CHAPTER 10
Nakakunot ang noo ko nang maingat akong inalalayan ni Hunter pababa ng kanyang sasakyan. Ngunit 'di na rin ako nakaimik at pinabayaan siyang gawin ang gusto niya.
It's not like that I'm really pregnant, right?It just happened one time.The sex, I mean.It just happened one time."Uhmm, Hunt..." I called him."Hmm?""Where are we?" I asked, "And whose house is this?" turo ko sa magarbong bahay sa harap namin.Tinitigan niya ako sandali, "That is m-" he paused, "I mean, our house that we are going to live in..."Is this a joke?Gusto ko iyong sabihin ngunit pinigilan ko ang sarili ko. I just moved in with him just a week ago. Kakatapos ko lang din ayusin ang aking walk-in closet tapos lilipat na rin pala kami rito?As far as I'm concerned this is an exclusive village!This is Bel-Air Village!"If you don't like living here, I have a house in Urdaneta Village..." he saiKaugnay na kabanata

Looming over me was Hunter Grayson Huntington. His aura is domineering. Like a tyrant king.Bumaba ang tingin niya kay Julian na mahimbing na natutulog sa bisig ko. At muling umangat sa lebel ng mata ko."I just asked how you've been and your response is shut the fuck up?" he said in a rather airy voice as he tilt his head to one side and steadied his stare on me with those chartreuse eyes.It's been so long since I last saw those eyes. It brought back so much memories."Momma..." Julian called me.I look down to my sleeping son and with hushed voice I asked, "Yes, baby? What does my baby want?""Milk, momma..." he said and started cooing on my neck.I looked back at Hunter who's staring intently at the sleeping figure of my son."Hunter..." I called him.Nilingon niya ako, "Lola Estrella wants to see our child..." "Hun-"He cut me off, "I spent the last 3 years trying to find you, Julianne." his voice controlled, "I'm not asking this for me, Julianne. I'm begging you. Do this for Lo

The weekend flashed by as quickly as it started and Monday had already creeped in and I'm dreading it. Kailangan kong pumasok at bibisita ulit si Hunter upang makita si Julian.Tulad nang mga nagdaang araw ay darating si Hunter ng alas siete o alas otso ng umaga para saluhan kami ng breakfast at makikipaglaro siya sa anak kong gustung-gusto ang atensyon mula sa kanya. They would start early in the morning and end 2 hours before Julian's bedtime.It had been a routine in a matter of days. Nagsimula akong magluto ng breakfast at dumating si Antonia ng pasado alas sais. I had to start early for I'm cooking for an army!"Bonjour, Madame..." she greeted me when she entered the kitchen.(Good morning, Madame...)"Bonjour, Antonia." I greeted her back and continued swirling the egg on the pan for scrambled eggs.(Good morning, Antonia.)"Madame, il y a beaucoup de gars dehors..." she paused as she peak at the living room, she must've been pertaining the ones at the door, "Du lobby aux banqu

Chills rundown my spine when the cold of Friday morning caught up to me despite the layers of clothes I'm wearing. I slammed the door shut after I've alighted the vehicle. Habang nilalakad ko ang distansya ng parking spot ko papuntang elevator banks ay dinudukot ko ang cellphone mula sa aking bag para matawagan si Antonia upang magbilin.I was in a rush earlier that I missed the chance to mention what's needed to be done at home. Sa totoo lang ay hindi ko naman gustong pumasok sa trabaho ngayon dahil nang umalis ako ng bahay kanina ay malungkot na tinatanaw ako ng anak na may sakit at nakaratay sa kama.Tinipa ko ang numero ni Antonia. Mga ganitong oras ay mukhang naibaba na niya si Julian para sa morning nap nito."Bonjour, Antonia parlant..." sagot ni Antonia.(Hello, Antonia speaking...)"Antonia, voici Julianne," I answered back, "Le médicament de Julian est dans la boît

