The Broken Hearted Billionaire Chapter 7: The Child
FERNANDOCARMELITA GOT INTO THE RESTOBAR REALLY QUICKLY. I increased my steps to catch up with her. She had already started fixing up the restobar when I found her."Ma'am, let me do this." I grabbed the chair she was about to put down on one of the tables."I can do this," she insisted and did not let go of the chair."No, ma'am. Let me do this. Just rest. I'll clean up the place," I told her.Carmelita looked at me and raised an eyebrow again. Her eyes are really beautiful, especially when it’s bright outside. Her blue eyes shine like seawater."I said I can do this," she said. We stared at each other.Ah, this is what she wants."No, ma’am. I can do this." I pulled the chair from her. She lost her balance and crashed into me. Carmelita clings to my chest for support. Maybe because of instinct, I grabbed her arm to support her.Our eyes met. I can feel a tickle in my core because of that simple touch. I don't like how I feel. I admit that I am attracted to her physically, but that's

FERNANDOONE WEEK HAS PASSED since the kidnapping incident of Talitha. Everything is somewhat back to normal now compared to the past few days when people were too busy at the resort.We all kept a close eye on Talitha.I felt a little sorry for the child because she seemed to be traumatized for a while and was always quiet since her own father kidnapped ]her. I can only imagine the confusion she's having. But because she was still young, her old vigor was also restored. Thanks to her brothers and sisters at Mairaos Resort for making her happy again.The child and I became quite close. She is the one who approaches me first and tries to get close to me. Well, I can't blame her. I am really a likable person.Anyway, back to regular life on the island I guess. But Carmelita is still the same, grumpy and always frowning. That woman always seems to have her period. I do not know. But she is always angry with me. Maybe it's because I always make cute smiles at her. That's why she always sc

FERNANDOCARMELITA AND I WERE NOT SPEAKING DURING THE RIDE. I also drive quietly while glancing at her from the rear-view mirror. As usual, she was just sitting in the back of the car, folding her arms, and looking out the window.It won't be long before this girl will have a stiff neck.Anyway, I just decided to turn on the stereo so it wouldn't be too quiet. It's a bit awkward. I've been engaging her to talk to me for a while now, but she only answered a little and then her answers were just answers that I didn't know what to ask next. Although my questions are open-ended, she has this way of just killing the conversation. So I can say that Carmelita is also smart. It’s difficult to outsmart her.That's why I was challenged by Carmelita even more, she is also a very strong opponent. No wonder she is so good at deceiving. I need something to move things around. I will not allow people like her not to be taught a lesson."You keep staring at me. That’s rude, you know," she said to me.

FERNANDOWE ARRIVED AT THE BARANGAY HALL. Carmelita got down without saying a word after I parked the car properly. I don't know if I will follow her or just stay in the car. She didn't say anything.Anyway, I decided not to follow and just hang out in the car. I recline on the back of my chair. I leaned back and decided to close my eyes. I need energy later because I know the resto-bar will be busy again.The stereo was just on, and I was listening to a random song that the DJ was playing on the radio.♫Two old friends meet againWearin' older facesAnd talk about the places they've beenTwo old sweethearts who fell apartSomewhere long agoHow are they to knowSomeday they'd meet againAnd have a need for more than reminiscin'Maybe this timeIt'll be lovin' they'll findMaybe now they can be more than just friendsShe's back in his lifeAnd it feels so rightMaybe this time, love won't end ♫I was drifting to sleep and the music was perfect to put me to sleep, but I was surprised w

FERNANDO "ARE WE GOING BACK TO THE RESORT, MA’AM?" I asked the woman who was sitting in the back of the car again. She was sitting pretty there while looking out the window."No. Let's go to the town market first. I need to buy something there," Carmelita said without even looking at me.Gosh, she thought I would buy it. If I know, she just wants to be with me for a longer time. Damn, you are so conceited, Fernando. Of course!My alter ego is teasing me again.Anyway, I didn't react anymore and just followed her order. But I forgot to ask for directions."Ah, ma'am...""What again?""What’s the direction to the town market? Well, I haven't memorized the streets here yet," I said to her."There's a GPS, Ando. Have you forgotten? Can't you read?"Ouch. She is angry again. "Oh, yes, the GPS." I tried to smile. I'm so stupid for forgetting that there’s a GPS. Ugh!"Do you know how to navigate that?" asked the woman.I was about to answer when I was surprised when she suddenly moved forwa

FERNANDO WAITING FOR CARMELITA is one of the most dreadful things I have ever done in my entire life. It's puzzling and panicky at the same time. I hate feeling vulnerable. It reduces confidence and masculinity.I know you think I'm scared, but it's not like that. I'm just a little afraid of being abandoned. Besides, it's been quite a while since Carmelita went to get some help. I didn't realize the time, but in my estimation, she might have been missing for forty-five minutes.Did she get to the highway? Did she get lost? Those are some of the questions that come to my mind while thinking about Carmelita.It's impossible for a woman to go astray. If I am from here, I should know the ins and outs of the island. Plus, the road is not too far from here. I am sure that she should have arrived there in about twenty minutes.But maybe no one is passing by yet? Or did something bad happen to her? Argh! This is so hard! I can not do anything!The worst thing is that I can't stand properly e

