The Lake House Novels & Stories

Jena rolled her eyes and showed her a leaflets, kanina pa pala siya nito tinatawag but her mind was too occupied to even heard her. "Ano naman ito?" Jena took the leaflets in her hand, then showed her what's inside. "Bahay, malayo dito. In short peaceful, yung tipong feeling mo main character ka na gigising sa napakagandang view na to." Asia chuckled and nodded, maganda naman talaga ang pinakikita ni Jena, it was a wooden house infront of a lake. "Maganda nga, parang gusto ko din dyan." She said and took a bite of her meal. "Kailan pala start ng shooting niyo?"

He just related how he tried to do fishing in the lake that was almost an hour away from his house. “I am planning to buy a land near the lake so that I could go there whenever I like.” “Sounds like a good idea. Lillie and I can join you there in weekends for some family time,” sabi niya, hinaluan ng excitement ang tinig. “Great! I’ll finalize the sale this afternoon. Can you ask Arch. Enriquez to call me for the construction of the lake house?” “I’ll sure do,” tipid niyang sagot. “Oh what would I do without you, sweetheart.”

Dahil pamilyar si Queta sa village na iyon, dinala niya si Gerald at pumunta sila sa matandang lake, ang Rodefort Lake. Gumaan ang pakiramdam ni Gerald habang nakaupo sa tabi ng lake. Biglang may ingay mula sa likuran. “Wow, Hayward! Hindi ko alam na ang bayan mo ay napakaganda! Mag-host tayo ng isang barbeque party dito ngayong gabi! " “Wow! Napakaganda ng lugar na ito! Sayang naman na magtatrabaho tayo sa Mayberry sa susunod o baka pakakasalan kita! Hahaha!"

TAHIMIK NA tinatanaw ni Bliss ang lake sa kanyang harapan. Nandito na siya ngayon sa loob ng kanyang silid sa rest house. She’s having different kinds of thoughts. And right now, everything is finally completing her puzzle. The puzzle that has been a big question to her is now finally complete.

Kaya possibleng natural ito at ang lake na ito rin ang dahilan kung kaya't tinaniman ng mga puno ang parteng ito ng lupain nang sa ganun ay ma-protektahan ang lake. Napabitaw na lamang ng hininga si Gale dahil sa mga naisip na mga bagay. Naisip nya na siguro, hindi nga ito ang lake na tinutukoy ng itim na libro. Nakalimutan nya rin kasing dalhin yung cellphone nya, sana natingnan nya sa internet kung may Red Wood's Lake nga ba. Pero baka nasira na rin yun. Magdadalawang buwan na kasing lowbatt yun dahil wala ngang kuryente sa loob ng Sect. Kaya a'yun, napabayaan n'ya na talaga ito.

"I prepared your breakfast. Where do you want to eat? There's a lake behind the house, and you can relax there while having your food." L-Lake? Mukhang marami pa ata akong ikabibigla sa bahay na ito ni Elijah, lalo pa’t napakalaki nito. Inilibot ko ang paningin sa buong living room, dito sa mismong pagkababa ng hagdan. And it was so grand. The mansion was impressive, and this house actually has a touch of gold, with a classic design and tall windows that let in plenty of light. Papasok na ang sinag ng araw, at mukhang pinag-isipan maigi ang pwesto ng mga bintana kung saan ito tatama.

Sabay tingin niya sa paligid. The vacation house unfolds in layers, its outdoor terraces cascading down to the waters of a mini Lake. Frameless sliding glass doors and curving panels of glass connect the interior to outdoor terraces, their shapes echoing the forms of the house and stepping down to the water’s edge. The light palette of natural stone finishes was calming and textural. "Aw! Jude this is amazing, my dream vacation house." Ang ganda naman talaga nito. "Glad you like it, wife." Sagot naman ni Jude sabay halik sa noo nito.

He didn't give me an answer. Nang maayos ko na ang sarili ko ay pumasok na kami sa loob ng kanyang bahay. When we opened the door, we've seen Take and Snow playing on the floor of the living room while Lake is on the couch, playing on his phone while his forehead is in knot. "Mommy!" Snow shouted when she sees me.

Nang makarating kami ni Luke sa kanyang mansion, hindi ko maiwasang makaramdam ng magkahalong paghanga at kaba. Napakalaki ng mansyon, isang malawak na lupain na may mga naka-manicure na damuhan, matatayog na tarangkahan, at isang aura ng karangyaan na halos nakalulungkot. Ang kadakilaan ay parehong maganda at nakakatakot, isang malaking kaibahan sa katamtamang one-bedroom flat kung saan ako nakatira kasama ang aking ina at si Jake.

"Sinong aakalain mong kasama ni Tiyong Bart na naghanda doon sa surprise proposal mo? Kami lang ang kapitbahay niya rito." "Uh..." "Drive. I owe you a drink." "Where to?" "Lake house. Deretso lang." THE WATER FRONT LAKE HOUSE, more like a very large cabin made of logs, sits at the south of Dune Lake, nakaharap sa Dune Oasis Luxury Villa na pinanggalingan niya. They parked by the back.
