The Man Hater meets the Trouble Maker

Background Check

Nicolas was born with a wealthy family. He was been prepared to be the Boss of his own company. He always meet his parents expectations, and he had been always on top whether in academic and athletic competition.

He is a swimmer with various awards received from the competitions he joined here and abroad. He is a fulfilled man at a young age of twenty-six.

He may have everything what life could offer,but everybody doesn't know that he had a trouble regarding the matter of his heart. Until now, after his first heart break he didn't find yet someone fit to be his woman.

It's undeniable that many women are dying for him. But he was too snob for them. Most of the women he met were flirts.

He don't like cheap girls with heavy make up on their faces. Wearing too short dresses and showing off too much skin. He prefer the conservative modern type of woman. For he wanted not to kill the thrill immediately. He wanted to discover himself the mystery in a slow pace.

He'd like to have a mysterious woman. Playing hard-to-get too. It requires a lot of courage and strength to pursue her. Unlike the woman who easily jumps and joins him in bed. That's too boring. Ended too easily.

Time is an investment. If he kept on playing with women, he would finally end up stupid and nothing. The next time he'll be spending his precious time, is with the woman he would be involve seriously for the rest of his life.

He don't like flings and short lived relationships. He wants it to last forever. If forever is too short,it would be for eternity?And everybody in his family was waiting for him to bring a lovely woman to be his wife. He don't even introduce one girl friend, how would he find a wife? For him it's a big W-h question.

With that thought, napangiti nalang siya. Paano kaya hanapin at matagpuan ang maging kahati ng kanyang buhay? Mukhang malabo, marami namang babae for one night stand. But, when he met that woman, kahit likod lang nito ang nakita niya.He was so sure that woman is fit to bring her to the ends of the world. And her name was Jel. How would he find her without leaving any trace? He only had one Hope of finding her, it was through the bracelet.

What if the bracelet is not hers? And belongs to someone else? C'mon Nico boy! It's hers! He convinced himself to pacify his trembling and weary heart..

He closed his eyes and spoke softly the woman's name.

He went out to the balcony where he used to waste time thinking and exploring his wild imagination.

It was lightly raining then, a perfect time refreshing the moment where he found her.

The droplets of the rain came down pouring to kiss him as he let them do.

One by one, right after the other, and eventually it moistened his face. His eyes seeing darkness and trying to paint the woman's face.

He smiled and whispered into the air "Oh Jel.. His Jel.." As if he will be heard by her.. Weird.. And his thoughts were taken by the freezing wind of that rainy night.

He was then mentally exhausted, and went to bed, and easily dozed off.. He brought himself an imagery of a beautiful woman bearing the name of Jel. He hope he was not wrong, painting her in the air.

Kinaumagahan nagising siya sa isang tawag sa kanyang telepono. Ala sais pa ng umaga. Ang aga naman tumawag ang Mom niya. Alam naman nito ang oras ng kanyang paggising. Baka kako ito ay isang importanteng tawag at kailangang sagotin.

Sinagot niya ang mommy niyang pagkakulit. She still treated him as if he was still her baby boy. Which at times they end up into arguments. And later,he would give in to what may pleases her..

After all, he is not a bad son but a troublemaker. And his mom always find him way out from his troubles way back when he was a teen. Today, he can manage. It's so easy to get out and escape! He grinned..

Halos lahat nalang ng laro, napapaaway siya. Sobra kasing mainitin ang kanyang ulo kapag dinadaya at naaagrabyado siya.

Naalala niya noong sumali siya sa academic contest at nakita niyang nag cheat ang isang manlalahok. Sa backstage sinunggaban niya ito at binigyan ng isang suntok. Sapol! Nakangiwi nlang ito habang tumakbo palabas. At doon, napatawag ang mommy niya.

Naging sekreto nilang dalawa ang mga ganoong sitwasyon. Ayaw ng dad niyang mapaaway siya kahit kanino. May reputasyon itong inaalagaan. And he didn't even care.

Nadadala niya ang pagkamainitin ng kanyang ulo sa kanilang bahay at napagbubuntongan ang kanilang  mga kasambahay. Kapag hindi nasusunod ng maayos ang kanyang mga utos, alam na ng lahat paano mabulwayan ang mga ito.

Minsan ang iba ay umaalis dahil natatakot sa kanya. Hayun, ang mom niya on the rescue sa mga kasambahay nila. Binibigyan ng day off and extra money para makapagpahinga ang napagbuntungan ng galit na kasambahay nila. Huwag lang itong umalis. Mahirap maghanap ng mapagkatiwalaang tauhan sa loob ng bahay. At hindi iyon pinagpapahalagahan ni Nicolas.

He do what he pleases to do. He always satisfied his madness by scolding someone else. Shouting was his way too.. Nobody was pleased..

"Hello anak! I got a news for you!" Gising ka na ba?

"Mommy naman, pag ikaw naman tumatawag parang hindi alam ang oras ng gising ko. I'm still in the state of having a good dream, and ended when you called up. Anyways, what's up?"

"Nico baby, I want to bring good news for you!"

"And what's that all about mom?"

"Your dad wants to retire from his presidency in our company and guess what! He wants you to take over!"

"What? Did i hear it right mom? How dad had easily chosen me? I thought it would be uncle Renee."

"Nope.. Son, you have proven enough. He said just control your temper and you will be far greater than him. And he suggested, what if we would help you find a wife? Maybe that's the missing part of you..."

"Mom, could we talk my issue some other day? It seems not good to talk about  finding a wifey in such early today.. BTW, when are you guys coming home?"

"Okay I understand..But promise me to have a heart-to-heart talk when we arrive. We will be flying home the soonest your dad will close a deal from his foreign investors. This would help our company a lot. We would be known and do business internationally. And it will put you on the mountain top, you will be stepping your dad's footsteps. We both know, you will never put us down.  I love you son and take care."

Bye Mom.. I love you too and dad!"

And the conversation ended.. Call Ended..
