One Night Surprise

50

A man relaxing in a bubble-filled bathtub when he received a phone call coming from his dad.

"Useless brat! How can you take over the company?? You're such a useless!" He yelled then he ends the call he never give him a chance to talk.

"Even if I die you still won't be proud of me." He mumbled.

His dad is mad at him because of the sudden announcement of  Jeffer's engagement to Yara. His father wants to take over the company that Jeffer's father established. You can say he is an ambitious man and his blood runs into his son's vein.

"Okay, Justin let's play a little game called chasing a mouse." He smirked when he saw his reflection in the mirror.

He was in the LiCorp's lobby waiting for Yara.
"What do you want?" She cross her arms in her chest she is not happy to see him.
"You are not excited to see me?"
She keeps glaring at Justin.
"Ouch! I thought we are friends." He flashes his smiles.
"I don't have time for this Justin." She said.
"I heard you have your own office now why won't you give me a tour."
"Will you stop this Justin we are not even close."
"Chill, I'm here because I want to know you more that's it."
"Don't trust Jeffer that much Yara after all ikaw rin naman ang masasaktan sa huli." He added.
She looks annoyed.
"I don't have time with you." She walks away.

"Why can't she see it, Jeffer is only using her to stable its position on the company. Pathetic girl pareho lang tayo na ginagamit." He mumbled.
Alam ni Justin na mahihirapan siyang mapalapit kay Yara knowing that Jeffer is giving a warning to Yara pagdating sa kanya.

"Justin."
He turn his head to the person who calls his name.
"Divine Prey Monte you look fat." He playfully smile.
She smack his shoulder.
"I'm pregnant I'm not fat." She pout.
"Why are you here? Do you have business to attend in LiCorp?"
They've known each other since college days they got close when they attend a barista sessions together.
Justin likes the scent of coffee.
"Why would I answer you Justin?"
"What? I'm just curious."
Prey stares at him with confusion.
"Its been a while to see you DP."
"You are right." She smile.
"How's your business?"
"Lately I don't have time to pay a visit and the weird thing is I can't stand the smell of coffee right now."
"Really? Are you joking?" He can't believe what he heard coming from a coffee lover. If there is thing that connect them its the love of the coffee.
The world see Justin as a bad person but DP is the only one who can see his friendly side. She is different from others.
"I have to go, I need to meet someone." Prey said.
"Just meet him other time." He grabbed her arm.
Justin can't deny that he's been infatuated of Prey since the first time he meets her but things get awkward when Prey has a boyfriend that time that's why Justin never got a chance to confess to his first love.
Jeffer witness Justin and Prey.
"Justin are you harassing her." It's not a question rather a statement.
Justin bit his lips he can't stand to see his cousin sudden interaction.
"Prey are okay? Is this guy bothering you?" Jeffer looks Prey with concerned.
She can't believe na makikita niya si Jeffer sa LiCorp at sumagi sa isip ni Prey na makikipagkita si Jeffer kay Yara that's why Jeffer is here.
"I can't believe you already move on to Miu." She blurted.
Justin smirk knowing that Prey is also annoyed by Jeffer.
Jeffer death stare his cousin.
"Come here, ihahatid na kita." Jeffer grab the arm of Prey para ipalayo kay Justin. He knows how capable his cousin doing a hideous things at ayaw niyang madamay ang mga importanting tao sa buhay niya.
"Let go of me." Prey said at binitiwan naman siya ni Jeffer.
"Prey I know nandito ka para makipagkita kay Yara. You can't blame her its all my fault." Jeffer reason out.
"I need to talk to you about Miu." He added.
"What? After you betray her? You have the audacity to keep in touch?"Prey blurted.
"Cous you are too much." Justin interrupt.
"Huwag kang makialam Justin. Prey you can't trust him." Jeffer being concern.
"Why?" She thought she can't trust him either after what Jeffer did to Miu.
"You can't trust a psychopath! He is under investigation Prey because he commits a hideous crime."
Justin can't believe how Jeffer spilling those issues he have.
"Do you still believe it? That I did it? How many time do I have to prove that I'm innocent." Justin gritted his teeth.
"I've know him first before you Jeffer!" Prey added.
"What?! you choose to believe him." Jeffer's brows almost meeting each other.
Justin can't take the words coming from the mouth of his cousin and now he is ready to punch him before that happens Prey hold his arm.
"Let's go Justin."
Justin soften when Prey hold his arm.

