THE RETURN OF A CALDERON (COMPLETED)

#10

NIKKO'S POV

I woke at 8 am, di pa nako gusto mo bangon pero I have to kay naa koy meeting with Mrs. Salvador.

I suddenly stop moving when I realize something. Dali dali nga ni gawas ko sa akong kwarto.

“Dad!” I called him para maapsan sya. He's about to leave na for his work.

“Hey son, good morning.” he greeted.

“Good morning dad.. Anyways, was it Mr. Salvador or Mrs. Salvador?” ngutana nako.

Nilingi syas iyang orasan, “I gotta go. It's Mrs.” nisakay na sya sa iyang sakyanan ug nilakaw na.

Mosulod na unta kog balik sa balay pero nakuyawan ko kay naa si mama sa akong likod.

“Mom..” nag loading pako kadali, “G-Goodmorning.”

She smirk, “I heard from your cousin that you're hitting on Lucas's sister?”

Nag abot akong kilay, “How did- I mean no, of course not. Definitely not. I'm just being nice to her and Lucas asked me to check on her last night and I didn't mean to kiss her- I mean mom, you didn't..” I paused when I realize something.

Did I just said something..?

Nag tingsi na si mama sa akong atubangan, “Ayieee nag bibinata na among Nikko.. Uwuu so she's the one na?”

Nalukot akong nawng, “Mom! I told you I'm just being nice lang.”

Gisingkitan ko niyag mata, “Uh-huh being nice being nice nyenye. My son kissed a girl!” my mom shouted then ran inside our house.

Nangatol nalang kos akong ulo. Good thing wala si Papa. Pareho raba ni silag vibes, mag sakit akong ulo.

“You're Anthony Calderon's son?” A woman at her mid 70's asked. Halata nga tigulang na sya pero hawt gihapon kaayo.

Familiar sad iyang facial expression.

Naa nako diris office ni papa pero wala sya diri kay naa syay important meeting.

I shook my head, “Antonio's ma'am. I am Antonio Calderon's son.”

A woman nod. “I am Katana Salvador. Grand mother of Lucas and Luca.”

My beings froze.

“I think you know them. Especially my grandson, aren't you?”

Nitando kog hinay hinay.

“Nice! But we're here to talk about business.” she smile.

Nakahinga kog luag pag ingon niya nga business ang among storyahan.

“I still couldn't believe that she's your grandma.” ingon nako kay Lucas.

He chuckles, “What a small world. Well, is she not intimidating?”

Gihuna huna nako si Mrs. Katana Salvador, “Well at first she's intimidating pero the moment we talked about business, she's light. Pero legit akong kakulba pag ingon niya nga lola ninyo sya.”

Lucas laugh hard. Happy ka ghorl?

“My grandma Katana is not too scary.. Si lola Renouema nuon.”

Vuang nang libak rag lola oh.

“That's why if you're planning to stick by my sister's side, you have to be careful not to hurt her. Ipabarang jud kas akong lola” he then laugh.

Nalukot akong nawong pagkahinumdom kay Latina. Natulala ko kadali.

Niubo si Lucas to get my attention, “Brotha, I'm not against your relationship, kung naa man. Di lang ko gusto masakitan akong manghud.” sulti niya in a serious tone.

Yea- a kuya speaking. I feel him. Like Lucas, dili sad ko gusto masakitan akong pinsan nga si Merell coz I know how fragile girls can be.

I am raised by a woman, of course, and dad taught me to always be a gentleman. Sa ilaha ko nakatuon ana.

“She likes you.” Lucas suddenly utter.

Mura kog nabungol sa akong nadungog.

“Maong gusto nako mo layo kas iyaha kay dali ra kaayo ma attach si Luca sa imoha. Especially your gestures towards her. I never seen her cry over boys so once you did, if ever, di jud ko mo ila nga amigo ta.”

Wala ko kasabot sa akong bation. Naka focus akong huna huna sa pinaka unang gi sulti ni Lucas.

“She what?” gusto nako madungog ug tarong iyang gi sulti.

Lucas drank a bottle of water before answering, “She likes you since the day you asked her to marry her.”

My beings moved. Gikilig ko or unsa ba? Nayowo na ni ron. Lami iligid sa akong kama nya mag syagit syagit. Chr.

Lucas start teasing me, “Buang namula rang gago uy! Awie kelegs yarn?”

Niinom sad kog tubig para itago akong kilig. Pero atay init jud kaayo akong aping.

Shit! Ngaman gi kilig ko bisan nabal an ra nakong crush kong Latina? Shuta!

What does it mean?
