--- -Mainland, China- Isang babae ang nasa kwarto at binibihisan ang kaniyang anak na lalaki ng napatigil sila pareho dahil narinig nila ang kakaibang tunog na galing sa labas. Sa kaba ng babae ay ni-locked niya ang pinto, at saka hinarap ang kaniyang anak. "兒子,聽我說。 你走進櫃子裡面。 在壞人離開之前不要出去。 好的。 不要發出任何噪音,否則他們可能會把你帶走。 我現在會給你的父親和祖母打電話,讓他們知道這裡發生了什麼事。" (Son, listen to me. You go inside the cabinet. Do not go out until the bad guys leave. Okay. Do not make any noise or they might take you away. I will call your father and grandmother now to let them know what's happening here.) Sabi ng babae sa anak niya in a calm tone. Napatungo ang batang lalaki, at pinapasok na ng nanay ang anak niya sa isang cabinet para doon ay magtago habang siya ay nanatiling nakatayo sa gitna ng kwarto. Kinuha niya ang phone niya at tinawagan ang asawa niya, pero hindi ito sumasagot. Tinawagan din niya ang mother-in-law niya, pero wala rin. Gumalaw ang balikat niya nang nagulat siya dahil biglang may kumalampag ng pinto na ikinabahala niya. Dahil dito ay dali-dali niya tinext ang asawa at mother-in-law niya, at nagtago siya sa ilalim ng kama. Samantala ang batang lalaki ay tahimik na nakaupo sa loob ng cabinet, at napagalaw din ang kaniyang balikat ng marinig niya na biglang bumukas ang pinto ng kwarto ng malakas. Then, narinig niya ang boses ng nanay niya na tumili, na naging dahilan kung bakit napahawak siya sa pinto ng cabinet, pero nang maalala niya ang sabi nito kanina ay inaalis niya ang kamay niya at nanahimik na lang. "Where's the child?" tanong ng malaking lalaki habang hawak ang leeg ng babae, in a mandarin language. "He's not here. I am the only one here," matapang na sagot ng babae, in mandarin, na pilit inaalis ang kamay nito sa leeg niya dahil namimilipit na siya sa sakit, hindi na siya makahinga. "Tell me where he is!" galit na sambit ng lalaki, at lalo hinigpitan ang sakal niya rito. "H-he we-went out," pagsisinungaling ng babae na lalo hindi makahinga. "Good. So, he won't see your death. After you, I'll find him and kill him too. Your bloodline ends today," pananakot ng lalaki sa babae, at kinuha niya ang baril niya na pinutok niya sa ulo nito. Sa lakas ng tunog ng baril ay napalaki ng mata ang batang lalaki mula sa loob ng cabinet. Pilit niya pinipigilan ang humikbi dahil kung hindi ay makikita siya ng lalaki, pero hindi niya mapigilan ang kaniyang mga mata na maluha dahil sa sinapit ng kaniyang ina. Binato ng malaking lalaki ang babae sa sahig na wala ng buhay, at saka siya tumingin sa paligid at ng wala siyang makita na trace ng bata ay lumabas na siya ng kwarto. Ganunpaman, hindi pa lumabas ang bata sa cabinet tulad ng sabi sa kaniya ng nanay niya. Lumipas ang ilang oras ay nanatili lang siya sa loob kahit na init na init na siya. Pero nagising siya nang marinig niya ang tunog ng pulis, at doon na siya lumabas at kaagad na tumakbo sa nanay niya na patay na. Bumukas naman ang pinto ng kwarto at pumasok ang pulis na nakita ang bata na umiiyak habang hawak ang nanay nito. Then, pumasok din ang isang lalaki na nakasuot ng office attire at nakita niya ang kaniyang mahal na asawa sa sahig na patay na. Pareho sila umiyak. Matapos ang insidente ay kinamuhian ng tatay ang anak niyang lalaki kahit na wala naman ito ginawa, at dahil wala na nag-aalaga rito ay kinuha ito ng grandmother niya, na nanay ng tatay niya. == "And our Summa cum laude for this year is no other than, Aida Salazar Paris! She also received the best Excellence Academic Award, the best Captain Volleyball player, the best Swimming Athlete, the best Math and Science Wizard as she gave an honor to our prestigious school for the first time again after a decade. Please let's all give her a round of applause! Congratulations," the woman announced cheerfully, and clapped her hands vigorously. A pretty, skinny, has curly hair, has 5 feet and 3 inches tall, and white woman went up to the stage after her name was called upon, and she received a lot of medals with certificates. Whilst, ang tinuring niyang parents na sina Mr. and Mrs. Paris are also clapping to the audience area, meanwhile, their younger daughter was not happy with her elder sister's achievements, and just clasped her hand across her chest as she got jealous of her. Afterward, all the graduate students went to the nearby bar to celebrate, including Aida who keeps dancing with her friends at the dance floor. However, the same woman from a while back is