The Billionaire's Obsession

Obsession 36

Zhan's POV

"What the hell?" I shouted in shock when the door of my room suddenly opened and the breathless Liam entered.

He looked at me while still panting.

Lumapit ito sa table at nagsalin ng tubig at mabilis iyong nilagok.
I waited until he calmed down.

"Where have you been and the hell happened to you?" I asked.

"Sorry sir. Bumalik kase ako sa cafe kung saan ako bumili ng meryenda natin kahapon." Kaya pala bigla nalang itong nawala kanina, tsk.

"Sir, may tatanungin lang ako kung hindi niyo mamasamain." He looked straightly at me. I furrowed my brows.

"What is it?"

"May nabuntis ba kayo dito?" He directly asked. I almost punched him because of what he asked.

"Fuck Liam, what are you trying to imply? Of course none. What the." I said defensively.

Wala akong maalalang may binuntis ako. Kung meron man akong gustong anakan ay walang iba kundi si Angel. Siya lang.

"Kanina kase, may nakita akong bata, sir. Kamukhang kamukha ninyo. Legit sir. Nagulat nga ako ng makita ko yung batang iyon, akala ko ay anak na tinatago mo. Sayang nga lang at hindi niya nasabi ang pangalan ng nanay niya, bigla kaseng dumating yung tatay nung bata." I rolled my eyes on him.

May tatay naman pala yung bata tapos sasabihin niyang baka anak ko yun dahil kamukha ko?

"Wala akong anak, Liam." I laughed, ano ba kaseng iniisip nito?

"Pero sir, kung makikita mo yung bata alam kong pati Ikaw ay magugulat." Pagpipilitan niya parin. I shook my head.

"Maybe you're tired Liam, alam mong hindi ako interesado sa ganyan." He simply nodded. Nagpa alam itong babalik sa kanyang kwarto.

We are in a hotel for now. Special treatment, they manager of this hotel knew me. Who would not?

Nilabas ko ang cellphone ko at pinindot ang gallery.

This is my peace, everytime I saw her picture, I will never lose hope that I will find her.

Where are you mahal ko? Hindi mo ba ako namimiss kagaya ng nararamdaman kong pangungulila sa'yo ngayon?

I will never stop looking for you mahal.

I wake up early today. I can't sleep, I don't know why. I have this feeling that I need to find something here, but I'm confused if what is it.

Napatayo ako at dumiretso sa shower.

Habang naliligo ako ay narinig ko ang katok mula sa pinto ng banyo.

He has the spare keys of this room.

"Sir, sasama ka sa cafe mamaya? Masarap ang mga pagkain don." Yes, I've tasted his orders and their food is really good.

"Can you go there yourself? You know what I want." Sabi ko habang sinasara yung shower. Kinuha ko yung towel at pinunasan ang aking buhok.

"Sumama nalang kayo sir nang malibang naman kayo." Wala akong balak magtagal dito sa Marinduque, I have so many things to do.

"You know I'm a busy person Liam. Besides, maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow we'll be going back in Manila." I used the towel to cover up myself then went out from the CR.

"Kahit isang oras lang tayo dun Sir okay na yon." He insist. I glared at him.

"Okay, fine. Just an hour." Ngumiti ito tsaka ay lumabas ng kwarto.

Nagkibit balikat nalang ako at nagdamit.

I let Liam drive. He keeps on talking until we reached the cafe he's reffering.

Lalabas na sana ako ng kotse ng tumunog ang phone ko. It's my cousin, Kara.

"Couz, where are you? Sabi ni tita wala ka ng Manila?" She immediately asked.

"I'm working couz. Ikaw ang wala ng Manila, nasaan ka? At sino yung batang nagsalita the last time we talked?" Akala niya nakalimutan ko na yun? Tsk.

Natahimik si Kara.

Liningon ko si Liam at inaantay ako sa labas.

"Kara listen to me, sabihin mo kung nasaan ka at sino ang batang iyon. Baka naman ay may binabahay ka na? Isusumbong talaga kita kay tita." Pananakot ko.

"Ano ba, ang OA neto, nandito ako sa Manila, okay? Tsaka Anong bata ang sinasabi mo, walang bata. Baka naman namali ka lang ng dinig." Babatukan ko talaga to pag nakita ko. "Ngayon sabihin mo kung nasaan ka?"

"Marinduque, may bagong project na ipapatayo dito. Satisfied?"

"Hell! You're with your secretary? Ano, si Liam?" Nagulat ako, parang nagpapanic ang kanyang boses.

"Hey relax, what's with you? And yes, I'm with him."

"Nasaan kayo ngayon?"

"Hmm, M'moire café, why ask, dear couz? Are you one of my secretary's stalker?"

I heard her cuss then without any words, she ended the call.

Kibit balikat akong lumabas ng kotse.

Sumunod ako kay Liam sa loob.

"Ako na order sir, hanap ka ng table natin." Tumango ako at pinalibot ang tingin sa paligid.

There. I choose the table near the glass wall where you can see the beauty outside this cafe.

After three minutes, nakita ko si Liam na may hawak na tray, kasabay niya ang isang babaeng maikli ang buhok na may hawak ding tray. Nang makalapit sila ay maayos nilang nilapag ang pagkain sa table.

Narinig kong nagpasalamat si Liam.

"Enjoy po mga sir." Nakangiting sabi ng babae tsaka ay tumalikod na.

Itong kasama ko naman ay nakatingin lang sa babae hanggang sa bumalik ito sa counter. Katabi ng isang matangkad na lalaki.

"Ang ganda niya talaga" sabi ko nga ba. Sa mga tingin palang niyang ganun.

Uminom ako ng latte. Nagpaalam si Liam na magbabanyo.

I silently cursed when I saw a familiar woman heading towards the exit, may kausap ito sa phone at kitang kita ko sa kanyang ekspresyon na kinakabahan siya.

I violently tapped my hands on the table and stood up which caught the attention of the people inside the cafe, including the woman I was now eyeing.

I saw how shock she is, she even dropped her phone. She nervously picked her phone up.

Wala akong sinayang na panahon at mabilis na lumapit sa kanya, she was about to run when I immediately caught her hands and pinned her on my car which just beside where we are standing.

"No escaping from this time, Mahal. Now that I found you, you will never leave my sight." She look horrify when she heard what I said.
