The following day, I wake up to the sound of hushed talking and stumble through to the living room. Blake and Eian are talking, but the topic of the conversation seems tense.
"...FÚCK! How much?!"
"Too soon to know for sure." sagot naman ni Eian. It sounds like something serious is going on!
"Find out, then---"
"Oh! Good morning, my darling wife." Blake pulls me into his lap, and I smile to him.
"Good morning, Mrs Miller." bati sa akin ni Eian kaya lalo akong napangiti.
"Good morning...Is, uhm, everything okay?" tanong ko saka humarap kay Blake.
"Not entirely." sagot nito.
"We had---"
"Eian. Weren't you about to tell the staff we'll our breakfast in here today." putol ni Blake sa sasabihin ni Eian.
Eian looks anxious as he leaves the room. Blake sigh and pulls me tighter against him.
"Anong nangyare?" tanong ko.
"One of my Casinos was robbed last night..My father has called an emergency family meeting." sabi nito.
"I'm sorry...Magkano---I mean...Was anyone hurt?" tanong ko sa kaniya.
"Yes." tipid nitong sabi.
"I'm guessing by that answer many díed." sabi ko sa kaniya
"What would you rather I gave you all the gory details?" seryoso niyang tanong.
"Na lahat sila namamatay dahil nagtatrabaho sila saakin?!" nakakunot nanaman nitong sabi kaya hinawakan ko agad ang pisngi nito.
"Hindi yon ang ibig kong sabihin, Blake. I just don't want you to lie to me!" sabi ko sa kaniya kaya huminga siya ng malalim.
"I'm not trying to, love...I just wish you didn't have to be caught up in all this." He said so I smiled to him.
"Well, you're a mobster, and I'm married to you. Spoiler alert? People in your line of work díe." Sabi ko at nagnod ito.
"True...Well...speaking of being my wife, you'll need to accompany me to the meeting." sabi nito at natigilan naman ako.
"It's about time you understood the family business." Sabi niya kaya ngumiti ako ng alangan.
A little while later, I arrived at the Miller headquarters, but Mike is nowhere to be seen. Mabuti naman at matatahimik ako ngayon.
"Ah, you're early, good! Wait–Alexandro, why is Isabella is here? I don't think your fiancee needs to hear this–"
"Actually, we got married last night. So Isabella is my wife now." seryosong sabi ni Blake.
Papa breaks into a wide grin and bring us both in for a tight, suffocating hug.
"CONGRATULATIONS! But tell me, son, why the rush?" nakangiti nitong tanong sa amin at halata ang saya sa mukha niya.
"Didn't you want a big wedding like your cousins? Your grandma's gonna be awful sore." natatawa nitong sabi na kinakunot ko ng noo ko dahil sa napansin ko. Did he forget what happened last night?
Tumingin ako kay Blake at kahit siya ay nagtataka sa ikinikilos ng ama nito.
"We didn't want to wait. Life is too short to have regrets." sabi ko nalang dito.
"Anyways...now that you've finally tied the knot, you'll want to start trying right away. This place needs more Millers running around!"
"Father." saway nito sa ama niya.
