Chapter 15: The way you look tonight

Odette’s POV:

“Let’s go on a date!”

Hihihi! Lahat ng officemates ni Vince napatingin samin. What’s wrong? Haha. Then napabalik din agad sila sa work nila. Don’t worry guys, it’s not awkward.

“Ano bang sinasabi mo?” Vince

“Come on. Stop playing hard to get, Marcelo. Let’s go—“

*Kring Kring!*

Jerk. Ang epal naman ng tumatawag na ‘to.

Oops. Si mama?!

“Just a sec.” Lumabas muna ako ng office. “Ma?”

“I’m here in Spain, sweetie.”

“What are you doing here?”

“Meet me in BCL. NOW!”

Then she hung up.

Ugh! Bakit nandito si Mama? Hindi pwedeng may kahit isang tao ang nandito sa Spain ngayon. Pano ko magagawa yung plano ko? Lalo na si Mama pa ang nandito? NO!

Bahala na. I hurriedly went to BCL. I saw her sitting at the same table where I met the Luminary team.

“Ma, anong ginagawa mo dito?”

“Ikaw? Anong ginagawa mo dito?” What? Okay, sa tingin ko mahaba-habang usapan ‘to, so I sit down.

“I’m here for a proje—“

“And?” Mama

“And…?”

“Come one, sweetheart. Alam kong may ibang motive ka pa dito. Tell me.” Mama

This is what I hate about mothers. They know you more than you know yourself.

Wait… parang hindi naman ako ganun kay Ven or Maze? Ugh! Whatever.

“Okay fine, I’m also here to talk to Vince—“

“To be honest, galing si Vince sa Chicago. She personally talked to me and to your dad. Sounds stupid, but yes, nagsumbong si Vince sa inaasta mo sa kanya dito. And he hates it.” What?! Say what?! “He hates it because he knows it’s wrong. Baby girl, please? Think before you act. You’re already engaged to Kevin and it’s not proper to be flirting with your ex behind your fiance’s back. Do you understand me?”

Okay. I was caught off guard. Somehow, Mama’s right.

Para bang bigla akong nagising sa reality. Oo nga pala. I’m engaged.

“Kaya andito ako. Nandito ako to guide you.” Mama

“Ma, I want everything back. I want my life with Vince before back. I just want to forget everything that happened! Ma, help me get my life back.”

“It’s not that easy, baby. Sa’yo na rin nanggaling noon. You threw them all away. You once called them a waste. And wastes don’t come back to your house.” Mama

No. Pwede pa! Pwede pang ibalik. And I will do everything to put everything back to normal. I will do anything to bring my life back.

“But if you really want to bring them back, I know you can and I know you will. Just remember these 2 things. First, make sure you’ll be happy to what you’re fighting for. Second, make sure no one will be hurt behind your backs.” Mama

--

“Make suren you’ll be happy to what you’re fighting for.”

Yes, I’m sure, eto yung makakapagpasaya sakin. Eto yung tanging bagay na makakapagpasaya sakin, nakapagpasaya sakin. Si Vince.
