THE GREEN TEMPTATION SERIES #1 —Slander Vlustero "You won't escape from me, not again." napaigtad ako nang marinig ko ang pamilyar na boses. Hindi ako kumibo. Sinundan ko lang ng tingin ang kanyang ginagawa. Lumapit ito sa akin at inilapag ang isang paper bag. "What's your answer?" napatitig ako sakanya. Yung titig na kinasusuklaman ko sya. Gusto ko syang pagmumurahin at patayin. "Hindi ko kailangan mamili dahil makakalabas ako dito." matapang na sagot ko. "Really?" hindi makapaniwalang tanong nito sa akin. Taas nuo ko naman syang tiningnan. "Oo, at hinding hindi ako mahuhulog sayo, gago. Itaga mo yan sa bato, kumulubot man yang pagmumukha mo." narinig ko itong tumawa. "Did you see the outside of this room?" umiling ako. Alam ko imposibleng makalabas dito palang sa loob ng kwarto paano pa kaya sa labas. "Wala akong pakialam kung kamatayan ang nasa labas, ang mahalaga makatakas ako. Hindi ko masisikmura ang mga pinaggagawa mo." sa totoo lang kauti lang talaga ang tiyansa na makatakas ako rito. Pero susubukan ko. How can I escape from someone like him? Can I really escape from him even if I escaped from here?

I knock on the door, heart pounding like it always does when I’m about to see him. “Come in,” Justin’s voice calls—cool, smooth, and frustratingly calm. I take a deep breath and walk in, holding the folder tightly. “Here’s the report you requested, sir.” He doesn’t even glance at me. Just keeps typing, his expression unreadable. “You’re late,” he says without missing a beat. I clench my jaw. “There was a delay at the printer—” “No excuses, Joanna. Just do better next time.” Ouch. Professional and cold. As always. I nod, ignoring the sting in my chest. “Yes, sir.” I turn to leave, gripping the doorknob—just one more second and I’ll be out of this weird tension-filled office— “Wait.” I freeze. I turn around slowly. “Yes?” Justin stands now, walking toward me. In his hand, a familiar brown paper bag. He holds it out. “You didn’t have lunch.” I blink. “I’m fine.” “You skipped breakfast too. Eat.” I hesitate. “What is it?” “Chicken pesto. No onions.” My breath catches. He still remembers? “Why are you doing this?” I ask quietly. He shrugs, not meeting my eyes. “I just… remember things.” My fingers brush his as I take the bag. Warmth. Stupid warmth that shouldn’t still feel this familiar. Then, he looks at me—really looks at me. “You shouldn’t skip meals… wife.” Silence. My chest tightens. “Don’t call me that.” But my voice is too soft to sound convincing. I walk out before I say something I’ll regret. His words echo in my mind like a dangerous lullaby. Cold one second. Kilig the next. God… he’s still him. And that’s exactly the problem.
