Lahat ng Kabanata ng Shadows of My Dark Past (Book 2): Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

Liam’s P.O.V. Nagising akong wala na sa loob ng kuwarto ko si Diane. Kahit medyo nanlalabo pa ang paningin ko ay nagmamadali akong bumangon, tumakbong tinungo ang balcony, mabilis na hinawi ang kurtina at binuksan ang glassdoor sa pag-asang makikita ko siya roon na nagpapahangin lang… pero wala siya. Then, I hurriedly strode to the comfort room. “Diane, are you there?” Ilang ulit ko siyang kinatok doon. Nag-aalala ako na baka kung ano nang nangyari sa kanya hanggang sa namalayan kong hindi ‘yon naka-lock mula sa loob, pero wala rin namang tao roon nang pinasya kong pasukin ‘yon. Did Diane leave me alone? I pressed my lips together. There was a swift stab of grief in my chest because I couldn’t accept that ‘yes’ would be the answer to my question. Wala na rin ang bag niyang nasa bedside table

Liam’s P.O.V. “Ewan ko sa’yo! Hmm, okay lang ba talaga sa’yo kung ikaw na lang ang maglilipat ng mga ‘yan?” Diane placed her hands and began to loosen something from her back. “Yup, easy-peasy… you already cooked for these. Now, let me give you my service.” I even held my chest and slightly bent my back to bow at her like a servant. “Hindi lang ako makapaniwala na ang sikat na CEO na si Liam Arthur Evangelista ay pagsisilbihan lang naman ako ngayong gabi. Okay, if you insist. I’ll just wait for you there.” Diane smiled before she removed the white apron, placed it on the rack, and went out of the kitchen with her things. It didn’t take long for me to assemble the stainless food cart and transfer all the foods while Diane was patiently waiting there. This would be our very first time to eat together after D

Liam’s P.O.V.   “I’m sorry, Diane. Were you saying something?” Natataranta kong tanong, habang hindi ako makatingin sa kanya nang diretso.   Sobrang bilis tuloy ng tibok ng puso ko ngayon. Pakiramdam ko ay sandamakmak din na pawis ang nararamdaman kong patuloy na lumalabas sa katawan ko. I nervously chuckled after. I guessed I would be crazier than I had ever thought.   “Kanina pa kaya ako may sinasabi sa’yo, pero hindi ka naman nagsasalita.” Ngumuso si Diane na parang batang inagawan ng lollipop. Ang sarap niya tuloy halikan.   Little did she know na pinagpapantasyahan ko na pala siya. Naramdaman ko na naman tuloy ang matigas na parte sa gitna ng katawan ko na ngayon nga’y nakatayo na. Agad ko namang tinakpan ‘yon ng unan.   Holy, crap! Liam, relax…   “Hmm, ano bang nangyayari sa’yo? You look so tensed. Wait,” sabi

Diane’s P.O.V. “Good morning, gorgeous. How’s your sleep? Want to have some breakfast with me?” I woke up with someone planting small kisses on my face. Then, I saw how Liam greeted me with a heartfelt smile on his lips. It was indeed a good morning for me. Hindi ko maiwasan ang ngumiti. Mukhang sinasadya na niyang palabasin palagi ang dimple sa kanang pisngi dahil sa sinabi ko sa kanya kagabi. Nakabihis na siya ng suit na kulay gray at may dalang stainless tray ng pagkain. I was still lying on his huge couch before I decided to drag myself away from it. But unlike last night where I was completely naked, my body was covered with a comforter now—making me feel relaxed during my entire sleep. It felt like my father visited me on my dreams and he was reminding me of something he taught me throughout the years. Hindi lang ‘yon, parang pinapaalala rin

Diane’s P.O.V. “We’re here, sissy. Oh my God, I’m so excited to wear my bikini!” I heard how Karen excitedly screamed. I wasn’t looking at her, pero alam kong nakataas pa ang mga kamay niya sa ere. Buong araw lang yata akong tulala sa naging biyahe namin. Nakakahiya tuloy sa kaibigan ko na nagsilbing driver for two hours from Quego del Mar until here, to think that she even started driving at five in the morning. Iniisip ko pa rin kasi ‘yong nangyari sa’kin two days ago. Sino ba naman kasi ang baliw na taong maglalagay ng patay na pusa sa loob ng locker ko? At talagang ginandahan niya pa ‘yong kahon para lang masabing regalo niya sa’kin ‘yon? I was mad at myself too. Ang tanga ko kasi para excited na buksan ‘yon sa pag-aakalang kay Liam nanggaling ‘yon. Karen immediately reported the incident to th
