Kung paano siya nakumbinse ni Aaron na pumayag sa pa-dinner nito, hindi pa rin alam ni Samantha. Maybe it was because she’s hungry too or it was a little persuasion from Chef Everett, or maybe she’s just too crazy she’s not thinking anymore. Whatever the reason, isa lang ang alam niya, she did not willingly agreed to the dinner.

Pero ano pa bang magagawa niya, nandoon na siya. Nakaupo sa VIP room, in a candle lit table, eating the dinner prepared for Aaron and Kristine.

“Why aren’t you eating?” tanong ni Aaron sa kanya maya-maya. “Should I ask for some chips instead?” sabi ni Aaron sa kanya maya-maya. The remark made her recall the big bag of Doritos they had shared during their date.

Kumurap siya, tumuwid ang likod bago mabilis na kinuha ang wine glass niya at inubos ang laman niyon. Sa totoo lang, natetensiyon siya. Bakit hindi? Kaharap niya si Aaron at kumakain sila ng dinner na sila lang

  • That First Night With Mr. CEO    Chapter 68: Dinner 2

    Hindi alam ni Samantha kung gaano sila katagal sa ganoong ayos ni Aaron. Basta ang alam lang niya, nanginginig pa rin siya sa sobrang kabiglaanan. At sa tingin niya, hindi niya kayang tumayo nang mag-isa.She buried herself deeper into Aaron’s embrace and closed her eyes. Hindi muna niya naiisip ang sasabihin ni Aaron o ng iba pa mang tao. She needed someone now, anyone!She almost got hit! If worse comes to worst, she could’ve been dead by now!Oh god!Lalo siyang nanginig sa naisip. Nagsunod-sunod din ang mga eksena sa isip niya kung sakaling natuluyan nga siyang napahamak kanina.Paano na ang Daddy niya kung sakaling nadisgrasya nga siya kanina? Tiyak niyang bibigay lalo ang puso nitong pinaka-iingatan nila ni Lucas. At si Lucas, she’s more than sure her brother would also be devastated and would seek justice for her. Isa na naman sa mga dagdag alalahanin nito. And Charlie—her sweet little baby. Paa

    Aaron huffed and cursed under breath. Humigpit din ang hawak niya sa manibela habang panay-panay ang pagsulyap niya sa cellphone niya. He was waiting for Ana to call him. Ito ang tinawagan niya kanina upang hingan ng tulong. Pinatawagan niya rin kasi rito si Eric Samaniego—ang may-ari ng SSA upang tulungan sila sa imbestigasyon ng insidente. Ang unang usapan nila ng hipag niya, magkikita sila sa Le Petit Chateau. Ang kaso, stubborn as she was, Sam argued with him and went home! Kaya ngayon heto siya, sinusundan ang kotse ng dalaga kung saan man nito balak pumunta.Naihilamos na niya ang kanyang kamay sa kanyang mukha bago siya muling nagbuga ng hininga. He had never felt so happy and yet so pissed at the same time.Happy because finally, he had Sam in his arms. Ever since they’ve met, he had always imagined how she’d feel in his arms. The urge to just grab and hold her was too great sometimes it frightened him. And now that he had

    Tahimik na pinagmamasdan ni Samantha si Charlie. She just came home a few minutes ago. Ang una niyang ginawa nang makarating siya ng bahay, mag-shower. She wanted to erase the memory of the things that happened tonight. Gusto niyang pakalamahin ang sarili niya. Gusto niya, pagharap niya kay Charlie, maayos siya. Not nervous wreck that she was an hour ago.Kaya lang nang puntahan niya sina Bettina at Charlie sa viewing room, her daughter was already sleeping. Ang sabi ni Bettina, katutulog lang nito at kanina pa siya hinihintay.Siguro kung napaaga siya nang kaunti, naabutan pa niya itong gising. Nakipaglaro pa siya rito. Nakipagkulitan. She would’ve felt comforted by her child’s giggles and laughters. It would’ve been easy for her to forget about the cares of the day—the bigbike that almost hit her, Aaron and their argument.Kaya lang, tulog na ang anak niya. Hindi na naman niya ito naabutang gising. And during times like that, she can&rs

