The male asked mischievously witnessing her face losing its every color, not caring what he demanded from her. His stare was burning her entire being as she felt her self respect tearing apart. She was looking around the people present in the room with a hint of shame and obvious anxiousness."Are you being nervous now? You didn't hesitate to slap me in front of them then why are you being so shy now."

“MATE!” Marion screamed excitedly. “Oh my gosh, Jimmy is our mate!” I was excited; happy even that this was the grande present the moon goddess had in store for me.

Father, wake up!” But he didn’t budge and with that, I was left with no choice than to call the ambulance which brings me to how I got to this hospital. Today was my birthday, the day Jimmy rejected me, the day father passed out from shock, the day I would never forget in my life.

Sabi nga sa kanta, ❝Kay gandang pagmasdan ang iyong mga mata, kumikinang- kinang at di ko maintindihan.❞ Yun pa lang, ramdam ko kung gaano kita gustong makita'ng lagi. Dahil sa segundong madampian ang labi ko ng mga labi mo, sa mga oras na masilayan kong nakatingin ka rin sa'kin, yung saya na ipinaparamdam mo, abot langit. Yung tipong hindi ko maipaliwanag. ❝At sa paglisan ng araw, akala'y di ka mahal. At ang nadarama'y di magtatagal. Malay ko bang hindi mapapagal. Iibigin kita kahit gaano pa katagal.❞ Mahal, para sa'yo yan dahil sa magpakailan man, ikaw at ikaw lang ang alam ng puso ko na ibigin.
