Wanting my Dad so called Mistress

Chapter 13

My eyebrows creased while looking at the two people just a few meters away from me.

Tapos na ang ribbon cutting but these two hindi na yata naghiwalay kanina pa kakausap.

May iilan padin mga media pero hindi kona pinansin pa.

Lumapit ako kay Dad ng tawagin nya ako para sa isang picture.

"Much better if we include the architects and engineers"

They called all of them while I remain on my place.

Tumabi sila samin but since I have a wicked thought hinigit ko si Jo sa tabi ko.

I shamelessly wrap my arms on her waist na ikinagulat din nya.

Architect Morgan on the other side ay wala ng nagawa dahil sa tabi ni Jo ay si Vanessa na ang nakatayo.

Architect Morgan is tall, dark and handsome. May issue din na may something sa kanila ni Jo before pero wala akong pakialam.

I just want Jo to stay by my side as of now even tho I don't know why I want it that way.

After makunan ng litrato binitawan kona sya at humarap kay Dad.

"Mabuti at nakadating ka"- sabi ni Dad kay Jo.

I look at the both of them. My dad is smiling pero simpleng ngiti lang ang ginawad ni Jo sa kanya.

"Mahihindian ko po ba kayo?"- sabi nya na ikinasalubong ng kilay ko.

"I know you can't"- natatawang sabi ni Dad.

Bumaling naman sakin si Dad.

"Tanya this is Architect Morgan. I presume you haven't talk to him?"- Dad said

"I saw him before"- I trailed off pero tinanggap ko pa din ang kamay nito.

"It's a pleasure to meet you"- he said with a ghost of smile on his lips.

Nakita kona sya 5 months ago.. Pero hindi kona man sya nilapitan. Mas gusto ko kasing Architect nuon ay itong babaeng katabi ko na umalis na walang paalam.

"Thank you for continuing what Architect Martinez didn't finish at all"

Sinulyapan ko si Jo na nakatingin din pala sakin.

"Oh it's nothing. It's our job"- he said.

Nginitian kona lang sya.

"Excuse me"

Lumayo ako sa kanila at hinanap ang secretary ko.

"Yes maam?"

"Where is my best friend?"

Kanina ko pa hindi nakikita ang pang asar nyang mukha.

"Maam lahat po ng invited nandito na"

Iniwan kona man ito para bumalik sa loob .

"Tanya!"

I stop and look back at isang flash ng camera ang sumalubong sakin.

"Ang ganda mo talaga!"- she said pero inirapan ko lang sya.

"Kanina pa kita gustong makita"

"Bakit miss mo ako?"

"Basagin ko kaya yan camera mo?"

"Hahaha , biro lang. Grabe buti kapa paganto ganto lang!"- she said as she roam her eyes on the new building we're in.

"Anong lang?, minsan nga naisip ko bakit nagustuhan ko ang business e ang andaming ginagawa"

"Kaya nga ayaw ko ng ganito. Napipigilan kang gawin ang gusto mo"

She shrieked making me furrowed my eyebrows at her.

"Oh my gosh who is that handsome?!"

Halos hampasin ko na sya dahil kinikilig sya habang nakatingin kay Architect Morgan.

"Wait lang ha"

My lips parted when I saw her shamelessly go to where Jo and Architect was.

Sinundan kona man sya pero natigilan ako ng makita kong nagtabi ang dalawa.

Alejandro held Jo on her waist and they both smile at the picture.

Nilingon ako ni Leil.

"Sumama ka nga sa kanila"- she said

Pinanliitan kona man sya ng mga mata.

"Why?, hindi mo ba matiis lapitan ang so called mistress ni Tito Apollo?"- she whispered ng makatabi ako sa kanya.

I look at her way.

"What are you talking about?"- I muttered

She teasingly smiled at me.

"Come on Tanya, we all know she isn't that kind of woman. I don't see anything bad at her"

"Me too.."- I whispered

"Then what are you waiting for?, I know you like her.Why don't you take this chance?"

Naiinis na binalingan ko ulit sya at tinaasan ng kilay.

"Anong like?"

"Tss..don't me Tanya. I know that look in your eyes. The last time I saw that was when your crush dated someone else and not you"

"Your point is?"

"You like her and you don't want her to be with this handsome Architect"- she said at mahinang humagikgik sa tabi ko.

Tinulak kona man sya ng bahagya.

Hahakbang na sana ako palayo ng marinig kong tinawag nya si Jo.

Anak ng animal naman oh!

"Athena wanna have some picture with you"- rinig ko pang sabi nito.

Pagharap ko sumalubong sakin ang nagtatanong na mga mata ni Jo.

"Come on Tanya. Dun kana sa tabi nya"

Tinulak tulak pa ako nito kaya para tuloy akong nagmukhang teenager na nahihiyang magpapicture sa crush nya na nakita nya sa isang lugar.

Tumayo ako sa tabi nito at humarap na kay Leil.

"Para naman kayong magkaaway nyan. Try to move with each other please.."

Kinagat ko ang labi ko bago umusod ng kaunti pero hindi pa yata nakuntento si Leil at bahagya pa akong itinulak causing for me to bumped with Jo's body.

She raise her head to meet my brooding eyes. Her brown eyes was looking at me in a way I can't explain at nauuhaw lamang ako ng makita kong nakaawang ng bahagya ang manipis nyang labi.

"Ah guys nandito yung camera"

Sabay pa kaming lumingon kay Leil.

"I want this to be over"- I murmured to myself.

I glance at Jo when I heard her soft giggles beside me.

"You don't really wanna be with me don't you?"- I heard her said whilst looking infront.

"You have no any idea.."- How much I wanted to be with you..

"Stop pretending that you don't. You already shamelessly touched me earlier. Why can't you touch me again Lou?"

Ako lang ba? O talagang nakakakit ang boses nya sa tuwing binabanggit nya ang nickname ko na gawa nya.

"You want me.."- she trailed off.

She glance at me and smirk kaya lalong nagsalubong ang kilay ko.

"Don't play with me"- masungit na sabi ko

Humarap nako sa camera at ngumiti. But my smile faltered when I felt a hand hold my arm.

I saw Leil smiled teasingly at me before she count one to three and click her camera to capture me and this crazy woman beside me who is holding my precious arm.
