MS 2: To Own Her (Completed)

Chapter 35

#MSeries

As planned, I visited my father's office to invoice my concerns. Hindi ko siya mahagilap sa bahay kaninang umaga kaya sinadya kong umalis ng maaga sa site para maabutan pa siya rito at manghingi ng kunting oras para rito. Sigurado ako na kapag umabot pa ito sa bahay mamaya ay magiging busy na naman siya sa kanyang study room.

I walked confidently in his floor's lobby at four in the afternoon. His secretary outside acknowledge my arrival and sent me inside his office. His back welcomed me as he looked over the outside view of his glass wall. Nakapamulsa at iilang paghinga ang pinakawalan. And when he heard the sound of my shoes he immediately turn around.

"Martina, what brings you here?"bungad niya sa akin.

Lumapit ako kung saan siya nakatayo. I didn't say anything yet and process the exact words first before need telling him. Ever since, we don't usually talk about random things nor the important once. I'm the typical daughter who will listen and understand the fact that I don't have the right to share my opinions but now everything inside me is too much to handle.

"It must be important..."aniya

I sighed and smiled at my honored parent.

"Last night when I was over thinking about my personal issues I've heard something..."I paused and witnessed how his brows furrowed, "Dad, bababa kana sa position mo at ipapalit ako?"

Unti unting nawala ang kunot sa kanyang noo at nagbaba ng tingin. His eyes remains outside for a moment. Tumikhim siya biglang paghahanda sa kanyang mga sasabihin.

"Wala paman akong planong magpakasal ulit ay planado ko na ang lahat, Martina. You are my only child and this company is yours. Pinaghirapan ko ang lahat para kung sakaling mawala man ako ay may maiiwan para sa'yo upang mabuhay ka. You know, you can live up your life without working as long as you have trusted people on your side. I'm sure it's His well. His well to let me manage everything so when the time comes, sa iyo ang lahat ng ito."saka tumingin sa akin na may ngiti sa labi.

"As what I've heard to Haide last night she wants Rocco to have a part of this company too. And I think marrying you will make it easier to give him some shares. Sabihin mo nga sa akin, dad mahal kaba talaga ni Haide?"

Walang kahit anong emosyon ang dumaan sa kanyang mukha. Nanatili lang ang titig niya sa akin.

"Or you're just letting her use you so her son will have shares in our company? I highly doubt that you'll let that happen."subok ko.

He only chuckled. "You are smart. Kayang kaya mong umupo at mamahala ng mag isa. You won't need another person to weigh in things, Martina. Now answer me, will you be needing Rocco in the near future? Dahil kung Oo ay bibigyan ko siya ng posisyon..."

"It's still early for conclusions!"I cut him.

"Sa bagay..."bumuga siya ng paghinga. "Is that all?"

"If you won't give Rocco any of those high positions will she be mad at you, dad?"

"Even so. I won't risk this for your future. By they way, how are you Carlos been doing?"

Umurong ang mga sasabihin ko pa sana dahil sa tanong niya. I find it awkward for him to ask about my personal life events but his my father after all.

"Well, we're good..."

Nag aabang ang kanyang malapad na ngiti kaya umirap ako.

"It's not what you think, dad. We're getting to know each other and who knows."I shrugged.

"As long as you're happy that's all that matters to me."aniya

I pursed my lips and looked away.
