"Simula ngayon ay si Mr. Vermont na ang magiging bagong bodyguard mo", saad nito na ikinatigil ko.
Is this a big joke?
"You're not serious, right?", paniguro ko.
"I'm sorry, apo but I am", sagot na ikinaawang ng labi ko.
Napabaling ang tingin ko sa binata na ngayon ay titig na titig sa akin. I can sense something in his dark brown eyes.
"But grandpa!", protesta ko.
"My decision is final. Si Corby na ang pinaka magbabantay sa'yo so you better behave", my lolo warningly said.
Naisandal ko ang likuran sa sofa at matalim na tiningnan si Corby.
Anong plano nito at pumayag sa kagustuhan ng lolo ko?
Pinaramdam ko sa mga titig ko sa binata na ayokong maging bodyguard ito.
"Can I talk to her first, Mr. Lucio?"
"Yes, sure"
Anong meron kay Corby at napaka laki ng tiwala ni lolo rito?
"Ayokong maging bodyguard ka!", I said. "Humindi ka kay lolo. Hwag kang pumayag", dagdag ko.
Ngumisi ito na ikinainis ko lalo. "Paano kung...ayoko?", hamon nito.
This man. He's getting into my nerves.
"If your grandpa is having a hard time to discipline you then I'll be the one to do it for him. Try me... ", ang boses nito ay mahina lang pero mapanganib ang dating.
"And I bet malaking halaga ang binayad sa'yo ni lolo para gawin ito."
"You got it wrong, honey. I'm doing this for...free, mapatino lang kita."
"Pamilya ko nga hindi ako masaway. Ikaw pa kaya? You're not even belong to our family."
"But let me remind you, Ms. Wilona Corliss Alvero. I'm your contact person. Hindi mo nga ako kapamilya pero ginawa mo naman akong guardian mo. Baka gusto mo na ring gamitin ang apelyido ko?"
Natigilan ako sa narinig.
He actually caught me there...
