All Chapters of My Possessive Bed Buddy: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Hey sis! Long time no see.""P-Pennie?"“Your one and only pretty sister,” nakangisi niyang saad habang nakaangat ang isa niyang kilay—kilay na ang sarap ahitin.Ano naman ang ginagawa ng ‘sang ‘to rito?Tumayo ako at hinarap siya. Nag-aayos pa kasi ako ng stocks ng mga delata at noodles sa grocery store na pinagtatrabahuhan ko nang dumating siya. Kung tama ang pagkakatanda ko, mahigit dalawang taon na rin mula nang huli ko siyang makita.Hindi ko akalaing luluhod ako noon sa harap niya para lang makahiram ng pera para sa pagpapagamot ng anak ko. She did give me the money — but only after humiliating me in front of everyone, then slapping the cash right in my face. And that money couldn’t even cover a single day of my child’s hospital bills. Every time I think about it, I can’t help but feel sorry for myself all over again.I swore back then that I’d never ask her for help again, no matter what happens.Pinasadahan ako ni Pennie ng tingin mula ulo hanggang paa bago ibinalik ang tingin

“When are you coming back?” I asked Devan. After my shift at his restaurant, I went with him to the airport to see him off.He chuckled, shaking his head. “I haven’t even left yet, and you’re already asking when I’ll be back. I’m touched,” he said teasingly, flashing that playful grin of his.I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at him, though I had to admit—it was kind of nice hearing that familiar, lighthearted tone before he left.“To be honest, I don’t really know when I’ll be back. Probably not anytime soon. I only came here for Wayde and Catalina’s engagement party anyway. And besides, the restaurant’s running smoothly even without me, so I’ll be staying in the Philippines for a while.”“Devan, pwede bang huwag mo munang banggitin kay Marcia na nagkita tayo rito?” pakiusap ko. “Gusto ko siyang i-surprise kasama si Wynter pagbalik ko.”“Yeah, sure. Mag-iingat kayo rito. Kapag may problema, tawagan mo lang ako. At isa pa—balitaan mo agad ako kapag pauwi na kayo sa Pinas.”Tumango ako.

“Wynter!” tawag ko sa anak ko paglabas niya ng classroom. Agad siyang tumakbo papalapit sa akin at mahigpit na yumakap sa hita ko.Mula nang umalis si Inay, nagpasya akong tumigil muna sa pagtatrabaho para maalagaan si Wynter. Sa ngayon, masasabi kong iyon ang pinakamagandang desisyon na nagawa ko. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na ako na mismo ang nakabantay at nag-aasikaso sa kanya araw-araw.I just want to make up for all the time I missed with her. Since Wynter turned two, Inay’s been the one mostly looking after her. Now it’s my turn — I want to be there for her and make up for everything I wasn’t able to do before.Tinutupad naman ni Wayde ang pangako niyang susuportahan kami habang wala akong trabaho. Hindi siya nagkukulang sa sustento—sa katunayan, sobra-sobra pa nga ang inilalagay niya sa bank account ko. Nakakahiya nga minsan, kaya sinabihan ko siyang bawasan na lang, pero tumanggi siya. Kaya naisip kong ipunin na lang ang sobra para sa kinabukasan ni Wynter.“Mama, I want donut. Ca

Paano ko sasabihin ang totoo kay Wayde kung maayos na ang relasyon nila ni Esmeralda bilang mag-ina? Gusto kong maging honest sa kanya, pero natatakot akong masira ang masayang buhay ni Wayde ngayon—lalo’t tanggap na siya ng stepmother niya.“Wayde,” tawag ko sa kanya.“Hmmm?” tugon niya habang abala ang kamay sa pagsuklay ng buhok ko gamit ang mga daliri niya.I was lying on his chest, my arms around his waist, the sheets barely covering us. We were both naked, still warm and catching our breath. We’d made love again and again, like we were trying to make up for all the years we’d been apart.Now, everything just felt calm—like all the pain from the past five years was finally gone.With every kiss and touch, we didn’t need to say anything. Everything we felt was already there, clear as day. They say actions speak louder than words, and it’s true—tonight, I didn’t need to hear him say I love you. I could already feel it in the way he held me.“P-Please don’t leave me,” mahina kong sab

Panic hit me full force. I couldn’t even explain the fear consuming me at that moment. I was biting my nails as I paced back and forth inside the small room. My eyes were swollen from crying—I hadn’t been able to stop since the moment I woke up.I wanted so badly to escape, but there wasn’t even a single window I could squeeze through. The only way out was the door—but Alex was standing guard there, and he’s the one holding the key. No matter how much I tried to think of a way, everything led back to him."Hey sis!"I turned toward the door, startled, when I heard my sister’s irritating voice. She was grinning when I looked at her—a smug little smile that made my jaw tighten. She looked way too pleased with herself, like she’d just won something. S'ya ba? Siya ba ang nag-utos kay Alex na dukutin ako?Akmang susugurin ko na sana sýa nang bigla nýang itapat sa mukha ko ang isang pistol.“Calm down, sis. Sit down. Stay calm and fucking listen to me before I put a bullet in your head.” I s
