[b]Chapter 36[/b]
[i][u]Denver’s POV [/u][/i]
“Hello Philippines!” I said to myself as I got out from the plane.
“Excuse me sir.” That is just a couple of guards who approached me.
“Ano po ang problema?” tanong ko, parang may palpak nanaman ata akong ginawa!
“Sir patingin nga po ng I.D.” I handed them my I.D.
“Sir sigurado po ba kayong ikaw ‘to?” Crap! Naka-disguise pala ako!
“Opo sir! Denver Ford.” But I think they are not convinced so they took me in a little table inside the airport where everybody would see me.
“Sir, I’m telling you! I’m Denver Ford! I graduated as the valedictorian in Burberry High and the captain of our soccer team and vocalist of our band broken heart strings!” I said defending myself.
“Looks like you have a lot of research about Denver Ford?”
Crap! I need a miracle.
“Heyya officer!”
“Ka-Kara?!” I was shocked that made fall from my chair
“He is telling the truth.” Kara said and let the officer step away from the computer.
“As you can see it is impossible for a person like him to know every likes and dislike of a person especially if you are pretending to be him or her.” The police nodded and asked me questions and obviously I got it all right.
“Thank you officer!” Kara said as she bid good bye to the officer.
“What the hell are you doing here?” I said as I held Kara’s arms.
“To make your life miserable that’s all, no biggie. O and yea, Ryan this is Denver and Denver this is Ryan.” Instead of shaking each other’s hands we exchange glares then I walked away.
“Denver!” That’s my cousin Nathan, extremely dangerous actor.
“Nathan! Oy, pakibuhat naman ung iba kong bag.” I said while pointing my 3 other bags.
“Basta nandyan pasalubong ko!” He said as he wrapped his arm around my neck.
“Yea nandyan un
” Binuhat niya na at sinimulan na namin ang napaka traffic na daan papunta sa bahay ni Tita Eloisa.
“Tita sa kitchen tayong lahat.” Nakarating na kami sa bahay ni Nathan.
“Ah Tita, I will be known as Tyler Santos your adopted son who studied in Canada at Tita Len’s.” They all looked at each other.
“Why do you need to pretend?” Tita Eloisa asked.
“I need to protect Paige, the one I will be engaging with? ‘Cause someone desperate is here for me. And also I’m disguising to prevent her from knowing that I’m his fiancé ‘cause her mother wants it to be a surprise in her 18th birthday.” Nathan acted like he didn’t care.
“Did you understand what he said?” Tita Eloisa asked Nathan.
“Nah, not a word. You talk fast man!” He said then laughed. “O yea, Tita una na ako may date pa ako
” Loko-loko din eh! Parang pangalawang Keith buti na lang tumino si Keith
“Basta ha! Tyler tawag mo sa akin.” Sigaw ko habang paalis na siya.
“Sige! Bye Tyler!
” I tsked as soon as he went out of the house.
“Magpahinga ka na 8 tayo bukas sa preschool and for sure baka darating na rin si Paige
” I smiled and looked away.
“You think Ma tama ‘tong ginagawa ko?” I said emphasizing the word ‘ma’.
“Ikaw! Nasa sa iyo na yan, kung sa tingin mo tama ang ginagawa mo. Since malaki ka na, alam mo na mag-distinguish ng tama sa mali.” she said as she lead me to my room. “Osha! Eton a ung kuwarto mo.”
“Thanks po.” I said then rolled over the bed. Wondering how plans are going to work out.
[i]Morning
[/i]
“Kuya Tyler! Breakfast!” That is Jack, 13-year-old cousin of mine, since his Mom died at his early age and his father ran away with a bitch, Tita Eloisa was the one who took care of him ever since.
“Sige! Sige! Pupunta na!” I shouted as I cover my face with a pillow.
“Gandang umaga!” I said as I went down stairs and of course I already took a shower.
“Ang bilis mo nag-shower!” sabi ni Jack na tumatawa.
“Ikaw ha! Umaga palang pinagtritripan mo na ako.” I said as I wrapped my arms in his neck
Andami kop ala namiss for 10 years.
“O tama na yang kulitana t kumain na, malalate si Kuya Tyler sa mission niya!” sabi ni Tita Eloisa habang binababa ung mga ulam sa mesa.
“Kuya Denver, bakit kailangan ka naming tawagain na Tyler, eh ok naman pangalan mo ha?” That was Jack asking a a very private question which only a few should only know.
“Just don’t argue with that fact! Just call me Tyler okay?” I said giving him a thumbsup.
“Why doesn’t anyone trust a 13-year-old? Hello! Thirteen na kaya ako!” He said waving his hands in the air as we reach the food
Bacon, hotdog, nuggets, bread, and the star of the table ‘rice’.
“Ma parang andami naman?” I said as I grab my chair.
“Ano ba Kuya Tyler! Kain ka na lang busy na kaming kumakain ehy ikaw tanong pa ng tanong!” Jack said while patting my back. Napatawa kaming lahat
“Oo na, sorry na po lolo.” I said and eat.
