"Salamat, Manong, ah. Don't worry, Manong, may komisyon ka sa akin!" Thumbs up ko. Bahagyang natawa si Manong Max at napailing ito. Hinila na niya agad ang lubid na pinagtalihan sa yate.
Glenn, along with his father and the others, left the VB an hour ago. Saber was eager to go to the island earlier without me because Glenn's mother arrived last night.
Parang nawala ako sa eksena kagabi dahil hindi ko inaasahan ang pagdating ng Mama ni Glenn. She was with her bodyguards and it was obvious that Glenn's father knew she's coming. Hindi niya lang sinabi, dahil siguro ayaw niyang umalis si Glenn ng maaga na kasama ako. Ramdam ko sa kilos ng Papa Glenn kagabi ito. Pinipilit niyang isali ako sa pamilya nila. Pero mailap ang Mama ni Glenn. Halatang ayaw niya sa akin.
They all left this morning using the big yacht.
Last night, I had a quick conversation with Manong Max. I asked him if he knows how to maneuver a yatch and if possible we could use the small one for today. Mabuti na lang at pinayagan siya ni Glenn nang ipaalam niya ito kaninang umaga. Sinabi niya lang na gagamitin niya kung sakaling gusto ko raw mangisda. Pero may kondisyon iyon. Bawal daw kaming lumayo at dapat ay hindi na lalagpas na boundary ng VB.
Glenn was sad when he left me, but I assured him that I would be okay with Manong Max.
Philip arrived in time with two police officers. Hawak ni Philip ang lahat ng legal na dokumento na nagpapatunay na kay Mama ang Islang iyon, at sa akin ito binigay. Nasa huling testamento ito ni Papa.
"Ready?" Philip looked confident as he stood beside me.
"Yeah. I guess so... I have no choice, right?" I looked worried ahead, but today is the day. I can't waste my time.
Judge Caladios has also sent his video documents to be played just in case Emelda tricks them. She's a good actress. She can manipulate anyone she wishes.
"Everything will be fine, Eres." Tapik niya sa balikat ko.
"Alam ko. Binibiro lang naman kita eh." Lakas na tawa ko. Napatingin si Manong sa akin, at sumenyas agad ako sa kanya. Pinaandar na niya ang yate at handa na kami.
"Salamat, Manong ah. Babayaran kita sa lahat ng ito." Umakbay na ako kay Manong, at bahagya siyang napailing.
"If I only knew of who you are, Erykah, then I must have treated you good, anak." Maluha-luhang tugon niya. Bakas sa mukha ni Manong Max ang pait at lungkot.
I pouted and tried to blinked fast. I don't want to cry. I don't want to ruin this moment. Isa lang ang gusto ko ngayon, at iyon ay ang pagbayaran lahat ni Emelda ang ginawa niya sa ama ko.
Excerpt scene ten hours ago:
"A-Ama mo si Benjamin Britts at ina mo si Sunshine Britts?" Namilog ang mga mata ni Manong na parang hindi makapaniwala ito. Kumurap kurap ako.
"Oo, Manong. Bakit? Kilala mo ba ang Papa ko? He was the former president of Blue Diamond Associations way back in the late 90's. Nahinto siya noong namatay si Mama, at nag focus na siya sa negosyo namin." Galak na ngiti ko. Hindi ko inaasahan ito.
"See this, Manong?" Ipinakita ko agad ang suot kong blue diamond pendant. Mas namilog lalo ang mga mata ni Manong Max at namutla siya.
"Mum gave this to me when I was only twelve before she passed away. Ito ang alaala ko sa kanya. Pamilyar ba ito sa 'yo?" I blinked my eyes, hoping that Manong would remember something.
