Politician Series 2: The Governor's Secret Affliction [ COMPLETED]

13

Samasama kaming kumain ni Lucian ng breakfast kinaumagahan. Alam kona din na napapansin ng ibang mga katulong ang pagbabago namin. I dont know what happened pero mas lalo na siyang caring ngayon. Siya pa nga ang nag lagay ng ulam sa plate ko.

"Enough na ito Gov, masyado mo na akomg binusog" pagpatigil ko ng akmang lalagyan na naman niya ako ng ulam.

" You lost wait" taka ko syang tuningnan. Hindi nga ako masyadong kumain sa mga nagdaang buwan simula nung makasama ko sya dito pero bakit napansin niya ang pagbawas ng timbang ko? "Eat more" wala akong nagawa ng hinainan naman niya ako ng pagkain. Masarap din namanang ulam kaya okay na. " Do you want to come with me? " Biglang pag tanong niya. _I can take you at my work and introduce you as my personal assistant" suggestions na. We both agree kasi kagabi na walang makaka alam sa weeding namin para sa kaligtasan ko.

" You will do that?" I asked, slightly surprised. I wanted to accompany him, but I was hesitant, especially given the ongoing issue. I was worried that someone might notice the resemblance between me and the mysterious girl.

Lucian nodded confidently. "Yes, I think it would be a good idea. Besides, I want to have you by my side, Sonne. It would make me feel more at ease."

His words warmed my heart, and I couldn't help but smile. Despite the challenges we were facing, he still wanted to include me in his life and provide me with a sense of security. I realized that together, we could face anything that came our way.

"Alright," I said, finally giving in. "I'll come with you, but let's be cautious and ensure that our secret remains safe."

Lucian's face lit up with a mix of relief and excitement. "Thank you, Sonne. Don't worry, I'll make sure that everything goes smoothly."

After the breakfast ay umakyat ako para maligo at mag bihis. Habang naghahanap ako ng susuotin ko ay may katok mula sa pintuan kaya binuksan ko iyon to see Nana Carmen holding a clothes.

"I am happy for the both of you Sonne. Dahil sa iyo nakikita ko na muli ang Arthuro na inaalagaan ko" ngumit ko kay nana dahil siya naman ang dahilan ng lahat nang ito. Kung hindi lang sa mga encouraging words na sknabi niya ay noon pa man nahgi-give up na ako.

Nana Carmen handed me the clothes. It was a white shirt that fit perfectly on my body, along with a black cardigan that matched a black skirt that hugged my curves. I put on some light makeup before styling my hair.

I remembered the first time she saw the color of my hair. She said it suited me well. Now, I needed to thank Sky for that suggestion.

As I finished getting ready, Lucian appeared at the door, looking at me with admiration. "You look stunning," he said, his voice filled with genuine appreciation.

I blushed and smiled. "Thank you, Gov. You don't look too bad yourself," I replied, teasing him playfully.

He chuckled and extended his arm towards me. "Shall we go, my personal assistant?"

Nang makarating kami sa kapitol ay agad na akong dumistansya sa kanya. A lot of employee here greeted sa kanya pero tumango lang sya at tipid ngumiti. Hindi pa din kami agad naka pasok sa elevator dahil may matandang kumausap sa kanya. Tulad ng sabi niya, he introduce me as personal assistant.

"Uy ang ganda naman ng personal assistant mo Governor" sabi ng matamda at sinuyod ang tingin ko.

"I know, Thank you for sharing me about this issue Congressman, now can we excuse ourselves? We are in a rush " tumango ang congressman kaya pumasok na kami sa elevator. The capitol building was a hive of activity, bustling with government officials, staff members, and visitors. Lucian's role as the governor meant that he had many responsibilities and duties to fulfill.

As we stepped out of the elevator, Lucian led the way to his office while I followed closely behind him. The office was spacious and well-decorated, reflecting the significance of his position. I took a moment to appreciate the view from the window, seeing the city stretched out before me.

Lucian turned towards me, a serious expression on his face. "Sonne, I want to thank you for coming with me today. It means a lot to have you here."

Ngumiti ako sa kanya"Of course, Lucian. I'm here to support you in any way I can." Magiliw na sagot ko sa kanya.

Bumalik sya sa table niya at may kung anong hinanap. "I have a series of meetings and appointments throughout the day, but I'll make sure to introduce you to the staff and ensure you're comfortable. If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask."

Nagsimula ang araw niya sa meeting ng ibat ibang mga mayor. Medyo namangha ako dahil almost mga mayor dito ay mga kaedad lang ni Lucian, wala ka masyadong makikita na 40 plus ang edad. He introduce me to them at agad naman silang nag tanguan. Habang nakikinig si Lucian ay naka tayo lang ako sa likod niya.
At one point, someone suggested that I take a seat beside him, but I politely declined. I didn't want any special treatment or to distract from the matters at hand.They are only discussing about the issue from different barangays and cities and I admire Lucian for listening all the issues and na recite pa niya iyon pagkatapos ng meeting. After discussing ay Nag plano naman sila. First nilang solutionan ay iyong bridge na matagal na dawng kono complain nga mga tao doon.

Lucian facilitated the discussion, encouraging collaboration among the mayors and their teams. He listened to their suggestions and offered his insights, considering the feasibility and impact of each proposal.

I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and admiration for Lucian's dedication to improving the lives of the people in his jurisdiction. His leadership skills and ability to navigate complex situations were commendable.

As the day progressed, Lucian's schedule was packed with meetings, briefings, and phone calls. He effortlessly moved from one task to another, his focus unwavering.

During a brief break, Lucian approached me with a concerned look. "Sonne, I apologize for the busy schedule. Are you holding up okay?"

" Ano kaba okay lang, at ang pagiging governor mo ay mahalaga kaya naintindihan kita"

As the day wore on, I continued to observe Lucian in action, amazed by his ability to handle the demands of his position with grace and determination. He addressed each issue and concern with care, making sure that the voices of the people were heard and taken into account.

Throughout the meetings, Lucian introduced me to various staff members, and they welcomed me with friendly smiles and greetings. I was grateful for their warm reception and felt encouraged by their support.

As the discussion shifted to finding a solution for the long-standing issue with the bridge, Lucian encouraged the mayors and their teams to collaborate and brainstorm ideas. He facilitated a productive dialogue, ensuring that everyone's input was valued. Gumawa pa sila mg reports kung mag Kano ang maigasto nika sa bridge na ito. It cost 10 million lang knowing na isa iyon sa mga malalaking bridge ang e-fix nila. Mas lalo akomg humahanga sa kanya ng nag donate pa sya ng 5 million para sa bridge.

"Heyy get some rest naman, you look tired na oh" pag tawag ko sa kanya nang may organization namang humingi ng tulong.

Lucian glanced at me, a mixture of gratitude and weariness in his eyes. "I know, Sonne. But there's still so much to do. I want to make a difference."

I stepped closer to him and gently placed my hand on his arm. "I understand your dedication, Lucian. But taking care of yourself is just as important. You won't be able to help others if you're exhausted."

He sighed, realizing the truth in my words. "You're right, as always. I'll try to delegate some tasks and take breaks when needed."

I smiled reassuringly. "That's the spirit. Remember, you have a team supporting you. You don't have to shoulder everything alone."

Lucian nodded appreciatively and then leaned down to kiss my forehead. "Thank you, Schatje . Your presence and concern mean the world to me."Nagulat ako sa ginawa niya! I mean who wouldn't?

Isang governor naman ba ang humalik sa noo mo!
