Chapter 42: Chapter 42
I Love You
I know I hardly say it because
I feel you already know.
But everytime I do say it,
it comes from the heart
and it is true.
I maybe shy at sometimes
or scared to tell you how
I feel as if I just met you.
But because I don't
wanna seem needy even though
I really do need you.
But I will never be ashamed
to say it around my boys, my family,
or even in public.
Yes, I love you and
I'm proud of it too.
To know that I'm spending
the rest of my life with
some like you.
As our relationship grows
I learn to appreciate
you more as my love
for you grows with us too.
I will love you today
more than yesterday,
and I will love you for
ever as if it was the
first time I ever felt it.

"I'm sure it's her. Look at her face, hindi siya talaga gagawa ng mabuti." Inis na sabi ni Ashley habang nakatingin sa dalawang pictures na dala ni Hayley. "Ash, don't accuse her. We don't have any proof." Sabi ni Hayley. "Besides, ano reason niya to harm me?" Patuloy ni Hayley. "Inggit? Selos?" Sabi ni Lily. "At bakit naman eh boyfriend na nga niya si Toby." Sabi naman ni Virgie. "Guys, hindi ko sinasabi sa inyo ang problema ko to pinpoint others. I told you everything to inform you of the worst scenarios na pwedeng mangyari because you're with me." Sabi ni Hayley na inalala ang nangyari kila Ashley at Lily. Tahimik lang na nakaupo si Nico na katabi si Mario.
"Wait, wait, I think I remember her." Tumingin ang lahat kay Leandra na tinitingnan ang picture ni Brittany. "Yeah, it's her. You're out of town when she applied. She was bullied by other models na kasabay niya. They told her that she will not meet your standards kaya sabat naman ako na hindi ka ganoon tao but then, she ran away." Kwento ni Leandra. "See, it's really her." Muling bintang ni Ashley. "Ash,it is still not enough, okay? Stop accusing her." Sabi ni Hayley. "Bakit kaya nung nagbuhos si Lord ng kabaitan nasalo mo lahat?" Tanong ni Lily na nakatingin kay Hayley.
"Ikaw na ang bahala kay Hayley." Seryosong sabi ni Mario. "Huwag kayong mag-alala, hindi ko siya pababayaan." Sabi ni Nico. "Wala kaming ibang maaasahan kungdi ikaw." Sabi ni Mario bago ito tumayo. Tumango naman ang binata.
"Okay, tama na 'to. Let's start working. She must not ruin our days, okay?" Sabi ni Virgie at nauna ng lumabas pero bago tuluyang umalis ay lumapit muna kay Nico. "Please take care of her." Tumango naman si Nico. Sumunod naman si Leandra. "Alam ko naman na type na type mo si Hayley so huwag mo siyang hayaang masaktan ng bruhang 'yun ha?" Sabi naman ng bading. Nakatawang tumango si Nico. "We're sure na hindi siya mapapahamak hangga't kasama ka niya pero sigurado talaga ako na si Brittany 'yun." Umikot ang mata ni Hayley ng madinig na naman ang bintang ni Ashley. "Just keep her safe." Pahabol ni Lily bago hilahin palabas si Ashley.
IIling-iling si Hayley na lumapit sa binata. "Pasensiya ka na sa mga kaibigan ko. May mga sayad kasi." Nangiti si Nico sa sinabi ng dalaga. "Sobrang nag-aalala lang sila sa'yo." Sabi ni Nico. "Yeah and I'm really lucky to have them." Sabi ni Hayley. "So, let's talk about our daily routine." Sabi ni Nico na nagpakunot ng noo ni Hayley.
Pagpasok nila sa office ay nagtaka si Hayley ng wala na sa office niya ang mga gamit niya pati table. Ang nasa dating office niya ay mga computers at apat na tables kung saan naka-upo si Levi sa isa. "Ano'ng nangyari dito? Nasaan ang mga gamit ko?" Takang tanong ni Hayley. "You'll stay inside my office starting today. This place will be for Levi's use." Si Nico ang sumagot. "Pero..." Hindi natuloy ni Hayley ang sasabihin dahil nagsalita si Levi. "We will change some things in here but don't worry, babalik din sa dati ang lahat once na malaman na natin kung sino ang gustong manakit sa'yo unless..." Nakatingin si Levi kay Nico. "Kung papayag pa siya na mawala ka sa tabi niya." Nakangising sabi ni Levi.
"I'll fetch you back and forth from the condo up to here. Everytime you're going outside, I will be with you. You can't meet your clients from the outside instead, you'll meet them here." Biglang tumaas ang kilay ni Hayley. "Wait, wait. You knew na hindi lahat ng clients ay always available especially the busy ones. I need to meet them kung saan malapit sa work nila or even sa bahay nila." Sabi ni Hayley. "You will meet them here. If they can't do that then, forget it." Sabi ni Nico. "Ikukulong mo ako dito?" Inis na tanong ni Hayley. "If that will make you safe then, I will." Sagot ni Nico. Alam ni Levi kung saan mapupunta ang usapang ito kaya minabuti niya munang lumabas. Ayaw niyang madamay sa lover's quarrel ng dalawa.
"Look Nico, I don't think that would be fair for the clients and for me. I'm used to meet them outside. I'm used to talk to them kung saan namin napagkasunduan at yung bigla mo babaguhin will make them regret doing business with us." Sabi ni Hayley. "My decision is final. We will do business inside Kleid, period!" Sabi ni Nico. "Ewan ko sa'yo!" Galit na sabi ni Hayley sabay bukas ng pinto at malakas na sinara ito. Napabuntong-hininga naman si Nico.
