Strawberries and Cigarettes Chapter 8
Chapter 8Tumunog ang telepono ni Hugo sa kalagitnaan ng pagbabasa niya ng reports sa nakaraan taon. Mariing napapikit ang binata nang abutin niya ang telepono at sinagot ang tawag."What is it?" Inis na sabi ni Hugo."S-sir... May iniwan po kasi si Mrs. Ruiz n-na lunch b-box... P-para daw sa inyo..." Kabadong sagot ng receptionist.Kumunot ang noo ni Hugo at naptingin sa relo sa palapulsuhan niya. It was quarter to 11. Could it be that Catalina sent the lunch box?"From my wife?""O-opo sir..."Maliit na napngiti si Hugo. "A'ight, I'm coming down to get it."Binaba ni Hugo ang telepono at nagmadaling lumabas sa opisina niya. Nagkatinginan ang dalawang receptionist at napalunok."A-anong sabi ni Mr. Ruiz?" Tanong ni Lyn."B-bababa daw s-siya... Kukunin niya..." Kabadong sagot ni Anya."Hindi ba ayaw niyang bumabana sa o-opisina niya?"Tumango si Anya. "Except ka Mrs. Ruiz.""Ang sweet..." Saad ni Lyn. "Pero nakakatakot pa rin si sir, kahit gwapo siya.""Bad boy si sir e, gwapo," tili
Strawberries and Cigarettes Chapter 9
Chapter 9Catalina stared at Hugo's dark face. Kakauwi niya pa lang sa bahay nila pero heto ang kaniyang asawa at lasing na lasing. He drank the whiskey straight and then he smoked his cigarette. Kanina pa umuusok ang kusina nila, even the lights were dimmed everywhere. Ilang araw nang hindi umuuwi si Catalina, hindi alam ni Hugo kung kailan siya maghihintay hanggang sa dumating ito.Hinagis ni Hugo ang hawak na kopita at kumuha ng bago. Catalina secretly gasped when he heard the glass shattered. Hugo poured the whiskey in and drank straight then ended up cracking the glass in his hands. Napamura si Hugo. "Fck!""Sebastian," he heard Catalina's voice.Tumawa si Hugo ng malakas. He's been hearing her here and there. Hindi alam ni Hugo kung totoo na ang naririnig niya at hindi niya rin alam kung totoo ang nakikita niya. He's been like this for a week, napailing na lang siya at muling kumuha ng kopita para sirain ulit.Before Hugo could even throw the glass, he heard noises from behind
Strawberries and Cigarettes Chapter 10
Chapter 10Hugo accidentaly sat on the remote that turned the bedroom tv on. Buhat-buhat niya si Catalina at marahang ipinatong sa kandungan niya. They were both half naked. The top of her dress has fell down her waist and he was topless with an open fly.Catalina and Hugo were kissing senseless on the bed. Both touching each other's warm bodies. Hapit ni Hugo ang baywang ni Catalina gamit ang isang kamay habang ang isa naman ay marahang pinipisil-pisil ang mayayaman niyang dibdib. Hugo's mouth was ravishing Catalina's breast that caused her to moan and scream out loud.Sinubukang tanggalin ni Catalina ang suot na damit dahil parang saggabal 'yon sa pagtatalik nila. A sound came out from the tv and the Netflix was still on. It played 365 Days on the part where Laura was saved by Massimo from drowning in the water of his own yatch. Lalong umingay ang tunog ng halikan nina Catalina at Hugo kasabay ng tuluyang pagkakahubad ng damit ni Catalina. Hugo lifted her by the leg and placed her o

