The Secret Mistress

Side story

Daing ng lalaki bago nawalan ng malay.

"Oh tsk tsk tsk... You're in trouble now."

Pagkasabi ay bigla niya akong hinila at napatakbo ako ng wala sa oras dahil tumakbo rin siya.

"Hey why are we running?!"

"Shhh! Don't look back!"

Dahil curious ako, I look back and to my surprise... It was a bunch of people with cameras.

Napatingin ako sa babaeng hawak hawak ang kamay ko. Who in the world is she?

Huminto kami sa ilalim ng malaking tulay. Hinihingal siya pero nakangisi.

"It's fun right? Hahahaha!"

"It's fun to dressed up as a nurse too right?"

Nawala ang ngisi niya at sumeryoso.

"You found it."

"Who are you?" Lumapit ako sa kaniya.

"Ah seriously hindi mo ako kilala? Kahit sinabi ko na ang pangalan ko? Ni hindi mo manlang sinearch?" Kumunot noo siya at tila namumula.

"Bakit kita isesearch?"

Nagtatakang tanong ko, nagsalubong pa rin ang kilay nito.

"You p*nk! How dare you! Kinalimutan mo ba ako ha?! Four months mo lang akong hindi nakita tapos nakalimutan mo na ako?! Parang hindi kita na comfort ah! Etong ganda kong 'to kinalimutan mo?! Ha!" Ako naman ang napaatras dahil sa dinuduro niya ako at sinisigawan.

"Shhh! That's not the issue. Pwede mo naman sabihin kung sino ka bakit ko isesearch?" Tinakpan ko ang butas ng tainga ko sa ingay niya.

"Nakakainis ka na talaga... I'm the famous Karlainne  Caspiro! An actress! That guy kanina he's a stalker!"

"Actress..." Wala sa sariling wika ko.

"Oo!yes! Hindi ka ba nanonood ng TV ha?!"
She's furious.

"Hindi."

Natampal niya ang noo niya.

"Whatever. By the way bring me to your house, I have no place to stay in right now." Muli na naman niyang hinila ang kamay ko.

"Huh? Wait. May anak na ako as in tatay na ako. Hindi appropriate na dalhin---"

"Ha! Oh ano naman? Alam ko na 'yon matagal na. Dalhin mo na ako daliiii pagod na ako kakatakbo."

Teka... Ano?

"What..."

Hindi ako makapaniwala sa babaeng ito.  She's unbelievable rude lady.

Hindi pa rin ako makampante dahil andami kong tanong pero walang lumalabas sa bibig ko. I'm affraid to ask a questions.

We started to walk, but she stop for a moment.

"Levi... Kilala kita matagal na. I watched you from a far."

Huminto rin ako at tinignan siya. What is she talking about? Umaakto ba siya? pinagpapraktisan niya ba ako? If it is, hindi nakakatuwa.

"Maybe you are not interested in me at all dahil hindi ka nga nag abala na isearch ako. You can reach me naman kung gugustuhin mo eh. I am always waiting for you. But I guess I can't anymore dahil sa ayaw at gusto mo you'll like me eventually."

I smirk. Bakit ba ang tapang nito? Her words are full of confidence.

"Kahit na may anak na ako?" Hamon ko sa kaniya. Actually I'll just provoke her but I didn't expect her answer.

"Kahit pa college student ako, kahit pa artista ako at kahit pa malaman ng buong mundo. I have waited a long time... Kahit hindi ito ang perfect time, I can always use any number from the clock kahit pa ubusin ko ang numero. I'll cease every opportunity Levi... Because I love you."

It's unbelievable... Really. Am I dreaming, how come this successful and a lady who look like a calm flower want me?

Actually isa siyang matinik na bulaklak na nakakatakot hawakan.

"Are you perhaps playing on me lady?" If yes, please don't dahil ayoko ng gulo.

"I'm serious you idi*t!"

Nagulat ako sa sigaw niya. I sigh again dahil she keep amusing me. Inangkla niya ang braso niya sa akin at nagsimula na kaming maglakad.

"Then keep dreaming lady, binabalaan kita you can't win my kids permission at kahit pa makuha mo you'll get tired of me by the time comes."

I mumbled.

"I heard it. No no no, you're wrong. Iwan ka man ng lahat, maliban sa akin because Levi if you know me you'll get addicted hahahaha."

"I hate your confidence."

"It's scary right?"

"Yeah."

We both laugh.

"Prepare yourself Levi because I won't let you go. No women can stole you from me from now on and I'll make you happy."

"You are giving me a goosebumps. How about my kid?"

"They are mine too of course, ano tingin mo sa akin witch sa fairy tale?"

Yes. Oo. I'm affraid na malason sa bawat salita mo. I look at her and smile, she's just a child Levi, patience... She'll leave you too.

The end.
