LCS 15: Light Perez (Completed)

Chapter 17

LIGHT AND CASTIEL were busy how to hide the construction of their small village, medyo nahirapan sila lalo na at sa likod lang ng bahay niya ito itatayo. He already did the rendering and his friends, as expected, liked it. Wala naman magagawa ang mga ito dahil wala rin siyang balak na magpalit.

They personally hired their workers that can help them build their safe haven, at para hindi 'yon makalabas at malaman ng iba. Their workers signed a contract, na wala silang pagsasabihan tungkol sa maliit na village na binubuo nila sa likod mismo ng bahay niya.

They're both exhausted from work, lalo na at pagkatapos ng isang project niya, sunod sunod na ang dumating sa kanya. Of course, Castiel was his chosen Engineer. Palagi naman.

"Inalipusta niyo talaga ako!" Reklamo na naman nito sa kanya.

Pumulot siya ng maliit na bato at binato 'yon kay Castiel. "Ulol! Malaki naman ang kinikita mo!" He shot back.

Tumawa lang si Castiel at pabiro na dumila sa kanya. "Kailangan ko ng maraming pera!" He exclaimed.

Nag thumbs up lang siya sa kaibigan. They really need a lot of money. Doble ang bayad nila sa mga construction workers nila dahil minamadali nila ang paggawa. Light was confident that they can hide it for a couple of months. Ayon ay dahil wala naman nakatira malapit sa bahay niya, but he can also tell that some of the villagers were getting curious with the loud noice coming from the back of his house.

May ibang dinadaanan ang mga truck na nagbababa ng mga materyales na kailangan nila, para hindi malaman ng kapatid niya na may ginagawa sa loob ng village ng mommy nila.

"Okay ka na ba talaga?" Castiel worriedly asked.

Nagkibit lang ng balikat si Light. Hindi siya sigurado. Ang alam lang niya nakinig siya sa advice ni Caleb. He's going to do whatever he wants now. He's going to reach his dream and plan the future without Vyel in it. Of course, it wasn't that easy.

She was his reason to reach success.

At doon siya nagkamali.

He forgot that he has his parents. His family. His friends. His self. Sapat na maging rason para mas lalo pa siyang magpursigi sa pagaaral noon, at trabaho ngayon.

"Pagkatapos nito ano na ang balak mo?" Castiel asked again as he threw a quick glance at the site.

"Edi tumanggap ng panibago. Magpasikat. Gusto ko maging katulad ni Papa, Castiel. My name written all over the news paper, magazine and even in any television shows." Light dreamily said.

Castiel chuckled softly, "Light Perez, pinaka tarantado sa lahat ng mga Architect! Nice, bud! Sagot ko na, pa billboard natin!" Pang-aalaska nito sa kanya.

He eyed his friend from head to toe, walang duda. Tarantado mula ulo hanggang paa. Light thought. Napailing na lang siya rito at iniwan ito nang hindi nagpapaalam.

He also need to visit another construction sites, as per his sister request, or should he say ordered. Hindi lang si Castiel ang nakakawawa, kasama rin siya doon.

Light slid himself inside his car and picked up his phone to check his email. He already changed his phone, si Xyria mismo ang pumili, she made sure that he'll no longer search her nor look at their pictures together. Even his Instagram account got deleted by his younger sister, Grex.

He checks his email and messages first. Kumunot nang bahagya ang noo niya nang makita na ang huling beses na nag-usap silang dalawa ni Vyrlle ay noong na hospital pa siya. She didn't text him like she used to, asking him to play with her.

Pinagsawalang bahala niya 'yon. Just like him, he's sure that she's busy with her studies. Lalo na at sigurado na nag aadjust pa ito sa bagong environment nito. College wasn't that easy. Kailangan mo talaga pigain ang lahat ng mayroon sa utak mo para lang makapasa at makakuha ng magandang grado.
