SIS (Social Issue Series) #4: Bullying They say that beauty is a luxury. That good looks is the only privilege that matters. That the world is only in favor of those who were born pretty.Sa panahon nga raw ngayon, parang kasalanan na ang pagiging less attractive. You're unappealing? Emotionally weak? Naive? How pathetic. Now you gotta deal with the consequences, loser. Sounds like bullshit? Yup. The truth may be harsh but it is what it is. Once you failed to reach the very high standards set by the society, you're doomed. Yara Isabelle got the deadliest combination of being unattractive, soft-hearted and innocent. But she used to get by and survive the bullying just fine. Because she got her knight-in-shining armor. Her childhood sweetheart. Not until he stopped saving her. Not until he stopped caring. Not until he got fed up of everything.Sky Edison used to be full of compassion. But that was before something terrible happened within their family. His perception had changed. He now finds it ridiculous that people let themselves get treated badly.However, the downside is that for some significant circumstances, these two have to share a condo as they enter senior high school.

"You broke the law of this house when you fell in love with me, your own stepbrother. And now, you’ve broken the law of this country by killing someone. Tell me, Hariette. How will you defend yourself from the crime you’ve committed, when you couldn’t even defend the love you once felt for me?” Napagbintangan si Hariette ng mga kapitbahay na siya ang pumatay sa kanyang tiyuhin matapos makita ng mga ito na hawak niya ang patalim habang nakahandusay sa sahig ang duguan na katawan nito. Inaresto siya ng mga pulis at ikinulong nang walang matibay na ebidensya laban sa kanya. Umatras ang kanyang abogado sa paghawak ng kanyang kaso dahil ayaw niyang magsalita at ipagtanggol ang sarili. Ayaw niyang sabihin ang totoo na ang kanyang Tiya Gilda ang pumatay sa asawa nito. Wala na siyang makuhang libreng abogado kaya naman napilitan siyang humingi ng tulong sa pamilyang minsan na ring kumupkop sa kanya bago siya napunta sa poder ng kanyang tiyahin, at iyon ay ang mga Avery. Noong una, ayaw itong tanggapin ni Justin, dahil hindi ito humahawak ng kaso ng mga kriminal. Ang katwiran niya, bakit nya ipagtatanggol ang mga taong nagkasala? Ang nararapat sa mga ito ay maparusahan. Pero sa kalaunan ay tinanggap niya rin ito, ngunit bago pa man ang lahat ay nagkasundo sila na babayaran niya ito sa paraang gusto ng binatang abogado, at pumayag naman siya. Pero paano kung ang hilingin nitong bayad ay ang pakasalan siya ng sikreto? Ang akala niya ay may nararamdaman din ito sa kanya. Iyon pala, gusto lang nitong turuan ng leksyon ang babaeng nang-iwan dito. Ang babaeng pinagselosan niya kaya siya lumayas sa bahay ng pamilya Avery. Sa pagitan ng hustisya at pag-ibig, sino ang tunay na huhusgahan? Ang nagkasala, o ang nagmahal?

Entering a one-sided love isn't easy, especially if the relationship you have is only for a business. "Why do you have to be alive?" My lips loosened up as I sensed the bitterness in his voice. It is as if he hates my existence so much that he has to do something for me to be gone already. "Why do you even need to be existed in this fucking world if you're just going to ruin my life!" Ciara Hilvano is an innocent and martyr wife who always gets violated by her husband and makes her feel that she's an unwanted wife. This guy really doesn't have any idea that the girl he was hurting and almost killed everyday was secretly suffering from the cancer in heart. The time came when Ciara's life was in big trouble. She almost died because someone tried to threaten her life. What if Ciara can no longer cope with the challenges and trials of her life? What if she just let her own death fetch her? Will Tyron regret all the things he did to Ciara? What if Ciara dies? Will he cry?

