MATT
BRIGHTON
I left her in Manila kasi mayroon pa silang session sa Kongreso. She will be home by Saturday. Three days from now. Uuwi na lang daw siya with her guards, huwag ko na lang daw siyang sunduin. Madami ding trabaho sa probinsiya. Pag uwi ko direcho ako sa bahay. Natural nandun ang tatay ko. He wanted to talk to me immediately.
"What the hell did you do"
"I just married the woman of my life, Dad."
"And in a cowardly manner. Bakit hindi kayo ikinsal sa tamang paraan"
"Tamang paraan din naman yung ginawa namin ah. Mabilis nga lang."
"Why the hell did you do that"
"Because we both know that if we didn't do it, you and her dad would do something to separate us. And I will never allow that to happen."
"You son of a..."
"Dad, I am here to get my stuff. I am moving out because my wife and I agreed that we have to prove that we can do this without your help."
"You..."
"I love you Dad but I am starting a family now."
"Matt..."
"Mom"
"Tell Tina, I will come and visit you when she comes back. And I am welcoming her to our family."
"Thank you Mommy."
And after my mom hugged me, I left the house of my father where I grew up and trained to become a politician. Damn, you have to prove to them that this is worth it dumdum. Ano ba kasi ang plano namin niTina? Bakit ko ba kasi siya inalok ng kasal. At bakit naman siya pumayag. Okay valid reason naman ang rason niya na ayaw niya yung ipapakasal sa kanya. Eh ako ano naman ang rason ko?
"Hello, Dax naayos na ba yung mga gamit ko sa apartment"
"Sir, nilagay na namin sa mga luggages at wardrobe containers. Yung mga ginagamit niyo na lang ang nakalabas sir."
"Sige okay. Salamat Dax. Yung bahay na irerent namin, bago ba yun May tumira na ba dun nun"
"Wala sir. Bago at isang buwan pa lang ang bahay. At ayaw naman nilang ibenta sir."
"So, magkano ang rent?"
"Thirty Thousand a month sir plus ."
"Mahal ah. hahaha sige, sige. Ilang rooms pala?"
"Four rooms sir. Isang master bedroom, isang guest room sa baba. Isang wardrobe room at isang office, sir. Pwede po kayong mag share ni Congresswoman. Sa labas ng bahay, may servants' quarters Sir. 500 square meters yung bahay sir, at 750 square meters ang buong lot. "
"Sige. Kailan pwede lumipat?"
"Saturday daw sir, okay na."
"Bukas "
"Yes sir."
"Bukas ang uwi ni Tina eh. Sabi niya ako na daw ang bahala sa nahay na irerent. Sige maglipat na kayo ng maaga. Bayaran mo na din yung deposit at advance."
"Okay sir."
"Tapos ako na susundo kay Tina sa airport."
"Okay sir."
"Dax, mag grocery na din kayo. May appliances ba sa bahay na yun"
"Sir, meron po. Mga bago din. Yung may ari, mga followers po ng papa niyo kaya gustong gusto nilang ikaw ang tumira. Nung sinabi naming kasama niyo asawa niyo, natuwa sila kasi maganda daw si congresswoman. Kakausapin namin sila mamaya sir kung pwede na kaming maglipat dung ng mga gamit at yung grocery sir."
"Okay Dax, salamat. May meeting kasi ako ngayon. Pakisabi kay Jong, siya na lang ang susundo sa akin mamaya. Magsama na lang siya dun sa ibang tao dun. "
"okay sir."
"May pera ka ba para sa grocery"
"MEron sir."
"Damihan mo na lang. Alam mo naman ang kailangab sa bahay eh. KAsama ni Tina na uuwi si Yaya. at yung ibang bodyguards pala. Di ko naisip yun ah. Samahan mo pala ako na magsundo bukas. Dalhin mo yung malaking sasakyan. Dun mo din pasakayin si Yaya. Si Tina lang ang sasakay sa akin."
"Okay sir."
TINA
Tumawag sa akin si Matt kahapon. Sabi niya susunduin daw niya ako sa airport and may nakita na daw siyan bahay for rent. Dun na daw kami tutuloy. At hindi rin maiiwasan na madaming tao ang pupunta sa bahay namin. At yung ibang bodyguards and Yaya niya kasama sa bahay mga yun. So pano ang arrangements namin? Sabi niya, pag uusapan na lang daw namin pag uwi ko. Damn, Tina ano ang napasukan mong sitwasyon.
I do not know Matt personally aside from the things that I know and saw when we went out on our dates. He likes brocolli. He loves Japanese food. He eats gummy bears after eating. He does not drink soda, hindi rin siya umiinum. He likes adobo with quail eggs. He frowns everythime he looks at his food. He frowns when he is stuck in traffic. He is very patient with waiting. He smells good. He sprays perfume when he gets off the car when he knows that there will be people who would hug or shake his hands. But I noticed he did not use perfume when/ i/t was just me he was seeing. And he likes to bite his inner lip when he is in deep thought,
Tina napansin mo lahat mga yun?> Baliw ka ba? bakit mo napansin mga yun?
Baliw ka talaga.
" Congresswoman, boarding na po tayo."
"Ah okay sige. Si Yaya paki assist na lang siya huh?"
"Yes Ma'am."