    “H-hello?” nakangiwing sagot ni Samantha sa tawag sa cellphone niya. Mrs. Cobarrubias was calling her.“Samantha, hija, totoo bang hindi mo na gagawin ‘yong event nina Aaron at Kristine?” tanong nito in her usual sweet voice.She inwardly groaned and released a slow breath-trying to calm herself down. Sinasabi na nga ba at iyon ang dahil kung bakit napatawag ang matandang babae sa kanya. Well she expected that. Earlier that morning, sinabihan na niya si Kristine na si Mandy na ang magiging head coordinator sa engagement party nito at ni Aaron. Idinahilan niya na kailangan niyang lumipad patungong California sa susunod na linggo dahil sa isang emergency at hindi na niya mutututukan pa nang maigi ang preparation at coordination para sa engagement party.At first Kristine bargained with her, ayaw nitong bitiwan niya ang event ng mga ito. But when she assured her that she will make sure that everything is alrea

    Salubong ang mga kilay nang dumating sa opisina niya si Aaron. Dalawang araw na siyang halos walang tulog dahil sa pakikipagnegosasyon niya sa mga empleyado ng VSL. They said they cannot continue working in his newly bought company when all of them are underpaid. He talked to the employee’s association leader, they were demanding more than they should. And giving in to their request would meant loses on his part. And though businesses entails taking risks, what the VSL employees are demanding him would sure take a big chunk on the budget he had planned on spending at VSL.Eddie had advised him to just lay off VSL’s employees and hire new ones. Business wise, that’s the best thing to do. But he just can’t bring himself to do that. What he did four years ago at SSL still haunts him until today. At hindi na niya dadagdagan pa ang mga dalahin ng kunsensiya niya para lamang mawala ang problema niya. He’d meet the employee’s demands

    “You’re silent, Aaron. Are you angry with what I did?” tanong ng Mommy ni Aaron sa kanya maya-maya.Marahan siyang nagbuga ng hininga bago ibinaba ang tasa niya sa coffee table. Honestly, he’s not sure what to say or what to do. His mother did again what she does best—play cupid. And sometimes, her mother’s antics irks him hindi lang niya talaga masabi nang harapan dahil ayaw niya itong masaktan. He’s a 32 year-old engaged man for Pete’s sakes! Bakit hindi na lang siya nito hayaan sa mga diskarte niya sa pakikipagrelasyon.She knew you too well, you half-hearted dimwit! komento ng isang bahagi ng isip niya.He scoffed internally. Mukhang pati lohika niya, hindi rin kampi sa kanya.But what can he do? He had given his words. And he’ll do what he had promised no matter what the damn price is. Everybody expects him to do that. He ain’t a CEO for nothing. He’s

    Samantha lazily stood from her office chair and went to the private meeting room. May naghihintay sa kanyang kliyente doon ngayon. One of the last few clients she’d have to meet personally before she goes into hiding.Hiding. Yes, going into hiding. After she successfully pulled off that lie that she’s going out of the country, of course she needs to make it looked like that she did. Kaya matapos ang linggong ito, magtatago na siya sa San Gabriel.Bettina and Mandy made sure that they will cover for her while she’s hiding. Sila lang tatlo ng mga kaibigan niya ang nakakaalam kung saan siya pupunta. Not even her father nor Lucas know that she’s going home in San Gabriel to hide for at least two weeks or until Aaron and Kristine’s event is over. Mandy said that there would be some major changes in the event.Imbes na initial 250 guests, they'll cut it down to just a 130 due to security reasons. Kung ano ang ibig sab

    Hindi mapakali si Samantha habang nakikipag-usap silang dalawa ni Mandy kay Madam Liza. Paano, panay ang sulyap sa kanya ni Aaron, na para bang siya ang may kagagawan ng lahat ng kasalanan sa mundo. Hindi naman ganoon kalaki ang kasalanan niya. She just denied that she knows him. What's the big deal? Yes, it's a big deal. You lied. Three damn times! panenermon ng isang parte ng isip niya sa kanya. She swallowed hard, her conscience slowly getting under her skin. Bakit ba kung itinanggi niyang kakilala niya ito, na dati niya itong boss? Kapag ba inamin niya rito na oo, kilala niya ito at dati siya nitong empleyada, will it change a thing? Will it change everything she had gone through? Will it heal her broken heart? Will it undo her past? Their past? She cursed herself silently and secretly shook her head. She should not be thinking about those things anymore. She had promised herself that she’ll never think of anything about Aar

