Angel slowly threw the sheet of paper in hers hand onto the table in front of hers father. The woman who had just turned twenty-five years old gently massaged her temples. Can not understand what hers father had just given her.
There. On the white paper, it was written clearly and neatly about her wedding plans with someone she didn't even know. Angel sighed softly before she turned hers gaze to hers father, who was now smiling as if he didn't have the slightest sense of guilt.
"Isn't that obvious?" Didn't answer the question. Hers father chose to ask back. Made Angel feel like her head was about to pop under the stress.
"For God's sake! I'm too young to get married, Dad! How can you do this to me?" said Angel, letting out a rough breath.
She really didn't understand what hers father was thinking. Just got home, suddenly she was surprised by the absurd letters from hers father.
Louis Cyn. Hers own father had the heart to marry herself off to someone she did not even know his origins, what kind of person he was and what his character was. Just yesterday hers father came home from a business trip in America. And now, that statement hers father brought with him almost made her scream in annoyance.
"Dad, don't tell me you're going to marry off this cute me to one of your business clients. Especially parents who already have many wives, you really don't love your daughter?" There was no other choice for Angel but to pull out the play as usual. With this, hers father would never force herself again.
Louis just rolled his eyes lazily when he saw his daughter's acting. This time he would not be as affected as before. The decision is unanimous. He believes in his choice, and the most important thing for him is the future for his only child, Angelina.
"Angel, believe me. He is indeed one of my business clients, but he is not married. He is also very young to hold the position of a CEO of a company. I have seen his abilities, he is very talented and handsome too. I'm sure you won't be able to resist his charm when you meet him later," replied Louis enthusiastically. This time he really wanted him daughter to obey him request.
Meanwhile, Angel let out a tired sigh.
"Is that the main reason for Daddy to marry me to him?" Angel sneered softly.
But Louis quickly shook his head. Him daughter really thought that he was going to dump herself on a foreign man.
"That is not true! There are many reasons for more than this. He really suits you, I really hope to see you married before I close my eyes forever."
Hearing what her father had just said, couldn't help but make Angel widen her eyes.
"Why Daddy said like that?" said Angel. Whenever hers father said something like that, she couldn't help but feel sad. Even though she knew that it was one of hers father's tricks to persuade her.
"I hope you can consider this marriage," said hers father later. Which only Angel replied with a deep sigh.
"Dad, I just want to make my own choices."
Hearing the answer from Angel that seemed a little shaky, making Louis secretly smile.
"Wait a minute, I have a photo when I was with him. You can see for yourself, he's really handsome."
Louis reached into his own jacket pocket to pull out his cell phone. And Angel who saw hers father so excited, frowned as thin as possible.
"I have to go back to my room," said Angel as she got up from hers seat.
"Wait, Angel! You really don't want to see his face?" Louis raised his voice when he saw Angel had walked into the room.
"Not!" replied Angel before she really tightly closed the door of hers room.
Louis just shook his head slowly to see Angel's behavior. His gaze then shifted to his cellphone, which now featured portraits of two men with very different heights and ages.
He can see himself smiling in the portrait, while the man with black hair with a few blonde strands next to it just has a flat expression.
Louis chuckled softly when he saw the man he dreamed of to be his son-in-law.
"How handsome he is." Louis muttered.
The middle-aged man remembered his conversation with someone who was in the portrait.He is Lester, the first child of the Hyden family in the United States. At a very young age, he is already in control of the business and continues the company that was previously run by his father.
A terrible tragedy that befell Lester's parents that killed both of them, making him inevitably have to take over all the work that his father had previously done.
Previously, some of the business clients who had joined the Hyden company wanted to break away. They did not really believe in Lester's abilities, who had never learned anything about the world of business. They were afraid that if the slightest mistake made by Lester would affect them. To be precise, they were afraid of going bankrupt.
However, some of his father's business client concerns were silenced by Lester. Just a few months into the business world, he has made big changes and proved if he is able to do this job, he can lead the company that his father left.
