Wendy Ylonna's POV

Jean Clyde Castillo III added new photo on his post

Hayy. Having such a great time with Mincey huh? Kailan ka ba magbabago Jean? Why do you have to be a such a jerk? My faced crumpled I throw my phone into my bed. Sunday morning iyon agad ang nakita ko. Nakaka-sira ng araw!

Wala na sana akong balak bumababa sa dinning area ng katukin ako ng housemaid namin.

"Come in." I lazily said. The old woman came in, she smiled at me.

"Ms. Wendy tawag po kayo ng daddy niyo. Sabay daw po kayong kumain ng agahan." I sighed. And slowly smiled.

"Alright. Baba na po ako Ya."

I sighed before going toward my bathroom. Naghilamos ako at kinumbinsi ang sarili na ayos lang ang lahat. I should smile! Pero nilalamon ako ng sakit at puot, geez Jean bakit mo ba ginagawa saakin to?

Pagbaba ng hagdan ay dumeretso agad ako sa dinning area. Wala roon si dad. Maybe in our pool area huh? I slowly walk toward the pool area. Nakita ko agad roon si dad na nagbabasa ng newspaper habang umiinom ng black coffee.

"Dad." I called.

"Wendy! Good morning hija." He kissed my both cheeks.

"Good morning, dad. Si mommy po?" He sighed and shooked his head.

"As usual having her trip to London for her business matters." I nodded.

"Si Ate po ba umalis na?" He nodded.

"Hmm, kaninang madaling-araw pa. Sinundo siya ni Lorenzo." Ate and Kuya Lorenzo will going to have their fifth year anniversay in China. Buti pa ang losyang na yun naka-jackpot sa jowa niya! Ako kaya kailan ako magkaka-jowa noh?

"Ah." I bitterly smiled.

Kumuha agad ako ng bacon at ham, linagay ko iyon sa pan ko. I don't eat rice in the morning.

"By the way Wendy." Kunot noo akong napa-tingin kay dad.

"Yes po?"

"Ikaw muna ang makikipag-meeting sa mga new investors natin mamaya. I'll be going to Tagaytay for a wedding ceremony. At wala naman ang ate mo. Kaya ikaw nalang muna." I groaned. What?

"But dad--"

"Anak, just for once please." I shooked my head.

"Dad I don't like business! You know that right? That's why I took HRM." My forehead creased.

"Wendy, just for this time. If you don't want to handle our business then I won't force you. But please I hope you'll change your mind. Dahil tumatanda na kami ng mommy mo, hindi kakayanin ng ate mo kung siya lang mag-isa ang magha-handle noon." I sighed.

"D-ad." He smiled. And put down his newspaper.

"I'll go now." Then he leave the pool area. I sighed and put my sandwich down. I drink  my water and stand up.

I think i made up my mind.

-----

Wearing my yellow checkered suit, inner yellow spaghetti strap, short skirt yellow checkered and black wedge. I walk towards my dad's office here in our house.

"Dad. Can I come in?" I knocked once.

"Sure." He said.

Pagbukas ay nakita ko agad siyang prenteng naka-upo sa swivel chair habang may binabasa. He didn't even give me a glanced! Nagtatampo nga.

"Dad." I called.

Umupo ako sa harap ng table niya. Engineer Marco G. Villanueva. I read it again, my dad was one of the highest paid engineer here at the Philippines. He does all the biggest project!

"Hmm." Ngumuso ako. Hindi man lang ako tinginan. Hmp!

"Payag na ako. Saan ba yung meeting." Tinginan naman niya agad ako at napangiti ng makitang naka-formal attire na ako.

"That's great then! You will meet them at Max's Hotel." I nodded.

"Sige po. Aalis na ako." He smiled again.

"Okay, take care anak." I smiled and kissed his cheeks. Nako si daddy talaga. I brought out my phone to check the time, it's nearly 9 pm! 10 pm will be the meeting.

"Manong, I'll borrow dad's car. Sabihin mo nalang ito yung ginamit ko huh? Sira pa yung akin nasa talyer pa." Inabot naman agad ni manong ang susi ng walang alinlangan.

"Sige po Ms. Villanueva." Looking like a loyal butler.

"Alright." I pressed the alarm button of the car. At agad pumasok roon. I smiled I really like daddy's car. Grey Mustang!

"Goodmorning ma'am." Bati saakin pagpasok ko sa hotel. I greeted them back with a smile. Nagtungo agad ako sa restaurant ng hotel. Nakita ko naman agad si Mr. Castro ang new investor namin.

"Sorry did I made you wait for too long?" He stand up and chuckled.

"No, kakarating ko lang din. I didn't expect that you'll be the one who will came here!" Mr. Nicholas Castro was good looking, and muscular. His height was about 6'0? And he was two years older than me.

"Ah!" I laughed. "Dad will going to Tagaytay. That's why." I shrugged. He smiled again.

"Alright. That's okay." I glanced at the table and saw a coffee there.

"Do you want to order?" I shooked my head.

"No it's okay. I already have breakfast. Ahm, shall we start now?" I ask.

"No not yet actually, were waiting for Mr.--" he was cut off

"Sorry am I late?" My eyes suddenly widened. Jean was standing confidently in front of me. Wearing a white longsleeve that was folded until his elbow, paired with a black pants, and leather brown shinny shoes. Myy----I thought he's with Mincey?!

"No, actually kararating lang namin ni Ms. Villanueva." I was shocked by his presence that's why i was late on saying anything! Geez!

"A-m yes, Kakarating ko lang din." He smiled and sitting on my right side. So the scenerio is I was sitting in between this two greek gods men. What the?
