A LOVE THAT STARTED IN MY BOSS' OFFICE

CHAPTER 27

Fere's POV

Lost for words. Yun ang meron ako ngayon. Yuseff found out what happened. I want to explain my side but I'm too weak to even open my mouth. I am too tired to even breath. Andito ako sa harap nya, he's raging with anger. Seems he like to kill me now. And I'm just here, seating, waiting for the bullet to kill my heart.

I know very well that it's my fault. Yes, I made him sign the deed of sale. Yes, I made him transfer the property to Anthony because I wanted so much to have him again. I wanted him to stay by my side.

Now, his eyes are bloody red. Hindi lang yung property ang pinaaayos nya. He's even looking for his son and his son's mother. Calls are coming in every minute and that every minute, I am losing the battle. I am losing him.

He's so angry with me and I'm so scared he may hit me anytime.

"You stay in the room! Never go out and don't show your face to me!!!"

I oblige. I started to pack my things and keep it under the bed. I texted my sisters to fix their things already. I asked Fate to prepare their school papers. I know how much I wanted to stay but maybe staying is the wrong thing to do.

That night, I heard a child calling him Daddy. Because I'm not allowed to go out, I just peeped on the door.

If there's any word superlative that pain, maybe that's what I'm feeling now.

I waited for them to sleep. It's past 11:00pm, I sneak out of the room. I am very hungry. I just prepare a glass of milk and found a donut on the fridge. I settled eating those to ease my hunger.

"I thought you left him already."

"Not yet. I'll leave when he shoo me away. But for now, I'll stay."

"We'll see then. He's now very willing to father our son and he said we'll stay together."

"Good for you."

"Why are you staying? Why don't you just leave?"

"I did everything because I want him to stay with me. Why will I leave if he's not doing anything yet?"

"But you don't have a place here, you see."

"Yes. I know and it's quite clear. But can you let me love him for this last time? Konti na lang naman Kristina can you let me have the memories? Don't worry about me, I won't intrude in your space."

I drank the milk and returned to our- to the room I'm occupying. The milk helped me sleep that night.

I woke up hearing happy people in the kitchen. I just want to peep. I'm hungry too but, yeah, he told me to stay in the room. Maybe I'll sneak another glass of milk later.

The sight of them made me want to kill myself.  I see happy couple feeding their son. I saw a happy family. Hihiramin ko na lang ang memories nila paglayo ko. Kunwari ako yung kasama ni Yuseff na masayang kumakain. Kunwari na lang, pamilya namin ang nasa mesa ngayon. After my eyes been satisfied with what I saw, I went back to our room.

Memories came flashing on my brain. Heto na naman ako at nagsimula na namang umiyak. Hanggang kailan ba ako mananatili dito sa bahay nya? hanggang kailan ko titiisin ang lahat? Am I not worthy to be heard? Am I already becoming his eye sore? Hindi ba pwedeng silipin man lang nya ako? Did he wished for my death now?

Sa ngayon, hindi ko kaya ang lumayo ng kusa. Ang hiling ko na lang ay ipagtabuyan na sana ako ni Yuseff. Ayoko na pero hindi ko kayang lumayo. Nahihirapan ako lalo na't may pinanghahawakan pa ako. Sana, kausapin na ako ni Yuseff. I want him to tell into my face to leave so I won't hold onto something.

"Hub, can you please tell me to go away now? I am hurting so much. Please tell me to leave." bulong ko sa hangin habang umaasa makakarating ito sa kanya

Yuseff's POV

I was so disappointed with Fere. Hindi ko akalain na sya pa ang gagawa ng ganoong bagay sa akin. She deceived me and gave the restaurant to that fucking Anthony. I even don't know how and why the hell Anthony knew my wife and how she helped him.

Walang malinaw na sagot kunh bakit nagawa yun ni Ferella. Sa dami ng problema ko ngayon, hindi ko na alam ang uunahin ko.

Alam kong mali pero pinili kong patirahin si Kristina at Clark sa bahay namin ni Fere. Anthony kidnapped Clark at hindi makabubuti na hayaan ko sila. Clark is still my son and he should stay with me. Ilang taon na ang nanakaw sa aming mag-ama and I won't let someone snatch another time na para sa amin.

I also learned that Kristina is now anulled with Anthony. May threat din na natatanggap si Kristina galing kay Anthony kaya naman kailangan nila munang lumayo. Atleast here in my house there are guards. And I know they will be safe.

Hindi ko pa ulit kayang nakipagusap kay Fere. Simula nang malaman kong sya ang may kagagawan kung paanong natransfer ang restaurant ay hindi ko na magawang harapin sya. I also stayed at the other guest room. Kahit magkasama kami sa bahay, hindi kami nagkikita. I don't know hot to face her without anger.

I would still want her to explain pero hindi na muna ngayon. I need to solve my other problems first. Madami pa akong iniintindi and Fere can wait.
