Daw And Raw Difference

On the day I go to the car dealership to pick up my car, I'm told that the previous salesperson has resigned, so a different salesperson will attend to me. Yet the first thing the salesperson does is say that I paid too little for the car and demand that I pay more to make up the difference. "The other salesperson is truly an idiot. How could he sell a car for 300 thousand dollars in cash? It's no wonder he got chewed out and quit. If you want to take the car, you'll have to switch to a five-year loan with an interest rate of 12%." I'm rendered speechless as he blatantly tries to extort me. "I've already paid and signed the sales contract. You're breaching the contract!" The salesperson scoffs. "So what? The car is with us anyway. If you're not going to pay the difference, don't even think of taking the car with you!" I can't help but chuckle. I calmly pull my phone out of my suit pocket. "Walter, place Mr. Paul Roland's loan application on hold for now. He's earning big bucks for his business. It seems like he doesn't need it anymore."

Napag alaman ni Gerald na ang anak ng family friend nila, ay ipapakasal sa isang matandang triple ang edad dito, para lang mabawi ang dangal na sinasabi ng tatay nito, dahil daw isang disgrasyada ang kanyang anak. Dahil dito, napilitan siyang itakas si Janna. Subalit isa pala itong malaking pagkakamali, dahil ang hiniling sa kanya ng tatay ng babae, ay ang pakasalan niya ito upang maahon sa mas lalo png kahihiyan ang pamilya ni Janna. Dahil dito, nakiusap siya kay Lizzy, ang kanyang fiance, na kung maaari ay pakakasalan muna niya ang batambatang si Janna, at hihiwalayan na lang after 3 years, para sa gayon ay nasa tamang edad na talaga itong magdecide para sa sarili, at makatapos muna ng pag aaral. Ayaw sanang pumayag ni Lizzy, ngunit dahil sa assurance na ibinigay niya, pumayag din ito kalaunan. Ngunit ang tadhana ay sadyang mapaglaro.. Dahil ang isang pagpapanggap, ay nauwi sa isang makatotohanang gawi, dahil na rin sa taglay na katangian ni Janna, na hindi niya kayang tanggihan. Hindi niya alam, kung tama ba, na samantalahin niya, ang puso ni Janna, gayong ang pgkilala nito sa kanya, ay isang kuya lamang? paano siya aamin kay Lizzy? siya rin kaya ay gugustuhin ni Janna?

Sabi nila, ang buhay daw ay isang walang katapusang pakikibaka. Minsan, ang mga labang kailangan mong pagtagumpayan ay yaong mga hindi mo inaasahan. Handa ka ba sa anumang hamon ng buhay? Gaano kahanda ang puso mo sa mga bagay na ni sa hinagap ay hindi mo akalaing haharapin mo? Paano kung kinakailangan mong mahiwalay sa pinakamahalagang bahagi ng pagkatao mo? muli ka bang babangon para magpatuloy, o hahayaan ang sariling malugmok sa sitwasyong kinalagyan mo? Sa kabilang dako, gaano kalaking sakrepisyo ang handa mong ibigay para sa isang buhay na nakasalalay sayo? Handa mo bang talikdan ang lahat para sa isang responsibilidad na biglang naatang sa mga balikat mo? Ano ang mga hamon na kaya mong suungin, mga pagbabagong kaya mong harapin para sa isang bagay na hindi mo naman lubos na ma-a-angkin? Ang pag-ibig ba ay laging may depinisyon? Lagi ba itong may basihan at kaagapay na kondisyon? Pano kung ang pagmamahal ay ipinagkait ng panahon, mabibigyan pa ba ng isang pagkakataon? Ito ang mga tanong na minsan ko nang naitanong sa sarili ko, at hanggang ngayo'y gumugulo sa isipan ko. Simple lang naman sana ang mithihin ko, subalit bakit ipinagkait ito sa akin? Naalala ko pa kung paano nagsimula ang lahat...

For years I had kept it secret. Kept it hidden. Until I couldn’t anymore. I was shunned for it. Forced to work as a slave in the pack I lived. Kamari Enoch, former daughter of an Alpha and Luna. Former golden child. How far I had fallen all because some old wolves thought my kind was a blight on this earth. Then the day came when I found my mate. An Alpha. The best thing I had thought would happen to me. My ticket out of this horrible life. But I was sorely mistaken. Arik Knox wanted nothing to do with me. Rejected me in front of the entire pack.

For he was just as much of an outcast as I was. Just as broken. But the difference between us? He would burn the entire world down just to see me succeed. That’s what made Zayan Sterling so powerful. His hunger for revenge. And his need to satisfy me.
