The MANCINI Flower- CS #2

☘️Dominica's POV☘️

10

She was feeling agitated on her seat, like her ass was on fire. Nasa hapag kainan na sila ng kapatid ng asawa, isa nalang ang hinihintay nila, ito ay ang bagong chairman ng mga Mancini. Sino ba namang hindi kakabahan, sa lahat ng panahong iniimbitahan nya itong kumain nang sabay sa kanila, ni minsan hindi ito nagpapa-unlak.

But this time around, she was shocked that he's coming.

"Gloria!..where are the bacon! faster!" natataranta nyang tawag sa katulong.

"you don't have to stress yourself, Dominica" natatawang sabi ni Flavio, her late husband's fratello. Ibinaba nito ang binabasang newspaper at nagsalin ng juice sa sariling baso.

Inis na tinapunan nya ito ng tingin."and you don't have to talk, per favore! ( please ) it's really not necessary" tinaasan nya ito ng kilay at paismid na inalis nya ang tingin sa lalaki.

The man always getting into her nerves!

If it isn't for her son Diego, matagal na syang umalis sa galamay ng mga ito and live a simple and peaceful life, far from this lavish but unhappy life with the Mancini. But it's not that simple, dahil kahit na kinamumuhian sya ng anak ng asawa, the man loves and adores her son, na sya namang ipinagpapasalamat nya. It feels like, all her sacrifices and hardwork into making this family intact pays off. Kaya kinaya nyang manatili para sa anak, even though she knew just how her stepson despises her, bilang naging kapalit sa namayapa nitong ina.

Because for Damian, she's always be the home wrecker on his family.

Ilang sandali lang ay may narinig na nyang may nag-uusap sa may sala. Damian must've found Diego waiting for him, sa mga oras na ito ay naroon ang anak sa sala at kagigising lamang. Diego was excitedly waiting for his brother when he'd learned that Damian was going to drop by for a breakfast.

"fratello (brother!)" she heard the excited voice of her son."you are here!" parang hindi parin ito makapaniwala naroon ang kapatid.

One thing for sure is that she could not deprive this family from her son. She knew just how her son wanting so much to meet his father, who's been dead bago palang nya ito naisilang sa mundo. His son never once saw his father, and the love of his brother, Damian was the only thing that connecting him to his father.

Napatuwid sya ng upo nang makita ang dalawang magkakapatid sa may bukana ng komedor. The two were both smiling wide habang magka-akbay na naglakad papasok. Natigil lamang ang kulitan ng dalawa nang magkrus ang tingin nila ng bagong dating.

"Damian" ang tangi nyang nasabi.

Tumango lang ito sa kanya at sa tiyuhin nito. Kailan man ay hindi sya nito kinausap ng matagal. On her end, it's better that way, because she couldn't take the man's coldness either. She didn't played the role of a mother to him either. Damian make sure of it, nang harapan nitong sinabi sa kanya ang bagay na ito.

Damian was always aloft and hard to be around. He made sure that no one's going to get close to him, by being arrogant and ruthless, kaya katulad ng mga tauhan nila, pinangingilagan nya ang unang anak ng asawa. May kung sa ano sa lalaking hindi mya kayang pangalanan. He always had this dark aura on him. Kaya natutunan nyang maging matigas, dahil na din sa anak ng namayapang asawa. Kailangan nyang magkaroon ng matibay na sikmura kapag ito ang naging kaharap, because this man have the ability to scared someone just by its gaze.

Through out her life as one of the member of this clan, she practice herself to act brave and nonchalant, because that's how she cope up with the fears. Sa lahat ng myembro ng pamilyang Mancini, her stepson was the most feared one. Naging kalmado lang ang lahat nang pumasok na ito sa pagsusundalo. People around her told her that it was his late husband's dream for his first son. Kaya siguro tinupad ito ni Damian.
