What's Your Order, Mr Billionaire Chapter 9
Chapter 9Hindi na ako nakatulog, paglabas niya ng kwarto ko. Ilang saglit kong minulat ang mata ko para iproseso ang sinabi niya. Ako? Precious to him? Kailan pa? We've just only met again last Monday, a...Posible ba iyon na mahalaga na agad ako sa kanya—'di ba ngayon-ngayon lang naman kami naging close? O kaya ganito ba siya pumorma sa mga naging girlfriend niya?Speaking of girlfriends, I've never heard of him getting a girlfriend from any news source, not even the TV network that they own. Some are linked to him, but his PR team will quickly respond with a statement denying it. He also rarely appears in newspapers or on television because, despite being the CEO of Almerino TV Network, he keeps his personal life private.Ugh! Bago pa sumakit ang ulo ko sa kaiiisip ay itinaklob ko na ang unan sa mukha ko. Pinilit kong matulog para hindi ako antukin sa trabaho ko mamaya. Paggising ko, bumangon agad ako at kinuha ang puting tuwalya sa aparador. I went outside my room, and Tita wa

Chapter 10"Hindi mo na kailangang alamin kung kailan kita unang nagustuhan basta ang mahalaga maipakita ko sa 'yo na sinsero ako sa panliligaw sa 'yo at hindi ito isang laro lang."My heart raced around in my chest, beating furiously and causing my chest to rise and fall with short breaths. How does he say it so naturally? Sasagot pa sana ako ngunit hindi ko mahanap sa utak ko ang dapat kong sabihin. Tumingin na lang ako sa labas ng bintana para mapagtakpan ang kabang nararamdaman ko. "Has the cat got your tongue?" He chuckled as he looked at my side."Prangka ka rin pala, 'no?" I said flatly, unable to make my voice work properly."I wasted so many years; I won't waste time now that I have the opportunity to express myself to you." He looked over at me again, his brow furrowed, before returning his gaze to the road.Mas lalo lang akong napipi at hindi na nakapagsalita ngunit bigla ko na namang naalala ang nalalapit na kasal niya dahilan para mapalitan ng pait ang nararamdaman ko.

Chapter 11I'm on the verge of falling for him, which is downright terrifying. Is this even logical? Yes, I've known him for a long time, but it's only been five days since we've become closer. However, amidst the short amount of time I spent with him, I was able to sense how attentive he is to me. How tender he is with my Tita and Josue.How he went out of his way to do things for me. Ang paggising niya ng madaling-araw para sunduin ako. I know it's too soon to tell, but I could tell he genuinely cares about me. When he tucks my hair behind my ear, and massage my hands and feet, I can tell how much he cares for me.'Yong mga tingin niya sa akin na walang halong pagnanasa, 'yong pagpaparamdam sa akin na sapat ako kahit marami akong kapintasan. How he considers my comforts and likings, as well as the people around me.He compliments every aspect of me, including my flaws.My curly hair, which he knows I inherited from my Aeta mother. My olive skin, which he adores and which I inherit

Chapter 12Kabado man ay nagawa ko pa ring magbigay ng serbisyo para kay Madam Chong. Dahil may katandaan na siya at maliit na bulas lang ang katawan niya ay hindi masyadong malakas ang puwersa ng masahe ko sa kanya. I only gave her a light, gentle massage and passive stretching to relieve muscle tension without causing too much friction on her skin. Sa ganitong paraan ng masahe, nakakatulong ito para sa sirkulasyon ng kaniyang dugo at nakakabuti rin para sa kanyang pustura. "I haven't had a massage in a long time; thank you, Mei Mei," aniya habang kausap ang matandang minamasahe ni Vina."Anything for you, Cheng," Madam Ngan murmured. "Ai, what time will Yǎ kè pick you up? Where is he now?"Naramdaman ko ang paghugot ng buntong-hininga ng matandang minamasahe ko. "He will be here in a moment. Xìnxīn ne?"(Translation: How about Xìnxīn?)"Wǒ bù zhīdào, she said she'd come. Lagot sa akin ang batang 'yon kapag hindi siya dumating," sagot naman niya pabalik.(Translation: I don't know)

