All Chapters of Hey you, be my father! : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Devan’s POV:   Napasandal ako sa pagkaka-upo at napatingin sa mga papeles na nakapile sa desk. There’s still too much work to do. Whenever I try to relax and close my eyelids for even just a moment, that woman’s smiling face comes inside my head which is not helping, she’s a total piece of distraction. I can’t focus on my work at all for days now. D*mn it! I should’ve finished my work by now as usual, but d*mn! Wherever I look I always see her face! Am I experiencing hallucinations due to excessive work? I stopped everything and massaged my temples, feeling a bit of a headache. “Sir.” Assistant Lee called after he knocked outside. “What is it?” Tanong ko at napatingin sa kaniya. “The result is out.” Sabi niya at ipinakita sa akin ang isang folder na may nakatatak na DNA Test. I flinched hard after seeing it, the thing that was bothering for a couple of days now. Finally! The paternity test! Seryoso kong kinuha iyon sa pagkakahawak

“Mommy!” Sigaw ng isang bata sa loob. Napatingin ako sa kaniya na masayang lumapit sa amin. Napatingin siya sa babaeng kinakarga ko at nagulat sa nakita. “Anong nangyari?! Binagyo ba si Mommy?!” Gulat na sigaw niya habang nanlalaki ang mga matang tinuturo si Adel na mahimbing pa ring natutulog sa bisig ko. “S-sir, please come in.” Biglang sabat ni Rose. I have known her because she once attended social gatherings for businessmen. She’s an intelligent woman who was once included in my list of candidates for a political marriage. But of course, that was all in the past. I could’ve chosen her if that night didn’t happen since I didn’t really care about marriage at that time. But it's not the case now. I now have a woman I am seeking myself. Not just for the purpose of business, but for something else. Something much more invaluable than business. The problem is that I am still currently searching for her. Pumasok ako sa loob at nilagay si Adel sa

“Saan ba kasi tayo pupunta, Mommy?” Tanong niya habang sinusuotan ko siya ng damit. Umalis na si bulaklak kanina pagkatapos naming kumain. May gagawin pa daw kasi ‘yon. Nakakahiya naman kung ako pa magiging dahilan para hindi niya matapos tapos ang mga gawain niya. I know she’s reall busy that’s why I only ask for her help when really needed. “May ipapakilala ako sayo, baby. That person is important to me kaya dapat mag-ayos ka at magpapogi.” Sagot ko at sinuklayan na siya ng buhok niyang magulo. “Talaga? Sino?” Tanong niya. Nginitian ko lang siya bilang sagot. “You’ll meet her soon, darling.” I kissed his forehead and made him look at his reflection in the mirror. “Ano sa tingin mo? Ayos ba?” Tanong ko sa kaniya. He gave me a toothy grin before nodding twice. Tumayo na ako at kinarga siya bago umalis ng apartment. Ipinasok ko siya sa kotse at nagdrive na ako. Lumipas ang ilang minuto kong pagdadrive ay nakarating din kami sa patutunguhan namin. We’re

Lumabas na ako sa room at tiningnan ang doktor na hanggang ngayon ay naghihintay sa labas. “What happened?” Tanong ko sa kaniya nang deretso kaya napatingala siya sa akin na parang pinagpapawisan. I furrowed my brows in every passing second he didn’t replied. “His condition will keep on worsening by the day. Memories deteriorating that’s enabling him to remember most of the people he knew. If this continues he may lose all of his memories.“ Litanya niya kaya napatango ako. I’m guessing the reason why they were kicked out just earlier. Did the old man temporarily forget them? I’m not that surprised since this already kept on happening this past week. “Not only that, he may also lose his bodily consciousness. Ang mas matindi sa lahat ay maaari niyang makalimutang huminga.” Problemadong sagot niya sa akin. I gritted my teeth so hard and my emotions went turbulent. I coldly glared at him after I massaged my forehead in a problematic manner. “Can’t

Lunch na kaya lumabas na ang mga kateam ko dahil sa labas daw sila kakain. Inanyayahan nila akong kumain kasama sila pero hindi ako pumayag kasi may dala naman akong baon. Masasayang kung sa labas ako kakain.Nang natapos na akong kumain ay hinugot ko na ang cellphone ko. Sinigurado ko muna na walang hidden camera sa room at bugging devices na pweding makinig sakin.I dialed the number and it rang several times before it was picked up.“Good day, Mr. Suave.” Maligayang pagbabati ko.“You called?!” Agad na sabi niya sa kabilang linya.“Ahh oo. Parang kailangan ko na kasing makipagkita sayo eh. Ayaw mo non? Makakausap mo ako ng personalan?” Sabi ko at napatawa. Narinig ko namang napamura siya ng mahina sa mga pinagsasabi ko.“Awe, don’t be so grumpy. Baka mas lumala ang pagkahaggard mo niyan. Malaki pa naman ang eyebags mo. Parang kulang ka yata sa tulog?” Pang-aasar ko sa kaniya.&l
