Chapter 28

"Tito Fabfab?"
"Yes?" I asked Amari. They decided to pay me a visit in Sta. Maria she's with Ate Raki. Pumasok naman si Aldie sa school.
"Nothing Tito."
"What is it young lady?" I asked her again. I know she wants to tell me something.
"I was just wondering Tito Fabfab... When will you get me a Tita?" Nasamid ako sinabi n'ya. Ate Raki laughed hard when she saw me.
"Who even taught you that you need a tita?" I asked her.
"Just because," she said and shrugged her shoulders so I pinched her nose.
"Amari anak tumabi kana, Tito Fabfab is working. Sabi mo manonood kalang kaya pinagbigyan kita," Ate Raki reminded her so she immediately left me alone and she played with her tablet kaya itinuloy ko ang ginagawa ko.
"I'll buy some snacks, would you wanna come baby?" Ate Raki asked Amari. She refused but Ate Raki made her promise na hindi s'ya magkukilit.
"Tito Fabfab? Do you really not want to be with Tita Rowena anymore?" She suddenly asked pag-alis ng mommy n'ya.
"Ikaw, tinyempuhan mo talagang umalis ang Mommy mo hah," I commented. Lumapit naman s'ya sa'kin.
"At sino naman ulit nagsabi sa'yo young lady that I want to be with Tita Rowena?"
"You Tito, kapag naoverdose ka sa drinks," she answered kaya di ako nakakibo.
"Mommy told me not to force the topic to you but I was just really curious Tito. You are happy when you see Tita Rowena, the creases on your forehead disappeared so why ayaw mona sakanya po? Clearly you are not happy without her."
"Amari... You don't even know Tita Rowena, how can you say that?"
"I don't know a lot about her, but for sure I know my Tito Fabfab," she smiled at me. Inayos ko nalang ang buhok n'ya at nginitan s'ya. Amari was like my daughter already. She and Aldie... But I'm just so fond of her more because... If we had a child, they're probably about the same age.
My isolation in Sta. Maria helped a lot to control my feelings. My brother and his children would visit me sometimes. Fred would even bring me some clothes. Two weeks passed and I can really see it's gonna be a success. I was signing some papers when Tito Troy suddenly called me. So we met up.
"We didn't see any suspicious person lurking around the area... But you should know something," he said. He gave me the envelope. My eyebrows arched soon as I opened the envelope.
"This is... Fred?"
"Yes, my men always saw him waiting on the street next to her apartment. Lagi n'yang inaantay yang kasama n'ya sa picture," Tito Troy told me.
"That girl with him was Gwyneth Vivienne Santos. They go to the same school, nagpapart time s'yang tutor and babysitter nung bata," he further explained.
"B-but how did they even meet?" I asked Tito Troy. He shrugged his shoulders.
"Maybe you should ask that little brat," he told me. Nagpasalamat na lamang ako pagkatapos ay bumalik sa lab. I will deal with Fred after all of this things. I expected magtatagal pa ang usapan namin ni Tito Troy so I told Reuben na hindi ako kaagad makakabalik, diko na dapat s'ya sinabihan para hindi na nya kinancel yung lakad n'ya.
Pero pagdating ko doon I was startled to see a familiar child sitting on my chair taking a good look sa ginagawa ko nung bago ako umalis.
"What are you doing here kid?" I asked him. He suddenly got up at nagmano pa sa'kin.