“So Ma, Sabay ba tayong pupuntang preschool?” I said habang subo
“Hindi, si Jack hahatid mo muna sa school tapos punta ka sa preschool.” She said while pouring juice in Jack’s glass.
“How would I possibly know kung saan ang preschool niyo Ma?” She smiled.
“The motorbike I’m giving you has a GPRS installed in its voice activated.” she said. And like wow, I never thought Philippines would be advance that much I thought techy stuffs are only in US
“Cool! Tyler will drive me to school.” Jack said boo-yaing
Eat, brush, and drive
“Here are the keys.” Tita Eloisa said and threw the keys to me. Isa siyang cool na dalagang-matanda
“O Jack, wear helmet!” I said and put the helmet in Jack’s head.
“Thanks Kuya, you’re the best
” Sabi niya at umangkas na sa likod ko.
[i]Paige’s POV[/i]
“Pancake!” Somebody shouted behind me.
“Pancake!” I shouted back as soon as I saw Nick. Well, kinda sweet for friends pero ganyan talaga kami
“Paige long time no see.” Joan said while hugging me. Joan was in US a few years ago and she is two years older than me though. Tapos bigla ako hinug ng very tight ni Nicholas ko
“Pancake! I miss you very much! At lalo ka pang gumanda ngayon
” I heard somebody scoffed behind me and nearly forgot.
“O yea guys! Eto ung mga friends ko sa US. Si Mike, the great drummer.” Mike stopped playing his drum stick and held out his hands.
“Nice meeting you guys
” Mike said and got back in playing his drum sticks.
“And this is Rex, the awesomest organist.” Rex stopped chewing his gum and gladly smiled at them and shook their hands.
“And the last but not the least.... Asan na yung loko-lokong un.” I said while searching for my last contestant.
“Hey I’m Keith, the guitarist.” Tumingin kaming lahat sa likod nandoon si Keith. Instead of seeing all my friends smile, I saw Keith staring at Joan madly and Joan was looking down, what the?
“Joan? Kilala mo ba si Keith?” I said looking worried.
“Ahehehe, diba I was in US a few years ago and alam mo naman ang friend mo mahilig sa mga banda.” She faked a laugh then asked us to go in the vehicle. Crap! Ano ba ang nangyayari dito?
“Ilagay niyo na lang dito mga bagahe niyo.” Nick shouted as he put mine at the compartment. Tahimik si Keith while staring outside and Joan was the same thing :sigh:
“Oh guys! Lunch tayo kina Tita Eloisa ha!” I said to break the silence.
“Ah Paige, sorry pero hindi ako makakasama kasi may lakad kami ng parents ko.” Joan said sounding unconvincing.
“Diba sinabi mo sa akin bago ako dumating na na-cancel mo lahat ng lakad mo?” I said while pouting.
“Yea, Paige told us that we will hang-out with her schedule free buddies.” Keith said madly which made Joan really embarrassed.
“Keith!” Keith shook his head in disbelief and looked away.
“It is better if you and Nick will visit your Tita Eloisa while we take our rest, okay?” Mike suggested.
“Okay but we will have lunch together at our house. I’ll just visit the preschool.” I said then dropped them at our house and Joan to theirs. It is only 9:30 in the morning. I saw Tita Eloisa reading stories to the children, as usual
“Tita Eloisa!” I said as I climbed the stairs. All the kids went out and said hi to me and Tita Eloisa introduced me to each and every one. Minutes later a screech was heard and all of them looked including me. As he remove his helmet he looks damn Denver opposite! Hindi naman siya pangit pero opposite ng guwapo ni Denver pero guwapo, ah basta di ko ma-explain!
“Ma.” aba tahimik.
“Tyler, eto nga pala si Paige anak-anakan ko. Paige si Tyler adopted son ko.” He held out his hand smiling weakly and I shook it.
“Tyler ikaw na bahala sa mga bata.” He just nodded and lead the children.
“Tita bakit ngayon ko lang siya nakilala?” I said curiously.
“He studied in Canada at your Tita Len’s and very outstanding student.” she smiled proudly and looked at Tyler while playing the harmonica. I stared at him and he has a very calm emotion it is like he has no problem at all.
“Hi Tita Eloisa! Pancake!” Nick naman eh! Panira ka eh nag-oobserve ako ng guwapo
[i][u]Denver’s POV [/u][/i]
I stopped playing as soon as I saw a boy put his arms around Paige. The children all looked at me.
“Kuya Tyler bakit kayo tumigil?”
“Ah nothing.” I said plain to the child who asked me then Tony looked at the direction I was looking at.
“You are so damn jealous Kuya.” Tony said straight.
“Where did you learn to speak such language?” I said raising a brow.
“I watched Wanted last night.” He said then shrugged his shoulders. I smiled then shook my head softly.
“So what do you want to do next?”
