Kumunot ang noo ko sa tinuran niya. I made him jealous? How come?   Mahina ko siyang itinulak palayo sa'kin at tinitigang mabuti.   "Anong pinagsasabi mo?" Kunot-noong tanong ko sa kaniya.   His brow shot up as he stared back at me. Maya-maya'y nag-iwas siya ng tingin, hindi na kayanan ang pakikipagtitigan sa akin ng matagal.   Problema nito?   "I-I'm sorry.." He whispered.   Mas lalong lumalim ang gitla sa noo ko dahil sa winika niya. Why is he saying sorry and what is he sorry for?   I wrinkled my nose in confusion, "Why are you saying s

Time flies so fast. Bukas ay December 31 na, this year is about to end and another year is about to start.   After we celebrated Christmas, our whole family went to one of Aunt Daiana, Uncle Aqui's wife's, private beach resorts. Up until now, we're here in the private beach resort in Bohol to celebrate New Year. This place is where we all get to unwind and relax. Nandito rin kasi ipinatayo nina Dad ang resthouse. So basically, this private resort is like the family's safe space. No one else comes in this resort but us, De Bonnevies or anyone else from Aunt Daiana's family.   Nagkalat ang mga lalaki kong pinsan sa kung saang bahagi ng resort. Lander jokingly said he was said 'coz there were no girls he could flirt with, ayan tuloy at nahampas siya ni Dad ng sungkod niya at binatukan pa siya ng daddy niyang si Uncle Eros.

"Magtitwenty-six ka na." Natatawang saad ko kay Ares na nakayakap sa akin mula sa likod. He groaned and buried his face on the hollow of my neck. I chuckled because of his reaction. "Feeling old yet?" "Shut up, Narelle." He said as he clicked his tongue in annoyance. Umalingawngaw sa apat na sulok ng kwarto ko ang malakas kong tawa. Mangiyak-ngiyak pa ako habang parang tangang tumatawa. Ang lalaki sa likod ko naman ay hindi ko makita ang ekspresyon. He tightened his hug on me. His fingers accidentally touched my bare bellybutton that made me laugh more. "Ares, that tickles!" Napatigil ako sa pagtaw

The first thing I felt as soon as I opened my eyes was my soreness down there. Napapikit akong muli nang maalala ko na naman ang mga nangyari kagabi hanggang kaninang madaling araw. In a span of four hours, we did a lot of nasty things. Well, we did have a break. It wasn't a continuous exercise. Everytime we got tired, we would just lay on the bed while lazy kissing and then it would lead us to doing it again. I perfectly remembered how he was gentle at first. Like he’s stopping himself from doing something that would hurt me. But it did hurt the first time his thing went inside of me. He would say

Umusbong ang tensyon sa buong dining hall ng manoir.   “He got me pregnant.”   Parang sirang plaka na nagpaulit-ulit ang mga katagang iyon sa utak ko. Ni-hindi ako makagalaw mula sa kinauupuan ko. Masyado akong nagulat sa rebelasyon ng babaeng.. ina ng boyfriend ko at nabuntis ni Papa.   God! I hate to be rude but I couldn't even look at her the same way as before! I couldn't even call her Tita Solene, my boyfriend’s mother! All I can think of is that she is my late father's mistress!   Oh my God! My father has a mistress!?   Tuluyan na ngang tumulo ang luha ko. Walang nakapagsalita sa amin pagkatapos noong rebelasyon ni Tita. Masyado kaming nagulat at pino
