CHAPTER 11



"TANGINA LUCIFERRO!" sigaw ko kay Lucifer. Isang demonyo talaga! Walang awa! Halos mapaos o mabaliw ako kakatanong sa kaniya kung nasan ang pamilya ko, tinago ng mokong!

"Huminahon ka nga, Darcker!" Sigaw sa akin ni Clive. Pati narin 'tong gagu na ito e! Pagkatapos nyang mahanap ang babaeng nawawala sa kaniya payapa na ang buhay e ako? Paano ako?

Tangina!

"Sandro! Parang awa mo na?! Kagaya ng kay Clive nawawala ang asawa at anak ko, please pwede mo bang hanapin sila?" Umiling si Sandro.

"May babae kang ginalaw at binahay, Darcker tapos gagawin mo pa ang lahat para makuha ang babaeng pinakawalan mo? Tsk, baliw kana." Yeshua said.

Hindi ko sinasadya... I'm so sorry, Riley..

3 years na silang nawawala. Halos mabaliw ako, parang awa nyo na, ibalik nyo na sila!

"Ako pa sayo, Darcker? Naghahanap na ako ng iba. Hindi mo na makikita ang pamilya mo kapag si Lucifer na ang nagtago." Napatingin ako kay Lucifer. Wala siyang emosyon o pakealam kung ano man ang gawin ko.

May asawa at anak na rin siya pero bakit ayaw niyang sabihin sakin kung nasan si Riley at ang nag iisang anak kong si Knox? Tangina mahal na mahal ko sila e!

"Lucifer bud! Ito na hihingi na ako ng tawad sa mga kasalanan ko. Parang awa mo na, nasaan sila ngayon?" Lumuhod ako ngunit pinatayo ako ng mga kaibigan ko pero hindi ako nagpatinag.

"Luci! Mahal na mahal ko sila, parang awa mo na."

"Mahal mo?!" Kinwelyuhan niya ako at galit na galit na tinitigan. "Mahal mo o ginamit mo lang?!! Iyan ba ang pagmamahal, Darcker? Pagkatapos ng Hindi nyo pagkakaunawaan e lalayo ka nalang at maghahanap ng iba, ha? Wala kang kwenta!"

I was hurting his words. Napayuko at napaluha sa mga sinabi niya.

"Tangina! Ako ang nag-alaga sa kanila doon—awang awa ako sa kanila, Darcker! Tapos ikaw dito? Nagpapakasarap?! Ha? Sabihin mo nga kung mahal ba talaga ang tawag dyan?!" Sumigaw siya at napahagulgol nalang ako ng iyak.

"Halos mamatay ang anak mo, Darcker! He needs your bloods! But you? You ran away from them! Iniwan mo at nagpapakasarap ka sa mga babae mo! Wala kang kwenta!"

Nang marinig ko ang sinabi niya kanina ay napatingin sa kaniya at ako naman ang humawak sa kaniyang kwelyo.

"Nasaan sila, ha?! Nasaan?! Tangina, 3 years akong naghanap sa kanila, Lucifer! Hindi mo paba iyun matatawag na pagmamahal?!!" Sigaw ko at galit na galit.

"Tama na yan, Lucifer. Sabihin mo na sa kaniya."

Umiling si Lucifer.

"Payapa na ang buhay ni Riley doon at wala na rin syang balak na balikan itong gagu na ito." Hinawi niya ng malakas ang aking kamay na nasa kwelyo niya at aalis na sana nang lumuhod at magmakaawa ako.

"Please give me more second chance, Luci... We're friends right? Bakit ayaw mong ibigay iyun?" Tanong ko kay Luci.

"Because you're not better to be with her. Ayusin mo muna ang sarili mo bago ka magpakita kay, Riley."

Umalis siya at nilagpasan nya lang ako. Babaguhin? Kailan pa ako maghihintay?

"Darcker, if you want to be with her gawin mo ang inuutos ni Luci, ibibigay niya rin kapag nakitaan ka niya ng pagbabago." Sandro commented.

"How?" I said and cried.

"Paghirapan mo, huwag kang magsabi ng how how jan, ano 'yan? How how di karabaw?" Tumawa pa si Clive.

