To Wait

last update Last Updated: 2021-10-11 17:30:17

The cafeteria I expected to be full since it's break time was consumed by one customer only, and that's Neil, who's now making a sit in his VIP chair. Many waitresses ran towards him, giggling. But Neil's strange reaction caught my attention. Wearing my normal smile, I walked closer to him.

"Are you okay, Sir?" I asked, and a waitress asked my order, but since I was focused on Neil's impending response, she just stood near me and waited for my order. "Did Marcus tell you something earlier?"

My hand was shaking and there was already a lump in my throat that kept blocking my airway. No, this couldn't be. The deal between me and my cousin had not ended yet, which meant I still had time to finish my task. Though Neil's current reaction made me think negatively. His eyes were so dark and they almost screamed for bullets. No wonder why some employees never dared to greet him because it was obvious he's having a hard time.

When mom was still here, Neil was not like thi

    "We had an agreement, right? So why did you tell Neil about that German?"I was now facing Marcus, the bastard, feeling so faltered knowing all my plans were all worthless. All the times that I tried my best to calm down seemed like a garbage in a trash."I told you, cousin. I don't like to wait. What I mean in giving you a chance to do what I want you to accomplish is to do it within a day but you seem to forget our deal."You really are unclear. Of course, preventing that important negotiation will take a very long time to accomplish. How can I make Neil to do me a favor to me if he cannot even remember me?"Well, what can I do now? I already told him about this USB?" He raised something in the air, and I balled my fist in irritation. In too much emotion, tears were already pooling in every corner of my eyes. Some customers loooked at my direction, and a kind kid also managed to hand a handkerchief

    "I am just stating my knowledge," he answered with full of authority. He went back to his own table and fixed something in his laptop. No one of us dared to bother him, even Daniel looked uncertain to make a single move."I want to talk with Daniel alone. I am now off and --" I excused but being cut of by his sudden stare. His orbs full of tensions. His jaw and throat worked as if he could kill if I talked for more. "Fine, Sir. Sorry for interrupting your working hours."He smiled and acknowledged me by nodding his head without glimpsing at me. Daniel, whose breathing was audible, just got one doughnut and sometimes threw smiles for me. We waited for our boss to call us first before making a move. I wasn't sure what made him busy in his laptop but I had this feeling he was fixing my problem. I thought I was going to meet his secretary now but I met no one. He's a businessman, an extraordinary one, and so having a Secretary was a must for him.Me, being his Perso

    Salvenas group came earlier to personally communicate with Neil. I wasn't inside the office where they talked but I had this feeling that their topic was all about that tape. I was shaking while waiting in the receptionist area. Many greeted by I didn't mind all their heartwarming greatings.Sandoval securities scattered all around this building, and few employees already noticed the fact that there was a fight happening.Also, Salevans guards were spread all over this floor. I couldn't determine each of them since they seemed disguising again. All I wanted to know was the possible happening inside our floor. Neil was alone there again -- I even forced him to bring Daniel but he disagreed by my suggestion. Mom, who's now wearing an undescribable expression, ran towards me. She was breathing up and down like me. She almost lost her balance but good thing I immediately held her arms to support her weight."The Salvenas are here again?" I was taken off guard by the

    Neil didn't see how my lips parted because he already marched away from me. I was left open-mouthed by the words he had said. My heart throbbed for a moment, and I temporarily forgot I was in my working hours yet here I was being so dramatic again. Before my eyes could produce some tears, I busied myself in checking Neil's schedule.He sent a message to me about the location where he was now. My brows palpitated seeing the word 'bar' in his second message. I wanted to ask him why he was in there, but when Felicia, who's now wearing her usual captivating smile, blocked my vision, I put my phone inside my pocket to entertain her."Hey, Felicia. Do you want to meet Neil?" I asked her. Neil must be the reason why she was here again. "Actually, he's not here. But I can send his current location now if your intention really is urgent." I flashed my smile."I am not here for him. I just came here so that I can tell you somethin

    Loving Sydney was a great torture to me. I had been forcing myself to at least forget her but I could not and I should not. I should not because she's my life. I could not imagine life without her. I knew that the love I felt towards her was forbidden, not to mention that I was the only one who was trying so hard, but I couldn't really stop myself from falling again and again.Her name was Sydney Klein, the only one girl I was in love with. We were already friends ever since we were highschool students. I thought before that we would end up being together because I was the only one in her life but life really is unpredictable. Without my consent, she loved someone she met named Neil."I told to you forget her but you are so stubborn," my father said and poured a drink in my glass. I devoured the content, and bitterness flowed down through my veins. My muscles contracted and I felt nothing but pity of myself for being like this, for crying like an idiot human like this.

