Chapter 46
Warning: Suicide
Mabilis ang flight namin pauwi sa Pilipinas. Jerwin's parents immediately allowed us after knowing what happened. Nung makita nila ang pagkabalisa ko, they immeduately said yes at sila na daw muna ang bahala sa upcoming deals.
Jefferson is now driving. Papunta sa mansion namin. I'm nervous at ilang ulit akong huminga nang malalim. I'm nervous in what I would see when I got there. Sana nalowbat lang si Mommy o kaya naman nahulog lang yung phone but... her words. Her words hunts me. Her words sounds farewells. Para syang naghahabilin.
"Venice.." Jefferson's voice invaded my thought. I felt him held my hand and gently squeezed. I held back his hand.
"Don't overthink. Okay?" He softly said. I just nodded and wait till we got home.
Mabilis akong lumabas nang maiparada ang kotse sa tapat nang mansion namin. The whole mansion is so silent. Mukhang walang tao. I hesitantly st

He quietly went beside me and lied down. He faced me but he didn't say something. He just stared. "My mom... I know, h-how she h-hurt us by how she insulted you back then" I started speaking. Umayos nang higa si Jefferson. Lumapit sya nang mas malapit sakin but still, he didn't speak. "But, I can't stay mad at her. I c-can see how she regret that and on those y-years, I manage to forgive her and also, my Dad. She always tells me how sorry she was and ramdam ko naman na bumabawi sya don. When I told her that I wanted to work, she seems hesitant but I insisted since I know how much she missed our life before. I started working to your company. She seems hesitant to let me at first when she heard about me working at Rivera's. Yun pala, alam nya yung nangyari noon. She knew what my father.. did to you.." My tears started to fall. Jefferson immediately wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. I leaned my head on his chest

Warning: Violence I quietly sit infront of my father. Andito kami sa sala kwarto ko nag usap. Jefferson is also with me and some police officer for my father. "Start speaking now" I said. My father cleared his throat. "I was upset when I knew about your relationship with Madrid. Alam mo kung gaano ko inaalagaan ang imahe nang pamilya natin at sa nalaman ko, nagalit ako dahil alam kong kahihiyan yon sa pamilya" I gritted my teeth and continue listening to him. "I did blackmail you to ruin his mothers life if you didn't break up with him pero hindi ko pinakialaman ang nanay nya because you broke up with him" "I was happy when that happens. Walang dahilan nang issue na magiging dahilan nang kahihiyan. Pero, ilang araw lang, muling nagpakita si Jefferson sa tapat nang mansion naten at sobra akong nagalit don. Nalaman ko na ilang araw syang andun sa labas" I already heard this pero hindi a

