Chapter 48

BEATRIZ

"Can't she survive without that Nico with her?!"

Currently binabasa ni Caitlin yung conversation namin ni Jho sa phone ko

*Jho and Bea's conversation*

Wife: We are fine, don't worry walang nangyari sa'kin

Bea: But Carly told me na may nangyari sa'yo. Are you hiding something?

Wife: Wala

Bea: Tell me the truth. What happened with you?

Wife: Ok ako, I was actually with Nico earlier. He was there kaya safe ako

*End of conversation*

"Oh no nooo, Bei. Nasira na ata LCD ng phone mo. Hindi na gumagana" Cait

"Wala na yang silbi. Para san pa yan when she couldn't even talk to me para iupdate"

Cait's rubbing my back

JHOANA

Pinapakain ko si Nico ng dinner, I insisted naman

"What else do you want? Do you want oranges? Ipagbabalatan kita"

"Jho, chiiiill hehe. Ok na ako kaya umupo kana. Hindi mo ako kailangang pagsilbihan" Nico

"Nics, thank you ng soooobra sobra. Tell me how I can repay you"

"I'm full concerned. Wala yung bayad" Nico

Every time I'm with Nico, I always feel safe. I don't know how he does it, but it just happens.

Fast forward

THIRD PERSON

Everything is settled. Nakulong na si Engr. Zobel because police also found out na may iba pa siyang crime cases kaya nakulong na siya

Sinundo ni Nico si Nolan sa school kasi nagkataon na walang susundo sa kanya ngayong araw

"Tito Nico, I'm hungryyyy" Nolan

"I know, bud, I know" Nico chuckles

Kahit kasi hindi sabihin ni Nolan na gutom siya basta kasama niya ang tito Nico niya eh sure na laging busog si Nolan

"Yaaaay McDooooo!" Nolan from the backseat at inabot niya ang tito Nico niya para yakapin sa neck

"You're the best, tito Nicoooo" Nolan

Nico, on the other hand, can't hide his smile.

JHOANA

*Jho and Nico's video call*

Magkatabi sila Nico at Nolan kaya kita ko sila pareho sa screen ko

"Mc Nuggets ughhh, the beeeeesssttt" Nolan

"Sweetheart don't be messy, ok? Hay nako napapagod si Nico sa'yo eh"

"Who says I'm getting tired of this young man. Eh buddy ko 'to Jho eh" Nico chuckles

"Haay ikaw talaga, basta pagkatapos niyo diyan uwi agad"

"Ow, titooo my nugget fell to the flooooor" Nolan

"It's ok buddy, you still have a lot left oh" Nico