When he first saw him, Louis was very confident in the abilities possessed by his best friend's son. The radiance of Lester's sharp eyes and flat facial expression were not far from his best friend. He really fully supports Lester.
And what was most surprising to him was the words that came out of Lester's lips that he had never imagined before.
"I want to marry your daughter, Angelina Cyn."

I was absentmindedly serving soup for the kids when Clara bumped my shoulder.“Ano at natulala ka diyan, Hermina. Naghihintay ang paslit sa iyong salok.” nangingiti nitong nguso sa batang nag-aabang sa soup na ilalagay ko sa kanyang bowl.“Paumanhin, bata.” ngiti ko“Salamat po, madre.” ngiti rin nito pabalik.Huminga ako ng malalim at sinalukan din ang sumunod na bata. Nandito kami sa panibagong bahay-ampunan na aming sinisilbihan.Mas malawak at mas marami ang mga batang tinutulungan namin kaysa sa bahay-ampunan noon nila Crisanto.Crisanto.I sighed again. Noong araw na iyon na nag-breakdown ako sa kanya, hindi na ako nagsalita after kong pilit tanggapin na wala talagang sulat. Nag-sorry pa ako sa kanya pagkatapos ay niyaya ko na si Lagring na umuwi dahil mag-gagabi na rin at hindi kami pwedeng abutin ng dilim sa daan sabi ng Donya.Pero masamang-masama ang loob ko. Umiyak ako buong gabi. Kinukwestyon kung anong ginagawa ko rito at bakit grabeng paglalaro ang ginagawa sa akin. Wala
“Paano mo siya nakilala?”“Kaibigan ko. Nakalimutan ko nalang ang bahay niya noong umalis ako rito.”Kumamot ito sa ulo. “Magkaibigan pala kayo.”Ngumiti si Trinidad sa akin. “Wala atang naikukwento si Sanding sa atin,” siko nito kay Crisanto.Anong sinisiko-siko mo dyan! Nakikisabat di naman kasali. Naku! Vinta, napaka-bitchesa mo. Wala namang ginagawang masama ‘yung tao!“Sasamahan ko na kayo.”“Kasama ko na si Lagring. Kaya sabihin mo nalang sa amin ang lugar.”Napatitig silang tatlo sa akin and I realized na medyo harsh ‘yung tono ko. I cleared my throat and smiled shyly.“I mean, ayoko ng makaabala sa ginagawa niyo.”Tuluyang ibinaba ni Crisanto ang hawak na panungkit.“Tapos na rin kami. Ihahatid ko nalang muna si Trinidad sa kanilang tahanan pagkatapos ay tutulak na tayo.”“H-hindi ba ako p-pwedeng sumama?” mahinang sabi ni Trinidad.“Naging mahaba na ang ating araw. Magpahinga ka na lamang muna. Sandali lang siguro kami roon.”“Pwede naman kasing kami nalang ni Lagring.”I can
“Saan ba talaga ang tungo natin, senyorita?”Huminga ako ng malalim at mas lalong tumitig sa malaking salamin sa aking harapan habang hinihigpitan ni Lagring ang mga tali sa likod ng aking damit.“May kilala ka bang Sanding?”Kita kong napatigil ito at kumunot ang noo. “Sanding, senyorita?”“Oo. Hindi ko alam ang apelyido niya eh. Pero pinsan siya ni Crisanto.”Napatingin ito sa akin. “Magkaibigan ba kayo ni Crisanto, senyorita?”“Bakit?”Nakibit-balikat ito at muling bumalik sa ginagawa. “Kasi nag-uusap kayo noong nanuod tayo sa kanilang pagtatanghal at ngayon ay kilala mo ang kanyang pinsan.”“May itatanong lang ako.”“Ano iyon, senyorita?”Tumaas ang gilid ng aking labi sa kanyang ka-chismosahan. “Marites ka din pala.”“Lagring ang aking ngalan, senyorita?” patanong pa nitong sagot.Umiling nalang ako at humarap sa kanya. “Ano? Kilala mo ba siya at kung saan siya nakatira?”“Hindi, senyorita.” titig nito sa akin. “Ngunit pupwede tayong pumunta kay Crisanto upang itanong sa kanya.”
