Ayah Solene’s Point of View

“Hays…” buntong-hininga ko.

Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala sa mga nangyari nitong mga nakaraang araw. The rushed wedding, the secret house, and that crazy hickey na kapag naaalala ko ay automatic na bumabaliktad ang sikmura ko. Gustong-gusto ko siyang pigain sa mga palad ko. Nakakagigil!

Pero sige, trabaho muna. Reality check. Del Valle Holdings doesn’t care kung may trust issues ako kay Dave. The company runs with or without my drama. Kaya ayan, naglalakad ako papasok ng opisina, mukha kong serious, kahit sa isip ko gusto ko siyang sampalin gamit ang stapler.

Sa office, tahimik lang ako. Ako si Ayah Solene Cruz—coordinator at project manager, na nakatago sa gilid. Pero deep inside, I knew my role had shifted. Ako ang secret weapon ng isang CEO na ang lakas maka-heart attack.

“Miss Cruz, your notes on section B?” tanong ni Dave, casual. Ibang klase talaga.

Nag-abot ako ng papel, deadma face. Pero nang makita kong nakangisi siya, gusto kong sabunutan sarili k

  • Waking Up Next To Him Again   CHAPTER 10

    Daphne’s Point of View“Babe? Why is the door locked? Is something wrong?”Hindi ko pa rin malimutan ang araw iyon. Yung pagkakataon na nadatnan ko si Dave at si Ayah na magkasama sa office. Their faces were too close, their voices too low pero may diin. Nang tanungin ko, sabi nila, work problem lang. Convincing ang mga salita, pero hindi ang kanilang mga mukha.Ayah, that innocent little girl—hindi siya marunong magsinungaling. Her eyes were trembling, her hands couldn’t keep still. Too pure, too transparent. At si Dave, kahit anong pilit ng ngiti, I know that look. I’ve seen it before—when he tries to bury the truth.That night, I told myself to believe. Mas madaling tanggapin na trabaho lang iyon kaysa isipin na may mas malalim pa. Pero kahit anong pilit kong itulak palayo ang hinala, bumabalik at bumabalik pa rin.Sa mga sumunod na linggo, nagsimula kong mapansin ang mga pagbabago. Dave was always late—sa dinners, sa meetings, kahit sa dates na matagal ko nang pinlano. Lagi siyang

  • Waking Up Next To Him Again   CHAPTER 8

    Dave Lorian’s Point of ViewI went straight to our secret house. As soon as I opened the door, silence greeted me. I headed to the bedroom, and there she was—sleeping, completely unaware of my presence.Her hair was spread across the pillow, her face faintly smiling even in her dreams. I sat beside her, not moving, afraid to wake her. The weight on my chest was unbearable—guilt, exhaustion, and longing all tangled with every beat of my heart.I reached out and touched her hair gently, carefully. Just holding it felt like I could somehow fix everything I had broken. I noticed the little twitch of her eyebrows in sleep, and I couldn’t help but smile, quietly, to myself.“I broke her heart in one day—the wedding she didn’t deserve, leaving her on our first night, and now… this silence.”I took a deep breath, forcing myself to stay calm. I wanted to hold her tighter, to tell her that no matter what happened, she was the only one I wanted, the only one I loved. But I had to wait. In the sti

  • Waking Up Next To Him Again   CHAPTER 7

    Dave Lorian’s Point of ViewHindi ko makakalimutan ang araw na iyon.Ayah stood in front of me, hands trembling, eyes full of fear and anger at the same time. “I’m pregnant,” she said. Her voice cracked, pero ang titig niya matalim, para bang handa siyang ipaglaban ang bata kahit ako mismo ang kalaban niya.I wanted to smile. God knows I wanted to grab her and say, “Thank you. Thank you for giving me something real in this hollow life.” Inside, I was rejoicing. My child. Our child. The very thought filled a hole I never knew was there.Pero hindi ko puwedeng ipakita. Hindi ako puwedeng magmukhang mahina. Not as a Lorian, not as a CEO, not as a man who’s supposed to keep everything under control.So instead, I crossed my arms, kept my voice flat. “We’ll handle this,” I said. Parang kontrata lang na pinipirmahan.Ayah’s lips pressed tight, hurt flashing in her eyes. She thought I didn’t care. Truth was, I cared too much.“Damn it, Dave,” I thought that day. “You just ruined the best mom

  • Waking Up Next To Him Again   CHAPTER 6

    Ayah Solene’s Point of ViewDays have passed after I confronted Dave about my pregnancy. Totoo nga ang sabi nila, life is hell. “Lord, karma ko na ba ‘to?”Pagkauwi ko ng bahay matapos ang lahat, humagulhol ako. Sinisi ko ang sarili ko. Is this the fruit of being a careless woman? No, never akong naging pabaya sa sarili ko. I suffered a lot back when I was disowned by my family and lived alone. Yes, pwede kong gawin ang lahat ng gusto ko. I had the freedom, the peace I needed, pero wala akong sandalan. If only I had good parents, ‘yung understanding, caring, at nagbibigay ng needs ng anak nila… hindi sana ganito ang buhay ko.Umiyak ako nang umiyak habang hinihimas ang aking tiyan. I have so much love to give for this child, pero higit ang awa. The world turns and I am below. Hindi ito ang inaasam kong mangyari sa pagkakaroon ng sariling pamilya. Ayoko siyang magdusa sa kasalanang nagawa ko. Pero ayoko rin siyang mawala.“Kung may award ang pagiging pinakabobo sa love life, ako na ang

  • Waking Up Next To Him Again   CHAPTER 5

    Third Person’s point of ViewKinabukasan, nag-rush ulit siya sa malapit na pharmacy para bumili ng pregnancy test. Pagdating pa lang, para siyang contestant sa question and answer segment—ang dami niyang tanong sa pharmacist. “Sure kayo, tama yung paggamit ko? Hindi ba dapat mas yung mas mahal ang bilhin ko? Baka naman fake ‘yung mura?”The pharmacist chuckled, reassuring her. “Ma’am, tama naman po ang paggamit n’yo. Kahit anong brand, reliable po.”Pag-uwi, she locked herself in the bathroom. One test. Positive. Another. Positive pa rin. Clear. Bold. Dalawang linya. “Wow, congrats, Solene Cruz. May sarili ka nang koleksyon. Pregnancy Test Edition: All Positive.”Hanggang sa nagamit na niya lahat. Nakahilera sa sink, parang art installation ng pagkataranta niya.Her knees wobbled, hands trembling. “Hindi puwede. Baka expired lang? Or worse… marketing strategy lang ng manufacturer ‘to para mapabili ako ng sampung piraso.”Then her phone rang. Mr. CEO.Automatic na bumaba ang daliri n
