The Mafia's Slave Part 1 & 2

"Ako na gagawa ng mga dapat mong gawin." Sabi ko kay Monique. 

"Pero..."

"Magpagaling ka para sa party." I said to her. Bumuntong hininga na lang siya. Nandito kami ngayon sa coffee shop at pinapauwi ko na sila ni Queenie. Her parents understand what happened. Mababait din kasi sila at alam kong nag-aalala sila para kay Monique. 

"I'm sorry Maxene." She sighed. I gave her  a faint smile at hinatid na siya papunta sa kotse nila. May driver na sila ngayon dahil hindi kayang magdrive ni Monique. 

"I heard what happened." Madam SC told me ng makalapit ako sa kanya. Lagi siyang andito kapag shift ko. Sabi nga nina Ate Anna baka nga daw ako lagi ang sadya niya dito. Para siguro lagi akong pagtripan. 

TSk. 

"What's your order ma'am?" I asked her. "And by the way, you're turning 67 already." I smirked. Sumama ang tingin niya sakin. 

"And so what if I am?" mataray na tanong nito. 

"Hinay-hinay sa blood pressure, baka biglaan kayong kunin ni Lord." 

She clenched her jaw at akmang sisigawan ko but I raised my hand to stop her. 

"You look like you're turning 77 sa sobrang sungit niyo." I mocked but my eyes widen when she burst out laughing. Pati yung driver niya nakikitawa rin. Napangiwi na lang ako, what's wrong with them?

"I wanna personally give this to you." She chuckled. She gave me an invitation card for her birthday. I was puzzled. Kumunot ang noo ko feeling ko tuloy may masama silang balak. 

"What for?" I asked her and opened the invitation card. 

"Wala naman baka kasi hindi ka nila nabibigyan, only daughters of well known family ang pwedeng pumunta sa party unless you'll be a date, which I think impossible namang mangyari." She smirked. I clenched my jaw, she's insulting me again. 

"FYI, Madam SC, your grandson asked me to be his date." Nanlaki ang mga mata niya tapos bigla siyang tumawa. 

"For real? Siya siguro ang may balak na masama sa'yo. Knowing Waldrin, allergic yun sa mga babae." She chuckled. 

"I declined him anyway, allergic din naman ako sa mga gatherings." I said at inilapag yung card sa table niya. 

"No, you have to come. Accept his invitation. Or else ipapademolish ko itong coffee shop nina Monique." She smirked. Napasinghap ako sa sinabi niya. She's so heartleass! I gritted my teeth. 

"Umorder ka na nga lang PO.!" I hissed and she laughed.

"I need to see your designs." Waldrin said. Talking about rich kids, nasa loob lang naman kami ng isang botique na mamahalin ang dating. They're treating Waldrin like he's a VIP or what. May binigay sila saking portfolio. I fixed my glasses and looked at the designs.
