Chapter 58: Reasons 3
Malakas sa tenga ni Belle ang pagtiktak ng orasan sa dingding. Gabi na at umuulan subalit hindi pa rin bumabalik si Zyrone. At kahit na anong pilit niya, hindi siya makatulog.
Una, dahil gusto niya sanang masiguro na naka-uwi nga si Zyrone. At pangalawa, sadyang bumibisita ang mga alaalang gusto na niyang kalimutan tuwing umuulan kaya hindi dumadalaw sa kanya ang antok.
She walked over the glass wall of the receiving area where she was waiting for Zyrone. Malungkot niyang pinagmasdan ang sunod-sunod na pagbagsak ng butil ng ulan mula roon.
Honestly, she was never fond of the rain. Marami siyang hindi magagandang alaala tuwing umuulan. One time, nadapa siya dahil sa pagmamadali niyang makauwi mula sa eskwelahan dahil ayaw niyang mabasa sa ulan. Nagasgasan ang tuhod at siko niya noon. And even until now, naalala pa niya ang sakit na dulot ng pagkasugat niyang iyon. Umuulan din tuwing napuputulan sila ng ilaw o kaya naman lumalabas ang Mama niya para

Marry Me, Stranger Chapter 59: Disappointments
Nagmamadaling naghugas ng kamay si Belle sa sink bago niya inabot ang cellphone niya na nagri-ring sa kitchen counter. She was cooking lunch for her and Zyrone. Tuwing lunch break kasi umaakyat ito sa penthouse para sabay silang kumain. Sa hapunan naman, usually, nagpapaluto na lang ito sa restaurant ng hotel para daw hindi siya mapagod nang husto. Gano’n na ang set-up nila mula nang makabalik ito mula sa Germany isang linggo na ang nakararaan. And true to his word, he did took care of her since he came back. He personally checks on her kahit na nasa trabaho ito. Hindi na nito inuutusan si Treyton or kaya si Ivy para bantayan siya. He makes sure that everything she needs he provides, no matter how busy he maybe through the day. And at night, they’d watch a movie or a documentary of her own choosing. After that, he’d tuck her to bed before he goes to his own room to sleep. Hindi na muling naulit pa ang pagtatabi nila sa kama after that one rainy

“Did he tell you why he went there with that… with that…. good-for-nothing girl? What’s the purpose of his presence there? My god, you are his wife now! What the hell was he thinking?” histerikal na pahayag ni Miranda habang kausap niya ito sa cellphone niya.Kababalik lang niya galing sa penthouse nang tumawag ito. Sa totoo lang, mula nang magsimula ang press conference ni Audrey, sunod-sunod na ang pagpasok ng text messages sa cellphone niya mula sa mga common friends nila ni Zyrone. But she chose not to respond to any of those.She wanted to talk to Zyrone first and hear his side. She knew that’s the right thing to do.Kahit na sana ang gusto niyang gawin ay puntahan ang venue ng press con at hilahin paalis doon ang lintek na suplado!But then again, ipapahiya lang niya ang sarili kapag ganoon. At saka baka makahalata si Zyrone tungkol sa tunay niyang nararamdaman. Dahil bakit niya ito pupulisin nang

“Good morning!” masayang bati ni Audrey kay Belle. The woman was wearing an apron around her waist and was busy prancing around the kitchen.“G-good morning!” sabi niya, alanganin. “You’re cooking breakfast?”Lalong lumawak ang pagkakangiti ng babae. “Yes. For me and Zyrone. But I made coffee. May natitira pa sigurong one cup doon sa coffee maker,” anito habang hinahalo ang niluluto nitong sinangag.Lihim siyang napa-irap. The actress really made sure to make her feel excluded. Ang galing din talaga nito. Ito ang gumawa ng eskandalo tapos pagbalik nito para itong anghel na bumaba sa langit at nagsabog ng kabutihan sa mundo.Napanood niya ang press con nito kahapon. Maliban sa 30 minutes nitong pag-iiyak, 15 minutes nitong paghagulgol at pagyakap kay Zyrone, ang rason na tanging naalala niya na sinabi nito kung bakit hindi ito nakasipot sa kasal nito at ni Zyrone ay dahil nakidnap ito nang
Marry Me, Stranger Chapter 62: Separate Lives
Awtomationg kumuyom ang kamay ni Belle dahil sa sinabi ni Zyrone. Agad na nawala ang pagkataranta niya, napalitan iyon ng gigil. May pa-wife-wife ngayon ang lintek na suplado matapos siya nitong kalimutan kagabi dahil abala ito at ang ex-fiancee at bedmate nitong si Audrey na kulang na lang ipamukha sa kanya kaninang umaga na siya ang sampid sa buhay ni Zyrone kahit na kasal sila!Aba naman talaga! Anong akala nito sa kanya, uto-uto?“So now you have a wife. Funny because just this morning I was told otherwise,” sarkastiko niyang sagot.Nagsalubong na ang mga kilay nito, sumulyap pa kay Drew na naroon pa rin sa tabi niya, tahimik na nakamasid sa kanila. “C’mon, Belle. Let’s talk outside,” anito nang ibalik ang tingin sa kanya.She scoffed, his arrogance is beginning to irk her again. “Can’t you see, I’m working here. Whatever it is that you’d want to discuss with me, you have

