Chapter 1''Just stay here princess okay? Wait for me until I came back.'' ngumuso ako.''San ka punta?''He chuckled. ''I just need to talk to those businessmen.'' humalukipkip ako.''Come on princess, I'll be back.'' sumimangot ako na ikinatawa niya.''Okay, I'll be good girl here Kuya.'' He laughed at me. ''You're so cute princess.'' sabay gulo sa buhok ko.''Kuya!'' inis kong tawag ng guluhin niya ito.He just laughed at me and then kissed my cheeks. ''Kuya will be back princess.'' then he walked away from me.I pouted when I saw him seriously talking to them. I ate all the food he get for me earlier. We're here in one of the best luxury hotels in Cebu to attend something about business. Kuya, was the only needed to be here but I told him that I want to be with him. Mom and Dad disagree but Kuya insisted that it's okay. Wala na silang nagawa sa kakulitan ko. Kuya promises them that he'll take care of me. I remember my other kuya wanted to go with us but Kuya didn't allow them. I

Chapter 3Nagpasya akong maagang pumasok dahil may kailangan pa kaming hanapin na libro na kailangan namin sa Accounting mamaya. Si Vera lang ang kasama ko dahil mamaya pa raw tanghali ang klase niya. Hindi na namin siya pinilit pa dahil alam ko naman na magrereklamo lang sya ng paulit-ulit sa amin. ''Vera, dun ako sa left part na yon maghahanap, dyan ka sa right.'' utos ko para mapadali ang paghahanap namin. Habang naghahanap ay hindi ko maiwasan mapatingin sa bawat gilid dahil sa takot. Medyo madilim pa naman dahil umaga at dim light lang ata ang nakabukas. Wala pa rin tao, kaming dalawa lang ang nandito dahil nagbilin sa amin ang librarian.Nagulat ako ng may marinig na yapak sa may likod ko dahil sa takot ay binilisan ko pa ang lakad ko. I can see a shadow of man in front of me kaya mas lalo akong kinabahan. Multo ba yon?! Nang naramdaman kong malapit na ito ay bigla akong napatigil dahil sa kaba, ng hindi ko na natiis pa ang takot ay nagbalak na akong tumakbo. Nanlaki ang mat

Chapter 5Malapad ang ngiti ko na naglakad papunta sa café. Napagusapan kasi namin nila Christine at Vera na doon na lang kami magkita. Habang naghihintay sa dalawa ay umorder muna ako at itinuon ang mata sa phone ko.Napaangat ako ng tingin ng may maramdaman akong lumapit sa may mesa. Ngumiti ako sa pag aakala na sila Christine iyon pero naglaho ang mga ngiting iyon ng mapagtanto kung sino iyon.It was her. Rita Danielle.She smiled at me. A friendly one."Hi I'm Rita, you are Dahlia, right?" nagtataka man ay tumango ako."I just want to clear something up, if you don't mind," she still wearing her friendly smile kaya ngumiti na rin ako."Sure." tipid na sagot ko.“Ahm, about the photos. Theseus and I were just friends,” she smiled then she suddenly held my hand.“Huh? Why are you telling me that?” naguguluhan kong tanong.Hindi pa rin nawawala ang ngiti niya sa akin."Theseus and I talked yesterday, he was so annoyed because you avoided him raw. Then he sisi me! I was shocked naman,

Chapter 7I was walking around while smiling widely. The visitors already left, while my brothers had some errands to do. My parents and I were the only ones here. They are talking to the in-charge manager to settle the payment for the venue and the food. Christine and Vera also left with their family. At first, they wanted to stay with me but I said that they should go 'cause it was already late.This day was so memorable. I'm just a bit sad because he didn't come. I'm wondering what is he doing right now. Is he really busy? He didn't even text me to say Happy Birthday. I can't get mad at him. I'm not in a position to act like that.I sat down on the Bermuda grass. It's so dark here, the post from afar was the only one that gives light here.I was sitting here for almost an half hour. I'm just enjoying the view since it was so peaceful and very relaxing. When the wind blows up, I immediately close my eyes and feel the breeze of the wind. My hair blew away by the wind. Nang tumigil n

Chapter 9 For the past few months, I feel so contented pero hindi pa rin maalis sa akin na maguluhan. I am confuse on what I need to do. Kaya ko ba talaga na pigilan ang nararamdaman ko? Is this worth it to fight for? “Ano ba yan!” inis kong ani sa sarili at ginulo ang buhok. Instead of overthinking, bumaba ako sa kama at dumiretso sa cr ng kwarto ko. Kailangan kong magpalamig ng ulo ng malinawan naman ako kahit sandali. Kung mananatili ako dito sa kwarto ko ay hindi uusad ang iniisip ko kaya naman ay plano kong ayain ang mga kaibigan ko ngayon. Wala man silang alam sa nangyayari sa lovelife ko, alam kong malaki ang maitutulong nila sa akin pagdating sa pagdedesisyon. Maliwanag pa nang makarating ako sa lugar na pagkikitaan namin nila Christine. Nang makita sila ay agad akong lumapit sa kanila. “Girls,” tawag ko sa atensyon nila. “Omg girl! What happened? Are you heartbroken ba? Why is your face like that? Like parang nalugi?” Vera. I sighed. Tama ba na sa kanila ako humi
