"What the heck Bella ?! Where have you been! Bakit ngayon ka lang, my gosh! The   last time I checked ang simula ng trabaho  natin ay alas otso ng umaga at hindi alas nuebe! Kung kailan kailangan kita ay saka ka naman nawawala! I've been calling you and texting you like a million time but nothing, not even a single hi or hello akong natanggap! What is happening and what is wrong to the  brightest, the smartest at ang pinakamaagang empleyado na darating sa kumpanya tuwing may pasok na kulang na lang ay dito na matulog at minsan naisip ko pa na hindi ikaw  isa sa marketing strategist kundi security guard dahil sa  maaga pa ay nandito ka na--" 

"And why are you laughing? Mga intribida kayo, balik na kayo sa cubicle ninyo?!" Tumigil sa paglakad  ng paroon at parito ang aming  Manager ng Marketing Department at  hinarap ang mga kasamahan namin na nagtawanan. Kahit na ako ay napangiti  sa kaniyang huling linya. Sa sulok ng aking bibig ay pinipigilan ko na bumunghalit ako ng tawa dahil  sa kaniyang hitsura na  hindi  ma drawing. I quickly glanced away ng muli  niya akong  tinapunan ng tingin. 

"Well?" Stomping his feet he  said." Care to explain?" His arms crossed as he raised his brow. 

"I'm sorry.." I said,  staring back at him.  Close kami ni Mr Val Asunción. Personal niya akong nagustuhan bilang empleyado dahil gaya nga ng speech niya kani-kanina lang, employee of the year ako kadalasan dahil sa sipag at sa tagumpay ng mga strategies namin sa marketing. Pero, hindi ko naman inaabuso ang  closeness namin dahil work is work. Outside the company? Well,  we laughed, we cried and we did silly things, dahil gaya ni sir bakla, breadwinner din siya ng  kaniyang pamilya kaya kami magkasundo. Ano kaya ang pakiramdam nito pag malaman na nagwalwal ako kagabi at--umiling ako at winaksi ang nangyari kagabi. 

"Just like that? Sorry?!  Alam mo bang magsisimula na ang presentation sa conference room--oh my God!" He screamed after checking the time on his wristwatch. "It's 9: 30!!' the CEO will be here any moment now! O baka nasa conference room na iyon!!" Hinila niya ang aking braso, "Come to my office." 

"Oouchh.. dahan-dahan naman reklamo ko sa kaniya dahil bigla akong napatayo ng hablutin niya ang braso ko. "Para akong mahihilo.." 

"Shut up! Hindi ka si mama Mary para mabuntis ng Espiritu Santo no, paano ka mabuntis wala ka namang boyfriend since birth! Naku..paano ba ito malilintikan tayo nito. Alam mo namang hindi ako nag prepare,  sa iyo ko talaga ipinagkatiwala ang report at presentation dahil alam mo namang wala ako sa kumpanya last week--" 

"Yeah,  because you were chasing boys.." I smirked at him. 

Pinandilatan niya ako ng mata, "Hoy! baka nakalimutan mo na ikaw ang issue rito ha? Huwag  kang umismid, baka nakalimutan mo  late ka ngayon!" Inirapan ako ni Val. 

I sigh leaning  on the seat in front of him. I put my laptop on his desk and open it. Kahit hinila niya ako,I didn't forget to grabbed my laptop. "Relax, I already  prepared the presenttation--' 

"You did?!" Kumislap kaagad ang mga mata ng backlesh. 

"Masyado ka kasing oa. I was late because..I, I unintentionally deleted the file...inayos ko muna, may back up naman ako.." I stuttered and lied not looking at him. Alam ko kasi na pagkatapos ng meeting ay kukulitin ako nito kung bakit ako late.  "And hindi porke mahihilo ay buntis kaagad!" I roll my eyes. 

"Bakit naman hindi ka kaagad nagsalita kanina?" Muli itong tumayo sa swivel chair at nakahawak sa kaniyang beywang habang nag state of the nation o SONA   na naman ito. "Alam mo bang na stress na ako, kanina pa, actually kagabi pa! Why you didn't even checked your phone!" 

"Hindi ba magsisimula na ang meeting? Come on, or perhaps you're going to check my work--" 

"That's fine..let's go. " Val grab his coat on the rack, sinuot niya ito at tiningnan ang kaniyang hitsura sa  desk mirror. A blush crept on his face. "Hmnn, do I look fine?" He asked. 

"More than fine , you look better actually." 

"Do I look pretty?" 

I almost laughed at him." Beautiful."  Kung naging babae lang itong si Val, maraming lalaki ang  mahuhumaling sa ganda nito. At kung hindi lang ito bakla, maraming babaeng  magkandarapa sa kaniya.

