Chantall

"Here, have this." Sandro said as he gave me the red polo shirt with his surname in the back, it's November and we are now heading in the Comelec because Mr.President will file for the Vice Presidency Candidacy and Sandro will also file his Government Candidacy, that's why we must all wear red.

"We'll go straight to the Ilocos also to announce that I'll run for Governor." I nodded at him and started packing my things up kasi dadalhin na namin agad yung mga luggages namin para derecho na kami agad ng Ilocos. Good thing I have 1 week break from the shoot kaya I can make time for this, and also I want him to see and feel my presence in his first step journey as an Ilocos Norte Governor.


"Love," tawag ko dito and nilingon naman ako nito, I went on him and held his two arms and squeeze it, his eyebrows raised asking why.


"None, I'm just so proud of you. And I am happy that I am already with you through this journey and to the next and to the next and to the next journey of yours." I told him and he laughed, he hugged me so tight and kissed my head.


"Thank you for being here." he whispered at me and we both planned na sabay na kami maligo, para madali.

I find myself on the sink, moaning his name and enjoying his lips and tongue trailing in my whole body, we're enjoying the moment and the Filing of his candidacy fade away for a moment in our mind.

"Oh. S.sorry." I moaned when I feel that I accidentally scratched his back,

After another round we realized that we're gonna be late if we continue doing this so we take 3 hours on the bathroom before we get out and prepare ourselves. I'm so tired and exhausted but we can't just sleep.

"Ikaw kasi." sisi ko dito kaya tumawa ito. Nagmamadali kaming bumaba kasi nandito na si Tita Liz, she's the one who will fetch us para nakavan na,

"Tita! Good morning!" I greeted Tita Liza as I entered the van and kissed her cheeks.

"You're 15 minutes late ha? Your Tito Bong is already there, si Sandro nalang yung hinihintay." Tita told me so I gave her a peace sign so she laughed nalang.


"You're so cute, dear. " ackkk! May pacompliment pa ako kay Tita, kahit walang ayos yung buhok ko, Sandro went inside the van with my portable chargeable blower and yeah! Doon na ako pumirmi sa likod para hindi istorbo kina Tita but sinundan naman ako ni Sandro sa likod to make my hair nalang daw.

"Bakit kayo nalate? Kanina pa kayong alas sais gising because the both of you are online on the internet, sabi ni Simon." Saad ni Tita so me and Sandro strared at each other and we avoided gazes din naman after.

"We have fun, Mom eh." nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi niya kaya hinampas ko ito kaya Sandro laughed at me. I can feel my face is burning and even my ears.

"It's okay to be late no, at least we both have fun. We sang while making,.. pancakes. Hahaha!" saad ni Sandro with halong pang-aasar sa boses niya and pinindot-pindot pa ang tagiliran ko.

"Isa, Sandro." sita ko dito kaya mas lumakas yung tawa nito.

"You should think din kasi about your agenda for today." Tita Liz told us so stared at Sandro at kinuha ang blower at ako na ang nagblower sa buhok ko.

I did my minimal make up on the van nalang at the same time, I just put concealer, powder and tints on my cheeks and lips and also highlighter na din.

I am wearing my Red Polo Shirt that Sandro gave to me and a white high waisted jeans and a pair of white sneakers, inilugay ko lang ang hair ko and I wear my shades as we arrived on the destined place.

The PSG escorted Tita Liz as she went down on the van and sumunod na din ako.

"Chantall, tatakbo po ba sa pagkasenador si Sandro?" the reporter asked me and sakto din na lumabas si Sandro dala ang bag ko.

"Oops, I forgot." I told Sandro and the PSG are protecting us against the media's at matiwasay kaming nakapasok sa loob.

"Tito Bong! Advance congratulations to your Vice Presidency journey." I greeted him as I saw him and run towards him to have a beso, I also see Jamie and Matthew on the back.

"Thank you, Hija! Thank you. Ilang oras na kayo late ah." Tito Bong said and inakap naman si Sandro.

"I'm sorry, Dad." Sandro apolized but Tito Bong chuckled nalang.

"It's okay. It's okay." Tito Bong said.

"Jamie! Kuya Matt!" I greeted at them and hugged Jamie so tight. Sabay pala silang tatlo magfile eh.

