Estranged Mga Nobela at Kwento

Dapat maalala niyang kakagaling lang niya sa heartbreak at hindi magandang ideya ang sumama sa estranghero. Pero imbes na gawin iyon— hinayaan niyang hawakan ni Zane ang kamay niya. At sumunod siya rito. Mas tahimik ang hallway palabas ng private lounge kumpara sa main floor ng bar.bMahina na lang ang tugtog. Tanging tunog ng heels niya at mabibigat na hakbang ni Zane ang maririnig. Nauuna itong maglakad habang hawak pa rin ang kamay niya.

Sa sobrang daldal niya kaka-kwento ay umabot na kami ng alas kwatro ng hapon. "Tapos sabi nung lalaki, muka daw akong taga Murs." Naka nguso niyang sabi. "Anung Murs?" "Yung aswang na taga ibang Mundo." "Mars yun. Syaka hindi ka naman mukhang taga ibang kalawakan," sagot ko. "Iba daw kasi yung mata ko sa kanila—itim tapos sakin blue! nat layk yu! Burawn."

“I need you to leave. Dapat paglabas ko ng banyo, wala ka na rito. Gusto kong mapag-isa, tutal naman kailangan ng bantay ng ate mo, doon ka na lang tumigil sa ospital. Or stay in your house, I don’t care. Just leave.” He stood up and stared at me. “I’m only leaving to give you space and because you wanted me to. This doesn’t mean our marriage is over. Clear your mind, Kel. I shouldn’t have said those things but I was so stressed and not thinking straight. I obviously don’t mean that. And it wasn’t my intention to lie about Vina. She may be an ex, but she’s a friend. I didn’t even know she was in the country until I received a call from her.” “Are you done?”

It's about who can stay forever in your life despite of everything. "I, Chaster Ren Luivega, finally found where I can stay forever." "I, Moon Dashelle Cassidy, welcoming Chaster for finding me." END. ---

"Ikaw na lang ang mayroon kami, ikaw na lang ang pag-asa namin. Pero heto ka ngayon, kailangan magpakasal nang maaga." "Mom, puwede naman po na hindi magpakasal. Puwede pa naman pong ituloy ang pangarap natin. Mommy, please..." "At gusto mong maging disgrasiyada? No! ginusto mo 'to, kaya panindigan mo." After that, they left me. I cried out loud. This is painful. Seeing your mom like this is really painful. Because of my wrong actions, they are treating me like a stranger.

“Because he wanted to forget me?” Binigyan ni Astrid ang sarili, isang buwan lang ang ilalagi niya roon. Kapag hindi niya nabago ang isipan ni Pancho at nagpakasal ito kay Nadine, kukunin niya ang mga bata at uuwi sa Amerika. She could go back quietly in Florida, the same breathing place where she had been before. Kung hindi niya ma-trap si Castela during that span of time, Artemis will just go home and Astrid will be lost forever.

“L-leave… I don’t want to hear any words from you r-right now.” Parang dinurog ang pagkatao ko, hindi lang puso ko dahil sa mga katagang sinabi niyang ‘yon. Dahan-dahan akong lumayo sa kaniya at wala sa sariling lumabas ng opisina niya. Nagmamadali akong sumakay ng elevator at dali-dali kong pinindot ang ground floor button. Nang bumukas na ang elevator ay nagmamadali akong lumabas doon at palabas na sana ako ng exit nang biglang may humarang sa akin.

Lauren stepped out into the cold, empty hallway, the door closing behind her with a soft, devastating click. The stress test had cracked their foundation; the hidden structure was in ruins, and as Lauren walked out into the pouring rain, she knew the long, agonizing winter of their separation had begun.

I can't just suddenly tell her that I got married to a stranger I met on the side of the hotel (where my wedding with Dave was supposed to be held). The truth is, I'm still confused about everything; my brain can't process it yet. I'm going crazy choosing to marry a stranger I met on the side of the road, but it seems like my life got better even though he's a stranger I only met for a short time. I shook my head and started applying foundation to my face and a little lipstick so I wouldn't look haggard.

said by the stranger from his place under a coconut tree like he knew every fiber of her. Kagabi ay hinabol pa siya nito hanggang sa siya’y makauwi sa beach house. The unknown guy was so persistent to have a word with her. I was brokenhearted when you left me. Years gone by but you're still in my mind. I've never been the same without you. Everything about me never been the same after you broke up with me.
