" morning dad. " bati ko kay dad pagka baba ko ng living room ng makita ko siyang nagkakape habang nagbabasa ng newspaper, sinadya ko talagang dito umuwi sa mansyon ngayon at hindi sa condo ko dahil may kailangan lang akong itanong kay dad.

" morning son, something wrong? Why a sudden visit? It's not like you. " tanong ni dad sa akin, hindi naman kasi ako madalas na umuwi dito at bihirang bihira lang talaga  o kapag kinukulit lang ako ni mom na umuwi ay tsaka pa lang ako uuwi dito sa mansyon.

" i just want to ask you if you know someone named erick morales dad? "

" hmmm i know congressman morales, how is he related to him? "

" im not sure but maybe he's his father. "

" ohh is that so, well what's with this erick guy? "

" hmmm a bother to my girl? " patanong na sagot ko kay dad na ikinakunot ng noo niya.

" ehh? Your girl you said? "

" yes dad, my girl. "

" hmmm does she belong... "

" of course not, im serious with this girl now dad. " putol ko sa sinasabi ni dad, alam ko kasi ang iniisip niya.

" well that's good to hear son, so what's the problem of your girl with this erick guy? "

" well, andrea's mother set her up for an arrange marriage to this erick and of course my girl say no to this arrange marriage that's why she run away from her family and choose to live on her own, now she's working as my secretary but our problem is this erick don't want to let my girl go and insist to continue their marriage preparation, we actually meet him last night and he threatened my girl that if she will not agree to the marriage erick will ruined my girl's family business, what do you think I should do for my girl dad? "

" that's really a problem son, especially your opponent is the son of congressman morales, i heard this people are known in the field of illegal businesses, they don't play fair that's why no one dares to oppose or against what they want because they will not let you live peacefully if you get on their bad side. "

" is that so dad? Then are you saying that I should just let my girl to be with this scumbag asshole? " bakas ang inis sa boses ko dahil sa narinig kong sinabi ni dad.

" I didn't say that son, im just telling you what kind of person your opponent is, of course you should save your girl from this erick guy, don't worry son im  always at your back whatever you do i will support you, so what's your plan to this erick guy now? " im glad that my dad didn't go against me this time well, not surprising though cause my parents are always on my side even before and im so thankful because god gave them to me as my parents.

" first i need to make sure the safety of my girl and her family, then i need to make sure to keep their family business safe from bankruptcy and maybe think how to get rid of that asshole. "

" what's the name of your unlucky girl by the way? " pang aasar na tanong ni dad sa akin.

" unlucky? Seriously dad, how can you say that she's unlucky girl if im her boyfriend? Can't you say that she got the jackpot instead? im a perfect package dad incase you don't know that. " pagmamayabang ko kay dad na ikinatawa naman niya.

" whatever son, so who's the lucky girl? "

" her name is shanelle andrea arcadia dad. "

" hmmm how is she related to sherly and steffan arcadia? "

" they are her parents dad. "