Now they are outside the building.
"Just wait here I'm gonna get my car." Justin said. Prey wants to refuse but she saw how Justin excited to be with her. Justin is like a brother to Prey's perception.
After a minute.
"Get in."
"How can I refuse you brat." Prey sigh as she defeated.
Prey is planning to meet Yara but the plan change because of Justin.
"You ruin my plan today Justin!" She blurted.
"I just want to talk to you longer."
"Why are you smiling Justin?"
"Did I?" Justin glance at her.
"Look in front brat! You are driving." Prey reminds him.
"Don't worry I'm a good driver."

They are in fancy restaurant.
"Who the hell is the father of that monster in your tummy?"
"Monster in my tummy? Do you want me to kick your butt Justin?!"
"Okay fine, I won't call him monster. Who is the unlucky guy?"
"Unlucky guy?! Justin you are so cute that I want to stitch your filthy mouth."
They bickering to each other.
"Wow you scared me." He act like he was scared to Prey and she smile.
...........

"Hey, LJ there is someone waiting for you." His co-blackbelter teacher calls him. Alam ni LJ pupuntahan siya ni Prey sa taekwondo class niya pero medyo napaaga yata but anyway he is excited to see his wife.
"Class I'll be back for a minute but meanwhile master Jeff will be teaching you how to kick properly."
"Yes, master!" The kids shout.
May nakita siya babaeng nakatalikod he smile as he thought that it will be his wife.
He smiles while tapping the back of her shoulder.
Lumingon ang babae at ngumiti rin ito sa kanya his eyes widened.
"Chantal."
She hug her.
"I miss you Lou John."
He parted the hug.
"What are you doing here?"
"I want to see you." She tries to hug him again pero umiwas si LJ.
"I was so wrong to let you go LJ, can't you see I still love you."
Napaubo si LJ sa sudden confession ng ex-girlfriend niya.
Alam ni LJ na hindi seryoso ang naging relasyon nila ni Chantal nung nasa America pa sila ni-minsan hindi niya ito minahal.
"I miss you LJ!"
"You miss him?"
LJ's in shock when he sees Prey and that Chantal girl looks at her for a moment.
"You said you miss him."
"Yes, I said I miss him." Chantal stares at Prey.
"Why would you say that Chantal and now it's a misunderstanding." LJ goes to Prey and hold her arm.
"Prey it's not want you are thinking she's my ex."
"Why are you explaining to her Lou John." Chantal getting pissed off.
Chantal's eyes almost pop out when she realizes the bloated tummy of Prey.
"Is she pregnant?"
"Did you seduce him bitch!" Chantal is in rage.
"Stop it Chantal!" LJ yell.
"You are right, I seduce him are you satisfied?!" Prey gets a little annoyed with Chantal.
"What?!"
"Come here! You can't make a scene here Chantal." LJ dragged her out.
"Don't come back. I don't want to see you anymore."

He found Prey sitting in the bench.
He smiles when he remember Prey said that she seduce him.
Prey glared at him.
"Why are you smiling? Aren't you guilty I discover your love affair."
"Aish, what are you saying she's my ex. Love affair my butt."
"But I like what you said." He added.
"I seduce him are you satisfied?" LJ copying the voice of Prey.
"Will you stop that!"
"Alright miss cold-hearted." He pout his lips like a child wants a candy.
"Can I lie your lap for a while?" He asked.
"You can Lie on that bench." She wants to avoid that she pointed an empty bench not too far.
LJ acted cute.
"Aw, I want to sleep in your lap and I want to hear the baby's hearbeat."
"Stop acting cute my hair is standing from embarrassment."
He pouted. Actually wala pang mga parents na naghihintay to fetch there kids.
"Fine, just for a moment."
Prey sighed deeply and give in.
LJ's face lighten.
"Just for now Prey." He lied down and closed his eyes.