glaring at her non stop that she evilly put a special pill to a glass with wine, and she mixed it. She smiled first before approaching Aida, and she stopped her from dancing just to talk to her. "Ate, Ate!" she shouted, calling Aida. "Oh, Lian. Is everything alright?" Aida asked curiously and innocently. "Yes, of course! No worries, Ate! I'm good! Nga pala, I got you a drink! Come on, drink some at alam ko masaya ka ngayong araw dahil ikaw ang Summa cum laude sa batch niyo! Ang galing-galing mo! The best Ate ka talaga!" Lian yelled due to the loud music around them, and cheering for her elder sister. "Sure! It's once in a lifetime anyway! Give it to me!" Aida screamed merrily, at kinuha niya ang inumin sa kamay ng kapatid niya. Nilaklak niya ng isang tunggaan ang alak na binigay nito, na naging dahilan naman kung bakit napangiti ng malawak si Lian sa harap nito as her plan worked just right. Eventually, habang nagsasayaw si Aida ay napatigil siya dahil bigla siya nahilo na ikinabahala ng kaniyang mga kaibigan. They helped her get up when Lian got in between, and took her elder sister. "Lasing na siya! Don't worry I'll take care of her! Uuwi na kami! See you around again!" masayang sambit ni Lian sa mga kaibigan ng Ate niya, at pinulupot niya ang kamay nito sa leeg niya para mabuhat niya siya mag-isa. Hindi naman na nakielam ang mga kaibigan ni Aida dahil kilala nila si Lian na kababatang kapatid nito kaya hinayaan na nila siya, at hindi na tinanong pa. Palabas na naglakad ng bar si Lian bitbit ang kaniyang nakatatandang kapatid, at mabilis na pumara ng taxi. "Sa malapit na hotel po tayo, Manong," wika ni Lian, at tumingin siya sa kapatid na may masamang balak. Pagkarating sa hotel ay inalalayan ni Lian ang kapatid hanggang sa makarating sila sa isang room, at doon ay inilapag niya siya sa malambot na kama. "Wow. What a good piece of meat," sambit ng matabang lalaki at the end of the bed habang pinagmamasdan ang babaeng walang malay sa harap niya na parang pagkain. "Ikaw na bahala sa kaniya. At bago tayo magkalimutan, bayad mo," singil ni Lian sa lalaki na inilahad ang kaniyang kamay sa gitna nila tulad ng pinag-usapan nila. "Of course, Lian. Ikaw pa ba?" tumatawang aniya ng lalaki, at binigyan niya siya ng maraming pera. "Nice. O siya, sa'yo na siya. Wala na ako pakialam sa kaniya," nakangiting komento ni Lian matapos makuha ang pera na bayad sa kaniya, at iniwan na niya ang dalawa sa kwarto. Walang bahid ng kunsensya ay pumasok si Lian sa elevator, at pagkarating niya sa ground floor ay napahinto siya dahil nakasalubong niya ang isang matangkad na may kataasan na 6 feet, maputi, mayroon bad boy look, at matipunong lalaki na kaagad niya hinangaan. Natulala siya sa kaniya ng sandali, pero bumalik siya sa sarili niya nang pumasok ito at tumayo sa harap niya. Magsasara na ulit ang pinto ng elevator nang pigilan niya siya, at saka siya lumabas para magpatuloy sa gagawin pa niya. Itutuloy...Mainland, China Robert was seriously looking at his phone whereas the picture of his nephew and his wife with their gender reveal pictures. Then, Li Zhi arrived that she immediately noticed her husband at the living area, who is quietly sitting on the couch. "What are you looking at, and you seems serious?" she asked, at lumapit siya sa kaniya. "Is that your nephew and his wife? She's pregnant?" nagulat na aniya, at naupo siya sa armrest ng couch beside him. "Would you sit down properly?" masungit na sabi ni Robert sa asawa niya. "What? I'm sitting properly here," mabilis niyang sagot, defensively. But, he just glared at her until she groaned and she went to the big couch. Robert then cleared his throat before opening his mouth again. "Get ready because we're going to visit them," he told, at tinago na niya ang phone niya. "What? Why?" "What do you mean why? I want to see my son," he answered coldly. "Robert, he already knows the truth about his real father. There's n
KEVINs Her eyes are really gorgeous. I could gaze at her all day. And because she's not moving, I took that chance to moved closer to her. Leaving at least 2 inches gap between us. God, I want to kiss her. "Look, I know that I'm on your bad side right now because of what I did but, I promised you that I'm gonna make it up to you. That was really absent minded of me for ignoring you and our baby. It will never happen again, I swear. Tell me, what do you want me to do for you to come back to me again?" I sincerely said. We stayed silent for a couple of minutes while gazing at each other. "I need you to report everything to me that bothers you. I want to be present beside you when you need a companion just like you always say to me. I need you to trust me fully without any secrets," she enunciated loud and clear. "I can do that. Wherever I'll go, you'll go," I replied from the bottom of my heart, at nilapit ko pa ng husto ang mukha ko sa kaniya that our noses touched each ot
