Chapter VI
Dwight was wearing a blue longsleeve shirt. His hair was neatly brushed. Hindi naman halata sa kanyang nag-handa siya para rito. He brought two bouquet of flowers. He gave the other one to me which I gladly accepted. Dwight's really the type of guy you won't help but to fall in love with him each day.
"You don't need to do this," I said.
"I want to. Besides, I want to get to know your loved ones." Ngumitin siya.
He told me yesterday that he wanted to meet my parents. He wanted to formally introduced himself to them. Daddy went home yesterday so he's here. Minsan uuwi siya rito, minsan uuwi sa babae niya. And what infuriates me is my mommy's letting him do that.
"Are you nervous?" I asked when he held my hand. It was cold and sweat

Foremost Keeper Chapter VII
I stayed the night checking upon Mommy here in the hospital. Although we often fight, she's still my mother. Mothers are incomparable. I love my Mommy and I would never trade her for anything in this world.Dwight wanted to stay here with me but I told him not to. He messaged me a while ago that he'd visit tomorrow.I angrily rose to my feet when I saw my father walking towards me. He still had the guts despite of what he did. I was pretty sure that it was his fault."Why are you here, Dad? Don't tell me you're happy seeing Mommy's condition." I was taken aback when he slapped me. My cheeks stinged. I remained neutral. "Now you're hurting me...""Careful with you words," may pagbabantang sabi niya."Why would I be? With a person like you?" I scoffed. I knew I was being disrespectful but he deserved it after all the havoc he caused! I hate that his blood runs over my system."I hate you, Dad! I hate you!" I yelled. Mas mab

I called Dwight for several times but his phone was off. Hindi kasi ako sanay na hindi siya nagre-reply. He'll alway flood me messages in the morning. I felt my day incomplete. The male professor began writing the lesson for this day. Hindi ko maintindihan ang nasa harap. My thoughts are only filled with my boyfriend. I miss Dwight. "Ynares, Jezrel Tanya." Naputol ako sa aking pag-iisip nang marinig kong tinawag ang pangalan ko. My eyes shifted on him, wondering why she was calling me. "Is Ms. Ynares around?" Kunot noo akong tumingin kay Kiana. "Why is she calling me?" "You are being called in a recitation," she answered. I mentally rolled my eyes. Itinaas ko ang kamay ko.

My lips curled up in both corners when Dwight's name flashed on the screen. I answered the call right away."Hello, babe..." Masiglang bati ko."Babe." Malambing niyang bati sa kabilang linya."What happened to you, Dwight? Bakit hindi ka nagpaparamdam?" may pagtatampong tinig ko."I'm sorry... I got busy with stuffs." I heard him breathed. Napapikit ako nang mariin. Busy? What did he mean?"Saan ka busy?""Babe, kailangan kong mag-pa-good shot sa parents ko. I attended a fare and I wasn't able to bring my phone with me. Sobrang pagod ako." He explained."Maiinitindihan ko naman 'yon, Dwight. You could've atleast told me. Hindi 'yung nangangapa ako kung anong nangyayari sa'yo." I tried my best to muffle a sob. "Hindi ba dapat nag-uupdate ka sa akin? Communication, Dwight. Iyon lang naman ang hinihingi ko sa'yo.""I know, babe. I'm sorry. Kaya nga nakiusap ako kay Asher para sunduin kita."Nanatili akong tahimik par

