Chapter: Chapter 12 - NorteElieve AragonSurrounded by the noise of my friends' laughter and chatter, my spirit was awakened by the commotion, but I kept my eyes closed, lost in my own thoughts.Had I made the right decision by running away from the truth? I knew deep down that I was only doing it to avoid the pain and heartache that came with facing reality.I am running away coz I know truth hurts.And the last thing I want now is a troubled heart.Bakit ka tumatakbo?Bakit, hinahabol ka ba?Please remind me about my nega mind and its capability to annoy the hell out of me.Epal ng utak ko talaga.But I have to admit, tama naman siya, bakit ba ako tumatakbo wala naman nag-hahabol.Feelingera lang ako.I heaved a deep sigh.I was suddenly pulled out from my deep thought when I heard Kuya Arianne.“Isla del Rios is indeed a great place.” Sabi ni Kuya Arianne.Bigla akong napamulat.Syete nasa Norte ba kami?Luminga ako sa paligid.To my right, the vast expanse of blue ocean stretched out to the horizon, glimmer

Chapter: Chapter 11 - Unang BumitiwElieve Aragon I spend the rest of the day thinking of what’s happening. Anong problema ni tadhana at kami ang napagtripan nya. Masyado na ba siyang bored sa buhay nya kaya nag-hanap siya ng mga tao na mabubulabog at sa kamalasan kami ang napili niya. I was sidetracked in my reverie when I heard the door opened. Ay syete. Complete attendance ah. Hindi na ako nagulat ng nakita ko sa tabi ni Chae si Athena. Sandali ko siyang tinitigan at nagbaba na ako ng tingin. Her face was nothing short of angelic, with features that seemed to emit a celestial radiance. Her flawless, fair complexion was as smooth and flawless as porcelain, as if crafted by the hands of a skilled artisan. Her body was a perfect hourglass shape, accentuated by curves that were both alluring and elegant. Langya, ginagawa yata nitong miryenda ang gluta. Her complexion was so immaculate, it was almost as if she was untouched by the harsh rays of the sun. In fact, I couldn't shake the feeling that the sun itself w

Chapter: Chapter 10 - I. DON'T. KNOW. YOU!!!Elieve Aragon Matagal ng natapos ang tawag ni Chae pero naiwan pa rin akong nakatulala sa kawalan. I still and will always be still… what? "If my heart had its way," I whispered into the quiet of my room, "it would say, 'I STILL AND WILL ALWAYS BE STILL IN LOVE WITH YOU.'" I closed my eyes, letting the memories flood my mind, imagining his face, his touch. But then my mind interjected, insisting, "I STILL AND WILL ALWAYS BE STILL YOUR FRIEND." It seemed like the more reasonable choice, the one that made sense. I let out a heavy sigh, my breath hitching as tears threatened to spill from my eyes. I was torn, unable to decide between what my heart desired and what my mind deemed practical. The confusion was overwhelming, and I longed for clarity. I had made up my mind before, but it was never easy to stick to my decision. Chae Von Vargas had been a significant presence in my life, and letting go of those feelings wasn't easy. But I knew I had a goal - to move on, to find happiness be

Chapter: Chapter 9 - The Call EndedElieve Aragon The surroundings were quiet, as if just a while ago, my house was filled with various emotions and commotion, but now, all I could hear was the ticking of the clock hanging on the wall. They said their goodbyes earlier after our conversation with Alex. I could sense that my friends were worried about what happened, and on top of that, they learned about our whirlwind story, the four of us. Ang lakas talaga ng trip ni Tadhana. Ang alam ko sa mga nobela at movies ko lang nakikita ang mga ganitong stories pero maaari palang mangyari sa realidad. Masyado bang malaki ang aking kasalanan sa mundo upang maranasan ko ang ganito. Wala naman akong ginawang masama. Isa lang naman ang ginawa ko ah. Nag-mahal lang ako. Masama ba yun? Nabaling ang aking atensyon ng marinig kong tumunog ang aking cellphone kaya naman kinuha ko ito. Hey El, are you ok? Please tell me you’re ok. Nagalala ako. -Alex Nangangati ang aking kamay na replayan ang kanyang message pero hindi ko gin

Chapter: Chapter 8 - Babe...I LOVE YOUElieve Aragon The kitchen was filled with an air of anticipation as Alexandro, the broodingly handsome bachelor, meticulously prepared a sumptuous meal. The sunlight that streamed in through the window seemed to catch the glint in his eyes as he expertly cooked the perfect sunny side up eggs, the yolks a tantalizing shade of gold. The aroma of corned beef and potatoes wafted through the kitchen, as Alexandro skillfully sautéed them to perfection. He carefully arranged the dish on a plate, adding a side of crispy onion rings that added a burst of flavor to the meal. The bacon, cooked to a perfect balance of crunch and juiciness, was the pièce de résistance of the spread. And the fried rice, with its fragrant aroma and fluffy texture, completed the ensemble. As soon as all the food was served without any delay, we gathered around the dining table, our mouths watering with anticipation. Alexandro's culinary skills were unmatched, and we knew we were in for a treat. With eager anticipat

Chapter: Chapter 7 - The Hot ChefElieve Aragon Our gazes fixated on the vast expanse of space above us. The silence between us was palpable, heavy with unspoken words and unresolved emotions. After everything he had said earlier, my mind was racing with thoughts and questions, trying to make sense of it all. It was then that a flicker of understanding, a glimmer of clarity, washed over me like a cool breeze on a sweltering day. Chae had made his decision, and it was not in my favor. He had chosen his family over me, and while I couldn't say I was entirely surprised, it still stung. And yet, despite all of that, I couldn't help but feel a sense of loss. Chae and I had been through so much together, and it seemed that all of that had been swept away. But as I looked up, I realized that being a part of the Vargas family was an entirely different story. It was not just about blood and lineage, but about power and influence. The Vargas name carried weight and prestige, and those who bore it were treated with a deferenc
