Troy Adrian

Isang buwan na naman ang nakalipas. She's gone for almost a year and half. Maging si Nate ay padalang na ang pagtatanong tungkol sa kanya. Kilala niya parin naman ito, nilagay ko ang picture nila ng Ate niya sa bedside table niya sa kwarto, to remind him of her face.

" Good morning anak."  halos magkasabay na bati ni Mom at Dad, pagdating ko sa dinning table to have breakfast.

" Morning.."  nakangiti kong sagot. 

Very sweet na naman kasi ang mga magulang ko. Dad finally start his retirement pagbalik niya from Singapore at halos nakay Mommy nalang ang lahat ng atensiyon niya ngayon.

" Alexander tumigil ka na, nakakahiya sa mga binata mo." saway ni Mom kay Dad, nagtinginan kami ni Xhan.

" Honey naman, parang naglalambing lang." maktol ni Dad.

" Kapre' ano ba.."  galit galitan ni Mom..

" It's not to late to have a menopausal baby' Mom and Dad, I don't mind at all."  natatawang biro ni Xhandrei na siya namang ikinalaki ng mata ni Mommy.

" Kontento na ako sa mga pamangkin mo Xhan, don't encourage your Father, he would look it up later baka akala mo, kung pwede nga. " sinamaan ng tingin ni Mommy si Dad.

Itinaas naman ni Dad ang dalawang kamay, habang natatawa. " Not true.." 

Natatawang nagpaalam na ako sa kanila after I'm done with my coffee. Nagmadali ding sumunod sa akin si Xhan.

"  You need to let me have your Condo unit Kuya. Mababaliw ako kina Mom at Dad sa bahay. " ilang linggo na rin niyang hinihiling na ipahiram ko sa kanya ang condo ko para makalipat doon.

" Alam mong anytime pwede ko ibigay sayo ang passcode sa Condo' Xhan. Ang tanong, papayagan ka ba bumukod lalo na ni Mom? Isa pa, as if you could live on your own. " ginulo ko ang buhok niya.

Tumakbo ito palayo saka sumakay sa kotse. He's on his last year in college. Bunso siya kaya lumaki itong spoiled lalo na kay Mommy. He knows basic chores sa bahay pero I doubt kung kaya niya na nga ba mag-isa.

Patungo ako sa project namin sa
Toledo. Papunta narin daw si Enzo doon. Nag-uumpisa na kasi ang construction ng mga housing units na itatayo doon.

Kinawayan ako ni Enzo pagkababa ko ng sasakyan. Napaaga yata ito.

" Ba't ang aga mo naman yata Enzo?"  inabutan niya ako ng puting helmet.

" Ako ang naghatid kay Jacob at Nathan sa Kindergarten."  nakabalik na ang mga ito sa bahay nila and Nathan will stay with them, as per request ni Jacob. Isha couldn't say no, lalo na't gumaling na ang trangkaso ng panganay niya. They moved from Manila para mas malapit sila sa amin.

" Nakipagmeet na ba sayo ang Client natin? " curious kong tanong.

"  Hindi pa Ian. I've heard from the Secretary, they will set a meeting with us soon."  hindi rin kami nagtagal ni Enzo sa site pagkatapos namin kausapin ang Engineers we parted to go to our respective offices.

Pagdating sa Hotel ay ibinuhos ko ang oras ko sa paper works. Ang iba sa mga papeles na hawak ko ay galing sa RGC. Nahati sa aming magkapatid ang trabahong iniwan ni Dad, to which I'm grateful. Malaki ang naitutulong si Ate Chloe at Isabelle sa akin, now that I'm the CEO. I double check the financial statement this month at masaya ako dahil mataas na ulit ang pumapasok na income sa Company after the recess brought by the Pandemic.

Around lunch ay nagutom ako kaya labas ako ng office at naglakad papunta sa Resto, on my way I bumped into someone. Tumilapon ang hawak niyang paper bag.

Mabilis ko iyong pinulot.

" I'm so sorry, my mind is elsewhere."  apologetic kong sabi. " Are you alright?"  baka nasaktan ito.

" I'm fine, part of it was my fault too."  yong boses niya, sounded familiar napatingin ako sa mukha niya.

She's beautiful.

Parang na conscious ito. " Here.."  inabot ko sa kanya ang paper bag niya."  I'm very sorry again, Miss. "

"  It's fine, guest ka din ba dito? I'm Luna by the way." nakangiting tanong niya.

" Troy Adrian, I work here.." I extend my right hand.

Nakangiting tinanggap niya iyon.  " Hmmm, it's nice meeting you Troy, glad to be acquainted with someone who works here. " bigla ko siyang naalala when this lady called me Troy.