    Dahil na rin sa pagod sakakaiisip at kakaiyak, tuluyang nakatuog si Charlie. Nang magising siya, madaling-araw na. She can’t believe she slept that long and missed dinner!Dinner. Shes' not supposed to miss any meals!She secretly groaned, realizing what she did.That has sent her to the edge of panic and relief all at the same time. Sandali siyang nakiramdam. Gael wasn’t cuddling her like he used to. She turned to her side carefully and she saw her husband sleeping on his side too facing away from her. Napalabi siya. Mukhang nagtampo na talaga sa kanya ang asawa.Hindi bale, today is officially their anniversary. She can tell him her secret now.Mabilis niya itong niyugyog. “Gael, wake up,” she whispered.He groaned, shifted slowly and lied on his back. Singkit ang mga matang tumingin ito sa kanya. “W-What? What is it?”Umusog siya kaunti palayo rito. “You have to get up. I’ll tell you something.”He huffed and clicked his tongue. Subalit bumangon din. Sandali itong bumaling sa orasa

    “Again? Pero puno pa ang fridge niyan, love. Nakita ko kagabi nang bumaba ako sa kitchen,” reklamo ni Gael kay Charlie nang muli siyang maglagay ng dragon fruit sa cart. They were out grocery shopping in a local grocery store in Cancun. They have been staying there for a week now in celebration of their second wedding anniversary. It was a trip she didn’t really want to take at first because she easily gets tired lately. But when Gael told her that she will call the shots every time, she was in in no time.She rolled her eyes and faced him. “Can’t you get it? I’m not buying them for me to eat. I’m buying it because they looked cute,” pagrarason niya, muling naglagay ng dalawang piraso pa ng nasabing prutas sa cart.Gael huffed. “Should I buy you a dragon fruit farm?”“Of course not!” sabi niya, muling naglakad sa aisle ng prutas na kinaroroonan nila.“What about a grocery store then? You want me to purchase this grocery store for you?”Namawaywang na siya at hinarap ang asawa. “You

    “Are you ready?” tanong ng Mommy ni Charlie sa kanya.She filled her lungs with air and gave her mother a slow nod. “Yes,” she replied smiling.Gumanti ng ngiti ang Mommy niya, nangingilid ang luha. Masuyo pa nitong inabot anag kanyang pisngi. “I wish you all the happiness in the world, sweetheart.”“Thanks, Mom,” sabi niya bago niyakap ang ina.They stayed like that for a while bago sila nakarinig ng katok sa pinto. “Hey, the music’s starting and all the guests are waiting. Don’t tell me may balak ka pang itakbo ‘yang anak mo, Sam,” said her father’s familiar voice outside the door.Natatawa nilang binitiwan ng Mommy niya ang isa’t-isa. Sandaling nitong pinunasan ng panyo ang gilid ng mga mata nito bago siya muling nginitian. “Let’s go. Your Dad cannot wait to give you away… officially,” pabirong sabi ng Mommy niya bago inabot sa kanya ang kanyang bouquet.When her mother opened the door to her room, she was met by her father’s loving gaze. “Finally,” anito, nakangiti.

    “Ate, sa ‘yo na po ito,” anang sampung taong gulang na batang babae sa kanya. The girl was handing her a big white gumamela flower she probably picked near the gate of the orphanage. Napangiti siya, bahagyang yumuko bago tinanggap ang bulaklak na inaabot ng bata. “Talaga, akin na lang ‘to… ano nga ulit ang pangalan mo?” “Chamy po, ate.” “Salamat, Chamy.” The child gave her a soft smile in return. Akma na sana itong tatakbo pabalik sa mga kalaro nito sa ‘di kalayuan nang pigilan niya ito. “Ano nga palang gusto mong maging paglaki mo, Chamy?” The child beamed at her.“Gusto ko pong maging nurse, Ate!” Sandaling nangunot ang noo niya. “Bakit naman nurse, Chamy?” “Gusto ko po kasing alagaan si Lolo Gael d’yan sa kabilang building.” Lalong nagsalubong ang mga kilay niya. “Lolo Gael?” Mabillis na tumango si Chamy. “Gael lang po kasi ang alam niyang banggitin. Kaya Lolo Gael.” Tumuwid siya ng tayo, hinayon ng tingin ang building ng carehome sa mga matatanda na naroon din sa compoun

