"Hindi mo ba siya ipapakilala sa ama niya?" Yanie asked me. My lips trembled as I answered.

"No! Yanie, Hindi ko gagawin iyun! Ayokong kunin niya ang anak ko. Alam mong mahal na mahal ko si Knox! Ayokong mawala siya sa aking piling..." I said, sitting down because I was nervous. I saw him, I saw the man who's the father of my child.

Earlier today at 12 noon, I was going to the convenience store when I saw the man who had been with me 5 years ago. He was carrying his groceries. Our eyes met, but I knew he didn't recognize me.

I was the only one who recognized him. He didn't care even if we bumped into each other, he wouldn't notice me.

"Riley, Alam mong hinahanap na ni Knox ang tatay niya! Alam mo iyan! Dapat ipakilala mo siya sa ama niya!" she snapped at me, but I didn't nod. Instead of nodding, I just shook my head.

"No Yanie, lalong ayoko. Alam mo ba ang sequences kapag pinakilala ko siya sa ama niya? Do you think na maniniwala iyong lalaki sa akin? Ang dami niyang naka one-night noon Yanie!" Yanie just sighed.

"Hindi ka ba niya kilala?"

I shook my head.
"Hindi."

"Huwag mo nang ipakilala. Total kaya naman nating buhayin iyang anak mo. Mag-aapply ka naman siguro bilang sexretary este secretary!" I rolled my eyes at her.

"Seryuso?!"

"Biro lang! Ito naman... Diba mag-aapply ka bilang secretary ng mga Leonardos?" I nodded.

"Swerte mo, Riley. Dahil mafia iyan, sana nga ay ikaw ang mapili." I didn't say anything.

"Ano ba iyong mafia? I've been always hearing those words." She sat down beside me.

"Hindi ko alam. Basta naririnig ko rin iyan e." I rolled my eyes again. This woman was crazy.

"Nasan si Knox?" I asked.

"Natutulog."

"Kumain na siya?" I stood up and went to the kitchen.

"Yeah, he's already ate. Ikaw nalang ang hindi." I didn't look back. I continued walking to the kitchen. I cooked Pancit canton because it's my favorite.

"Huwag mo nga iyang permenentehin!" Yanie reprimanded me, following me into the kitchen.

"Minsan lang ah?"

"Anong minsan, palagi kaya!"

"Tsk."

I cooked. Yanie went to her room because she said she was going to sleep.

At that moment, I got hungry. I served rice and the dish I was going to cook earlier, sinigang na baboy.

I ate and finished quickly. Knox came out of his room and immediately approached me, rubbing one eye.

"Hey baby," I called him. His slanted eyes and handsome face greeted me. "Good afternoon.."

My 5-year-old son turned to me and gave me a little smile. "I want to poo mom..."

I laughed as he went straight to the bathroom because he said he had to poop. "Take care, Knox! Madulas ang cr at hindi mo pa kayang nandiyan." I told him inside the bathroom.

Sometimes I don't let him be alone in the bathroom because he might get hurt and I wouldn't know.

"Are you done, baby knox?" I asked him. He nodded and spoke.

"Don't called me that, mommy. I am grew." I pinched his cheek and kissed him. I carried him like a baby.

"Ikaw talaga? Why would I, ha? What I want to call you is not your problem, okay? And I am your mother, Knox." He rolled his eyes at me and tried to get out of my arms.

"Mommy," his face fell a little. "I am grew and no need to call me that named." He pouted.

"Ikaw talaga, bakit umaasta kang parang ang laki-laki mo na?" I asked.

"Kasi malaki naman talaga ako." He said.

"Naku ikaw talaga."

"Mommy," I hmmed at him. "Magtatrabaho ka po ba bukas?"

"Why?"

"My teacher told me that why I haven't father?" My heart pounded at his question. What kind of question was that? "Bakit po ba mommy? Everytime that I see in the park kasama ang kanilang ama at nilalambing sila ay naiinggit ako, mommy. Patay na po ba si papa?"

"No... Baby, I mean, hindi patay ang ama mo." I was thinking of what to answer my son, and thankfully someone called me. "Can I answer it?"

He nodded and went straight to his room. "Yes?" I answered the call.

"Ikaw po ba si Riley Anne Generous?" The next line asked me.

"Yes po, why po?" I answered politely.

"Pwede po ba kayong pumunta dito tomorrow in exactly time? Ahmm... Mga 7:30 o 8 AM po, ma'am." The person on the other line said.

"Wait... Why I have to?"

"Di'ba po nag-apply kayo as secretary nuong lunes?" I closed my eyes as I remembered what happened on Monday. Oh yeah, I applied then but I didn't know if I got accepted. But based on what he was saying now, they were asking me to go to their place early tomorrow, it seemed like I was going to be doing this again.

"Ay opo, sorry if I forgot about it." I said quickly.

"Sundin nyo lang po ang aking sinasabi, at matatanggap po kayo as secretary. Salamat po!" The call ended. I thought, it seemed like I wouldn't get accepted in that company. Besides being rich, they had many other employees applying to that company. It was unlikely.

"Naku, Riley! Kung ganiyan ka ay dapat huwag kanang mag-apply bilang secretarya! Mukhang nawawalan kana ng pag-asa e!" Yanie lectured me. I shook my head at her. This was my chance to get a job, so even if I was nervous, I would just go ahead. I wouldn't hesitate anymore. Whatever.

