Against All Odds (Complete)

Chapter 29

His Pov

Araw-araw mas napapalapit ako kay Reign. Well aside from the fact na secretary ko siya. Like naging routine ko na ang pagsama sa kanya sa lunch, minsan tinitreat ko pa siya ng dinner. It's not so me like those past years.

Tuwing Sabado sa bahay niya ako or mamamasyal. Walang kasawa sawang pamamasyal. Game na game naman siya, hilig din sa libreng gala at libreng kain eh. Pero okay na okay yun sakin, i really wanted the feeling of being near to her. The wramth whenever i touch her hand and hold it na di naman niya sinasaway.

Yung tawa niyang masarap pakinggan. Silly me for admiring those things about her. I never ever felt these feelings with my exes though they were all serious.

Iba yung sayang hatid ni Reign, yung pagiging kontento ko sa tuwing magkasama kami.

Today is Saturday and i invited her for our cooking session in my unit. Ganito minsan, minsan gala, minsan movie marathon.

I picked her up on her apartment and drove off to the grocery store to buy the ingredients needed. After that we headed to my unit.

Pagkapasok namin sa penthouse ko ay inilagay na namin ang pinamili namin. Nagbihis muna ako at binigyan ko rin siya ng shirt ko para di marumihan ang damit niya.

Nagsimula na kaming magluto ng iba't ibang putahe para daw kung may matira pwede kung iulam mamayang gabi. Then she made a dessert while i bake my special cookies.

Natapos ang lahat lahat at naghahanda na kami sa mesa ng makarinig kami ng tawanan.

"May bisita ka ba ngayon?"

Tanong niya pa sakin.

"No, i don't invite anybody to come over"

Nagtuloy tuloy ang tawanan nila hanggang sa makarating sila sa kusina ko. Natigil lang sila ng makita kami... Medyo nagulat pa ako sa mga dumating..

"Son!"

Sabay yakap nito sakin pagkalapit. Gumanti naman akong yakap sa mommy ko.

"Mom, what are you doing here. I mean ba't di kayo nagpasabi na nasa Pilipinas pala kayo"

Hinarap naman niya ako.

"Oh son, i thought we might surprise you kaya di kami nagpasabi sayo na nasa Pinas kami but it looks like kami pa ang nasurprise sa nadatnan namin hmm"

Binalingan naman niya si Reign na nasa kabilang side ng lamesa.
Nilapitan niya ito niyakap sabay halik sa pisnge.

"Hi dear, you're so lovely. By the way i'm Margarette, Zarrick's mother. Are you my son's girlfriend?"

Medyu nailang naman si Reign sa sinabi ni mama at ngumiti ng pilit.

"Hello po. Ay naku po ma'am hindi po."

"Ano hindi? Pero bakit naglilive in na kayo? Oh my gosh Zarrick hah di kita pinalaking ganyan. Binabahay mo siya tapos di mo pala girlfriend"

Nilapitan ko si mommy at inakbayan.

"Mom, we're not living in one roof. And i don't prefer live in i prefer in marrying first okay. By the way she's Reign my friend and my very efficient secretary. She's here because i invited her, we are just cooking mom."

Tinignan naman ako ni mom ng mapanuring tingin.

"Friend lang? Sure kayo?"

"Opo ma'am. We're friends and also i'm his secretary."

Sagot pa ni Reign. Sumingit naman sa usapan si Bree.

"I know you, right you're my honey's secretary. Mom i had met her last December though i didn't get the chance to really introduce to her."