"Chan! Ang ganda mo! Blooming." panunudyo ni Jamie sa akin.

"Abot langit ang ngiti, Sandro ah. Happy because you will own my position na in the Ilocos." pang-aasar ni Kuya Matt kay Sandro and nakipag-fistbomb pa ito.

"Shut up, I will look like a villain here, there are a lot of cameras oh." Me and Jamie just find somewhere to seat because the politicians have their own world and out of place lang kami nito.

"Ganda nalang talaga ambag natin." Jamie told me and inayos yung buhok nito. Tumango nalang ako.

"At least, may magandang first lady sila in the future. Sundan ang yapak ni Mama Meldy at Tita Liza. Hahahahah!" I told her and she nodded at tumawa, nakipag-apir pa sa akin.

"More bash and hates na naman matatanggap nila now. It's election day na eh." Jamie said so I stared at them  who's busy talking to each other.


"Kahit ano naman gawin mo, may masasabi at masasabi pa din sa'yo ang tao. You can't avoid negativities and bashes in life especially on us people, all you just need to do is how will you see it and handle it in a good positive way." sagot ko dito so she stared at me kaya tinignan ko din si Jamie.

"You should join Miss Universe," I chuckled and shake my head. I'm already contented and happy to be a model and actress at the same time. I have a lot of brands na inaccept ko dito so mostly na makikita nila sa billboard is mukha ko na. International brand lang ako dati kaya hindi expose dito but now.


"Two future First Lady, come! Let's take a photo."Tito Bong called me and Jamie stared at each other and sabay na tumawa at tumayo.


"Ano ka ba, Tito. Kami lang 'to." Jamie said jokingly so everyone laughed. Hinila ako ni Sandro palapit sa kaniya and he wrapped his arms around my waist as we take a photo, there are a lot of camera's naman na so I don't need to give my phone para may copy ako because for sure  may sa social media naman.

Me, Jamie and Tita Liz went on the side and stared at the three of them who's signing the papers.

"Thank you for supporting the family, Hijas!"Tita Liz told us and tapped our shoulders. Being a politician really runs in their blood so we must support them at the first place, because it's not for them naman eh. It's for the people and the country also. They are just chosen to help, lead and guide the people, but the unity and us, countrymen are the doors for changes. Not them, but us. Individual of us.

Everyone clapped their hand as they finished their signing and started photo taking, Jamie went on Matthew to take some photos and also Tita Liz so I was left alone on the side when Sandro went on me and held my hand to take some photos.


"Congratulations my Governor, good luck on your campaign and expect that I will be with you from your day 1 until the end." I told him, I hope no one can hear dahil for sure, corny yun sa tenga ng iba.


"This is not just for me, this is for you and for our future baby." he said and he held my tummy kaya tinapik ko kamay nito. Baka isipin na buntis na ako uy. Yung flash pa naman ng camera tuloy-tuloy. Hahahahaha! He laughed at me and stole a kiss on my lips.

My eyes widen because of what he did and it's still processing in me that he kissed me Infront of the cameras and the media.

"Mabuhay ang bagong kasal!" pang-aasar ni Gov Matt kaya natawa ang lahat.

"Sandro, kating-kati ka na ba halikan si Chantall sa harap ng madaming tao? Parang gustong- gusto na magpakasal eh." Tito Bong said and I covered my face with the bag because they are starting teasing us.


After picture taking, we went on the rooftop because the chaffeur is already there and by 2:30pm, nandoon na kami. It's already 12pm and we'll have lunch nalang doon sa Ilocos.

"Are you okay?" Sandro asked me and I nodded and smiled,

"I'm just tired. But it's okay, it's for you naman." I answered him and he sighed,

"It's okay if you will stay here muna and enjoy your day off. I will be okay, Love." Sandro told me and held my hands and his face softened because of what I said.


"No, I want to be there." I told him so he hugged me and his hug really is a powerful hug. Sometimes I call his hug as a 'power hug' because it can ease my exhaustion eh.

We can now clearly hear the helicopter and the PSG gave us a headset so I wear my shades muna because of the sun. I stared at Sandro as he wears his headset and sinuotan niya din ako.

