Back In Your Arms

Chapter 20

One day.

Agot: (pasok sa office ni Albert)

Albert: going somewhere?

Agot: (lapit kay Albert) since wala naman ako masyadong ginagawa today, I decided to fetch Alexa in school and have some girl bonding.

Albert: sasakyan ko na gamitin mo. (Give Agot the keys)

Agot: huwag na. Magtataxi nalang ako.

Albert: it would be very difficult for the body guards kung taxi ka.

Agot: we don't need guards.

Albert: just for precautionary measures sweetheart. I won't gamble our safety.

Agot: wala ka namang body guards growing up.

Albert: because we maybe a little well off but not to the point of needing protection. I've acquired so much throughout the years and has been a target for unscrupulous personalities. I just want you protected especially when I'm not with you.

Agot: fine. But ano gagamitin mo?

Albert: I can ride with my guards. Or use some of the company cars. Don't concern yourself about that. You girls just enjoy.

Agot: okay. (Lean towards Albert then kiss him on the lips) see you later.

Albert: have fun.

Umalis na din si Agot at pumunta sa school ni Alexa at inantay ang uwian niya. Andun na ang driver ni Alexa na naghahatid sundo sa kanya kaya pinabalik na niya yung driver na naghatid sa kanya para may magagamit na sasakyan si Albert.

Agot: (labas ng car ng makita si Alexa) hi baby!

Alexa: (natigilan) what are you doing here mo ?

Agot: (smile) I'm not doing so much at the office so I was thinking of taking you out for some girl bonding.

Alexa: saan naman tayo pupunta?

Agot: anywhere you want?

Alexa: shopping?

Agot: tamang tama, kakasweldo lang so let's go!

Alexa: why would you want to work when daddy gave you an allowance?

Agot: because I didn't marry your dad for his money. Iba pa din yung may sarili kang pera. Besides, I enjoy working with your dad, he's a brilliant businessman. You will learn a lot from him.

Alexa: (sakay na ng car)

Agot: do you want us to eat first before your shopping spree?

Alexa: sure mom.

Pumunta sila sa isang mall at naghanap ng gusto nila kainan and then nag order na sila.

Alexa: May pumunta sa school na talent scout mom, she wants to get me to model for a fashion show sa isang mall.

Agot: you're too young for modelling.

Alexa: I want to try it.

Agot: just focus on your studies.

Alexa: it's not as if I stop schooling. I just want to experience it.

Agot: ask your dad kung papayagan ka niya.

Alexa: payag ka ba?

Agot: if this once only and your grades won't suffer I can let you try it.

Alexa: I want to try it.
