Chapter: Epilogue“Damn.”Mahinang bulong ko, may babaeng biglang nagmamadaling bumangga sa akin. Some of my books fell down on the floor, and she didn't even bother to look at me. Samantalang ako, nakakatitig sa kanya.“I'm sorry! I didn't notice you. Sorry, Bye.” And she immediately left.I was tired with my part time job today, lahat ata ng upuan sa bus ay bakante, maliban sa isang babaeng nakatingin sa bintana. I know her, she's the one who bumped to me earlier. My instinct says, I should sit beside her, so I did.She's listening to her earphones, she looks so beautiful.“Hey, earlier—” I cut her off, I immediately borrowed her right earphone, I don't know what to say when she's near.“But you don't need me like I need youPray that I won't be alone” Pagkanta ko sa lyrics, I just want to impress her. I don't kn

Chapter: Chapter 30“Kinikilig ako for you guys.”Nandito kami ngayon sa boutique, pinuntahan ako ng girls at sakto naman dumating si Kael na may dalang flowers.“Sana all may jowa. Ako nalang talaga ang wala sa ating apat grabe ka, Cose. Iniwan mo ako.”Napatawa kami sa sinabi ni Cassy, pumunta sa gilid ko si Kael at inakbayan ako.“Shit, sana all may Daddy Kael.”Humagalpak kami ng tawa dahil sa sinabi ni Cassy with matching kagat labi pa 'yan ng sinabi niya.“Magbalikan na kasi kayo ni Zico.”Suhestyon naman ni Zades pero kumunot lang ang noo ni Cassy.“Ha? Sino yun?” Inirapan namin siya at hinayaan nalang sa pag-acting niya.“Let's go?” Pagyaya sa akin ni Kael.“Hoy saan kayo?” Sabi naman ni Naih.“Date.” Pagma

Chapter: Chapter 29“Please give me a chance to prove myself, I will court you again.”He looks so dashing under the moonlight. Gustong gusto 'kong hawakan ang mukha niya. But this is not the right time to show him how I want him back so much. We should take it slow.Tumango ako, at ngumiti siya sa akin. Bumalik na kami sa mga kaibigan namin, napunta sa amin ang atensyon nila.Bago umupo si Kael, tumingin muna siya kay Nick. Ngumisi siya dito kaya kunot noong tinignan siya ni Nick.“May the best man win.”Pagkatapos niya sabihin 'yun ay umupo na siya sa dating pwesto at kumindat sa akin. Agad na namula ang aking mga pisngi, Kael what the hell are you doing?“I'm also courting Sette, from now on.”Nagsimula na kami ulit bumyahe pabalik ng Manila. Nakasakay pa din ako sa kotse ni Nick. Nag-vibrate ang phone ko, senyales na may may

Chapter: Chapter 28“Sunday naman bukas, sarado ang boutique mo so punta tayong beach for the celebration of my birthday?”Tumango nalang ako sa sinabi ni Zades, habang naga-asikaso ng papers sa table ko. I have tons of papers today, dahil ilang weeks akong wala. Minor works lang naman ang binibigay 'kong tasks kay Shane kaya pagbalik ko naipon lahat ng mga importante. I have to sketch for the upcoming designs, andaming nagpapa-reserve ngayon.“Yes! I will invite the boys. Is it okay? Including Kael? Kasi friend ko din siya and sila Zico, Darrel, Lander invited din.”Napahinto ako sa ginagawa at tinignan siya.“You can bring Nick with you, isama kamo si Grey para may kasama din si Cassy.” Sabi naman ni Naih kaya hinampas siya ni Cassy.“Para sayo 'yun girl, baka maakit ka na naman ng ex mo.” Tinawanan namin ang sinabi ni Naih, at walang nagawa si Cassy kun

Chapter: Chapter 27“Are you really sure about this?”I'm busy packing some clothes and arranging my luggage. Cassy, doing her everyday routine, para mangulit.“May sarili 'kang company Cas, bakit dito ka palagi sakin nanggugulo?”“Wala kasi akong jowa.” Naka-nguso nitong sabi. Inirapan ko lang siya at nagpatuloy sa pag-iimpake ng damit ko.“Gaano katagal ka dun?”“Two weeks?”“Ang tagal nun!” Ngitian ko lang siya bilang tugo

Chapter: Chapter 26"Day dreaming?"Nagulat ako sa presensya ni Grey sa boutique. Naka-cap ito at shades. Mukhang nag-disguise para hindi pagka-guluhan ng fans niya."Anong ginagawa mo dito?""Grabe. Hindi mo man lang ba ako na-miss?""Seriously? Anong trip mo ngayon?"Ngumiti siya sa akin showing his perfect teeth, endorser ba 'to ng toothpaste?"Actually, may party tonight sa bahay. I want to invite you since friends na tayo diba?""Kailan pa?" Napatawa ako nang sinamaan niya ako ng tingin."Birthday ko nga ngayon hindi mo ako binati, wala ka 'ding gift. Tapos ako pa mismo pumunta dito para i-invite ka. I'm broke.""Happy Birthday Baby boy!" Tinawanan niya ako at he open his arms widely, inviting me to hug him. So I did."Thank you baby girl." Hinampas ko siya at tinawanan lang ako."Joke