"What's wrong with us making love Clark? I.. I like you, kaya anong mali sa gagawin natin?" Halos manginig ang kanyang boses. He smile weakly saka inayos muli ang kanyang roba. "Someday you'll going to thank me for not making love with you tonight." Iyon lang at tuluyan na itong tumalikod at tinungo ang pinto. "No Clark.." She whisper. Papalabas na ito. "Someday you'll going to regret not making love with me tonight." Puno ng pait na sambit niya. -----<<>>----- Hanggang saan ang kaya mong tiisin para sa pag-ibig? Ano ang kaya mong ibigay para sa pagmamahal? Paano kung ginawa mo na ang lahat ay hindi pa rin sapat? Arabella Santana, the sole heiress of Don Armando Santana, a billionaire magnate.

“If you don't have a choice, let me be your option. I can carry all those pain just to stay with you. But if you want me to let you go, just close your eyes and I will go away from you,” -Tyzon ~ Family ni Isabelle ang may-ari ng Winston Classical Academy kaya pinayagan siya ng mga magulang niyang doon mag-aral. Siya ang tipo ng babaeng kinatatakutan ng lahat dahil sa matunog nitong pangalan sa kaguluhan. Ngunit dumating ang isang araw, nagbago ang lahat noong pumasok ang magkapatid na Dominguez sa buhay niya at kapwa may malaking lihim sa tunay nilang pagkatao.

Ano nga ba ang papel ni Isabelle Jaydon sa likod ng nakaraang gusto balikan ng magkapatid?

"But I'll abide for my time right now. Pero darating din ang araw na mas bibigyan pa kita ng mas higit pa sa nakukuha mo mula sa trabaho mo ngayon... Mark my words, Ria. Magiging akin ka din ng buong-buo." ~Jacinto Mathias Gusto mo bang malaman ang baho ng iba? Gusto mo bang marinig ang istorya ng isang disenteng binata na nahulog sa maduming bayaran? Do you want to know that behind her innocent face conceal her unholy self? Or does it more interesting to hear about a man who has dignified appearance hides an intense desire of something that should be considered wicked? Do you think it's a waste if an influential, wealthy, and decent man chose to be with an immoral, good for nothing, and prostitute woman? Well, what do you think? Do you have time to know and hear about these spicy rumors? Then come and satisfy your curiosity. Learn to know that expectations, moral standards, and bad reputation doesn't matter in love... Nothing matters when it comes to love. ~SpadeLucker

“You said you wanted to taste freedom, right? Then, allow me to show you what freedom tastes like.” — Kirill Yevgenyevich Ivanov — Nang nakawin ni Anastasia ang pitaka ni Kirill Ivanov, akala niya'y pera lamang ang mawawala sa bilyonaryo. Pero maling-mali siya. Dahil ang tunay na ninakaw niya ay ang atensyon ng lalaki—isang pagkakamaling magiging sanhi ng panibagong yugto ng buhay niya.  Sa liblib na isla na pagmamay-ari ni Kirill, paniniwala niya ay kamatayan na ang magiging kabayaran ng kaniyang mga kasalanan. Ngunit laking gulat niya nang nagdesisyon itong gawin siyang sekretarya. Inaakala niyang lumambot na ang puso ng binata, pero kalaunan ay nalaman niyang patibong lang pala ang lahat, isang bitag. Kirill doesn’t want revenge—he wants ownership. Her body, bound by lies that taste like devotion. Her mind, poisoned by secrets only his hands can unravel. Her soul, seduced by promises of freedom… a deceptive illusion.  But when a forbidden spark ignites between predator and prey, their twisted passion threatens to shatter the line between salvation and damnation. Pero hanggang kailangan ba mahuhumaling si Tasia sa ipinagbabawal na lasa ng sarap na ipinalalasap ni Kirill?  How much can Kirill destroy just to claim what’s his? Their story is a lethal game of desire and deceit, where love wears the face of ruin— and surrender might be the deadliest sin of all. “Starting tomorrow, you’ll be my secretary. My shadow. You’ll fetch my coffee and file the receipts for the men I bury. And every night, you’ll sit across from me at dinner, wearing the dresses I choose, eating the food I allow… and wondering when I’ll finally snap.” — Kirill Yevgenyevich Ivanov
