Fast Forward
Imee Marcos' POV
It's now November 7, a few days before my birthday and Eloise's christening. Everyone is busy planning, while I'm here with Eloise kasi umuwi muna si Ana, nagkasakit daw mama niya. I have to pack Eloise's things pa, because we're leaving for Ilocos Norte tomorrow. Ana bumalik ka na dito. 😭😭
Umagang umaga, ang dami ng tumatawag.
"Ma'am, which color would you want for the theme?"
"Ma'am, what time are you planning to arrive in Ilocos Norte?"
"Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am.."
Someone then knocked at the door of Eloise's nursery, it was Elena.
"Ma'am.."
"One more inquiry, then tell everyone to ask someone else, I need a break." sagot ko.
"Ma'am, choose ka daw ng cake.."
"Gosh, please ask Mama Meldy or Irene.. sila party planners.."
"Pero ma'am, the inquiry is FROM the party planners.."
"Oh my goddd" sabi ko sa sarili ko.
"Okay, what are the options ba?" tanong ko nalang, para matapos na.
"Chocolate, red velvet, or vanilla?" sabi niya.
"Red velvet na lang." sagot ko naman.
"Okay po, thank you." sagot niya at inexcuse sarili para lumabas na.
"Oh, Elena!" sambit ko.
"Yes ma'am??.."
"Please ilabas mo phone ko, daming tumatawag, nae-estorbo tulog ni Eloise." sabi ko sabay bigay ng phone.
"Okay ma'am.." sagot niya at lumabas na nga.
Ina-ayos ko na din mga drawer ni Eloise, para makapag-pack na din ako ng mga damit niya.
Matapos ang ilang minuto ay natapos ko na din, maliliit din naman na mga outfit kaya ang dali lang.
Malapit na mag-9 ng umaga, kaya, napagpasyahan ko na maligo muna habang natutulog pa si Eloise.
Paglabas ko na paglabas ng nursery ni Eloise ay sinalubong na ulit ako ni Elena. 🙃
"Ma'am.." sabi niya.
"Yes??.." medyo napipikon ko ng sagot.
"May tumawag po from the company.." anunsyo niya.
"Yes, then?" tanong ko naman.
"There's an emergency meeting daw po.." sagot niya.
"Sabihin mo sa kanila, I'm on maternity leave kaya di ako pupunta." sagot ko naman.
"Ma'am, it's very important daw po."
"Then let them send a letter regarding the meeting, I'll send one back right away." sagot ko.
"I'll go if nandun si Rody Duterte, and knowing him, hindi siya magpapakita - kaya why would I bother, lugi na naman ako diyan." dagdag ko pa.
(A/N: Manang Imee, para paraan 😎)
"Eh ma'am, they called for a meeting just because nandun na si Mr. Duterte." dagdag niya.
"Oh, let me call Ms. Vasquez muna." sagot ko.
*On call*
"Sandra!" bati ko.
"Yes, Imee?!" tanong niya.
"I won't be able to join the meeting eh, umuwi yaya ni Eloise, walang magbabantay sa kaniya. I can't just leave her here." anunsyo ko.
"Then bring herrr, I heard importante daw ang meeting." sagot niya naman.
"You do know na it's a board meeting? As much as I want to, I can't just bring her there." sagot ko naman.
"Why not? You're Imee Marcos, you basically make the rules." sagot niya naman. Sulsolera talaga to si Sandra.
"Sure ka na talaga? Pag eto umiyak sa conference room ikaw magpapatahan?" biro ko.
"That's what tita-ninangs are for hahaha" sagot niya naman.
"Sige na, dalhin mo na dito - it's been a while since I saw my little beautiful inaanak, Cheska." At ginawan pa nga niya ng nickname anak ko. 😔
"You just saw her the other day, OA mo talaga." sagot ko naman.
"Punta na kayo dito, it starts at 10:30." sabi pa niya.
"Okay, wait lang."
Tinawagan ko muna si Aimee, baka available siya magbantay ni Eloise.
"Hey, Aimax!!" bati ko.
"Ate, ate, ate, bilis! why?" tanong niya.
"Are you available?" tanong ko.
"I'm taking my finals sa univ eh, and you called right in the middle of it." sagot niya.
"Hala, shocks! Sorry, sorry.. Go! Balik ka na! Goodluck! Love you!!" bati ko.
I have no other option but to bring my daughter to work. Start em young! 😎 Charot HAHAHHA
Mabilis akong naligo at nag-bihis dahil mga 9:30 ay gigising na din si Eloise.
Next ay, pine-prepare ko na baby bag niya, mga diaper, bottles at extrang mga damit at binihisan ko na din siya, paligo-an ko nalang siya mamaya, pag-uwi.
A few moments later, we've arrived at the building, at hinintay na din ako ni Sandra sa labas ng building upang magkasama na kami pumunta sa taas.
"Good morning.." bati ko.
"Here, tabi tayo.." pag-aaya ni Sandra.
"Gosh wala na naman si Rody?" reklamo niya.
"Nandito na." sagot ni Rody habang pumasok ng conference room at tumabi sakin.
"Let us start.." sabi nung isang member ng board.
"Wait, can I announce something.." sabi ni Rody habang tinaas kamay niya.
"As you all know, I'm leaving for Europe.. But.. I am NOT selling nor withdrawing my shares in this company.." sabi niya habang tumitingin tingin kay Mr. Ramirez.
"I'm leaving all my shares under the jurisdiction of Ms. Imee Marcos.." dagdag pa niya. What the hell?