    "I'll pay you... Just tell me her full identity," I said to her manager. I even did not know her name! I made love with the woman who's still hiding her real identity from everyone! She might have trust issues that's why I tried to understand her. But days had passed but we were still like playing game while I did know my playmate's name. It might have a story behind her back that's why she's hiding. Fuck this. Should I really continue this fucking game of mine despite the fact that I had a wife?"No matter how I would like to tell you the truth, she really does not want to tell something, even her name, to protect her identity. Actually you are not the only one who came here to ask the same thing because many already did ask me. The thing is, she has a favor, and it is my job to secure it. Sorry but you cannot buy it using money."The manager excused herself after her long speech. I almost offered my life for her to do me a favor. I named millions of cash but she stil

    This was it. Mom just announced a meeting with me, Neil and Felicia. Speaking of Felicia, she's the someone I never expected to be with in a family meeting since for me she's an outsider, but for the sake of peace, I would just let her because I was sure all she had to do in this meeting was to listen like a good child.My heart was beating rapidly in its abnormal state. I felt like anytime it would explode inside my chest. Neil, in contrary, still looked properly maintained and could be even to smile despite of so many problems.When we reached our promised room, we all sat and busied ourselves with some matter when Mom had not arrived yet, and when she had finally, all respected her presence by bowing down our head.Calm down, I told my heart; because until now it was throbbing so wildly still. This could be the cause of my death if it wouldn't stop from beating rapidly. I breathed in and out. This moment was being announced unexpectedly earlier. I even though

    "What are you doing?!"I continued what I was doing and didn't mind her questions and etc. Her stopping and grabbing my hand were no use because I was determined to finish what I preached. What was gotten into me to be like this? Oh yeah, because of that conversation I had with Neil earlier of him telling me to mind my own business regardless I was just trying to at least show my support to him was the reason why I was doing this -- compiling some of my clothes and some important document, maids in my front looking so confused upon seeing me like this.They also tried to stop me but still no use. I just wished to reside in another place and start to have a one-week or one-month vacation. My mind was all messed up and I might die if I continued living in this mansion and at the same time minding lots of problems and feelings how people around me blamed me for everything!"Are you even thinking?

    Mom and I were finally okay. She asked for my forgiveness even though I never loathed her. For all the bad things she had done to me, I still loved her. Nothing could change that fact."What is the name of this place once again, Mom?" Kyra asked curiously as she roamed her eyes around the place.A smile touched my lips. "Azucalda."We were safe to live not worrying about anything. Ambrosia's family were now settled in jail. Daniel, also, already found his life, the woman who would change the fake romantic love he felt towards me. "This is where we belong, Kyra. Be comfortable in this place, because starting from now, we will leave here, we will start new memories," I hugged her."When Dad will come back?" she asked me out of the blue. "I mean, we have been already waiting for years! Last night, Dad and I talked, but since this morning, he never texted me anymore. I am worrying, Mom! What if he alread

    "If I could just turn back the time."I was used to say that statement to myself. Days and years without Sydney, I realized life was hard without her. Though I had no choice, I could not get her back because I had no right. I hurt her. I should face the consequences of my actions."Sydney has a daughter, Auntie. And she is now currently studying. She is an academic achiever," Marcus informed me. Marcus was one of my enemy before even though we were blood related, but as time gone by, we became close and decided to help each other."I have a granddaughter, then..." I whispered using my weak voice. That meant that Sydney was pregnant during the moments she was not in this country. That meant she lived without my guide. That meant she raised my grandaughter alone. "I have remembered what you told me before. You told me she has a business in this country, right?"He nodded. "She owns a grocery."&

    We still lived in the same house, and I witnessed how they both loved each other. But I never liked that."Auntie Trinidad, I successfully closed the deal," Neil announced to me. To my delight, I smiled. "Thanks to Sydney, though. He pushed me to work hard."I heard a lot of news from work, especially from company employees. Because Sydney and Neil worked often at the same time... they also went home together so that caused surprise to others."I know they are both married," Marcus threatened me. This businessman had never really changed. Still ruthless. There was no sanctification. Even so, I still treated him well because we were just relatives. I know he was not gay to spread the word."Just do not let them know." I got up. I would have planned to build a boutique. Because since I was a child, that was really what I wanted to have. Now that Neil was taking care of the company, maybe

    "Starting today, you are the only one I will love. Expect me to love you every day."I closed my eyes when Zimon, my husband, gently gave his tender kisses to me. To this day, I still could not believe it. We were married. We were officially legal.Our family welcomed us as well. Nothing could stop us from being together. We would also be able to form our dreams together, and one of them was having a child, or if possible ‘children’. We even wanted a girl to be our first child. But what the Lord gave us, we would wholeheartedly accept it."Zimon, here is your lunchbox. Please, do not stay up too late at work. I know you want to give us a very good future but we are already rich. I am not proud of our living condition, but I just hope you learn how to rest, okay?"That was really what I kelt reminding him of. Health was important so I wanted him to take care of himself.