SHE growled under her throat while trying to flee from her husband's kisses, pushing his chest, and struggling him. But, he didn't stop and deepened his kisses more because of jealousness he is having. He, then, grabbed her both wrists, and pinned her against his car. Her eyes widened because of his aggressiveness and so to stop him, she bitten his lip. "The heck," reklamo ni Kevin na napahawak sa labi niya, at nakita niya na nagdudugo ito. He glared at her. "Stop kissing me. I told you already, we're done!" she angrily yelled, at inirapan niya siya bago siya humakbang paalis. But then, he pulled her arm, and she pushed her against the car again, cornering her. "And, I told you we're not," he seriously declared while staring at her eyes. A moment of silence poured in the atmosphere while they're gazing at each other. "Tell me, what do I have to do for you to come back to me?" he questioned without leaving eyesight. "There's nothing you can do anymore. I already made up my mind.
"None of your business," mataray na replied ni Atasha, at humakbang siya ulit to go inside the office.But then again, he blocked her way so, he could talk to her. "Aren't you really going to talk to me?" seryosong tanong niya na hinuhuli ang tingin nito."Not now," maikling tugon niya, at humakbang siya ulit.Ngunit hinarangan siya ulit nito. Because of that ay matalim niya siyang tinitigan."What the hell is wrong with you?" inis niyang wika."I've been thinking about you. Look, I know you're mad because I went opposite from what you want—" he admitted.Hearing that, she scoffed in disbelief, and she cut him off by his sentence immediately. "I don't think you get the point."Natahimik si Kevin nang magsalita siya. "W-What do you mean?""Don't you really get it? I AM DIVORCING YOU BECAUSE OF YOUR SELFISHNESS! And not because you were contradicting me," she straightforwardly mentioned on his face.For a moment, natulala si Kevin dahil hindi niya inaasahan ang sinabi nito. Napataas nam
"DIVORCE?" I mentioned out loud, questioning myself more. God, I hate that word! And, I gulped the remaining liquor inside the bottle when Carl pulled it down that surprised me. "Okay, you should stop now. You're drunk already," he scolded, and he put away the bottle from me. "Give me that. I need that!" I whined. "No," he respectfully refused my order, and he looked dead straight into my soul. What do he want now? "What?" I asked even though I'm kinda dizzy already. But, I managed to look at him too. "One question, one answer. Just yes or no. Do you still love her?" he commanded giving me a look. "What kind of question is that—?" I groaned. "Just answer it," he demanded. "Of course, I do! I am fvcking in love with her since day one!" I honestly replied. "Then, do everything you can to win your Wife back. Don't just stay here and drown yourself to alcohol. Nothing is going to happen to you if you are just going to stay here and mourn to your heartbreak," he cheered me up.
Evening, nasa balcony si Atasha at tahimik na nag-iisip nang pumasok si Kevin, na kaagad pinulupot ang dalawang kamay niya sa bewang nito and hugged her from the back. He then rested his chin on her right shoulder sweetly. "You can always tell me what's on your mind, my Wife," he whispered with a smile on his face. She let out a sigh first before answering him. "I don't know. I'm in dilemma. Because I don't think my heart will not get satisfied when I just throw Uncle at the prison. I want something. I want him to die on my own hands," she stated with full of rage in her eyes. Because of that, he raised his head in confusion, and he stood next to her. "Are you serious?" he asked that his eyebrows collided in the middle. "I'm dead serious," she replied with full of determination on her eyes, and she glanced at him. "What? What's with that look?" she curiously questioned. "I can't believe that you'd rather take his life with the use of your own hands than let the authorities handle