"Hindi na ba ako mukhang stress?" 

"You look perfect.." 

Matalim niya akong tinitigan. "Hoy, Bella Cleopatra, akala mo ay hindi ko gets ang ginagawa mo ha, niloloko mo lang ako para makalimutan kong i-ni- ignore mo ako kagabi, humanda ka pagkatapos ng meeting! Let's go!" 

"Aray ko!" Hinawakan kong mabuti ang laptop  para hindi mahulog. 

"Why you seems so clumsy and mukhang pagod na pagod ka  yata? Nag da drugs ka ba? Or naki pag s*x ng  ilang rounds?" Tinaasan niya ako ng kilay habang pumasok na kami ng elevator, mabuti na lang at walang ibang tao sa loob maliban sa amin. 

"Eww, ang bunganga mo! Ang bastos talaga ng bunganga  mo no, palibhasa ay gawain mo!"  I fired back without looking at him. I'm guilty as charged, not in drug but in s*x. 

"Hmm, hindi mo pa kasi natikman kaya kung maka eww ka riyan, wagas. Hmpt. I assure you Bella darling, once  na matikman mo ang sarap ng  s*x, hay naku..titirik ang iyong mata at makalimutan mo ang iyong pangalan habang naninigas ka sa sar--" 

"Oh, my God! Shut up!" Lumunok ako ng laway as I refused to entertain the thought of last night. Bull, hindi na nawala sa isip ko ang hitsura ng lalaking kaniig ko kagabi. Loud and clear narinig ko ang kaniyang mga daing  habang nilamukos ang aking-- shit! 

Val  laughed. "Why are you affected? And you're blushing, Bella.." he stated. 

"Ewan ko sa iyo, masamang impluwensya ka talaga sa akin bakla ka!"  Nauna na akong lumabas ng elevator. Nang makarating na kami sa 10th floor kung saan nandoon ang office ng CEO at ang katabi nitong conference room ay natigilan si bakla

"Shit!" Val exclaimed. 

"Nakalimutan ko ang mahalagang documents na pinapahanda ng  bagong CEO, mauna ka ng pumasok okay, susunod na lang ako--" 

"But--" 

"Anong but? You will be the one presenting the report  in front of the CEO  and to everyone present in the conference room, oh come on, Bella." Tinaas na naman ni Val ang kaniyang mahiwagang kilay.

"Dati mo ng ginagawa ito kahit sa naunang CEO pa, bakit parang nag-aatubili ka, and I thought you are ready?" He regarded me with a scowl. 

Bwesit na baklang ito, reklamo ko sa    aking sarili. Bakla kasi ang apo ni Don  Serafin Blackwood, kaya gusto ko kasama ang aking manager para sa good impression. 

I pushed the door open and I was shocked to see the  seats of the oval table. It was already  occupied except for the two vacant seats  next to the  Chief Executive Officer, who is standing mighty and godly handsome 

My heart stop beating as our eyes meet and my knees  almost dropped  as I saw a smirked of recognition at the tip of his mouth. It was him! The stranger of last night!

    CHAPTER 297 :FINALE - STARS AT STARRY NIGHT FARM Four Years LaterPagkapark ni Alexander ng itim na Bentley sa harap ng main gate ng Starry Night Farm House, dalawang maliit na anino na ang tumatakbo na palabas ng pintuan. "Daddy!" "Daddy!!" Sabay na sumalubong sa kanya sina Elijah at Amara. Limang taong gulang na sila ngayon. Parehong may buhok na kasing itim ni Alexander at mga matang kasing talim, pero kay Bella nakuha ang ngiti. "Where’s my pasalubong?" sabay na tanong ng kambal, sabay dukot sa brown paper bag sa passenger seat. Nakaugalian na nila 'to. Tuwing uuwi si Alexander galing sa kumpanya, may dala siyang "treasure" minsan chocolate, minsan libro, minsan laruan, stuffed toys, minsan bato lang na nakuha niya sa garden ng office. Para lamang hindi siya tatarayan at susungitan ng kambal kapag wala siyang maibigay.Binuhat ni Alexander si Amara sa isang braso at si Elijah sa kabila. "Greedy twins," biro niya habang pinapalo ng halik ang magkabilang pisngi nila. "M

