Loved by the CEO: Tristan Salviejo Story

CEO54 - Eula's Father

#5 - Eula's Father

Andrea's POV

Nakaupo kami sa couch ni Tristan while our visitors were sitting opposite our spot.

They're holding a CD which I guess is the recorded confession of Eunice. I should not be here pero hiniling ni Tristan na wag akong umalis sa tabi nya. Eula is with her nanny.

"Tristan, I know you've been through a lot of hardship just to see our granddaughter happy. Hindi namin pinagsisisihan na iwan sayo si Eula." Eunice's father looked at his wife as if asking for permission to say something to us. "But the thing is.. we found this."

Inabot nya kay Tristan ang CD na agad namang tinanggap nong huli.

"Ikaw na ang bahala na magsabi kong totoo ba ang nilalaman nyan o hindi. We'll wait for your call about Eula after you watched that. We'll go ahead."

The two people stood up. Tumayo na din kami ni Tristan at nakipagkamay sa dalawa. Eunice's mother gave me a hug.

"Salamat sa pag-aalaga sa apo ko, hija." She said before yhey left.

Naiwan naman kami ni Tristan na parehong nakatingin sa CD.

"Gusto mo bang panoorin na ngayon o sa ibang araw na?" Tanong ko.

Parang ayaw nya pa kasing galawin ang CD. Nakatingin lang sya dito at malayo ang iniisip.

"Hon?" Untag ko sa kanya.

Bahagya syang nagulat at naguguluhang tumingin sa akin.

"Were you saying something, hon?" He asked.

Sabi na nga ba nasa malayo ang isip nya.

"I was asking if you want to watch it right now or the other day na lang. Para kasing hindi ka pa handa eh. We can run some DNA test first before you watch that." Suhestyon na sinang-ayunan naman nya.

"That's what I'm thinking earlier. I need to call my friend to run some test." Aniya sabay kuha ng phone.

Tumango na lang ako. Lumayo sya ng konti sa akin nang tawagan ang kaibigan nya.

After few minutes bumalik din sya with his worried face.

"What's wrong?" Agad kong tanong.

"It'll take three days bago lumabas ang result."

Three days? Ang tagal naman non. Pero mas okay na yung maghintay sa sigurado.

"We can wait for that, right hon? Mabilis lang naman matapos ang mga araw."

Tumango lamang sya at inabot sa akin ang CD. Naguguluhan ko naman itong tinanggap.

"Please keep that until the result come. Baka kasi matempt ako na panoorin yan."

"Okay."

Just like last night, he hugged me again.

"Just getting some energy. Parang bibigay na kasi ako." He said while hugging me.

Gumanti naman ako ng yakap sa kanya.

We were on that position when someone yelled.

"Group hug!!" A tiny voice filled the room.

It was Eula with her nanny. Agad itong yumakap sa binti namin ni Tristan.

Natawa naman kaming dalawa. Tristan carried her.

"How was your walk with nanny?" Tristan asked.

The child giggled.

"It was fine, dad. We met new friends and someone gave this to me." Pinakita ng bata ang isang bulaklak.
