Look in the eyes (Sandro Marcos)

#23

Sandro's pov:

"Please welcome, Lady Natalia Zhavira Cardova the heir of Cardova clan and will be the next leader of all mafia's" pagkasabing pagkasabi nung mc nagsitayun ang lahat kaya naman tumayo na rin kami.

All cameras are on her, all eyes are on her beauty.

While looking at her, my heart beat faster. Shit! What is this!? Why my heart pounding this fast!?

Napakaganda niya sa gown niya, bagay na bagay sa kaniya.

I couldn't take my eyes off her face, especially her lips with a beautiful smile.

"Kuya, hinay-hinay lang sa pagtitig baka mahalata ka" Vinny said why laughing a little.

Tumingin ako sa kaniya and I glare at him. Ang lakas talaga mang-asar nitong lalaking to.

Naglakad siya papunta sa harap. Napadaan siya sa table namin and that's my signal para makita ang mukha niya ng mas malapit.

She's so stunning, she killed it.

Naamoy ko yung pabango niya nung dumaan siya sa table namin.

Lumapit si Lolo Rigo sa kaniya at may sinabi dito.

"This welcoming party will be seen as a gathering of different people. It is a sign of a happy, joyful, and unity of all. Nandito tayong lahat para makilala ang tagapagmana at makilala ang ibat ibang tao. Sa gabing ito ay walang gulong magaganap at puro kasiyahan lamang. During these times I hope you will be happy and enjoy yourself" the mc said.

Kahit na nakaupo na ay hindi ko parin matanggal ang tingin ko sa kaniya. She's so beautiful that I can't take my eyes on her.

"May I call on Master Amerigo Antonio Cardova to have a little speech"

Umakyat sa stage si Lolo Rigo at tumayo kami for respect and we clap our hands.

"Uhm... I'm happy. I am happy because my granddaughter Natalia has returned to the Philippines. I lived in this world full of destructions. I lived that I should think about my safety. Ngayon na nasa paligid ko ang aking mga apo na sina Natalia at Mina, hindi ako magdadalawang isip na pumatay para lang sa kaligtasan nila. I know what I said was mean but I know that the rest of you understand what I said."

".... Natalia...I love you mia nipote. You are my treasure. Mawala na ang lahat sa akin wag lang kayong dalawa ni Mina. Handa akong gumawa ng gyera masabi ko lang na ayos at masaya kayong mga apo ko."

"...We are all here to have fun, mingle, meet and enjoy. Gaya ng sinabi ng mc, sa gabing ito ay walang gulong magaganap at puro kasiyahan lamang. During these times I hope you will be happy and enjoy yourself"

Natalia is so lucky to have a grandfather like him. He can kill just for the happiness of his granddaughter.

"Thank you for the beautiful message, Master Amerigo Antonio Cardova. Now, may I call on Lady Natalia Zhavira Cardova to have her speech"

When her name was called, she seemed surprised and didn't expect that she also had to give a speech.

Tumayo siya at lahat kami ay nagsitayuan at nagpalakpakan.

"Ehem... First of all, I would like to thank my Nonno for organizing this welcoming party even though I didn't ask for it. Second, I want to say thank you for coming tonight even though you have a lot of work, thank you for having a time. Third, I want to thank all the staff who worked hard and tired to make everything right."

"... Actually hindi ko naman na kailangan ang ganitong welcoming party but since my grandfather took care of it, I didn't refuse. Kung pag-uusapan ang party, I don't want it to be like this. I want it to be wild but because this is a formal party it should be a formal."

"...This is the first time you have seen me since I left the Philippines. I don't know what you think of me but all I can say is...don't do something that will hurt you too."

Sa sinabi niyang yun ay parang nagbibigay siya ng threat. She's cool. I smile at what I thought.

"Kuya, nakatingin siya sayo" Vinny said and tumingin ako sa harap and he is right.

Natalia's sharp fox eyes are now looking at me! Biglang bumilis yung tibok ng puso ko.

"For my final speech, I want to say that I hope you enjoy tonight" huling speech niya at bumaba na sa stage.

Tumayo kami ulit at pumalakpak sa kaniya.

Nakilala kaya niya ako? Naaalala niya kaya yung paglalandi ko sa kaniya?
