AFTER his photoshoot, kahit pagod na ang katawan ni Kyst. Pinilit parin niya ang manager na pumunta sa Mall, he wants to buy something for Khaila. He noticed that his little angel was so engrossed with the Disney movie she's watching the other day.

"Alam mo ikaw! Napaka tigas ng ulo mo! Hindi ka marunong magpahinga! Sino ang mag-aalaga sayo kapag nagka sakit ka ha?!" panenermon na naman ng manager niya habang nasa biyahe sila papuntang Mall. He lazily rubbed his eyes and yawned.

"I can handle my self just fine, Mabel. And if worse comes to worse, maybe there's one person who's willing to take care of me?" patanong niyang sagot.

Mabel rolled his eyes. "At sa tingin mo ang pamangkin ko 'yon? Sige! Managinip ka ng gising, Kyst. Goodluck. Kailangan mo 'yan!" Mabel shoved the neck pillow on his face. "Umidlip ka muna. Traffic naman, gisingin nalang kita kapag nasa Mall na tayo. Ano ba naman kasing naisip mo at biglang gusto mong mag mall? Pwede mo naman gawin 'yon kapag nakapag pahinga kana!" sermon na naman ng manager niya.

Kyst shake his head and grab his earphones together with his phone ang play some relaxing music to calm his mind and nerves. He preferred listening to music than to listen to his manager nonstop nagging mouth. He was smiling to himself, funny that he couldn't feel the tiredness just because he was too excited to buy a gift for Khaila. His little angel.

Tinanggal niya ang isang earphone niya at hinarap ang manager na busy sa pagtipa sa cellphone na hawak nito. "Mabel, may specific favorite food ba si Angelyn?" he asked.

"Lasagna. Madalang lang siyang makakain noon nang ganoon dahil una, wala siyang pera at pangalawa. She spend her money on her scum bag ex rather than buy a expensive food."

"Why the fuck she's providing money that scum?!" he hissed. Tumaas bigla ang presyon niya sa narinig. Mabel sighs heavily.

"Love." his manager answered shortly.

"Woman don't have to provide for us, men. Men should be the one providing for them."

Kyst can't imagine Angelyn spending all her money for him. Angelyn suffered a lot from her ex partner, it's the time for her to feel like a Queen. He'll provide for them. He will gave everything they need and wants. He's willing to be a father and a husband figure for his two angels.

"Where to?" Mabel asked.

"Toy Kingdom. Let's go buy a human size doll for my little Angel. Then we'll buy her a new clothes, shoes and everything that my little Angel needs." he instructed while looking at his phone, Killian was bombing him again with a lot of text messages.

"At sa nanay?" nakataas ang kilay na tanong ni Mabel.

Kyst smirked. "Next time. Let's shop for my daughter first."

"Mas mahal ang anak kaysa sa nanay?" Mabel taunted. Kyst shake his head and brushed his hair using his fingers.

"I love them both." Kyst smiled at his manager.

Sinuot muna ni Kyst ang face mask at baseball cap. He doesn't want anyone to disturb him, kahit fans pa niya. Nasa gilid lang niya ang bodyguard slash driver, sumasabay sa lakad niya.

Nang makapasok sila sa Toy Kingdom, agad hinanap ni Kyst ang human size doll na available. Luckily there's one, a smiled stretched out on his lips when he saw the doll. His little Angel will probably like it. It's a human size Elsa and Anna, after all.

Nakatingin lahat ng sales lady sa bawat galaw niya. He got irritated for some unknown reason. Damn.

"Mabel. Buy all the Frozen stuffs here." utos niya sa manager niya.

"Huh? Ang dami na nito ah?" reklamo ni Mabel.

He glance at the cart. Puno na iyon ng mga laruan para sa batang babae, hindi na niya halos matandaan kung ano-ano ang mga inilagay niya sa cart. When Kyst thinks that his little angel would like it, nilalagay agad niya.

"Tama na 'to, Kyst. Mapapatay ka ng pamangkin ko kapag inuwi mo lahat 'to sa apartment nila."

Kyst smiled fell. He don't like the idea of Angelyn nagging him nonstop about his gifts for his little Angel, kaya kahit masakit sa kalooban niya, napilitan siyang bawasan ang mga laruan na nasa cart. From countless toys to 10 toys only.

"Is this enough? Will she nag me?" Kyst asked Mabel.

"I'm happy seeing you like this again, Kyst." Mabel answered instead. Si Mabel na ang nagtulak sa push cart papuntang counter at ito na din ang nagbayad. Of course, using Kyst credit card.

"Let's buy take out for dinner." tumango lang si Mabel at sumunod sakanya.

"Ako na, maghintay ka nalang sa Van. And rest. You look so worn out. Huwag ka ng makulit, Kyst!" banta ng manager niya kaya sumunod nalang siya.

Kyst helped his bodyguard to carried the. other paper bags he's holding, tumanggi pa ang bodyguard but he just smiled and assured him that it's okay. Kyst was so dead tired, at alam niya na ganoon din ang manager at guard niya. He waited patiently inside the Van. And while waiting he opened his data ang open his Tele.

