Exactly Five years ago, I discovered my union with my ex-husband was all a cruel lie. Before we married, my best friend Mirabel had introduced him to me as her brother. He was a poor talented but unrecognized fashion designer then, so I picked him up and helped him build his career with my father’s wealth. We later got married, and he eventually coerced me to sign off my father’s asset to his name and reeled by my undying love for him, I did. I trusted and believed that nothing could ever break us apart that I never saw Austin’s betrayer coming! First, I found out my best friend wasn’t his sister.

No dia em que Lorena Rochas e Isaac Cunha completavam cinco anos de casados, o primeiro amor de Isaac voltou para o Brasil. Naquela mesma noite, Lorena descobriu que Isaac, trancado no banheiro, murmurava o nome do primeiro amor enquanto se masturbava com a própria mão. Foi assim que Lorena entendeu qual tinha sido, durante cinco anos, o verdadeiro motivo de Isaac nunca ter tocado nela. Isaac disse: — Lorena, a Aurora voltou sozinha, ela está sem ninguém aqui, eu só estou ajudando como amigo. Ela respondeu: — Eu entendi. Isaac explicou: — Lorena, eu prometi para a Aurora que eu ia com ela para a ilha comemorar o aniversário dela. Eu só estou cumprindo uma promessa antiga. Ela disse: — Tá bom. Isaac continuou: — Lorena, para esse jantar eu preciso de uma assistente à altura. A Aurora é mais adequada do que você. Ela apenas murmurou: — Uhum, vão vocês dois. Quando Lorena parou de se irritar, parou de chorar e parou de discutir, foi Isaac quem começou a estranhar e perguntou: — Lorena, por que você não fica com raiva? Lorena, claro, já não ficava mais com raiva, porque ela também estava de partida. Lorena, que já estava cansada havia muito tempo daquele casamento morto, começou, em silêncio, a estudar inglês, a prestar todo tipo de prova e a enviar candidaturas para programas de estudos no exterior. No dia em que o visto dela finalmente saiu, Lorena colocou o acordo de divórcio na frente dele. Isaac riu, sem acreditar: — Para de graça. Sem mim, como é que você vai sobreviver? Lorena virou as costas, comprou a passagem e voou para a Europa. A partir daquele dia, ela desapareceu sem deixar rastro. A próxima vez que Isaac viu notícias sobre ela, foi em um vídeo que tinha explodido nas redes: Lorena, vestida com um traje tradicional brasileiro, dançava uma coreografia típica do Brasil no céu de um país estrangeiro. O vídeo viralizou no mundo inteiro. Isaac cerrou os dentes e prometeu em silêncio. "Não importa onde você esteja, Lorena. Eu vou dar um jeito de trazer você de volta."

I am Maybelline Mia Park. Actually hindi ko alam kung bakit Maybelline ang unang pangalan ko, siguro big fan ang Mommy ko ng Maybelline make-up o baka naman uso talaga ang Maybelline products o di kaya wala lang talagang ibang maisip ang parents ko ng magandang pangalan. I really hate being called Maybelline dahil hindi naman ako mukhanag lipstick o face powder o eyeshadow o kung ano ano pa mang make-up na meron sila. Kung tinatanong ng iba ang pangalan ko, sinasabi ko lang "Mia Park." Short and decent. I am the epitome of clumsiness. Kahit ano ang gawin ko hindi ako ume-excel. Kahit saan ako magpunta palagi akong nadidisgrasya. Not actually disgrasya katulad ng nasagasaan o kaya nahulog sa building. Sa awa ng Panginoon hindi pa nangyari sa'kin ang ganun ka lalang sakuna. Maliit na disgrasya lang naman kagaya ng nadudulas, nahuhulog sa canal, mabuhusan ng tubig, natapunan ng pagkain. Can you still consider it small accidents? Kakambal ko na siguro ang .malas'. Sanay nadin naman ako sa mga hindi magandang nangyayari sa'kin sa pang araw-araw. Uggh!! ..but so much for that. Ever since nakita 'tong si Mr. Handsome and Mr. Hot sa mall nong gumala kami with my friends, hindi na ako napakali kaya hinanap ko talaga siya. Sinuyod ko ang buong town para lang malaman kung anong pangalan niya, san siya nakatira at sang school siya pumapasok. Well, di naman ako nabigo at nalaman ko din ang mga impormasyong gusto kong malaman. Then guess what? I transferred to livingstone Univeristy kung san siya nag-aaral ofcourse with my friends. Hindi naman din kasi sila magpapaiwan. I did everything para lang mapansin niya ako.

How can a love be so patient but suddenly lose its will when the right time finally comes? “G-gusto kita, Jeo!” “Higit pa nga yata don. H-hindi ba pwedeng kahit s-subukan mo? Kahit ngayon lang iparanas mo naman sakin na akin ka,” nagmamakaawa kong bulong. Walang kaalam alam ang lahat na kasal na ang poging CEO na si Jeo sa nag-iisang sekretarya nitong si Ysobelle. Isang taon— isang taon ang hinintay ni Ysobelle pero si Kaela pa rin ang minamahal nito. Dito na tuluyang napagod si Ysobelle, umalis siya ng walang paalam at ang tanging iniwan sa asawa ay kapirasong papel ng divorce paper na may pirm niya. Simula ng umalis sa poder ni Jeo ay sinimulan niya ang pagdiskubre sa magagandang tanawin sa Pilipinas. Ngunit napadpad siya sa Palawan, sa lugar na ito nagtagal si Ysobelle dahil sa ganda ng mga tanawin. Ngunit masyadong mapaglaro ang tadhana, ang pamilyang napamahal na sa kanya puso ay ang pamilya rin ng dati niyang asawa. Ito na ba marka ng tuluyan nilang paghihiwalay? O ito na ang magiging simula ng pag-usbong ng pagmamahalan nilang dalawa. Can love really bloom from a man’s broken heart and a woman’s pierced heart? Or will waves keep on pushing them apart?