Chapter 13Martes na nang magkuwento ako sa mga kaibigan ko. Hindi kasi nila ako tinitigilan hanggat hindi ako nagsasabi. "Maling mindset 'yan, Jen. Pinaghihinalaan mo gayong nagpaalam naman pala sa 'yo," untag ni Vina habang sumisimsim kami ng popsicle sa kalagitnaan ng gabi. Walang client kaya petiks muna kami rito sa locker room."Hindi ko pinaghihinalaan, nagtataka lang ako kung bakit kailangan niyang magsinungaling. Narinig mo naman, 'di ba? Naikuwento ni Madam Ngan na sasamahan niya si Faith sa Brunswick..." Humugot ako ng buntong-hininga. Naiinis din ako sa sarili ko dahil kung anu-ano na ang pumapasok sa utak ko which is hindi dapat. Maling pag-isipan ko siya ng masama dahil pakiramdam ko totoo naman ang intensiyon niya. Totoo lahat ng ipinakita niya sa akin. Kasi, sinong tangang tao ang gigising o magpupuyat para lang masundo ako sa madaling-araw? Sina Leon, Miles at Maximus nga hindi nagawa 'yon noong kami pa, e! Hindi naman required na dapat akong sunduin pero bakit niya

Chapter 14Kumilos ako ng normal pagkabangon ko, ni hindi ko ipinakita sa kapatid ko na masakit ang sikmura ko dahil sa natamo kong malakas na suntok galing sa client ko. "Y-you're also drin-king v-vitamins to stay healthy, Ma-nang?"Muntik ko nang mabitiwan ang hawak kong aluminum na baso dahil sa bigla niyang pagsulpot sa likod ko. Niyakap niya ang braso ko at bahagyang dinampian ng halik gaya ng ginagawa niya tuwing naglalambing sa akin."Oo, para strong si Manang palagi," sagot ko sabay lagay ng capsule sa bibig ko. Gamot iyon upang mabawasan ang pamamaga at pananakit ng tiyan ko. "Kumain ka na ba?" Umupo ako sa harap ng hapag. He nodded quickly and sat in front of me. "Ikaw? Ba-kit hindi ka kakain?" Alala niyang tanong. Ngumiti ako, tumayo at ginulo ang buhok niya. "Diet si Manang ngayon.""Diet? Pa-yat na nga ang Ma-nang ko, ba't diet?" Pangungulit niya habang nakatingin sa akin. Milo jumps up next to his chair and casts a glance my way. Sa araw-araw na nakikita ko siya rito

Chapter 15"Miss Jen, shall we?" The butler extended his right hand and guided us along. We started walking, but I paused to lift my head to check if Jacques was still in watching us from the top-to-ceiling window. When I saw that Miss Faith was already standing by his side, I suddenly felt my heart twitch. Nakahawak pa siya sa balikat ng binata at may sinasabi siya rito. The butler clarified my confusion by saying, "If you're wondering who they're talking to, Miss Faith is asking why are you here.""Why even do you know? You're strange." I continued focusing on those two."I can read lips from a distance."I cast him a sidelong glance because I couldn't believe what he had said, and he responded with a smile that had a hint of arrogance. "That stare has something in it," turo niya sa mukha ko. Nakakunot na kasi ako at hindi maipinta ang mukha ko. Sinimangutan ko siya kaya tumawa siya. "You're jealous..." I frowned while drawing my brows closer together. "I'm not. Why would I be j

Chapter 16I was gradually lowering my guard around him, and I was starting to enjoy it. I feel comfortable with him now. Kapag papasok ako o uuwi galing trabaho, bulto niya agad ang hinahanap ng mga mata ko. His presence can immediately calms my spirit, and I can tell that I'm the only one receiving his undivided love and attention. "Ate Jen, sundo mo...." Inginuso ni Elaine ang lalaking tinutukoy niya na agad ko ring naispatan. Sa halos gabi-gabi at tuwing madaling-araw na paghahatid-sundo niya sa akin ay sanay na ang mga katrabaho kong nakikita siyang naghihintay sa akin. He was dressed comfortably and was leaning against his car with his arms crossed. Naka-white t-shirt lang siya, black sweatpants at black sneakers. Simple lang ang mga iyon ngunit alam kung mamahalin ang bawat suot niya. Nang makita niya ako, naglakad siya palapit sa amin.His admiring gaze at me alone caused my face to flush. I bowed my head and pretended to look inside my bag because I didn't want to show how

I am so grateful that you've reached this point. Thank you so much. May we all realize, especially the young generation, that anchoring yourself into positivity and self-growth is never selfish.Epilogue "How about you, Jacq? Naniniwala ka ba sa 'love at first sight'?" tanong ni Maximus habang inaabot sa akin ang isang shot ng Jack Daniels.I am doing my thesis in my study room, and here they are, invading my privacy. But it is fine with me; bihira na lang kaming magkita. They are all studying in Cebu; I am here in Manila.I scoffed. "That's bullshit." Nag-pass ako sa alak. Seryoso ako sa pagtatype ng conclusion sa laptop na nasa harap ko."Sinasabi mo lang 'yan, pero baka kapag tinamaan ka, wala ka nang kawala," Maximus said as he passed the glass shot to Miles, my half-Irish friend."I also don't believe it; crush at first sight, puwede pa," si Leon."Who believes in that? We belong to the new generation now; more girls, more fun!" Miles, who's beside me, takes a look at what I'm

