Lauren's heart hitched instantly as Kiel began to walk towards her. His eyes were narrowed and she could already feel the amount of anger pulsating in his veins.Bakit ba kasi ito naroon? Akala ba niya may importante itong meeting? Mukhang ang plano niyang linisin ang pangalan nito ay muling mauuwi sa isang mas malaking eskandalo! No, she cannot let that happen. She willed her brain to work but at that moment she just can't think of anything but... She shook her head. What her mind was suggesting is utterly preposterous but it would definitely distract him and would give her a few seconds to talk to him.She didn't have much time to contemplate. When Kiel started climbing the makeshift stage, sinalubong niya agad ito. Without another word, she threw her arms around his neck, tiptoed and kissed him. He stilled for a while before his strong hands snaked around her waist, pulling her flushed to him. Her heart instantly went into overdrive, remembering the last time they shared a sw

“C’mon Ana, bakit hindi ko puwedeng makita ang asawa ko?” inis na tanong ni Kiel sa hipag niya. They were at the lanai, nagkakape. Doon siya nito dinala nang dumating siya sa bahay nito at ni Joshua kanina. Ang sabi kasi nito, kailangan muna nilang mag-usap bago niya puntahan si Lauren. Being respectful as he was, pumayag siya. When Ana offered him coffee, he indulged her kahit na gusto na niyang puntahan si Lauren at nang makauwi na sila sa bahay niya at makapag-usap silanang masinsinan. But when he insisted on going upstairs to see his own wife, ayaw nang pumayag ni Ana. Kaswal muna na humigop ng kape si Ana sa tasa nito bago, “Pinapatulog pa niya si Tala e,” anito. Nalukot na ang mukha niya, tumaas na ang tingin sa kapatid niyang naglalakad palapit sa kanila, may hawak din na mug ng kape. “Are you two broke? Bakit si Lauren ang pinagya-yaya ninyo sa pamangkin ko?” Natawa si Joshua. “She’s just practicing on what industry she might consider to work for next should her career in a

Marahang itinulak pabukas ni Lauren ang pinto ng bahay ni Kiel. It’s just a little over midnight and she’s just coming home from the two-day out-of-town commercial shoot she had. Maingat ang kilos niya dahil ayaw niyang magising si Kiel. Ayaw niyang makaistorbo. Nang tuluyan siyang makapasok sa bahay, she quietly picked up her pace towards the stairs. Subalit agad din siyang natigilan nang may magsalita mula sa direksiyon ng kusina. “Welcome home, wife.” Agad siyang bumaling sa direksiyon niyon and her breath instantly hitched when there she saw Kiel, seating on one of the stools surrounding the kitchen island. Sa kamay nito ay isang bote ng alak. He had a soft smile on his face and his eye were twinkling under the soft light of the kitchen island. He looked… happy to see her? Does he really? 'Paanong happy to see you, and hindi ka nga niyan tinatawagan or tini-text man lang,' anang isang bahagi ng isip niya.She blinked, dismissing her previous thoughts instantly. He’s happy bec

"Girl, masakit na paa ko. We don't have enough beauty rest din kasi maaga mo 'kong ginising. Konting ganda na nga lang itong nasalo ko, malapit na ring maglaho dahil sa stress. Saan ba kasi talaga tayo pupunta?" reklamo ni Micha kay Lauren habang naglalakad sila sa mall. Doon niya niyaya ang kaibigan dahil wala naman talaga siyang pupuntahan ngayon. They already had lunch. Nagpa-book din siya ng spa for her pamper day. Kaya lang mamayang hapon pa daw ang schedule niya-- nila ni Micha. She really didn't think things through that day. If she'd be honest, she's been winging it from the moment she left Kiel's house. Basta ang alam niya, she cannot stay inside Kiel's house the whole day. Mabuti na lang at nakumbinsi niya si Micha na samahan siya sa kung saan mang lupalop siya ng siyudad mapunta."We still have a few hours to go before our pamper day schedule. Please bear with me, Miks," pakiusap niya, sipping on the tall cup of coffee she ordered earlier. "My feet are already killing me,

Namimintig ang ulo ni Lauren nang magising siya kinabukasan. Not only that, she can feel a slight ache on her bones na para bang nabugbog ang katawan niya nang nagdaang mga araw. With a groan, she forced her eyes to open.Agad na tumambad sa kanya ang pamilyar na kisame ng guest room na tinutuluyan niya sa bahay ni Kiel. She sighed and bit her lower lip. She doesn't even know how she got there. The last thing she remembered was she's with Micha. There's a great chance that Micha was the one who sent her home. She trusts her assistant, hindi siya nito papabayaan.Maya-maya pa, nakarinig siya ng katok sa pinto."Ma'am, pinapa-check lang po ni Sir Kiel kung gising na po kayo," anang isa sa mga katulong."I-I'm awake," sagot niya, sa paos na tinig."Sige po, Ma'am. Pinapasabi po ni Sir Kiel na hinihintay po niya kayo sa lanai," anang katulong.Mabilis siyang napatingin sa digital clock sa bedside table. It's past eight in the morning on a Tuesday. Bakit naroon pa si Kiel? Dapat nasa opisi