Chapter: 24Chapter 24I am still confused about why Caliber has to bring me with him. After I gathered all the data he needed, he let me go home to pack my things. I still have no idea but I just follow him since we might meet Canon there. I badly wanna see him. I am concerned about his well-being. I started packing my clothes and I forgot to ask how many days are we going to stay there but I packed clothes for one week to be sure. After I packed my things, I stay in the living room to watch some news while waiting for Caliber to pick me up. I wonder what kind of relationship Canon and his brother have. I opened the television and what is more surprising is that the news is about Canon. They focus the camera on Canon while he was walking out of the restaurant, maybe he had a dinner meeting with his business partners. I was positive about that not until an elegant lady clung to his arms. I felt a pain in my chest when I saw them. All this time, I worry about him and yet he was with another wo

Chapter: 23Chapter 23The whole ride was just silent when Caliber drives me home. I had no choice since I think he let my driver go home first. I had a feeling that he wants to tell me something. "Mallory, how long do you know my brother?" He asked. I was caught off guard. I will just tell him what we talked about. "We know each other for a year now." I lied. We just know each other for two months now. "Oh, so my brother was just keeping your relationship a secret?" He said while laughing. "Nope, it is my choice. I want him to hide it for now." I said. He just went silent while driving. "You know, my brother has not moved on yet from his ex." He said and I think he was just testing me. "I don't believe that he loves me and he does not care about his past now," I said confidently. He nodded while grinning as if he was not convinced by what I just said. I did not mind him. I think he wants the inheritance of their parents as well, so he was trying to find out if we were just faking our marri

Chapter: 22Chapter 22We go outside the car after we hugged. I feel a little embarrassed that I did that. I hope he does not think about it in a bad way. I just want to comfort him. We entered the house and we were just silent the whole time. "Thank you." He said and I just smiled at him. "Good night, Canon," I said and he nodded. "Good night, Lory." He replied and we parted ways. We go to our rooms. I immediately rest that night. I can still feel his embrace. I wish he will get better soon. I woke up feeling a lot better this morning. I prepared for my work today and I guess Canon is already in the dining hall having coffee or tea. I went downstairs and I did not see Canon in his usual spot. I was confused for a second and the maid told me that he left so early in the morning. I just shrugged it off maybe he has a lot of work to do in the office today. I decided to leave after I had my breakfast. I arrived at the office and Jane greeted me. I smiled at her and greeted them back. "Is Mr

Chapter: 22Chapter 22We arrived at his parent's house and I feel so nervous like what I felt the first time I met Canon's Mom. This is all new to me, I have never been introduced to my partner's parents since I never had any relationship. The moment we enter his parent's house, the maids instruct us to proceed to the dining hall where his parents are waiting. The table is full of different dishes. Gosh, so many foods. I want to taste them all. I saw Canon's Mom and she smiled at us when we are walking towards her. I saw his father and I can feel that he is also strict like Canon. I guess, I have to try my luck tonight and do my job. His dad looked at us and I vow my head a little in respect to him. He just nodded in response. "Son, it's been a long time. I am glad you have a lovely wife now. She is so gorgeous." His father said and I blushed with his compliment. Gosh, I did not expect that. "Yes Dad, she's the most beautiful woman in my eyes," Canon said while looking at me. I can feel tha

Chapter: 21Chapter 21I went downstairs after I took a shower and made myself look decent when I am about to meet Canon's Mom. I saw them in the living room talking about something. I sit in front of them but Canon tapped the seat beside him, I saw how his Mom looked at us. I went beside him and I was just silent. "Good afternoon, Ma'am. I'm very sorry that you saw that situation earlier." I apologize to her. She just nodded in response. I am so intimidated by her. "Son, why you did not mention you getting married?" His Mom said. I was just listening to them. I can't interfere. "I'm a grown man, I can't decide for myself. We want to keep our relationship private for now. The media might target her when they discovered about my marriage." Canon said. I just nodded as a response that I agree with him. I caught his mom's attention and I instantly stop myself from nodding. Gosh, this is the worst. I feel like his Mom will never accept me as his son. Well, it's not my problem anymore. I have to

Chapter: 20Chapter 20We went to the grocery store to buy some groceries and ingredients for my baking. He came with me and I still remember how he compliments me today. I always blush whenever I think about it. He's just wearing basic clothes today and he looks so dashing. Some of the women here can't avoid his presence, they all look at him. He always catches everyone's attention. We pick up some groceries and he just follows me while pushing the cart. We look like a real couple. I sighed and just ignore my delusions. I was shocked when an old lady came near us. She was staring at us intently. "Are you a married couple? You look great together. I hope your love for each other will grow stronger." The lady told us. I can't seem to respond since we are not a real married couple. I heard Canon just vow his head in respect to the lady. I felt awkward when the lady left us. "See? We look good together." He boastfully said. I just rolled my eyes on him. He laughed when he saw my reaction. We
