BC #1: Seeking Vengeance (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 29

PUMASOK SILA ni Xanthrus sa bagong silid na pinaglalagian ng ina. Hinihintay nila ang pagdating ng Papa niya dahil tinapos nito ang kailangang pirmahan. Kakarating lang din nila galing sa Supermarket para bumili ng kailangan.

She also filed a leave to take care of her mother. Her father also insisted so there she is, devoting all of her time for her.

"Abrianna, hindi ko alam kung bakit nag-iba ang isip mo pero sana kunin mo ang posisyon sa kumpanya." Narinig niyang saad ng ama

"I could make money on my own. Kaya lang ako naging desperada nung mga nakaraan ay sa kadahilanang wala na akong mapangtustos kay Mama." Umiling naman ang kapatid at hinaplos ang buhok ng ginang na natutulog "Thank you for the offer but I'm good on my own."

"Papa, sinabi ko na rin sa kaniya 'yan pero matigas ang ulo niya." Sabat naman niya habang inaayos ang mga kagamitan sa kusina

She chose to transfer her to a room that has everything on it.

"Ate, kumikita naman ako sa photography. Tsaka wala akong alam sa business. Hindi naman ako kagaya ninyong mag-ama na magaling sa ganyan." Natatawang pasaring naman ni Abrianna

"You know what, your mother is the one who taught me how to be fearless in business." Nangingiting tinignan ng ama ang kanilang ina "So I think, you might got that bold and fierce attitude which is what I saw when you were persistent to get a position in the company."

"Po? Nagawa ko lang po 'yun para kay Mama. I'm not really that heartless, just like Ate Xaia, in business. Baka magpamigay ako ng cellphones."

"Well, suit yourself. Akiyama Technologies, Inc. is open for you. Just tell me if you want a position." Kaswal na sabi ni Xaia

"Seudama." Parehas silang napatingin ni Xanthrus sa ama "When will you ask me for a approval of courtship?"

"Papa!" Suway niya sa ama ngunit hindi nakatakas sa kaniyang mga labi ang ngiti na itinatago "We're okay. Courtship is not necessary."

Umiling ang ama at itinaas pa ang kamay nito para patigilin siya sa pagsasalita

"As much as I want to respect your decision, I could not help myself to be protective to you. You and Abrianna are my daughters and I would not let anyone hurt you." Isang matalim na tingin ang ipinukol nito sa binata na parang isang babala ngunit agad din itong nawala nang pasadahan siya ng tingin ng ama

"Tatang, huwag ninyo takutin si Xanthrus." Pambasag ni Abrianna sa seryosong tensyon na nagaganap

She feels that there is something wrong with her father. The way he speaks and acts shows how much mad he is.

Maybe, he's upset about the fact that Xanthrus did not introduce himself to him? Formally? As my suitor? Maybe, that's it.

"Could we talk outside, Mr. Seudama? Man-to-man. I want to clarify some things regarding our partnership." Alam niya kung gaano kadelikado ang ama kapag ganito ito at ayaw niyang si Xanthrus ang pabagbuntunan nito

"Papa, sasama ako. I'm the COO and if there is something wrong about the company, I am obligated to make things right." Akmang lalapit siya nang pigilan siya ni Abrianna na umiiling "Chichiyo, watashi wa anata ni dōkō shimasu."

"Īe. Kore wa watashi to anata no otoko no madesu." He looked at her straight in the eyes that tells her to stop arguing with him "We will talk outside. And that's final."

She sighed in defeat and nodded as her response. Wala naman siyang magagawa kung gusto talaga ng ama na makausap si Xanthrus. Tsaka mabuti na rin 'yun para makilala ng ama kung gaano kabait ang binata.