“Sa sabado na ang iyong alis, Hermina?”Tumango ako at tinusok ang suman na nasa harap ko. It’s breakfast at nasanay na rin akong kumain ng mga ganito. Masarap naman pala sila. Lalo na kapag authentic ang pagkakagawa.Lumipas ang tatlong araw simula noong sa plaza. Sa sabado ay nagpadala ng liham ang superiora at kailangan ko na raw bumalik sa simbahan. Pwede bang magresign na? I really can’t do this. Hindi naman ako matutulungan ng pagiging madre ko para makaalis dito. Si Crisanto ang kailangan ko para makabalik na ako sa sariling buhay ko.Tumingin ako sa mga magulang ko sa harapan. Ang Don ay nagbabasa ng dyaryo habang ang Donya ay patingin-tingin sa akin habang umiinom ng tsaa.“Aalis na ako sa pag-mamadre, mama.”Pareho silang napatigil. Tinarayan agad ako ng Donya.“At sa tingin mo ay papayag ako?” kalmado nitong sabi.“Buo na ang pasya ko, mama.”“Wala kang magagawa, Hermina. Ako ang magdedesisyon para sa’yo.”“Adela..” pigil ng aking ama.My lips form into a thin line. “I don’
What the fuck happened to me?!Nagsara ang kurtina at para akong natauhan. Nilingon ko ang paligid at nakita ko ang tingin sakin ng lahat. As in!“Senyorita!”Tumikhim ako at yumuko. Hinayaan kong kuhanin ako ni Lagring. Nagpaumanhin siya sa mga nahawi kong tao. Gusto kong pukpukin ang ulo ko! Am I dumb?“Pasensiya na po.” nakatungong hingi ko ng tawad sa mga tao.Dinig ko ang pagbubulungan ng ilang mga dalaga sa paligid kaya tignan ko sila isa-isa. Nagtatakip naman sila ng mga pamaypay pag nadadaanan sila ng tingin ko.“Anong nangyari, senyorita?”Nasa pinaka gilid na kami at kanya-kanyang business na ulit ang mga tao. Mariin akong pumikit at pekeng ngumiti kay Lagring.“N-nadala lang ako. Ang galing kasi nila e.”Ngumiti ito at malambing na tumingin sa stage na ngayon ay may ibang mga karakter na sa taas.“Naku! Talagang napakahusay ng grupo na iyan. Sila palagi ang nagtatanghal tuwing pyesta. Di ka naman kasi mahilig manuod ng ganito noon, senyorita. Kaya siguro’y namangha ka.”Tum
Seriously? May kapatid si Hermina? Akala ko only child lang siya kaya medyo baliw ang nanay niya.“Sino pong kapatid?”Kunot noo itong tumingin sa akin. Ngunit tumango din kalaunan.“Naiintindihan kong masyado ka pang bata noon upang maalala.” ngumiti ito sa kawalan. “Si Malaya.”Tumahimik lang ako para pakinggan ang mga susunod niyang sasabihin.“Ilang beses ko na itong na-istorya sa iyo, ngunit hindi pa rin nawawaglit ang bawat detalye sa aking isipan.”Ngumiti ako sa kanya. “Ikuwento niyo po ulit. Hindi rin naman po akong nagsasawang pakinggan.”Tumingin ito sa akin ng may malalambot na ekspresyon.“Inampon namin ang iyong ate Malaya sa isang malayong pamilya ng iyong ina. Dahil akala namin ay hindi na kami mabibiyayaan ng supling. Halos walong taon na rin kaming kasal at nagsasama noon kaya’t bigong-bigo kami na ang tagal kaming bigyan ng anak.”“Tatlong taon palang si Malaya noong mapunta siya sa amin ng iyong mama. Todo ang aming alaga at pagbabantay sa kanya. Hanggang sa mga sa
