Antonella."Ten cuidado con eso, Mercy... you be careful with that. Antonella needs it badly. It's for her health. They don't have it here in Italy."I whirled around and looked at Mamá. She seemed a bit agitated as she gave instructions to the maids around her. I crossed my arms, and my shoulders sagged."Por favor, háblales en tagalo, Mamá. Todos son filipinos. Tú también lo eres," sa salitang columbian ito. Gusto ko na magsalita si mama sa salitang tagalog dahil purong mga Pinoy naman ang mga katulong namin, pero ang tigas niya talaga! Kaya minsan pinag uusapan siya ng mga ito. "No quero hablar en ese idioma." Humalukipkip na siya. Ayaw raw niya sa salitang tagalog. Hindi raw niya ito gusto!Minsan iniisip ko kung talagang itinakwil na ba ni mama ang pagiging Pilipino niya. Pero minsan naririnig ko siya sa salitang tagalog sa tuwing tumatawag siya ng Pilipinas. Iyon nga lang ay purong ka-malditahan ang pinapakita niya sa mga tauhan roon.Ibang iba si Papa kay Mama. Pinay si Mama

I don't really know why I'm still hoping.My heart is hollow, and you are the only person who can fill the emptiness.-Anastacia Dream-****Anastacia.Every woman has a dream—a dream of having a loving man who will cherish and love her forever, a man who will do everything for his woman, a devoted man to his woman for a lifetime.But this type of man will only exist in my dream because, in reality, I have devoted five years of my life to a man who does not even replicate a single feeling towards me.My name is Anastacia Dream. I am the personal assistant of a multibillionaire businessman in the country. I'm in love with my boss and will do everything to make him happy.I excel in my job. He can never find another me in his life. I know my worth in his company."Tacia! My goodness! Kanina pa nagwawala ang dragon! Nasaan ka na ba, gurl?""M-Malapit na ako, Tin. T-Teka lang—" Tumawad agad ako. Nagmamadali na ako dahil late na ako, pero ang malas ko naman. Kamuntik na akong masagasaan.

Anastacia.Tame."You're kidding, right?" He smug, not believing in what I just said."No. I'm not, Sir!"He smirks and shakes his head."Okay, I understand. How much do you want? Would another ten percent increase in your salary work?"Namilog ang mga mata ko.Noon pa man, sa tuwing gusto kong mag resign ay hindi siya pumapayag, at tinataasan ang sweldo ko. At ako naman na tanga, ay walang nagawa. Inisip ko rin na malaki-laki rin ang sweldo, kaya hindi na ako nagpatuloy. Pero iba na ngayon! Iba na ito!"No, Sir…" Napailing ako."Hindi ko na po tatangapin ang increase sa salary. Malaki na po ang naitulong ninyo sa akin noon, at—""Okay, twenty percent increase, Tacia," he looked at me desperately.Bumagsak lang ulit ang panga ko at hindi na ako makapag salita.Bahagya siyang umayos at saka tumingala sa kisame."You are driving me crazy. So, this is what you want, right? A twenty percent increase? Okay! That's fine with me, Tacia. I can give you that," he smiles proudly as he convinc

Diezel.Ask.I kept pacing back and forth.She's not here yet. What is happening? Why the hell is she late today? Is she applying for a job at the other companies? Damn this.I paused, taking a deep breath to calm myself, but my temper refused to settle down. I had a lot on my mind, and it was driving me crazy.Maaga pa naman, pero pinagpapawisan na ako. I arrived early today, and it was still dark when I got to the office. I didn't sleep here last night because I stayed at Reeve's place. I need to calm down a bit so I can think more clearly."Is she not yet here, Tin?" My brows latch as I look at him."W-Wala pa, Sir…" His lips quivered.Damn again!I glanced at the others, who were rattling in their seats. I slammed the door of my office and paced again.I'm feeling edgy, like my skin is itching for something, and I can't take it.Tatawagan ko na sana siya, pero biglang bumukas ang pinto at ang mukha niya agad ang nakita ko."Good morning, Sir Dennis Ezequil!" She widely smiled as

Anastacia's POVCannot.Bumagsak ang panga ko nang makalabas ng kotse. Nasa rest house niya kami. Medyo malayo nga naman ito sa syudad. Kulang kulang nasa tatlong oras.I was hungry back then, but I sleep from it. Natulog ako at hinayaan na si Diezel, at nagising na lang nang maramdaman ko na hindi na gumagalaw ang sasakyan.Wala siya sa loob ng sasakyan ng magising ako. Kaya heto, bumaba na ako para hanapin siya.Ito ang pangalawang pagkakataon na napadpad ako rito sa rest house niya. Ang una ay noong ipinagawa niya ito. Hindi pa iyon tapos, pero ngayon? Nakamamangha na ang hitsura ng rest house villa niya.I walked closer to see the ocean. Diezel's magnificent yacht is a beauty. The long pole it has holds beautiful sparks of rainbow lights. My lips pursed, and my heart began to feel the warmth. Sa tagal ko na siyang kilala ay alam ko na ang lahat tungkol sa buhay niya. Kahit pa siguro kulay ng brief niya, ay alam ko!I'm not just a mere secretary working under him because I'm obse
