Catching Mr. Wilson Chapter 31
Pagkagising niya kinaumagahan ay wala na sa higaan si Matt. They still spent the night on the same bed with the twins between them. Bumangon na rin siya. She fixed the blanket to cover the two kids. Inaayos niya na ang mga gamit nila in a luggage. “Mommy, are we going home?” Inaantok ang boses na tanong ni Chico. “Yes. Mommy is okay now so we can go home.” Saglit niyang nilingon si Chico and he had his thinking look on. “Ayaw mo ba?” Kinusot niya ang buhok nito pagkatapos. Kinuha nito ang ilang mga shirts pa na nasa baba lang at inilapit sa kanya. “Will daddy come home with us?” Gabby put her hands over her heart and acted hurt, “You don't like mommy anymore?” balik-tanong niya kay Chico. It’s always her strategy to take their mind away from what they were asking, not answering their questions directly; but it was proving a little more difficult, especially with Chico. “I like Daddy.” “I’m not going anywhere,” Matt answered from the doorway. Napangiti naman agad si

THREE DAYS AWAY from his family felt like months. Even with the nightly calls, he missed them terribly. His plane just landed at Sangley airport and he got a call right away. “Have you just landed?” Nico did not bother with greetings anymore. “Yes.” “You need to be in Terminal 2. I have a team waiting outside but I don’t think you will make the flight. I’ve arranged a chopper to get you to the airport.” “Wait.” Matt calmed himself. Saglit na inilayo ang cellphone sa tenga at binuksan ang mga messages na noon pa lang pumapasok. He picked Gabby's message among several SMS messages na pumasok. Sorry hindi na kita nahintay. We will be back. “F*ck!” Matt cursed under his breath. “When is their flight?” tanong ni Matt to Nico sa kabilang linya. “12:40” Matt looked at his wristwatch and it was only an hour away. He definitely won't make it if he tried to travel via car. “The chopper will be there in 10 minutes. We are asking clearance to land at NAIA helipad”

Jessica was downstairs. It took some time after Gabby ended the call before that sunk in. Jessica was obviously not looking for Matt but wanted to see her. Gabby asked Cheryl to look after the twins but not after she was grilled kung saan siya pupunta. She changed into denim pants and a plain white cotton shirt and slipped on simple white Adidas sneakers. She made her way down. It was not difficult to spot Jessica though she was quietly waiting in the spacious lounge area. She was in a slick black jumpsuit with black pumps. “Hi,” bati niya dito nang makalapit na siya. Jessica also spotted her right away and stood up from her seat. “Hi, sorry that I went here na walang pasabi.” Gabby gave a small smile. “It’s okay.” She pointed to a small coffee shop on the ground floor of her condo building. It was always less busy, a little more on the high-end side as the building itself is in an upscale neighborhood. They order coffee first. Gabby asked for a Flat white

“CARE TO EXPLAIN WHY YOU WOULD RUN AWAY?” Tiningnan siya ni Matt before he took his first spoonful of soup. Gabby wished that the twins did not leave. Pinakain muna nila ang dalawa before they asked for their meal to be served. Humiling ang kambal na ikutin ang eroplano. A flight crew happily volunteered to accompany them. “Nag-Nag paalam naman ako.” Mabilis na sumubo na siya and concentrated on her plate. “That hardly counts as a notification” tukoy nito sa duwag niyang text message. “nor is that an explanation.” Ano pa ba ang sasabihin niya? Alam niyang tinitingnan pa rin siya nito so she concentrated on cutting a piece of Wolfgang’s steak that Matt ordered for her. Gabby had a hard time chewing and swallowing her food. She could only taste bitterness in her mouth. She washed it down with water and did not bother to taste the red wine. “I am sorry.” She almost choked on her words. Hindi niya alam kung narinig nito ang sinagot niya but she pushed the tray away to

