"I CAN'T BELIEVE you choose her over me. I am your girlfriend and yet, inuna mo pa siya!"

He was comfortably sipping his coffee while Gigi's nagging at him. He doesn't mind at all because they are on the studio which owned by Dwight and fortunately, everyone's not around. Katatapos lang kasi ng photoshoot and he was waiting for Dwight to talk about business.

"You should be glad, your boyfriend's a gentleman." Balewalang sagot niya. He was used to Gigi. She's a real nagger but she's good in bed.

"But that woman's after you!"

He heaved a sigh and pulled the woman to sit on his lap. "She's an old friend, Gigi. Besides, she needed a ride. Can't we just drop the topic about Reichelle? You're being paranoid, Gigi."

"Then kiss me." May pilyang ngiting naglalaro sa mga labi nito.

"Not on Dwight's office, honey." Tanggi niya. Gigi's good in that matter and kissing her means doing more. He can't do that on Dwight's office.

"Yeah. Not on my office." Singit ni Dwight na papasok pa lamang. Bahagya lamang nitong sinulyapan si Gigi na kaagad umayos ng upo sa tabi niya. She maybe a brat sometimes but she knew how to act in front of her boss.

Kauupo pa lamang ni Dwight sa swivel chair nito nang sumungaw ang asawa nito na si Rin at ang kambal na sina Dash at Elle.

"D, iwan ko muna sa'yo iyang mga anak mo. May imi-meet lang ako sa coffee shop sa ibaba." Bilin nito at pinapasok ang mga anak.

"Who?"

"Jules."

"No. Not Jules, honey. I'll go with you."

"No. You stay here with the kids, D." ani Rin bago isara ang pinto.

"That fucking bastard." narinig pa niyang bulong ni Dwight.

"Si Jules Timothy Vijandre ba? That's Reichelle's step-brother." Aniya kaya nabaling sa kanya ang atensyon ni Dwight na noon ay inaayos ang mickey mouse head band ng anak.

"Yeah." Binalingan nito si Gigi. "Can you leave us for a while? Hang-out with the other models. Walang aagaw kay Terence."

Nakita niya ang pag-ismid ni Gigi bago padabog na tumayo at tuloy-tuloy na lumabas ng opisina ni Dwight. Tinapunan pa siya nito ng tingin na parang sinasabi na hindi pa sila tapos; na mag-uusap pa sila.

"I can't believe you're dating Gigi. Just don't get her pregnant, man. She's one of my favorite." Tinawanan lamang niya iyon. "Anyway, mabalik tayo kay Jules. That ––" nilingon nito ang dalawang anak at napabuntong hininga."That Jules did something terrible in our past. But on the bright side, he's one of the reasons why I've got the nerve to talk to my wife back then."

"And the result was awesome." Tukoy niya sa kambal. "By the way, about the security of your new building, magpapadala na lang ako ng mga tao ko to see the place and to estimate how many CCTV's are needed."

"Okay. Sa company mo na rin ako kukuha ng mga tao to monitor the facilities. Pati na rin ang security guards. Na-review ko na naman ang mga proposals ninyo and I'm still impressed. I wondered where you're putting your money."

Ngumisi lang siya. Aside from hotels and restaurants na pagmamay-ari pa ng mga magulang nila ni Meg, nakapagpatayo na rin siya ng sariling security agency and for the past five years, his agency became one of the best in the country.

"You're richer." Komento niya.

"Having those two makes me the richer between the six of us. But are you sure about Gigi?" biglang baling nito ng usapan.

Sigurado na nga ba siya kay Gigi? They've been going out for three months now at masasabi niyang bukod sa pagiging selosa nito at hilig sa party ay wala na siyang iba pang makitang kapintasan ng dalaga. But was it enough?

"Ah, no. Don't answer my question because I already know the answer. You're way too old to play around. Why not look for the right one and settle down?"

