Only Fools (Completed)

15

Sabay dumating si Julia and Thirdy sa opisina na ikinagulat ni Bea but she didn't do anything and stayed seated.

After a few, dumating ang Papa ni Thirdy. Nagulat si Bea to find the old man na na nakausap nya sa engagement party.

"Sino un?" She asked one of the employees.

"Dimo kilala? Papa ni Thirdy,big boss natin, si Bong Ravena."

"What a surprise, Papa, ano ginagawa mo dito?"

"Hinihintay ko resulta nung bidding. And I want to see this place one last time bago mo isarado at sumama ka sa akin."

"Hahaha Papa, of course, this place will not sink, what are you saying?"

"We'll see."

Thirdy led his father to his office, on their way, he introduced Bea.

"This is my fiancee, Bea."

"Hello." He simply said and extended his hands to her.

"We have met, nung engagement, sa garden."

"Okay." Matipid na sagot ni Thirdy sa kanya.

Anton's phone rang, Jules was standing beside him.

"Yes, Attorney? Teka, papunta na ako sa office ni Thirdy. Tungkol ba saan ito?"

The lawyer proceeded in telling Anton why he called.

Pagpasok ni Anton and Jules sa office ni Thirdy, they didn't know how to tell him.

"Ah Thirdy, ung lawyer kausap ko, kakatawag lang nya eh. We lost the bid."

Humalakhak si Thirdy. The people around him was very confused.

"Okay ka lang, Thirdy? Baka nasstress ka na kaya dimo naiintindihan sinasabi ko? We lost the bid, si Isaac Go ang nanalo."

"Si Isaac? Hahaha tingnan mo nga naman."

"Ano nangyayari sayo, Thirdy, natalo na tayo sa bid, masaya ka pa."

"Leila, pakitawag nga si Mr. Carpio," He shouted. 

"Sir, pinatawag nyo daw po ako." It was Mr. Carpio.

"Umupo muna kayo lahat, I really plan on loosing this auction. And Mr. Carpio, you're fired."

Everyone was surprised.

"Pakisabi na din kay Isaac na goodluck on this project because it looks like he won't be able to get another one after this dahil wala na pera ang kumpanya nya."

"Boss Thirdy - " Mr. Carpio was trying to explain.

"You can leave now and don't forget to tell Isaac kung ano ano mga sinabi ko, okay? This is how I play."

Nagulat lahat, nakangisi lang ang Papa ni Thirdy.

"Leila, tell everyone to go home, it's a free day today so we can all celebrate."

"Bro, planado mo lahat ito? Ang talino mo naman!"

"Ayaw nyo kasi ako pagkatiwalaan! Why would I let this company go bankrupt?"

"Pero si Isaac nibankrupt mo."

Everyone was happy. Nakatingin si Bea sa loob ng office while Thirdy looks back at her, smiling.

Thirdy explained what he planned, his father was pleased.

"So, I guess hindi ka na sasama sa akin."

"Papa, I'm good where I am."

"Okay, then, aalis na ako."

"Tito, manang mana talaga si Thirdy sa husay nyo sa business."

They all laughed.

Bea came up to him after all has left.

"Pwede na din ba ako umuwi?"

"Oo sige, uuwi na din naman lahat, magpahinga ka na lang din."

But her phone keeps ringing, she received a call from Deanna, then Thirdy's mom, and last was from Julia which caused her too much stress. Deanna was crying, it has to do with Bea daw, Mozzy was calling about the move, si Julia was pressuring her, hindi na nya kinaya that she automatically shut down and passed out. Thirdy was just there to catch her. Hinintay lang nya na magising si Bea and they went to the doctor.

Sa doctor's office, she was just advised rest, that it was just because of stress kaya sya nagsshutdown. Her doctor advised her to try swimming to relieve the stress.

"I'm usually okay naman po, Doctor. I just pass out and come back after awhile."

"You will do whatever the doctor says, Bea, wag matigas ang ulo."

"Dapat, doctor, si Thirdy po ang tinitingnan nyo, he is always stressed." Bea teased.

"But of course, everyone knows that." The doctor smiled. 

"Aalis na po kami, doctor." Thirdy said as he lead Bea out of the room.

Paglabas nagdidiskusyon na sila.

"Huwag ka nga makulit, ayaw ko nga mag swimming eh."

"Narinig mo sinabi ng doctor diba, you need it para ka umayos."

"No way!"

"Yes, you will."

"Ang kulit mo, Thirdy. Obviously, between the two of us mas ikaw ang stressed kaya ikaw na lang magswimming, wag mo na ako pakialaman, okay?"

"May agreement tayo na lagi kang susunod, kaya, you will swim kahit 30mins lang everyday sa amin."

"Ayoko nga! Hindi ako marunong lumangoy." Bea hesitantly revealed.

Napatingin sa kanya si Thirdy.

"Hindi ka marunong lumangoy? Bakit?"

"Eh sa hindi eh, requirement ba un para maging tao? Bakit ba ang kulit mo?"

"Kasi aalis tayo. Pupunta tayo sa isang resort ng client."

"Kelan?"

"In 2 days? At kasama natin si Julia and Sam. So, isipin mo, ang pangit diba if my future bride doesn't know how to swim."

"Ang stress naman, Lord, bakit?" sabi ni Bea. "Bakit ka ba dumating sa buhay ko?"

"Let me just remind you na ikaw ang dumating. Nananahimik ako and then you suddenly appeared."

Bea's phone rang and saw from her caller ID, it was Thirdy's mom, again. Pinakita nya ito kay Thirdy.

"Look, you're mom is calling again. Binabaan and nireject ko na nga ung tawag nya kanina." She said massaging her head.

"Baka mahal ka na ni Mama." Thirdy teased her.

"Mabuti na lang talaga at fake lang lahat ito! Sige na, pupuntahan ko na lang sya."

On her way, nasalubong na nya si Mozzy.

"Andito lang po kami, sayang naman kung sasagutin ko pa tawag nyo. Bakit po ba?" Bea asked her.

"Lilipat ka daw dito?"

"Syempre kay Julia nyo nabalitaan yan eh hindi naman totoo."

"Are you sure? Kasi baka nagugustuhan mo na ang anak ko."

"Haha hinding hindi po ung mangyayari, diko po type ang anak nyo, hindi sya ang tipo kong lalake."

Mozzy was surprised to hear that from Bea. Her son was one of the most eligible bachelors in the country and even sa ibang bansa, madami ang may gusto sa kanya. Bea explained to her kung paano nagsimula ung usapan that she will be moving in with him.

"So, ibig sabihin hindi totoo un? Siguraduhin mo lang."

"Kung ako lang po masusunod, Mrs. Ravena, gusto ko magbalikan na si Thirdy and Julia para mabalik na din sa normal ang buhay ko. Anyway,  alis po muna ako. Kung tatawag kayo at nireject ko ang tawag nyo, ibig sabihin, busy ako." Bea left her with a forced smile na ikina imbyerna naman ni Mozzy.
