AIDAN

"Lo, I'm home, " bigkas ko pagkapasok sa aming mansyon. Our mansion is really big, it was enough to filled hundreds of people. Pero iilan lang naman ang nakatira rito, kaya napakatahimik. Payapa pa rin kaya madalas pinapasyalan ng mga turista. Kung ibang tao ang may-ari nito, hindi ito matatapakan ng ibang tao. Preservations and stuffs but my grandfather is so nice. Mabait ito sa lahat ng tao.

"Iho kamusta ang byahe?" si Manang Mely, mayordoma namin. She's been working with us since my father was born. Para ko na rin siyang lola dahil wala naman siyang ibang pamilya bukod sa'min.

"It was tiring and I have many works to do Manang but I still want to go home. May usapan po kami ni Lolo, I miss him."

"Namimiss ka rin ni Don Dan, hindi nga halos mapakali at sobrang agang magising dahil darating raw ang pinakapaborito niyang apo, " tawa ni Manang.

"I am his only grandson Manang, " I laughed with her as I hear my grandfather's footsteps towards us.

"Aidan apo, kamusta? Kumain ka na ba? Magpahinga ka kaya muna at baka pagod ka sa byahe, " sunod-sunod na turan ni Lolo. He's always excited about me going home.

"Lo, I'm fine. But I'm kinda hungry 'cause I only ate through drivethru."

"Mely maghanda ka ng makakain ni Aidan, " mahinahong sambit ni Lolo habang umuupo sa aking harapan.

Umalis si Manang patungong kusina para ihanda ang kakainin ko. Naglapag si Lolo ng isang envelope sa harapan ko.

"What's this, Lo?" I immediately opened it and I'm really shocked on what's written on it.

"Lo, why are you giving this mansion to a charity?"

"I'm not, " tipid na sagot ni Lolo.

"But it states he-" he cut my words off.

"Only if you didn't show in front of me with a child of yours. Aidan, apo matanda na ang Lolo gusto kong makita kang magkaroon ng pamilya. Kanino mo maipapamana ang mga ari-arian natin kung hindi ka magkakaanak, " mahabang litanya niya.

Here we go again. I don't really like this topic, I've no plans of settling and definitely having a child of my own. I'm still exploring and enjoying my life as a bachelor and marrying and having a child will surely ruin it.

"Lo, baka luto na yung pagkain ko. You know, I'm really famished as of now, " tawa ko at akmang tatayo na nang pigilan ako ni Lolo.

"This is a serious matter Aidan. You're not getting any younger," seryosong-seryoso si Lolo at natatakot ako. Mukhang mababali ko ang mga pangako ko sa sarili ko. Damn.

"But still handsome like you Lolo, " pambobola ko dito.

"Hindi mo ako maloloko sa paganyan-ganyan mo Aidan. Hindi habang-buhay ay maglalaro ka. You need a child whom can inherit all of this. The mansion, the farm and and my company. "

"But I don't want to get married Lo. Wala pa akong nakikitang papasa sa taste ko para maging asawa," bored kong saad. I don't really like this topic, masakit sa ulo.

"Choosing a woman to marry is not like choosing a coffee or some jewelries, apo. And if your really didn't want to marry then I have no choice but to give this mansion to a charity, " he said that made me shock and unable to move. He better not be serious. I want this mansion.

"Again, Aidan think of this. I don't want to do this to you but if this is the only way para mapabuti ka, I'll gladly will."

Mapabuti? I don't want to get married. Being married to someone will only cause trouble. Maraming problema ang kakaharapin and worst is having a child will ruined the peace I build for myself.
