CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 2

I shake my head for that thought . seriously Alli at the day of your break up. I just rolled my handkerchief at my right hand to ease atleast a little of the pain. My phone rang. I walk again.

"ALLI!!" I immidiately put away my phone on my ears. Damn my eardrums.

"Where the hell are you?!do you know how worried I am because this is not you, you always said something before you go out or whatever destinations you will in!" she really knows me.

"Calm down Rain, I'm okay don't worry, I'm sorry for leaving you alone." I tried so hard to feel okay as I remember again on what happened on ob-gyn because I don't want her to know what happened because she's pregnant. It will stress her out.

"Yeah, you should feel sorry!.. your so mean.." and she starts crying, I guess I really make her worried and combining the hormones because she is preggy.

"sorry should I go back or…." I really hesitated to say if I go back or not… I really don't want to go back.

" no, it's okay, Jax will be here any minute now. I called him Asap when I saw that your not here. Call me if ever you have a problem or else I will pull your hair until you got bald!" and she hang up. She's always like that, we're not typical clingy, we think it's too much and cringe.

"what a preggy moody." I look up in the sky. And inhaled, it just took me an hour to lose all my plans with him. I guess it will be better not to see him again, I know my position and leaving him is the best choice and one day he will thank me for that decisions. His now a father.

My phone beep again.

It's my Big Brother, he wants me to go home already. My eyebrows met at confusedness this is not like him, I know that my parents is strict and I want to go home too but coming from him makes me nervous.

( Lester) His my Big Brother but I preferred calling Him that way.

"Go home now Alli."

I didn't think twice. But before I entered on taxi, I wipe all the tears on my face.

Our house is not that big or small. It's just exact to called us have stable financially family.

I inhaled and walk to our door. The lights is all on and that means we have a visitor. Why am I nervous?.

As I walk through our dining I can hear their laughs and loud noise, the cheers of glass of the wine and the smell of steak. I rush to just see my Big brother, Mommy and Daddy sitting in the dining table and infront of them is the- wth!? Why are they here? Now I know why Lester texted me. I look at him and he just smile a little bit, feeling sorry for me.

Mercado family- is have one of the biggest company here in Makati. And their one and only child Jack Mercado. They're talking Interrupt when I entered. My Mom immediately get up and approach me she held my hands and smiled.

"Be nice." she whispered before she introduce me.

"Everyone this is my second child. Alli Roxfer." I look at the Mercado family, they are just three but their presence is big. The Family that everyone's envy well except for me. I'm not interested at all.

"oh, your daugther is so beautiful Helen, she looks so like you when your young." Mother of Jack said.

"Come on, it's on our genes." And they laugh together.

What's funny? I just gave them a face without expressions.

"sit…honey.." Dad gave me a smile for assurance and to ease my nervousness.

I smiled a little, his my Best friend and a father at the same time, he might be strict but not to the point like my Mom. Because Mommy wants to control me and just wanting me to do what she wants me to do and it's exhausting.

I sat beside Lester and the one who's infront of me is Jack. He has this little smirk on his face. I don't like him at all, I heard many humors about him and one of them didn't have a good image left to me about him. In short his a motherf*cker.

"Good evening." I slight bow my head to sign as a respect for their presence.

I saw how Jack mother's twinkle when our eye's met. She smiled so cheerfully. She's beautiful I admit it but not as beautiful as my Mother the only difference about them is their presence, Mommy has a presence of intimidating that can make nervous anyone they just first met but her she have a presence that will make you feel warm. A friendly one.

"What are you taking now Alli? Your Father is a Prosecutor and your Mother is a Teacher and your Brother is taking an exam for being a Doctor. I'm curious on what path are you taking?" unlike Mrs. Mercado, Mr. Mercado is silent so mysterious by just the look, I can't tell wether his happy or not.

I fix my sitting style into a sitting rich style. I'm an Roxfer, I can't let them looking down at me. I'm an independent woman I don't need anyone to walk on my own, I can sacrifice my happiness for a person even if it's still not born. I got teary eyed when I remember what happened earlier. But I immediately erase it on my head when Lester saw me with that expression.

His hard face earlier is now soft when he saw his little sister almost crying. I saw how he move his hand and put it under table to grab my hand. He squeezed it and I felt my heart skip a bit at his action. I mouthed thank you at him and he just nodded.

"I'm sorry to fade your expectations Mr. Mercado but I'm taking a B:Des Fashion designing." I saw how Mommy grasp.

She didn't expect that 'cause all along she knows that I will take Architecture but little did she know that I'm skipping my class for that and instead I go to fashion designing building everyday. She didn't know that I'm absent everyday because Lester is there to back me up. I saw how Dissapointment filled Daddy's eyes. My heart hurts for that. I didn't tell him either. I'm sorry….

Lester tightened his grip on mine.

"Oh.." Mr. Mercado smirk. They are dirty when it comes to handling company they are denying it all the time but people knows the truth but they can't take actions because they are powerful and I hope someday they will met a person who can drag them down so that the innocent and poor people that they are targeting will be free.

I really hate that kind of smirk it's same as Jack smirk, no doubt they are Father and Son.

"dirty player.." I hissed before I stop myself.

"ALLI!" Mommy shouted. I don't want to be control by anyone and I don't like anyone looking down at me. Hurt me all you want but I will not say sorry when I know that your wrong.

"HAHAHA!" Mr. Mercado laugh so hard. Mrs. Mercado calming him down and Jack just there sitting like nothing is happening. What a damn family. I feel so sorry for Mrs. Mercado. I don't know why but my blood is rising whenever I see them or even saw them on Newspaper listed their Achievements. But in fact they got that Big Company because they are Corrupting the People Money. I will not surprise if they have a right hand on the Government.

In between of his laugh I saw how his face change into a deadly one. I got caught of guard. I'm sweating.

"I know something." My world got cramp. Rex is the first person i think.

Even though were now done I know that they will ruin his life in return for having me for the five years. If they know that he cheated on me and his now having a baby on other woman. They will kill him for sure. They trust him and he just waste it.

But I didn't give him what he wanted. I look at him straight in the eyes. Feeling so brave and hoping that this night will end immediately. Because it's slowly draining me.

"Rex Salazar." I'm doomed.
