The Art Of Public Speaking

Kinatatakutan ang mafia boss na si Trood Moherra sa criminal underworld. Maliban kasi sa eksperto siya sa illegal trafficking ay wala siyang awa kung kumitil ng buhay sa mga traydor nilang kasamahan. Wala siyang sinasanto basta para sa grupo nilang IRON BLADES. Subalit isang araw, sa gitna ng kaguluhan sa mundo ng mga kriminal ay pinakiusapan siya ng pinakamataas nilang leader na si Mattias na pangalagaan niya ang pangalawa nitong asawa na si Monica na noon ay nagdadalang tao. Ginawa naman niya ang lahat upang iligtas ang babae sa kanilang mga kalaban. Iniuwi niya ito sa probinsya upang maprotektahan pati ang sanggol sa sinapupunan nito. Ang hindi nga lang inasahan ni Trood habang sila ay tumatakas ay siya namang panganganak nito. Napilitan tuloy siya na mag-highjack ng isang pampublikong bus upang makahanap ng magpapaanak dito. Nakilala niya sa bus ang pasaherong si Avely Venoza, ang isang nurse ng Moherra Birthcare Center sa probinsya ng Galero. Nagtulungan sila upang mailigtas si Monica at ang sanggol sa sinapupunan nito. Sa kasamaang palad, naging huli ang lahat, pinanawan pa rin ng buhay si Monica pati na rin ang sanggol. Nang malaman ni Trood ang nangyari ay binayaran niya si Avely upang ito na ang bahala sa mag-ina dahil kinailangan na niyang bumalik sa magulong mundo ng mga mafia. Doon nagalit sa kanya ang dalaga. Inakala kasi ni Avely na asawa at anak ni Trood ang mag-inang namatay. Hiniling ni Avely na sana hindi na magkukurus pa ang landas nila ng walang kuwentang ama, kahit pa sa bandang huli ay nalaman niyang nabuhay pala ang sanggol. Wala man siyang karapatan ay isinumpa ni Avely na hindi siya makakapayag na magkita pa ang mag-ama.

I am staring at the city lights while having a smoke. It’s been a while since the last time I stayed in this condo. “Mist,” the man called me and I just gave him a boring look. “I want—” “Us back again?” sarkastiko kong sabi, tumango siya kaya tumawa ako. “Sorry, but killing is now my passion, so kill that love of yours.” “Isn’t it love is your passion?” naiiyak na sabi niya. “People change, and I ended that passion.” Iniwan ko na siya sa veranda saka nagtungo sa kwarto nag-ayos ng damit isinuot ang agent suit. Again, I am ready to kill. “Love? What the heck is that, I won’t beg, even if he does, hindi na ako papasok sa mundong yon, that place is chaotic, it is poisonous, venomous that can make you feel ill and numb.” Zyra Mist Alejandro, too tired of loving. If come inside of my heart you can only see words saying ‘end of passion’ because love is a killing potion.

 Mataman ko lamang siyang pinagmamasdan mula rito, sa may ‘di kalayuan. Batid ko na kanina pa siya sa akin naghihintay.  Halata ang labis na pagkainip na mababanaag sa kaniyang hapong mukha, ngunit sadyang hindi ko magawang maihakbang ang aking mga paa palapit sa kaniya… hindi ko pa kaya.  Alam ko, na sa sandaling gawin ko ang bagay na iyon ay ito na rin ang magiging simula nang tuluyan kong paglimot sa kaniya— na matagal ko na sanang ginawa.      ●  SA edad labing-anim, labis na nasaktan ang murang puso ni Cinderella, nang malaman nito na ang lalaking lubos n’yang hinahangaan ay may napupusuan na palang iba.  Dahil sa nangyari, isinumpa niya sa sarili na hinding-hindi na siya muling iibig pa. Na si Miguel Balbuena lamang ang nag-iisa at natatanging lalaki na kakikiligan niya –wala ng iba.  At para maisakatuparan ng dalagita ang bagay na iyon, napagpasyahan nito na baguhin ang sarili niyang katauhan– ang maging isang tomboy.   Hanggang kailan mapaninindigan ni Syd ang pagtotomboy-tomboyan, kung makasalamuha niya na ang lalaking katulad ng isang Juan Benedicto Antonio III?   Juan Benedicto Antonio III, a 25-year-old future CEO of Antonio-Go Corporation, one of the largest distributor of Agro-Chemicals, fertilizers and seeds in the Philippines. A certified womanizer at never pang nagseryoso sa isang babae. Ayaw nitong pinagsasabay ang business and pleasure,kaya naman agad nitong sinisibak sa trabaho ang sinuman sa mga nagiging sekretarya, na nagpapakita ng mga kakaibang motibo sa kaniya.  Paano kung makasalamuha na ng binata ang kakaibang sekretarya sa katauhan ni Syd Santos, isang lesbiyana at nang nagsabog ang Diyos ng lakas ng sex appeal sa mundo ay sinalo na nito lahat.  May mamuo kayang love story sa pagitan ng dalawang nilalang na ito, na parehong nakararanas ng Pogi Problem Syndrome?
