Chasing Ex-Wife
They say MARRIAGE is made out of love, faithfulness, and responsibilities. That is the three words that they say, it will be the foundation to have a good marriage. But mine's not the case. Faithfulness is not needed when it comes to the both of us. We don't have responsibilities for each other. And our marriage was not made in love, It's made of pure agreement and just business. Nothing more, nothing less.
Darya Valenciana is married to a man who's one of the richest man in the world named Cevier Clarckson Montebella. The man who she finds arrogant and intimidating at the same time. Arrange marriage and marriage in convenience is a thing from the both families of Valenciana and Montebella since spanish era. Being rich and being a good daughter, Darya obeyed her parents to marry Cevier. Five years of being married to him, not even one bit change. They're always fighting with each other everyday or even when they see each other, Cevier being rude to her, insulted her every second. Insulted her as a wife. Darya couldn't handle it anymore. That one decision that would change her entire life is to cut her string on him and divorce him. She only wanted peace and nothing more. And by divorcing him, the peace would be by her side in no time. Divorce and peace. That's what she want and she'll never stop until she gets it.

Chapter: Chapter 21“Are you okay?” I asked Darya. Hindi niya ako matingnan. Here we go again. After the things that we did together, it will only be like this…toxic. Nakakasawa rin. It is our honeymoon, we’ve made love… Natagis ako ng bagang ko. “I have to go, please…” At ganoon na lang ‘yon. Hinayaan ko siyang umalis. In the middle of the cold night. I felt lonely and cold. Hindi ko maintindihan. First, the wedding in Hawaii. Pero wala rin naman ako pakialam doon dahil gusto kong mapakasal sa kaniya. And no matter what I do, hindi pa rin iyon sapat sa kaniya. I felt that I wasn’t good enough in assuring her that it was only her. Ang hindi ko lang magawa ay ang saktan si Gladyss. She was a family friend. But I hate it that she was spreading such nonsense humor. Kung kanina’y malambing si Darya, ngayon, iba na ang ihip ng hangin. It frustrates me. Selosa siya. Heck, I was happy about it. It’s one of the things that I love about her. Pero hindi ko mapigilang masaktan. Dahil sa tuwing nagseselos siya,

Chapter: Chapter 20“Eat. Even if you're angry with me.” Cevier said. Nagluto siya ng kare-kare. Nanatili akong nakahiga sa kama maghapon. Ni hindi nga kami nagpapansinan e. “Wala akong gana.” He sighed. I felt his arms around my waist and he nuzzled into my neck. Para akong nabuhusan ng malamig na tubig. How can he still have this kind of effect on me? When I despise him for having an obsessive ex-fiancee. “Please?” I felt his nose on my neck, inhaling my scent. Mas lalo akong natunaw sa kaniyang bisig dahil sa ginawa niya. “I hate that you’re skipping meals because you’re mad. Please eat. Kanina ka pa walang kain.” We are still in his private villa. Mga ilang araw na kami rito dahil sa honeymoon. Hindi kami magkatabi matulog. Pumupunta lang siya dito kapag wala na siyang trabaho at para mag hatid ng pagkain. And in some instances, he would lay next to me and hug me. Thinking it would ease the anger that I felt for him. It did. Pero sa tuwing naaalala ko ‘yong babaeng ‘yon, hindi ko mapigilang

Chapter: Chapter 19“Cevier Montebella is spotted with the heiress, Gladyss Fererro kissing in the corridor of the high-end club in Taguig. Is this a sign of reconciliation between old lovers?”I saw the article pop-up. Pinindot ko iyon. I can almost hear my heartbeat. Pumikit ako ng mariin nang makita ang larawan na naroon sa article. Si Cevier na naka suot ng isang itim na suit, kissing Gladyss. He was wearing the tie I gave him while kissing his ex-fiancee. I couldn't believe it. But it wasn’t a surprise.Pumatak ang butil ng luha ko sa aking cellphone. He never failed to disappoint me. Hindi nalang sana ako naniwala na maaayos pa ito. “Naku, girl. Huwag kang umiyak masisira ang make up mo.” The make-up artist said.“Huy, Evan. Tulungan mo nga ako dito sa hair niya,”Tumayo si Evan galing sa sofa upang tulungan ang make-up artist. Tahimik akong nag-sccroll sa aking cellphone at nakitang may mga bagong articles na na release sa websites. “Excited nang matali si, Darya.” Biro ni Evan.That one articl

Chapter: Chapter 18Mataman kong tiningnan si Cevier. He looked so stern, but also frustrated. Ngumiti nalang ako at umiling, dismissing our conversation. I can’t…trust him right now. We both stayed quiet. Nakatingin nalang sa mga taong nagsasayaw sa harap namin. Hindi ko siya pinansin. Hanggang sa natapos na ang gabi. Hinatid niya nalang ako sa bahay namin. I just thanked him. Diretso ang lakad ko at hindi na siya sinulyapan muli.“Hi, ate.” Salubong ni Vien sa akin.How long has it been? She looks a bit mature now. Siguro’y hindi na kami nagkikita kaya ganoon nalang ako kagulat. She’s not in her favorite cartoon character pajamas anymore. She’s in her high school uniform and a light on her face. She’s wearing her glasses but I’ve noticed something different right now.“Hello, Vien.”“You’re out partying with your friends?” She asked.“Yes. Kasama ko sila Evan. How about you? How’s your day? I’ve noticed…you got your braces removed.”“I’m glad you noticed. Bagay ba sa akin?” She showed me her perfect