    How many times had I tried to love my child as much as many mothers like me love. But even so, I still could not bear to look at her without remembering what his Dad did to me and how he hurt me until I was exhausted.I could say that me giving her birth was the most important event in my life, but like I said, I could not... I could not afford to love her, because whenever I smiled at her, I felt like I just forgave her Dad right away. And for me, that shoul not have happened. No one could stop me...I did not know if my own child hated me. If she wanted to hate me until she voluntarily gave up, go on! I did not care. Even if it was bad in the eyes of others, I would do what I thought was good for me, for the comfort of my chest."Is the average yourself from studying? How dare you smile at me while you were showing this shit to me? How many times have I told you that this grade is not enough for me? You are stupid, really. I am still wondering why you ev

    When we were at the venue, we looked around. Until the woman who invited us to be in here acknowledged us with a big smile. I immediately recognized her because of the sweetness of her smile. She talked to us and the other guests. I could say the event was really social and prepared for elites because you could just see from the guests' gowns that they were really expensive. Not to mention that Neil Sandoval was admired by many."Hi, there is still an empty table near the long table. Other guests also want to meet you. Because you know how much everyone admires you, Neil Sandoval," the woman praised him again.Neil was really grabbing attention now, not only because he was handsome in what he was wearing, but also because he looked like the girl he was holding so tightly. Just a look at them and you would know that they were blood related - the way they walked was similar.Anyway, he was no longer wearing jogging pants. Before we finally went here we also reserv

    "Thank you, Sydney," said the one in front of me. Because of the bonfire, his eyes seemed to be on fire as well. You could even mirror yourself through those orbs. "I will be back. I will be back safe. I am not going to hurt myself."I knew. Because of Kyra, you would have even more reason to be safe forever. We both knew we could not afford to see Kyra struggling, so that was enough reason for both of us to make sure we were safe."Are you cold already? Do you want us to go inside?" he asked me."You? Do you want to?""Yeah, so that Kyra can lie down properly."I laughed and immediately stood up. We entered the house, and I helped him put Kyra to bed. Even though I was just helping, I could already feel the weight of my daughter."I'm leaving--"I stopped him."Just sleep here. It's okay with me."He was shocked. He looked at me with indescribable amazement in his eyes. "All right. But I will just sleep on the sofa so y

    "You are really sweet, Dad! Mama must have sweetly answered you so you prepared all of these!" Kyra shouted happily at Neil. Neil, on the other hand, still looked serious, who also seemed to just chose to smile even though the truth was, just like me, he also felt a lot of embarrassment right now.Soon, the cold wind blew, and we all sat down to begin what had to begin."Kyra, darling, don't be surprised by what we are going to say but ..." Neil took a deep breath, and in the depth of it, I almost drowned. "I'm doing this for you, for your future and for your mommy's. I can't just be here forever and happy without worrying about of our business."Kyra fell silent. Her smile faded. She turned to me, and I averted my eyes. I had tears in my eyes now, and I did not want them to see me being emotional.Maybe it was just because I was so tired. Tomorrow, I would definitely okay again."Are you leaving?"

    I almost kissed him. I meant, I almost kissed him! Marcus' appearance was really right so that Neil wouldn't think that only Azucalda would soften my heart and push me to kiss him. Goodness, I still had to control myself. It was not because I was happy with what he said that I would tolerate it. You were indeed a great fool, self."Oh, why did you two stop? Go on with what you were supposed to do and I will just quietly watch it." And as expected, Marcus never left us again. He would really use what he saw to make me die of nervousness. "It's a pity that Kyra did not see you almost kissing. I hope I was able to take a picture too!"Neil picked up some sand and threw it towards my cousin's face. I also wanted to keep laughing at him because his cheeks were red like a ripe tomato."Jerk! Get out of here! You have a business problem so prioritize that over messing with us here!" I told him.
