"Nahanap na namin siya Ma'am." Sabay abot sakin ng folder na sa malamang eh naglalaman ng tungkol sa kanya, sa pinsan ko.
Matagal na naming pinapahanap ang pinsang buo ko, the first son and grandchild of the Perez family, ang siyang magmamana ng pinakamalaking parte ng mga ari-arian ng pamilya namin. Dalawa lang kaming apo kaya kami lang dalawa ang maaaring magmana ng mga ari-arian ng mga magulang at mga lolo at lola namin. Namatay daw ang pinsan ko nang ipinanganak pero biglang may lumabas ng balitang ninakaw lang pala siya, ibinenta sa mga sindikato, at may nakapagpatunay. Yun nga lang ay hindi na siya mahagilap. Kaya ngayon pinapahanap na siya ng mga magulang niya, paano yan eh ako ang naunang makahanap sa kanya?
"Hindi nila maaaring mahanap si Kent." Oo, dahil kapag nahanap nila ang taong iyon ay mawawala ang lahat sakin. Mapupunta ang lahat sa kanya.
"Makakaasa kayo Ma'am." Ngumiti ako sa pinagkakatiwalaang imbestigador ng aming pamilya, na nasa akin ang loyalty, sabay inabot ang sobreng naglalaman ng pinagkasunduan naming amount ng pera.
"Good, pwede ka nang umalis."
Pagkatalikod niya. Uumpisahan ko na sanang ilabas ang mga papel nang biglang may tumawag sa akin.
*Phone convo
"Babe, where are you? I've been waiting for you for almost an hour! I miss you, ilang weeks na tayong hindi nagpapangabot" I could almost imagine him pouting, such a baby.
"May mineet lang akong client, I'll be there in a jiffy. See you"
"I love you babe, ingat."
"I love you too." Then I hung up.
Of course, malamang e boyfriend ko yung kausap ko, and we've been together for 2 years and we're already engaged. Tonight was supposed to be a dinner date at our house. Yes, we're living together. We haven't seen each other the past days kasi palagi akong nakakatulog sa office kakaovertime, and he's working as a chef at his own restaurant so busy rin siya. Ngayon lang talaga nagkatime kaya on the way na ko sa bahay namin. Ipinagpaliban ko muna ang pagbabasa nung content na ibinigay sakin ng investigator.
Pagdating ko sa bahay, nakita ko siyang nakatulog na sa sofa. I checked the time, oops 9pm na pala, I'm way too late kaya pala nakatulog na 'to. He looks hella tired. So kumuha ako ng kumot at kinumutan siya, patayo na sana ako ng bigla nyang hilain ang kamay ko. Napadapa tuloy ako sa ibabaw niya tapos inakap niya ako. Bale magkapatong na kami.
"Babe, you were just gunna leave me sleeping here huh?" He said that while his face buried on my neck.
"Yes, you look tired.."
"So? Ginising mo sana ako, but then no need, because he's awake."
"Who?"
"The one down there." Then I felt something poking on my leg. Ooh someone's awake.
"Should I let him sleep then babe?" I whispered in his ear. I felt him get harder.
"Oh you naughty little babe."
"What or who are you calling little huh?" I sat on his erection, and felt it poking my middle.
"Oh these, I'm calling these little, because these fit my hands perfectly." He placed his hands on my breasts. And began to play with it.
"Mmm. Oh really now huh?" Ngumiti siya ng nakakaloko saka ako hinila papalapit sa mukha niya. Para magkatagpo ang mga labi namin. How I missed him.
Our kiss deepened and you know what happened next.
The next day...
I woke up on the floor, covered with a blanket. Wala na si Blake. I checked the time, it's already 8 am. It's a Sunday, but since Blake's restau needs him, he has to be there. His restau opens at 9am. I stood up, and went to the kitchen, I saw a note on the fridge that said "Babe, see you later. You don't have urgent works tonight right? I checked your schedule. I love you! Cooked bfast for you. Heat it in the microwave." I did what he said on the note, and ate the food. It was Carbonara. He knows I love it.
After that, I went to the bathroom and showered. Then I changed into my Sunday dress, I'm going to the church. But I remembered the folder. Oh right, I'll read it first before going out.
I opened the folder, and when I saw the picture, I dropped the folder and I felt like my world stopped.
"How did this.." I couldn't manage to continue what I was saying.
I struggled to pick up the folder, good thing the papers and pictures were intact. I opened it again and I couldn't just believe it.
