PROLOGUE

"DADDY!"

Drake sleepily groaned as he heard his son's voice echoed around his room. Nakapadapa siya sa kama, nakabaon ang mukha sa malambot na unan. Mabigat pa rin ang talukap ng mga mata niya dahil pasado alas tres na siya nang madaling araw nakatulog.

May guest na nagwala sa resort niya sa sobrang kalasingan. Kung hindi siya naawat ng mga empleyado niya ay baka napatulan niya na ang lasing dahil sa ginawang gulo sa Restaurant ng Villafuente Beach Resort.

His beach resort is one of the tourist spot in the Country, he doesn't like to ruin his good reputation and even the image of his resort just because of some bastard tourist. Its a big No to him.

He's really thankful last night because his employees and his securities were there to stop him. Nakainom din siya kagabi, kaya siguro sumabog din siya.

Naramdaman niya na bahagyang lumubog ang gilid na espasyo ng kama, tanda na umakyat ang apat na gulang na anak na lalaki.

Blake patted his back softly.

"Daddy, why are you still sleeping? It's six in the morning already." Reklamo ng anak.

"Give me more minutes to sleep, little champ. Daddy's still sleepy." Pakiusap niya pa.

"But I'll be late in school kapag natulog ka pa."

Napilitan siyang tumihaya upang maharap ang anak kahit antok na antok pa siya. Naka-indian seat ito habang nakatingin sa kanya. Ah, Blake is really his replica! Mabuti na lang at kahit saan anggulo niya ito tignan ay sarili niya pa rin ang nakikita niya. His mini version.

"It's Saturday, son. Sa Monday pa ang pasok mo."

"But teacher Lexza told us yesterday that today... we were going to play. Kasi nag-rain kahapon daddy kaya hindi kami nakapag-play." Blake cute lips curve down.

Drake frowned. "Who's teacher Lexza?"

Blake frowned at him, too, mocking him. "My new teacher."

"New?" Tumango ang anak. "Bakit hindi ko alam 'yan?"

"Kasi...kahapon lang po pumasok si teacher Lexza, pinalitan niya si teacher Bea." Para itong matanda na pinapaliwanagan siya, may hand gesture pang kasama.

"Why?"

"It's because teacher Bea took a leave." Bumaba ito ng kama niya. "I want to see teacher Lexza, daddy."

Drake stare at his son, confused. The name sounds familiar. "Teacher Lexza?"

"Yes!"

"What's her last name?"

Nag-isip saglit ang anak bago nakanguso na umiling. "I don't know. I will ask her later." Blake stare at him curiously. Gusto niyang paikutin ang mata dahil sa uri ng tingin nito ay parang may alam na hindi niya alam. His lips were in thin line. "Why were you asking?"

"Of course, I am your father. I should know everything that happens in your school." Tumango-tango ito, kinukumbinsi ang sarili.

Blake suddenly placed his small forefinger under his chin and stare at him again.

He groaned again. This little champ wouldn't stop until he gets up on bed. Ang isang braso niya ay ginawa niyang unan at nakipagtitigan din sa anak.

Blake eyes twinkled suddenly and nod his head absent-mindedly.

"She is the most beautiful teacher I've ever seen so far..." His son proudly said. "Get up dad, please? I will going to introduce you to my teacher."
