Salvatore

Even though I wanted to stop her, I couldn’t do anything when Angel left. For now, I have no choice. But once she signs the contract, I’ll make sure she’s tied to the company.

Angel will be back on Monday to sign the contract and start working. In the meantime, I asked Mauro to prepare the office she’ll be using as head of the design department. I was in my office when the door suddenly swung open.

“Damn, Nadia!” I blurted out in surprise. “Don’t you know how to knock?”

“Where is she? Is it true?” she fired questions at me.

“Who?”

“You know exactly who I’m talking about, Sir!” This woman is just like Mauro. I’m her boss, but sometimes, she talks to me as if we’re equals.

“I have no idea what you mean. Just say it straight.” Of course, I knew. But I wasn’t going to let her get what she wanted easily.

“Angel. Is it true she’s here?”

“You’re late with the news. That was yesterday.”

“Why didn’t you let her see me?” she asked. She works in marketing, and everyone there is always

    Salvatore"Shouldn't I be going to HR? Why do I have to come here?" Angel asked as soon as she stepped in while I put the folder in my desk drawer."You know your hiring process wasn’t normal." I didn’t bother explaining further and just pointed her to the receiving area in front of my desk. I stood up to follow her because it looked like she had no plans of doing what I wanted.I placed the folder containing her contract on the center table before casually sitting down and waiting for her. I heard her sigh before finally seeing her walk over and sit on my right side. At least she still knew her place when it came to me."Read and then sign."She took the folder and started reading. Everything was fine at first, but soon, her forehead creased."I already said I’d only stay for a year," she said, looking at me with a creased forehead."Are you that confident the project will be successful within a year?" I asked."Yes. And if I can finish it earlier, I will," she replied."Then sign. W

    Angel"Mommy, how's work?" Savinna asked curiously. We were in the living room, having just finished dinner. I was preparing their laptops for their online classes. I looked at her and then at Savanna, who was also watching me."It's okay, why?" I replied casually. I didn’t want them to notice anything unusual about me. They're really quick to pick up on things, and once they do, they won’t stop asking questions."Nothing. You just feel... different." I looked at Savinna again and frowned at her response."What do you mean, different?""You usually tell us what happens to you when you go out. Even when you just go to the grocery without us, you’d still tell us how the cashier was either beautiful, annoying or too slow.""Oh, that? There’s nothing to tell because Mommy didn’t really do much today except draw," I reasoned. It's getting harder to make excuses with them. They're both smart, and I think they inherited that from their father. I remember Mauro once told me that Salvatore gra

    AngelI thought I had finally escaped from Nadia, but as soon as I stepped out of the design department, she awaited me. Turns out, it wasn’t true that I’d be staying in Salvatore’s office permanently. It just so happened that my desk hadn’t been delivered yet, so he let me stay there temporarily.“I really can’t get away from you, huh?” I asked with a smile.“And did you really think you could?” she replied before linking her arm with mine. I kept walking, and of course, she followed.“Are you going to come with me to my home?” I asked.“And what do you think? I already told my mom I’m staying over.” I laughed at her response and had no choice but to book a Grab.“Mommy!!!” Savinna yelled excitedly as soon as Nadia and I entered the condo. Savanna, on the other hand, just quietly followed her sister.“Hello, girls…” I greeted them, kneeling down with my arms open for a hug. “Meet Aunt Nadia.”“She’s Aunt Nadia?” Savanna’s eyes widened. I always told them stories about my best friend

    SalvatoreI threw my phone away the moment Angel ended the call. I was so frustrated because it felt like she really didn’t want to talk to me or discuss the past. I understood her anger, but I wished she would try to understand me and give me a chance, even once.I was excited to come in today, hoping to see her, but I found out she wouldn’t be here. I needed to find a way to talk to her alone, where she couldn’t escape. Even if I had to kidnap her and lock her in my condo.“What’s wrong with you? You look like a restless cow,” Mauro said as he entered my office, watching me pace back and forth. “And why is your phone on the floor?”“Angel’s not coming in.”“That’s it? And you threw your phone because of that?”“You don’t understand. She won’t talk to me.”“Well, that’s normal. Why don’t you just be more patient? You knew this would happen, right?” he replied, and I know that.“But there’s David waiting in the background.” Mauro let out a deep sigh, picked up my phone, walked over to