Chapter 47This is the final chapter. Thank you for being with me on the journey with my babies. Please also support me in my next series! Abangan ang epilogue!"You look nervous, baby." Jacques tilted his head while gently holding my hands. "Come here." Hinila niya ako upang kumandong sa kanya."I am..." Yumuko at pinaglaruan ang engagement ring na nasa daliri ko. Isinuot ko iyon kanina pagkatapos kong maligo. Jacques also touched my ring. I could hear his breathing in my ear, and it tickled me."I promise you everything will be okay, hmm?"I pouted, trying to push back the fear that was threatening to overwhelm me. "I'm nervous. I don't know what to expect.""I'm here for you, sasamahan kita hanggang sa loob."We just arrived at the airport and boarded our special flight to Manila to visit my mother. Hindi ko maiwasang makaramdam ng pagkabalisa."What if I trigger her emotions? Baka kung ano na naman ang sabihin niya sa akin Jacques..." Tiningnan ko ang kanang kamay kong magaling na

Chapter 46"I love you, too, Jacques. Nagsinungaling ako noong sinabi kong hindi na kita mahal. Ang totoo, mahal na mahal pa rin kita nadaig lang ako ng galit noong makita ulit kita," I sniffed, and he held my hand gently. "I'm sorry if I push you away. I wasn't there for you; I'm really sorry."I still couldn't stop myself from crying while my breath came in ragged gasps. Parang pinipiga ng paulit-ulit ang puso ko.Jacques tenderly held me close and soothed my back. "I'm doing great now, baby. It was a lot to take in, but I healed myself for you; I healed myself because I want to be strong for you."I sniffled as I drew away from the hug. Jacques stared at me intently as he wiped the tears from my eyes. "I love you so much, Jacques," halos pabulong kong sabi."I know, and I love you too," he replied, placing a kiss on my forehead. "I'm so grateful to be back with you now."Jacques' touch was gentle and soothing, a balm to our wounded hearts. His words were like a magic wand, soothing

Chapter 45Nanginginig ang kaliwang kamay ko nang pulutin ko sa sahig ang nahulog kong mobile phone. The words from Leon bring a thud to my heart. Hindi pa iyon agad rumihistro sa utak ko."This can't be. You are lying," halos pabulong kong sabi sa kanya. "I'm telling you the truth. Jacques was kidnapped when your family was killed. Dalawang taon siyang pinaghahahanap ng mga tauhan nina Auntie Thylane. She never announced it to the media because it would jeopardize all of their businesses."Napaupo ako sa sofa sa sobrang panghihina. Niyakap ko ang dilaw na throw pillow, umaasang makaaamot ako roon ng suporta.Umiling ako ng maraming beses. No! This can't be, nagbibiro lang si Leon! Jacques was healthy when I saw him. Pumayat lang siya ngunit maayos pa rin naman ang anyo niya."He was so thin when Clytius and Deukalíōn finally found him tightly tied up in a dessert building somewhere in Santander, Cebu. Halos hindi na siya makilala dahil mukha siyang pinaglaruan ng mga taong kumuha sa

Chapter 44Kinakabahan ako habang paupo kami sa right-side balcony. I saw many familiar faces while we were entering the concert hall a while ago. Almost all of the royalties from all over the world attended."Sis, umayos ka nga!" Nala pinched my side.Ngumuso ako. Hindi ko siya sinagot bagkus luminga ako sa paligid namin. Wala naman akong nakikitang bantay ni Jacques. May isa akong napansin kanina, pero hindi niya ako nakilala dahil nakasalamin na itim at may balabal pa ang aking ulo."Parang hindi ka pa sanay manood ng concert niya, e halos siya nga ang pinupuntahan mo tuwing dumadaong ang barko sa mga concert events niya," dagdag pa niya. She then held me the binoculars. Medyo malayo kasi ang puwesto namin. "Baka nga mahuli ako," sagot ko."Bakit ba kasi ayaw mo pang magpakita? Ilang taon na rin, ah?""Wala lang. I'm still enjoying watching him from a distance." Sumilip ako sa binoculars. "Sus! Ang sabihin mo, na-enjoy mo na ang pagiging single. Mukhang ayos ka na kahit hindi ka

