Chapter 8
CHAPTER 13 • (PART 1)
We have arrived at Uno"s Auntie Feli"s house. The first time I stepped inside, I immediately felt nervous. I rolled my eyes. Everything shouts with wealth. The wealth they have!
"Close your mouth. You're embarrassing," he scolded me. I didn't notice that I was gaping. I immediately closed my mouth and faced. I should act elegant.
A fairly old woman appeared in front of me. It turned its back on us so he hadn't noticed us yet. Uno, who was also looking at me, turned to look at me when I felt him hold my hand firmly and squeeze it. He just smiled at me and averted his eyes. I looked at the hands we held. There seemed to be some kind of electricity I felt from there.
"Aunt Feli," he called to the woman. It looked at us and smiled sweetly. It's beautiful even when you're old. I also notice a slight resemblance of them to sir Martin. "Oh, you're already here. How's life?" He approached Uno and kissed him.
"Still breathing auntie." This answer made her auntie smile. They seemed close to each other.
"Stop joking will you? Is she?" Her auntie looked at me head to foot. It's a bit weird so I just bowed down. Grabe naman kasi maka head to foot eh. He seemed to be examining my soul as well.
"Hi madam, I'm Jessica Valdez." I"m embarrassed to introduce myself. Uno's auntie smiled at me and scolded me as well.
"Oh geez don't call me madam. Just call me Auntie. You're not a maid here, are you?" I smiled wryly because of what he said. I felt something when she spoke that. It's like she's making me look like I'm just a maid. "Right, auntie." I speak. I just ignored what he said earlier. "Where's Frizzy?" Singit ni Uno. "Miss me dear?" I heard someone speak. I searched for it and saw a woman with brown and wavy hair. She was wearing a fitted maroon dress. I turned to Uno and saw that the mixture on his face was sour. I could read the remorse in her expression. I looked again at the woman who hurried down the stairs and immediately approached Uno. He gave her a hug, which surprised her as well as I was surprised. Uno released his grip on my hand and gently pushed Frizzy away from him. "Gosh it's been a while Uno! I missed you." He was ready to hug Uno again but he just avoided him. "Stop it." Uno's complaint from hugging him. The female caterpillar finally stopped. Right! He looks like a caterpillar, if I can hold on, there will be no tomorrow. "You're still rude." Conyong says so. Yuck! The witch is obviously cute. Wait why am I fighting him here in my mind? The man didn't do anything bad to me. You really are Jessica ugh! Frizzy turned her attention to me and like her mother, she also examined me from head to toe full of disgust. "Oh! You're the maid! So nice to meet yah." He pointed at me as if we were very close to each other and then kissed me. Suddenly my blood boiled because of what he said. Now I have a reason to fight him. I was ready to punch when Uno took my hand again to calm me down. It succeeded. "Enough with that. Let's continue our talk while eating." Auntie Feli said and walked to the dining room. Frizzy followed but I was the last to stare at him before he turned his back on me. The nerve! "Is he really like that?" I turned to Uno who had been frowning before. He turned to me wearing his poker face. "Don't ask me. I hate her too." It said and walked ahead. Heh sungit! I followed him. When we got to the dining room, Uno immediately pulled me out of a chair, which surprised me a little. This is the first time he has been a gentleman since I worked with him. Kupal is good at acting. I looked at the table full of food. They look like they're going to have a party because of the amount of food served. I was hit straight away. "Iho you didn't tell us that you already have a girlfriend. I was taken aback when Jezel said she's also pregnant. Congratulations by the way." Auntie Feli said as she gently sliced the steak on her plate. "I was planning to surprise everyone." Uno's simple answer while eating as well. He was confident in answering as if the words that came out of his mouth were very true. Of course it's all scripted. "Uhuh, I was literally surprised when I found out she's your maid." Frizzy replied. I turned to her and found her smiling foolishly as she looked at me. He's really going to be bald! I keep losing my appetite. "Gotta problem with that?" Usisa is Uno. He was obviously annoyed with the cousin but just resisted. "A big one. What happened to your taste and you stumbled upon a cheap maid? I'm better than her you know." Malditang says so. Did she just call me cheap ?! Not all helpers are cheap! Obviously, I'm even better than him with a little bath. Really! Stop me and I can kill this witch! If it wasn't for Auntie