Killian: @Kyst. Gago, hindi mo na ako pinapansin!

Caleb: Bud, maybe he's busy. Don't you have other things to do?

Esel: He's like @Mikael. They like disturbing busy people.

Mikael: Busy? Ulul pakyu!

JyrelleVraxx: what's with the commotion again? Akala ko patay na ang GC naten.

Laur: Couz, nag-iingay lang naman 'to kapag may tsismis.

Light: Yep, mga tsismoso kasi kayo!

Ranger: Says the man who love to spread news.

Ryker: Amen @Light

Kyst: I'm exhausted @Killian. Find someone else to bug.

Dylan: Woah how's everyone?

Alistair: Dipshit. Bakit pa kayo Nagcha-chat? Magkakaharap lang tayo. Well, except from @Kyst na MIA na naman.

Castiel: What's up? It's me again! Castiel the handsome.

JyrelleVraxx: No one asked.

Yves: I'll cook porridge for you @Castiel.

Kade: I'm going home. I don't want to see @Castiel face. Nasusuka ako.

Castiel: F you!

Kade: Not interested Iel.

Kyst: Drinking?

Killian: Yes. At absent ka na naman! Tangna ka.

Kyst: I told you, love. I have to work my lovely ass for us to have a better future!

He smirked and send a sticker that looks like vomiting. Kyst smile widened when his friends replied 'Yuck!' with the same sticker he sent. His friends are really something. But come to think of it, he never skips a night out with them. He never ditched them just like what he's doing right now. Kyst planned suddenly changed.

"Let's go!" pumasok sa loob ng van ang manager niya dala ang dalawang malaking paper bag.

Kyst massage the bridge of his nose when he felt dizzy all of a sudden. Mukhang napansin 'yon ng manager niya at agad ipinatong ang likuran ng palad sa noo niya.

"Drink a medicine after you ate. Huwag mo akong pahirapan please lang! Kailan mo pa naramdaman na nahihilo ka?" Mabel ask. Worried was visible in his voice.

"Ngayon ngayon lang."

"Tiisin mo. Malapit na tayo."

Kyst just nod his head and squeezed his eyes shut. He ransacked his mind, pilit na inaalala kung nalipasan ba siya ng gutom kanina o hindi siya nakakain but that was impossible because Mabel was too strict with him when it comes to his eating time.

Binuksan niya lang ang mga mata ng tinapik siya sa binti ni Mabel. "Andito na tayo, umakbay ka kay Cj okay?" he weakly nodded his head.

His head keeps on throbbing, parang hinahati ito sa dalawa. He can't barely lift his hands and even move his legs to walk. Kung hindi nakasuporta sakanya si Cj, ang bodyguard niya, tiyak na matutumba ito. Kyst wants to bang his head on the nearest wall, aside from his throbbing head. Hindi din siya makahinga sa sobrang init na nararamdaman niya!

"Mabel..." he weakly called his manager. "It's hot. I'm feeling hot." reklamo niya.

"Lagnat po, Mam Mabel." Cj said.

"Great! Umamin ka nga sakin! Nagpapahinga ka ba kapag sinabi ko sayong magpahinga ka?" seryosong tanong ni Mabel habang nakapamaywang.

How can he rest when he have a lot of papers to sign? How can he rest when he needs to review a lot of files and approved them after? Just fucking how?! And he'll do it in a heartbeat.

"Angelyn! Buksan mo ang pintuan!" kinalampag ni Mabel ang pintuan.

"Uncle! Anong—" Angelyn eyes met his. "Anong nangyari sayo?" her voice become gentle and angelic.

"Nilalagnat. Anyway, sabado naman bukas. Wala kang pasok diba? Kakapalan ko na ang mukha ko. Walang mag-aalaga sa baby damulag ko, at sigurado ako na hindi din naman 'yan magpapa admit sa hospital. Makiki usap ako sayo na kung pwede sayo muna si Kyst." Mabel said. Sa tono ng pananalita nito parang gusto na siya nitong ipamigay, but Kyst wouldn't mind if Mabel will leave him here.

"Pero—"

Mabel cut her off. "Kyst buys a lot of toys for your daughter. Look at him, he looks so tired and worn out right? Mukha siyang binugbog ng sampung tao less the pasa. Kaya sige na, nagmamakaawa ako sayo. Alagaan mo na 'tong alaga ko, ilang araw lang naman." pakiusap ng manager niya.

Kyst jaw clenched when he saw the glimpse of rejection on Angelyn's eyes. He inhaled deeply.

"Uuwi nalang ako sa bahay ko. I'm going to call Killian to fetch me." Kyst interject. Ugali na niya ang pamimilit, but he doesn't have the strength to take another rejection from Angelyn. So he'll better go home and rest.

"No. Hindi ka uuwi," Kyst stilled for a moment. Angelyn bit her lower lip and stared at him.

"Dito ka nalang. Ako ang mag-aalaga sayo."

Ahhh... Music to my ears.
