THIRD PERSON
"Kuya Quin," sambit ng bunsong kapatid nito.
"It's your day, bakit hindi ka magstay sa bahay niyo with Ate Sula?" Jaxon asked as he scan some files on Joaquin's table.
"Speaking of her, it's been a while since I saw her. Is she alright?" He asked.
"She quit in Kuya Jihan's company so probably nasa house niyo lang siya, right?" Napaangat ang tingin ni Joaquim sa kaniya.
He has no intention to talk with his brother pero prinovoke talaga siya nito para lang mapansin. He doesn't know that Sula had quit her job, hindi niya pa ito malalaman kung hindi sasabihin ni Jaxon. Hindi rin naman sila in good terms ni Jihan kaya malabong makipag-usap pa siya rito tungkol kay Sula.
She loves her job dearly. Why would she decide to quit?
Ursula would prefer working all night than sleeping in their cozy bed. She tend to brag about her layouts and outputs, she even endorsed herself to her own husband para siya ang i-hire na graphic designer sa next issue ng magazine ng Bermuda Corporation.
Kaya bakit siya nagresign? May nahanap na ba siyang bagong opportunity? Baka naman may kinalaman pa rin ito kay Joaquin. Maybe their relationship ruined her passion.
'She might had ended her job because of me,' he thought.
"I'll visit there sometimes. I want to see the baby habang nasa tiyan pa siya. Ayaw kong malalaman ko nalang na nanganak na siya ano," sambit ni Jaxon as if alam na nitong nagdadalantao si Ursula.
"Anong favorite food niya these days? Papasalubungan ko ng pinaglilihian niyang pagkain!" He exclaimed.
"Why are you expecting that I will let you enter my house?" He diverted his eyes on the papers again.
"Ang arte mo talaga. Umuwi ka na nga, ako na muna ang CEO rito," inilayo ni Jaxon lahat ng mga files sa table.
"Oh, I forgot why I came here!"
"My campus wants to invite you there," Joaquin raised his brow after hearing that.
"Si Jihan ang guluhin mo, please," pinilit nitong abutin ang mga papel na nasa kamay ni Jaxon para ibalik sa table.
Pero nilayo lang ito lalo ni Jaxon. "Need nila ay ikaw, nag-ask na rin ako ng permission kay dad na hiramin ka today. Pumayag siya kasi birthday mo rin naman!"
"Birthday gift ko na sa'yo," Joaquin hissed.
The last birthday gift he had received from his family is a wife. Now, campus tour nalang?
He clearly remembers the day when his father decided to put him as a package to anybody who purchased a ticket with a code of his own birth date.
They will draw the raffle exactly on his own birthday but it was pre-calculated. His father rigged the grand draw. They persuaded Sula to join, Mr. Bermuda knew her all along.
Aware si Joaquin sa mangyayari sa buhay niya. He is not the one who will decide for his own future. The illustrator of his own blueprint is his father. Pero hanggang ngayon ay hindi niya pa rin malaman ang dahilan kung bakit pinagpilitan ng papa niyang kay Sula siya ibagsak. Hirap siyang tanongin ang kaniyang dad lalo pa't ngayong nagrerecover palang ito sa stroke. Hindi pa ito gaanong kaayos magsalita.
He expected to marry a woman in luxury, a lady in the same boat with him. Never niyang inakalang mamamanhikan pa siya, makikipagtungo sa mga kaibigan nito, all he thought is about business lang ang lahat once na i-arrange siya sa serious marriage.