"I'm on the process." Tumayo na siya at tinapik si Dwight. "Aalis na ako. Kung may kailangan ka pa, just give me a ring."

"Kids, Tito Terence' leaving."

"Bye Tito!" sabay na banggit ng kambal. He just ruffles Dash' hair and pinched Elle's nose.

Paglabas niya ay wala na si Gigi. When he looked at his phone, may text messages ito na may pupuntahan lamang kaya hinayaan nalang din niya. Pagdating niya sa lobby ay nakita niya si Reichelle na kausap ang asawa ni Dwight na si Rin. Pero wala sa dalawang babae ang atensyon niya kung hindi nasa batang lalaki na nakatayo sa tabi ni Reichelle.

Napatiim bagang siya. He wasn't that stupid not to notice the child's appearance. Ilang linggo na rin niyang iniisip ang tungkol sa bagay na iyon. He even investigated Reichelle and Jules at pati na rin si Theon.  The kid was six years old and that was more than enough information to know who fathered the child.

Nilapitan niya ang dalawang babae at kitang kita niya ang pagkagulat sa mukha ni Reichelle nang makita siya. Then his eyes darted to the small man standing beside Reichelle who is now looking at him with those dark brown eyes just like her mother.

"Tapos na kayong mag-usap ni Dwight?" tanong ni Rin na tinanguan lang niya."Sabagay, pareho kayong matipid magsalita kaya hindi na ako magtataka kung bakit napaka-bilis ninyo." Bumaling ito sa kaibigan. "Bukas nalang ako pupunta kila Chesca. Hayaan mong mamatay sa inip iyong isang iyon." Tukoy nito sa asawa ni Irving na kapapanganak lang.

Pagkaalis ni Rin ay hinarap niya si Reichelle. "Can we talk? Perhaps you wanted to tell me something important about our past." Mahina ngunit may diin niyang sabi kay Reichelle. He knew how hard headed Reichelle is. Hangga't kaya nitong tumanggi at umiwas ay gagawin nito for her own benefits, of course.

"I believe we have nothing to talk about our past. Besides, tapos na iyon. I left you and I'm sorry for that." Diretsa nitong sagot sa kanya.

Ngumisi siya. "You've changed for the better, huh? But believe me my dear Reichelle, I always have my ways on finding every bit of information I needed. I can also get everything that I want and that includes you and Theon."

Kitang kita niya ang panlalaki ng mga mata nito. How he loves those beautiful eyes of her and those sexy lips.

Kaagad niyang inalis ang tingin sa labi ni Reichelle dahil baka kung ano pa ang magawa niya.

"You can't do that!" mariin nitong sabi. In a split seconds, ang takot at pagkabigla sa mga mata nito ay napalitan ng galit at pangamba. Did she really think that he's going to get Theon away from her? Hindi siya ganoon kasama para gawin iyon. Pero inaamin niya, he wanted them both.

"Believe me, I can." Lumapit siya rito at bumulong. "We will talk later over diner. You choose: my place or yours?"

Napangisi siya dahil sa paglulon ni Reichelle. So, he still has that effect on her, huh?

"We're staying with Jules." Defeat was what he clearly heard from Reichelle's voice.

"Then it's settled. My place. I'll send someone to fetch you before eight. It's up to you if you wanted to bring Theon with you but I suggest that it is better if you will go alone although I won't mind if you will bring him so you don't have to hesitate."

Umiling si Reichelle. "I'll go alone. Kagagaling lang ni Theon sa sakit at ayokong mapagod siya."

"And please, don't give me that cold stare as if I'm the coldest man alive. You know I'm not." He said with a smirk.

"Damn you, Terence. I know you're up to something but I will not give it to you that easy."

"No, honey, I won't give it to you that easy." He said, emphasizing the last eight words because he knew, Reichelle will need him sooner or later but he won't give in easily on what she wanted because if she changed a lot for the past years, he too, changes a lot.