HE CARRIED HER OFF THE BED at inilang hakbang lang nito ang daybed na nasa isang sulok ng kwarto. He laid her on it before he reached out for throw blanket on one of the chairs. Mabilis itong nahiga sa tabi niya, fixed the one pillow on it that Chico left on the daybed earlier and he threw the blanket over them. She scooted to the end of the narrow daybed, trying to put some space between them at patagilid na nahiga. “You’re going to fall over,” bulong nito. Nilingkis nito ang kamay sa bewang niya and pulled her closer. Her back feels good against his chest. He was hard but warm. Nanatili lang silang nakahiga. Pero alam niyang gising pa ito sa pagtaas-baba ng dibdib nito. “Why did you run away?” binasag nito ang katahimikan. Mahina lang ang boses nito at nagtanong nang halos pabulong. “Don't just tell me you are sorry,” pahabol na sambit nito. She took her time thinking of what to tell him. Inabot naman ni Matt ang isang kamay ni Gabby, he traced her fingers first

“LET ME CARRY YOU, BABY,” Matt gently coaxed Mango na buhat-buhat na ni Gabby. “No!” Matigas na tanggi nito. Pinulupot pa nito lalo ang maliliit na bisig sa leeg ni Gabby. Pilit itong ginising ni Gabby to prepare for their flight and the girl was now in a bad mood. “You’re so big now for mommy to carry you, Mango.” Chico said at tiningnan nang masama ang kapatid. Mango stuck her tongue out to Chico at mahigpit na yumakap sa ina. “Brat.” Chico murmured. Akmang iiyak uli ito kaya inunahan na ni Gabby. “Don’t cry. It will mean that you are intentionally being difficult right now. Mommy understands you are still sleepy and I can still carry you.” Marahang niyang hinaplos ang buhok nito. Nakatulog nga ulit si Mango before they were even picked up from the hotel. “Let me.” Maingat na inilipat niya si Mango to Matt’s arms. Inayos niya din ang nagusot na blouse ng anak and covered her back with the light wool coat na ayaw nitong isuot. The weather in Dubai at night was a

“MOMMY, IS LOLA EXPECTING US?” tanong ni Mango. “Yes, anak.” Gabby was fixing Mango’s hair. Maingat na tinitirintas ang buhok nito. She placed ribbons as she braided her hair. The corner of Mango’s lips slightly up in a contained smile habang pinapanood nito ang ginagawa niya sa salamin. “Are we staying with lola?” Tanong ulit ni Mango. “No, baby, we will just visit.” Sandaling sinulyapan niya rin ito sa salamin. “Mommy, are we going to see Simba?” patuloy ang makulit na pagtatanong ni Mango, she even started kicking her feet in the air, palatandaang excited ito. Mango watched Lion King over and over on the tablet since they arrived in the hotel the day before. “We will ask Daddy, okay? He may need to be back for work.” “But daddy said we can.” Hard-headed. Matt’s voice echoed in Gabby’s head. She needs to tell Matt to be firmer with Mango. “I’m going to ask Daddy, Mommy.” Mango looked so pitiful with her expression. But Gabby was aware na inuuto lang siya ng anak. She was a

Matt was a benefactor of the center. Kaya kakaibang welcome ang natanggao nila. May mga inihanda pa ang mga kababaihan at mga bata na mga palabas para sa kanila. There was no time to be alone which was a relief for her. Matt had a formal meeting with the sisters.

Catching Mr. Wilson Chapter 43
Kababalik lang nila galing sa maagang game drive. Yun ang tawag sa mga drives to the safari looking for animals in their natural environment. The reason why people flock to the Africa. There are game drives in the morning, at mayroon din sa hapon. The best times are during the dawn hours and at dusk when the animals are busiest. The weather is cool, the game are either hunting or drinking. And the likelihood of spotting them are high. The drive normally takes about 3 hours but they were already back after just two. “You are back early, madam,” bati sa kanya ng butler na naka toka sa safari villa nila. He was very lean and very tall, characteristic of the Maasai tribe of Kenya. His skin was very dark against the crisp white of the short sleeved polo he was wearing. Gabby has seen Chege in his Maasai traditional clothes before, a red cloth over his shoulder and across his chest and wore numerous beaded necklaces and bracelets and he looked fierce in it, but he always had a smile and h

