The Whisper of Memories (Dela Costa series #1)

Waves 22

Naiwan kami ni Celeste sa conference room, sinenyasan ko si Lincoln na susunod ako sa kanya. I feel that Celeste has something to say to me, gusto kong marinig iyon gayong nandito pa ako.

She was wearing a rusty rose shoulder pad ruched split hem dress, her long hair was on bun adding more highlight to her well defined cheekbones.

Tumayo ito at eleganteng naglakad patungo sa aking harap. I didn't look at her and stood up instead, dahil dating modelo ito ay mas matangkad ito kukumpara sakin.

She half smiled and lend her right hand. " I'm Celeste Almeida, i supposed you know that Damon was my ex fiancee? " aniya. Stating that i already know that because everybody knows?

I didn't nod or shook. " You're a brazilian model. That's what i know about you. " I answered her honestly.

I can sense irritation in her eyes but she managed to smile. " So you're dating Damon now? You were once a rumored girlfriend of Lincoln Tejero. " Ngiting sabi nito.

Ano ba gusto niyang palabasin? That i'm magneting those boys? Oh please!

" If that's what your source is telling you about. " Sabi ko without giving her direct answers.

Magsasalita pa lang sana ito nang bumukas ang pintuan ng conference room. Tumambad duon si Damon na mukhang ngayon lang namalayan na di niya ako kasabay.

" Soul, let's go. " He said in a low tone.

Nilingon ko si Celeste. Her eyes were full of digust. Binigyan ako nito ng maikling ngiti kahit alam kong walang bahid ng katotohanan iyon.

Naglakad ako patungo kay Damon, he opened the door widely so i can walk first. Nang matagumpay niyang naisara ay sabay kaming naglakad nito patungo sa opisina.

" Do you want to eat something? Or do you want to go somewhere? " Anito na parang nagkaroon bigla ng free time.

Ngumuso ako at pinagsiklop ang mga daliri. " I want to go somewhere.. " i murmured. Natigilan ito sa pag lalakad kaya natigil rin ako.

I can sense that he was curious. I never suggested him a place before. Wala naman kasi akong alam na magagarbong pasyalan kaya pag lumalabas kami siya na ang nag de-desisyon.

" Where is that? "

Malapad akong ngumiti kahit malabo subukan ko pa rin. " Dela costa. "

He opened his mouth a little bit like he was surprised. Alam ko, i've already said that i will never come back to that place again. Pero ngayon na wala na ang senyora, parang nawala na ang nakatarak na kung ano man sa dibdib ko.

" Do you really want to visit? I won't push you. " Anito habang tinitimbang ang ekspresyon ko.

I nodded. " It's almost been 6 years since my last visit. I want to see what changed there. I want to see the waves and sea.. also ourland that you bought." nananabik na sabi ko.

He bit his lip to hide his amusement grin. Tumango ito. " Okay, we will do that. I just need to finish some business first. " anito sa mababang tono.

After that meeting we meet some of his team. Anila'y huwag daw papakampante na ngayon nakakulong ang senyora. She will do everything to get out of the jail immediately. Sinabi ko kay Damon na huwag na ipang abot sa korte ngunit hindi ata papayag ang mga panibagong board of directors kung palalampasin na lang ito.

I can sense that he was stressed in the whole conversation. Napagtanto ko lamang na gagawa pa rin ng paraan si Senyora para tuluyan kaming masira ng anak niya.
