Look in the eyes (Sandro Marcos)

#25

Sandro's pov:

"What can we expect in the coming days that you will be the leader of the entire mafia?" I heard, one of the reporter asked to Natalia.

"Hmm, for now I will enjoy my life habang hindi pa ako ang namumuno. Maybe ang mga pwede niyong asahan kapag ako na ang nasa throne, walang mababago. Siguro dadagdagan ko nalang ang mga nagawa ng grandfather ko" she professionally answered the question.

Mukhang pagod na pagod na siya kakasagot at kanina pa siya nakatayo.

I can see on her face that she's frustrated pero pinipigilan niya lang.

"Lady Natalia, maaari po ba na maraming mamatay kapag kayo na ang namuno?"

"We cannot avoid that someone will die in this industry but the only thing I can guarantee is that the only ones who will die are the bad people who need to leave this world" serious na sagot niya.

"Lady Natalia, sa pag-upo niyo may aasahan po ba ang lahat na pinamumunuan niyo na magkakaroon ng little lady Natalia?" Ano naman tanong yan. She wants to know kung magkakaroon na ba ng family si Natalia.

"HAHA that was a little bit personal but all I can say is that everything will be planned" sabi niya.

Marami pang nagtanong sa kaniya ng kung ano ano. Tinanong din nila kung meron na ba siyang boyfriend or may nakatakda na para sa kaniya.

Si Lolo Rigo ang sumagot ng tanong na yun at sinabi niya na mapagplaplanunan lahat ng tanong nila.

Natapos ang interview nila at ang mga reporters naman ay lumipat sa mga politicians at sa ibang gustong magpainterview.

Unti unting lumalapit sa pwesto namin sina Lolo Rigo at si Natalia.

I can't take my eyes on her and I saw that she's having a eye contact with me.

My heart pounding so fast like I'm in a race, nakaupo lang naman ako dito.

Nakalapit na sila sa table namin. Sinipa ako ni Vinny kaya nabalik ako sa sarili ko.

"Natalia, this is the Marcos family. The President of the Philippines, BongBong Marcos. His wife Liza Marcos. His two sisters, Imee and Irene and these are his sons Sandro, Simon and Vinny. These are his nephews, Imee's son Matthew, Borgy, and Michael and Irene's only son Luis"

Pakilala ni Lolo Rigo sa amin kay Natalia. Isa isa niya kami kinamayan, beneso niya naman ang parents ko at mga aunties ko.

"It's my pleasure to meet the first family of the Philippines. Nice to meet you po"

"Sweet, beautiful, and well mannered" mom whisper but I heard. I smile at what she said.

Umupo sila at nag-usap.

"Sila yung sinasabi ko sayo, mia nipote. Sila yung sinasabi ko na matagal ng kaibigan ng pamilya natin"

Natalia just nodded and smiled. She must be very tired, she is eating Turkey Bolognese.

"Huy kuya, tama na yung pagtitig mo sa kaniya. Kumakain yung tao e" Vinny said while his laughing a little.

Nakakahiya na to. Ilang beses na akong nahuling nakatingin sa kaniya.

"Where did you study, Natalia?" My mom asked her.

Tumingin naman siya kay mom and smile.

"I studied at London, UK po, Madam first lady" she said with her bright smile.

"Ohh really! I'm first son Sandro studied there too. By any chance nakita mo na siya sa London?"

"Hmm, London is a big city po that it's impossible na magmeet kami but I think I already saw him po" magalang na sabi niya kay mom and biglang tumingin siya sa akin.

My eyes get winded because of the sudden eye contact we have.

"Saan mo naman siya nakita, hija?"

"Hmm, I don't remember po but I think I saw him in one of the club there." Sabi niya and she look at me again and smirk.

WTF! Did she...did she remembered?

"Please settle to your respective seats" biglang sabi ng mc kaya naman napatingin kaming lahat sa may stage.

"Before this night become wild, please let's hear the simple message of Princess Mina Celest Cardova, Lady Natalia's cousin" nagpalakpakan ang lahat at umakyat sa stage si Mina.

It seems that her drunkenness is worse than before.

"Ehem...Hi everyone!" Ang energetic naman niya masiyado.

"HAHAHAHAHA sorry sorry I'm drunk right now but I can manage naman" tawa niya at nagbulungan naman ang mga tao.

"Bakit nagpakalasing ang babaeng yun!" Sabi ni Natalia at inis na nakatingin kay Mina.

"Now is a special day for all of us. Dumating na sa wakas ang pinakapaborito ng lahat, my cousin! Hi, cuz!" Sabi niya at kumaway pa sa direction namin.

"I don't know what to say, siguro ang masasabi ko nalang ay mag-enjoy tayong lahat sa gabing ito because I know...I know after this it will be a nightmare to all of us...bakit? HAHAHA bumalik na kasi yung magpapahirap sa ating lahat. The devil is back, my cousin is back! Cuz, tandaan mo I'm always here kahit na hindi tayo magkasundo-sundo"

I look at Natalia and she shake her head and massage her temple like she's stress to her cousin.
