“Aray masakit dahandahan naman sa pagpasok! Sh*t ang sakit pala! Ayaw ko na! Ayaw ko ng tumikim ng malaking hotdog," Sigaw ko rito habang siya ay walang tigil sa pagbayo. “F*ck ang sarap mo! Sh*t malapit na 'agad akong labasan! " “Taina 'wag mong iputok sa loob, ayaw kong maging single Mom." “Ayan na lalabas na! Malapit na!" Sigaw ni Marcos sabay hugot ng kaniyang ari nilalaro upang sa tiyan lumabas ang likido. Dahil sa pagod kaagad akong nakatulog. Ang sakit sh*t bakit ko ba isinuko ang aking bataan sa kaniya? Lord sinabi ko po na titikim ako ng biyaya mo pero bakit doon pa sa mayroon ng nagmamay-ari. Dios ko ang sakit sakit pala. Paika-ika akong lumakad hanggang makarating sa banyo. Paglabas ko sa kuwarto nakita ko si Marco sa kusina na naghahanda ng aming almusal. “I'm sorry!" Bungad niyang sabi sa akin pagka-upo ko sa upuan. “Don't worry alam ko naman ang limitasyon ko at kong saan ako lulugar. Nadala lang tayo sa tukso so please 'wag na nating pag-usapan. Let's eat," yaya ko rito kahit na gusto ko ng umiyak. “Ginusto ko iyon! Hindi ako humuhingi ng tawad dahil ayaw ko kun'di humihingi ako ng tawad dahil hindi mo deserve lalo na't ako ang nakauna sa'yo." Paliwanag niya sa akin habang lumalapit sa akin at hinawakan ang aking mukha. Hinawakan ko ang dalawa niyang kamay. “As I've said its okay. Don't mind it at 'wag na nating isipin 'yon. Let's pretend na walang nangyari lalo na 'pag dumating na si Yamir." “So I'll go ahead na may lakad pa ako. Bye Marcos!" Paglabas ko sa pintuan niya nalungkot ako at napaiyak. Mas masakit pa kumpara sa pagkawarak ng virginity ko. Alam kong mali pero mahal ko na siya.

Loriah Dee has never truly belonged. Orphaned young, with no family, she clings to the only thing that feels like home—music. Winning a scholarship to one of the country’s most prestigious universities is her one chance to chase her dream of becoming a singer. But campus life brings more than sheet music and rehearsals. It brings Draco Thorne. Draco is the heartthrob of the university—, devastatingly handsome. Only a select few know that he is a werewolf, destined for a Luna chosen by his powerful family. But from the moment he sees Loriah, he wants her. At first, she is just a distraction— a dazzling freshman with innocence in her eyes and the hottest body he has ever seen. Winning her over proves a challenge. Desperate to have her, Draco lies to gain her trust. Slowly, she lets him in. But Loriah’s world comes crashing down one night while working at an upscale restaurant. There, she sees Draco seated at a lavish family dinner, surrounded by wealth and privilege, a stunning fiancée at his side—his future wife. In an instant, every lie begins to unravel. She quietly begins to piece together the truth. Bit. She discovers the deception, the secrets, the double life he has woven around her. She has given everything to him. Her first time, her first kiss, her trust. She had bared her soul to him. But he had left her with nothing else to give, trampling on her love and leaving her to gather the pieces of her soul. By the time Draco realizes Loriah is not just another girl, but the only one he has ever truly loved, she is already gone. And he is left with nothing but regret, longing, and the hollow echo of the song she carried into his life.

Ano question and answer portion ba ito ha Pia?" naiinip na tanong ni Cassy. “Ang nakabangga ko sa Hongkong na lalake at ang tinutukoy ninyo na pamilya Lazardo ay related sa isa't-isa.

Ibig sabihin si tito Mauro ay isang Mafia Boss! Kaya pala no'ng kaarawan ni tita Vicky ay may nagtangka sa buhay nila, mabuti nalang at matalas ang pakiramdam ko kaya nakita ko 'agad ang tatlong lalake na balak sanang maglagay ng lason sa mga baso ng mga Lazardo," mahaba kong paliwanag sa kanila. “Pero ang pinaka punterya nila ay iyong lalake dahil s'ya ang tagapagmana sa lahat kaya mas dilikado ang buhay n'ya." saad ni Mau. “Kaya lumapit ang mag-asawa kay Boss upang humingi ng tulong para maproteksyonan ang mga anak nila." sabi naman ni Via. "At nabalitaan namin na may mga ibang grupo na ang 'andito sa probinsya kaya kami napasugod 'agad." dagdag pa ni Via. Paano pagnalaman ni Franz na ang babaeng nasa likod ng maskara at ang babaeng pinakamamahal n'ya ay iisa?
