PABLO
I woke up to this paradise,
like a scene straight out of a dream.
My private beach, that endless sky, and the island view? Unreal.
The resort's all mine, and it's a masterpiece.
My place?
It's huge, sleek with just white and gray, no unnecessary junk. I like things spacious, clean, and nothing that doesn't earn its keep.
Got my own jacuzzi, and that outdoor pool? Feels like it just flows right into the beach. .
Oh, and yeah-my yacht's right there, ready for whenever I feel like hitting the water.
This is real life. For me.
Early in the morning I keep it routine of course,
quick jog, fuel up, shower, then tackle a few things for the company. Even if I'm out here hiding from Dad, I'm not about to let the empire run on autopilot.
I stay connected, talk to a few key people who keep me in the loop, the ones loyal to me, not to him.
"Thanks for the info Ate Leah. You know how those people play dirty tricks to Dad, just keep digging specially to newest projects, alam ko'ng may mali sa finances and budget nyan." Kausap ko kay Ate Leah my most trusted person inside the Empire.
"Copy that, Pau. Pero kelan ka ba babalik? We really need to talk, and marami akong reports from Julian regarding sa mining that I also want you to check."
"I'll be back soon, Ate. For now, gusto ko'ng gumalaw outside the empire at pagbalik ko I'll make sure to get rid of Mr. Kim and his idiot partners." Diin ko sa bawat salita ko. Reading this financial report and how much millions ang na nanakaw nila sa Empire, humanda talaga sila.
"Ok, at least alam ko'ng babalik ka. I also talked to Ms. James in the Marketing department, and got the reports that I will send you later, and that one is a proof of scam they are doing quite a while now.. douches people." Inis ni Ate Leah.
"Thanks, Ate. Keep me posted. Talk to you soon."
"Ok, ingat ka."
Kunting saglit na lang,
If they're thinking they can fool me like Dad, pwes hindi. I will make sure na mapapaalis at mapapakulong ko sila sa ginagawa nila sa Empire.
I completely lost track of time, buried in the paperwork Ate Leah emailed me. Plus, there were too many private meetings I had to attend for the empire.
Mom's been messaging me nonstop too, saying Dad's practically losing his mind looking for me. He even had all our properties and mansions searched.
Like I'd hide out there?
Come on, Dad. He doesn't get it.
I got hungry, so I decided to head over to the other island to grab a bite. I've got caretakers here, but when I'm around, they keep to the quarters or stay out in the garden, looking after my cats, I got ten actually and two living in my penthouse, but now I sent them to the cat's hotel.
I don't like having people around where I can see them, can't move the way I want to. I'm better off working and living alone.
Just the way I like it.
"Hi, Sir, here's your menu."
Marami namang resto bar dito, but my feet got me here again. With the same server.
"Aside from what I ate last night, ano pang masarap dito?" Tanung ko. I'm tired reading for the whole day kaya mas mabuti pang magtanung.
I know she remembered me, sino naman makakalimot sa isang tulad ko? Believe me when I say no one.
