“What are you and your father talking about?” Samantha asked.“Ah, nothing, my love. Dad was just asking when we’re going to the U.S. He said he’s really excited to finally see our child,” Gabriel replied.“Really, my love? I’m so thankful that your father accepted our child,” said Samantha.“Not only did he accept our child—he also accepted you, my love,” Gabriel said as he embraced her.“Thank you, my love,” she answered sweetly.“Where’s Lyka? We should tell her early that we’re going to America next week so that she can stay here with Mother and Father. I’ve already booked the tickets for the three of us—we’ll be leaving next week,” Gabriel said.“Are you sure, my love? Are your parents really going to accept us?” Samantha asked to make sure.“Of course, my love. That’s why Dad keeps calling me—he keeps asking when we’re coming to the U.S. I haven’t told Tintin yet because I want to surprise her. Let’s go tell Lyka now so she’ll know our plans, and so Mother and Father will h

“Lyca, we’re leaving now and you’ll be the one in charge here, okay? You’ll take care of my mother and father since you’re the only one who’ll be left in the house, so I’m relying on you to stay with them here. Everything you want to eat is already in the refrigerator, and there’s an envelope on the table—that’s your money, your salary, and the budget you’ll use while we’re gone,” Samantha reminded her.“Yes, ma’am. Thank you very much,” Lyka replied.“And I also gave Manong his salary. So Lyka, if you want to go out, it’s fine with me as long as you inform Manong when you’ll be back. Christina and I will also call here to check on your situation because my parents are here, so I need to know how things are going,” Samantha explained.“Yes, ma’am. I’ll take care of everything,” she replied.“Thank you so much, Lyka. You’re very kind. I really didn’t make a mistake choosing you,” Samantha said.“It’s nothing, ma’am. It’s all fine with me. Ma’am, you might be late for your flight,” Lyka

“ano ba kayo syempre naman invited kayo lahat, okay... 'di ba mahal ko?" sabi nito sa mga kaibigan. “oo mahal ko," sagot ni Samantha. Hindi pa rin maiwasan ni Samantha ang tumingin sa ina ni Gabriel habang ito rin ay nakatingin sa kanya pero nagtataas ito ng kilay sa kanya napayuko na lang si Samantha at gustong gusto ng pumasok sa loob ng bahay nila ang nasa isip nito naawa siya sa anak niya ayaw niyang mapahiya ang anak niya sa maraming tao kahit tinataasan pa siya ng kilay ng lola nito ay kailangan na magpatuloy parin ito sa salo-salo upang hindi mapahiya ang pamilya ni Gabriel. “apo halika dito," tawag ng lolo ni Christina. “ano po iyon lolo?" tanong ng apo. “nakikita mo ba ang lahat ng ito Apo?" tanong ng kanyang lolo. “Sa'yo ito lahat mapupunta," sabi ng kanyang lolo. “lolo ayaw po ba ni lola kay mama bakit po sa tuwing pinapalapit niyo ako ay si mama ayaw niyo naman po siyang kausapin," tanong ni Christina sa kanyang lolo. “ah... hindi naman sa ganun apo

Gabriel finally decided that they would move and return to his old house, the one he used to live in before. Jennifer had no idea that they had already moved into Gabriel’s house.“So Sir Gabriel’s house is really big, ma’am,” Lyka said.“Yes, Kyla,” Samantha replied.As far as I know, you used to work for them before, Lyka thought to herself.“My love, maybe we should just go back to the house. We were fine living there,” Samantha said.“Yes, my love, we were fine there and there was no problem. I just want us to live here now. This house is not under her name anyway. You will be Mrs. Bustamante, so you have nothing to worry about. She can’t do anything. Don’t be afraid, I will handle everything,” Gabriel said.“Did we used to live here before, Mom?” Christina asked.“Yes, my child,” Samantha answered.“Weren’t you working here before, Mom? And now this has become our home,” Christina said.“My child, I’m sorry, Lyka,” Samantha said to her.“It’s okay, ma’am. I didn’t really understa

“Where are you now, William?” Jennifer asked.“I’m on my way, Ma’am,” he replied.“Good. I’ll wait for you here at the house. It’s perfect timing because Gabriel isn’t here,” Jennifer said.William soon arrived at the house. When he saw Samantha up close, he was stunned by her beauty.“Good morning, Ma’am,” he greeted Jennifer politely, pretending.“Are you the one applying as a helper?” Jennifer asked, pretending as well.“Yes, Ma’am, that’s me,” he answered, his eyes unconsciously fixed on Samantha.“May I see your resume?” Jennifer asked.“Yes, Ma’am. Here it is,” he said as he handed her a folder.Samantha watched them with confusion. She wondered why Jennifer hired a helper when they already had many servants.“Does Gabriel already know that you hired a helper?” Samantha asked.“And why should I ask his permission? This is our house,” Jennifer sneered. “You’re the one who should ask for permission because you have no place in this house.”Samantha chose to walk away instead of ar
