The Badass Girl in Whitehaven Palace

Chapter 23

I was here in the living room, waiting for Giovanni. Sinabi niya sa 'kin kahapon na sabay daw kaming pupunta sa school dahil kung hindi ay i-a-announce niya sa buong school na gusto niya ako.

Umirap ako. Nangblackmail pa ang gago. Gusto niya yatang mamatay ako, e.

Wala naman akong pakialam sa putanginang blackmail niya pero dahil birthday pala niya ay pumayag na ako.

Napatingala ako nang makarinig ng tunog sa itaas. I thought it was Giovanni but it was Mrs. Silvestre. Umiwas ako ng tingin at nanatiling nakaupo sa sofa.

"So you're a worker here?"

Napapatayo ako. "Yes, Ma'am."

Tumingin siya sa suot ko bago nagsalita. "What's your work?"

"Personal assistant---"

"Are you close with him?"

Him? Who the fuck is she talking about?

"Plan a vacation strategy and give it to me. I want it by the end of the day."

Akmang magsasalita na ako nang tumalikod na siya. Bumuntong-hininga nalang ako.

"Hija..."

Kaagad akong napalingon sa taong nagsalita. It was Mr. Silvestre.

He smiled at me. "Please make it a memorable one for them. Consider their tastes, too."

Tumango ako. "Noted, Mr. Silvestre."

Nang makaalis siya ay siya namang pagbaba ni Giovanni. Napapasagitsit ako.

"Bakit ang tagal mo?"

Ngumisi siya sa akin. "Did I keep you waiting, love?"

"Love, amputa."

Napatawa lang siya sa sinabi ko. He was now driving while I was on his back. I was thinking of a great vacation plan that would be memorable enough for them.

"What's your dream vacation?" biglaang tanong ko, pasimpleng kinukuha ang opinyon niya.

"Why are you asking?"

I sneered. I can sense he was now smirking at me.

"Do you plan on going on a vacation with me?"

Napakahambog! Assuming!

"If I do, would you come with me?" I say naughtily, riding with his naughty taut.

He chuckled. "I would love to." He smiled. "It's my pleasure to be with the woman I like."

Napapairap ako sa naging banat niya. Buti nalang at hindi ako nadadala riyan.

"Ano nga ang dream vacation mo..." pangungulit ko.

He chuckled. "I don't have any."

"What?" gulantang na saad ko. "You're impossible!"

He chuckled. "What? Do we have this rule that all of us should have a dream vacation?"

Napapairap ako sa ere. "There's none. But... are you still a human? Even a badass like me..." I trailed off, smirking. "I also have a dream vacation."

"Then what would be your dream vacation would be my dream vacation."

"What?"

"What?" He says, chuckling. "I like you. It's possible I'll like your dream vacation. I'm sure I would also like that--- whatever your dream vacation is."

I just made a face. Mabuti at hindi ako marupok.

Natahimik kami sandali. Mahina lang na nagpapatakbo si Giovanni lalo at nakaangkas ako. He promised me he would drive slowly.