I woke up and my eyes immediately shuts dahil sa hapdi. My head also hurts. I got up and glance around. I stared at the figure beside me. There's Jefferson, sleeping beside me. Hindi ko man lang napansin but I found myself staring at him. This man is always there for me. Mula noon hanggang ngayon. Kahit nung panahong hindi ko pa alam na sya pala si Jefferson. He's always there. He always cares. I slowly leaned forward and kissed his forehead before I stood up. I wanna see my mom. Naghilamos ako at nag ayos. I didn't change my clothes. I'm still wearing a black blouse and black jeans at saka ako lumabas. I'm surprised to see Yohan, Tanya, Hera and Emman on the living room, sleeping. Where's Reishell and Yuan, tho? I glanced one last time at them and a small smile etched on my lips and I go outside. There are some people who's already there and I saw
Still The One Chapter 50
After my mom's burial. I stopped working. I also payed my Dad's debts but as my mom says, hindi ko sya pinyansahan. Ginamit ko ang natitirang pera para magsimula ulit. It's been 5 months since my mom's burial and still, the pain is with me. The pain is still buried through my system. I stopped working and just focus on fixing myself. I also went away like how I wish. About Jefferson, he's seems hesitant at first pero pinayagan nya ko. This is a good way to heal myself, he said. He always texts me. Pati sila Reishell. Her wedding happened one month after my mom's burial but I'm not able to attend. I just facetimed her after the ceremony. I apologized and congratulate her. Yohan and Tanya, I heard they are now a thing. They started dating months ago. Hera and Emman, they fixed their relationship. They clarified what they really are. I'm happy for all of them. Me and Jefferson didn't clarified yet what ou
Still The One Epilogue
Warning: Violence Nakakunot ang noo ko nang makaharap ko si Aling Tere. Yung kapitbahay naming napakiusapan ko na bantayan si Nanay. Walang kabuhay buhay ang mukha nya ngayon na syang pinagaalala ko. Asan si Nanay? Gusto ko syang makita ngayon. Gusto kong humingi nang comfort sakanya at yakapin sya. "Aling Tere?" Inangat nya ang tingin sakin at nagulat ako sa luhang tumulo sa mata nya. "Jeff iho. W-wala na ang nanay mo" Posible pala yung sinasabi nilang pagtigil at pagkasira nang mundo mo. Dahil yun mismo ang nararamdaman ko ngayon. Isama pa yung pagkabasag nang puso ko. Napuno nang sakit ang buong sistema ko at napaluhod nalang ako. "Iho, p-pasensya na. H-hindi ko alam n-na may sakit pala syang d-dinadamdam. Jefferson, pasensya na!" Sambit ni Aling Tere pero hindi ako nakasagot. Hindi ako makasagot dahil napalitan nang hikbi ang bawat salitang lalabas sa bibig ko.
Still The One Prologue
"Jeff!" pagtawag ng dalaga sa binatang abala sa hardin ng mansyon. Panandalian syang tumigil para harapin ang dalagang tumawag sa kanyang pangalan. "Ms. Venice, ikaw pala," nakangiting sabi nya. Nagpupunas pa ng kamay dahil nalagyan ito ng putik nang ayusin nya ang mga halaman. "Anong Miss? Sabi ko sayo diba? Venice nalang," sambit naman ng dalaga. Napahimas sa batok si Jeff at napaiwas ng tingin. Hindi nya kasi lubos maisip na tatawagin nya sa pangalan ang amo nya. "V-venice..." "Ayan! Mas okay ako sa ganyan." Sambit naman ni Venice at pumapalakpak pa. "Anyways, kaya pala kita tinawag kasi gusto ko magpaturo," sabi ni Venice. "Paturo? Saan ba?" "Sa schoolworks ko. Well, may ilang terms and formulas lang naman akong di ganung ma-gets and since, top 1 ka sa klase nyo, I'm sure, you can help me." "Sure, may free tim

Kusang namulat ang mata ko dahil sa sinag ng araw na tumama sa mukha ko. Agad akong napabuntong hininga. Bagong araw nanaman. Bumangon ako at agad inayos ang higaan. Nag inat ako bago pumunta sa banyo para mag ayos. Naghilamos ako at nagsipilyo saka tinali ang buhok ko. Lumabas din ako pagkatapos at lumabas sa banyo para diretso labas sa kwarto. "Anak, andyan kana pala. Come, eat with us" salubong ni Mommy saken. Nilalapag nya ang baso at sinasalinan ang baso ni Daddy na syang tahimik at nagbabasa ng dyaryo. Nangunot ang noo ko pero agad ding nawala ng mapagtanto ko. Oo nga pala. Binalewala ko yon saka ako dumiretso sa upuan ko at kumain. May pupuntahan pa pala ako ngayon. "Venice, ano? Kamusta yung pinagkakaabalahan mo?" Tanong ni Daddy na nakatuon na ang paningin sa akin. Uminom ako ng tubig bago sumagot. "Wala parin, pa. Pero, n

Pagkabukas palang ng elevator, bumungad na saken ang iilang tao na nakahilera. "So, dito ka?" Tanong ni Yohan na nasa tabi ko pa pala dahilan para tumingin ang iilang taong nasa malapit. "Uhm, yeah. Salamat" Sagot ko. "Sure, no problem. Goodluck" sambit nya. Agad naman akong lumapit at naupo sa upuan. Tumingin ako sa wrist watch ko. Almost lunch na din pala. Di bale, mamaya ako kakain. Importante ito kaya uunahin ko muna. Isa pa, andito na ko eh, alangang umalis pako. As time passed, paunti ng paunti ang tao dito. Ang iba ay nakaalis na. Mga nasa 15 nalang siguro kaming natira. Nang biglang lumabas si Yohan mula sa isang pintuan. "Okay everyone! Sorry to tell you but the CEO calls it a day. Ipagpapatuloy nalang daw the other time, so for now, you may go home" Natulala naman ako dahil don. Tapos na?
