Clio













What we discussed yesterday got to Zedric, he wasn't happy about. Their plane just landed in Russia but he immediately asked his pilot if he could get on the plane again so he could travel back to the Philippines, everyone there tried their best to change his mind. One of his staff called Zilas so he could calm his grandfather, the staff explained everything to us. The plane, the way he shouted at the pilot for refusing to travel back, and the urgent business he needs to attend to.












It was all in English and on speaker so I heard them struggling with a lot of shouting at the other line.















“ Dedushka, ty dolzhen slushat' svoikh sotrudnikov. Vy uslozhnyayete im zhizn'. ” Oh, Zilas spoke in Russian. I can't understand a single word that came out of his mouth.

(A/N: " Grandaddy, you should listen to your staff. You're giving them a hard time. " Ako na bahala sa translation kasi hindi nakaka intindi si Clio.)













“ YA prosto ne mogu ostavit' eto bez vnimaniya, klio takoy teplyy i dobryy molodoy paren'. Alasteru pridetsya stolknut'sya s posledstviyami svoikh deystviy, ya vozvrashchayus' na Filippiny i razberus' s nim. ” Their accent makes everything sound so darn serious, it's the thick accent that gives them such intimidating vibes.



( Translation: I just can't let this go unnoticed, Clio is such a warm and kind young guy. Alastair will have to face the consequences of his actions, I will return to the Philippines and deal with him. )













I saw Zilas massage his temple using one of his hands, ano ba kasi pinag uusapan nila? Bakit napaka stress ata ni Zilas. Baka sumakit ulo nito kaka isip.















“On zaplatit za sodeyannoye, no seychas tebe nuzhno byt' ryadom, u tebya yest' chto rasstavit' prioritety. ” Zilas told his grandfather which was followed by a heavy sigh on the other line. Zedric sounds annoyed.









( translation: He will pay for what he did, but now you need to be there, you have things to prioritize.)
















“ YA perestanu podderzhivat' ikh kompaniyu, on ne zasluzhivayet moyey podderzhki. ” I heard Zedric from the other line.










( translation: I will stop supporting their company, he doesn't deserve my support.)















Why am I eavesdropping on them? I couldn't understand their language. There's no point, wala akong masasagap.















I'm still at home, today is sunday which means there's no classes nor work. Calliope is resting her head on Zilas' thigh as she watches her favorite show on the tv right in front of the bed. To tell you the truth, she has her own television in her room pero sabi niya mas better daw ang quality dito kaya dito siya nanonood.
















“ Calliope, do you want to talk to grandaddy Zedric? ” Tanong ni Zilas sa anak ko, napatingin sa kaniya si Calliope at tumango. She took the phone from him.













“ Grandada!! Kak vy? ” Calliope exclaimed.


(translation: Grandaddy, how are you?)
















They talk for about 30 minutes before ending the call for an urgent matter, it was the three of us again. Watching television like a normal family does.
















“ Zilas, ” I called out to him when my daughter decided to leave the room and get something downstairs.











“ Hmm? ”










“ Puwedi bang hindi na natin paki-alaman si Alastair at Elodie? Alam kung mali ang ginawa nila pero ayokong maungkat ang nakaraan, ayokong madamay kayo. Let's live our lives without them, let's just forget what Elodie did. Matagal na 'yun eh, please. ” Both Alastair and Zilas are influential people, alam kung lalaki ang issue kapag na involved na sila. I don't want that.















“ Clio, we can't tolerate what they did. You suffered from them and you'll just forget about it? Don't do this to yourself. We'll file a lawsuit if necessary. ” He sounds so serious that it scares me, ayoko ng away. Ayaw kung palakihin ang issue. I want to bury everything in the past.











“ Zilas naman eh, ayaw ko sabing ungkatin ang nakaraan. Please, huwag na natin palakihin ang nangyari. Please. ” I don't want to cause chaos and ruin his name, ayaw kung magkagulo. Ayaw kung masira ang career niya. Ayaw kung masangkot siya sa ganito.














“ Please... Zilas, huwag na. Please..”  Paki usap ko.














Nakatingin lang siya sa akin na parang hindi ako maintindihan, “why? Why are you letting her off the hook? ”
















“ Zilas, ayaw ko ng away. Masaya na ako sa katahimikang mayroon ako ngayon, ayaw kung sirain 'yun dahil lang sa ginawa ni Elodie sa akin noon. Zilas, ngayon lang ako naging masaya. Please, huwag na natin 'tong palakihin. Tell your parents na huwag na silang maki alam, ayaw kung madamay kayo. Please. T'saka matagal nanaman 'yun, hindi na ata applicable 'yun para mag file tayo ng lawsuit. ” I pleaded, he looked at me and slowly nodded his head like he finally agreed to my request. Nakangiti ako at hinalikan siya sa labi, I don't want to cause chaos. Ayaw ko.















“ Clio, you're a precious person to me. I love you so much that it hurts me just thinking how much you've shed tears for what she did, it hurts me knowing you've suffered in her hands. I can't keep a blind eye, you were mistreated... Clio, it's not okay to forget all the pain she caused you. Please, rethink your decision. ” I just want Zilas and Calliope in my life. Gusto kung mabuhay ng masaya, gusto kung mag tuloy tuloy na ang ganitong relasyon namin. Ayaw kung gawing issue ang nangyari noon. Ibaon nalang natin 'yun sa limot.















“ I want to bury everything in the past Zilas, please. Ayaw ko ng gulo. Let's live happily with Calliope, let's get married, let's enjoy our lives. Please. ” I was begging him, ayaw ko ng away. Kapag nadamay siya malaking gulo ang mangyayari, ubosan ng pera ang kahihinatnan ng gulong 'to.













“ Clio.... Fine— fine.. Yeah, let's do that. Let's live happily, the three of us. ” Finally! He finally agreed with me. Napaka laki ng ngiti ko, I even kissed the back of his hand for how happy I was that he finally agreed with me. Ayaw ko ng ungkatin ang mga nangyari. Masyadong masakit. Masyadong maraming nangyari ng mga panahong 'yun, ayaw ko ng balikan pa ang mga pangyayaring 'yun.












“ Ewww don't be lovey-dovey! I don't want a sibling, ” napatingin kami kay Calliope na biglang nagsalita. She was carrying a plate with leftover pancakes from yesterday. Pumagitna agad siya sa amin.















“ Mommy, I'm your only baby. Okay? ” Tumingin siya kay Zilas, she was marking her spot in his life.
















“ Of course you are, you'll always be mommy's little darling princess. ” Sagot ni Zilas habang nakangiti.












“ It'll always be mommy, papa, and Calliope against the world. ” He added looking at me in the eyes.













“ You'll always have me. ” He mouthed at me before kissing Calliope on her forehead.
