Secrets Volume 1

"I can't tonight, I have a paper to write."That was what Mercedes Samson told me that afternoon while she was lying beside me inside my condo unit. I asked her if she wanted to have dinner with me - it was a surprise. I actually want her to meet my mom. I figured that she has to meet my mom because I'm in love with her. I grinned at myself. I'm in love with her and somehow she doesn't know that. I'm trying hard to make her feel that pero wala. Hindi ko alam kung manhid si Mercedes pero wala talaga siyang nararamdaman.She took a quick shower and just left. Ganoon naman kami. We don't cuddle. We don't hug, we just fuck and yet she penetrated right through me. Pinanood ko siya habang palabas siya ng unit ko. I realized now that I don't know much about her. It's only her name, where she lives, her birthday and her blood type. Maliban doon wala na. I don't even know her friends, where she goes when we're not fucking. I grinned again.Last week, I found out that she was always inside the

"Sheena, will you be okay?"Isang tango ang ibinigay ko kay Laide para makaalis na siya sa table na iyon at makapagsayaw na siya kasama si Antonio Cendera - ang date niya para sa Junior at Senior's Prom night na iyon. Sino ba naman ang hindi gugustuhing isayaw si Laide? Isa siya sa pinakamagandang babae ngayon sa lugar. Hindi man nakaayos ay talagang napakaganda na niya. Iniisip ko na dahil iyon sa dugong kastila niya - kaya lalo siyang namumukud-tangi sa lahat.Habang nakaupo doon ay tinitingnan ko si Adelaide. Masayang-masaya siya habang nakikipag-sayaw sa mga batch mates namin. Habang ako, nakaupo doon, tahimik at hinihintay na matapos ang gabi. Hindi ko alam kung bakit walang kahit isang lumalapit sa akin. Siguro ay hindi ako ganoong kaganda para sa kanila Siguro ay hindi sapat na inayos ko ang sarili ko. Ordinaryo pa rin siguro ako para sa ilan. Hindi sapaat ang kagandahan ko para isayaw ng kung sino.Nakadama ako ng pagkainip kaya tumayo ako at naisipan kong maglibot sa venue. N

"Not all evil men are evil, some are evil men willing to do good, baby..."I closed the story book as I watch my little girl close her eyes while I read a bedtime story for her. I tucked Hyan to bed and kissed her forehead before looking at the crib next to her to check if Haley ---- my three year old baby girl is asleep. I smiled as I look at my best girls.Pinatay ko ang ilaw at lumabas na ng silid nila. Hindi ko isinara ang pintuan para madinig ko kung anoman ang mangyayari sa loob niyon. I went to the boys bedroom where I found my best boys --- Hyron, Hunter and Heath. Hyron is already asleep when I entered their room but Hunter and Heath were still playing doctor who and they only stopped when they saw me."Momma's here! She caught us!" Heath yelled at his younger brother. Namaywang ako."Didn't your dad tuck you two?" Nakataas ang kilay na tanong ko."Dada did but we played him!" Heath said proudly. "Kunwari we sleep na. Kuya Hyron was supposed to be with us but he really did fa

To my lovely wife,It's been... I don't know... eight years since you took your long time vacation, and up until now, I miss you. I still do. Hindi ko masukat, Apollo, kung gaano na ang pangungulilang nararamdaman ko para sa'yo. Sometimes, babe, when I couldn't sleep, I hug the pillow you once laid your head on and just lay there. I would think about our memories together and it's funny how the funny once turns to be the most heart breaking memories I could ever imagine.I miss you, babe... I sometimes wish that you are still with me. That one day, I will wake up with you beside me again – still sleeping. I would stare at your face until you smile and open your eyes. I would kill to hear your voice again, Apollo. I would give up everything just to hold your hand again. I would do everything – even if that's to pawn my soul to the devil – so I could see you again...But... I just have to let it go. Life goes on... Iyan ang sinabi ko kay Laide noong umalis na rin si Adam. I know you two

"Hindi ba pwedeng tayo na lang ulit, Keith?"Tiningnan ko lang si Nathan. Hindi ako makapaniwala sa naririnig ko mula sa kanya. Nasa dating tagpuan kami – saan iyon? Sa labas ng bahay namnin. Nakaupo kaming dalawa sa tapat ng flower box kung saan niya ako tinanong noong sixteen years old ako. Ang bilis ng panahon, limang taon na iyong nakalipas at break na kami ni Nathan.Nathan and I broke up that night I was about to give him my virginity. He was on top of me – and yes we're in the middle of a very heated make out session but then, he uttered someone else's name and that's the start of a very heated argument which ended our relationship. I thought that I'm gonna hate Nathan forever, but two days later, we became friends again. Mula noon, wala nang Natkeith – meron na lang Nathan at Keith.Minsan kapag iniisip ko, nanghihinayang ako sa naging relasyon namin ni Nathan – sa kanya ko naramdaman iyong kilig na hinahanap ko. He showers me with compliment and surprises. Oo nga at indi siya
