BEATRIZ
Upon checking the time 12 am which for sure everybody here are sleeping already kaya binuhat ko si Caleb na natutulog at maingat kaming lumabas ng bahay. I asked Caitlin kasi kanina na ako naman ang katabi ni Caleb matulog
I have with me na rin yung documents ni Caleb and I took all our important stuffs
"Anak, sorry ha? I just have to do this" sabi ko habang nakahawak ako kay Caleb sa passenger seat, I'm driving kase
Nang makarating kami sa bahay where my home really is ay sakto rin ang pagdating ng sasakyan ni Jho? Anong oras na pero ngayon lang nakauwi
Iniwan ko muna si Caleb sa loob, nakaopen naman yung aircon ng car kaya comfortable siya. Jho went out from her car rin
"Ba't ka na naman nandito? Umuwi ka na" Jho's drunkenness
I put her arm around my shoulder and then held her waist.
"Nakauwi na nga eh"
Bigla namang may tumawag sa'kin
"Daddy? Why d...did you left me i...inside?" Caleb's crying habang nakalabas ulo niya sa window
He knows kase how to open the window
"No, anak. I'm here lang oh"
Habang nakaalalay ako kay Jho, I led the way to Caleb and opened the door for Caleb to get out
"Daddy, what happened to her? Who is she, daddy?" Caleb at kumapit siya sa shirt ko
"I'll tell you later ok? For now anak, help mo first si daddy para we can get inside the house now"
Sumunod naman si Caleb, tinuro ko sa kanya on how to open the gate and yung password ng bahay
Nakahiga ngayon si Jho sa couch nang gising, then Caleb and I are standing nang magkahawak kamay na pinagmamasdan si Jho
"What's this?" Jho
"Ok na, kumpleto na tayo"
"You're out of your mind, Bea" Jho
Caleb yawns
"Sleepy?"
Caleb nodded
Pinatulog ko si Caleb sa guest room muna, buti nalang at mabilis lang siya makatulog hehe. Mana sa'kin na antukin
When I got back to Jho, she was already asleep. Her head was tilted to the other side, so her neck was exposed, with a few strands of hair covering it. Parang I see something na iba kaya hinawi ko yung hair niya. And what I saw freaks me out
"Who the fuck gave you a hickey"
NOLAN
"Ok, dada's home. Great!"
Momma and Dada are sleeping on the couch in the living room. The couch is big, but Dada is big too. That's why they're like sardines in a small can, sleeping haha
"These lovebirds are sweet, sanaol"
I went closer to them and gently shook dada's shoulders
"Dadaaaa, dadddd wake up"
"Mmmm love paisa na kase please" dada's dreaming with his eyes closed
"Paisa? What? Dada wake uppp, it's Nolan" I said and continued shaking dada's shoulder
Dada slowly opened his eyes and was startled upon seeing me
