I know that I said I already moved on but damn, I already did. The pain just flashed back again, returning to me like a tidal wave and somehow, drowning me again.

I cleared my throat, leaning on the wall as I gritted my teeth, “Speak your intentions before I’ll open this.”

“I just wanted to ask how are you doing?” He answered through the door and I scoffed at that.

Ask how I was doing. Is he nuts? He really must be out of his mind! How could he just barge in on my new home after all of what he did to me?

But instead, I tried to remain calm. “Good. I am good since you cheated on me.”

There was a pause until he continued, “I am not here to fight you.”

I scoffed, “I know. Now speak what you want and leave me alone.”

“How should I put this…your family couldn’t contact you. Go home now. They need you.”

I blinked, why is he ordering me just like that? He’s already out of my business, and we already have our own lives

    A woman asked from beside me and I didn’t know I was standing there dumbfoundedly and I instantly saw my suitcase almost sucked back in the machine when I grabbed it.“Thanks,” I said to her and she smiled.“You’re welcome, Ate Ellaina.” I paused, hearing the woman calling my name.And with Ate, which means older sister in Tagalog.I blinked, looking at the woman wearing a blue sundress again when I instantly recognized her. “Elyana? Is that you?” I asked, making sure it was her when she instantly hugged me. “I missed you Ate Ellaina!” She exclaimed. “Come, mother’s waiting for us.” She then grabbed my suitcase and I couldn’t help but stare at my sister’s face. The last time I saw her was when I was still a teen and she was still a child.Now that she’s grown into a teenager, I couldn’t help but see myself in her.She looks just like me, except her expression looked much softer and purer.

    When a fan even came to me, I just smiled and let her down and said encouraging words to her about how she wanted to be just like me.All of my business in the entertainment industry, I completely forgot. All I could think was wanting to see my father’s dead body. Wanting to confirm it.Wanting to deny it.That they must have just been mistaken.I do not believe it. I am still in the denial stage. Since my Filipino mother, an Overseas Filipino Worker, married my British father who was a businessman and CEO of Ramirez tech, I knew life would be a bit good for me, but I did not expect that I would be on the rough path, as the oldest child of them. As I waited for my baggage at the airport, the tv screens were turned on. I could see the show playing there was a bit familiar.It was the same one that Ajax asked for my number on live television and I refused him.I absentmindedly watched as I wa

    I didn’t know that I fell asleep when I heard a knocking on the door followed by cries from the hall. I groaned, feeling like I had the best sleep in my entire life. I felt like I just run a whole marathon from all of this mess and now that I was able to sleep in the room where I grew up, it felt like for once, my whole body relaxed, although this house has been nothing but horror for me. The knocking on the door still hasn’t stopped and stood up, I opened it, revealing an all too familiar woman responsible for my nightmares. Mother. The same brown hair and brown eyes and standing five feet 3. She’s a beauty, considered by many, but I do not look like her. Elyana was the one who took after her, from the face to her body, while I looked just like my father. which my mother hated cause I look ugly to her.“Mother.” I greeted them in acknowledgment, but I could see how she looked just like the last time I had seen her, except the wrinkles on her f

    My lips were shaking, and my knees rumbled on, feeling as if the sky dropped some water on my face until the whole place was covered in mud. It was raining now, and other people were urging me to take shade but I stayed on the ground, all wet and bawling my eyes out. He was proud of me all along? I find it very hard to believe but seeing the photobook is enough proof for me. I did not even get to hear it directly from his voice. How am I going to live now?Elyana pulled me in a hug, “It’s alright sis, it’s alright.” I shook my head and ended u bursting into tears as I hugged her, “I’m sorry, Elyana. I’m sorry. I was not able to be here until his dying breath. I was not even able to take care of him.”Elyana grabbed both of my cheeks and smiled, “No it is okay, you did your best to provide for us.” She then looked at mother, “Mother stopped gambling.

    ELLAINA’S POVI jolted awake as I caught my breath. I felt a sickening feeling. A werd feeling, and I could not remember what my dream was….Father is gone…What do I do now? I do not have the energy to go back, and I know that even if my sister and mother did not say this, they need me here. Father’s lawyer came here to settle father’s will. I got most of the shares as her eldest, but then I also got to see his debts, which I was still trying hard to pay after all of these years of working. The interest just keeps on going and I still lack the billions….Ramirez tech was under my name now…while Elyana got 20% shares of it. Just then, I looked around the whole house. It looked empty, dusty, and dirty. Seems that we have to clean this. I looked for Elyana and saw her going to our mother’s room with a bowl of porridge in her hands.After she returned, I asked, “What happened?”

