I feel uneasy pero nilakasan ko pa rin ang loob ko na puntahan siya sa office niya. I can't even understand kung bakit ganito na lang ako ka kabado.I knocked twice before he answered back. What does his office look a like? A mess? A playroom? Takbo ng isip ko pero agad ko rin itong pinawi. "Come in." He plainly answered after my knocks. I hesitately open his door and get in. Ramdam ko rin ang panlalamig ng aking mga kamay pero di ko na lamang iyon pinansin. His name as the new CEO of the company caught my attention. Napatitig ako saglit doon sa pangalan niya. VINCENT TRECKK DELA VEGA. I looked up only to see that he's on his table facing with his laptop. He is holding his chin while studying something. Smirk conquered on my lips because of the idea that had played in my mind. How ironic na ganito pala siya kaseryoso sa trabaho where in fact he hates the word seriousness. Ngayon ko lang siya nakitang ganyan kaseryoso. Napalunok ako ng laway. Hi

Avas was already here when I got home. It was exactly 7 o'clock in the evening nung nakauwi ako dahil may dinaanan pa ako somewhere. Nakita ko siya with her two-piece suit in the pool. She smiles when she saw me but I know it was not just a smile at all. Ang galing niya talaga magpanggap na okay kami. "Why are you here?" I asked her. I crossed my arms. "Guess why?" She replies playfully. "Looking for a fuck?" I guessed innocently. Isang hilaw na ngiti ang ibinigay ko sa kanya."Oh, no need. Just enjoying life. Hindi mo ba ako iwi-welcome couz?" Maarteng saad niya. She even pouted.  "First you're not welcom---" I was cut off. Muntikan ko nang maikuyom yung kamay ko. Everyone loves cutting me off."Vince! You're here." She said while getting out to the pool. She walks towards Vince' direction and hug him. Niyakap rin siya ni Vince pabalik. The hug last for a minute. I was just standing aloof to them.So? Pupunta pala d

No string attached. That's all what we have. I don't love him and he doesn't love me either. Just a pure sex. It sounds rude but I don't care at all. It seems that we have forgotten the right from wrong.We are now awake with our both naked bodies covered by the sheets. My head was on his hard chest and my fingers tracing his abs. I can feel his normal heart beat. I am still tired. Ilang rounds rin yun bago siya tumigil at hinayaan akong magpahinga."Ilang babae na ba yung naikama mo Vincent?" I curiously ask looking up to him. He just wear his best signature, his smirk. He fixed my hair first. Inalis yung mga buhok na nakaharang sa mukha ko."You really want to know?" Paninigurado niya. Gago ba siya? Magtatanong ako tapos ayaw ko pa lang malaman? "Why not?" Nakataas kilay kong sabi. Ano naman kung malaman ko? It is not a big deal anyway. "More than 30, I guess?" his lips form into a thin line. No question at all. Knowing him in the fir

"It's me....Grey." his voice was still the same. The same Grey I'd loved before but not the man I'm madly in love with right now."Why'd you call me?" I tried to sound like a normal friends did when they talked on phone and great, I did! I'd totally moved on."We should meet along, don't worry Vanessa will be here too. Our old friends, would you like to come?""When? Where?" It's been a long time that I'd never seen my college friends, close friends I mean."Tonight at Seattle bar." "I'll think first Grey. Bye." I ended the call."You're not coming." I was shocked when I heard him. I turned around only to see his face. I admitt that he's drop dead gorgeous but you won't really like him when he looks mad. "Why not?" I ask him confused."You're just not." His voice was full of authority but I'm not scared. Why should I at the first place?"I can do whatever I want Treckk. And I'm going out."pa

"Ainah! You came!" Bati sa akin ni Vanessa. Ang lakas ng music sa loob ng bar kaya more on sinigaw niya. Ngumiti lang ako habang papunta sa table nila."Of course!" Nakangiti kong tugon nung nakarating na ako sa pwesto nila. Isa-isa ko silang tiningnan. Malaki yung pinagbago ni Gela while Cynthia was still the same. Si Jeff ayun mas gumawapo siya, si Winter parang may nag-iba but hindi ko mafigure-out kung ano hanggang sa nagtama yung tingin namin ni Grey."Ainah."he said smiling at me. "Grey." Sabi ko naman tsaka sinuklian ang ngiti niya. They all know na ngayon lang kami nagkausap ni Grey after nung nangyari sa amin. Hindi kami nagkaroon ng closure that time cause I'd admit na natatakot ako at hindi ko pa rin kayang tanggapin na sa ganun lang mauuwi ang lahat.Walang ni isa man ang nagsalita hanggang sa naisipan ko na lang magtanong. "So kumusta na?" Changing the atmosphere."I'm engaged."nanlaki ang mata ko sa nari

