On Her Majesty's Secret Service

The day I found out I was a match for my dad—stage four leukemia—I bailed. Mom tore the world apart looking for me, but yeah, she had to watch him go. After that, she drowned herself in research, built a name, even adopted this perfect little angel. We crossed paths again at some fancy leukemia conference she was hosting. I was on the demo table. She took one look and scoffed. "Charlotte Stein, not the time for your crap. Get up and go." The host blinked, stunned. "Dr. Cooper... you know this cadaver?" She actually laughed. "What, she paid you for this stunt?" The host turned ghost-white. "M-Miss Stein passed three days ago..."

"do you know how to dance?" he asked. Napailing akong napapayuko na mahigpit nakahawak sa laylayan ng damit ko. Napahinga ito ng malalim. Napaiktad ako nang tumayo ito mula sa pagkakaupo sa sofa at lumapit na napapisil sa baba kong itiningala ako dito. Hindi ako makatitig sa kanyang mga matang matiim akong tinitigan. Para akong matutunaw. Hindi ko siya kayang titigan sa mata. Pakiramdam ko'y malulusaw ako. Nakakalunod makipagtitigan sa kulay asul niyang mga mata. Mga matang napakasungit kung tumingin. "so tell me, how can you pay me hmm?" sensual niyang tanong na napapakagat ng ibabang labi. Napalunok akong napasunod ng tingin sa kanyang mga labi. Unti-unti siyang napangisi na mas inilapit ang mukha! Napakapit ako sa kanyang polo nang akmang sasayad na ang kanyang mga labi sa akin! Sobrang bilis ng tibok ng puso ko. Hindi makatingin sa kanya. Mahina itong natawang ikinaangat ko ng tingin dito. "tell me young lady, how can you pay your father's dept hmm?" he huskily asked. Napatitig ako sa kanya. Mariin akong napapikit akong malalim na napahinga. "I can be your slave sir" mahina itong natawang napalapat ng labi na mapatitig ako ditong salubong ang mga kilay. "Slave? Are you sure? 1million pesos. Do you think you can pay me using your body hmm?" anito na tila nang-uuyam ang tono. Napasuri ito ng tingin mula ulo hanggang paa ko na ikinalunok ko. "Hmm...how about, be my wife. And I'll make sure, I'll let go your father" "W-wife" utal kong ulit. Napataas ang kilay nitong may naglalarong pilyong ngiti sa mga labi. Napalunok ako. Napaawang ang labi pero walang salita ang lumalabas! "Uhmm!" napakapit ako sa kanyang balikat na siniil ako nito bigla ng isang mapang-angking halik sa labi!! "It's settled. Get ready yourself young lady, tomorrow morning, you're gonna be....my wife"

"I didn’t know I was marrying two people. He wore the suit, but she pulled the strings. The day I walked down the aisle, eyes locked with the man I loved, I thought I had found peace. I thought I was finally leaving behind the noise of my childhood, the ache of loneliness, and the years I spent praying for a love that would choose me, only me. But no one told me that some men never truly leave their mothers. They marry, yes,but their hearts remain tangled in an invisible umbilical cord, one that stretches past vows, past bedrooms, past boundaries. I moved into our new home, only to find that the walls had ears, hers. We lived in separate flats, but it never truly felt like my space. My marriage was a room she walked into, uninvited but ever present. Her opinions dripped into our arguments, her eyes followed me from behind lace curtains, and her voice echoed in decisions that should have belonged to me and my husband. At first, I kept quiet. I told myself it was cultural. Respect. Family. Then I told myself it was temporary. Then I stopped telling myself anything at all, because nothing I said made a difference. This is not a story of hate. It’s a story of love, tested by bloodlines, boundaries, and a battle I never asked to fight. This is my truth. The marriage I thought was mine. The home that never really felt like home. And the rules I never agreed to, but had to live by, simply because… I was under her roof".

I wondered who had tagged me as curiosity got the better of me. I went to the tag, and my heart skipped a beat as I saw the video. My husband was checking into a hotel with a woman beside him; his hands were around her waist, and even a child could tell what was happening. I paused the video and zoomed in on the woman’s back, and it was her, his ex-girlfriend, Nelly, the woman I'd been asking him to stop seeing. I couldn't control my thoughts as they went back to the rumors that he was still seeing his ex. I trusted him like he asked me but seeing this video confused my senses. Was this perhaps true? Was he cheating on me?
