Taming Mr. Player (Completed)

"Good morning, princess. Breakfast is ready." My dad greeted me with a smile and motioned me to have a seat.

"Morning, dad." I kissed him on his cheeks and then sat down.

"Where were you last night?" My brother asked me.

"J-just with a friend?" I answered with hesitation remembering what happened last night.

"And who is that friend of yours?" He threw another question. Geez. This is why I don't want to see my brother. He's sweet and nice but his being "too over-protective" is annoying.

"Darwin, save the interrogations later. Please?" My mom interrupted.

"Yeah. Just save it for later. We're in front of the meals. Show some respect. Besides, we're going to the Fernandez Residence today so you better hurry up." Dad supported mom's interruption. I smiled and continued to eat.

"I'm not coming with you. That Francis needs to pay for what he did." Napatigil ako sa pag kain ko. Yung kutsara, nasa bibig ko pa tapos nakatingin ako kay kuya. "You think I don't know what happened yesterday? He broke up with you." Sabi ni kuya habang ganun pa din ang posisyon ko. Napansin ata ako ni mom so hinawakan nya yung kamay ko na nakahawak sa kutsara at binaba ito.

"Stop it, Kuya. That's fine."

"That's fine? He cheated on you!"

"No, he didn't. He broke up with me." I defended. I don't know why I am doing this but I know Francis doesn't deserve what my brother is about to do.

"Yeah, he broke up with you to be with his professor. Tarantado pala yang Francis na yan eh!" He said with gritted teeth. Halatang galit si kuya. Ano ba yan. Napatingin pa tuloy sila dad and mom sa sinabi ni kuya at halatang gulat sila. I just bowed down for a few seconds and then looked up to them and smiled.

"I-i'm fine. Trust me. When I say I'm fine, I'm fine. You know me, right?" Tapos kumain na ulit ako. Today is the start of my new life, so they better not ruin it.

"I just at least need to talk to him." Matigas na sabi nya. I stopped eating and sighed.

"Okay. But don't hurt him." Then I continued to eat.

"Fine. I have to go. I can't come with you guys on Governor Fernandez's." Sabi nya tapos tumayo na sya at nagmamadaling umakyat sa kwarto nya.

"A-aack.. Ehem, ehe-- a-ack" Napatingin sila mom sakin at inabutan ako ng baso ng tubig kaya uminom naman ako kagaad.

"Where are we going again?" I asked then uminom ulit ako ng tubig.

"Governor Fernandez's." Dad answered. Naubo nanaman ako. Did he just say Fernandez?!

"Eli. Elijah Fernandez is my name. And relax ka lang dyan, Miss. Wag ka mag-alala wala akong gagawing masama sayo. Diba sabi ko sayo dadalhin kita sa haven ko? Tara na. Relax ka lang, hindi kita aanuhin."
