Damon's point of view
" You will be marrying Chantal Montevilla, discussion is over. " The senyora said, she then stand up and exit the library room.
I was left alone in the room, wondering if what kind of excuse i'll make again to stop this marriage.
Yes, at the age of 19 i have still no power to decide on my own. They always used the company as an excuse for them to decide for me, even my own marriage.
" I announce you the engagement between the heiress of Mon Pretroleum Inc, Chantal Montevilla and the success of LGOC, Damon Lardizabal. " The senyora announced happily.
Aries, one of my acquiantances tapped me on my back. Napailing na lang ako at walang nagawa kundi tumayo at tumungo sa entablado.
Chantal, the woman i'm engaged with standing beside my mother happily. I unwillingly went to them, ramdam ko ang pag iinit ko sa galit pero wala akong magawa kundi mag sunod sunuran sa mga ito.
I have been titled as a good and obedient child to our family, since Odette had another plans for her future. I don't want her to waste that kind of talent of hers, dibale na ako ang mag sakripisyo sa pamilyang to. Huwag lang siya.
" Yeah, i know it was her. Hindi ako pwedeng mag-kamali. If so, try to confront her and see how she'll react. " ani ng pinsan kong si Shiloh sa kabilang tawag.
Napangisi ako duon, who would've thought that she will made it easier for me to break this engagement? It's has been 5 fucking years and i'm already sick of it.
" Damon, please let's fix this.. we're going to get married next month. Ganito pa rin ang tungo natin sa isa't isa! " Chantal said with tears in her eyes.
Wala akong maipakitang emosyon sa dalaga, i can't blame her if she still want to go have fun and i don't even care. I just want to use this as an excuse to break up with her.
While Chantal is shouting her heart out, i saw a unfamiliar eyes behind the tree where we at. Hindi agad ito nag alis ng tingin dahilan para manatili din ang mata ko rito, i can hear Chantal's sobbing pero hindi ko pinansin iyon.
" Are you listening? Our company will be a big asset to yours! Paniguradong mababaliw si Senyora kapag kinansel mo ang kasal natin! " She finally caught my attention.
Iritado ko itong binalingan, is she saying that their company was bigger than us? Kanya na yung kompanya niya. She should have known that the reason why we are getting married because my mother doesn't want a woman who doesn't belong to a wealthy family.
Sa rindi ko ay tumungo ako duon sa babae at pwersahan siyang dinala sa harap ni Chantal. I look at her from head to foot, she's a little bit tall and curvy.. mahaba ang kulay kayumanggi nitong buhok. She also had an expressive almond brown eyes.
Sa katawan palang ay alam ko na, she's a fucking minor. Pero huli na dahil kinaladkad ko na siya rito.
Damn, i just used that girl as an excuse for Chantal to stop bothering me. Hindi pa din pala gumana dahil kinabukasan ay panay din pa din ang text at tawag nito!
" I don't want her. " Matigas na sabi ko sa aking mga magulang. My mother stared at me like a was a complicated puzzle to solve.
" Then, tell me who do you want? You can't just go to some cheap bars and enjoy girls who you'll meet there! " Singhal nito sakin.
Nakita ko naman ang pag dalo ni papa sa kanyang asawa, i tilted my head. I shouldn't have come here in Manila.
I went back to Dela Costa after that conversation, i really can't be with her in a same room. I feel suffocated and stress, duon na ako sa probinsya muna pansamantala. Tutal wala naman ang senyor duon.
