Chapter 10 - Charles Little Secret

The Last Letter From my Lover

WANDA POV

While we are eating after the event at the facility,  they are talking about the exchange gift, I wish she will love the present that I'll give her.  I was nervous about this gift that I'll give to Ligaya, I bought her a locket. I have a customized Y on her golden necklace for Yazmin and for Sol I bought her a new camera, she always loves photography that's why. Rina's only wish was granted so I don't think I should give her a gift, besides it's hard to find a gift for her she has everything.

LIGAYA POV

I don't know what present to give to Wanda so I bought her a special bracelet, where I even have one! A couple bracelet that's made of gold, and yes. I'm going to answer Wanda after 3 months of courting. My feelings for her grows deeper as I got to know her more, and I want to give more love and attention to her. For Sol, I finished a book that I haven't published. I will give this as a present but also I want to see her reaction to the book. While I bought Yazmin an expensive watch and my present for Rina is a beret hat. I think she'll like it, I just feel it.

SOL POV

I knew Wanda for too long now, she really loves to bake so my present for her is baking appliances. For Ligaya, I bought her a black leather handbag that costs a hundred dollars. For Yazmin, I will give her a diamond bracelet, I wonder what present will they give to me.

YAZMIN POV

I don't know what present I'll give to them, maybe living in the hotel for free will make them happy? I don't really know what to do.

RINA POV

I just went out from the VIP room where we are celebrating right now. I called Charles to come over here and give the presents to them, I bought a stereo for Wanda and a make-up kit for Ligaya. While Yazmin will receive a Whiskey Decanter from me. Last but not least was the telescope for Sol and a little more surprise for her. A few minutes of waiting outside. I heard a ring from the telephone and picked it.

"Ate Rina, I'm here at the reception. Let's meet!" Charles happily said

"Okay, are you sure you brought everything?" I asked to make sure

"You really have big trust issues when it comes to me?"

"Yes, especially when it comes to your ugly face"

"Shut up! I won't give these to you if you keep annoying me" He threatens me

"Sure, but I'll show your friends the picture of you taking your shi-"

"Yes, Ate! Look, it has names on it Wanda, Ligaya and Yazmin"

"How about Sol?"

"Uhm, just go down here!" Then he ended the call, seems like he forgot to my present for Sol. I hurried walking down the stairs because the elevator is taking too long. When I'm in the reception area where I'm all sweety and became breathless. I didn't see Charles here but I a receptionist approached me and gave me the telephone

"Ate, I'm here on the 10th floor where are you?"

"What the Charles?! So basically you were lying to me? Give the telephone to Yazmin or I will make sure your reputation will be ruined!"

"Ate Yazmin oh!" I heard Charles giving the telephone to Yazmin

"Yazmin, can you please make sure Charles won't leave the hotel? I'm all sweaty and breathless here! I have a plan okay just let him stay there." I angrily said

"Woah, calm down Ayla. Sure you can buy some soft drinks near the hotel just hurry okay? Okay, love you!" Yazmin said to look like I'll be taking for a long time here. She ended the call and called someone.

"Hello, Benjamin! This is Ate Rina, can you do me a favor?"
"Hey, Ate Rina! Sure! By the way, where's Charles"
 he asked

"That's what I'm here for" I talked to him and he agreed with it, I rushed to the elevator and hoped everything will go as planned. After all of the people Charles can trick, he chose to play games with me. He doesn't know that I do better.

YAZMIN

Charles really did something stupid to make Ayla mad, when I ended the call he was about to say goodbye when I pulled him and said

"Rina's gonna come back here later, Sol's craving some food and she will also buy some soft drinks for them. So come inside and enjoy the party, Charles! I'll let you escape when she's coming" I said he agreed, he went inside and greeted the 3 of them. They were happily talking to him then the telephone inside the room rang.

"Hello, is this Charles Chavez?"

"Hello, who is this? Charles is inside, partying"

"May I talk to him?"

"Oh, sure! Wait what's your name?"

"Benjamin Dela Torres" He said

I called Charles to say that Benjamin is on the phone he rushed to get the call but my eyes widen when I heard him whisper

"Hello babe, what is it?"

CHARLES

How does he know the telephone number here? I was quite nervous about what he'll say.

"Hello babe, what is it?" I whispered

"Shut the up Charles Aldo Chavez! Are you cheating on me? Why the are you partying right now? You said you're just going to your sister!" His words are blasting in my ears, I'm really dead.

"Hey, calm down let me explain."

" you! Let's break up! Who was the girl who answered the phone, Charles? Is she your girlfriend? Be ready to see your face in Ateneo with the name Charles Cheater Aldo Chavez!" He angrily said

"Babe Benjamin talk to me, please! I can't afford to lose you! I'm not cheating on you, babe!" Then he ended the call as I shouted and bow down on my knee and started crying for a few minutes, everyone except for Ate Sol was shocked about what I said. They tried to calm me down especially Ate Yazmin but I said goodbye to them while I'm still crying what a shame. I opened the door that made me mad, I saw Ate Rina with Benjamin laughing at me and Benjamin hugged me

RINA POV

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED LATER

"Benjamin, I know you have a relationship with Charles. I'm not against, but I support the two of you"

"How did you know Ate?"

"Later, Charles tricked me, so I really need your help. Where are you?"

"At the hotel"

"Why are you here?"

"Charles said you'll meet him here in the hotel. He wants me here to stay"

"What floor?"

"9th"

"I'll go there, just follow what I'll say okay?"

"Sure Ate! I like to trick my boyfriend at times"

I'm on the 9th floor and went inside the room of Benjamin

"Benjamin tell Charles that he's cheating on you, and you want to break up"

And he picked the phone to dial the number

"Hello, is this Charles Chavez?"

"Hello, who is this? Charles is inside, partying"

"May I talk to him?"

"Oh, sure! Wait what's your name?"

"Benjamin Dela Torres," He said and he raised his eyebrows and smiled that's when the war started

"Shut the up Charles Aldo Chavez! Are you cheating on me! Why the are you partying right now? You said you're just going to your sister!"

" you! Let's break up! Who was the girl who answered the phone, Charles? Is she your girlfriend? Be ready to see your face in Ateneo with the name Charles Cheater Aldo Chavez!" Then he laugh silently and ended the call, we rushed to the 10th floor and wait for Charles to open the door. It turns out he opened the door crying a lot while we are laughing at him, he really loves his boyfriend. I know when he really loves he doesn't want to let that person go, and he'll make sure to communicate and make things clear

Then Benjamin hugs Charles

"Sorry babe, I just followed what Ate Rina said"

"Look at my baby brother, crying like a baby because of a boy"

"Ate, how did you know that I'm in a relationship with Benjamin when I only introduced him as my best friend?"

"I don't know ask your Ate Sol" I winked

"Also, when he had an overnight at the house. I heard inappropriate noises in your room, our rooms are next to each other remember? I haven't had a good sleep but I stayed quiet." I added that made the 2 of them shy, everyone is still processing what they've heard but Sol came closer to Charles and Benjamin and congratulate them. Even if they are keeping it a secret, she still notices Charles secret gestures to Benjamin. Her suspicions are correct, after that, I twist Charles ears and said

"That's what you get when you're trying to trick me!"

"Sorry Ate! I'll never trick you ever again" and released my hand

"Good, go the two of you inside the party! We will celebrate!"

"Sure Ate Rina!" Benjamin exclaimed
