TIME FLIES SO fast when you’re happy. Malapit na kaming mag-isang taon ni Alekhine at masaya naman kami. Totoo nga talaga iyong sinasabi nilang glow up kapag nasa tamang tao ka. Chubby pa rin ako, linawin ko lang. It was just that I felt like my whole life glowed up spiritually and intangibly. Siyempre ay hindi naman talaga maiiwasan ang tampuhan at pag-aaway sa isang relasyon, but we always make sure that we will talk it out before the day ends. I will listen to him and he will do the same to me. Ang mature lang kaya nakakaganda lalo.
Ngayon naman ay nagtitipon kami ng buong pamilya ko sa tapat ng computer ni Don habang hinihintay ang result ng board exam niya. Kabadong-kabado siya at gano’n din kami kaso grabe… ang ingay-ingay ni mama.
“Refresh mo nga ulit. Baka nand’yan na iyong result. Mahina ba iyong internet? Off muna natin saglit tapos ibalik. Grabe, nakakakaba naman ‘to! Parang ako iyong nag-take ng board exam. Nand’yan na ba? Nand’yan na?”

____________________________ DJ Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene From Singapore to Cdeo, alabyow! xoxo___________________________ I DIDN’T COME with Alekhine to Singapore. Aside sa nahihiya at natatakot ako ay pakiramdam ko na hindi pa ako handa para harapin sila. Hindi pa panahon para pagtagpuin kami. I felt like this time was solely reserved for Alekhine to meet his biological mother and to know and get close to his Chinese roots. Tumulong ako sa pagsasara ng karinderya at tindahan namin nang gumabi na kasi wala naman akong masyadong ginagawa. Summer pa rin kaya wala rin akong klase. Balak ko na sanang mag-apply bilang college professor soon kasi may professional education naman na ako. “Lucho, kunin mo nga muna iyong mga hanging plants kong nakasabit d’yan sa may gate,” utos ni mama sa kapatid ko. “Ma, hindi naman ‘yan mawawala d’yan.” “Basta kunin mo na lang. Mabuti nang maka

____________________________ DJ Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene Ahmm… meet the mother is really happening 😳___________________________ I REALLY COULDN’T hide my happiness and excitement when Alekhine arrived home. Nakahanda na iyong hapunang niluto ko at cake na pagsasaluhan namin. I fired the confetti gun the moment he opened the door of his condo unit. Siyempre ay handang-handa ako sa pagbubunyi sa pagdating niya. Noong una ay nagulat siya pero mayamaya rin ay napahalakhak na siya sa tuwa. “Home sweetie home, pangga! Na-miss kita!” pambungad na bati ko sa kanya bago ko siya nilapitan. I was so close to reaching him when I slipped because I stepped on the confetti leftovers scattered on the floor. “Toyang!” nag-aalalang sigaw niya at agad akong dinaluhan at tinulungang makatayo. “May masakit ba sa ‘yo?” Napahalakhak naman ako sa katangahan ko habang alalang-alala naman i

26 Toyang ____________________________ DJ Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene There were places no matter how big, you still couldn’t fit, and it’s simply because you were not meant to become part of them.___________________________ PANAY ANG PABALIK-BALIK ko ng lakad sa may karinderya namin habang kausap ko sa phone si Alekhine. He was asking me to meet his grandparents this Saturday. They invited us over dinner. It’s still Wednesday but I’m already scared and nervous for the occasion. “Antonnia, pwede ka naman sigurong maupo habang nakikipag-usap kay Alekhine, ha, no?” saway ni mama sa akin. “Nahihilo ako sa ‘yong bata ka.” Naupo na ako sa may de-kahoy na bench ng isang table namin at nilipat sa kabilang tenga ko ang phone bago nagpatuloy sa pakikipagkausap kay Alekhine. “What if they don’t like me?” “They want to see you. I guess, you were able to i

____________________________ DJ Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene Two plus one equals three hehe xoxo___________________________ KAGIGISING KO PA lang pero bad trip na bad trip na ako. Pagbaba ko kasi mula sa kwarto ko ay iyong malakas na tugtog ng kung anong rap song na ang nabungaran ko na sinasayaw naman ni Lucho sa may sala. Basta may Neneng B-Neneng B roon. Ewan ko nga ba sa batang ito at kung anu-ano na lang talaga ang kinahihiligan. “Lucienne Cholo, ang ingay-ingay! Susko!” saway ko sa kanya. He switched off the music player and unplugged it. Inakbayan naman niya ako habang papunta kami sa may dining area. Nakow… mukhang may kailangan na naman ‘tow… “Manan—” “Utang na loob, Lucho. Nagugutom ako. Baka makain kita nang buhay. Huwag muna ngayon.” Humagikhik naman siya binitawan ako. Nagsimula na akong maghalungkat ng mga gamit namin sa kusina para magtimpla ng kape ko.

