Chasing After The Storm | D'heir Series 2

Chapter 33

"Mommy, I'm really really excited to go to school today." 

I'm brushing my daughter's hair, tying it neatly to pigtails, and putting pink ribbons on each tail. She looked so cute with her neat hairstyle and mini uniform. Lalo na siguro kapag sinuot niya na ang unicorn bag na siya din ang pumili. 

"I'm so excited to show my friends my unicorn bag! It's so cute, right mommy?" She asked while turning and making cute poses so I giggled and hugged her tightly. 

"Yes, and you make it even cuter," I said, showering her face with kisses. 

"Ahh mommy stop!" She was laughing and trying to push me with her small hands. 

"Love, I know you're having a great time but it's almost 8:00 we need to go." 

Biglang pumasok si Chase sa kwarto ni Cheysela. He looked so handsome on his casual beige pants and tucked in blue polo shirt. Nung una ay akala ko ako ang kausap neto pero nakatingin ito sa anak namin. Agad akong tumingin sa baba dahil hindi ko alam kung paano ko ba siya kakausapin pagkatapos noon. 

Act normal dapat diba? 

"Daddy! Carry me please!" Pakiusap ni Cheysela and he gladly carried our daughter on his arms.

He was smiling and when he looked at me, his smile turned smaller. A more casual one. I was slightly dissapointed but I remember that we are civil now. No more hard or soft feelings. I stood up and even fixed my clothes and my sling bag because I was quite concious from the way he looked. 

"Let's go?" He asked at tumango nalang ako. Kung dati ay hihintayin pa ako nito ngayon ay nauna na silang dalawa. 

Ilinagay niya sa Cheysela sa likod at nakita kong ilinagay nito ang seat belt bago saraduhan ang pinto. Umatras ako ng kaunti para makadaan siya at umikot papunta sa driver's seat. Hindi ko tuloy alam kung saan ako sasakay kaya mas pinili ko nalang sumakay katabi ng anak ko. 

"Mom, why did you seat here? Diba po mommy should always sit besides daddy?" Tanong ni Cheysela. Tumingin din si Chase sa rear view mirror bago mag salita.

"You can sit here, infront, Isabella."

Agad akong napatingin sa anak ko at kita kong tumatango ito at nakangiti. Kaya walang sabi akong bumaba ng kotse at lumipat sa unahan. Inayos ko din ang setbelt ko at nag simula nang mag maneho si Chase.

Sa buong byahe, si Cheysela lang ang nag sasalita sa amin. Okay lang naman sa akin, wala akong kahit na anong reklamo. Pero hindi ko mapigilang manibago. Pero bakit pa nga ba maninibago eh ito yung pagbabago na ginusto ko?

"Bye baby! Ingat ko and be a good girl sa school okay?" Nakangiting sabi ko dito habang bumababa na ito at hawak ng teacher.

"Yes po mommy! Bye po! Bye daddy! I love you!" She said as she kissed our cheeks and waved her little hands at sumama na sa guro nito.

Pagkatapos noon ay nag simula na ding mag drive si Chase ulit.

"May pupuntahan ka pa ba?" He asked in a casual tone.

"Uh oo, kahit ibaba mo nalang ako sa may mall sa unahan. Kikitain ko lang kaibigan ko." Sabi ko rito, hindi na ito umimik at pinag patuloy nalang ang pag maneho.

Did I mention before that he looks so hot while driving?

Oh god, why am I even thinking about that. Nang makarating sa mall, akala ko ay ako lang ang bababa pero nagulat ako ng pumarada siya at bumaba din kasama ko.

He saw that I was looking at him with a confused face kaya sinagot niya na ako kahit hindi pa nag tatanong.

"I'll be having my meeting here too."