Pikit-matang tinungga ni Belle ang laman ng shot glass na nasa harapan niya. Agad na gumuhit ang pait niyon sa lalamunan niya subalit tiniis niya. She was there to distract herself, wasn't she? And the bitterness of the alcohol she chose to consume is just a small price she needed to pay for the much needed distraction she needed for the night. Lukot ang mukha niyang ibinalik sa counter ang shot glass.“Isa pa, p-please,” aniya sa bartender ng bar na kinaroroonan niya.Kinalabit siya ni Cristi na siyang kasama niyang nakaupo sa bar counter. “Hoy, Belle, uhaw ka? Remind ko lang ha, hindi softdrinks ‘yang tequila. Kaya, hinay-hinay din, girl,” sita nito sa kanya bago tumungga sa sarili nitong bote ng beer.Ngumiti lang siya bago ininom ulit ang laman ng shot glass na kakabigay lang ng bartender sa kanya. Pagkababang-pagkababa niya ng shot glass sa counter, agad na dumoble ang tingin niya sa bartender. Kumurap siya at marahang
Marry Me, Stranger Chapter 64: Behind The Gestures
Zyrone impatiently tapped his fingers on the stirring wheel as he waits for Belle to come out the bar she was in. It’s Friday. Pero imbes na magpahinga, there he was in the parking lot of some bar waiting for Belle. Napabuga siya ng hininga. Ilang araw na rin niyang pinapasundan sa mga tauhan niya si Belle. He wanted to make sure that even his wife had decided to live separately from him, Belle is safe. He knew he messed up big time. Marami siyang inilihim kay Belle. Una d’yan ang mga inasikaso niyang lawsuits against Gold Hotel abroad. Gold Hotel faced several lawsuits because of the poisoning incidents of guests on several of their branches. His father just dismissed him when he tried to ask for his help in fixing the problem. Sinabihan siya nito na tutal magaling daw siyang magdesisyon, siya na lang ang magresolba ng problema. Angry, he took his father’s refusal to help him as a challenge. But what he didn’t expect was the severity of the problem he had to face. Gold Hotel didn’t
Marry Me, Stranger Chapter 65: Everything
Mataas na ang araw nang magising si Belle kinabukasan. Her body felt heavy and her damn head was pounding.Nang magmulat siya, bumungad sa kanya ang pamilyar na kisame ng kanyang kuwarto. She had no idea how she ended up where she was supposed to, but she’s more than glad that she still made it home last night in however way she did. Marahan siyang bumangon sa kanyang kama. Napatingin siya espasyo sa tabi niya. Hindi naman iyon masyadong gusot. And she doesn’t know why but she was having an unclear memory of being cocooned into something comfortable last night.The warmth felt too real. She felt safe. And yet…She slowly shook her head. Nalasing lang siya, kung anu-ano nang naiisip niya. Sino naman ang yayakap sa kanya habang tulog siya?She carefully climbed out of her bed, reached for her towel and made her way to the bathroom downstairs. A cold shower might help her feel better and get her wits straight.Subalit pagdating niya sa ibaba ng bahay niya, agad na nanlaki ang mga mata
Marry Me, Stranger Chapter 66: Everything 2
Zyrone’s mouth tasted of promises and she instantly melted in his arms. His kisses were sweet, gentle… loving. He gently circled his arms around her waist and pulled her flushed to him. Agad niyang nakalimutan ang mga agam-agam niya, ang mga pag-aalinlangan niya, ang kanyang mga hinanakit pati na rin ang mga pangako niya sa kanyang sarili pagdating sa pagmamahal niya kay Zyrone. It was as if all of those didn’t matter anymore.His heat was slowly devouring her logic and all of her senses—pushing her to that senseless edge of desire and insatiable wanting. How has she become that, she had no idea. All that mattered that moment was Zyrone’s kisses and the fiery pit of desire he was creating around them.And she knew, she will always willingly surrender all of her to him. Over and over. With no questions asked.She yearns for him that much. Will always love him that much.And just when she thought she will begin to be consumed, he suddenly tore his mouth from hers. She silently groaned
