IKALIMANG KABANATA
"So, Mr. Sandoval, anong napili mo?" I asked Yana's father na hanggang ngayon ay busy sa pag iikot sa opisina ko habang nakanganga.
"Ikaw ang may ari ng EYS Real Estate?" hindi makapaniwala nitong sabi. Hindi ko siya pinansin at pinaglaruan lang ang gitara ko.
"Pero hindi sakop ng mga Montreal ang EYS.." bulong nito. Natawa na ako.
"Sa tingin mo ba talaga, mabubuhay ako sa anino ng apelyido ko Sir? Kaya kong umunlad kahit walang tulong na manggagaling sa pamilya ko."
"And may I remind you that EYS Real Estate has your company already embargoed on the market.Kapag tumawag na ako, magsisimula na ang bidding para maibenta na ito at tuluyan ng mawala sayo. Kung mali ang pipiliin mo ngayon, then poof!! Your company became Koko Krunch! Wala na!" I told him at ginaya pa si Vhong sa pagsasabi ng wala na. He smirked at me before shaking his head.
"You can't scare me. kung sana ang ama mo o si Alexander ang nagsasabi nito, baka uubra. But you? Dream on, kid. You're not as ruthless as the other Montreal." Proud niya pang sabi. Natawa ako then took my guitar again.
"I will not cancel the engagement of my daughter to Adam Samaniego." Matatag pa nitong sabi, expecting me to beg for Yana's engagement to be canceled. I shrug then put my earphones on and rested my legs on the table.
"Okay."
"Okay?" taka nitong tanong. Ngumiti ako.
"Wala na akong magagawa kung hindi kita matatakot. Wala na rin akong magagawa kung hindi mo ipapatigil ang kasalan. Wala na rin akong magagawa dahil ayaw ni Yana na makinig sa akin."
He looked as if he was relieved. Umiling ito bago tumayo but I called him again.
"You're right Sir. I am not as ruthless as my father and my brother in terms of business."
Ngumisi ito na para bang nanalo sa lotto. Tumayo na ako and went to him.
"Ruthless is an understatement Sir. Demonyo ako. At kung hindi ka pa matatakot, ewan ko na lang sayo."
And that was enough to turn his face as white as paper.

Kissing you was not what I had planned
And now I'm not so sure just where I stand
I wasn't looking for true love
But now you're looking at me
