My mind kept racing because of what Darius had just said. He left when his friends called him, flashing me a playful smile before gently ruffling my hair and walking away. Sobrang init ng pisngi ko sa sinabi niya at halos ayaw na ring kumalma ang puso ko. Siguro kung may sakit ako sa puso baka inatake na ako.

Totoo bang may gusto si Darius sa’kin? O baka ineeme niya lang ako dahil mabilis akong maniwala?

The thought lingered, making my chest feel tight. Was it possible that someone like him, always playful and carefree, could genuinely harbor feelings for me? Or was I just overthinking it, like always?

Nakakainis! Knowing his personality, baka nga pinagloloko lang ako ni Darius! Lagot sa’kin iyon kapag makita ko siya ulit!

Napalinga-linga ako, hinahanap si Li, pero hindi pa rin siya bumabalik sa pwesto namin. Wala pa rin akong makitang bakas niya kaya nanatili akong nakaupo dito sa upper deck, leaving me all alone.

Nasa lower deck ang karamihan at doon nagsasaya. Mga tawanan, cheers,

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   83 - Negotiation

    ETHAN SIERRA“I am not. The moment you leave me hangin’, Ethan, tinanggal na rin kita sa buhay ko. Now, leave, I need to rest.” Hirap akong lapitan si Sera dahil nilalayo niya talaga ang loob niya sa’kin. Naiinis ako sa sarili ko. Will I really let her slip away from me? No. Hindi ko kaya.“I want to cancel my engagement with Kendra, Lo. Ayokong ituloy,” wika ko dahilan para matigilan si Lolo sa kanyang ginagawa.“We already talked about this, Ethan, don’t make me repeat myself.”I clenched my jaw. How am I supposed to convince him to stop the engagement between me and Kendra? Natigilan ako sa pagre-review ng proposal that needed to be finalized before sending it to the investors for signing contracts, when Manang Rosa knocked on my door and told me that someone was looking for me.Pagkababa ko ng hagdan ay nakita ko si Darius na seryosong tinitignan ang mga larawan sa paligid ng sala. Ang isang kamay niyang nakapamulsa, habang ang isang kamay naman ay hawak ang larawan namin ni Sera

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   82 - Engagement

    ETHAN SIERRA“Ethan! Why are you doing this to me? Ako ang girlfriend mo! Bakit ba puro si Sera na lang ang kasama mo! Bakit siya na lang palagi?!” Kendra's voice was sharp, filled with frustration and jealousy.“Pwede ba, Kendra? I don’t have time for your bullshit!” I snapped, my patience wearing thin.Nanlaki ang bilugang mga mata ni Kendra, at siyang pamumula naman ng kanyang tenga at pisngi sa galit at inis.I hadn’t meant to yell at her, but she had been pushing me for days, testing my patience when I had nothing left to give. I was exhausted—mentally, emotionally. Everything had happened so suddenly.Tita Sarah was gone.Sera hadn't spoken since. The shock had stolen her voice, leaving her trapped in a silence none of us could break.Sometimes, she would just sit there, staring at her mother’s coffin, tears falling quietly down her cheeks. Liam had tried to comfort her at first, but when she didn’t respond, not even acknowledging his presence, he eventually stopped trying.And n

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   81 - Fall

    ETHAN SIERRADays have passed and our school year has ended. I immediately went to Manila for the training. Pagkarating ko sa mansyon ni Lolo ay isang malakas na sampal ang natanggap ko.“You’re helping the Valencias?!” Sigaw nito na halos pumutok na ang ugat nito sa leeg dahil sa galit. Hinila ako ni Yael palayo kay Lolo. “It doesn’t mean he’s helping Gabriel Valencia, Lo. You know how close he is to his child. At walang kasalanan si Sera sa nangyayari sa mga magulang niya. She’s innocent!” “Yes, she’s innocent. But that doesn’t mean you have to help them. Baka nakakalimutan mo kung magkano ninakaw ng lalaking iyon sa’tin, Ethan. And now you’re investing in their company. Are you fucking insane? Sa papaluging kompanyang iyon?!”Nagtangis ang panga ko sa sinabi ni Lolo. He has the right to get mad. I invested his money in Sera’s Furnitures Company—but that money is from working hard as a trainee. Hindi naman ako basta-basta nag-iinvest ng gano’ng kalaking halaga kung alam kong hindi

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   80 - Admitted

    ETHAN SIERRAI felt uneasy when Sera didn’t show up at school for days. The longer she was gone, the more restless I became.So I went to her house.Manang was the one who greeted me at the door, her expression heavy with concern. “Nasa ospital sila Ethan,” she said. “Nakunan si Sarah. Pwede mo namang puntahan, pero uuwi na rin sila bukas.”Something inside me tightened.I didn’t waste time—I went straight to the hospital. But when I got there, I found myself unable to move forward.Sera sat in the hallway, her hands folded neatly on her lap, her posture still. Too still.She looked lost.Her mother wouldn’t even speak to her, and she didn’t push. She just sat there, her face void of emotion. Then, as if sensing someone watching her, she let out a deep sigh and forced a smile—one that didn’t reach her eyes. As if nothing had happened.But I knew better.And this—this was exactly why I didn’t want to lose her smiles.Because I knew how quickly her world could fall apart. And if I could

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   79 - Her Smiles

    ETHAN SIERRAI was sitting under a coconut palm tree, flipping through the pages of my book while the waves crashed against the shore. The birds were humming, and the wind made the trees sway, their leaves rustling softly. It was calm, peaceful—one of those moments where everything felt right, or I thought so.“Ayoko pa kasing umuwi, Mama! Ayoko!” Sigaw ng batang babae at mabilis na tumatakbo palayo sa tinatawag niyang mama.She’s small, but runs like a cheetah.Hingal na hingal ang Mama niyang napahinto habang ang kamay ay nakasenyas sa bata na lumapit sa kanya.Pero inilabas niya lang ang dila niya sa Mama niya at nakwembot pa. Hindi ko mapigilang matawa dahil ang cute niyang tignan.“Seraphina, please. I still have a lot of work to do, hmm? Listen to Mama, okay?” Hinihingal pa rin ang ginang habang tuwang-tuwa naman ang babae at hindi pa rin natigil sa pagkembot.“Mama naman kasi! Ayoko nga. Hindi na sana tayo nagpunta dito kung magtatrabaho ka lang. You didn’t bring me here last su

  • Shadows of the Heart (Ethan Sierra)   78 - The End

    Ilang araw nang nagdaan simula nang ayaw nila akong papuntahin sa ospital kung saan naka-confine si Darius. They want me to stay away from him as much as possible. Ilang araw ko na ding hindi pinapansin sila Ethan dahil sa masama pa rin ang loob ko sa kanila. Darius almost died! Mamamatay siya kung hindi lang siya naagapan agad. But I heard critical siya kaya hindi ko alam kung he’s still in unconscious state or what.Narinig ko ang pagbukas ng pintuan ng silid ko maging ang mga yabag na papalapit nito sa’kin.“You should eat, Sera… Dalawang araw ka nang hindi kumakain,” bakas ang pag-aalala sa boses ni Ethan, pero hindi ko siya pinansin. I was busy planning on how to take Mara down. I was now on the verge of revenge and no one could stop me. Not even Ethan.“Gusto kong lumabas. If you care for me, hahayaan mo ako, Ethan.” “And then what? To watch you gone again, Sera? What do you want? Ang tuluyan kang mapatay ng kung sino mang gusto kang patayin? Do you think I will let that happe
