Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 57: Reclaiming Life
I was done letting other people write my story.Sa loob ng maraming taon, iginapang ko ang sarili ko para lang patunayan ang halaga ko sa pamilyang meron ako. I molded myself into someone acceptable. Hanggang sa tuluyan ko nang malimutan kung sino talaga ako bago ako nilamon ng galit at pangangailangan ng pagmamahal.But sitting in the lounge of a building in Makati, staring at the blueprints laid out on the glass table, I finally felt grounded.A creative and talent studio. My own space.Isang lugar kung saan pwedeng hubugin ang mga umuusbong na visual artists, casting talents, at creatives nang walang halong pamumulitika o panghahamak ng mga nakatataas. A studio built on raw talent, passion, and genuine dignity."You don't need to rent this floor," marahang boses ni Santiago mula sa likuran ko.Naramdaman ko ang paglapat ng baba niya sa balikat ko habang pumalibot ang mga braso niya sa bewang ko. He looked down at the floor plans, his chest warm against my back."Just buy the entire
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 56: Going Home
Kinabukasan, mas magaan na ang pakiramdam ko.Hindi man tuluyan na nawala ang sakit sa buong katawan ko, but the suffocating knot inside my chest from yesterday's breakdown had finally loosened. My lower abdomen still felt sore, and the doctor had repeatedly reminded me that I needed to take things very slowly. No stress. No unnecessary physical activity. At higit sa lahat, strict bed rest.Nakahiga ako sa hospital bed habang nakatingin sa labas ng bintana nang marinig ko ang mahinang pagbukas ng pinto."Good morning."Napalingon ako.Santiago walked inside carrying a small paper bag in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. He had replaced his rumpled clothes from yesterday with a fresh white shirt, though the faint shadows under his dark eyes betrayed how little sleep he actually had."What's that?" tanong ko.He raised the paper bag slightly. "Breakfast. For you."Napatingin ako sa tapat ng kape na hawak niya sa kabilang kamay. "And that's yours?""Obviously."Napakunot ang noo
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 55: To Love Me Too
"I hope that's the last time you ever lay a hand on her, Mr. Alcaraz."Saka lang ako nahimasmasan nang marinig ang boses ni Santiago mula sa pinto. Dahan-dahan kong inangat ang ulo ko.He stood at the doorway, his jaw clenched as he stared directly at my father. "You're still her father, so I've shown you respect." He took one slow step into the room. "But don't make the mistake of thinking that gives you the right to hurt her."Saglit na nanatiling walang imik si Dad bago niya inayos ang pagkakatayo niya. The anger that had consumed his face moments ago slowly faded the moment he faced Santiago.Tumikhim si Dad. "This is a family matter, Santiago."Santiago's expression remained calm. "Then I won't interfere with whatever you need to discuss as a family." But he took another step inside. "But the moment you put your hands on her, it stopped being just a family matter."Nakita ko ang bahagyang pag-igting ng panga ni Daddy. "I… I just lost my temper.""I understand." The calmness in Sa
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 54: To Earn Love
Ang unang bagay na naramdaman ko ay ang bigat ng buong katawan ko.Parang pagod na pagod bawat buto sa katawan ko. My head felt heavy, my throat was painfully dry, and there was a dull, aching pain deep in my lower abdomen.Dahan-dahan kong iminulat ang mga mata ko.I saw white ceiling, white walls, and the faint, sterile smell of antiseptic. I instantly knew I was at the hospital kaya bigla akong kinabahan.Napahawak ako sa tiyan ko, ngunit bago pa tuluyang makapangibabaw ang takot, narinig ko ang mahinang beep ng monitor sa tabi ko.I turned my head toward it. "My baby..." paos kong bulong."You're awake."Napatigil ako. Hindi si Santiago ang boses na iyon kaya dahan-dahan akong napalingon sa kabilang bahagi ng silid.Nandoon si Mommy, nakaupo sa maliit na sofa malapit sa bintana. Her usually neat appearance was slightly disheveled, her face pale and tired as if she hadn't slept.Katabi niya si Dad. Nakatayo ito, his arms crossed over his chest, staring at me with an unreadable expr
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 53: Last Meeting
"There," the doctor said softly, pointing at the screen. "That tiny flicker right there... that's your baby."And then, a loud, rapid sound echoed inside the room.Napatigil ang paghinga ko. It was fast, strong, and unmistakably alive.Napatingin ako sa monitor.Biglang nanginig ang mga labi ko. All this time, I thought of this pregnancy as a secret I needed to hide, a shield against my family, or a truth that could break me. Pero nang marinig ko na naman ang tumitibok na buhay sa loob ko, biglang nawalan ng halaga ang lahat ng iyon.This was my baby.Hindi ko namalayang tumulo na pala ang mga luha sa gilid ng mga mata ko. A warm hand gently wiped them away.Nilingon ko si Santiago. He was staring at the monitor, his dark eyes were also glossy with unshed tears as he looked at the small flickering light."That's your baby's heartbeat, Mr. Vega," the doctor smiled softly. "Everything looks healthy and strong."Santiago swallowed hard as he slowly dropped his gaze to me. "Listen to that
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 52: My Child, Our Child
"Where is my sister, Santiago?" tanong ko nang pareho na kaming kalmado.He just sighed like he has no plans to answer my query."Tell me!" I urged."Baby—"Mabilis na umiling ako. "Don't baby me. Kung gusto mong paniwalaan kita, you'll tell me where she is."Santiago took a few heavy breaths. Pinagmasdan niya ako ng ilang saglit. His dark eyes were searching my face as if weighing whether I was ready to handle whatever truth he was holding back."She's safe," he said quietly. "I placed her somewhere Vittorio's men can't easily reach.""Saan, Santiago?" hindi na ko nagpigil. "Huwag mo akong daanin sa paulit-ulit na salita. Saan naroroon ang kapatid ko?"He took another step toward me. Hindi ako gumalaw, kahit na ang bawat paglapit niya ay parang nagpapasikip sa buong silid."Cebu,"he revealed, his jaw moved. "She's in Cebu."Halos manlambot ang tuhod ko. Vittorio was right but I want to know…
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 4: Unexpected Lunch
I was doing a few more lapses nang biglang mag-ring ang phone ko. Umahon ako kasabay nang paglingon ni Santi sa akin. I threw him a what-look, then headed to the lounger to see the caller.Si Zsa-zsa ‘yon. I’m sure she saw my post kaya panay ang tawag niya. I really meant to ignore her, but she kep

Nakailang ikot na ako sa harap ng salamin para i-check ang suot kong two-piece tangerine bikini. It was vibrant, perfectly hugging every curve in the right places. Nang makontento ako ay agad kong kinuha ang printed cover-up ko saka mabilis na lumabas ng suite.I was heading to the elevator when I
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 2: The Invitation
Masigla at agad akong sumalampak ng upo sa tabi ni Sera sa paborito naming café. She made a face as she glanced at me, her eyes lingering for a second too long before she slid a simple white envelope across the table.Mas lalong nagliwanag ang ekspresyon ko. Hindi ko na napigilan ang sarili ko. “Go
Bianca: The Kingpin's Dirty Little Secret Kabanata 1: The Chase
“For the nth time, I refuse your request.”Tumikhim ang kaharap kong sekretarya at saka umupo nang maayos. “End of quote. ‘Yan po mismo ang sinabi ni Mr. Vega, Miss Ylondra.”Tumaas ang kilay ko nang mapagmasdan ang nanginginig na paghawak at pag-aayos ni Jea sa hawak niyang files. Even his secreta