Tinignan ko sya ng masama.
"Hindi ako nagbibiro, Clive. Huwag kang magpatawa." Sabi ko at dahan dahan na tumayo para umuwi.

Kailangan ko talagang baguhin ang sarili ko bago magpakita kay Riley, this is what she wants right? Then I'll do this for her.

"Good luck. I'll give you the exactly place of Riley if magbabago ka talaga, Darcker." He tapped my shoulder and pass away from me.

"THE CEO of Generous Corporation, Ms. Riley Anne Generous!" The host called my name, and I just smiled at all the people in front of me. They are also CEOs and employees from my company. Yes, I now have my own company, and it's all thanks to my hard work.

I studied all the courses I wanted, so I passed the exams and board. Then I applied my knowledge and skills, and became a CEO. The process was quick. Just three years ago, Knox and I were living in a small condo, but now look, I own my own company and have employees.

"Thank you to everyone out there, and especially to my employees, for not giving up on me. You all mean so much to me. I never thought you'd all stay by my side, but you did, and I'm so grateful." All the people in front of me clapped their hands, and I could see their smiles.

"You know, all of this is what I want – to become a professional and also a CEO. But look, here I am, standing before you, saying what I need to say and what I want to say to all of you. And once again, thank you very much!" I gave them a big smile before taking my seat.

"Your Madam, Riley, was so nice and beautiful, guys!" Someone in the front clapped loudly and shouted.

"Ma'am Riley, if you need to find a husband, I'm here waving at you and ready to marry you!" The guy in the back said.

"Oh, thank you, but I don't want to get married because there's someone else I've been waiting for for three years." I smiled sweetly.

The ceremony ended, and I felt a bit tired. Knox greeted me with a smile on his face.

"Mommy!" He was bigger now than before.

"Baby Knox!" He pouted and glared at me.

"Mommy, don't call me baby! I am big now! I'm big!" He jumped up and down in annoyance, and I laughed at his reaction.

I was used to calling him that when I came home from work.

"Mommy's used to it, what can you do?" I said, cuddling him and letting him climb on me. I wasn't standing up, I was on the sofa.

"But I am bigger now than before. Look..." He struggled to get down and spun around. "See how different I am now from before?"

I just nodded.

"Knox, no matter what happens, you're still my baby. Why don't you want me to call you that? Yes, you're bigger now, but Mommy's used to it." I closed my eyes, and he leaned closer to my face.

"Then I'm sorry, Mommy, I'm sorry!" His little lips kissed my cheeks and forehead. "Sorry, Mommy, mwah! Do you want a massage, Mom?"

I nodded. "Yes, here, honey," I pointed to the part of my head and body that was sore. "Here too, baby, it really hurts."

"Okay just relax mommy." He softly said. And I just close my eyes and feel his doing right now to me.

"Mommy," he call me and I hmmed.

"Can I be with my friends, tomorrow?" Napadilat ako dahil sa sinabi niya.

"Who's that friend?" I ask.

"Ahmm.. Classmate, my friend."

"Ilan ba silang lahat?" Tanong ko.

"They are 6"

Umiling ako. No, Hindi pwede ayuko.

"Hindi pwede, Knox." Sabi ko at pumikit muli.

"Mommy, mababait sila at I am already 9 na." Umiling ako

"Hindi pwede, Knox If I say no? It's no. Alam mong delikado pa dito sa lugar na ginagalawan natin. You're just 9 years old." He pouted. Nandyan nanaman siya.

"Knox, yung kalagayan mo lang ang inaalala ko." Sabi ko ng mahinahon at hinawakan ang dalawa niyang kamay.

"Pero... Sa park lang naman e."

Napabuntong hininga nalang ako.

"Sege na nga, but in the park lang ha? Don't go so far, Alam mo na ang mangyayari if you do it." Lumiwanag ang kaniyang mukha dahil sa narinig.

"Yes! I will not go so far, Mommy. I should follow you because you are my mommy, and I'm just your son, so I will follow you." Knox was a respectful child, so I never regretted anything about him.

I raised him well, so he was a respectful and innocent child. That's why I didn't let him bond with his friends because I didn't want him to pick up their attitude of not caring about others. It's like that here in Singapore. They don't know if they're hurting others or not, they just do what they want.
