You All Over Me ('La Magie' Book 2)

Secretly

A month has passed and everything seemed to be working well para sa mag fiance.

They're still living happily in love under one roof and aside from that, mejo nabawasan na din ang conflict sa relasyon nila.

The divorce is still ongoing and nothing's changed Liza is still bitter about it at paminsan ay nakakarinig pa din ng mga hindi magagandang salita si Bong sa kanya as they work together as the President and the FL.

Pero kahit ganun, hindi na masyadong naapektuhan si Bong. Kumbaga nasanay na rin.

He's just doing his best to bear with it total umuusad naman ang processing ng divorce nila.

Bukod pa dun, Sandro is also showing a big improvement when it comes to accepting Bong and Sara's relationship.

Ilang beses na ding dumadalaw ito sa unit nila just to hang out with Diara.

To Sara and Bong's surprise, mahal na mahal ni Sandro ang baby sister niya at kung dati ay si Bong lang ang nag sspoil kay Diara, ngayon pati na din si Sandro.

He never visits Diara empty handed. It's either may dala itong toys, hair accessories o damit and if you watch him interact with Diara, pwede na silang mapagkamalang mag ama.

In the past month, halos 3x a week na din dumadalaw si Sandro which honestly made Bong so happy.

Kung dati ay buong buo ang duda niyang may binabalak na hindi maganda si Sandro, ngayon ay unti unti na niya itong pinagkakatiwalaan.

Napaka genuine naman kasi ng pakikitungo nito kay Diara lalo na kay Sara.

Because of that, he earned the couple's trust lalong lalo na si Sara.

Kung dati ay mailap siya kay Sandro, ngayon ay sobrang lapit na yung tipong kapatid na ang turing niya dito.

She treats him the way she treats her younger brother Baste.

She completely erased all the bad things that he had done in the past and forgave him wholeheartedly.

Sandro's POV

I'm here in Pops' and Sara's condo hanging out with my baby Diara.

And yes, I call her my baby now. Inangkin ko na, ang cute kasi and if given a chance to have a daughter in the future, I want her to be just like Diara.

Bukod sa napakaganda ay napakalambing pa. I love the fact that kami lang ni pops ang nakakapagpatahan sa kanya. Kahit si Sara di kaya eh.

Everytime that happens, lagi ko ding inaasar si Sara.

Yes I still call her Sara. I tried to call her ate pero di ko talaga kaya.

It just simply triggers a forgotten secret buried in my heart kaya kahit partner na siya ng dad ko, I still chose to call her by her first name.

Like I always did before.

Ok naman kaming dalawa. I'm honestly very happy coz when I finally decided to accept her relationship with pops, ay mas lalo pa kaming naging close at masaya na ko dun.

If I'll be brutally honest, kapag nakikita ko silang dalawa na sweet at affectionate, mejo nasasaktan pa din ako. Hindi ko nga alam kung bakit eh.

I'm not sure if I'm hurting for my mom or for myself.

Pero ganunpaman, I'm still doing my best to be the supportive best boy they want me to be.

In fact, maiiwan ako dito to accompany Sara when the president and the first lady goes to New York for another state visit.

I haven't spoken to my Mom recently at iniiwasan ko din siyang kausapin.

I know it's mean but I just couldn't take listening to her rants about Sara. I love my mother but I think I love her more.

Oo mahal ko pa din siya. Masakit man isipin pero parang mas mahal ko pa siya ngayon kaysa noon.

Being with her all the time made me see the real her.

The real Sara.

Beyond the beauty, brains and holding the second highest position in the country, she's the most adorable human being I've ever met.

Makulit, funny, masungit, malambing.

She's just a little bit of everything all rolled into one and I'm not embarrassed to admit that I love her.

So much.

But I'll keep it to myself.

As long as my dad doesn't make her cry, masaya na ako. I'd rather keep my feelings a secret in that way, I can keep her in my life.

"Hoy Sandeng!! halika na, let's eat. Lapag mo muna yang baby mo baka mamaya masanay na yan sa karga karga kawawa naman kami ng nurse. Alam mo naman na sainyo lang ni Bong tumatahan yan eh" Nakangiting sabi ni Sara sa akin as she entered Diara's room

When I saw her smile, my face also lit up then I answered her

"Ok. I'll let her go. teka ano bang ulam? gutom na din ako eh." I asked as I placed my baby in the crib.

"Ah I cooked your favorite adobo. Sabi kasi ng dad mo di ka pa daw nag lu lunch eh so ito tamang tama you'll get to eat your favorite for dinner." she said sabay labas ng kwarto.

Ewan ko ba pero parang bigla akong kinilig sa sinabi niya.

I felt my face turn red so I quickly stopped myself by slapping it gently with both hands while saying

"Sandro, calm down please. Wala lang yun. She's just being nice. Jusko please stop blushing baka mahalata pa ni pops lagot ka!!" I scolded myself

Buti nalang talaga at nawala na agad ang pamumula when I went to the kitchen.

If you're wondering why nawala agad? It's because as soon as I went out the door, I saw her.

Serving my dad food as she stared at him full of admiration and love.

When I saw that scene, di ko maiwasang mapa comment

"Shit ang sakit ha.. from kilig to pighati real quick. Ang complicated mo mahalin Sara. Pero ok na din to kaysa mawala ka ng tuluyan sa buhay ko. From now on, I'll just love you secretly until I lose my feelings for you. Baka sakaling kusa nalang mawala. " I told myself as I bowed my head and joined them in the table.

Then my dad spoke.

"Son, I just want to remind you na bukas na ang alis ko so I want you to look after your sister and Sara while I'm gone ok?" paalala ni pops sa akin

"Yes Pops. I'll be here. It will just be a few days lang naman so I think di nalang muna ako uuwi ng Ilocos. I'll just stay in Makati." sagot ko naman.

"Well that's good. Just make sure to help Sara sa mga kailangan dito ha.. I know she'll be busy as the OIC so if possible, I want you to check on your sister while she stays in the palace for a few days" nakangiting sabi niya.

"Yes po! you're so kulit naman pops. I'll watch over my baby ok? you don't need to remind me. If it's about Diara, I'll do it" I said while giggling.

When I did, I saw Sara look at me.

Ewan ko ba sa babaeng to, ang ganda ng mata eh.

ang swerte naman ni pops.

Siya ang pinili.

Siya ang minahal.

Whenever I see how Sara cares for my dad, I couldn't help but secretly wish.

"Sana ako nalang pinili mo. Pero dahil mahal mo siya, sana makahanap nalang din ako ng tulad mo. If I do, I'll make sure to never let her go."