    Angel"Si," Angelo said when he saw me. I had called him earlier and found out he was still in school, so I told him to meet me after class. At first, he couldn’t believe it when I told him who I was. It's a good thing I was using Nadia’s number; otherwise, he probably would’ve just hung up."Angelo," I replied. He had grown so much; he was practically a full-grown man now. Tears welled up in his eyes as he hugged me tightly. I could feel how solid his body was; it was clear he hit the gym regularly. At eighteen, anyone would think he was already in his twenties."Wow, you’re even bigger than me! I thought your class ended later. Why are you here so early?" I asked as we pulled apart. I took a closer look at him, and he did the same, still shocked by my sudden appearance."I couldn’t wait any longer. Why did it take you so long to show up?" His voice carried a mix of sadness and frustration. I couldn’t blame him. I hadn’t contacted him or Nadia at all. I planned to wait until everythi

    AngelThe next day, I went to work early, hoping I'd catch a glimpse of Salvatore. But that didn't happen because he wasn't there. I wanted to ask Mauro, but I didn't want him to get any ideas or feel awkward, so I decided to wait for Salvatore to show up on his own.A week passed, and Salvatore still hadn't come in. If Mauro hadn't seemed so cheerful every time I saw him, I would've thought something bad had happened."Mom, I thought you were going to let us meet our daddy?" Savanna asked one Saturday while we were just at home."I haven't talked to him yet. He hasn't shown up at work.""What do you mean he hasn't shown up? Did something bad happen to him? Why don't you ask Aunt Nadia or Uncle Angelo?" my daughter asked, looking worried.That made sense, but I felt too embarrassed to ask. "I'm sure nothing bad happened. His friend at the office seems fine.""Are you sure?" Savanna asked, frowning. I just smiled and nodded."Don't worry, I'll take you to him when the time is right, ok

    Angel"If I could turn back time, I’d change how I pushed you away. Believe me, baby, I had my reasons." I stayed silent, just staring at him while remembering what Angelo told me. Salvatore still loved me, and his feelings for me never changed."Yeah, and one of those reasons is that you already like someone else," I replied. I begged him to tell me that he still loved me, not to push me away, and that's what he told me.He quickly shook his head. The tears still filled his eyes and now streamed down his cheeks."It's you," he said in a hoarse voice."Me?""I only like you. Ever since I first saw you, you’ve been the only woman I liked.""Who’s this woman you’re talking about then?""It’s you. I just said those things so you’d leave, so you could get angry at me, hoping you'd not get hurt." I couldn’t help but laugh a little at what he said."So, you thought I wouldn’t get hurt if I was mad at you instead of heartbroken?"He lowered his head after I said that. He didn’t answer, maybe

    Angel"Are you done?" I asked, trying to stay strong even though all I wanted was to hug him right then and there. I hated seeing him like this. He looked helpless, so far from the Salvatore I used to know."Baby, please..." he begged."I listened to you," I said. "But if you think I’ll forgive you just because I heard your explanation, you’re wrong. You could’ve talked to me and explained everything before you decided to push me away and break my heart into pieces. You could’ve asked me if I was willing to help with whatever plan you had. But no-""I just didn’t—" He tried to cut me off, but I didn’t let him."If you’re done explaining, you can leave. I have things to do." I put my feet down and stood up, but he suddenly hugged me, making me uncomfortable since he was on his knees, burying his face against my stomach."Baby, please…" he whispered, so I quickly grabbed his hands to free myself. Who knows what might happen next? Oh, Gosh!"Let me go, Salvatore," I said, looking down at
