The last name I never planned to keep Chapter 8
CHAPTER #08 SIENNA POV It's already six o'clock, nagbyahe pa ako papunta sa restaurant. One of the most expensive and beautiful fine dining sa buong bansa, ang Valencia-Lee Prime. Pag-aari ng pamilya Lee, kilala hindi lang sa bansa kundi maging sa iba’t ibang panig ng mundo dahil sa chain of luxury restaurants nila. Alam ko ang lugar na ito. Naririnig ko sa mga gala at sa usapan ng mga sosyal, pero ngayon lang ako makakapasok dito. At to be honest, hindi naman talaga ako interesado. Pagbaba ko ng sasakyan, sinalubong agad ng malamlam na golden lights na galing sa mga chandelier na nakikita pa lang sa malalaking glass windows. Sa labas pa lang, makikita mo na agad ang mga nakaparadang mamahaling kotse. Rolls Royce, Bentley, Ferrari. Puro world-class. Halatang lahat ng pumapasok dito, hindi ordinaryong tao. And I belong to that kind of luxurious lifestyle. Huminga ako nang malalim. I chose something simple pero disente. Hindi loud, hindi rin flashy. White long sleeves na tucked i

CHAPTER #07 SIENNA POV Monday morning. ER rotation. I had four hours of sleep and three missed calls from media networks. One voicemail from Lolo. “Just be careful what you say to the press, Sien. This whole thing is bigger than us now.” And one message from Dorian: “Do you want me to say something first?” But what do you say when your heart is split in two? When the world wants a love story… And the truth is a waiting room? The hospital lobby was crowded when I stepped out for lunch. Then I saw them. Reporters. Microphones. Cameras. Bright smiles hiding sharper questions. I froze mid-step. Too late. “Dra. Siena! Dra. Diaz!” “Can we get a statement?” “Is it true you and Mr. Valencia are engaged?” “Was the gala photo your soft launch?” “How long have you been dating? Was it arranged?” “Are you in love?” The words hit like bullets. I took a step back, but the crowd swarmed closer. I could feel my throat closing my chest tightening. And then I saw her. Jamie’s mom

CHAPTER #6 SIENNA POV "Charity gala. Formal attire. Plus one mandatory." That was the message. From Lolo. And guess who my plus one was? I stared at my reflection. Champagne-colored silk. A soft slit on the side. Hair pulled up, with a few strands loose to soften my face. I looked… elegant. Like someone who belonged to Dorian’s world. Even if I never really did. Dumating siya sa pickup location not in his usual SUV, but in a sleek black car that probably costs more than my entire medical school tuition. He stepped out in a tailored black suit. Clean. Crisp. Lethal. Pagbukas niya ng pinto, nagkatitigan kami. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ako natigilan. Maybe it was the way he looked at me not with awe, not with charm… Just attention. "Okay ka lang?" tanong niya, casual. Tumango ako. "Let's get this over with." The ballroom was glowing in soft lights. Crystal chandeliers. Golden table settings. Photographers. Socialites. CEOs. Political names. And us. "Smile," he whispered haba

Chapter #05SIENNA POVPagod na pagod ako. Twelve-hour shift. Dalawang pedia case. Isang hindi natuloy na lunch break. At isang maliit na batang pasyente na halos hindi na humihinga nung dinala sa ER.Tapos biglang may text si Lolo.“Sien, padaan si Dorian d’yan. May naiwan raw siyang files sa Lolo niya, baka pwede mo na rin ibigay. Pakisuyo na lang.”Seriously?I thought we were done for the week. Isa lang dapat ‘yung fake date, diba? Bakit parang may plot twist na hindi ko napirmahan?Nasa pedia nurse station ako, kalalabas lang ng isang case, when I felt someone’s presence behind me.“Busy ka?”Paglingon ko, andun siya. Suot pa rin ang usual niyang neutral-tone na damit. Clean. Composed. At oddly… out of place sa hospital setting.“Medyo?” sagot ko, pinipilit maging civil. “Akala ko may schedule lang tayo pag kailangan.”He raised an envelope. “Files daw. Lolo errands.”Hinablot ko ‘yon nang may ngiti. Plastic nga lang. “Next time, pwede mong i-book sa courier.”“Wow. Noted.”Tahim

Chapter #04PLAYING ALONG.SIENNA POV“Be at Café Le Monte. 4PM sharp.”That was the text from Dorian. No emojis. No greetings. Walang kahit anong effort.“Busy ako,” reply ko agad kahit hindi naman. Routine ko ang lahat kaya para sa'kin trabaho, responsible, profession na matagal kung pinaghirapang makuha. ‘Yun lang.“I'm busy too. Or maybe you want… kailangan kitang puntahan d'yan.”Napasinghap ako at luminga-linga sa gilid.Parang binubuhay niya ang inis ko. Ano bang problema niya? Kung busy siya… ba’t pa siya makipagkita sa akin.“Puntahan kita d'yan?” message niya ulit dahil wala akong reply.“KAYA KO NAMAN!”Kung hindi ko alam ang context, iisipin mong may business pitch akong pupuntahan hindi fake date.Nasa harap ako ng salamin, nakasuot ng neutral-colored dress na hindi masyadong effort pero hindi rin mukhang wala akong pake. Simple makeup. Loose curls. Just enough to look convincingly interested.Pero habang nagda-drive ako papunta sa café, hindi mawala sa utak ko.Ano bang

Chapter #03SIENNA POVA quiet Italian restaurant.“Dinner lang.” Yun ang usapan namin. No pressure. No expectations.Pero habang binabaybay ko ang daan pa-restaurant, bakit parang hindi lang basta dinner ang pakiramdam? Siguro dahil matagal ko ng iniwasan ang ganitong dinner. Kahit mga kaibigan lang. Wala na akong oras.Pagdating ko, nandoon na siya. Naka-black turtleneck. Mas relaxed ang ayos. Pero elegant pa rin. Too elegant for someone na ayaw daw sa arranged marriage. Compatible kami.Tumayo siya agad nung nakita ako. Akala mo formal meeting, pero may softness sa mata niya.“Right on time,” he said.“You sound surprised.”“I am. Most doctors I know are late.”“Most CEOs I know cancel last minute.”Napangiti siya. “Touché.”The restaurant was quiet. Dim lights. Warm wood interiors. Walang masyadong tao. The kind of place na pinipili ng mga taong ayaw mapansin.He ordered red wine. I asked for water. Ayaw kung uminom. Matagal na no'ng huli.“So,” he started, swirling his glass. “Le
