The Afterburn of Tempation CHAPTER
I didn’t go home that night.After everything that happened, I couldn’t bring myself to face Mama, let alone see the man who had just turned my entire world upside down.I knew I needed time.Time to breathe.Time to think.And most importantly, time to understand what had just happened.Luckily, Marco was there.He didn’t ask too many questions. He simply offered to take me to their house, knowing that I wasn’t ready to go back to mine.Pagdating namin sa bahay nila, sinalubong kami ng mama niya, who immediately noticed my swollen eyes.“Alessa? Anak, anong nangyari sa’yo?”I tried to smile.“I’m okay po, Tita. Medyo may nangyari lang sa bahay.”She looked at Marco, silently asking for an explanation.“Ma, dito muna siya tonight,” Marco said. “She needs some time.”Without asking anything further, his mother approached me and gently held my hand.“Come inside, anak. You can stay here as long as you need.”That night, I barely slept.I was lying on the guest room bed, staring at the c

“It’s complicated.”“Then make it simple for me.”Mama looked at me, her eyes beginning to water. She opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, Tita Bing spoke.“Enough na, Bing. I think it’s time.”Mama immediately turned toward her.“Please. Not like this.”“Then when? Hanggang kailan mo balak ipagkait sa kanya ang katotohanan?”“I’m trying to protect my daughter!”“And I understand that. Pero hindi mo ba nakikita? Nandito na siya. Hindi na natin puwedeng ibalik sa dati ang lahat.”I stood between them, trying to understand what they were talking about.“Wait. What truth? Anong pinagsasabi ninyo?”Nobody answered.I looked at the man standing a few steps away.He was wearing a dark polo shirt, his hands clasped in front of him. He looked older than I remembered—or perhaps I was simply seeing him differently now.His eyes occasionally shifted toward me, as though he wanted to approach but was afraid of what I might do.“Ma, bakit ayaw mong sabihin sa akin?”“Alessa, anak,

I’ll make the arrival at Alessa’s house the turning point of the chapter. The first half will be warm and nostalgic with Marco, then gradually shift into an uncomfortable, mysterious atmosphere. I’ll keep the identity of the unexpected visitor unrevealed to the readers, ending right when Alessa recognizes him.The afternoon quickly turned into evening, and before we knew it, it was already time to call it a day.After spending hours swimming, eating, taking pictures, and catching up on each other’s lives, one by one, our friends started saying their goodbyes.“Guys, thank you so much for today! We should definitely do this again,” excited na sabi ni Gail habang niyayakap sina Julia at Shane.“Of course! Hindi na puwedeng next year pa ulit!” sagot ni Franz.“Next time, overnight naman tayo!” dagdag ni Aaron.“Count me in!” mabilis na sagot ko.“See? May commitment na tayo!” natatawang sabi ni Shane.After exchanging a few more hugs and promises to keep in touch, nagsimula na kaming mag

The afternoon quickly turned into evening, and before we knew it, it was already time to call it a day.After spending hours swimming, eating, taking pictures, and catching up on each other's lives, one by one, our friends started saying their goodbyes."Guys, thank you so much for today! We should definitely do this again," excited na sabi ni Gail habang niyayakap sina Julia at Shane."Of course! Hindi na puwedeng next year pa ulit!" sagot ni Franz."Next time, overnight naman tayo!" dagdag ni Aaron."Count me in!" mabilis na sagot ko."See? May commitment na tayo!" natatawang sabi ni Shane.After exchanging a few more hugs and promises to keep in touch, nagsimula na kaming magligpit ng mga natitirang gamit. The boys helped carry the trays and folding chairs, while the girls made sure na walang naiwan sa cottage.I was fixing the strap of my bag when Marco approached me."Ready?"I nodded. "Yeah. Let's go.""Hatid na kita.""Sure ka? Baka mapagod ka na naman sa kakahatid sa akin."He

“Alessa! Dito ka sa gitna!” sigaw ni Gail habang inaayos ang puwesto namin para sa panibagong group picture.Napailing na lang ako bago lumapit sa kanila. The afternoon was getting even more beautiful, with the golden sunlight reflecting on the flowing water. The cool breeze made the entire place feel even more relaxing, and the sound of our laughter seemed to blend perfectly with the music playing in the background.“Okay, everyone! Smile!” sigaw ni Shane habang hawak ang phone ni Franz.Nagsiksikan kaming lahat sa harap ng cottage. Marco stood beside me, casually placing his arm around my shoulder as the others started making silly faces.“One, two, three!”“Cheese!”Sunod-sunod ang kuha namin, from the usual peace signs to random candid shots. May ilan pang pictures na halos hindi na kami magkatinginan sa sobrang kakatawa.“Wait! Tingnan niyo nga ’to!” natatawang sabi ni Aaron habang tinitingnan ang mga kuha sa phone.“Ang pangit ko rito!” reklamo ni Franz.“Ikaw naman talaga ang p
The Afterburn of Tempation CHAPTER 131: Leeway
Alessa’s Point of ViewAfter just a minute of driving, nakarating na rin kami sa resort dito kami sa Mimbalot Falls Resort nag-setup ng cottage. The moment Marco parked the car, I scanned the surroundings. The cool breeze, the soothing sound of rushing water, and the lush green trees instantly made me feel at ease. Bababa na sana ako bitbit ang bag ko, pero mabilis na umikot si Marco para kuhanin 'yung gamit ko."Marco, ako na! Kaya ko naman," tanggi ko sabay hila nang kaunti sa strap ng backpack ko."Nako, Alessa, chill ka lang! Ako na rito," nakangiting giit niya, not letting go of the bag until I gave in. Napa-roll na lang ang eyes ko playfully. "Fine, thank you!"Paglakad namin papunta sa cottage, agad kaming napansin ng grupo."Woah! Dumating na ang stars of the day!" sigaw agad ni Franz habang nakataas pa ang baso."Alessa! Oh my gosh, girl! Long time no see!" tili naman ni Gail habang tumatakbo lapit sa akin para mag-hug.Agad akong pinalibutan nina Franz, Aaron, Shane, Gail,