Feli, I might have answered it earlier. I turned to Uno. He gripped the cutlery tightly which was obviously holding back. "And one more thing, are you sure you're safe with her? What if she has a bad plan for you? She looks like a gold digger-" "Shut up, will you? And who are you to fuvcking judge and call her a fvcking gold digger? You don't even know her!" Because maybe Uno was already full, he couldn't really control himself anymore. Earlier I was filled with anger and I thought I was going to explode. I try to restrain myself. I cupped my palm and bit my tongue just to restrain myself but I couldn't. I can already feel the redness all over my face. "What did he charm you with-" "Enough! I didn't gather you here to fight! We're eating for heaven's sake!" Frizzy's moaning didn't end because of auntie's scolding. It became quiet and he gulped his red wine on my face again. I became even more annoyed with him. The last thing he said was just food. Me? Have a bad plan? Porket hard gold digger immediately? I suddenly remembered what Uno said to me when he scolded me. They are just as poor! I just bent down and didn't say a word. Uno noticed a bit of a change in my mood so he looked at me. I looked up at him when he suddenly cursed. "Damn, your crying." He said and immediately wiped away my tears. I didn't notice that I was crying. Maybe it's because of the frustrations and resentment I feel. I could see Uno's very worried face. The mother and daughter were also looking at me. Frizzy just frowned while auntie Feli was obviously worried as well. I suddenly felt embarrassed so I immediately stood up and walked away from them. I even heard Uno call my name but I was right to leave. This is how I really am when I hold back anger. I feel like my chest is getting too tight so I just let it out crying. I continued walking around the winding interior of the mansion. Where am I now? I'm not familiar with this house so I'm completely lost. I stopped on the side and kicked the wall. Annoying! Napaaw naman ako dahil nasaktan yung paa ko.Tsk!
I'm eemo tas paepal naman tong pader ma to! It's really the witch's fault ugh! I walked again until I felt something pull my hand from behind. I turned to see who it was and Uno appeared in front of me full of worry. "It's going to the basement." He says. I looked at the door on the side. You're embarrassing Jessica! His anger was somewhat reduced and replaced by shame. What happened to my neck and I did an instant tour here at the mansion? Hay naku. "Where is the way out here?" That I would irritate question him. Mokong just laughed at me. It seems like it's been a while since I've been irritated with anger. Did I think this worried me? Bipolar really! If you can laugh, he is facing the stupidest person in the world. Well, it's true but only slightly! I will not destroy myself. "Why are you still walking out? You just look stupid." Its a mockery of me. I chased him because of that. "Aray, is your hand made out of steel? That was hard woman!" I suddenly woke up because of his complaint. Naku lagot! My boss is right in front of me. OA, on the other hand. With the thickness of his muscles, is it still painful? I just signed peace with him. He stared at me and then pulled me away from that place. He talked to auntie Feli for a while when we got to the living room. I never saw Frizzy there again. That's right because I also don't want to see him look like a coloring book. Because the make-up is thick. Auntie Feli apologized to me for her good son. I just smiled hard at him and accepted it. He's kind so it's a bit embarrassing if I supplant him. "He really likes to be bald, pramis." Earlier I was chatting here in the car while Uno ignored me and just focused on driving. "Sir, where are we going? This is not the way home." I wondered to Uno. We should have gotten home earlier, eh, Kela auntie is just nearby. "Quit calling me sir." He disobeyed me instead of answering my question to him. "Eh? Osige señorito nalang." "The fvck? I really don't like sir then señorito you'll call me. Are you dumb or what?" Disgusted he says. I secretly laughed because of his expression. It's just cute. I don't count anymore when I'm with my boss. I feel like we're close. Feeling close to me? Yes. I seem to be immune to Uno's rough and fickle behavior. Maybe there's nothing wrong with being friends with my boss, right? "What do you want me to call you? Choosey more." I whispered. He raised an eyebrow at me. "I heard that. Don't be too formal. Uno is fine." It harvested and turned its attention back to finishing the drive. I just nodded and didn't speak anymore. I felt the car stop so I adjusted my seat. I looked around and trees immediately opened up to me.