" Is everything alright? " takang tanong niya.

" Yes, I'm sorry. It's nice meeting you too' Luna. I hope you will enjoy your stay here in Adrian's Suites. " after that we parted ways.

She seems familiar but I couldn't remember where and when did we meet before.

After ko kumain, I received a call from Ate Chloe asking if pweding ako nalang ang sumundo sa pamangkin ko, which I gladly agreed.

I was right on time dahil palabas na si Maureen when I arrived at her school. Nakangiting kinawayan niya ako.

" Hi Mau.."  bati ko pagpasok niya sa sasakyan.

" Dad and Mom's busy again? I told them I could take a Uber or Taxi,  Tito Ian."  napatingin ako rear view mirror.

" You know that's not an option' Mau."  inikutan niya ako ng mata.

" I'm almost thirteen' Tito Ian, I can take care of myself."  maktol niya.

"  I know you can love. But still, safe is always better than sorry, right?"  she sighed. " Do you want to go somewhere? " nagmamaktol lang naman siya kapag may gustong gawin, she a good kid took after her Mom.

"  I want to buy this book sa Mall but Mom's been busy to take me." kaya naman pala.

"  Let's go buy it then. " kita kong nagliwanag ang mukha niya.

"  You're the best' Tito Ian."  pinakain ko nadin muna siya. Then, we both went to the bookstore.

Hinayaan ko siyang bilhin ang librong gusto niya.

I was just looking around when I bump into someone.

"  I'm sorry.."  halos magkasabay naming sabi.

" Hey.. " siya

"  Hi.. " this is the second time today with the same person. "Luna, I'm so sorry." 

" It's you again.."  what are the odds..

" Tito Ian.."  napunta kay Maui ang atensiyon ko.

" Mau, are you done?"  napatingin ito kay Luna.

" Hello po, I'm Zhoe Maureen but you can call me Maui, are you a friend of Tito Ian?"  pakilala nito sa sarili.

"  Maui, she's Luna, she's a guest in Adrian's Suites." agap ko.

" You have a very pretty name Maui just like you."  lalo namang napangiti ang pamangkin ko.

"  Did you know that Adrian's Suites is name after my Tito Ian? Just like Chloe's Haven who's name after my Mom and.. "

"  Okay Mau, baka naababala na natin si Miss Luna. " awat ko kay Maureen.

"  No, it's okay. I was just roaming around."  nakangiti namang sagot niya. She has a very pretty smile.

"  Do you want us to give you a ride back to the Hotel? " sabi ni Maui bago ko pa siya naawat.

"  Is that okay? " baling ni Luna sa akin.

" Yes, sure.., why not. Let's go.. " nauna na akong lumabas.

" Tito Ian, we need to pay first."  habol ng pamangkin ko sakin.

"  Right, we should Mau.. " amusement was written on her face habang nakatingin samin ni Maui.

Padating sa sasakyan ay maagap kong binuksan ang front seat. Maui on the other hand help herself on the back seat.

"  Thank you."  si Luna.

Ngumiti ako. " We'll drop Maui first. " sabi ko sa kanya pagpasok ko ng kotse.

" Okay.."  Nakangiting sagot niya.

" How was your stay at the Hotel, Miss Luna?"  basag ni Maui sa katahimikan sa loob ng kotse.

" I'm enjoying it, the peaceful ambiance all around the hotel offers pleasurable stay and pretty much every aspect of the hotel’s service is spot on."  RGC offers the best, bulong ng utak ko.

"  Tito Ian is doing a fine job then.."  may panunukso sa boses ni Maureen.

"  Off you go' kiddo. " nasa tapat na kasi kami ng bahay nila.

"  What a bummer, goodbye Miss Luna. Thanks Tito Ian. " pero lumapit ito at may binulong bago lumabas. " She's pretty, Tito Ian."

"  She's a smart kid." aniya

" She is, just like her Mom, my sister Chloe. " tumigil kami dahil nared ang stoplight.

" Ikaw? Got any niece or nephew? " tanong ko.

"  No, I'm an only child." matipid niyang sagot. " Must have been fun having them.."

" Not all the time specially the smaller ones." natatawang sagot ko.

Eventually nakarating na kami sa Hotel. Pinagbuksan ko siya ng pinto.

"  Thank you for the ride, Ian. " napatitig ako sa mukha niya agad naman itong nagiwas ng tingin.

"  Your welcome and enjoy the rest of your day' Luna. " she smiled, saka naglakad papasok sa lobby ng hotel.

Maui was right she's very pretty.
