Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Hidden Bilionaire (Hearts Series 1&2): Kabanata 121 - Kabanata 130

Lahat kami ay tumingin sa isa’t isa, sympathy on our faces. Nakatayo lang kami, letting silence surround us."Sorry sir, Eion is just...being Eion..." There was more to it just by Luke's tone of voice.Eion's dad shook his head again slightly, his actions limited as needles and pointy things were stuck in his arm. "I'm used to it. He's my son after all. He really does hate me...I just wanted to see his face, it was the main reason why I ordered him here...."Tumingin ako sa sahig. The silence surrounding us was not entirely deafening as there was the constant sound of the machine, showing Eion's dad's heartbeat. But it was an empty silence. Just empty."Well, I gotta go and pee haha," Leroy suddenly spoke up, breaking it. Naglakad na sya at binuksan ang pinto ng biglang natigilan. "Look...who we got here," Leroy said. His eyes widened as big as saucers, and he swallowed down."Who was it?" Emma piped in, curious about who was the person at the doorway. He pushed Leroy aside who was b

Tumango ako, smiling sheepishly. "I was just sightseeing..." Psh, what can I say? I'm so ignorant!Tumango sya in acknowledgment at the worker, "Mario.""Sir Eion! Kamusta kana na?" (Sir Eion, how are you?)"Ayos lang, Mario. Musta na ang resort?" (I'm okay, Mario. How's the resort?)"Ayos na ayos naman sir. Miss na miss kana nga eh. Lalo pa ng mga chicks dito." (Still okay sir. It misses you. Especially the girls here) I looked at them left and right. They are friends...Eion looked irritated, sighing heavily while his eyebrows furrowing. "Diba sabi ko? Wag mo na kong tawagin sir? Magamigo naman tang duwa." (Did I already told you? Don't call me sir. We are friends since childhood after all.)Mario grinned sheepishly, "Aba, Sir Eion, gusto ko eh. Pampainis. Parang matanda ka pakinggan. Haha!" He chuckled. (Sir Eion, I want it.!Just for annoying you. It's like your an old man. Haha!)"Bahala ka na. Sige, kunin ko lang tong kaibigan ko. Baka naabala kapa nito." (Nevermind you. I'll jus

"Worry? For what?" I turn to him, nagtama ang aking mga kilay."For someone seeing you with a bikini. To be honest I despise it also. He said, and continued. "Women are precious, like a pearl. They are supposed to be covered. They don't need to show the whole world their beauty. Especially you," He looked at me genuinely.Ngumiti ako. Wow, I didn't expect that. Then he smirked, "Ako lang dapat makakita ng katawan mo." He winked at me, then it was followed by my hand meeting his face. He groaned in pain.I scrunch my nose in disgust. "Eww, that's perverted, Mister. I'm doing it for myself. Dahil ayaw ko." I retorted."Then let us change Snow if that's what you want, Luke." Hannah piped in. "Oh brother, alam kong gusto mo rin makita to." Hannah winked at Luke, then dragged me out of the pool, with Emma tailing behind."Nooooo! My Snow! Her beaaaautyyyy!" Luke yelled in so much anguish like he's in a soap opera, his hands held out. There was nothing I could do but look at him in sympathy

Magkano po?" (How much?) Eion asked the tricycle driver. The driver mumbled the price. Nagbayad na rin si Eion at di na kinuha ang sukli nya. Grabe talaga pag nakangat angat. "Why did you even invite me here, you know I might disturb you..." I spoke up as we walked inside the market. Nakatsinelas lang ako at dress. I pulled my dress to avoid the mud. It was rainy last night kaya basa ang daan."You don't want to?""No, I love to. I love to annoy you.""Ikaw lang kasi gising...""I see." So I'm just his option. Tsk.Thirty minutes later we were running around the wet market, buying fish, crabs, and seafood. It looks like The idiot just tagged me along because he wants me to carry the stuff. Napasinghap ako, "Lagi ka bang bumibisita dito?" tanong ko, starting a conversation.He grunted in reply, busy picking vegetables. I studied him. To Mario, the old man, the staff of the resort, and even here, he's really different. I mean, aside from him speaking so fluently in another language, i

Halos mawalan ako ng malay nang matapos niyang ikuwento ang lahat. Nanlamig lang ang katawan ko."Ano? Sobrang yummy diba?"Para akong masusuka. Parang gusto kong isuka lahat para hindi maproseso ng aking banal na tiyan. Pero tumigil ako. Ayokong ma-satisfy siya. Sa halip, uminom na lang ako ng tubig para mahugasan lahat, umaasang malalabasan lang ito."Malinis ba? At...ligtas?" tanong ko."Sa tingin ko." Sinabi niya. "May ilang naiulat na mga kaso tungkol sa ilang kontaminadong pagkain, ang ilan ay ipinadala sa isang ospital at nagkakasakit ng typhoid fever, ang ilan ay hindi man lang nakaramdam ng kahit ano, kahit na hindi alam ang sanhi pagkatapos ng mga araw, at lamang..." Siya ay natigil nang husto para sa epekto. , "namatay."kinilig ako. Napangiti siya dito. Wow, ang daming niloloko ko.Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. Nagtaas siya ng kilay at nagpatuloy sa pagkain. The whole time I didn't bother looking at him as it sent shivers down my spine just watching him...eat that...so-calle