____________________________ DJ Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene Eraserheads V. Alonzo Yes, that’s my baby! xoxo___________________________ IT’S BEEN ALMOST five years since Alekhine and I decided to tie the knot. We were married even before I gave birth to our son. Simple lang iyong wedding gaya nang ni-request ko. I want to make it intimate. Hindi na baleng hindi engrande basta ay makasal ako sa lalaking mahal ko. Alekhine wanted to make it grand. I refused and told him that we should save the money for our future plans, my nearing labor included. Mahaba-habang suyuan din ang nangyari dahil gusto talaga ni Alekhine na bigyan ako ng engrandeng kasal dahil may pera naman daw siya. Saka ko pa lang siya napapayag nang sabihin kong pwede naman kaming ikasal ulit kapag naging abogado na ako para ma-defend ko iyong pagmamahal ko para sa kanya. Kinilig naman si Alekhine. Akala niya ay hindi k

____________________________ DJ/Atty. Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene From DJ Toyang to Atty. Antonnia Yulliene Villa-Alonzo 🎉___________________________ KABADONG-KABADO AKO SA para bukas. Unang araw kasi ng BAR at kahit anong paghahanda ang gawin ko, pakiramdam ko ay hindi pa rin sasapat ang mga iyon para masabing handa talaga ako. “Nahanda mo na ba lahat para bukas?” tanong ni Alekhine habang tinutulungan akong magligpit ng mga gamit ko. Sinamahan niya na naman kasi akong mag-review para sa BAR bukas. “Ga, kaya ko kaya ‘to?” sa halip ay tanong ko pabalik sa kanya. I even remembered promising him of an unprotected sex before the BAR pero mukhang malabo na talagang mangyari iyon dahil iyong kaba ko ngayon ay abot langit na. Mabuti na lang talaga at pinagpala akong lubos sa asawa ko dahil napakamaintindihin niyang tao at partner. “Ga, next year na lang kaya ako mag-take?

____________________________ DJ/Atty. Toyang🐨@AntonniaYulliene Forgiveness, just like love, takes time. It’s a consistent process of exerting efforts and sacrifices to prove that you are worthy of it. ___________________________ DAY OFF KO sa firm ngayon kaya ako na ang maghahatid-sundo kay Eheads sa araw na ito. “Baby bear, suotin mo na itong sombrero mo para makapunta na tayong school.” Agad namang lumapit ang anak ko sa akin kaya isinuot ko na sa kanya iyong teddy bear niyang bucket hat at brown We Bare Bears na backpack naman sa balikat niya. Eheads was already in the first grade. Masunuring bata naman siya. Medyo makulit pero masipag din naman. Perfect combination talaga ng attitude namin ni Alekhine. I locked our condo unit when we left and then I held Eheads’ hand as we walked towards the elevator. Mag-co-commute lang kami ng anak ko. Alekhine insisted that I should have m

This will be the end, and the next update will be the special chapter. I would like to take this time to express my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who reached this far. Thank you, thank you so much! Thank you for allowing me to share bits of my personal life in this space. Yes, almost all of the flashbacks except for the last one were from my real-life experiences. This was the reason why writing Toyang also feels like writing an autobiography. She is me and the person I aspire to be. I hope that her (my) story of hard-earned triumph inspired you to work diligently and passionately while holding on to your faith in God. This chapter will be told in the third person’s point of view and through Alekhine’s perspective. Sa uulitin, maraming salamat sa pagsama sa aking makitawa at matuto sa simpleng kwento ng buhay ni DJ/ Atty. Toyang. SA KANILANG MALIIT na tahanan, bandang alas cuatro ng umaga ay narinig ni Alekhine ang mumunting hagulhol ng kanyang amang karar
