Hiding The Mafia Boss Son (COMPLETED)

19 - WARNING

(Contains of scene that not suitable for young audiences. Read at your own risk)

      3 YEARS passed, and those years wasn't easy. Success comes from great sacrifices and willingness to achieve your goal.

It wasn't easy but doesn't mean you will give-up. Ang dali kasi sumuko kaysa sa lumuban. Ang dali sabihin 'ayaw ko na' kaysa sa 'itutuloy ko'. It easy to give up the life rather than to fight.

Wala kasi sa atin nagsabi na puno pala ng paghihirap at luha ang buhay.
But do you really want to end your journey without being happy? The world took my happiness at early age and its my responsible to take that happiness back.

I may fail now, i may be suffering now, but I will be whole again. Looking back the past without getting hurt and day will come, i will be able to forgive myself again.

"Atty. Papuran, do you want to handle another case again?" my assistant asked me.

Kakatapos pa lang ng kaso na hinawakan namin, ay nanalo kami.

"She need to handle another case. Ang dami pumipila ngayon sa firm natin umaasa na magiging abogado ang ace ng firm natin! Atty. Papuran who saved our firm from bankruptcy years ago, our ace!" malakas na halaklak ni Atty. Reyes.

I'm under his wings. 3 years ago, I was lost after the fall of my last firm. Kahit sa tulong ni Keighn at ni Khem, hindi ko alam kung saan ako papasok. Until, Khem, invite me to her hearing in court and I saw Atty. Reyes who have the same wisdom and principles as me.

"Hindi naman dahil sa akin lang. We worked hard for it and everyone of us deserve the credit." I smiled at them.

Lumapit si Atty. Reyes sa akin at niyakap niya ako ng sobrang higpit. "Kahit gaano kabigat ng kaso, huwag na huwag ka susuko. Life is full of trial and winning isn't our main goal but the lesson behind fall. I would like to see you shine more."

I wish my younger self received this kind of word of affirmation when she's doubting herself and experiencing failure.

He's a father figured to all of us. And my younger self would be probably happy if she have him back then.

"Goodluck, Attorney, sa susunod nating kaso! Alam mo ba ang sabi nila? You're the next face of Lady Justice." my assistant delighted in joy.

I can't help but to blush and to be shy in their compliments.

"Malayo pa, pero sana mas marami tayo matulungan makuha ang hustisya." I bow to them and decide to go home.

Home. Ngayon alam ko na ang kahulugan nito. Ang kukupkop sa'yo sa tuwing nadadapa ka, sa tutulungan ka maghilom at magtawad. Ang magbibigay init sa gitna ng bagyo.

And he's my home.

I decided to go to Mall first and buy food for us.

Nasa loob na ako ng Mall nang may nakita akong pamilyar na mga tao habang palabas sa isang fast food chain at masayang nagtatawanan.

I felt my body trembling. Not in fear but in envy.

They seem fine without me.

"Ate?!" rinig kong sigaw nito mula sa malayo. My younger brother running towards me with the smile on his face.

A pure smile without any agony and somehow it ease my worries.

"Ate, ikaw nga!" ani niya nang nasa harapan ko na siya. Niyakap niya ako ng sobrang higpit.
