The Badass Girl in Whitehaven Palace

Epilogue

Giovanni Eliezer Silvestre

I once cared for someone but I never loved someone except for my family. I didn't know the feels of being inlove. But when I saw her. When I saw her innocently walking at the airport, I know she already got my attention.

"This one's mine," she says.

She didn't know I was already staring at her. Little did she know, she already got my attention without doing anything.

Billionaire? She loved this song? What a freaky woman.

And I like a freaky woman like her.

I thought I just admired her on the airport, but fuck! Hindi siya mawala-wala sa isip ko!

She's a criminal for invading my private space. For invading my mind.

I thought I would lose my mind on thinking about her, but when I saw her sexily dancing at the dancefloor, I didn't waste a time. I took the chance to walk near her and talk to her.

"Should we get a room?"

I thought she's just like the other girls--- an easy girl. But I thought wrong when she annoyingly sneered at me.

Dude, she isn't like those easy girls!

Days passed by and I missed her like crazy. Should I go to her condo unit?

I didn't do what I thought to do. But destiny really teased me. I was riding in a bus when I saw her again, getting in in the bus.

My brows met in confusion when I saw she didn't get off the bus. It's already her destination.

I looked outside and saw a guy with a girl, kissing the former on the cheek.

Her boyfriend?

How could a guy hurt a woman like her?

"Miss, pasa'n po kayo?"

Bahagya akong nainis sa naging tanong ng konduktor. Hindi niya ba ramdam na ayaw pang bumaba ng babae?

"Just fucking keep going!"

I went grumpy... and mad. I felt mad for an unknown reason. I felt like I wanna punch the guy on his face for hurting the woman I like.

"I'm sorry, I'm late."

And when I saw her in our mansion, I felt like I am the happiest man alive. I felt like I am the luckiest man alive. I was feeling that, not until I saw how close she was with my brothers.

Fuck! I was fucking jealous! I envy how close they were!

I was hoping I was close with her. Sana ako rin. Sana close din kami.

"Giovanni, when do you plan to fly back to US?"

Before, if Dad will ask me about going back to US, I wouldn't have any doubts of my answer. But now... Why am I hesitating? Why am I hesitating to go back there?

I had lots of opportunities waiting when I went here. Iniwan ko muna at gusto kong bisitahin sila, lalo si Clive. Hindi ko alam na... mahihirapan akong bumalik.

Not when I saw how Clive went mad at me. Not when I saw her in our mansion. Not... when I saw how close they were on my brothers.

"I'll stay, Dad."

Kita ko ang gulat sa mga mata ni Dad Edrick. I know he would have that kind of reaction. Hindi ko siya masisisi. I was already settled back in US. He would really be shocked to see me changing my decision that easily.

I tried to flirt with her. I tried to get close with her. But she's distant at me. She'll get irritated upon seeing me. And I was a bit grumpy at that. How could she be unfair?
