I GOT A CHILDISH HUSBAND

Chapter 17

Mekari's POV

After working on some of the paperwork that I take home from the office, I decided to take a break and check emails for updates on our transactions with Italy. When the enemy sabotages our products, which eventually they pay for with their lives, it doesn't affect our deals with other countries.

I've already informed the team regarding the incidents to deal with those aftermaths.

I checked on the time and it was already 9 in the evening, I didn't notice how long it had been since I started working. I lean on the swivel chair, to relax a bit when my phone starts ringing.

I didn't check the caller. I swipe the answer button and then put the phone on speaker.

"What?" I blankly said while grabbing a handful of papers.

"Grabe ka naman, apo! Iyan ba talaga ang pambungad mo sa akin-" Nagmamaktol na sagot niya sa kabilang linya. Tsk!

So much drama.

I decided to end the call.

"Bye."

I was about to tap the red button when he hysterically stopped me.

"Teka..teka ito naman di mabiro." Aniya na may kasamang naiilang na pagtawa.

"What do you want, old man?" I asked him calmly, holding on to this small patience I have left for him right now.

"Aray naman. Gumawa naba kayo ng bab---"

I didn't let him finish and finally ended the call.

Nagpakawala ako ng isang buntong hininga habang hinihilot ang aking sentido. Akala ko pa naman importanteng tawag, kahit ba na sa malayo ang matandang 'yon ay hindi titigil sa katarantaduhan niya.

Why does everyone keep on messing with me, kakatapos ko pa nga lang iligpit ang isang itlog nayon, na ipinag taka ko kung bakit tahimik lang ito kanina after dinner.

It didn't take a minute before the old man started calling again. If he won't stop with his craziness, I'm gonna make his stay whatever place he is right now a living hell. Tsk!

I answered his call but didn't say anything. Ipinagpatuloy ko ang paglipat ng pahina sa mga files na kinuha ko kanina.

"Hello, apo! Hehe, I safely arrived here in Japan." Pag balita niya na may kasamang bungisngis. Why can't he act with his age, for f*cking sake, he's too old to do that?

"Are you summoned for the party?" Hindi ko na binigyan pansin ang sinabi niya baka kung saan pa kami abutin ng pagiging isip bata ng matandang to baka hindi ako makaka pigil at tuluyan ng putulin ugnayan ko sa matandang 'yan.

"Bakit ba palagi mong pinuputol?" Reklamo niya bago tumikhim at saka sinagot ang tanong ko gamit ang seryoso niyang boses. "I did. Is Zack going with you?" Malamig na tanong niya.

Finally, umalis na sa matandang to ang kaluluwa ng pagiging bata.

"Hmm." I simply replied, still reading the papers I was holding. It's a sales report for this month and a budget proposal for the next month.

"Are you sure about that, apo? Everyone will know about him. Isn't it dangerous for him?" Pahayag ni grandpa. He doesn't sound like he's concerned though.

"Yes and Nah. I don't give a damn care about their opinions, they just talk shit but are cowards. Even though he is an idiot. My husband is not an accessory, everyone should know that I'm married." Seeing how this world works and how fast information travels around every corner, I wouldn't be surprised if they knew about the wedding without a ceremony.