Chapter: Chapter 17"This is all your fault!" Napapikit ako nang naramdaman ang hapdi sa aking pisngi. I touched my cheek as tears fall down my cheeks. I looked at her like I was questioning my worth.Tinuro ako ni Mama. She is crying, her face is red, and she's also breathing heavily. "How can you be so selfish! Alam mong nababaon na tayo sa utang! Pero ano ang ginawa mo?! You broke the engagement!"I stared at my dearest mother, wide-eyed. Growing up, I looked up to her. Pero ngayon, I hate how she is. How she chose to raise me with tough love instead of gentle parenting.I hated how she made me feel so little. Na kahit sa isang bagay na dapat talaga ako ang magdedesiyon, ay hindi ko magawa!"Ma! Am I really that selfish to refuse the engagement? I have the right to! He cheated on me—""Pero malulugmok tayo sa kahirapan! Hindi ka ba nag-iisip?!"I stared at her helplessly."And instead of making a solution, you're going to sacrifice me?! Ma! I am your daughter! I am not your sacrificial lamb!"Isang

Chapter: Chapter 16Pinasundo ako ni Papa sa airport matapos ko siyang ni-text na pauwi na ako ng Pilipinas. He didn't ask why. Kinuha ni Manong Domeng ang aking maleta at nilagay sa likod ng sasakyan. Agad akong pumasok sa loob ng sasakyan.Pagka uwi ko sa bahay, wala si Mama at si Vien. Tanging si Papa lang ang sumalubong sa akin. Agad ko siyang niyakap. I hugged him for minutes until I started sobbing. He patted my back and ask."What happened?" Mas lalo pa akong umiyak. Hinaplos niya ang likod ko."Paano ko malalaman kung iiyak lang ang baby ko?" Umiling nalang ako at nagpatuloy sa pag hikbi. Nanatili siya sa ganoong ayos hanggang sa natapos ako. Somehow, hindi na gaano kabigat ang nararamdaman ko."Why are you back so soon, anak?" Umiling ako. He sighed and never asked again. Hinatid niya ako sa kwarto ko."Everything will be alright. If you don't wanna tell me, it's okay. If you want to cry, then cry. It's alright, anak." His words comforted me."T-thank you, Pa." my voice became raspy.He patted

Chapter: Chapter 18“Hidalgo.”He tightened his arms around me. I groaned. Mahigit isang oras na simula no’ng ginawa naming ‘yon. At paniguradong nagtataka na ang mga tao kung nasa’n na kami ni Hidalgo! Beer pa naman ang pinag-uusapan dito. Pumuti na ang mga mata ng bisita kakahintay sa amin.“Let’s stay here for a bit. I don’t want you to leave after having sex with me, Christine. It feels wrong that way.”Mas lalo akong sumimangot. Hindi naman sa gano’n. Ang akin lang naman, may naghihintay na bisita. Pero hindi ko kayang isaboses ‘to ngayon dahil hindi pa ako maka move on sa ginawa namin kanina. I leaned my face to his chest.“Sige na, Hidalgo. Kailangan na natin bumalik doon. Baka hinahanap na tayo nila Manang. At saka, hindi naman one night stand ‘to, ah.”“Shut that mouth, Christine. That is a forbidden word. Hindi ako papayag na maging ka one night stand mo lang. I am your boyfriend for pete’s sake!” His voice vibrated against me. Natawa ako dahil tila nairita siya sa sinabi ko.“Hindi nga one nig

Chapter: Chapter 17“Hidalgo, saan ‘to?”Narinig ko sa labas. Agad akong tumayo para silipin sa bintana. Hidalgo was carrying a few things. Ano ‘to?! May lechon na dala si Hidalgo! May mga pagkain rin! Lumabas ako sa bahay para daluhan ang mga tauhan ng mga Edralin.“Magandang umaga, Christine. Ihahatid ko lang ‘tong mga pagkain para sa birthday ni pareng Carl.”Tiningnan ako ni Hidalgo. I narrowed my eyes. Akala ko ba a-attend lang ng birthday? Bakit siya pa ang naghanda ng mga ito? Nakakahiya na talaga ‘to. May mga inumin pang dinagdag. Iniwan ko si Hidalgo sa labas at pumunta sa kusina kung saan nagluluto si Manang Berta.“O, ano’ng meron?”I pursed my lips. Busy sa paghahalo si Manang sa kaniyang niluluto kaya hindi siya makatingin sa akin at hindi niya mabasa ang ekspresyon ko. Napakamot ako sa leeg ko.“Ah, kasi si Hidalgo nagdala na ng mga pagkain at beer.”“Ano?! Naku ito talagang bata na ‘to! Hindi na sana siya nag-abala. Nasa’n ba siya ngayon?”“Nasa labas po.”“Haluin mo muna ito, Christine. S

