Chapter 78: Not Too Far
Samantha looked at herself in front of the mirror. She was wearing a beautiful one-of-a-kind day dress she had bought in Mateusche, one of her favorite dress shops in LA. She paired that with her classic Manolo Blahnik nude pumps. Her make-up was light and natural and her long straight hair was cascading on her back like a black waterfalls.
She looks… fine. And yet she can’t help herself to feel anxious about today.
“Mommy, you look so pretty!” ani Charlie na nasa harapan niya at pinagmamasdan siya. Her daughter’s eyes were shining in admiration and she can’t help but smile.
Yumukuo siya at marahang pinisil ang maumbok nitong mga pisngi. “Thank you, sweetheart. You are pretty as well,” sabi niya, ginawaran pa ng magaang halik ang ulo nito. Muli siyang tumuwid ng tayo at humarap sa salamin.
“Mommy, can I come with you?” tanong ni Charlie habang kinakabit niya ang kanyang pearl earri

That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 79: Not Too Far 2
Napalunok si Samantha sa lakas ng pagkabog ng dibdib niya. Her mind was in a panic and she can feel her knees shaking.Bakit ba sa tuwing lumalayo siya kay Aaron, lagi na lang gumagawa ng paraan ang tadhana para muli silang pagtagpuin. Ano ba ito, nananadya?Aaron extended his hand for a handshake. Alanganin niyang tinanggap iyon. His grip was strong and firm and his eyes were still fixed on her.Agad siyang napakapit sa braso ni Lucas nang bitiwan ni Aaron ang kamay niya. Nang magsalita ang MC, iginiya siya ni Lucas sa uupuan nila. At sa malas niya, her seat was in between Lucas and Aaron.She was on edge the whole of the short program. Moreso when Aaron seemed to be so relaxed and casual while she’s panicking and losing her composure by the minute she stays there. Napakaraming tumatakbo sa isip niya. Mga tanong. Mga alalahanin. At lalong lalo na ang alaala ng pinagsaluhan nilang halik ilang araw na ang nakararaan.And he

Samantha didn’t know what to think or how to act. There were many emotions coursing through her. And her mind is muddled with so many questions. Iisa lang ang alam niyang gawin, ang umalis doon, sa harap ni Aaron bitbit ang anak niya. But her damn legs won’t work! She wanted to kick herself in utter frustration! Maya-maya pa, naglakad si Aaron palapit sa kanilang mag-ina. Her hand violently hammered inside her chest. Hindi niya alam kung anong gagawin nito sa paglapit nito. Napatingin siya kay Charlie na ngiting-ngiti. She’s praying hard to the heavens na sana hindi makita ni Aaron ang pagkakahawig nito sa anak niya or she’ll be doomed! Nang tuluyang makalapit si Aaron sa harap nilang mag-ina, mabilis itong sumulyap sa kanya bago lumuhod sa harap ng anak niya. “Hi, Charlie. My name is Aaron. I’m a friend of you Uncle Lucas,” pagpapakilala ni Aaron sa sarili nito. Charlie beamed at him, like her daughter had known him for a

Matapos ang hapunan, inaya ng Daddy niya si Aaron sa lanai para mag-kape. After dinner, she planned on taking Charlie to the entertainmet room para doon na ito magpa-antok. Pero may sariling palang plano ang anak niya. Sumali ito sa lolo nito at kay Aaron sa pakikipagkuwentuhan kaya wala siyang choice at pumunta rin doon.And now, there all seated on the coffee table while Charlie serves them with her invisible English tea.“Mr. Aaron, here is your tea. It doesn't have any magic but it’s hot,” sabi nito bago inabot kay Aaron ang laruan nitong teacup and saucer.“Thank you, teamaster, Charlie,” sabi ni Aaron bago kinindatan si Charlie. The gesture earned a giggle from her daughter. Hindi niya tuloy napigilan ang mapangiti.Maya-maya pa, magkasasabay na silang inabutan ni Charlie ng Daddy niya ng teacup sets, repearting what she said to Aaron. After that,they all indulged her kid to the play and took a sip o

