ELLYA
It's been a week since Jean left. Ginawan na lang ni Jessica nang resignation letter si Jean for the sake of formality. We ve been adjusting ourselves since that day. Nagmamadali akong umalis at pinuntahan ang resort and nalingat sina Bill at Dave at ayan na umalis na si Jean. With an email to each of one of us.
Hindi na ako naghahabol. Hindi na rin namin sinubukan i contact lahat ng social medias account. Tila isang malamig na hangin ang nagdaan nang gabing iyon. Nagin tahimik ang bawat isa habang ang event ay patuloy sa pagtugtog ng musika. Ibat iba ang mga iniisip ng bawat isa.
At sa gabing iyon. Tanging paghinga ang sagot namin kay Jeff ng nagmamadali itong dumating kasama si Lim. Sa sobrang tahimik namin hindi namin namalayan na umiiyak na siya. Sa pagkakataon na yun naki simpa

SeventeenELLYASa lahat ng ginagawa ko nagkakape ang sacred. Kumbaga ayoko ng pinapakialaman ako habang ginagawa it at nagdidilim ang paningin ko. Lalo na kung ang mukha ng step sister ko ang makikita ko.She is wearing her gucci bag and a chanel glass . Akala mo naman tunay lahat. Pati ugali fake. She seems not aware of everyone presence na nakatitig sa kanya. Her aura also have this negative feeling."Hey sis." she said."What do you want?" I asked. Hindi na kailangan pang pahabain at nakakapang init ng dugo yang si Sydney. At alam ko na balak nito manghihingi lang ng pera."Lend me your money or else isusumbong kita kay Mama." she said and sat in front of me.

EIGHTEEN ELLYA Our day off comes so fast. I was learning anything that I have to do in order for mycase to go well. I don't want Jeff and Limmuel's works to be wasted. I happily watched myself in the mirror. The glowing face is indeed because of Lim. We did more on our visit in Tagaytay. We do some nasty stuff that we have. I smile wider when I remember that night when he made me feel loved in every inch of my body. So now I'm using a turtle enck to hide those kisses that he left. Kahit kailan talaga yang si Limmuel. "Mahal come down were gonna eat." tawag ni Lim sa kusina. "Okay. I'm coming down." I said and saw him preparing our breakfast.

NINETEENELLYAAll I ever want this shift to be end. Nakakabagot na kumausap sa mga tao na highblood. Sila din naman may kasalanan kung bakit nagkakamali. Minsan hindi nila chinecheck kung tama ba o may something sa nilalagay nila.Katatapos ko lang sa last call ko and sana wala nang sumunod. Hindi ko na alam if may pasensya pa ako na natitira para sa customer na kakausapin ko pag mainit ang ulo na ihaharap sa akin. Kahit sabihin ni Lim na iharap sa kanya hindi ko pa rin pwede gawin at madedetect nang workforce yung ganung set up."Sana naman wala nang tumawag.Hindi ko na alam isasagot ko." bulong ko at nakatingin sa orasan na nakalagay sa buong opisina. Kaya ayokong magsalita ng tapos.Huming

TWENTYELLYAWe are heading to Tarlac to meet my parents. The envelope had a address to where I should meet them.The joy that I felt right now is surreal. I am surrounded by my real family or should I say the one who gave me away. I have this feeling that I feel when I see the results. I am thinking that I am not the real daughter of Ezekiel and Anne. The one who adopted me.My real parents do not own a house. A mansion. You know a movie when you see a mansion. They are technically rich. Rich to the point that they can't find me. My real father has his house inherited to me while my mother Anne disappeared and that's when my father, Ezekiel, marries my aunt and her daughters.Lim seems to

We just letting ourselves to be comfortable.I am not involved so I watched them breathe and sigh."Ellya." Her father called."Yes Dad.""We are sorry if we are late. I know you are confused about us. You're mother and I know about that. All I ever wanted was to be bare with us." Tito Ellizer said."Alam ko naman po iyon Dad. Kasi sobrang naguguluhan na po ako. Hindi ko po alam if anong paniniwalaan ko." Paliwanag ni Ellya.

TWENTY TWOELLYAPauwi na kami ni Limmuel ng maisipan namin na dumaan sa isang fast food. Nakakagutom na makita yung sign board ng mcdo along the NLEX. Anong oras na rin kaya inaya ko na siya.Para sa akin hindi pa malinaw lahat ng pinag usapan dahil masyadong komplikado. Nadala lang ako ng emosyon na makita yung tao sa DNA result na yun pala ang tunay ko na magulang. Akala ko kasama nila si Mama Anne. Yun pala sila lang.I am sad about that thought pero nung nakausap ko sila kahit papaano. Gumaan na rin pakiramdam ko. Kahit yung pangungulila ko bigla kong naramdaman. Akala ko wala ako nun, sa puso ko pala meron."Mahal okay ka lang?" Limmuel asked.I just noticed how Lim

TWENTY THREEELLYAThey all listen to me when I share my stories to them. Even then, I can't believe that I suffered from that kind of thing. They now know why."Then paano si Tita Anne?" Mica asked.I breathe as I answer."I don't know where she is right now. Everything that she does is real. Alam niyo yun, inaalagaan niya ako at kung paano ginagawa ng isang magulang talaga. Lalo na pag nanay.""Then why now?" Tanong din ni Jessica"Alam mo tinanong ko din yan pero they're all complicated. As of now." I answered"You are tough on that Ellya." Bill said.

TWENTY FOURLIMMUEL"Yes. I am your boss. The head of the company. The one who brought this company to life." I said it again and she seems so confused about it.“Lim, let's talk about it when we get home.” she said. “ I am also tired from the confrontation of my parents and this one's gonna add up. I need to have the courage to accept this. So let's get back to work.” she added.I know na na bigla ko siya but I have to tell her hindi pwedeng hahayaan ko na lang. Kailangan I have this courage to tell her the truth and nothing more than it. Mahirap pag sa iba pa manggagaling.“Okay mahal.” I said and hugged her. She seems confused but she also hugged me and that's enough for me.