Hindi talaga nakakasawa kagwapuhan nito no? I swallowed the lump on my throat when I stared on his lips so I bit mine and umiwas ng tingin.

"You'll have a kiss later, don't worry. Kahit 1 hour pa." pasigaw nitong saad sa akin kaya hinampas ko braso nito. We went inside the helicopter na and lumipad na din. I end up sleeping on his shoulders.

"Love, we're here. Wake up!" Sandro said as he pat my cheeks softly, I just groaned and opened my eyes, I scratch my eyes and he get my headphones, kaya nagulo ang buhok ko.

We're in an open space and ako nalang talaga ang tao dito sa chauffeur.

"How was your nap?" he asked me as I am fixing myself, inalalayan ako nito pababa. I wear my shades as the officials went on us,


"Hello po, Miss Chantall." I smiled at her and I saw that she's the Barangay Secretary, may nakaprint kasi sa side ng shirt nito.

"Hi!" I greeted her back and she don't know if ibeso niya ba ako or kakamayan so I initiated to have beso with her.

She escorted us papasok ng hall to have some lunch muna before the event will start and wala pa naman gaanong tao dito.

"Kayo na po ang susunod na first lady sa Ilocos, Miss. Kasunod ni Ma'am Jamie." She said to me so I chuckled at her. Kaloka, first lady agad. Wala na akong masay.

Papasok pa lang ng hall, rinig ko agad ang boses ni Vincent and Simon na nag-uusap sa dining, Tito Bong and Tita Liz are also here, mas nauna silang lumapag kaysa sa amin.

"Channy Baby! Welcome back to Ilocos Norte." Vincent greeted us cheerfully and he went on me to hug me, Simon also.

"What's up, Gov. Ayieeeehh! Governor na siya." pang-aasar ni Vincent sa Kuya niya kaya sinita ito ni Sandro, nakipagbeso ako kina Tita Liz and Tito Bong and I sat beside Tita nalang.

"You don't have motion sickness when you ride a chauffeur, Chan?" Tita asked me so I shake my head. Sanayan lang yan.

"And that means, he'll act stricter than he usually are." saad din ni Simon and he looked at me.


"Chan, my birthday is near. It's next week." Simon told me so Sandro sat beside me, he gave me a bottle of water.


"Don't ask Chantall for expensive gifts." Paalala ni Sandro kay Simon that's why Simon sat in front of me.

"Yes Chan, I hope you can come on his birthday next week. He planned to celebrate it in BGC nalang eh, but you know the Lola. The tradition of Ilocano." Shalla! BGC, ayan ang when. Hahahahaha!


"Yeah! They will put me flower crown in my head, I look like a gay but I'm happy."

"Look who's here, the First Lady of the Philippines and the soon to be First Lady of Ilocos." Lahat kami napalingon and omg! Atty Lazo is here, I know him syempre. FB and Instagram, he's colleagues with Sandro diba.

"Naks! First Lady." Tito Bong said and stared at Tita Liza.

"Atty! Ayy, nandito pala kayo." Pagbabati ni Sandro at nakipagfist bomb.

"Of course, to support my Governor ano." I am just looking at them, it's my first time seeing him talaga.

"By the way, have some seat. And do you know Chantall?" Tita Liz asked Atty Lazo and he looked at me.

"Hi, Sir! Chantall Davis po. It's nice to meet you." I greeted him and we shaked our hands.

"Of course, ang tumapos daw ng pila kay Sandro. Hahahahahah!"

We ate and talk lang as usual, some officials join us naman and after we eat, I asked Sandro if I can go out so that I can talk to the people of Norte, wow!


"Practice-practice na because ikaw ang magiging kasama ni Gov pag may mga ganap." Atty Lazo said. Everyone agreed naman so I smiled at them nalang,


"Don't pressure her about being the First Lady of Ilocos. Governor pa lang naman eh. Pag Mayor nalang si Sandro, doon niyo sabihan na first lady siya." Tita Liz told them because she can see how uncomfortable I am calling the 'First Lady of Ilocos'

"Susunod ako." Sandro said and I get my bag and lumabas na ng hall.

"Hala! Si Chantall!" the teenager said as she saw me, I smiled at her and waved my hand, she went on me and hinawakan agad ang kamay ko.