Tensiyonado si Samantha habang nasa entertainment room sila. Aaron was still holding Charlie in his arms, her daughter not wanting to let go no matter how hard she tries. Kaya wala siyang choice kundi hintayin na makatulog nang tuluyan si Charlie. And with her daughter’s favorite movie playing, she’s sure kaunting oras lang ang ipaghihintay niya at makakatulog na ang anak niya.“When did she hurt her arm?” pabulong na tanong ni Aaron sa kanya maya-maya.She turned to him and willed her heart to not go into overdrive. Magkatabi lang kasi ang inuupuan nilang lazy boy and napakalapit nito sa kanya. His natural manly scent and presence enveloping her again, pushing her to the edge.“N-noong dinala mo ‘ko sa Tagaytay,” sagot niya, alanganin.Hindi ito sumagot. Ibinalik lang nito ang tingin sa malaking projector screen na nasa harap nila bago marahang hinagod ang likod ni Charlie. The caress he did to Charlie was

“That’s it! You can now play with both of your hands, Charlie,” masayang balita ni Dr. Tejada, and pedia-ortho ng anak ni Samantha.Lumuwas sila ng Maynila ni Charlie dahil kailangan nang alisin ang cast sa braso nito. They would have been earlier there kung hindi lang sila na-traffic na mag-ina. Ang gusto ng Daddy niya, mag-chopper na lang sila papunta ng Maynila at pabalik sa San Gabriel. Subalit tumanggi siya. Kaya naman niyang mag-drive. Besides, she wanted to talk to Mandy personally today for updates on their projects. She and her daughter would need to sleep in their house in Quezon City today for a day or two.Charlie buried her weight on her as the doctor tried to stretch her daughter’s injured arm. “No!It will hurt,” natatakot na sabi nito, lumabi.“Trust me, sweetpea, it won’t,” paniniguro ng doktor bago muli ay marahang inunat ang braso ng anak niya. Makailang beses iyong ginaw

Hapon na subalit hindi pa rin umuuwi si Aaron. Abala pa rin ito sa pakikipaglaro kay Charlie. At kanina kahit na nap time na ng anak niya, gising na gising pa rin ito at ayaw nitong matulog. Magagalit sana siya kaya lang she had never seen her daughter so happy while she’s playing with Aaron. At si Aaron naman ganoon din. Tila walang kapaguran sa pakikipaglaro sa anak niya at sa pagsagot sa hindi maubos-ubos na mga tanong nito.Funny how could Aaron and Charlie bond like that even without knowing their real connection with each other.Nang humapon, nag-aya si Charlie na maligo ulit sa pool. Inutusan niya ang isa sa mga katulong nila na samahan ang anak niya sa pagligo.“She’s a ball of sunshine,” ani Aaron maya-maya, ang mga mata nasa pool—na’kay CharlieThey were having a late afternoon snack beside the pool under the patio umbrella. Iyon ang unang pagkakataon na nagkasarilinan sila ni A
That First Night With Mr. CEO Chapter 85: Another Night
Tahimik si Samantha habang pinagmamasdan niya si Charlie na natutulog sa kama nilang mag-ina. It was a long day and she’s supposed to be tired.But tired isn’t exactly what she feels right now. She’s worried and afraid not just for herself but for her daughter—for her family.Kanina, habang tulala siya, Aaron quickly went on top of everything. Ito ang nagtawag sa mga kakilala nitong puwedeng tumulong sa sitwasyon niya. She would’ve done that herself if she wasn’t too shock to even move. Within an hour, their house was filled with authorities talking to her and taking her statements. Si Maj. Javellana mismo ang kumuha ng statement niya. At kahit na iniinterview na siya nito, kalat-kalat pa rin ang lohika niya.Kung hindi pa siguro umiyak si Charlie, she wouldn’t have snapped out of her shocked state.Nakiusap siya kay Aaron na ito na muna ang bahala sa mga pulis na nasa bahay nila because

Samantha was delirious. She was torn between reality and dreams as Aaron continued to kiss her with so much urgency and need. A part of her mind was telling her to muster all her strength and move away from him, but she can’t. She won’t.His kisses were drugging her, melting her resolve to let him go and do the right thing.She wanted him. Every fiber of her being wanted him. Wanted him so much that it hurts to know he belongs to somebody else.Maya-maya pa, bahagya siyang binitiwan ni Aaron. Confused, she gazed up at him and met his dark eyes as she lean her back on the door to support her weight. They were both breathless at halos sabay sila sa paghahabol ng hininga. Afterwards, his jaw clenched, as if trying to restrain himself from the many emotions coursing through him and were evident in his eyes. He lifted one of his hand and ever so gently brushed his thumb on her lips like she’s a wonder.“I want you, Sam. So