    The next day, I could see Uncle Tomas was already up even though the sun still hasn’t risen yet, and standing in our yard outside the house as he speak with Ajax. “You see, we Filipinos have a traditional way of testing the suitors of our daughters. Since I consider Ellainaas as my daughter, I will try to act as her father now and I will test you.”Ajax nodded. “Now, since it’s still early I want you to cut off some wood for a fire. The nights here are getting colder.”Uncle Tomas then taught him first how to cut it before letting Ajax do it. Well, seeing them now, I could see that Ajax learns fast. He’s a fast learner actually and he seems to be eager to do his job without many complaints. “Ate, can we give them snacks?” I could hear Elyana, my sister, asking behind me and I shook my head. “No.”“Why not?” she asked, “Isn’t she your lover? I saw you two kissing last night.”I raised my eyebrows, “No, you did not.”She scoffed, “Tsk, you try to deny it….but I know him, He was the

    I dressed up and went outside to check up on what they were doing. I spotted Uncle Tomas grabbing a big water container as he talked with Ajax, “We ran out of our water reserves. Now I want you to fetch some water from the river up to here.” He said, “We call it igib.”“Oh, and where’s the river?” Ajax asked, looking around.“Go and look for one,” Uncle said, leaving him alone now. Ajax silently grabbed the water container and then headed off. I decided to get back to the kitchen and cook something for when Ajax returns. He would be hungry after all that work. Time passed by and I could see the wind was blowing harshly.Lunch and dinner came around yet ajax still hasn’t returned. “I heard there would be a storm coming,” Elyana mumbled to me and I stood up in alert. “What? Ajax still hasn’t returned.”Suddenly, the winds started to get louder and the trees swayed more. Leaves were bustling, and I gritted my teeth.Ajax must have gotten lost in the way!

    THEON’s POV AFTER A YEARI was laying in bed with my wife, and she stared at me.I fell deeper into her long red hair as I inhaled deeply, smelling her shampoo scent, the same scent I call home. I gazed at her eyes, the same eyes I fell in love with.This is my home now. And I would never replace her with anything else. “I love you,” I mumbled, caressing her pregnant stomach. She’s six months pregnant now with our child and this has been my morning every day. I then grabbed an envelope and made her read it, “Happy birthday, babe.” I then kissed her passionately. “Thank you for carrying our child.”She gasped, “Did you feel that?”I blinked, “Felt what?”“A kick! Our baby is kicking!” She gasped and I rained kisses on her again.“Okay stop, I’ll read this first.” Saphira chuckled, and read my gift. Good day, Ms. Saphira.

I came here for the food..”I still have no clue what place he is so I rusted Jeric’s directions. “You can take off your blindfold, ma'am.” He said and I did as he told me. I adjusted to the sudden light and I noticed that we seemed to be in an empty room.There were flowers everywhere and roses on the ground and with balloons.Jeric gave me a chair and I sat down, looking for any sign of Theon.I waited for a minute when suddenly, music started to play. “Here we are all alone in this room (Oh)And girl I know w

    “I will have you in this desk twice until you beg for mercy,” Theon whispered as he teased the hell out of me when we arrived at the cottage we were supposed to be staying in tonight. My prayers go to Snow's workers who are assigned dot kill this room because I don't know what the bed will look like tomorrow. It's like it's not him whenever he blurts out sexy and dirty words to me. but I am loving it. “Is that seat taken?” points to his lap, not backing down too. We had developed into pure bliss the whole night. and the cottage was filled with moans and groans of pleasure, desiring each other. The trip to Snow’s resort was already over. We only spent one night there before we had to head back for Arson. Arson wasn’t pleased when we returned. He missed us too much so we decided to take him to dinner outside.I am glad that Theon is also opening his doors and letting Arson outside and letting him experience what a normal child would. He also let us dance by the rai and even joined u

    “Hi, I believe you know me already,” Snow said, winking at me. She must be the life of the group with how quirky and bubbly she has been. She has been entertaining all of us since earlier. She has hazel eyes and chocolate brown hair and a petite frame. She’s the smallest of the women. “This is my husband. Eion Hudson. We are both half Filipino half American, in case you wonder.” The handsome man with jet-black hair and emerald eyes beside him nodded his head in silence and kissed her on the forehead. “He’s a man of few words but possessive. He owns this resort originally and named this after Snow that’s why Snow’s resort. And they own some shops and stores across the country.” Explained another handsome man. I could see he is a bit goody. He has been cracking some jokes for a while now and he had a nice smile. He nudged Eion, “Hey, thanks me man. I am always your spoeksperosn here.”Eion rolled his eyes at his friend.The goofy man faced me, “I am Phoenix, by the way. The only full