Chapter 43"Nag-usap na kayo?" Lucas whispered at me as we fell in line to board the cruise ship. Malayo sa amin si Jacques, nasa pinakadulo siyang pila. Sinadya yatang magpahuli."Hindi," maikli kong tugon. Marami nang passengers at napaaga ang balik nila kaya nakapila na rin sila para mag check-in. Some were so loud that I even put on my airpods to not hear them. Naintindihan naman agad ni Lucas na ayaw ko ng kausap, kaya tinigilan niya ako.I fight the urge to look back again and search for him.Nang matapos ay dumiretso agad ako sa cabin. I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth and take a bath. Natulog ako pagkatapos na matuyo ang aking buhok. Pang-gabi ako ngayon, kaya gigising ako mamayang hapon.When it was time, I got up and took a shower. As usual, ay marami nang customer noong magclock-in ako. As soon as I entered the restaurant, I immediately stepped back into the mode of working under excessive pressure. I love mingling with passengers and serving them.It's never a dull

"Ukininana kitdi ti kastoy nga biag, makauma!"Umirap ako sa hangin habang sinusundan ko si Avril, ang waitress namin paakyat ng VIP floor kung nasaan ang sinasabi niyang mga bisita. Habang naglalakad kami ay nadadaanan namin ang ilan sa aming mga patron dito sa Serene & Loud Restobar.Binabati nila ako, at kumakaway naman ako na nakangiti. Sa halos mahabang panahon na pagtatrabaho rito ay kilala na ako ng halos lahat ng mga customers."Sino ba iyon? Bakit ako pinatatawag?" tanong ko sa kanya."Si Sir Almerino," maikli niyang sagot. Lumingon siya sa akin at bakas sa ngiti niya ang panunudyo."S-sinong Almerino. Si Koko?" nauutal kong tanong. Biglang sinakmal ng kaba ang dibdib ko.Nagningning ang mga mata niya at sinabing, "Bakit naman mapupunta si Koko sa VIP Room, e, nag-out na siya kanina pa?""Sino nga?!" Nagsisimula nang uminit ang ulo ko. Ang daming hanash nitong babaeng 'to, hindi pa sabihin kung sino. Natataranta na ako sa loob-loob ko."Si, Sir Jacques!" Napahawak pa ang dala

Chapter 41Tinupad nga niya ang mga binitiwan niyang salita kanina. He didn't come near me, but he visited and dined in our restaurant around 7 a.m.Halos matulala ako sa kaguwapuhan niya nang makita ko siyang prenteng naka-dekuwatro sa labas ng restaurant. Doon daw niya mas piniling kumain ayon sa waiter na nag-assist sa kanya.Simpleng puting t-shirt at itim na boardshorts ang suot niya ngunit bakit ganoon? His hair was slicked back, which made him more striking. His neatly shaven beard gave him an impeccable look as well. Idagdag mo pa ang shades niyang itim, you could mistake him for a celebrity.A coffee was in front of him while he was typing on his laptop. A turkey patty, a sunny side-up egg, and one slice of Spanish tortilla were on his plate. Tutok na tutok ang pansin niya sa laptop, hindi namamalayang halos lahat ng kababaihan ay nakatitig na sa kanya."Baka matunaw, sis," Nala said, giving me a teasing look.Inirapan ko siya. Pumasok akong muli sa kusina. Sumunod siya haban

Chapter 40"Nala naman! Hindi mo man lang tiningnan! Inubos na ang alak, o!"I can hear Tina's voice in the background as I lay my face on the table. Umiikot na kasi ang mundo at paningin ko. Mabilis akong tinamaan ng rum na ininom ko. Naramdaman ko ang pagyugyog niya sa akin. Itinaas ko lang ang kanang kamay ko."Are you okay?" She asked, gently cupping my face and making me face her.Nakapikit ako, pero tumango ako. "I'm okay," I mumbled.Narinig ko ang isang tunog ngunit hindi ko alam kung sino ang hinampas ng kung sino. "Ikaw kasi! Nakatutok lang siguro kay Sir Almerino ang mga mata mo!" si Tina.I couldn't stop myself from curving my brow."Wait! You know him?" Nala asked excitedly. "Ipakilala mo ako dali! Kanina pa siya tumitingin dito sa gawi namin! Feeling ko, na-love at first sight sa akin..."Nagmulat ako ng mga mata. Inaninag ang kanilang mga mukha. Nakita kong hinampas ni Tina si Nala sa braso, hawak pa rin niya ako sa kaliwa niyang kamay. "Puro ka pogi kaya walang nagses