    One week after the burialPinagmasdan nina Alexander at Bella sina Amara at Elijah sa kanilang crib habang sila ay mahimbing na natulog. "Naalala mo ang pinag-usapan natin sa hospital?" inakbayan ni Alexander si Bella. Nanatili silang nakatayo sa crib ng kambal. "Yes.." Bella saod softly, sumandal ng bahagya kay Alex. Dalawang linggo na ang nakaraan matapos ang malagim na krinen na ginawa ni Cherry. Sa wari niya ay nasa loob pa din ng nursery si Cherry, standing and screaming like a maniac. Kaya mga hindi maatim ni Bella na ibalik ang crib, kama, toys at mga gamit ng kambal sa nursery. Sa kanilang kwarto na natutulog ang kambal, inilipat nina Bella lahat ng gamit sa nursery sa kanilang silid. “I don’t want the twins to grow up in a house with that memory. I don’t want us to. we have to leave,” Alex decided. Parang sagot naman sa isip ni Bella ang sinabi ng asawa. “Pansamantala. We go to Starry Night Farm. Malayo. Tahimik. Wala masyadong tao. Just us, the twins." isinaalang-

    One week later. The sky was gray, but it wasn’t raining. In the backyard of the Blackwood estate, behind the old oak trees, was the family’s private cemetery and garden of grace. White marble headstones. Fresh flowers. A small stone chapel. Today, two new graves were dug side by side. Lourdes Blackwood and Jacob Blackwood. Black and white photos of them stood on an easel — Lourdes smiling with her faith and heirloom necklace, Jacob with his glasses and his old book in hand. The whole family was there. Patrick and Paula, holding each other. Ang kambal na anak nina Lourdes at Jacob. Alexander and Bella, with the twins in their arms. Holly and Alvin, ang pinsan nina Paula at Patrick. Mga pamangkin ni Jacob Blackwood. Matalik na kaibigan at itinuturing na pinsan ni Alexander Rossi Blackwood. Cousins. Aunts. Uncles. The remaining staff. Even a few police officers stood at a distance, out of respect. There was no music. Only the sound of wind through the trees and

    The ambulance sirens cut through the rain. Alex rode beside Bella’s stretcher, his hand never leaving hers. Her skin was still cold. Her breathing was shallow. The paramedic kept saying “Overdose. Tranquilizer. High dosage.” “Will she be okay?” Alex asked, voice breaking. “We caught it early, sir. Four hours. That’s the window. If it was longer…” The paramedic didn’t finish. Four hours. That was how long the drug was meant to be. Four hours between life and death. At the hospital, doctors pumped Bella’s stomach, gave her IVs, monitored her vitals. She was treated for shock. The twins were checked and cleared — dehydrated and terrified, but physically okay. It was past midnight when the doctor came out and said the words Alex had been praying for: “She’s stable. The drug will wear off in a few hours. She’s going to make it. And the children are fine.” Alex broke down right there in the hallway. Not loud. Just his shoulders shaking as he sank to the floor. At 4:17 A

  • FORBIDDEN PASSION    Chapter 293: The Secret Door

    The gate of Blackwood Mansion was already open when Alex arrived. Three police cars, two ambulances, and a crowd of neighbors stood behind the yellow tape. The rain from earlier left the driveway wet and reflective, like the whole place was crying. Alex stepped out of the car. His shoes made no sound. His hands were shaking. The horror of the situation hit him before he even reached the door. The smell of iron and blood was already in the air, carried by the wind. “Mr. Blackwood! Sir, hindi ka pa po pwedeng pumasok—” “Where is my wife? Where are my children?” Alex’s voice was low. Dead. Hindi pinansin ang instruction ng authority. Para siyang nakalutang sa limbo ng kawalan. His body refused to feel. His mind refused to understand. The policemen looked at each other. No one answered. Inside, the mansion looked like it was ransacked by a storm. Chairs overturned. Glass shattered. Footprints in blood leading from the hallway to the kitchen. The police had tried to penetr

    Alexander’s POV 6:42 PM. Dilaw ang ilaw ng dashboard. 80 km/h. Anniversary namin ngayon ni Bella. Ika- anim na taon. Naaalala ko pa yung araw na ‘yon. Mainit. Nagmamadali kami pareho. Hindi grand. Walang tao. City Hall lang. Tapos dinner sa maliit na Italian restaurant na laging binabaha. Sabi niya sa akin nung gabi na ‘yon: "Hindi ko kailangan ng bongga, Alex. Ikaw lang." Ito rin amg mga panahon na masyado pamg complicated ang aming sitwasyon. Pero, hanngang ngayon, kahit okay na kaming dalawa, parati kaming sinusundan ng trahedya. I sighed deeply.At ngayon, ay may kambal na anak na kami at maraming bagay na kaming nalampasan sa mundong ito. And I prayed to God to bless us even more and drained the curse that befalls our family. Kinuha ko ang phone para tawagan sana siya pero to my dismay, patay na ang phone ko. Black screen. Shit. Nakalimutan ko kasing mag charge bago umalis. Napapikit ako. Iniisip ko si Bella ngayon. Iyong lambing niya kanina. Hindi niya a
