"Walang nakaka-alam kina Lake and Take?" Huminto ako sa paglalakad upang tanungin siya tungkol dito. Nalaman kong hindi pala totoong kapatid ni Jake sina Lake and Take. This was his reason on why he didn't let the twin came with us here in Siquijor.

Nandito kami ngayon sa Isla De Paraiso upang sulitin ang natitirang araw namin dito sa Siquijor. We planned to stay here for our last three days.

Nakayuko si Jake habang hawak-hawak ang aking kamay. His long fingers are intertwined with mine. Napakasarap sa pakiramdam na maramdaman ang taong dahilan ng pag-ngiti mo. He looked at me and I saw how sadness came across his eyes.

Ngumiti siya sa akin pero hindi nito natakpan ang lungkot na aking nakikita sa kanyang mga mata.

"What's wrong?"

Hindi ko na nakayanan pa ang tanungin siya nito habang hinahaplos ang kanyang mukha.

He held my hand that's touching his face and brought it down to his lips. He closed his eyes and it touches his lips. Sa ilang araw na nakasama ko si Jake, pansin kong la

    I don't know how to answer him. Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya habang siya'y nakaluhod pa rin habang hawak-hawak ang singsing. The ring has a big pearl on its middle and it's surrounded with small pearls that looked like white sand. Is now the right time? Am I ready to start the new chapter of my life? I know that he already has confessed his love for me and how much he wants to be with me but...this is different, marriage is different. It is a lifetime choice. Hindi ko pa siya tunay na kilala and we started this relationship in a wrong way.I wandered my eyes around the place and saw that the instructors were not here anymore. Did he really plan this out?

Nobody knows when and where your time will be cut off. And the only thing that I need to do is to pursue what my heart really wants, to live the life I want, to love the person whom my heart beats for, and to be with the people who have a significant place in my life.It's been two days since I came back here in Cebu to celebrate the Christmas and New Year with my family.

    Healing SeaHindi ko alam kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako mapakali. I felt like I needed to come back at my room and go call Jake. I felt like I have to bring back what I said and say sorry to him, that I didn't mean everything that I said.However, there is a part of me that thinks what I did was just right and in place. What he did was considered as cheating. He cheated on me with the girl he said not to worry about, Allison. But I know...that despite the anger that I have with Jake right now, I still think that I need to hear his explanations, on why Allison can easily go at his house, and what's the explanation of her endearment at Jake.I am jealous, yes. And fuck, this is the first time I have felt this as deep as I have ever expected. He may not be my first love but in my state right now, I could really say that he is my greatest love. Kaya naman napakasakit sa akin nang marinig ang mga salitang iyon kay Allison.I can't accept it. Hindi ko matanggap na paanong n

Siya ang may dala nito at pakiramdam ko talaga ay may problemang malaki ito eh."Naglakad lang." Simple kong sagot sa kanya bago ko inisahang lagok ang alak na nilagay ko sa shot glass."Damn, girl. Dahan dahan naman." Nilingon ko siya habang nakakunot ang aking noo. Infairness huh, he really is handsome and hot but sorry I am taken already."Eh hindi ba ikaw naman ang nag-ayang uminom? Bakit parang ayaw mo akong uminom ngayon?" Naguguluhang tanong ko sa kanya."It's not what I meant. What I meant is you have to be careful in drinking alcohol." He reminded me through his gentle voice.Nakatingin pa rin ako sa kanya at tinitingnan ang kanyang mukha. Even though he is smiling, the sadness in his eyes is still visible and I think he cannot hide it with a smile. Siguro kung sa ibang tao ay maaari pang maloko ni

He's just holding the steel wheel of his car and with the way he's holding it seems like he's going to break it in any minute. He is also clenching his jaw while looking straightly in front. Not minding me at all.Why is he mad at me? Sa aming dalawa, ako ang mas may karapatang magalit. It's christmas and I have just found out that the only girl I am worrying about, can easily go at his house and much worse in his room. Does he ever know how much it hurt me? In that small span of time, I already questioned my worth, my self, and his love for me. Tama ba na ipagpatuloy namin ito? I know that I still have to hear his side, his explanation. But, somehow, I feel like I don't want to hear it right now.""Uuwi na ako." Anang ko nang lumipas na ang labin-limang minutong katahimikan sa loob ng kanyang sasakya.He tilted his head at me and from the side of my eye, I saw how he has ha