Chapter 11Mabilis na tumakbo palabas ng bahay si Hugo at sumakay sa kotse niya. He drove out of the subdivision and into the city. Bumaba siya sa harapan ng kumpanya niya habang nakahilera ang kotse nina Kyrus, Adam, at Zero. Sinalubong siya ng tatlo at sabay na umakyat sa opisina niya."What's wrong this time?" It was Hugo."There was a sudden attack in the Dragon's Den. I know you all had quit but I need more help," saad ni Adam.Tumaas ang isang kilay ni Hugo. "Dragon's Den is the third biggest criminal organization in the Philippines. Sigurado ka bang may pumasok doon?"Kyrus handed Hugo the tab and played a CCTV footage. "It's a woman with a mask on, she's unfamiliar but her skills... I can't comment."Inabot ni Hugo ang tab at naupo sa lamesa niya. He saw the woman's clothes. It was all black, but she had a familiar figure. May mga balisong itong hawak at 'yon lang ang tanging armas niya. She was ruthlessly battling men. More armed and stronger men. But she was just dancing wit
Strawberries and Cigarettes Chapter 12
Chapter 12Hinayaan ni Hugo si Catalina. He didn't call nor text her, even if he did, her phone was off. Huminga ng malalim si Hugo at tinitigan ang mga nakalap nilang impormasyon mula a House of Virago. Catalina gave them access to her security because she know that they wouldn't disclose this type of information. Hugp silently smoked his black cigarette as he stared on the information pinned through the cork board."Catalina is the founder CEO of Garcia Corp. Akala ko nga ay iba ang may ari noon, asawa mo pala," Kyrus commented. "The house of Virago is just a subsidary company from the Garcia Corp. They have branches all over the world. Lalo na sa Espanya at sa New York. They have two legal identities since..." Tumigil si Kyrus. "Their father was a royalty."Nilingon ni Hugo ang kaibigan habang nakakunot ang noo. "Royalty?""Apparently noong nakaraan lang rin nalaman ni Catalina na mayroon silang dugong bughaw mula sa Espanya," it was Zero. "Her mother's last will was written in Lat

Chapter 13Tahimik na lumapit sina Catalina sa lamesa nina Hugo. No one noticed how they entered. It'll be much safer that way. And since Hugo, Adam, and Zero ate sitting at the last row.Natigilan si Hugo nang maupo si Catalina sa tabi niya. She was in a black bodycon cocktail dress with golden chains as details. Tumaas ang kilay ni Hugo nang makitang backless ang suot niya."You've got to be kidding me..." Hugo whispered in annoyance.Napalingon si Catalina sa sinabi ni Hugo, but before she could even react, he pulled her chair near his. Hugo's muscles flexed and showed. Napalunok si Catalina at umiwas ng tingin. Mapanukso siyang tinignan ng mga kapatid.Hugo suddenly whispered right near her ear. "You look hot babe."Kagat-labing tumalikod si Catalina mula kay Hugo. He was obviously seducing her! Napairap si Catalina at kumalma para makinig sa host. And when she was about to, Hugo couldn't help but place his hands around her w

Chapter 14Catalina took off her earpiece and placed it on the center table. Humarap siya kay Hugo na ngayon ay nakadipa habang nakaupo sa sofa nila. He took a deep breath before opening his eyes, sinalubong nito ang titig ng asawa."Tired?" He asked."You look more tired than me..."Maliit na ngumiti si Hugo kay Catalina. "Come here."Ilang saglit napatitig si Catalina sa mga kamay ni Hugo na ngayon ay nakabuka para lang salubungin siya. Catalina went close to Hugo and he immediately wrapped her hands around his waist. Pinatong ni Catalina ang isang tuhod sa sofa nang igaya siya ni Hugo sa ibabaw ng kandungan niya. Catalina sat on his lap.It's been days since the party happened. Kakauwi lang ni Hugo galing sa kumpanya at nadatnan niyang nakabestida na naman si Catalina. Hugo's hands fell to her thighs as he lifted up the cloth covering her legs."Hugo," Saway ni Catalina.Hugo grinned. "Do you know how beautif
Strawberries and Cigarettes Chapter 15
Chapter 15Hugo leaned on the balcony railing of their room. Tinitigan niya si Catalina habang nasa baba ito, malapit sa pool. She was holding a samurai. It was just 5 in the morning and who knows, maybe she drank strawberries again. Bumalik ang tingin ni Hugo sa hawak na tablet. He was reading the news about the Garcia Corp. They are the biggest investor in the business industry but they are also laying low. Walang nakakaalam kung sino ang may ari pero marami ang nang-aangkin.Hugo sighed. In the past few months, Catalina was handling Hugo's company. Pero natutukan niya pa rin ang Garcia Corp sa kabila ng laki noon. Isa sa mga investors ng Garcia Corp and mga Sinfuego at mga Parcon, these are the two largest architecture and engineering firms. The rest are investors that were personally close to the Garcias.Bumaba ulit ang tingin ni Hugo sa asawa. Naiiling na lang si Hugo nang sunod-sunod na gumalaw ang kamay ni Catalina para sugatan ang mannequin sa harapan nito. The mannequin was