"Hala! Sobrang idol po kayo ni Mama. Ang galing niyo po umarte eh." she said as we walk papuntang covered court,


"Really? Thank you so much," I sincerely told her. Well, I am always happy and thankful for my supporters as always and her Mom is here kaya pinuntahan muna namin.

Sandro

I am standing in the door and watching Chantall interacting with the people especially to those Seniors right now, she really is so approachable that's why she can easily get the heart of the people, especially her smile. Her cheeks puff everytime she smile that's why I want to see and make her smile.

"I can clearly see how Chantall will be a partner to you. Not just as a wife of yours, but partner in terms of like this. Look oh." I jumped out of shocked because of my Mom  who appeared suddenly in my side so I stared at her and she laughed.

"Oh dear! Ever since I met her, no. Ever since I saw her photos on the internet when the dating rumor about you and Chantall, I can see how kind she is, and she proves me that when I first saw her and meet her. She's so galang, she's so bait. Classy yet bubbly and Son, I know she graduated as Cum Laude. So I'm telling you. Once you waste Chantall, sorry ka nalang. Wala nang ganiyan." Mom told me and lahat naman Sila lumabas na so do I, I went on her and whispered that the program will start.

"Thank you po, enjoy the program po." Chantall bid a temporary goodbye to her newly amigas na. Hahahahaha!

We went in front and we sat in the first row, she sat beside Mom and I sat beside her.

"How are they, is their approach to you was nice?" Mom asked Chantall so she cheerfully nodded to Mommy and smiled.

"Super Tita. They treat me na parang taga dito lang ako. They are still welcoming parang nung first ko lang na dating dito." She answered. I'm glad that everyone loves her how everyone loves my family.

The opening started and there are short messages from the speakers, from my Dad and from the officials before they call me.


"Please welcome, ang pinakagwapo na Congressista ng unang distrito ng Ilocos. Congressman Ferdinand Alexander 'Sandro' Marcos the III." the emcee introduced and everyone clapped their hand.

"Magandang araw po sa lahat. Ahm." panimula ko and most of the teenagers shrieked.


"Kalma lang, nandito ang asawa niyan." the emcee said so Chantall laughed and shake her head to the Emcee. I started talking and giving speech in front of them and they are listening to me, good thing.

"Maraming salamat po, ahm sa pagiging congressista ninyo. Maraming salamat din po sa supporta at tulong na ibinigay ninyo sa akin nung pagtakbo ko noong nakaraan. Hindi lang sa akin, kundi sa aking pamilya. At ngayon, ako po ay bumababa sa pwesto ko bilang congressista sa unang distrito ng Ilocos." I told them and everyone clapped their hands.

I stared at Mommy and Chantall, siguro masaya na si Mommy na may kasama na siyang umiyak sa tuwing nagsasalita ako. Pasimpleng pinupunasan ni Chantall ang luha nito, she smiled and raised her thumbs up on me when she saw me staring at her.

"Ahm. Dahil ako po ay tatakbo bilang Gobernador ng Ilocos Norte. Sana patuloy niyo po akong supportahan sa pagtakbo ko bilang Gobernador ng Ilocos Norte."

"We love you Sandro!" sigaw ng mga kabataan sa likod kaya napapikit nalang ako ng mariin at natawa.

"Alam niyo po ba, noong nakaraan kong inanunsiyo na. ahm. Na tatakbo ako bilang congressista, yung nanay ko lang po ang umiiyak.. Ngayon may dumagdag na isa na umiiyak na sa tuwing nagsasalita ako sa harap. At siya din ang dinagdag na biyaya ng Diyos sa akin. Hindi lang sa akin, kundi sa pamilya ko." humiyaw ang lahat sa sinabi ko at nagpalakpakan.



"Hahahaha! Gusto niyo po sa susunod na pagtungtong ko dito, may idadagdag tayo?" Tanong ko sa kanila at tumawa ako, everyone said yes and nagsipalakpakan ulit 

Hayy! Hahahahahah!

"Sino po ang idadagdag ninyo Cong?" the emcee asked me and I laughed again. Pinanlakihan na ako ng mata ni Chantall at sabay takip ng mukha niya gamit bag, may binulong naman dito si Mommy.


"Si Sandro the fourth." sagot ko at lahat ulit nagsigawan.
