CYRILLE GENESIS POV

*crash*

"Ahhhhhh!"

"Genesis!"

"Miss Genesis!"

"Teacher Genesis!"

"Are you okay?"

Napalingon ako sa nagsalita at wala sa sariling tumango "Thank you"

Tinulungan nya akong tumayo at napatingin ako sa bumagsak. Nilingon ko yung mga tao. Princess and Queen are talking to them

"Genesis....."

Napayakap ako kay Simon at binaon ang mukha sa dibdib nya

"Are you okay?"

Tumango ako at tumingin sa kanya "I'm just shocked. Anong nangyari? Why did it fell?"

"Aalamin ko. Thanks for saving Genesis, boss" sabi ni Simon at inakbayan ako

Napalingon ako sa tinawag nyang boss, yung nagligtas sakin. Si Mr. Lucas Bustamante. Nginitian ko sya at siniko si Simon sa tyan para mapabitaw sya sakin pero hindi nya yun ininda kaya hinayaan ko na "I can't thank you enough for saving me, Mr. Lucas. Maraming salamat talaga, kung hindi mo ako naiwas dun baka napano na ako"

He looked at me and smiled showing his perfect set of white teeth "How did you know my name?"

Kumunot ang noo ko pero pinalitan ko agad ng ngiti "You're Simon's boss and you're popular, lagi kang nasa TV. Lexie introduce you ealier as one of his Uncle, so technically I know your name"

Nilagpasan nya ako ng tingin pero agad ring nabalik "Don't mention it. That's adrenaline"

Tumango-tango ako at nginitian sya bago bumaling kay Simon "I'll talk to the maintenance and the operators baka alam nila kung bakit nangyari yun" sabi nya at nginitian ako bago umalis

Nagaalisan na yung mga tao. I looked at Princess and nodded my head, signalling him to follow Simon while Queen and Duchess are guiding the people out with the other stuffs

"Teacher, are you okay po?"

Napayuko ako at nginitian si Lexie "I'm okay, just shocked. How about you? Did it shocked you or scare you?"

"I was worried, Teacher" she said and hugged my waist. I caress her hair before kneeling para pantay kami. Good thing, my heels are just 2 inches high

"I'm fine, Lexie. Your Uncle Lucas saved me like a superhero"

"Then Uncle Lucas is your hero po?"

Nakangiwi akong ngumiti. Tsk! "Something like that. You should go home, it's late"

"It's just 5:30, Teacher. Still early po"

"Girls like you should be home before five pm and sleep before eight pm strikes. Don't you want to be more beautiful? You should go home, eat and sleep early to be more beautiful"

Her eyes widen "If I go home po and sleep early. I'll be more beautiful po, Teacher?"

Tumango-tango ako. Tsk! Nakauto nanaman ako tsk tsk! "That's the secret, Lexie"

Kumunot ang noo nya "If it's a secret, why did you tell it to me po?"

Natawa ako "Because I want to share it with you. Go home, Lexie"

Nginitian nya ako at hinalikan sa pisngi bago tumakbo papunta sa Daddy nya "Take care po, Teacher. I love you"

Kinindatan ko sya at nginitian "I love you too, Lexie Take care also"

Biglang sumulpot si Simon sa gilid ko "Maiiwan ako dito, Boss. Babantayan ko si Genesis" sabi nya na kinakunot ng noo ko

"Ano ako bata?" inis na bulong ko. Inismiran nya ako at tinignan ng masama

"Uncle Simon, update us po okay? So I know that Teacher Genesis is safe" sabi ni Lexie

"Lexie, don't worry too much for your Teacher Genesis. Uncle Simon is here to protect her and I will keep you updated, baby girl" sabi ng hudyo at inakbayan pa ako

"Wait lang po. Boyfriend nyo po ba si Uncle Simon, Teacher?"

Mabilis akong umiling at inalis ang pagkakaakbay sakin ni Simon "Nope. Hindi kami talo, Lexie"

She smiled from ear to ear "Yes! Daddy! Do a move! I want Teacher Genesis to be my Mom!"

Nanlaki ang mata ko at nagkatinginan kami ni Simon na pareho ng reaksyon sakin. Do a move? What the hell?

"Sorry, Miss Genesis. Makulit talaga si Lexie" sabi ni Mr. Lincoln habang nagkakamot ng ulo, nahihiya

"Dad, don't you want Teacher Genesis to be my Mom?" nakangusong sabi ni Lexie

"It's not that, sweetie. Mahirap lang talaga kapag hindi po lubusang kilala ang tao"

Mas humaba yung nguso ni Lexie "Okay, kung ayaw nyo po si Uncle Lucas nalang. They look good together naman po eh"

My jaw literally dropped and swallowed my saliva hard. Bata ba talaga 'to? Tsk!

"Lexie, stop it. Miss Genesis looks uncomfortable, stop match making her to me and your Uncle" sabi ni Mr. Lincoln dahilan para napatingin sila sakin

Awtomatiko akong ngumiti kay Lexie "Y-you should go h-home, L-lexie"

"Don't worry, Lexie. I'll make a move but maybe not now. It seems like your Teacher and I need to know each other first"
