Characteristics Of The Philippines

Walang hindi nakakakilala kay Lola Castillon sa bayan nila maliban sa katotohanang siya ang unica hija ni Don Mattias Castillon, ang nagmamay-ari ng Hacienda El Abra. Hindi iilang mga tao ang dumanas ng lupit ng mga kamay niya sa sandaling ginalit siya o inagrabiyado. Ngunit nang makilala niya si Nathaniel Montelibano, isang opisyal ng Philippine Army na nadestino sa bayan nila ay nagbago ang mga layunin niya sa buhay. Si Nathaniel ang tanging lalaking hindi niya napayuko; hindi natinag sa kanyang presensya. Wala itong pakialam kahit anak pa siya ng Presidente ng Pilipinas. Ngunit pursigido siyang bihagin ang puso nito sa anumang paraan. At sa bawat pagtatagpo nila ay itinataboy siya nito palayo ngunit hindi nito alam na lalo lamang siyang ginagahan na lumapit dito. Sisibol ba ang pag-ibig kung sa umpisa pa lang ay wala na itong kahihinatnan?

 Mataman ko lamang siyang pinagmamasdan mula rito, sa may ‘di kalayuan. Batid ko na kanina pa siya sa akin naghihintay.  Halata ang labis na pagkainip na mababanaag sa kaniyang hapong mukha, ngunit sadyang hindi ko magawang maihakbang ang aking mga paa palapit sa kaniya… hindi ko pa kaya.  Alam ko, na sa sandaling gawin ko ang bagay na iyon ay ito na rin ang magiging simula nang tuluyan kong paglimot sa kaniya— na matagal ko na sanang ginawa.      ●  SA edad labing-anim, labis na nasaktan ang murang puso ni Cinderella, nang malaman nito na ang lalaking lubos n’yang hinahangaan ay may napupusuan na palang iba.  Dahil sa nangyari, isinumpa niya sa sarili na hinding-hindi na siya muling iibig pa. Na si Miguel Balbuena lamang ang nag-iisa at natatanging lalaki na kakikiligan niya –wala ng iba.  At para maisakatuparan ng dalagita ang bagay na iyon, napagpasyahan nito na baguhin ang sarili niyang katauhan– ang maging isang tomboy.   Hanggang kailan mapaninindigan ni Syd ang pagtotomboy-tomboyan, kung makasalamuha niya na ang lalaking katulad ng isang Juan Benedicto Antonio III?   Juan Benedicto Antonio III, a 25-year-old future CEO of Antonio-Go Corporation, one of the largest distributor of Agro-Chemicals, fertilizers and seeds in the Philippines. A certified womanizer at never pang nagseryoso sa isang babae. Ayaw nitong pinagsasabay ang business and pleasure,kaya naman agad nitong sinisibak sa trabaho ang sinuman sa mga nagiging sekretarya, na nagpapakita ng mga kakaibang motibo sa kaniya.  Paano kung makasalamuha na ng binata ang kakaibang sekretarya sa katauhan ni Syd Santos, isang lesbiyana at nang nagsabog ang Diyos ng lakas ng sex appeal sa mundo ay sinalo na nito lahat.  May mamuo kayang love story sa pagitan ng dalawang nilalang na ito, na parehong nakararanas ng Pogi Problem Syndrome?

It’s been a while since the last time I stayed in this condo. “Mist,” the man called me and I just gave him a boring look. “I want—” “Us back again?” sarkastiko kong sabi, tumango siya kaya tumawa ako. “Sorry, but killing is now my passion, so kill that love of yours.” “Isn’t it love is your passion?” naiiyak na sabi niya. “People change, and I ended that passion.” Iniwan ko na siya sa veranda saka nagtungo sa kwarto nag-ayos ng damit isinuot ang agent suit.