FERNANDOA WEEK HAS PASSED since the accident happened. Everything is fine, and Carmelita and I are fine. She has been checking on me and has given me a week off to allow my leg wound to heal.I was only in the employee quarters, and food was always served by the twins. They were my personal support at that time. I was embarrassed, so I insisted on helping, but Carmelita just scolded me. So I didn't just insist on what I wanted.She also said I can help them more if I am fine, which makes sense.The woman became extra caring, and I didn't push too hard anymore. I don't know if it was just for the week, but I was happy even if it was temporary.We had a follow-up check-up last Friday and were cleared by the doctor, who said everything was fine. I felt relieved and was totally worried-free.It is Sunday now, and it is our day off. I still need crutches to support my feet, but I am totally fine. I managed to go to the market on my own. I rented a tricycle to take me there.Carmelita just

FERNANDO"TATAY JOSE, JUST CALL ME ANDY," I said, smiling at the old man. "Good morning, too," I responded.Yes, the caretaker, Mang Jose, or Tatay Jose, is with me now. I used to call him Tatay even then. And since I already had a phone, I contacted him right away and told him we would meet today because I wanted to go to the beach house. I also have to put my other stuff in there. The ones I brought from Manila."Silly, guy. Come. Let’s put your things in the back of the car," he said, and reached for my things."Thank you, Tatay," I said. I watched as he put my things in the back of the car. It seems that nothing much has really changed for him. He is just a little older, but Tatay Jose still looks a bit like the actor Dennis Padilla."There... Are you settled? Let's go?"I just nodded to the old man.We started to travel to the beach house. It is also quite far from the town and resort. During the ride, Tatay Jose, and I were still talking.He is just asking about my life in Manil

"I-EXCUSE ME. Is anyone there?" I knocked loudly on the door of the big house. Several minutes passed, but it seemed like nobody heard me, so I was about to knock again when the door suddenly opened. "Who are you? Why are you here?" the young girl who opened the door asked coldly. I was slightly taken aback by her unfriendly greeting, but I quickly remembered why I dared to knock on the door of the big house. "I-It's Rico, he need—-" "What's that, Nana? Who's there?" a woman approached the young girl. "She just knocked, Mommy. She mentioned Rico," the young girl said, still looking at me. "How do you know Rico, dear?" the woman asked me. That's when I told them everything that happened. They immediately responded, along with the woman's husband and their caretaker, Mang Jose. That's how our friendship with the new owners of the White House began. We met Nana, Rico's older sister, and Nana's twin brother Andy. Nana's real name is Fernanda, and Andy's real name is Fernando.

"COME ON, let's go inside," Agatha whispered. We were standing at the gate of the White House.I took a deep breath. Even though I had talked to my mom and asked her not to allow me to go when Agatha asked, she still let me. My clever friend said we were just going to play with Onin. Of course, my mom, who's so kind and easily persuaded by Agatha's antics, ended up allowing or even encouraging me to go.She even said that I should enjoy being a child while I still can, and she's confident wherever we go.Agatha's smile widened as she pulled me out of the bunkhouse. And Agatha's plan became more convincing because her dad was going to accompany us. I don't know what she said to her dad, but as I've said, Agatha is persistent. If she really wants to do something, she'll find a way."Hey, wait. We might get scolded," I panicked as she pulled me inside."Don't worry. Just be quiet. Shush," she said.As soon as we entered the gate, I froze and surveyed the surroundings. It was dark where w

17 YEARS AGO..."CARMEL, are you going to school?" my mother asked as she caught me by the door. I had just woken up."Yes, Mom. I didn't wake you up because I know you were so tired from working at the resort last night," I said, approaching her to kiss her on the cheek. "I'm leaving now," I added, about to step out but she stopped me again."Wait... have you eaten?""Yes, Mom. I cooked. Your breakfast is on the table. I also packed some food for you so you don't have to worry," I said with a smile.Tears welled up in my mother's eyes as she hugged me tightly. Though I was puzzled by her actions, I couldn't help but smile at her words. A mother's embrace is truly comforting."Oh... I'm so lucky to have you, Carmel. You're truly a blessing from God. Thank you, my child. I hope you never change," my mother said, smiling through tears."I'm also lucky because you're my mother. Okay, Mom. I'm leaving now. I love you, Mom," I said again.Her reply of 'I love you, too' was the last thing I

CARMELITA"BES...""You're grown now, bes. You know what you're getting yourself into," Agatha said to me before leaving my office.I almost had a moment with Ando if it weren't for my friend's arrival. I liked what was about to happen, but at the same time, I was relieved that something inappropriate didn't occur. I'm thankful that my friend arrived on time, but I'm extremely embarrassed because she witnessed the whole thing.Yes, I know I'm confusing. I'm confused about myself too.I obviously like him, and it's obvious how far I'm willing to go for him. But this is not how it's supposed to turn out. This is not the plan. This is not what should be happening.What was the plan? Why am I like this?The plan was simple. Make Fernando fall in love and tie him down to me permanently. I mean, make sure he has no way out. That's his punishment for making me wait for so long.And yes, everyone, I know Fernando Desejo Jr. I know him very well. How could I forget him? He is my first love!I

