“Mumsh? You there?” Diane speaks behind the door.
“Shit!” I hissed and Martina chuckles.
“Later, hunk,” she laughs before opening the door herself.
“I need to talk to you,” Diane uttered as soon as Martina guided her in.
“Privately.”
They both looked at me like asking a permission and I nod.
Lumapit ako kay Martina, “I'll just fetch you later,” sabi ko at muling humalik sa mga labi nito.
“Just here to tell you that I can't attend the meeting with the new investor later.”
“Where are you going?” Her eyebrow rises.
“I just need to meet someone.”
“Meet... okay,” tumango-tango pa ito.
Natawa naman ako sa inasta niya. Oh, how I love someone who gets jealous through nothing. She loves me, I know.
“Babe, it's a client, and is a man. Don't have to act suspiciously.”
“I didn't say anything. Go na, baka mahuli ka pa sa meeting niyo ng client mo,” pagtataboy nito sa akin.
“I'll be here before you know it.” I kiss her lips again before bidding goodbye to the two of them.
Mukhang importante rin kasi ang pag-uusapan nila kaya mabuti pang hayaan na muna sila. Anyway, Diane looks so bothered. She's even different since....
“Matty,” Jacob called.
“Jacob, can you stop calling me Matty? Nakakabakla kasi, saka, aren't you aware na you look so gorgeous just to be a gay? Tayo pa namang dalawa ang natatanging Mondragon na siyang muling magpaparami—”
“Okay, cut it, Matthew. Ugh, if you only knew....” Teka, may LQ ba sila ni Diane? Mukhang pareho silang problemado ah.
“Ang alin? May plano ka na bang magbalik-loob?” I smirked.
Sayang talaga ang lahi namin kung hindi niya ikakalat ang kaniya. Kawawa ang next generation dahil hindi na sila makahahanap pa ng kasing gwapo namin ni Jac.
He rolled his eyes, “Saan ka pupunta? Hindi ka ba sasama sa meeting mamaya?”
“I have a meeting with Mr. Rodriguez. Kaya niyo na 'yan kahit wala ako. Big four ba naman ang kasama mo eh,” I assured him and he sigh.
“Okay ka lang ba?” I hold his shoulder. He look at me like he is pleading. Like he is tempted to say something which is he can't.
“Matt, will you be happy if I got a woman pregnant?” seryosong tanong nito na nagpabitaw sa akin mula sa pagkakahawak ko sa balikat niya.
What are you thinking, Jacob? What is on your mind? Did you?
“I mean, oh! Someone's calling me, I gotta go. Bye, Matt!” Agad niyang kinuha ang telepono niya at nagmadaling umalis. Halata namang walang tumatawag.
Soon, my cousin. Soon, you'll be needing my help.
I hop in the elevator and when it went down to 20th floor, that bastard came in. Ngumisi na naman ito nang para bang aliw na aliw. Subukan lang talaga niyang sirain kami, buhay niya ang sisirain ko.