Wala akong alam kung saan ako dinala ng mga paa ko. All I know was I'm here nakaupo at umiiyak. Later on, tear drops were falling. Sumasabay ang ulan sa agos ng luha ko. Andito na naman yung kaba sa dibdib ko tuwing umuulan. Tuwing umuulan may hindi magandang nangyayari. Natatakot ako sa ulan pero wala akong lakas para tumayo at magtago sa kulog.Maya-maya pa di ko na naramdaman yung mga patak ng ulan. Inangat ko yung ulo ko para tingnan yung langit pero nakita ko na naman siya dala ang isang payong."I know that you were afraid of it. Tumayo ka na Jan Ainah." He said."Why are you here? Anong ginagawa mo dito?" Bakit sa tuwing uulan siya lang palagi yung nandiyan para patahanin ako? Kung sino yung di mo ini-expect siya pa yong darating. "I don't need your help." I said in a cold tone."You're not a great lier so tumayo ka na jan Ain." I never listened to him but later on tumayo na rin ako at niyakap siya. I didn't know where did I get m

It's been a week, a week para makapag-desisyon talaga ako. Everything was now settled. Nakapag-decide na talaga akong doon na muna manirahan sa Paris. I was a kid since then na pinangarap kong pumunta ron.May matutuluyan naman ako dun kasi andun yung childhood bestfriend ko nakatira by this time. I just want to enjoy my life. And I admit part of it was because of Vincent and Grey. Nakakasakal na, kung saan-saan tuloy ako dinala ng kahibangan ko. Everything was now ready."Ainah, let's go downstairs." I raised my brow to Ell. Why is she here?"Why?" hindi na ako umangal pa pero Ell already dragged me down the stairs. Sobrang clueless ako kaya gusto ko siyang itanong kung para san 'to."Ell, what's this all--""Surprise!" and here they are. My cousins and few friends of mine but wala si Vincent. Maybe okay na rin yun kesa naman nandiyan siya."Para san 'to?" the surprise then yung mga pagkain like in a party."F

It's been three years. Years goes by and times runs fast. Maaring may nawala, may nagbago, may nanatiling ganun pa rin, at maari ring may dumating na panibago. Three years since I leave. Three years since I'd finally ended it. At sa three years na yun. Vincent Treckk Dela Vega had given me a beautiful remembrance. A souvenir that is worth remembering for and that is Vin Blip Aaron Saavedra. Yung anak namin ang magpapaalala sa akin ng bagay na yun. Siya ang magiging tanda ng aming kahapon. Noong mga panahong wala kaming inisip kundi ang tawag ng katawan namin.Si Vin ang naging bunga sa gabing yun. A forbidden night with my cousin. I can't hardly believe na nagbunga ang lahat ng ginawa namin ni Vincent. I've gotten pregnant by him. Vin was made out from our mistake but since he was born everything seems to be perfect. Giving him birth was the only perfect thing I know that I've done. Inaamin ko na at first, abortion was my first option but sooner naisip kong tinata

"Ainah! I'm glad you came! Couz! Kumusta na?!" Ell greeted us immediately when we entered in the lawn. Akala ko sina grandpa at grandpa sa mansion but base sa nadatnan ko there is something I think they are celebrating but I'm not sure what was it."I'm okay Ell." Tumingin ako sa likuran ni Ell and there they are, my family having a bonding time. Nandito pa kami sa malayo kaya they never saw us yet and I think busy sila masyado."What's the celebration all about?" tanong ko sa kanya. Vin was just wrapping his arms around my leg. How cute? "Engagement party ni Dan. Ayaw niya ng bongga kaya heto lang yung ginawa niyang party." Ibinaling niya ang atensiyon kay Vin."Hi baby... This is Vin, right? Geez! He's a mini version of Vincent!" I nod with a matching smile. Geezz I told you, kamukha niya talaga yung anak namin. For pete's sake wala pa talagang nagsasabi na kamukha ko siya or di naman kaya may pagkapareha kami. I was about to say something when

It was just 2:45 in the afternoon when Blip and I fall asleep and when the time I'm already awake and looked at my clock it says, we were really tired for almost sleeping 5 hours. Time check and it was already 7:15 in the evening. A few knocks were at the door."Come in." Ellie was revealed at the door. "Ain, kain na daw." Umupo siya sa may kama then binaling yung atensyon kay Blip na mahimbing pa ring natutulog. Ell touches his soft cheek, looked at me then smiled."What?" I innocently asked. I know, within her stares, there is something she wanted to imply and I doubt if it was good to ask about what does it mean all about."I just thought." She trailed. "You thought what?" I dared to asked. Curiousity always kills me. "If Vincent wasn't our cousin, he could be posssibly the father." I regret for asking her about what she was thinking. My heart drummed fast as soon as I'd heard it. "By the way halika na, nasa baba
