EPITHYMÍA: cup of desires

Cup #18

"My...my, i didnt know you have a beautiful wife here Daryl." Sabi nung matandang babae.

"I know, im very lucky Mrs. Barnes." Sabi ni Daryl at niyakap ang beywang ko.

"This is quite an shock to us Daryl. When did this happened?" Tanong ng isa pang matandang lalaki.

"Just a week ago Mr. Chua. Im sorry i didnt get the chance to invite all of you. As you can see im in a rush of marrying this woman of mine. Baka makawala pa." Sabi ni Daryl at tinignan ako.

I just smiled.

"I see.. well, welcome to the company Mrs. Marx." Bati ni Mr. Chua.

"Thank you." I replied.

"And oh Mr. Villnueva." Napatingin ako kay Daryl sa pagtawag niya kay Tito.

"I heard you went to Korea. Too bad you didnt get my invitation on our wedding." Nakakalokong sabi ni Daryl.

I just wanna laugh right now.

"Unfortunately i didnt Mr. Marx." Pilit na ngiti ni Tito.

"Yeah. I already want to discuss some things with. As you can see i already have the documents of the rice plantation and fruit plantation in La Union." Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Daryl.

"And since i cant handle it anymore ill have my wife here to manage all of it for her first project."

"What?!"

Mukhang lahat ay nagulat sa naging sagot ni Tito.

"I mean, if its the great thing to do. Why not." Bawi niya.

"Alright then i guess this meeting is adjourned. Thank you everyone."

I can see how Tito Julio glared at me. Pasimple din siyang ngumisi habang papalabas ng conference room.

Nakahinga lang ako ng maluwag nung kami na lang ni Daryl ang nasa loob.

He immediately calmed me down.

"Cmon you did great. I can see how angry he is yet he cant do anything about it." Sabi ni Daryl at pinaupo ako.

"Pero natatakot pa rin ako Daryl, hindi ko alam kung ano ang tumatakbo sa utak ngayon ni Tito." Alala kong sabi.

"Just chill, atleast unti unti na nating naibabalik ang lahat sa normal. You have your farmland again." Ngiting sabi nito.

Hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala na naibalik na ulit sakin ang farm namin. I wondered how did Daryl made this happen. Sobrang bilis ng respond niya sa pagtulong sakin.

"Thank you Daryl, i owe you a lot."

Hinawakan niya ang pisngi ko and carress it.

"This is just the start sweety."

Napangiti na lang ako.

"Come, ill show you your office." Aya niya sabay lahad ng kamay.

I stood up and hold his hands at sabay kaming lumabas.

Halos lahat ng mga mata ay saamin nakatingin, lalo na sa akin. I think alam na nila kung sino talaga ako and it cause them a huge shock.

Who would thought that sa famous Bachelor like Daryl Marx is now married?

At sa babaeng katulad ko pa.

Medyo nainsecure tuloy ako.

Im not that special to be paired with Daryl.

I have no millions like he does, or famous like his family heirloom.

All i have is myself and all this chaos.
