La Cuevas #1: When the Star Falls Chapter 1
“Congratulations, Attorney Galvez.” I smiled at att Raegan Ignacio. He's one of our contract lawyers here. "You're a highly skilled lawyer who knows how to make evidence suppressed in court. You amaze me." “Thank you, Attorney.” I replied. He was also present in the court earlier to watch the final trial of my client. I just got my client acquitted, and by that, I had to overwork myself preparing for trials and cross examinations, motions, and too much stress. Dang, I feel so tired. I just want to go home to my son so I excused myself politely for I still have personal things to do. When I got into my old SUV in the parking area, I immediately dialed Yana’s number. “Ciao!” she greeted lively. “So how did the trial goes? did you win? Tell me you did!” I smiled. “I did..” “Gosh! You haven’t lost a trial before! I’m so proud of you!” I felt my heart flattered hearing her voice. She’s been my best friend since then. Though I’m six years older than her, we became close becaus

“Mierda! Can I just skip these?! It's fucking long!” Yana exclaimed pertaining to the Philippine Constitution I made her read. “No.” I firmly said. She’s a third-year student taking Political Science at the University of the Philippines. She hired me as her tutor since I also need extra income. “But I already read the Australian Constitution! Mi fa male la testa!” “You’re here in the Philippines now and that’s just the fundamentals of your course.” She’s originally from Italy but studied in Australia with the same course. "What about you? You’re supposed to teach me, why are you just writing there?" She's really like a child. "I'm writing your reviewer so you won't have to read everything you need. Shut up and read what I told you to." I’m six years older than her. I’m taking law at the UP College of Law here in Diliman just the same with her. She frowned at her beautiful face. “Non Voglio.” I can’t even understand her. I heaved a sigh and nodded before closing her

“What happened? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” I blinked when Yana clicked her fingers in front of me. “O-oh.. nothing. Where are we again?” I asked when I finally came back to my right mind. I was dumbfounded thinking about that rude pervert earlier. I just can’t believe I embarrassed myself twice in front of him. Damn it. “Hmm, é abbastanza. I’m tired!” She said as she closed her book. I creased my forehead. “Huh? No way, you can’t be lazy like that every time.” I grabbed the book from her hand to open it again. She still wasn’t familiar with the basics so she have a long way to go. And I’m her tutor so it also affects my image if she messed up. “We can continue this tomorrow, I have a party to attend!” She said. “Party?” “Sí. Par-ty.” She rolled her eyes. “Where?” Is that the party that Kate’s talking about? She stopped arranging her things. “Hm… I think it’s in RB? Not sure." I knew it. "Should I drop you off?” I just shrugged and yawned. “I’m good. Take

Days passed and my path never crossed again with Loren’s. My performance in both work and law school went well, except for the multiple attempts of guys in getting my number. The landlady also had visited me twice already. I just can’t budget my salary for my daily expenses and school. I’m thankful that she somehow understands, though. I am now here at The Lib again, and as usual, I am doing digests and lots of readings and ghostwriting for extra income. Law school is probably the most consuming time of my life. So I ought to make sure that it’s gonna be worth it in the end. I was moving on to the next case when Kate suddenly sat in front of me. “You okay?” I asked. She looked pale and her nose is reddish. “It’s so cold outside.” She muttered after sipping on my coffee. I just looked at the transparent glass wall beside me and nodded before resuming my digests. I was handwriting them because it was ordered in our memo. During my first year, my penmanship sucks so I tho

I tightened my grip on his polo because of the coldness. When he noticed that, he immediately turned off the ac. I turned my head to the window and bit my lip. When I turned to him, I saw his grip on the steering wheel tightened too, causing his veins to be more visible on his firm arms. I remember what Kate told me about veins. ‘It means they masturbate often!’ I shut my eyes hardly and shook my head. Now I can’t let his image while doing ‘it’ out of my mind! Damn it, Kate. “Are you going to work?” I opened my eyes. Wait, how did he knew I have work? And why is he here in Diliman? Does he live here? “I’ll go home first.” He nodded slowly while looking at the road. Why does he look different now from earlier? I showed him the direction to my house in Sta. Mesa, and he stopped his car in front of my apartment. “T-thanks.” I said and hurriedly held the door handle to go out but stopped when he spoke. “I’ll give you five minutes. I’ll drive you to your work.” I turned to

I'm in The Lib with Yana for our session. She’s sipping on her milk shake while I make her pointers.“Anyway, Loren asked me yesterday about you.” She said.“About me?”“Yeah, he’s my only neighbor at the 15th floor in Rockwell since that’s exclusive. He told me he has something to tell you so I gave him your name and workplace.” I stopped writing and sighed. So she's his source of information. “You told me he carried me out of the bar last time, right? Did you two talk?”I creased my forehead. “No.” I resumed writing.“Really? Anyway he wouldn’t dare to hit on you.” She remarked so I looked at her. “Duh? You’re famous in Ateneo for being a man hater!” She snapped so I unbelievably opened my mouth.“What?”“Remember the guys you’ve turned down before? Most of them are from Admu and Feu. Loren’s at the top of Admu medicine and I’m sure he’s heard about you!” She added.I transfixed my gaze and sighed in disbelief. I know I’m always grumpy, but I never thought that people would take it

"Truth or dare?" Question of the woman wearing a spaghetti strap crop top and shorts. She looks very drunk already. She was the loudest earlier and I found he very funny."Ahm .. dare!" Yana replied so they shouted.I slightly tilted my head because of the noise. "Kiss Nate!" The woman responded quickly so they all laughed.Nate is her classmate i guess, who is also a civil engineering student. "Seriously?" Yana asked with a laugh. No, girl, it's just a joke."All right! It's your birthday today and you're 20 so don't be kj!" The woman said. I think her name was Leslie.That's okay with me, Yana's at the right age but I just hope Nate doesn't expect too much because there's nothing in Yana's vocabulary to take seriously."Okay, let's go!" She said and stood up, Nate suddenly sat down and met Yana's mouth when she approached him."Ooohh!""Score!""HAHAHAHA!"I smiled and averted my eyes because they had been kissing for a long time. I caught sight of Loren who was sitting in front of
