8 Miss Mafia!

"Maam Sophie!"

Bigla siyang na alimpungatan ng marinig ang boses ng kanyang yaya.

"Bakit ho?" 

aniyang napapikit ng biglang nakaramdam ng kirot sa kanyang ulo.

"Naparami rami yata ako ng na enum kagabi—" Anya sa sarili

"Pinatatawag kayo ng lolo nyo, impronto!" 

When she heard the word "Impronto" nawala lahat ng antok at kalasingan nya. When her abuelo use that word it means she's in a big trouble.

She quickly groom herself and went down. Nakita nya ang lolo sa dinning table, pulang pula ang mukha umabot pa hanggang tainga nito at kunot na kunot ang noo. 

While her tita Maggie is occasionally taking a glanced towards her Grandfather

The house was unusually quiet at para bang may mali.

When her aunt saw her, her eyes widened, at bigla nalang nitong kunyari itinirik ang mata at pinagalaw galaw ang nguso na di nya maintindihan.

"Margareth!"

"Po—"

Nagulantang nitong sagot ng marinig na tinawag sya ng ama sa buo nyang pangalan!

Kinagat nya ang labi. Alam nyang bad mood ang abuelo pero ang di nya alam ay kung anu ang dahilan.

"Good morning, Lo'!"

Anya at humalik sa noo ng abuelo.

"It's good that your here—Sophia Elizabeth!"

Patay, Full name?!

"Ho—bakit po?"

Di sinasadyang napatingin siya sa tiyahin, she were saying "You're dead" in her action. Hindi sumagot ang kanyang abuelo, he just throw the news paper in front of her. 

"Read it!" He said imperiously.

Her eyes widened in shocked ng makita nya ang pangalan at litrato, at sa tabi nito ay may lalaking parang mummy na nakabalot ng binda.

It was in front page ng news paper with a very unpleasant caption.

"The Miss Mafia" of the biggest shopping magnet beat the son of the congressman and still currently in the hospital bed.

"Whooaa. !"

anyang napangiwi.

"Aren't they exaggerates this peice of crap?" 

She stared at the news paper blankly. 

"Kung alam ko lang sana that this darn media people would like to exaggerate a news like this—I should have killed that bastard!"

She bang the table with her fist. That startled her aunt. Nakalimutan nyang nasa harapan sya ng abuelo.

"Nang sa ganon ang news ngayon ng kung sino mang anak yan ng pontio pilato ay nasa obituary na!"

Gigil nyang bulyaw.

"Cut the crap Sophia Elizabeth!"

Her grandfather's voiced roared like a thunder.

"Sino maglalakas loob na maging asawa ka kung daig mo pang isang sanggano?"

"Lo— uso na ho ang social media now wala napong mag babasa ng news paper!"

"Social media? Ah—Then, why don't you take a look on this?"

Sophia was astonished when she saw herself in the video.

"Luckily, it was already taken care off yan nalang malamang ang nag iisang video natira!"

"I did not—"

"Whats wrong with you?"

her grandfather asked her furiously.

"Anong pumasok diyan sa kukuti mo?"

Sophia keep her mouth shut, arguing with him now will just make things become more complicated. Baka sa galit nito talagang ipapakasal na sya sa kung sino man.

She was already in trouble and this is the best time to used her aunt acting skills, bigla nalang itong hinimatay.!

Bigla nalang nag iba ang expression ng abuelo ng makitang nahimatay ang anak. 

"Call the driver!" 

Utos nito sa pinakamalapit na natatarantang katulong.

"Di pa tayo tapos Sophia— you better had a good explanation to me kung ayaw mong maikasal sa kauna unahang lalaki na kakatok sa pintuan natin bukas at wala akong pakialam kung anong propesyon meron ang lalaking yon!"

She jerked and  said. "Opo!"

She giggled when her aunt winked at her bago ito binuhat ni Gawri patungo sa sasakyan para dalhin sa hospital.

Pwede naman nilang hindi na dalhin ang tita nya sa hospital because they can call their family doctor anytime but Gawri brought her to hospital, to distract the old man and give Sophie time to settle things, as per Margareth's instruction.

Buti nalang her aunt is so supportive and very understanding. When she was left alone, bigla niyang naalala ang tarantadong lalaki kagabi sa bar.

Akmang aakbayan sya nito ng itinulak nya. Palibhasa lasing kaya nawalan ito ng balansi. Akala nya lalayo na ito sa kanya.

Pero lahat ng pag titimpi niya ay nawala ng bigla siyang hablotin nito, which make her lost her sanity.

Hinila niya ang kamay na hawak ng lalaki sabay tadyak sa harapang pagaari ng kayamanan nito.

Namilipit ito sa sobrang sakit pero may kasama pala ito, the son of the congressman.

He suddenly grab her by the shoulder na nailagan nya. Sophia, grabbed his arms and pin him on the ground saka pinag susuntok nya ito sa mukha.

She was probably drunk dahil ang nakita niyang mukha ay yong pag mumukha ng lalaking kinasusuklaman at isinumpa niyang pagnakita niya ulit ay babasagin niya ang mukha nito na kahit aso ay aayaw dito.

She wasn't aware na may nag video pala sa kanya, it was too late nang dumating ang bouncer upang awatin siya.

Basag at duguan na ang mukha ng lalaking bastos na napag buntunan nya ng galit!

That's what happened last night.

Their lawyers can take good care of that bastards, the hell I care for them! Anya sa sarili.

Now. her main problem is, how she could find a suitable husband? Mas lalo lang mahihirapan syang makahanap ng mapapangawasa because of the scandal.

Baka tutohanin na nga ng lolo niyang ipakasal siya sa unang lalaking papasok sa pintuan nila bukas.

Bumalik si sophie sa kwarto nya at tinawagan ang sekretarya.

"Ma'am Sophie— good morning!"

Bati ni Meldy 

Nagising siya sa tunog ng cellphone, today is saturday. her supposed restday. but unfortunately her boss called so, as expected.

Bye-bye beauty rest!anyang naka simangot.

"Meldy, I want you to search a decent escort agency. Hire someone who can be my fake husband!"

she paused.

"Just make sure to do a background checking, then give him my address so I can personally discuss my terms!"

Atter she finished giving instructions  she hung it up without waiting for Meldy's response.

"Ye—"

Hindi paman sya nakasagot nakarinig na sya ng beep na sunod-sunod

Aniya habang tinitigan ang cellphone. Sinira na ang beauty rest ko, tapos bastos pang kausap

kung makapagutos kala mo kung sino? kung di kalang talaga si Sophia, matagal na kitang iniwan!

Maktol ni Meldy sa sarili.

"But indeed she's your boss so wag kana magcomplain ha?!"

Paalala ni meldy sa sarili.

"Grrrrrrr para na akong luka- luka sayo maam Sophie— pati sarili ko kinakausap ko na kung di kalang talaga malaki magpasahod matagal na akong nagresign!

Frustrated na sigaw ni Meldy habang nagsesearch sa laptop ng "decent agency" kuno to hire fake husband for her super mabait na amo.

Bruha talaga tong Sophie nato, sino ba namang maglalakas loob pumayag na maging asawa nya kung nakabalandra na sa lahat ng dyaryo ang kanyang pagmumukha. Miss mafia? bagay nga talaga sa kanya.
