Lahat ng Kabanata ng Forgotten Night With My Boss: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Today is their last day in Barcelona. Sobrang abala nila sa trabaho ngunit hindi pa rin sila nawawalan ng oras para pumasyal kasama ang kambal. The twins have grown closer to Ziancio, and Divine is appreciating how kind and loving he is to them. Palagi itong pagod mula sa business meetings pero palagi pa rin itong nakikipaglaro sa mga bata. The more she looks at it, the more she sees him as a good father to the children.Kasalukuyan siyang nag-aarrange ng mga importanteng papeles nang pumasok si Ziancio sa hotel room. Halata na bagong ligo pa lang ito at may hawak na tasa ng kape."Good morning, Divine. What do you want for breakfast?" bungad nito nang may matamis na ngiti. "Coffee or me?"Ipinaikot niya ang mga mata at tumawa. "Coffee makes me awake, while you say cheesy lines that make me feel sleepy. So, I choose the coffee."It was just a joke she always tells around as his secretary. Hindi na bago sa kanila ang ganoong klaseng asaran kahit noong nasa opisina pa sila dahil palagi

"Ayan na si Miss Hermona!"All eyes immediately turned to Divine when she stepped into the office. Ramdam niya ang tingin ng mga kasamahan pero nagpanggap siyang walang napapansin at dumeretso sa puwesto niya. Nang makaupo siya sa swivel chair, agad siyang pinaligiran ni Anna at ng iba pa para salubungin siya ng maraming katanungan."Girl! Long time no see! Super na-miss kita Kamusta ang Barcelona?" nasasabik na tanong nito."Ang OA mo. Isang linggo lang kami doon." natatawa siyang umiling-iling nang lingunin ang mga ito. "Everything went smoothly and the partnership was successful. I got to do some sightseeing too, napakaganda ng lugar na 'yon.""Sana all na lang talaga!" sabay-sabay nilang saad kaya napangiti siya.She placed her bag on the table and took out the keychains she bought from Barcelona. Mayroon kasi siyang nadaanan na souvenir shop kaya naisipan niyang bilhan ang mga katrabaho. "Oh heto, mga souvenir na binili ko para sa inyo. Alam ko namang magtatampo kayo kung wala a

"Ziancio... nawawala ang mga anak natin!"Namilog ang mga mata ni Ziancio dahil sa labis na gulat. He immediately took his phone out from his pocket and dialed the driver's number who is supposed to take the kids to the place. Ilang ring lang ay sinagot na ni manong ang tawag."Manong, where the hell is Aurora and Zaurus?!"Divine wasn't able to hear Manong's response but she could already tell what he heard base on his expression. His face paled, his jaw clenched, and a flicker of sheer fear and panic flashed in his eyes."Fvck!" he shouted, slamming his hand on the table in frustration.Mas lalong namutla si Divine. Tears streamed down her cheeks, and her body trembled as she confirmed her worst fear—something terrible had happened to Aurora and Zaurus while they were on their way."Divine." Ziancio grasped her trembling hands firmly. "Don't worry. I'll make sure we find them. I won't let anyone harm our kids."But his words did little to ease the heavy weight pressing on her chest.

"Maayos na po ang lagay ng bata. He will soon wake up after a long rest."Agad na naglaho ang bigat sa dibdib ni Divine nang marinig ang sinabi ng nurse. Napangiti siya, saka huminga nang malalim, ramdam ang matinding ginhawa. Pumikit siya sandali at taimtim na nagpasalamat sa Diyos dahil maayos na ang kalagayan ng anak niya."Maraming salamat, nurse."Tumango ang nurse bago siya pinaalalahanan tungkol sa mga dapat at hindi dapat gawin kapag nagising na ang bata. Matapos no’n, tahimik itong lumabas ng silid.Pagkaalis nito, muling ibinaling ni Divine ang tingin sa anak niyang nananatiling walang malay. Ziancio payed for a very wide and quiet private room so Zaurus would be comfortable. Natutuwa siyang makita ang effort na binibigay ng nobyo sa anak nila.And speaking of Ziancio, hindi niya na ito muli pang nakita simula nang kuhanan ito ng dugo. She assumed that he has something important to do she didn't question him about it. Marami pa kasi itong kailangan asikasuhin sa opisina, at

The rustling of tape being pulled and the thud of boxes filled the quiet apartment. Sunlight streamed through the open windows, making the dust particles dance in the air like glittering motes. It was a strange mix of warmth and melancholy, one Divine wasn't quite sure how to name. Ilang taon nilang tinirhan ang apartment na ito at dito niya napalaki ang kambal, kaya may panghihinayang sa dibdib niya habang iniiwan nila ang lugar. If she only had a choice, mas gugustuhin niyang manatili rito. Ito ang nakasanayan nilang tahanan, saksi sa bawat hirap, saya, lungkot, at tuwa ng kanilang buhay. But she knew—life required changes. At matapos ang insidente, hindi na niya maipagkakatiwala ang kaligtasan ng kanyang mga anak. Their safety had to come first. At isa pa, basta't kung nasaan ang kambal, doon ang tahanan niya. She turned away from the half-sealed box she was taping and saw Zaurus staring quietly out the window, clutching his favorite stuffed toy. "Mommy, talaga po bang lilipat
