Slytherin House Common Room

When my four sons were finally old enough for preschool, I arrived at the school office with my marriage certificate and their birth certificates, ready to sign them up. But the lady at the counter frowned and said, "These documents don't check out. According to the system, your kids don't even exist." I felt as if the floor had dropped out from under me. I remembered when Sheldon Clem and I got married—he was the one who handled all the paperwork, the birth registrations, everything. I never imagined that when I tracked him down with our four boys, he'd be holding his childhood sweetheart in his arms, with her little girl snuggled against him. And then we heard him sweet-talking her right in front of us. "Don't be mad, babe. I've got everything set up for us overseas. Gigi is going to the most expensive private school, and you'll be living in the nicest penthouse downtown. "Sure, she gave me four sons, but all my love and money are with you. I only kept her around because I felt sorry for her. "What else do you need? My will's already signed. Everything goes to you and Gigi." Riley Anderson pouted, smug and satisfied. "If you don't love her, then she's the other woman, not me. She's got no right to fight me for anything!" So he never went bankrupt. When we got back home, Sheldon acted as if nothing had happened. "Honey, I've found this amazing project overseas, so I won't have time to come home much. I'll need you to hold down the fort at home." I smiled and nodded. "Sure, go ahead." If that was how he wanted to play this, then fine. I'd make sure he really went broke, and then I'd find my boys a new father.

Sa masiglang lungsod ng Makati, kung saan tila hindi kailanman humihinto ang buhay, tatlong buhay ang nalalagay sa isang sapantaha ng pag-ibig, lihim, at pagtataksil. Si Talia, isang batang babae na may misteryosong aura, ay kasama ang kanyang kasintahan, si Robert. Ang kanilang pag-ibig ay tila tunay, isang ugnayang nabuo sa loob ng maraming taon ng pagsasama. Ngunit sila parehong may itinatagong lihim sina Talia at Robert na nagbabanta na sirain ang lahat ng kanilang itinaguyod. Ang bagay na iyon ay si Nelson, ang kanilang charismatic at kaakit-akit na kasama sa bahay sa prestihiyosong Ayala Condominium. Si Nelson ay hindi lamang isang kaibigan o tagapagtapat—siya ang lalaking nakakuha ng puso nina Talia at Robert sa mga paraang hindi nila maipaliwanag. Bawat nakaw na sulyap, bulung-bulong na usapan, at ipinagbabawal na haplos ay nagpapalalim ng tensyon sa kanilang pinagsasaluhang tahanan, na lumilikha ng isang emosyonal na bagyo na wala sa kanila ang handang harapin. Habang nagtatagpo ang kanilang mga buhay sa hindi inaasahang mga paraan, kailangan nilang maglakbay sa malabong tubig ng pag-ibig, pagnanasa, at katapatan. Ang misteryosong kalikasan ni Talia ay nagtatago ng kanyang sariling mga lihim, at ang tila kalmadong asal ni Robert ay nagsisimulang mabasag sa bigat ng kanyang guilt. Samantala, si Nelson, na nahuli sa gitna, ay nahihirapan sa kanyang sariling emosyon at sa kaguluhang hindi niya sinasadyang nalikha. Sa likod ng masiglang kalakaran ng mga kalye ng Makati at marangyang pamumuhay sa mga mataas na gusali, ito ay sumasalamin sa mga kumplikadong aspeto ng pag-ibig at ang kahinaan ng tiwala. Ito ay isang kwento tungkol sa mga pagpipiliang ginagawa natin, mga lihim na itinatago natin, at mga hindi sinasambit na pagnanasa na maaaring magbuklod—o sumira—sa ating mga relasyon. Kapag nagbanggaan ang mga puso at lumabas ang mga pagtataksil, makakaligtas ba ang pag-ibig sa mga epekto nito?

After years of running from her past, Lissa returns to the one place she never wanted to see again—her childhood home. The town hasn’t changed, but Lissa has. Now a mother, a wife, and a survivor, she’s trying to rebuild a life while standing on the crumbling foundation of her trauma. Just a few months. Just until she finds her footing. But the house doesn’t let go so easily. It smells of mildew and memory. Dust covers more than furniture—it coats every secret Lissa tried to bury. As she navigates motherhood, old friendships, and a strained relationship with her sister, Lissa discovers more than ghosts in the attic. A photograph violently scribbled out. A letter from someone she hoped was lost to time. And a journal that brings her back to the girl she used to be. Her husband, Colt, tries to be her anchor. Her son, Lucas, is her reason to fight. But a single name—just one letter, T—is all it takes to fracture her resolve. The past isn’t dead. It’s waiting in the basement. In a letter tucked behind old receipts. In the quiet corners of her memory where no one else can go. As the days pass, the house begins to feel like a trap.Lissa must decide if she’s strong enough to dig through the wreckage of her past… or if some secrets are better left buried. Told with raw emotion and atmospheric suspense, House of Quiet Screams is a story of trauma, resilience, and the silent strength it takes to confront what once felt un faceable. For Lissa, surviving was never the end of the story—facing what comes after might be the beginning.

Pagkalipas ng ilang linggo, sa kanyang pagbabalik sa trabaho, doon niya muling nakaharap ang lalaking pilit niyang kinalimutan. Siya pala ang bagong CEO ng kanilang kumpanya—si Kael Ramirez. “Hindi ko nakalimutan ang gabing 'yon," wika nito nang minsang ipatawag siya sa opisina. “ “Sir anuman ang nangyari noon, it was just a mistake.” “But for me, that was the best mistake I've ever had." Bigla siyang kinabahan. "Sir, let's pretend it did not happen,” mabilis niyang wika. "Well, it's not my case,” anito. “I claimed you once kaya akin ka lang at paulit-ulit kitang aangkinin hangga't gusto ko."
