. Nauna siyang tumakbo papunta sa lalaking naglalako ng ice cream kaya tumakbo na din ako.

Oh, I forgot to mention that he has blue eyes guys because I also knew about it last night. I asked him why his eyes are blue and he said 'my mama is an American and she inherited her eyes from my grandpa. So I also inherited my mama's blue eyes'. Kaya tango ako ng tango.