Sinalat ni Matt ang noo ni Gabby. She woke up from the movement. “Hey, morning,” a smiling Matt greeted her, his voice low. He moved his hand and felt her neck with the back of his hand. “You are all good, no fever,” he added before dropping a kiss on her lips. Gabby’s cheeks flushed with the recollection of how she came down with a fever after their first time together. She was still wearing Matt’s shirt. She already had pajamas on. She realized, binihisan siya nito and carried her to bed last night. She glanced at the twins na tulog na tulog pa din. “Sorry that woke you up. You can get back to sleep. We still have a couple of hours.” ani Matt, not leaving and still sitting on her side of the bed.Pero bumangon na rin si Gabby, she stopped herself from winching, her legs were aching, and every part of her body. “I need to pack,” sambit niya but she remained seated on the bed. Pinapakiramdaman if strength is back to her legs. “Done.” Kiniling ni Matt ang ulo pointing to the lugga

Parang mas maliwanag ang mundo pagkagising ni Gabby kinabukasan. The sea was bluer than usual and the sky was clearer. The trees that lined the street below even looked greener. Napailing siya sa naisip pero hindi niya napigilang ngumiti. “Mommy, let’s go,” malakas na tawag ni Mango from the living room. Agad na pinulot niya ang hair dryer at sinimulang tuyuin ang buhok. “Yes, baby. Five minutes,” sagot niya dito. She just half dried her hair at nilagyan ng kaunting leave-on hair conditioner. Her hair was not cooperating and was giving her riot curls. She wanted to look for a hair tie pero malamang at naubos niya na sa pag-aayos sa buhok ng anak na babae. Mabilis na dinampian ng lip tint ang labi. She checked herself in the mirror. Matt said lalabas lang sila para mamili ng ilang gamit for their safari vacation. She wore a black track pants, a white shirt and threw on a black, zipped Philipp Plein track top. The twins picked it for her. It had cartoon monsters printed on it.

“DO YOU BELIEVE HIM?” Tanong ni Nico kay Matt. Kaaalis lang ni Lio and they were left in the cigar room. Matt was still frowning, still thinking of everything he had heard. “There is something off.“ Pauna niya. He slowly poured another shot of whisky into his glass. “Like it was a partial truth?” ani ni Nico. He also had an unlighted cigar in his hand. He brought it closer to his nose to smell the premium tobacco but his eyes never left Matt. “Yes.” Nico took an envelope from inside his jacket and slid it to Matt. “Personally picked up and delivered.” “Thanks, bro.” Matt grabbed the mid-size brown envelope. He looked at the address first. It was very indistinct but it carried the name of the laboratory from the US. He opened it and quickly ran his eyes on the few pieces of paper inside. He neatly folded it and placed it back on the envelope, tsaka isinuksok sa inner pocket ng sariling jacket. “So?” Nico widely smiled. He has been with Matt since they were starting out

Lio flipped a coin between his fingers. His eyes tracked Matt until Matt occupied a solo seat in the living room. He continued to look around, he stopped flipping the coin when his eyes met Nico’s sharp gaze. “So, G is not invited to the conversation?” Lio asked and sat back comfortably. He was wearing a tan button-down shirt, sunglasses in his shirt pocket, and dark brown pants. “You might want to start talking before you overstay your welcome,” Nico interjected. He comfortably leaned on the counter of the small kitchen of the suite. “I want to talk to G first.” was Lio’s response. Sandaling nagtinginan muna si Nico at Matt before Matt turned to look away and stared at the view outside with his jaw clenched. Nico moved and walked to the bedroom, paglabas nito ay nakasunod na si Gabby. Saglit namang sinulyapan ni Gabby si Matt but he was looking away from her. A sharp pain pierced her heart. Sa maikling panahong nakilala niya ito, he always had his eyes on her, as if he k