THIRD PERSON"MORE LIQUOR," SLURRED CARMELITA TO THE BARTENDER."You're already drunk, Carms. Go home before the creeps here take advantage of you," said the bartender, whose name was Jennifer."Nooo! Liquor, please," the intoxicated woman insisted."Oh, Carmel. Did you and Ando have a fight?" Jennifer asked.They were friends, so Jennifer could talk casually to Carmelita. She had also met Ando before. The first time Jennifer saw Carmelita drunk was when she found out that her employee was engaged to her.In Jennifer's mind, she couldn't blame Carmelita for being enchanted by Ando. He was very handsome, masculine, and seemed kind."No fight! He doesn't want me. He doesn't!" the woman exclaimed loudly.Other people in the bar were starting to stare at her."Please excuse us. She's just going through something," Jennifer apologized to the other customers. "She's harmless, so don't worry. Enjoy drinking, everyone!"Jennifer breathed a sigh of relief as the customers returned to their own

FERNANDOSINCE WE RETURNED FROM CORON, CARMELITA'S TREATMENT TOWARDS ME HAS CHANGED EVEN MORE.After the kiss we shared that night in Coron, I asked her to give me more time to consider her proposal. She looked hurt when I said that, but she quickly recovered.The next day, during the second day of our tour, she seemed a bit uneasy, or maybe it was just my imagination, because her behavior towards me became okay again, and she was still extra sweet and clingy. Until we returned home and went back to our normal routine at Mairaos resort, Carmelita's displayed interest in me became even more intense.Earlier, when Maribel was here, there was some tension between them. I saw how Carmelita looked so angry, like she wanted to kill someone. It was my first time seeing her like that. Because even though she could be grumpy, she had never really gotten angry before. I mean, ever since I arrived here in their place, I have never seen her lose her temper.But man, earlier, if Carmelita hadn't h

CARMELITA"I'M BEAT!" Agatha exclaimed as she sat next to me on the sofa. She took my wine glass and drank the wine.I just sighed and refilled my empty wine glass. Then, I took a sip without hesitation."Are you getting drunk?" she asked."Nope," I replied. "Is Tali asleep?""Yup. And she's snoring," Agatha replied.We were in the living room, watching a horror series on Netflix. It was a horror series that was recommended recently, "The Haunting of Bly Manor." I started watching it before we went to Coron, but I paused it because, well, we were on vacation. And yes, we're back home now. We're back in the house, and I'm continuing to watch it.Agatha was also watching with me. We're both fans of horror, suspense, and thriller stuff, so even if all the lights are off wherever we are and only the TV is on, we don't mind at all."I am ready to listen," Agatha said.I glanced at her in surprise. She wasn't looking at me but at the screen. She was also taking her time sipping her wine."I

FERNANDO"WHOA! It's so beautiful here!" exclaimed the twins. They ran and splashed into the water together."It really is beautiful here! These rock formations are the best. Let's take a picture, sis. Come on," Agatha said, and she and Tali took a selfie."Where are we again?" I heard Carmelita ask our boatman."We're at Barracuda Lake. We just came from Kayangan Lake. Fun fact: It's called Barracuda Lake because when you dive, you'll see the fish skeletons of barracudas below," our boatman, who we got to know as Mang Junior, explained."Ohh..." some of us murmured in response."Guys! Dive in! The underwater view is amazing!" Cole shouted as he appeared to invite us.The twins didn't wear life jackets because they're good swimmers. But they wore goggles to see underwater better.We brought our own swimming gear, so we didn't need what was provided by our tour guide. Well, all of us are from Marupok Island, and we all know the dos and don'ts of the sea.Anyway, we were excited to dive
The Broken Hearted Billionaire Chapter 19: The Whole Team
FERNANDO "OH MY GOD! It's so beautiful here!" exclaimed Agatha as we descended to our first destination for the day, Kayangan Lake. "Wow. What happened to 'Ha? Coron? Let's just do our team building here in Marupok. Marupok Island is much better than other places'. Ha? Sister Agatha?" teased Dylan to the woman. "Tsk! Marupok Island is really more beautiful. Coron is just second. No offense meant, Brother who's driving our boat," Agatha defended herself. "It's okay, ma'am," said the boatman. Agatha really is funny sometimes. "Mommy, I want to swim now," Talitha, the lively child, chimed in. Of course, she's still with us. Unlike other kids who are afraid of sailing on the ocean, this kid is different. She's very adventurous and always on the go. Maybe because she also grew up on an island. "Oh, let's go. What are we waiting for? Let's explore Lake Kayangan, everyone!" Agatha said excitedly and led the way off the boat, carrying Tali. "Agatha is hilarious, huh? At first, she wa
