Zach's POV



"Philippines' temperature never change at all. It's hot as ever." Canova said and blow a loud breath.

"Maarte ka lang talaga, Noah. We always visit this country for missions but here you are and still not used to the temperature." Géricault said but still helps Canova to take off his jacket.

"Because it's really hot, Paul. I feel like my skin will get toasted. Look! My skin is red now!" Canova exclaimed making other people look at out direction.

"Stop it, you two." Hindi na mapigilan ni David na hindi pansinin ang dalawa.

"The van is here." Imporma ko dahilan para matahimik naman na silang lahat. Ilang sandali lang ay tumigil na ang puting van sa harapan namin. Barye opened the door for me while the others put our luggages inside the Van.

"Saan tayo dederitso, Boss?" Barye asked after taking off his headphone.

"In one of my house here." I answered while looking at Canova that was eating a chocolate bar together with Géricault.

Canova is close to every Superiors, except on one person, and that's me.

"Are you hungry, Boss?" Géricault asked when he noticed that I'm looking at them. They used to call me, boss, when the job is part of Underworld and they called me, my lord, if we are in Upperworld.

"Yeah. But I don't like sweets. Ilang minuto pa bago tayo makarating sa bahay?" Tanong ko at napunta ang paningin kay Ingres.

"Ten minutes or more, Boss. We can buy foods in drive thru if you're really hungry." Suhestiyon nito matapos sagutin ang tanong ko.

"I'm not that hungry---"

"Here. Eat this." Canova suddenly hand me a moon cake.

"Hey, that's rude." Suway sa kaniya ni Rude.

"Coming from you that truly a rude one, Rude." Canova nonchalantly said. He's not afraid of Rude. No, he's not afraid of anyone, even me.

"Forgive him, boss. He's really stubborn and walang-hiya sometimes." Géricault said apologetic voice.

"Hey! I'm not walang-hiya, Paul. Take it back. Take it back." Agad na depensa ni Canova.

"No, you are walang-hiya, Noah. Accept it." Paul said without hesitation. He knows Canova so much.

"Mean! Boo!" When Canova said those lines we all just shake our heads.

He is really a childish one.

Napunta naman ang tingin ko sa hawak na moon cake at napangiwi na lang. Canova more like to eat other countries' food more than the food in his own country.

Maybe I should eat this later...

Nang makarating sa bahay ay agad naman kaming sinalubong ng mga maids at butlers. Bawat isa sa amin ay may tig-isang butlers dito sa bahay.

"It's been a long time, my lord." Magalang na bati ng sarili kung butler at magalang itong yumukod simbolo ng paggalang. He's a pure Filipino. He's the one who thought me Filipino language and how to speak it and the meaning of it.

I have one in Paris too but he's a pure French though. In one household where I live, I have one butler. Same goes for my Superiors. Kahit boss nila ako ay hindi maitatangging mayayaman at kilala ang pamilyang pinanggalingan nila.

Sila ang napili sa bawat Familia para magsilbi sa akin. Noah Canova is from the Canova Familia of Italy. Lazarus Englues Ingres is from Ingres Familia of France. Jacob David is from the David Familia of France. Abraham Ac Rude is from the Rude Familia of France. Elijah Thorvaldsen is from the Thorvaldsen Familia of Denmark. Paul Ml Géricault is from the Géricault Familia of France. And, Thomas Barye is from the Barye Familia of France.
