All Chapters of JUST ANOTHER SCANDAL: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Hanna"Vann" I called her for the nth time pero nanatili syang nakatulala kaya lumapit ako sa kanya and sat down in front of her but it wasn't enough for me to get her attention. "Vann"She looked at me but I can't read anything from her facial expression. She is like this, nakatulala at tahimik lang and things will get worst at night dahil iiyak lang sya ng iiyak.She is staying with me after nya ma discharge sa ospital."Vann, we need to go na, kasi hinihintay ka doon, we need to say goodbye to Arthur na, so he can rest in peace""I want to rest in peace too""Vann, please don't say that, wag kang ganyan, wag kang sumuko, nandito ako, nandyan pa si Enzo"She bit her lip as her eyes started to water."Hindi ko alam kung kaya ko pang ipagpatuloy ang buhay ko, hindi ko alam kung paano ako gigising sa umaga ng normal. I am supposed to be breastfeeding him, not burying him!"Mabilis ko syang niyakap at hinalikan sa ulo. I feel guilty dahil hindi sana nangyari lahat ito kung hindi ako kam

Art"Why ka ba laging masungit, hindi ka naman ganyan dati, lagi kang gentle sa akin" Mira sat down in front of my table. Nagpangalumbaba ito at nilalaro ang buhok."Wala ka bang mga pasyente?" tanong ko sa kanya habang patuloy ako sa pagbabasa ng magiging campaign plan ko this year.If I get elected, I will become the mayor of this city. Three years quickly passed by but it feels like it was only yesterday when everything happened.The truth about my marriage with Amari, the death of our son and her leaving with no trace."You know what, Tita Maureen asked me if we have any plans to get married na, she is excited to have a grandchild na totoo""She have a grandchild. Arthur is her grandchild" nag iwas ako ng tingin, just by mentioning my son's name brings pain in to my heart."But he died na, isn't it time to forget and move forward?""Nababaliw ka na bang tunay? You want me to forget that I had a son?""That's what I want, dahil unang-una hindi mo sya anak sa akin, anak mo sya doon

Amari"Kung hindi lang dahil sayo, I won't come to that party, hindi mo naman sinabi sa akin na nasa iisang party list kayo!" I told him pero parang hindi naman ito na bother at nagpatuloy lang ito ng pagsasalin ng kape sa baso nya."Sit down on the garden, I'll ask the maid to bring out your breakfast" seryoso nyang sabi sa akin."Bakit ang seryoso mo? Galit ka ba?" I asked Equinox.He looked at me before he sighed and drank his coffee."Hey, I'm asking you" I told him.He just came closer to me and looked at me intently before he went ahead to kiss the side of my head.I always pray that when he does that, that I would feel the same butterflies or yung kuryenteng naramdaman ko when I was kissed by Art.Nag angat ako ng tingin sa kanya and touched his face. I tried to smile a little. Ilang dipa lang ang layo ng mukha ko sa kanya pero wala akong nararamdaman kundi ang pagkapayapa ng puso ko."What's wrong? hmm?" I asked him."I shouldn't have asked you to come home, I would love to be

Art Theodore"Will you stop drinking?" mahinang bulong ko kay Mira."What babe?" tanong nito sa akin bago ngumiti. "Hindi naman po maglalasing, grabe ang strict naman"Gusto kong bawiin na lang ang sinabi ko dahil mali sya ng intindi. I don't want her to drink dahil baka gumawa na naman sya ng kahihiyan or worst baka ako pa ang utusang mag uwi sa kanya."Hija, you look lovely in your gown" napalingon kami sa dumating, it is her dad. Senator Ramon Soledad."Daddy! I look good in pink, right?""You always look good anak" nakangiti itong bumaling sa akin. "Bagay na bagay kayong dalawa"Spare me you old hag! I wouldn't be in here if you are not holding my mom and dad in their necks but kaunting panahon na lang, matatapos na rin ito."Where do we sit?" I asked them."Oh, we will be seating in front, we are VIPs in here, we will be seating along with the one who runs this show" mayabang na sabi ni Sen. Ramon.Nauna na akong maglakad papunta doon pero mabilis na kumapit sa braso ko si Mira p

Amari's POV."Tatiana, I told you that you are not allowed to curse! Natutunan mo ba yan kay Tito Rozen mo?"Umikot ang paningin ko dahil sa narinig kong sumbong sakin ni Hanna, apparently my good daughter just cursed in russian."I'm sorry mama" Tatiana answered on the other line.I sighed, saktong bumukas din naman ang elevator kaya umayos ako ng tayo at maayos na binuhat ang paper bag ng groceries na binili ko ngayong umaga.I am now residing to the condo I mentioned and it's been more than a week and I won't be able to live long kung puro delivery at fast food ang kakainin ko kaya naman namili na ako.Hawak ng dalawang kamay ko ang paper bag dahil sa takot na matapon ito at nasa pagitan ng balikat at braso ko ang cellphone ko kung saan kausap ko ang anak ko."Alright! Ano pa bang magagawa ko, just promise not to do it again! Hmm?""I love you mama!""I love you too! Behave!""Is that Equinox?"Muntik ko ng mabitawan ang dala-dala ko ng biglang sumulpot sa kung saan si Art."My goo
