Maverick's POV
My head was throbbing because of a massive hangover. Buong magdamag kasi ako uminom with my friends. I planned to stay in bed all day but I had no choice but to get up and answer my damn phone which has been ringing for the past 10 minutes.
"Hello? It's so fucking early!"
"Sensya na boss. May update na ako sa pinapagawa mo..."
Para akong nahimasmasan. Dali dali akong bumangon para mag ready. When I got up, saka ko lang napansin na may babae pala na natutulog sa kama ko. Ah shit, inuwi ko nga pala to kagabi. Nakakalat pa yung mga damit niya sa sahig. I started shaking her shoulders to wake her up.
"Good morning, handsome." Bati niya sakin. Kumakagat labi pa, gusto pa ata makaisa.
"Get the fuck out of here."
"W-what?"
"Bingi ka ba? I said get the fuck out of here!"
She got out of the bed and started picking up her clothes on the floor. Dali dali siyang nagbihis at umalis.
After she left, I went straight to the bathroom and started getting ready. I put on black slacks and black leather shoes. For the top, I chose a black long sleeve polo. I kept the first two buttons open to expose the gold chain around my neck.
Pagbaba ko, walang nakahanda na almusal. All of the maids were waiting in the living room with their bags packed. Pati yung driver nakapag impake na rin. Nagse-senyasan pa sila kung sinong magsasalita. Para di na sila mahirapan, ako na.
"Lumayas na kayong lahat." I said this in a cold and scary tone kaya tumango sila at dali daling umalis.
Mga hayop na to. Porket nakuha na yung pamana ng nanay ko, basta basta na lang aalis. Akala ba nila di ko sila kayang swelduhan?
I grabbed the car keys and went out. Tangina hassle bumaba pa ako ng sasakyan para masara ko yung gate.
I was starving kaya dumaan ako sa isang café to grab coffee and a sandwich na kinain ko nalang sa sasakyan habang nagdadrive to avoid wasting more time.
After a two-hour drive, finally nakarating din ako.
There was a tricycle in front of the house. The tricycle driver was unloading some boxes at the door. After he was done with the last one, a woman came out of the house. Naka puting t-shirt, ripped shorts at tsinelas. Her hair was in a messy bun tapos tumatagaktak na ang pawis. Nag abot siya ng bayad sa tricycle driver at nagpasalamat.
She wiped off the sweat from her forehead and started bringing the boxes into the house. Di ako nag offer na tumulong kasi ba't ko naman siya tutulungan? She had a small frame pero in fairness, she was able to do it all by herself.
After she got in, I waited for a few minutes before I walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. It only took her a few seconds to open up.
"Ella Alyxandria Gutierrez?" Tanong ko. I removed my sunglasses so that I could look her straight in the eyes.
"Ikaw?" Sabi niya. Nanlaki ang mga mata kahit chinita.
I know her name but I don't really know who she is, but she knows who I am. Di ko alam ba't nagulat pa ako. Eh malamang kilala ako nito because whatever role she plays in my mom's life, I'm sure my mom has told her a lot of bad things about me.
I was still going to introduce myself anyway, pero di ko na nagawa.
Because she fucking slapped me.
"Ikaw! You're the piece of shit who ruined my wedding!"
