Vanessa POV
"We're here to see Mr.Farrington po" i said to the front desk kaya umangat ang tingin neto sakin
"Name po?" He asked
"Vanessa pierce po, and kasama ko po ang anak ni Mr. Farrington" I answered kaya tumango ito at tinawagan muna yata si mr Farrington sa telephone
Raizel and i waited for a fee second and I noticed her uncomfortable
"What's wrong?" I asked raizel and knelt to her
"Sakit po ng paa ko" she responded and pouted kaya ngumiti ako
"Pahawak neto" i handed her sir Farrington lunch
She holds it with two hands kaya binuhat ko sya
"Poor baby" i said to her and kissed her cheek
"Hihihihi" she giggled
"13th floor po mam" the receptionist said at tinuro ang elevator kaya ngumiti ako
"Thank you po" i said and walked to the elevator
We pressed the 13th floor button and waited
"I don't like elevators" raizel whispered kaya i nods
"Yeah... it's scary noh?" I said kaya tumango ito at humigpit ang kapit sakin
Ang tagal umakyat... feeling ko hinahatak na ni san pedro ang kaluluwa ko
Kalagitnaan ng pag akyat ng elevator ay huminto ito sa 8th floor at pumasok si oliver dito
Nagka gulatan naman kami kaya agad itong nag sorry
At tumabi samin ni raizel
"Tito" pabulong na pagtawag ni raizel kay oliver kaya lumingon si oliver samin
"Hmm?" He responded
"Tita sunny is galit to you?" Tanong ni raizel kaya tinitigan lang sya ni oliver
"She told me po you're epal" raizel continued
"Tita mama, what's epal?" Raizel turned to me kaya nanlaki ang mata ko
"Ahh ehh... epal is a word for bad people" i said nalang dahil wala ako masabi
"Ohhh so you're bad tito?" Raizel asked, i slowly looked at oliver face and saw him forcing a smile na para bang gusto mang batok ng bata
Sakto naman bumukas ang pinto ng elevator at nasa 13th floor na kami
"Enjoy your stay" yun nalang ang sinagot ni oliver samin ng makalabas kami ng elevator
"Is he bad po?" Raizel asked me kaya umiling ako at mahinang natawa
"No baby, tito oliver and tita sunny are friends" i said and walked to only door in this floor
I knocked gently and waited for a sign na pumasok dito
Binaba ko muna si raizel at binitbit uli ang lunch box ni sir Farrington
I knocked again and this time my hand landed on a strong chest kaya nanlaki ang mata ko
"Was that supposed to hurt?" Sir Farrington asked kaya agad kong inalis ang kamay ko sa dibdib nya
"Sorry" i apologized habang namumula ang pisngi kaya ngumiti lang ito
"Papa!!!" Raizel called her dad in joy kaya binuhat agad sya ni sir Farrington at hinalikan sa pisngi
After what sir Farrington has said na hindi nya anak si raizel, i find it hard to believe dahil muka talaga sila mag ama. Pero what can i say? She's his sister child, his sister carbon copy
Raizel and pointed at me and smile
"Tita mama help me luto lunch for you po!" Raizel said
Napatingin naman ai sir Farrington sakin, marahil ay dahil gumagamit ng 'po' si raizel kaya ngumiti ako
Pinapasok naman ako ni sir Farrington sa office nya at sinara ang pinto
Tumakbo naman agad si raizel sa sofa sa gitna ng office at humiga duon
"You taught her to use 'po'?" Sir Farrington asked kaya tumango ako
"It's important for a child to learn how to respect through words" i said kaya napatango ito at bumaba ang tingin sa hawak ko
Napatingin din ako sa hawak ko at agad na inabot kay sir Farrington iyon
"Lunch?" I smiled kaya ngumiti din ito at kinuha ang lunch nya sa kamay ko
"Thank you..." he responded with a smile
Pupuntahan kona rin sana si raizel ng hawakan ni sir Farrington ang kamay ko
"About your auntie..." I stopped and turned to him
"Raizel" he called raizel kaya agad na tumingin ito sakanya
"You can play at your play room muna" sir Farrington said kaya agad na ngumiti si raizel at lumabas ng office
My eyes followed raizel and she entered a room just across
Raizel left the door opened so we can still see her inside
"Here" sir Farrington handed me a check kaya nanlaki ang mata ko sa gulat
₱1,000,000 ang nasa checke, isang milyon...
"I heard you talking to them... and noticed how bothered you are" he said
"Use this to pay them... and about your father, I already payed the hospital bills too" he said kaya napayuko ako sa hiya
"I don't need this sir, kaya ko po-" he cut me off
"You can pay me back in the future" he said kaya napaisip ako
If I accepted this... mababayaran kona si tita and sa hospital... so si sir Farrington nalang ang babayaran ko
dahan dahan akong tumango at kinuha ang check
"Thank you po" i said kaya ngumiti ito sakin
"Raizel really likes you, thank you for looking after her" sir Farrington said kaya ngumiti ako
"Papa!" Raizel called kaya napatingin kami
She waved a few toys to us kaya pareho kaming ngumiti sakanya ni sir Farrington
"Anyway, did you both had your lunch already?" tumango ako agad at ngumiti
"Kanina pa po sir" i said and looked at the clock
"Sir, una na po kami at babalik pa po ako sa cafe" paalam ko kaya tumango ito
"I see, alright take care" he said kaya pinuntahan ko si raizel sa kabilang kwarto at niyaya na
"Bye bye!" Raizel waved her hand and sir Farrington does the same too hanggang sa maka sakay na kami ng elevator
"Tita mama" raizel called me kaya bumaba ang tingin ko uli sakanya
"Hmm?"
"Do you like papa?" She asked kaya nanlaki ang mata ko
"B-bakit?" I awkwardly asked
"Your cheek is red po" she giggled kaya lalong namula ang pisngi ko
"Shh secret muna po natin ito" she said and hold unto my hand kaya napailing nalang ako
Pero... do i like sir Farrington?