I arrived ten minutes to 10 o'clock in Resorts World Manila to fetch my boss, Hunter Huntington, from his breakfast meeting. Hinatid siya ng company car kanina dahil nasa car wash pa ang sasakyan nito. He asked me to pick up his car and take it to him in Resorts World.Narating ko ang Impressions kung saan sila nag-breakfast meeting. I already spotted him from where I was. Nahuli rin ng mga mata ko si Mayana Guerrero, his current girlfriend, along with the investor.His green eyes found me standing just outside the restaurant. I smiled mockingly at him. I tapped my watch, showing how impatient I am.They all stood when Hunter stood up. He's wrapping things up. He better be!Pinapanood ko sila habang tinatapos niya ang pakikipag-usap sa investor. Watching Hunter Grayson Huntington do his business like the usual except that today he brought along his girlfriend, that is a known socialite here in

"What do you want for lunch?" tanong sa akin ni Hunter habang nakasunod ako sa kanya. Palingun-lingon pa ako sa aking opisina dahil iniwan ko roon si Macy na malamang sa malamang ay nagpupuyos na iyon sa galit. With Hunter's long strides, I kinda struggled to catch up to him. I'm half jogging by his side just to catch up to him. "I don't know, maybe what's available on the cafeteria..." sagot ko na lang. "What if it's haggis or salad?" I made a face, "Yuck!" "Is steak fine?" he asked, glancing over my way. "It's okay..." I answered, and shrugged, "But I wanted doughnuts..." ngumisi ako at lumapit pa sa kanya, at mapaglarong sinisiko ang kanyang tagiliran. Pansin ko ang tinginan ng mga empleyado sa amin habang naglalakad kami sa hallway. May iba pang empleyado na binabati siya. Hindi na ako

After we had dinner at Popeyes, Hunter took me home. I insisted that I'd take Grab na lang since we lived so far from each other."You should go inside first then I'll leave..." sabi sa akin ni Hunter.Tumango ako, "Thank you, see you tomorrow!" kinawayan ko siya."Shall I fetch you tomorrow?" Hunter asked, even before I could've turn my back from him. Napatitig ako sa kanya sandali bago nailing."Wag na, ihahatid naman ako ni Nicole sa opisina bukas..." sagot ko at kinawayan siya ulit.I waited 'till the growl of his car slowly fades. Alam kong bibilisan niya nang magpatakbo kahit hindi ganoon kaluwag ang kalsada. I'm sure he'd come to his father's house in Ortigas. Harper is a bit of a tattletale, especially that their father favors him more than Hunter himself."I'm home!" sigaw ko habang tinatanggal ang stilletos na suot ko.Dumungaw si Angel, isa sa mga kasama rito sa bahay, na may hawak itong pizza, "Welcome home!""Kain

Saturday came in a daze, Hunter told me last Thursday that it was going to be like the usual. Kaya't naihanda ko na ang luggage na kailangan ko para sa pagpunta namin ng Caribbean pag-uwi ko pa lang nang gabing iyon.Tinulungan pa ako ni Nicole na ihanda ang mga iyon, we made total sure that I will have everything I'll need. Kaya't I have everything covered.Medyo nag-aalala lang ako sa gala night. Hindi ko kasi alam kung magiging maayos iyon tulad noong nakaraang taon o disaster waiting to happen tulad noong unang beses. Ayokong mapahiya si Hunter at ang kanyang Daddy sa mga taong imbitado roon.Nilingon ko ang pintuan nang may kumatok roon. "Bukas 'yan!" sigaw ko.The door opened, it was Sophia, "Julianne, andito na si Fidela para gawin 'yung hair and make up mo." ngumiti si Sophia.With Sophia, we hurried down so I could meet the make up artist that'll prep me up for the gala.
Tell Me You Love Me CHAPTER 05
After the excruciating long-ass flight, Hunter and I arrived at Nassau's Lynden Pindling International Airport at 2:10 pm on the dot. By that time, my head is already pulsing from jet lag. I've been traveling with Hunter from time to time, pero ang jet lag lang ang downside ng lahat.Though I'm kinda happy that Nassau has the sun up and shining. It's beautiful enough that I'm tempted to sunbathe. I'm wishing that I'm under the sun right about now, my skin is covered with sparkly white sand, and later be soaked in the salty blue sea..."Can we swim later?" biglang tanong ko.Hunter glanced at me, "We can swim all day tomorrow, we should rest later..." sagot nito.I chose not to answer. Wala na rin naman akong maisasagot. Since it's Hunter, it's already given that I'm less smart when we're together.Paglabas namin ng arrival gate ay agad kong natanaw ang isang lalaking naka-uniform na may hawak na placard na may pangalan Hunter. I'm looking at the ma
