I was in tears again because of what happened. I can no longer hide my true feelings from Mama. I hugged Mama and apologized.
"I'm sorry, forgive me if I made a mistake. If I wasn't able to brag about you to my friends. Forgive me ma...
Mama rubbed my back. It seems to understand how I feel.
"It's okay son, I understand why you did that."
I stopped crying and looked at Mama.
"Y-you know, ma'am?" I will ask.
Yes, child, it's been a long time... that's why I often don't go out when your classmates visit. I know that they don't know that I am your parent. I know it's wrong, but for me where you are happy I will support you. That's how I love you, son, I know you don't want to do that. So I understand why he did that."
I hugged Mama again. I have committed so many sins. But here he is now, still making me feel how important I am to him.
My disappointment in love goes hand in hand.
Tomorrow...
Sean called me, he was in the garden and was currently having coffee. It reads the files I made in the past for what he will say and what he will do. It's refreshing because he doesn't do that. I often read in front of him because he is too lazy to read. It seems that he has become serious in his fight with Julius.
I approached him which he immediately noticed. I sat in the chair opposite to where he was sitting.
"How are you?" this is the first open question to me. Miracle and he is saying hello to me now. I thought he would ask for a job right away.
"I'm fine," I answered briefly.
"Are you sure?"
"I'm fine. Thank you for defending me yesterday. Now I feel at ease because I no longer have to keep secrets from them." I thought that it was good for me that Niña found out about me so quickly. At least now I can start again; the one who has no secret. I will never be ashamed of my single parent who raised me.
Good. Anyways, that's why I called you to tell you that starting today you will no longer work for me."
I was surprised by what Sean said. Won't work? He's firing me?
"Huh? Why?!
"Because I don't want you to work with me as an assistant anymore."
"But Madam told me, I should wait until the end of—"
"There is no need. Starting today you will no longer accompany me on my campaigns. I'll talk to Mommy so you can apply for the job you want.""Who told you to fire Aira?!" An angry voice startled Sean, while he was listening to music on his ipad. He was lying in bed when his mommy came, very angry because she found out that he had fired Aira from work.
"Mom, I can manage my self, so I don't need him anymore."
Manage your self? Really?! Since when?"
Sean didn't answer, instead he turned his eyes to the ipad he was holding. But his mommy stole it so he was forced to face it.
"What?" Sean asked annoyed.
Are you really not listening to me, Sean?! You make everything a game, take the election seriously because if you don't you will regret everything! I will let Aira in again tomorrow and he cannot leave until the election is over!
Sean stood up at what his mom said.
"No! I don't need her! Don't send him back because I can take care of myself. Please mom, let him apply for another job! Sean promised his mommy.
"How many times have you told me that? You said you can be yourself. But you always get into trouble. I feel more confident when Aira is there by your side!
"But I want him, Mom! And if you insist on pushing her to me, I don't know if I can handle my feelings for her!" Sean's mommy was stunned by what he revealed. He couldn't believe that his son would fall in love with the daughter of a maid.
"What? Are you insane, Sean?! it asked.
"Yes. I'm insane, and I don't know how to stop myself. And until he was there, my view of him got worse..." he confessed.
Sean's mom shook her head in disbelief. "You're crazy, Sean. To the number of women you meet, and chase after you. You still like a maid's son? Where is your thinking that even Aira will sympathize with your foolishness?!
"I'm serious, Mom! I love her, and if you still insist on hiring her. I can't promise I won't date her! Sean seriously promised his mother.
A day later Madam spoke to me. It has officially fired me. And that was my happiest day, because I could work with someone else. I was training as a stewardess and while I was training, Mama kept telling me about what was happening in Sean's fight. Sean won as a councilor, maybe one of the reasons why he won is because their family is better known to have good intentions for the town, unlike Julius who has just been known in the industry and there are almost only a few knows him. I just hope Sean learns, because a lot of people will ask for his help.I just finished work, I took my suitcase out of the airport. When someone suddenly blocked my path. A bunch of red roses covered the face of a handsome man. It slowly lowered the rose and I saw who was holding it.
"Ju-julius?!" I stammered out here.
"Hi. are you free now? Can we eat outside? It begged me that I did not refuse.
We ate at a restaurant where there were only a few people eating. It's pretty quiet around here so Julius and I can really talk deeply.
"I'm sorry if you lost the election, there will be another one and you will definitely win the next one."
He smiled at me, as if laughing at what I said. "It's okay, I know I won't win no matter what I do. I'll just let people regret not voting for me." It says something arrogant to me. I just winced at what he said, as if his self-confidence was too high.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time. I was busy with the election. It's still hard to beat Sean, I hope I can beat him in something else." I frowned at what he said. What else is he saying?
"Ahm, so what are you busy with now? Where is Shantel? I ask here.
"Shantel and I haven't seen each other for a long time, but I know she's in Dubai."
Dubai? You two are in a long distance relationship? I didn't move anymore because I wanted to know if she and Shantel were still together.
"Huh? No. Shantel and I are not," he said, which surprised me greatly.
You're not but you're kissing? What is that called, past tense?
Ah... really? Okay. I just agree with him.
"By the way, when we last met at the beach, I didn't chase you because I talked to your friends."
"Huh? Niña? W-what did you two talk about?
I told them to change before it's too early. Because if they don't change, I will expose what they are doing to their parents. I know that they are afraid that their parents will know what they are doing. I know they will stop you, and it's better if you don't even consider them as friends. They are not good friends because a true friend will not let you down.
Dumping? If so, does he really believe that I cheated on him?
"Julius, they told you wrong. It's not true that I hated you then. You know the truth?
He looked at me and waited for me to say something.
"The truth is that I really felt for you then. I love you and it hurts me what I did before to tell you that I don't like you."
Julius was stunned for a moment. It didn't seem like he expected me to say that.
"Really?" it only mentioned. It's like he's struggling to say something. But later he spoke again. "Then are you willing to date me again?"