Chapter: Chapter 16“The cut needs some stitching , Hidalgo. “ Sabi ni Wade habang minamaniubra ang sugat ko. Nagdala siya ng mga gamit at nagsimula na. It was twenty minutes or so no’ng dumating siya dito sa kwarto ni Hidalgo. The cut was deep na kinailangan nitong tahiin.“Should I rush her to the hospital?”“Hidalgo, huwag na. Kaya naman ni Sir Wade tahiin ‘yan, e.”Hidalgo’s jaw ticked. Wade pursed his lips as he prepared the materials. Gamit ang isang kamay ay hinagod ko ang kaniyang braso para pakalmahin siya. Hindi naman gaano kalala para ipa ospital ang sugat na ‘to. “I’ m sorry, Christine. Kung sana, bumalik ka agad ako, wala sanang nangyari na ganito.”“Hindi mo kasalanan ito, Hidalgo. HUwag mo nang sisihin ang sarili mo, okay?”Umiling siya at lumayo sa akin. Medyo nagulantang ako sa ginawa niya. Maybe he was truly sorry. Kahit na hindi naman niya kasalanan. Pagkatapos natahi ng aking sugat ay lumabas na rin ako sa kwarto niya. Sa pagkakataong ‘yon ay hindi na kami nag-usap. Bumaba ako patung

Chapter: Chapter 15“Christine, pinapatawag ka ni Hidalgo.”I stared at her. She smirked. Daphne smirked. Grabe naman ‘tong demonyitang ito. Ano kaya ang kahalayan na iniisip niya? Natawa ako sa paraan ng pag titig niya. She looked at me maliciously. Na para bang may gagawin akong kababalaghan kay Hidalgo. When in fact, it’s the opposite.“Hindi na daw pwedeng tumanggi. Iyon ang sabi ni Senyor.”Kaya nga ako palaging umiiwas sa kaniya e. Tsk. I know what he’s doing. He’s slowly seducing me. Hindi iyon mangyayari dahil pipigilan ko siya. Sasabihin ko nalang na…tsk. Huwag na lang kaya ako pumunta.“Sige, pupunta ako mamaya. Maglilinis muna ako sa guest room.”“Sige, sasabihin ko sa kaniya.”Umakyat ako ng hagdanan upang pumunta sa mga guestroom. Sampu ang mga bedrooms dito sa mansyon kaya kailangan ko talagang unahin muna ang paglilinis bago makipag kita kay hidalgo.Nang nakarating nako sa unang silid ay agad ko nang nilinisan ang kwarto. Kasama na ang pagpupunas at pagkukuha ng mga agiw sa kisame, sa sul

Chapter: Chapter 14It's impossible! Hindi ko kayang magnakaw. Kahit anong hirap sa buhay na ito, ayaw kong kumuha ng hindi sa akin!“Christine!” Parang kulog na tawag ni Manang. I shook my head. “Manang, h-hindi ko po alam kung bakit nandoon ‘yang singsing sa locker.”Kalmante kong sabi. Pero ang lakas ng pintig ng puso ko. I glanced at Hidalgo. May paninimbang sa paraan ng pagtitig niya. Don't tell me…naniniwala siya sa paratang ni Erza. He clenched his jaw.“Christine, huwag ka nang mag maang maangan. Nahuli ka na, oh!”“Oo nga, Christine! Aminin mo na kasi na ikaw ang kumuha niyan.”Si Senyora ay nanatiling tahimik. Her eyes were sharp as she looked at his son. “Hindi ako ang kumuha niyan,”“O, sige nga, paano ‘to napunta sa locker mo!”“Senyora, hindi po ako ang kumuha niyan.”I ignored Erza. I had said those words with conviction. Hindi ako magnanakaw. I will never do that. Ang tanong ko lang ngayon, bakit napunta ‘yan sa locker ko? And then, it hit me. Hindi ko nai-lock ‘yon. Umiling ako. I can

Chapter: Chapter 13Pinagmasdan ko si Hidalgo na may binabasa na dokumento sa harap ko. With courage, I asked him.“Sino si Ember?”He paused, taken aback. Slowly, He put the documents on top of the table. Leaning back his chair, eyes with contemplation.I never understood…kung may gusto pala siyang iba, bakit kailangan niya akong jowain? He said another's name, a woman's name, in front of me. Mistaking me for a woman's name I have never met yet…I feel insecure about her.“She’s…someone I know.”My heart clenched at his reply. “An ex-girlfriend perhaps?”Ngumuso siya na tila may nakakatawa. Hidalgo, may nakakatawa ba? Wala! My eyes narrowed. He’s enjoying this! I just know!“You're my girlfriend…you're the most beautiful woman I have ever met. Hinding-hindi kita ipagpapalit sa iba, Christine.”He stood up from his swivel chair. I straightened my back when he reached in front of me. Umupo siya sa tabi ko. His thigh against mine, spreading warmth to my body.“Hindi ako naniniwala.” I replied. “Hmm, marry
