"When you find real love, you will realize that sex is only a plus and not a priority."
As I watched the peaceful sky and the breath-taking view of buildings across this Italian City, my brows align as the pain strike in my head. I was rubbing my temple hoping to relieve the internal cracking sensation I feel when I noticed something on the floor.
Questions suddenly homed inside my head.
Thoughts were filled with hazy emotions.
Heartbeat jazz romantically in rhythm.
Suddenly, I remembered what had happened last night.
I stormed out from the bed without minding my naked body being exposed in the whole four corner of this luxurious room. With a dizzy head, I slowly picked up the vintage hair ornament on the floor. Mabini ko itong hinaplos kasabay ng pag- alala ko sa buong nangyari kagabi.
I still have vivid memories of every curve of hers, including her seductive hazel eyes, pointy nose, and rosy lips. His porcelain skin is so delicate that it feels like silky satin each time I touch it. It's also impossible for me not to admire her gorgeous humps, and I can't help but massage them delicately. I nearly felt her feminine abdominal structure as I held her slender waist with both of my hands.
That scent from her expensive perfume makes me go wild for her. She made me fall into her trap without regrets.
Curiosity fueled me even more. This hair ornament feels familiar so as her eyes that hypnotized me as I glance at it closely even her face was concealed behind the darkness of the night and that cover from a costume disguise.
I am now aching to know who that virgin maiden I took wildly to heaven last night. I want to unveil the mesmerizing beauty behind that black and gold masquerade mask.
This is the first time I got involved in a one-night stand with a virgin woman, whom I also saved from her psychotic suitor-slash-stalker. I was just passing by that time when I heard her scream for help, crying helplessly while that bastard maniac is trying to take advantage on her. Swiftly, I madness take over me and I rushed to blew off that perpetrator.
It feels drowning to see that innocent bombshell being traumatized by what happened. I'm not sure what came to mind, but I instantly picked her up and carried her here to my suite. For the first time, I was so close to a lady who was yet a stranger. I carefully placed her on my bed. I make sure she does not feel violated or harassed again. I am speechless after telling that her stalker is now in jail. She was so frail that even in both words and actions, I was cautious to make any move. I'm losing control of my thoughts when she's near me. My world was turned upside down in a spectacular and unexpected way because of her.
Parang bumabalik yung sakit ng sentido ko dahil lang sa pag-alala sa kanya. Inabot ko ang aking smartphone sa bedside table saka nagtipa ng numero at tinawagan ang taong alam kong makakatulong sa akin para mapabilis ang paghahanap sa estrangherang nagmamay-ari ng haird ornament na ito.
I took a picture of that old thing and send it to him. Dumiretso na rin ako sa banyo para makapag-isip ng maayos at mawala ang aking hang-over habang hinahayaang malayang magsawa ang aking katawan sa malamig na tubig galing sa shower.
What a twist that when I woke up I was surprised to see myself alone in that King size bed with only a crimson stain that had dripped into the sheet next to me. The stain served as testimony of a pleasant night I had with her.
I worshiped her with all of my being and enjoyed how our body sway in lustful rhythm. For the first time, I dare to asked permission to take her on a daring game of sex. I was so gentle when I claimed her. With her, I lost all of my sanity. Beyond the wildness, she could quickly calm me down through her soft moan and touch.
God knows how I fucking tried to stop myself to touch her but she has this ravishing effect on me that even my heartbeat beating so fast. She is a divine that I had the opportunity to spend the night with.
For me, she's different. She's innocent and angelic. Kahit pag-ungol lang ay masyadong mabini at masarap pakinggan. Her tight grip on my arms and those deep fingermarks into my back was like fuel in my fire. She's totally a lion behind her lamb aura, and I won't get tired to carefully worship her body and soul if I had been given another chance. Siya ang bukod tanging babae na tunay na dapat sinasamba at inaalagaan kaya naman aking sisiguraduhin na ako ang gagawa no'n.
I will make sure I'll get her, own her.
Lumipas ang isang buwan at tuluyan ko nang nalaman kung sino ang babaeng nakasiping ko ng isang gabi sa Italya. Pero ang ngiti ko’y hindi man lang umabot sa aking tainga, bagkus ay nakaramdam ako ng pag-aalinlangan.
There's something devious behind this.
Ang babaeng nakasiping ko nang gabing iyon at ang babaeng tanging nagmamay-ari ng puso ko simula pa noon ay iisa. Matagal na panahon rin nang huli ko siyang makita simula nang magkasiraan kami ng kapatid niya. Simula noon, hindi na muling nag-krus ang aming landas.
I and her brother said terrible things to each other and decided to put an end to our friendship.
Now I know why everything about her was so familiar. From that piece of hair ornament, to her pair of hazel eyes, to her voice, and to her being.
