                  SOMEONE'S POV;

         “FINALLY it's good to be back” I said.

I finally back here, and hoping na makita ko ulit sya. It's been 4 years na wala ako dito sa pilipinas, at 4 years naring diko sya makalimutan.

Nang makalabas ako ng airport ay nakita ko si Ferry na nagaantay at nakasandal sa kotse.

“Ferry!” malakas na pagtawag ko.

She looked at me and smiled. “Dalian mo na, may pupuntahan pa tayo”

Naglakad na ako dali dali palapit sakanya. Saka sumakay ng kotse nya. Just you guys to know I don't have a parents. They died in a car accident a years ago, at oo uhaw ako sa pagmamahal kaya kung ano ang gusto ko nakukuha ko at lahat ng naging akin babawiin ko. Marked my words no matter what it takes.

                   EROLL POV;

         I CALLED Kourtney kanina pero hindi nya sinagot. Kaya hindi ko nalang muna tinawagan at baka busy din sa trabaho nya just like me. I'm so busy, nawawalan na nga rin ako ng oras para sa sarili ko because there's so much work to do. Sa one month na pagtatrabaho ko dito mga 1 week yata ako nag over time matapos ko lang 'to on time.

“Mister Gomez, someone wants to talk to you. If you don't want I just gonna tell him to come back again” saad ng secretary ko.

“No, let him in” sabi ko.

Nakangiting tumalikod naman ito atsaka binuksan ang pinto at niluwal nun si mister Mateo. Tumayo ako atsaka lumapit sakanya. At nakipag shake hands.

“Your secretary is rather rude”mister Mateo said.

My secretary looked at me. “Do you know him sir?”

He's our company co-founder, how could you not know him.” I said.

He looked at mister Mateo and bow his head.

“I'm so sorry mister Mateo, I didn't mean to be rude to you. I was just saying that mister Gomez is kind of busy right now. And you looked different today mister Mateo” saad ng secretary ko.

“HAHAHAHHAA did you notice my new hair cut? I bet you do”

“Of course sir,” my secretary said to him again

“Would you like to take a seat mister Mateo” I said saka sya tinuro ang sofa.

“No thank you, I just came here to tell you this personally”He said and looked at my secretary.

“Jadine please leave us for a moment” I said.

He bow his head and walked away. Nang makalabas na si Jadine ay lumapit naman ng bahagya sakin si Mister Mateo.

“Ano po yun sir?” tanong ko.

May sinabi sya sakin na hindi ko inaassahan na sasabihin nya. Wala sa sariling nagtungo ako sa cafeteria ng company namin at um-order ng kape.

Nang maka order nako ng kape ay naupo ako sa vacant seat. I pulled out my phone to my pocket and calles Kourtney immediately. Nahtatlonf ring before nya sinagot.

“Ano?!” halata sa boses nya na irita ito.

“Mahal, it's me” I said.

“Mahal?? Oh bakit ka napatawag?” she asked.

“I just want to check on you, so how are you?” I asked.

“Mahal, tatawag nalang ako tomorrow. Remember gabi na dito”

“Ayy oo nga pala, sorry sige na tulog na.. I love you goodnight”

“Bye love you too, don't over worked yourself”

“Yes po,”

And with that I drop the call. I forgot na gabi nga pala sakanila pag umaga dito. I'm so exhausted now, I can't even think straight dumagdag pa yung sinabi ni Mister Mateo.

Nang maubos ko na ang kape ko ay nagtungo ako sa cr at naghilamos. Mabura lamang sa isip ko lahat ng gumugulo dito, lalo't na may meeting pa ako later.

After ko maghilamos ay nagtungo na ako sa office ko. Bago nga pala ako pumunta dito sa opisina ko ay sinabihan ko si Jadine na tawagin nalang ako if magsisimula na ang meeting.

Pinatong ko ang kamay ko sa mesa at pinatong ko din sa kamay ko ang ulo ko and closed my eyes. At dahil nga na bo-bother ako sa sinabi ni Mister Mateo about my gang, ay nagtungo na ako sa conference room.

“Jadine, start the meeting without me.” saad ko.

“Why sir?”

“I just need to go somewhere, but don't worry I'll be back” I said.

Tumango sya kaya dali dali akong nagtungo sa parking lot at nagmaneho pauwi. Pagkauwi ko nakita ko agad si Shawn sa couch na nakaupo.

“Oh, you got home so early” he said as he glance at me and looked back at his phone.

“Oh thanks god you're here,” I said.

Lumapit ako sakanya and clear my throat.

“Why?”

“Shawn, I need you to go the philippines right now to check on my gang. And tell them to leave that hideout and find somewhere else to hide” I said.

“Eroll you kind of scarying me,”

“Shawn please...”

“Fine, pero di ako basta basta makakakuha ng flight ngayon,”

“You don't have to worry about that, tinawagan ko na si Jeff para i-ready ang chopper”

“Sige” he said saka tumayo.

Sinabayan ko sya maglakad sa garahe and held his arm na kinatingin nya naman sakin.

“And looked after Kourtney while I'm gone” I said.

He smiled. “Okay, basta walang sisihan pag na inlove sakin si Kourtney”

“Tsk, she will never.”

“Sige na.. Ilang days ba ko doon?”

“Tatawag ako pag pwede kanang bumalik dito”

“Okay, okay, ikaw nalang bahalang magpaliwanag kay ma”He said and I just nodded.

For the first time in our life na nagkasundo kaming dalawa. We're like cat and dog kung mag away. But thankful ako na kagaya ni Shawn ang naging kapatid ko.

Na kahit na may nagawa akong masama sakanya in past, he learned to forgive me.

Nakahinga na ako ng maluwag, ngayon alam ko na magiging ayos na ang lahat. Habang wala ako sa pilipinas.