"Tutuloy na ako, ito naman hindi mabiro." I told her. She rolled her eyes at me. I asked her, 'should I just not apply as a secretary there? Maybe I won't get accepted there. And then I'll be rich.' That's what I asked, and then she suddenly got angry.

"'Yan naman pala eh! Lumayas kana, ako na ang bahala sa anak mo. Nakaka-stress ka." I just left the house so I wouldn't hear any more noise. This Yanie was so...

"Good morning ma'am. Welcome to Leonardos Company, what I may can help you po?" The girl at the front desk asked me.

I knew where to go, but I just had a question for her. "Nagsisimula na po ba?"

"Ang alin po?"

"'Yung mag-aapply po."

"Ay opo, kanina pa. Baka kayo ay mahuli kaya pumunta na po kayo." She told me. I smiled and went straight to the office.

When I got to that place, I was immediately stunned. There were so many people applying here? And the line was so long.

"Kanina pa po ba nagsisimula?" I asked the woman sitting down.

"Oo, kanina pa. Pero kahit isa wala pang natatanggap." The woman said. I frowned.

Why haven't they accepted anyone yet? The line is so long, and they haven't accepted anyone? What and who are they accepting here?

They all stood up when a woman came out. The woman was wearing a pencil skirt and was smiling as she walked towards me. I was surprised that she stopped at my own place and faced me.

"The owner of this company named Mr. Leonardos is calling you, Ma'am. Maaari na po kayong pumasok." I was surprised by what she said. What? The owner of this company is calling me?

"Ha?" I answered, confused.

"Sabi ni Mr. Leonardos at pumasok na po kayo sa loob at magsisimula na ang pag-iinterview." She told me. I was about to stay put when she pulled me. She pulled me with all her strength towards the door where she came out.

"Nandito na po kami, Mr." The woman said.

"Leave us." The man who was facing away from me replied coldly.

"Okay po." When I finally got inside, he immediately closed the door. My hands were trembling as I stood here in front of the man who was facing away from me.

I looked at his broad back. When he slowly turned to face me, that's when I was surprised. I took a step back in shock.

"I-ikaw si Leonardos?" My eyes widened as I asked him.

"Yes." He answered briefly.

I stared at his handsome face in shock and fear. This was the man I had a one-night stand with!

"G-good morning," I said nervously.

"Your resume is already here and I want this to ask you." He said in a baritone voice. "Why should I hire you as my secretary?"

He asked. I was sure I would stutter even more if I answered him. What was the answer to that?

"Naka-depende po sa inyo kung tatanggapin nyo ako." I just answered. I was brave then.

"It's that it your answered?" He hissed.

"I don't know what you want, but I want this ask you too..." He hmmed and asked me what I wanted to ask him.

"Do you know me? Or remember me?" His eyebrows met, and he asked me in confusion.

"Do I know you before?" He asked in confusion.

"Never mind." I sighed in relief when I heard his answer. It was good to know he didn't recognize me.

I stared at his face, and he seemed to be thinking deeply.

"Get out." He said coldly.

"Po?"

"I said get out! Naguguluhan na ako, lumabas ka muna."

He turned away from his seat. I just went out, and different words came out of my mouth, sounding strange.

When I got out, I went to the exit to go home and see Knox. I'll leave my resume there at the company I applied to. I'm sure they'll call me when I pass.

"Ayoko" I heard my son Knox complain to his aunt Yanie.

"Yanie," I approached her and asked what happened to her and my son.

"Naku iyang anak mo ayaw na naman kumain gustong maglaro at maglaro lang!" I frowned and faced Knox.

"Baby ano ang gusto mo? Why don't you want to eat?" He just pouted and hugged me.

"Mommy, mahina na po yung heart beat ko, look" he took my hand and guided it to his chest where his heart was.

It was true, it was weak, and I had no idea what was going on.

"Inhale, exhale" I told him. He followed and sat down.

"Mommy masakit dibdib ko"

"Kailangan na natin siyang dalhin sa hospital, Riley"

I was sweating more and just nodded at Yanie.

We immediately took Knox to the hospital and had him checked. The doctor immediately told us the results.

"Doc anong palagay nyo ang sakit ng aking anak?"

I asked him.

"Meron siyang 'heart disease' ma'am at kailangan niyang mag stay muna dito ang itatagal naman ng pag-e stay niya dito ay mga ilang buwan o higit pa. Alam nating malubha na at alam nyo rin kung ano ang mangyayari kapag pinapabayaan nyo pa iyang sakit na iyan. He needs heart donor and bloods. He's blood type is type B." The doctor told me, I was sweating from what I heard.

Why did my son have that disease? What was happening?

"Doc makakaya nyo po bang pagalingin sya?" I asked the doctor.

"Makakaya naman ngunit, kailangan na namin ang heart donor niya at dugo tsaka kung gusto nyong gumaling siya at mapaaga man lang ede gawin na namin ang operasyon sa lalong madaling panahon."

I thought carefully about what the doctor said earlier, but I couldn't figure out where his illness came from. And my blood type is A, and it's hard to find that type of blood!

Oh my God, please guide my child..