Fate was really playful because when I came back to the Philippines, I didn't expect that it wasn't just her identity that I was going to discover and it wasn't just her face that I was going to see again. As we met again, I found out a secret she was trying to hide from me.
I closed his eyes as the unwelcomed memories reanimate in every part of me, giving an inkling through my bewildered heart. Nagtatalo ang isip at puso ko sa kung ano ang dapat kong paniwalaan at sundin. Ngayon na alam kong mas may malalim na kaming koneksiyon sa isa’t-isa.
That night of one hot slip-up in bed will lead to those tangled lies and darkest secrets I had that I’m afraid she might discover.
What happened in the past and everything behind it surely test the endurance of our heart for the pain that lies within. One thing is for sure, that I am willing to go on for risk to keep her forever in a happily ever after if, on the other side, the past will keep on haunting me.
Alam kong walang kasiguraduhan ang mga plano ko para sa amin pero handa akong sumugal huwag lang mawala siya mawala sa akin muli. Tandhana na mismo ang gumawa ng paraan para kami’y muling magkalapit at hindi ko na palalagpasin pa ang pagkakataon na masiguradong, sa akin siya hanggang sa habangbuhay. Handa akong magdusa at pagbayaran lahat ng kasalanang pilit kong tinatakasan basta ay maging maayos lang ang magiging pagsasama namin.
I am willing to endure the pain to be with her. I am willing to sacrifice all the things I had hardly crawled for my success just to have her. I am willing to face death to save her from danger, or to anyone who got an eye to kill or get her from me.
Could love will heal our wounded heart?
“Amore mio, combatterò per l'amore che provo per te. Questo sarà il mio mezzo per dimostrarti che sono quello giusto per te. Che l'universo stesso ci ha predestinati a stare insieme e lo farà sempre.”
TWO RED LINES.I blinked faster than usual. My heartbeat seems to join the rhythm. Hindi ko matanggal ang aking tingin sa hawak ko. I can feel my hands shaking and sweating.Napapikit ako nang mariin habang pilit na hinahalukay sa aking isipan kung saan nagsimula ang lahat ng ito.Damn! This can't be!I didn't notice a soft knock on the bathroom door from outside. I still couldn't let go of what I was holding, and I suddenly looked up just as the small tears that had been clinging at the corner of my eyes fell."Blythe, ang tagal mo na d'yan. Please come out, kinakabahan na ako sa 'yo!" Oh damn! I almost forgot that my best friend is here.Hindi ko na namalayan ang oras at sa kung ilang minuto na akong nalagi rito sa banyo. Ayaw pa rin talaga magsink-in sa utak ang katotohanang pinapakita sa akin ng test kit."Hey! Please say something. Ano, okay ka lang ba d'yan?" Hindi na rin nito nilubayan ang pagkatok sa pintuan ng banyo. "Do I need to call a doctor na ba?"Doon na ako natauhan sa
The hell with that question!I started feeling uneasy by running my fingers across my hand. Elisha's question caused my heart rate rise dramatically.That memory I already buried down the grave were trying to escape again.One month ago, I was with Elisha that day in Italy for an Art Exhibit. I was cordially invited by the Artist itself and I can’t say no since he was a former client of my company. I originally invited Elisha and our other friend but the latter declined. Saktong available si Elisha kaya siya lang ang nakasama ko.What happened to me during the event were totally unexpected up until I woke up the next morning , naked with red stained behind the white bed sheet as an evidence that I lost my virginity with the stranger who became my savior and my one night stand vanquisher.“You returned home in different clothes, wearing a men's white long sleeve, your hair was unkempt, and you smelled like alcohol. You definitely used your masquerade disguise to get home safely. It's a
It's already ten in the evening.Only the light from the lampshade made from precious capiz shells pacifies the study room. I'm currently keeping myself busy to divert my mind thinking into something. I need to finish my paperwork because I'll be having an important meeting with an International client on Friday."Argh!"I messed up my hair out of frustration. I'm slowly losing my attention to what I am doing because I suddenly feel hungry. I want to eat something cold and sweet.I twitched my lips about that thought. Napatingin ako sa orasan at nakitang mag-aalas-diyes nap ala ng gabi. Mas lalo tuloy akong tinamad na bumaba ng condo para magpunta sa pinakamalapit na convenient store para sa cravings ko.My body has been craving something different to eat ever since I discovered I was pregnant. That sensation of wanting something that can be ordered from a distance or that comes in an odd culinary combo.Pregnancy hormones are causing me to have cravings, mood swings, and excessive sl