    It was a manic day for Charlie. No. It was chaos spelled in all caps.She’s running late from her appointment “Hey, slow down, beautiful. You’ll hurt yourself,” nakangiting sabi ni Gael sa kanya, sumandal pa sa hamba ng pinto ng walk-in closet niya.“Go away, Gael. You know I cannot be late today,” sabi niya habang naglalagay ng sunscreen sa mukha. Gael chuckled. “Bakit, hindi ka naman late a. You still have at least an hour and a half to spare.”She scoffed and picked up her blush powder. She won’t wear her full make-up today. “An hour and a half spare that I’ll spend for travel. You know how’s Manila traffic in the morning, Gael. It’s one of the worse and I can’t afford to be late today. Nakakahiya sa orphanage at carehome! At lalong nakakahiya kay Ate Sophie.”It’s true, kasama niya sa pagpunta sa bahay-ampunan at carehome ang kapatid ni Jasmine ngayon. Siguro, kung hindi lang kapapanganak ni Jasmine, baka kasama rin niya ito ngayon.Visiting orphanages was a thing she had been d

    Gael jumped out as soon as the car pulled over infront of the police station. Doon sila dumiretso nina Gray at Jacob mula sa simbahan. Aside from Lena, wala nang sino pa mang nasaktan sa masamang insidente na plinano ni Alaric. And it was more than a relief for him. Now he can focus on one thing, ang puntahan si Charlie sa mismong police station.Pahapyaw nang sinabi ni Jacob sa kanya kung ano ang nangyari, subalit hindi pa iyon buo. And not only does he need to talk to Charlie for the full details but he also needs to see his wife to calm the lingering worry in his chest. The picture of Lena dying in his arms was still vivid iin his memory. And he cannot stop thinking that, it could've Charlie dying in his arms and...He shook his head, willing the unwanted thoughst away. Charlie is fine, he convinced himself before picking up his pace.

    Sandaling namanhid si Gael sa kanyang nasaksihan. Panandalian niyang kinumbinsi ang sarili na imahinasyon niya lang ang lahat. Na nasa maayos na lagay si Charlie at walang kaguluhan na nangyayari sa mismong araw ng kanilang kasal. He even tried to blink a few times—willing the dreadful scenario away from his head. But when he opened his eyes, his bride, his wife still laid there on the cold ground, bleeding.With his chest constricting, he tried to stand up, wanting to go to Charlie as soon as he can. But his bodyguard nearby kept him from doing so. Anger burned his skin in an instant. He had to go Charlie and no one, not even the damn death god himself could prevent him from doing so.He turned himself onto the ground, lying on his back, and gave the bodyguard hovering over at him a straight jab to the jaw. Napaupo ito, bago siya mahilo-hilong binitiwan. He took that chance to crawl his way to Charlie, who fell near the entrance of the church. ‘I like the water, Kuya Gael. Can you t

    Hindi matapos-tapos ang pagsipat ni Charlie sa sarili niya sa lifesize mirror na nasa kanyang hotel suite. Hindi pa rin siya halos makapaniwala na naroon nga siya at ikakasal ulit kay Gael. This time in a church and in the presence of their family. Well, some of their family. But nevertheless their families are present and that’s the most important thing.She looked down at her ring finger. The emerald engagement ring and the ink she had five years ago are there, a testament of everything she had gone through loving Gael. But she’s glad she finally made it right there at that very moment, when she can declare to the whole world that Gael is hers as much as she is his. That in the world of broken promises and dreams, of heartaches and of tears, Gael is her always—the one she will keep on choosing to love as long as she breathes.Her phone rang, immediately stopping her train of thoughts. Agad na nagsalubong ang mga kilay niya nang mag-register sa screen ang pangalan ni Gael. She picked

    Kanina pa nasa harap ng salamin si Gael subalit panay pa rin ang pag-aayos niya sa kurbata ng kanyang suit. The damn thing just won’t align! Frustrated, he took it off altogether and huffed. He’s anxious for some unknown reason. Gray, who arrived last night, said at it must be the wedding jitters but he refuses to believe so. He’s just on edge because he didn’t get to see his wife and son for hours now. Sneaking in at Charlie and Levi’s hotel room crossed his mind a few times last night. With his skills as a former elite boduyguard, he could do that with no sweat involved. But his grandfather gave him a talk about keeping his word and just wait until it’s time for them to meet at the altar again. Subalit naging sobrang napakahirap niyon sa kanya dahil sa iisang hotel lang silang naka-check –in na mag-anak—just different floors. Idagdag pa na talagang makulit si Tala at panay-panay ang pagbabantay sa mag-ina niya, h’wag lang niyang makita ang mga ito. Gray told him to have a little
