Serenity's Curse to Chaos (KN - Castillo Series #3)

Curse 49 - Second

"Babe what? Are you ready already?" Sigaw ni Chaos mula sa sala.

"Hmmm.." I put on my lipstick before I look at myself in the mirror. "Yes. Ready!" I shouted back before grabbing my bag.

Agad akong tumakbo palabas ng kwarto at nginitian si Chaos na karga-karga si Psyche na suot ang kulay pink niyang dress. He looked at me before giving me a wink, napailing nalang ako habang nilalapitan siya. Kinarga ko si Psyche mula sakanya, she's giggling while clapping her small hands before wrapping her chubby arms around my neck. "Ah! Yi! Yi!" The two-month old little girl shouted as if calling me. 

"Yes mommy's here." I kissed her lips. "Am I pretty? Do I look good?" I chuckled and so did she.

Naramdaman ko ang isang kamay na nakahawak sa bandang tiyan ko. I looked at the guy beside me. "You're beautiful." He said.

Mahina kong hinampas ang braso niya bago kinurot. "Bolero." Tawa ko. "Tara na. I don't wanna be late for my first day."

He gave me a kiss on the forehead bago sabay kaming naglakad pababa sa parking lot. Today's my first day for work, napagusapan na namin ni Chaos ang offer sakin ni Tita Aleena to manage a new Sweet Mist branch. Dahil mukhang naaawa na naman si Chaos na nasa bahay lang ako lagi ay pinayagan na niya ako, but the only problem is this little one sitting on my lap. He suggested na kina dad muna si Psyche pero ayaw ko, funny how I can't trust to leave my daughter in my own family's house. Kaya I was left with no choice but to hire a nanny that'll take care of Psyche in my office while I work.

"Nasa café na ba si Glenda?" I asked Chaos while staring at Psyche that is playing with her stuffed unicorn. Kinagat-kagat niya yung isang leg. Si Glenda ang hinire naming nanny. "No anak, that's dirty." Hinihila ko palayo sa bibig niya yung laruan.

Tiningnan ko si Chaos. "Sands?" I called him. He nodded. "Yes nasa café na. Mom texted me."

"Hala andun na si Tita? Can you drive faster? Nakakahiya." I said in shock. Ib-brief niya kasi ako for my first day. "Relax Seren. Alam mo naman yun, mas maaga pa sa early bird." He chuckled.

Sabay nalang kaming nagtawanan at nagkatinginan nang nakisabay si Psyche sa tawanan namin. Hay this little girl.

I kissed her chubby cheek na sabi ni Chaos ay nagmana sakin. Duh. "Behave ka later ha?"

"Look who's here! My baby Psyche!" Kakapasok palang namin sa bagong branch ng Sweet Mist ay agad na kaming sinalubong ni Tita Aleena para lang makarga ang anak namin.

When she's already carrying Psyche that's the time for her to greet us. "Hello tita." Bati ko sakanya bago siya bineso. "Hello mom." Bati din ni Chaos.

"Nathaniel, you're here. Wala ka bang class?"

"I have mom. Hinatid ko lang." Inakbayan niya ako.

Tita practically rolled her eyes dahilan para matawa ako. "Oh don't worry, I'll take very good care of them."

Hindi naman halatang tinataboy ni tita si Chaos no? Kaya etong katabi ko naman ay nakasimangot na. Nginitian ko nalang siya bago tinapik ang pisngi. "You'll be late. Sige na."

He sighed before looking at me. "I'll fetch you at six." He murmured. I giggled before nodding. "We'll be waiting." He gave me a hug before he kissed my forehead. "I love you." Bulong niya.

"Love you too."

Niyakap niya din si tita at hinalikan si Psyche bago nagpaalam. "Bye princess." He said.

Nang makaalis na si Chaos ay agad ko munang binrief si Glenda sa pag-aalaga kay Psyche then nagsimula na kami ni tita Aleena sa pagdidiscuss ng mga gagawin dito sa branch.
