Stacy was declared positive with COVID. Now, they were all in Team Huddles to talk to everyone and ask if anyone has made contact with her on the days that she was sneaking out. About four people from the kitchen staff expressed that they were exposed, while about two of their employees also said they've had an interaction. Every one of them will have to take the COVID test to see if they are positive. "We still have no news from the hospital of Stacy's whereabouts. For now, all we know is that she will be held in quarantine until further notice. For now, I'd like to reiterate to everyone that we need to follow all the mandated health protocols to make sure we don't get compromised. Safety is the number one priority. If you don't care enough for yourself, care enough for others who are breadwinners of their families. Do not compromise anyone."Those were the words she emphasized during their call. "That was really direct to the point Sari. Thank you." she heard Austin as they wer

"How did you get in?" she calmly asks. She sat in the couch, now livid of what is going on. How did he managed to get into the hotel? "Money makes the world go round Sari. Kahit gaano pa kahigpit ang security ng hotel na 'to, there's always a way to make it inside without people knowing.""Why are you here Collin?"The room has turned dark as he let down all of the blinds. Na para bang kung may makakakita man sa kanila ay pwedeng makaapekto sa mga binabalak niya."I want revenge Sari! That's all I want!""Revenge for what?""For the way you left me hanging." he cupped her face, making her feel the cold exterior of the gun he was holding. "You did it to yourself Collin. You were becoming worst.""Worst? Isn't that the point of all of it?""No.""'Tang Ina mo Sari! Binigay ko sa'yo lahat.""I never asked you for anything, except to help me. That was all there is.""Right..." he nodded continuously, "Oo nga pala. Pangangailangan mo nga lang pala ang dapat na importante. I don't matter

"How long have I been here?" she turns to her father.They were sitting in front of the garden once again."A week.""Has it been a week already." it's more of a statement rather than a question."It has been."She lift her head up and saw the bright sky.Everything in here seemed really bright and the daylight seemed really long. "Hindi mo pa ba na-mimiss ang mga kaibigan mo?""Syempre naman na-miss. Pero mas na-miss kita pa.""At na-miss din kita. Pero alam mo namang hindi pwedeng manatili ka dito ng matagal di ba?""Hindi ba talaga pwede?""Anak, hindi mo pa oras. Hindi pa ito ang tamang panahon.""I just find it tiring to come back to a life that's been messier than the usual," she sighed, "Papa, hindi ako naging mabuting tao. And I think, for the first time in my life, this is the only place that made me safe and comfortable. This is the only place I seem to feel at peace.""Naiintindihan ko naman kung bakit," her father held her head and let it lean in his shoulders, "But peace

He opened the door as wide as he can and pushed her right inside the house.The entire place was silent but he could see her eyes roaming through the entire place.He wheeled her into the living room and that was when a sudden burst of welcome back words were said. Her friends were already there, in their masks and with a bit of distance from each other. Somehow, this entire pandemic changed everyone's perspective about safety.She smiled as she received the flowers that J and Travis handed to her. Shane who was is now about 8 months pregnant looked really lovely in her sunflower yellow dress. Her hair still has that undercut part.In her peripheral vision, she could see food already prepared in the table."We're so happy you're back!" Melai cheered. She can already notice the small growth of her tummy. And the various small talks began. Her house seemed a little less lonelier this time. They hurried to the table and took seats in each corners. In US holidays, today is exactly th

She could hear herself moan, her body felt hot, feverish even. She moved her body up and down, feeling the cold length of his tongue down under.She's naked and already sweating, it was as if her air conditioned room was not working. She clasped the sheets behind her while her other hands reached for his hair, gripping it like it was her only lifeline. Napapaungol siya sa kakaibang sensasyong nararamdaman niya ng mga oras na 'yun. She experienced pleasure before, yet, this one is different. Every single bit of it lingered to her entire being. Her body arched as his lips once again sucked at her folds. "Don't stop." she moaned.His lips started to move forward, going up to her legs and then her torso. She smiled as she looked down to see who the mysterious man is."Hello Sari." Collin's husky voice filled her ears. "No."She suddenly stood up, just in time that the lightning stroke."Shit." she cupped her head, now realizing that it was just a dream. She reached for the water bo
