Mafia Boss 3: My Bodyguard

Chapter 38

Mas lalo akong nalula dahil sa sobrang lawak na lupain ang pinasukan namin. The place has a lot of pine trees and different plants. May engrandeng fountain sa gitna at ang pinaka highlight sa buong lugar ay ang puti at salamin na mansion.

"You've got a massive home." I uttered. My eyes were still roaming around the area. Napansin ko rin na madaming mga kalalakihang nakasuot ng black suits, na nasa iba't ibang lugar.

What the heck, Kharlo Rozzi Kho is indeed a multi-billionaire restaurateur, businessman and what else I don't know about him?

"Welcome to my abode." He said while scratching the back of his neck. Nakanganga pa rin ako. Everything in here was just sumptuous!

"Huwag ka ngang umaktong ganyan, parang hindi ka nagmamay-ari ng ekta ektaryang taniman ng ubas ah. Makareact 'to."

Still, I can't stop but to be in awe. "That was my Dad's. I'm just... I'm... just--"

He gave me a peck on my lips. "Ako lang 'to. Come on..." And he pinched my cheek.

I sighed. Ganitong buhay ang tinalikuran niya para lang magtago. Bakit kaya?

Someone opened the doors for us. Pagkababa namin ay yumuko ang ilan sa mga naka-suits na nga lalaking may earpiece. They're like butlers or bodyguards of a VIP. Well, VIP nga naman talaga si Kharlo.

"Why do you have so many men?" Hindi ko maiwasang itanong.

"For security and protection." Hinila niya ako papalapit sa kanya and placed his arm on my waistnat sabaynkaming naglakad papalapit sa malaking double doors.

Again, someone opened it for us from the inside. Sumalubong agad sa akin ang isang yakap na ikinagulat ko.

"Oh my god! Finally!" She screamed. Sa sobrang gulat ko ay hindi ako makapagsalita. When she pulled from the hug doon ko lang nakita ang mukha niya.

"D-Doc Sam..." I said. She smiled widely.

"Yes. Tama nga, ikaw pala 'yong kaibigan ni Kyana. Nice to meet you again Chef Amira."

Awkward akong ngumiti. Noong nasa ospital si Kyara, nagkikita naman kami ni Doc, but nothing's special. Sasabihin niya lang kung anong result sa mga tests and then magpapasalamat lang ako at si Tita. But now, she's so bubbly at napaka-friendly.

Pumalakpak siya sa harap ko. "Ano ka ba, ako lang 'to." She laughed a little.

"Right. I'm sorry medyo nawiwindang lang ako sa mga nakikita ko." That's a fact, nasanay kaya akong makitang parang mahirap itong si Ozi. Nakakapanibago pa rin, nakakamangha pa rin. Who would have thought that I had the chance to go to Kharlo Rozzi's house here in the Philippines and meet his sister and... his mom. Again.

"Oh, Amira. Nagkita ulit tayo." She said while beaming at me. Ozi kissed her on her forehead.

Lumapit sa akin si Tita Rhian at niyakap ako. "Good evening po." I greeted.

"Kamusta ka?"

"Ayos lang naman po." I smiled. "Kamusta naman po ang mga bata?" I asked.

"Ayos lang naman sila hija, huwag kang mag-alala." I smiled again upon hearing that. "I guess, I have to leave them again for a while. Pero babalik naman ako."

"Maraming salamat po sa tulong ninyo."

"Ano ka ba, that's what I wanted during my stay here." Tumingin siya kay Ozi. And they seemed talking through their eyes.

Tumikhim si Ozi at hinila ulit ako palapit sa kanya. "Gutom na kami, Ma. Kumain na ba kayo?"

"Wow ayan pala ang natutunan mo sa pagtira sa Tondo, ang galing!" Samina said. "Bakit ka nga pala nagtago? Kung hindi dahil kay Dad hindi ko malalaman na nasa Pilipinas ka for how many months already. Seriously what's gotten into you?"