“Good morning Miss Blythe, Miss Elisha.” Bati sa amin ng secretary ni Geordane nang makarating kami dito sa ospital.“Good morning Jaz,” I greeted back.Pansin ko lang na mas busy ang mga tao ngayon dahil na rin sa napabalitang poison incident sa isang public school dito lang sa Makati at isang vehicular accident dahil sa Road Rage sa kahabaan ng EDSA.Nai-kuwento ni Jaztyn sa amin na agad silang inalerto ni Geordane at nagbaba ng memo na kunin lahat ng batang pasyente at agad na dalhin sa ER para mabigyan ng karampatang lunas sa pagkalason at ma-examine din ang kinain nila na naging sanhi para sumama ang kanilang tiyan.While praying for the kid’s speedy recovery, I am happy to know that Bryce ordered the Board that all the children brought from the poison incident will be treated for free in his hospital.Jaztyn guided us from the reception until we reached the floor where Geordane’s office is located.“Andiyan na ba si Geordane?” I asked.“Nasa Emergency Room pa po dahil siya yung
“Stimmt das?” {Is that true?} Nilingon ako ni Elisha matapos mapanood ang balita sa Smart TV. Parang hindi pa rin makapaniwala tong dalawang kaibigan ko."Yes. It won't be on the news if not," sagot ko naman.Well, it was announced that my brother and Giselle Jimenez are already engage since last year and their wedding will be in the next three months. Giselle made the announcement on her Instagram with a picture of her hand with a diamond engagement ring as if Bryce was holding it.Since then, my grandfather has been planning the much-anticipated wedding, and Giselle is the perfect match to be my brother's wife. I know Giselle outside of her celebrity life since we occasionally come across each other, particularly at social gatherings to which her family is also invited. She will undoubtedly take good care of my brother. I can tell she's madly in love with Bryce.“The Jimenez went to the mansion for a private family dinner about a year ago. I was there when they break that news to e
“Ma’am Blythe, si Ma’am Elisha po nandito,” bungad ni Kelly sa akin pagkatapos kong marinig ang pagkatok niya sa pinto.Wala sa sariling nag-exit ako ng Skype App matapos ang naging pag-uusap namin ng aking abuelo. Tumango lang ako sa ang aking sekretarya at hinayaan na papasukin ang aking kaibigan.Akala ko may meeting ito kaya nga siya hindi sumabay sa akin kanina. Hindi ko alam kung bakit biglang napapunta siya dito sa akin ng biglaan at walang pasabi.Parang magsasabong ang mga kilay nito at pansin ko na namumula na rin ang kanyang tenga, sensyales na hindi maganda ang timpla ng modo niya. Isang buntong hininga ang aking pinakawalan ng marinig ko ang malutong niyang pagmura sa hangin.“Not in a mood?” I asked her.She just rolled her eyes. “Wala na nga akong matinong tulog, bubungad pa sa akin ang isang bad news pagdating ko ng office kanina,”I frowned. Base sa hilatsa ng pagmumukha niya mukhang hindi basta-basta bad news lang ang nangyari sa kanya. Hindi rin naaalis ang kanyang
My morning went well because I did not suffer from morning sickness; nevertheless, I do not have a desire to cook my own meal, which is why I chose to order some Greek breakfast from Cyma instead. This restaurant is the best for Mediterranean cuisine, and it stands out when I'm longing for Greek food. Elisha just called to say she's in France for the Cartier photoshoot and will be back by Saturday afternoon, so she could be able to join with us on our girls' date that evening. Hindi na muna ako nagpunta sa opisina dahil natapos ko na rin kahapon ang mga importanteng papeles na kailangan kong tapusin. Sinabihan ko si Kelly na hindi ako papasok sa office at kung may client na papasok ay i-resched na lang bukas. I just want to relax. I want to be free from work even just for today. Naalala ko kasi ang bilin ni Geordane na kailangan kong magpahinga at makawala sa trabaho kahit dalawang beses sa isang linggo. Natigil ako sa pagmumuni-muni ng biglang mag-ring ang doorbell. Agad akong tu
[Stop worrying about Nana,] While I'm driving to work, I'm paying close attention to the road. I am talking to Geordane over the phone telling her about my conversation with Nana yesterday as she visited me at my unit. I had trouble sleeping last night since I was so anxious. I therefore get out of bed too early today and get ready to leave for the office at six thirty in the morning. I am uncomfortable to remain at my house either, as I will only recall everything that my Nana expressed yesterday. “Can’t help it G. She’s weird yesterday,” I said. [Parang hindi mo pa kilala si Nana. Masyadong malalim talaga iyon magbitaw ng mga salita…] Pero iba ang pakiramdam ko sa ibig sabihin ng sinabi niya sa akin. Alam kong may pinatutungkulan siya sa mga katagang iyon. “Hindi ko alam. I’m out of focused─” [Unahin mong isipin yung baby mo. Diba may importanteng client ka ngayon? Diyan kadapat mag focus.] putol sa akin ni Geordane. Today is Saturday and the day that I’ll be meeting my Itali