The next day, I was busy with loads of works to do. Sunod sunod ang pinapaggawa ng mga professors sa iba't-ibang subjects. Hindi ko maatim tingnan 'yung bagong professor namin. He's still creeping me out! He's still giving me meaningful stares. I wanted to tear off his face. Gusto kong sabihin kay Dwight pero ayokong makadagdag ng alalahanin niya.Kiana didn't go to school so I spent my day alone. I would rather go alone rather than associate myself with my classmates.Dwight sent me a message a while ago which made me relieved. Balak ko rin sanang bisitahin siya sa practice niya. Malapit na rin ang championship game. He'll be busier but like what I told him, I'd be supporting him.Dumiretso ako sa cafeteria. After buying my lunch, I looked for an empty table. I was seated near the rowdy crowd of freshmen. They looked carefree. They had this vibrant energy which I envy. Ganyan din ako dati noong mga panahong hindi pa busy sa pag-aaral."OMG fr
Foremost Keeper Chapter XI
Kinuha ko ang phone ko sa ibabaw ng drawer ko sa kwarto saka nagtipa ng mensahe.Ako:Thank you so much, Asher. Thank you. Drive safely.Hindi ko alam kung ano ang pumasok sa isipan ko. I was just so curious. That's it. I searched for Asher's account in the facebook but I don't know his surname. Hindi na ako nagtangka pang hanapin pa ang pangalan niya. I was about to log out when I saw my friend request. I blinked, trying to process what I've seen.Seryoso?It was a friend request from Asher. So, his full name's Asher Geoff Guevarra. I clicked his profile. His picture screams that he's a bad boy at first glance. Nakaupo siya sa may court suot ang kanyang basketball jeans. Ang kamay niya'y parehong nasa likuran. His arms were flexed and bulging. Any woman would be smitten by the facial features he holds. Right. He's got the face but the attitude, nakaka-turn off.Nakita ko pa ang number ng followers n'ya. They were thousands of them. Sikat di
Foremost Keeper Chapter XII
The next day, I forwarded the photos to our dean and the school's president. She wanted the evidence. So, I gave her it.Paano kung ganoon din ang mangyari sa anak n'yang babae? Paano rin kung ibang kababaihan ay mas malala pa ang naranasan kaysa sa akin? Si Kiana na malapit sa akin ay nagawan ng kahayupan ng lalaking 'yon. Paano ang iba na paulit-ulit ding nakakaranas ng pang-aabuso mula sa kalalakihan? At, ang mas masahol pa rito ay kaya pa nilang magising araw-araw aninmo'y walang ginawang kasalanan.Hindi lang iisa ang biktima niya. At nakakalungkot isipin na kung sino pa ang tinitingalaan ng iba ay ganito kasahol. I was even thinking to post the photos anonymously in the facebook but I thought that would be too much.Sinama ko na rin si Sir Ramos. I posted on our school's freedom wall and there were a lot of students who also complained. The news sparked like a wild fire in the campus. Everyone wasn't expecting that to happen. Pagbabayaran niya ang gi
Foremost Keeper Chapter XIII
"I told you that you are not a bother. Stop opposing me and get in the car." He ordered. “Tsaka malabo na hindi tayo magkita, Jezrel. Girlfriend ka ng kaibigan ko. We will always bump to each other no matter what.”We were now at his car and nobody spoke. Napansin ko namang hindi kami patungo sa daan papunta sa amin."Where are we going?" Hindi siya sumagot. "Asher, I asked you, where are we heading to?""You'll see.” My forehead knitted in confusion. Hindi ko talaga maisip kung paano sila naging mag-kaibigan ni Dwight. One is playful, the other one is as cold as ice."You really don't want to stay with me, right?" Tumingin ako sa kanya."Hindi naman. I mean.. Uhh..–" The hell, Jezrel. Why can't you compose yourself?"I understand. I am not someone who's easy to deal with. But, you only see a part of me but not the whole me."&n
Foremost Keeper Chapter XIV
"Ako na." Pinigilan ko ang kamay ni Asher nang akma niyang babayaran ang iced coffee. I don't want to owe him another favor."No. Ako na. You went all the way here, ito na lang kahit papaano pambayad ko." Kontra niya pa."But I don't want you paying for me.""Then you'll pay next time. Okay na?"I pouted before I nodded. "Okay."After he found a seat for us, we settled there. Humigop ako ng iced coffee saka umiwas ng tingin. What would I be telling him of the reason why I was here? Hindi ko naman puwedeng sabihing naligaw din ako tulad ng parati niyang sinasabi. Gosh. Hindi ko rin maintindihan sarili ko."You okay?" he asked. Inangat ko ang ulo ko saka tumango. "You should've texted me that you'll go here.""Ano namang masama kung pumunta ako rito? Besides, I want to roam around your university, too. Saka, gusto kong makita ang mga iskolar ng bayan. I am not here for you." I almost scoffed with my words. Hindi ko alam kung kapani-pani