    Sunless DaysKinabukasan, I felt like there is someone who is shaking my arms, trying to wake me up. I ignored it and go back to my sleep when it continues, not minding whether I want it to be stopped or not. Small and unpleasant voice is meeting my ears. I don't know if there is really a voice talking to me or it is just because I'm so tired. Hindi ko pa rin iminumulat ang aking mga mata at pinipilit pa ring iniisip na ito ay sa panaginip lamang. Ngunit habang tumatagal ay lumilinaw na ang boses na tumatama sa aking pandinig. The voice is familiar but I can't figure it out just yet. "Ash...Ash...Ash!" It seems like everyone in the world has awaken by the voice who wake me up completely. I opened my weak eyes and it meets the person whom I don't expect to see right now, my mother.It shocked me that my mother came in my room and when I started realizing everything that has happened last night, dawn rather, I felt like my heart is going to break the cage that is locking my heart fr

    Last NightHearing all those words came out from his mouth gave me butterflies in my stomach. I felt like they are celebrating something inside of it and I may hate to say it but...I love how I feel. I love how those words put a smile on my face. Ano ka ba, Ash? Kailangan mong panindigan ang desisyon mo! Hindi pwedeng agad-agaran ka na namang makikipag-relasyon nang hindi ka pa maayos. Dahil paano kung nasasabi niya lang 'yan dahil ikaw ang nadito? Paano kung bumalik si Kate? And the fact that Allison still has access on his house, and can go there in anytime she wants, is bothering me.I just can't come back to him and act like he didn't hurt me, like we didn't hurt each other. I have always been so strong and I always face my battles without even shredding a small amount of tears. Pero iba ang sakit na aking naramdaman nang malaman ang mga iyon kay Jake. I don't know if it would be better if I didn't ask? But well, if I didn't ask him...I don't think he would ever tell me about it.

My mother shouted from behind.I am holding the gun while pointing it to my target—the wild pig. My hand is trembling as I try to keep my posture because I am scared that my mother would punish me if I fail this task.

Hindi niya man lang sinabi sa aking maaga pala ang oras na binigay niya sa kanila!Kaya naman nang pagbuksan ko sila ng pinto ay hiyang-hiya ako dahil pakiramdam ko ay kanina pa silang naghihintay sa labas. Buti na lamang at nakaligo na ako bago pa sila dumating. The twins and Snow are still sleeping while Jake is at the kitchen, he's cooking our breakfast. Pinadagdagan ko ang pagkain para naman may mai-offer kaming breakfast sa mga organizers. I also ordered him to prepare a snack for them in which he obliged. "Uhmm, I'm s-sorry for the inconvenience," nahihiya kong paghingi ng tawad sa kanila. Pinaupo ko muna sila sa mga couch na nasa sala namin habang ang iba ay walang maupuan dahil kulang na ang upuan!

I want it simply done but Jake doesn't want it. He wants it to be the best wedding of all time."You deserve everything good in this world, baby." I remember the time he said it to me. Kusa na lang lumitaw ang ngiti sa aking labi nang maalala iyon."Mommy?" Napahinto ako sa pagngiti dahil doon. "H-Huh?" I asked my daughter innocently.Kumunot ang noo niya sa akin at ngumuso kalaunan. "Why are you suddenly smiling, mommy? I'm asking po if we're now going back to the Philippines?" Ulit niya sa tanong niya kanina.I awkwardly gave her an awkward chuckle. "Ah, y-yes anak. Your dad and I want to get married in the Philippines," She smiled. "I'm so excited na po!"I laughed at her excitement. Nilapitan ko siya at saka hinalikan sa pisngi. "You love the Philip

It's more comfortable here. Ang mga bula ay pinaglalaruan ko, iniipon ko ang mga ito saka hinihipan nang isahan.Inilapit ko pa ang sarili ko sa kanya dahilan para maramdaman ko ang kanyang pagkalalaki na hanggang ngayon ay matigas pa rin at handa pang lumaban kahit na katatapos lang namin ng dalawang round.Namula ako sa naisip."Na...nag-sex daw kayo kahapon and...uhmm...you two fucked a long time ago...when she was still your fiancé."
