Fated to Love You

My Divorced Parents

A/N: August pa dapat 'to eh.

August 2022

"Ohh cute naman ng dog!" Leni gushed in an fb live. One of the Angat Buhay staff brought her dog in the office.

"Jarvi name nya maam." Cariz, the dog owner said.

Leni gladly held the dog in her arms and play with with him briefly. She suddenly missed her pet. "Namiss ko tuloy si Diego." She pouted.

"Aww!" Her staff reacted.

A lot has commented on her fb live asking where Diego is while some of them knew where he might be.

Leni read some of the comments, "Sa mga nagtatanong dito sa comments kung nasaan si Diego, sya po ay nasa kabilang bahay. Kahapon may sinend saakin na video nagpapa-groom sya. Sayang nga at hindi man lang ako nakasama. 4 days na sya dun sa kabila so talagang miss na miss ko na ang baby ko. I'll see him next week."

Few minutes later and she finally ended her live. She's bound to her next appointment with some partners. As they travelled, she opened her twitter app to see what's trending and there she saw some sliced videos and some screenshots of her fb live earlier where she mentioned about her pet, Diego. Some of them edited videos with music background while some of them mentioned her in their post, but what caught her reaction was the post which tagged her and Bongbong:

@alexandria1989:
It must be so hard for Diego to be a child of divorced parents. Come back na po kayo @lenirobredo and @bongbongmarcos

She gulped. She's still uncomfortable whenever she sees posts from random people talking about her relationship with Bongbong. She just wants to live without awkwardness.

She received a message via whatsapp. She knew it's him. He's the only person that's been messaging her using the app. She smiled widely upon opening his message, it's Diego's picture after taking a bath.

"Dieg dieg misses mommy too." She reads the message.

She immediately reacted with a heart and replied, "I'll see you next week, baby. I miss you so much. Have fun."

The next morning, Leni found out that it's international dog day. It's all over social media so she tried to FaceTime Bongbong to greet Diego but he's not answering. Baka tulog pa. She thought and proceeded with her morning routine. As she travelled to her office, she keeps on looking at her phone hoping she'll receive a callback or a message from Bongbong but there was non. Ang tanghali naman gumising nito. Mukhang maaga naman natulog kagabi. She slightly rolled her eyes.

She finally arrived. "Oh my god!" She squealed the moment she saw what's waiting for her outside. She instantly went down from her car, "Diego!" She crouched to carry her dog. Diego barked. "I missed you so much." She said hugging him.

"Maam, pinahatid dito ni Sir." Rona, Leni's staff said as she carries a bag full of Diego's stuff.

Leni frowned, "Ang aga naman. Sya naghatid dito?"

"Ay hindi po maam. Dinaan lang po kanina ng staff nya." Rona said. Leni nodded and went inside the office with Diego.

Everyone greeted her and almost squealed when they saw her walking holding Diego's leash. "Masaya na si Ma'am kasi nandito na si Diego."

Leni giggled. "Nagulat nga ako kanina pagdating ko eh. Hindi ko alam na ihahatid pala dito. Edi sana inagaahan ko."

She suddenly noticed a lot of food on the table. "Anong meron? Ang aga naman nyan."
