All Chapters of CALL ME, KUYA! (English): Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Until I finish cleaning, and since it’s lunch break, I’ll put away my cleaning supplies for now. Before going home later, I’ll go to the hospital because I’ll get Papa’s heart test results when we have him checked up before I go home. Sunshine wasn’t at the table anymore and ate first with her friend from the other department. I have packed lunch, so I’ll just look for an empty office to eat, besides Sunshine and Mrs. Rival, I don’t know many people or they just don’t want to be with me, sometimes I want to mingle with my other colleagues, but what happened, sometimes I just see them rolling their eyes at me, well, I don’t want to pretend if I really have evidence. When I got out of the room where I put my cleaning supplies, I was surprised that Sir Izaak was already in front of me. He was in his pocket, staring at me. “Hi-hi sir… boss? Why? Did I not clean something? But when I went to your office, there was no mess, do you have other offices besides yours that I clean? And-”

I woke up with a start from the sofa. I looked around and saw that I was still in the office. “Are you alright, Miss Mahinhin?” I turned to the woman who spoke and saw Mrs. Rival sitting at her table, reading something. “Madam? It’s you. Sorry for falling asleep.” I apologized to her. I fell asleep after lunch, and what happened earlier was just a dream. All I remember is that I met Sir Izaak’s mom. It was just a dream. I suddenly got nervous because of our sudden meeting. It’s good that it was just a dream because I’m not ready yet, and I still need to know more about their missing child to convincingly be the Legaspi’s daughter. “It’s okay, hija, your boss, Sir Izaak, didn’t give any orders.” I breathed a sigh of relief because of what Madam Rival said. One of these days, I’ll also meet my new mom. That’s what Sir Izaak, I mean Kuya Izaak, said. Kuya… kuya… brother Unique, okay, brother Izaak. I went to the bathroom to freshen up, and at four o’clock, I’ll start my work

“Unique, I need a favor.” “What is it, Mama?” I asked while preparing to leave for the office. I put on makeup after Mama called me. Just lipstick and a little powder on my face so I won’t look haggard, even if I’m just a building cleaner. “These balut, we have an early order, just across the building where you work, buy it, according to the address given.” Mama said. Carrying my bag, I went out of my room and found Mama preparing the balut I’ll deliver. And Papa is in our store because someone bought something. “Their balut order is so early, Mama, it’s good that we still have some.” “Oh yeah, kid, they have a party later, so they ordered balut. I don’t even know how they found out we have it. The other day, someone also ordered a lot.” She said. “Really? Maybe they saw my post on my social media account, Mama, I put a caption to let our customers know that they can just go straight to our store if they want to order.” “Is that so? Social media can really help a l

"Calm down, hon." "I swear, that's our child, hon. Our child. Oh my God. Our child is back!" "Calm down, hon. Let's wait for our child to wake up. Don't panic, okay?" "Oh my, thank you, God. Finally, our child is back with us! My baby is so thin, did you eat properly? Where did you come from? Wake up, my love. Mommy misses you so much.” These are some of the noises I hear near me. "Mom? What happened?" I hear a familiar voice when the door opens. "My dear, Izaak, come here, come here. I have a surprise for you. Finally, your sibling is with us. Son! Look! Who's here?" I slowly open my eyes. Because I think they're talking about me. Izaak and I lock eyes. I bite my lower lip. "She's awake, call the doctor. Call the doctor, now! Hi baby. How are you, my baby Cherry? Do you still know me?” a woman greets me. She does resemble the woman in the photo my employer showed me and the woman in my dream. It's really her. She's beautiful. I look around to see who's around me. Am I in t

I thought Mom was still asleep when we arrived home. When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Sir Izaak. He insisted on coming along so he could personally explain things to my parents if they didn't allow me to go. So, I had no choice but to let him come, hoping he might help. I greeted Mom and Kuya did the same. I let him into the living room to talk and wait for me. “Is he your boyfriend, Unique?” Mom whispered, but my boss heard her. We both were surprised. I immediately shook my head at my mother. I put my arm around my mother and smiled at her. “No, Ma, he’s my—I mean, my boss. He’s the one I’m referring to when I said I’d be staying with him for a few months for a new job.” I said. “Can you handle it? Well, I trust you know how to take care of things.” Mom said, and Izaak glanced at me. “Ah—yes, Ma, I can definitely manage. I’m good at taking care of people. It’s sudden, that’s why I need to start now, and the pay is good, it’s a waste, Ma.” I whispered. This is