    Theon took me the next day to his office for his ‘Bring your family in the work day.’“Good morning!” I greeted his coworkers who were supportive of us. “You two suit together, sir!” One of them commented. “Ever since Saphira became Sir Theon’s girl, he’s always been in a good mood.” I chuckled, this was not the atmosphere they had last time. They were all tensed and nervous every time Theon was present. uI am glad things improved and their nervousness about him changed.“Sir Theon is not moody anymroe.”“And we can joke around him now with your presence.”It ess a bit embarrassing as his secretary avoided his eyes on us. Maybe because he still remembers when he walked in on us doing the deed at Theon’s office the last time… Thank goodness that our stranded issue at Samal was not reported by the media due to the fact that Theon was one of the famous heirs in the billionaire world.Theon’s schedule is very packed as he had conferences here and there. This is because this father r

    “Are you ready?”Theon softly grabbed my hand for support as soon as we arrived at his home, with his brothers behind us. I breathed in, preparing myself before hopping out of the car and going inside.My feet were dragging me and it felt so scary. And nerve-wracking to meet the parents.Theon decided to freshen up ourselves first and make ourselves presentable. We went through the back and I went to my room here. When we were prepared, we returned to meetup on the second floor. “Tsk. Why are they even here?” Matheo rolled his eyes as we walked. “They are getting old and senile.”“Let’s just show our faces. They might have been worried about our incident…”We went to the living room to find his father pacing around as he was talking to someone on his phone with some Italian words I don’t understand. Her mother was very calm as she sipped on her tea and she looked up once she heard our footsteps.“Theon. My son.” She stood up and kisses the three of them on the cheek, “Rameo, how a

    Rameo, who was an expert at this, sighed, “It’s the caterpillar rash..he must have laid some…we need to treat that with creams, ice packs, or vinegar.”“Vinegar?” I gasped, that would be too painful!Matheo disappear to find anything that could help us. Anything that might have been washed ashore. When minutes later, a loud scream from a girl, followed by a man’s appeared. I recognize the man as Matheos and it was inside the woods. “Omg!” The girl yelped. Wait, A girl?We insanity ran to the source of the yell to find Matheo on the ground, and in front of him were five women with a flashlight on.They were looking at us with the same shocked expression and Mathoe stood up. “Hey there, ladies.” He started to flirt with them and I hit him in the head.We have people here other than us! we are finally rescued!This would be very helpful for us!My mouth went wide in shock, “W-who-I mean how?”“Uhm….are you guys alright here?

    Judging by the shape of its head, I instantly knew it is a python. Too much watching from discovery channel made me this way.“That’s a python, chill!” I said, reassuring him “Python? Wow!” It didn't even reassure him. I think I just traumatized him. “It’s not poisonous.” I said, “and it seems to be still growing. Its mama might be around somewhere.” “Mama? You mean there is a bigger python here?” Mathee looked so shocked right now as if he could faint anytime. I rolled my eyes. “Is this your first time seeing a snake?”I caught the snake and threw it away. “Goodbye, snakey. Awee, you must be lost. Find you, mama.” “Wow! You have an Amazon woman right here.” Matheo commented.“Good job, babe.” Theon complimented. After that incident, we were awake the whole night because of Matheo. Our backs are also snipped by little crabs and we were wrapped with mosquitos.This was the most uncomfortable sleep I had ever had. Plus the leftover fish we had last night seems to be missing. I th

    I showed him my panties and he gasped. “But you’ll be all naked down there!”“So?” I chuckled, “At desperate times like this. We have to use desperate measures. And relax, they are far from here.”He then looked at me worriedly, “Be careful moving!” It didn’t take an hour for us as I instantly got four fish! I decide to get more so we could have two fish each and reserve some for tomorrow in case it might be high tide and we couldn’t fish. When we got ten fish, we decided to stop and head back. I put my panties back, just cause Theon was scared for me. The sky was getting dark now so we have to be quick. We had an overall view of the island and according to Rameo, we are blessed we have everything we need here…coconuts for water to avoid dehydration, sea for fish, and tall trees for shade from the sun. Since the sun was out earlier Matheo climbed the trees earlier to get some coconuts. I was surprised he managed it so we don’t need to worry about our water source for now. Food