Uno came out first so I followed. It was like we were on a mountain and I had no visible households here. Guess what are we doing here? Maybe Uno had a bad plan for me so he took me to an isolated area? Will he rap me? It's okay but why is it still here? I'm not going to relax- what am I thinking? I shook my head to remove the greenish ideas that were occupying my brain. "What are you staring at there? Come here, you look stupid." I jumped in shock when Uno suddenly spoke. Maka-tanga to. I just made a face and followed him. It walked down the small path into the forest. Nyeta what is he up to? Very quiet surroundings. I could only hear the sound of dancing branches and the sounds of insects. I immediately hugged my arm.
It's not dark because there are lights on each side. I think this is a private property. "First where are we going?" I asked him but he didn't pay attention. It was late at night and the air was cold. I"m also starting to get paranoid. I feel like someone is following me.
"It's late at night sir. Let's just go home." My complaint. "The creepy thing here. I feel like someone has followed us." I complained again once around the back. I didn't realize that it suddenly stopped and faced me, so I plunged into his hard chest. I can really smell her expensive perfume. I would have sneezed in case he pushed me away softly so I was disappointed. Just a little bit. "Shut up. You've been blabbering on like that. Just follow me okay?" Long apologies its language to me and continued walking. I haven't spoken yet. We walked quite a distance and then I still didn't lose the feeling that someone was following me so I had no choice but to just touch the hem of her dress. It stopped again and looked at me. What else? "Tss." He just said and removed my grip on his dress and held my hand. I was surprised at what he did. The kind of electricity I feel is there again. What's in his hand? The second time I hit him in the back again because he suddenly stopped without warning. Annoying. It's a trend because 'just wait, people stop first' or simply 'wait' but it wasn't even done. He released his grip on me and opened the gate full of vines. I didn't notice it before. There is something written on it. "Sebastian Private Cemetery," I read in writing. It's like we're going to a cemetery? That's why it seems creepy. What are we going to do here? Don't tell me he will bury me here alive ?! I'm not at fault. "It's a cemetery? What are we going to do here Uno?" I asked him nervously. He ignored me and opened the gate and entered. It's not scary inside unlike when it's outside. There is as much light. But even that! What does he eat and does he go to the cemetery at night? It would be better if he came here tomorrow. Extraordinary! Uno stopped in front of a cross and squatted down. He placed on the tombstone a piece of rose he was carrying, which I have now seen that he has. Maybe he just picked it up out there? I glanced at who he was holding the flower with and my eyes widened because I couldn't read. Echos, of course because of the read. In loving memory of Danica Anette Sebastian

I thought his mom and dad were just separated and then they just went abroad. I am wrong. I approached him and knelt down. "You didn't tell me that we were going to visit your mother. Happy birthday." I said.
He looked at me for a moment and then faced his mother again. "Jessica's mom, by the way," she introduced me to her mom. To my surprise, he suddenly put his arm around my shoulders and pulled me closer to him. I could smell her addictive scent again. Her scent really is! I hope it's always like this. So warm and comfortable. I smiled at those who entered the mind regardless of the inexplicable speed of my chest beating. "..my acting girlfriend." He added that changed the mixture of my face. Right, acting. To be continued...
"Oh geez don't call me madam. Just call me Auntie. You're not a maid here, are you?" I smiled wryly because of what he said. I felt something when she spoke that.
