2024-10-29 19:42:56Gusto niyang intindihan ko pero walang sapat na rason upang tanggapin ko ang desisyon niyang iyon. Tangina... hanggang sa huli, ang lalaki pa rin pala na iyon ang gugustuhin niyang makasama.
"Maraming salamat sa pagpapaunlak mo na makausap ka, Mr. Verulendez." seryosong bungad sa akin ni Sir Wesley. I had an important meeting to attend to but I canceled it just to face him. He's our family lawyer and I think he deserves some of my time. And... he's Marwa's relative.
Tipid akong ngumiti at tumango. Pinanood ko ang kaniyang pag-higop sa kape na inihanda ng aking sekretarya.
"Alam ko ang tungkol sa inyo ng anak ko, Mr. Verulendez." aniya na nagpakaba sa akin ng husto.
What does he mean?
Nanatili lamang akong nakatitig sa kaniya, nag-aabang ng susunod niyang sasabihin.
"She's pregnant. I know you know that." nag-taas siya ng kilay.

"Ano? Pagod ka na sa ugali ko? Sa akin? Ganoon ba? Sumagot ka!"I ignored her. I discretely heaved a deep sigh while looking at my laptop. Dahil kapag nahuli niya akong bumubuntong-hininga rito, tiyak ay mas magwawala siya at mag-iisip na naman ng kung ano. I was so tired from work that I can't even move my fingers but this has to be done as soon as possible."Akala mo ba hindi ko alam na nakikipaglandian ka sa empleyado mo? Hindi ka na nahiya! Nakikita ng ibang tao pero wala kang pakialam?!" Her voice thundered in our room. I don't even know how would I react this time. Araw-araw, sa tuwing uuwi ako, ganito ang paratang niya sa akin.I closed my laptop and looked at her through my reading glasses. Her hands were on her hips, eyes throwing daggers at me. Her round belly was potruding in her baby pink nightdress. Ang kaniyang kulay tsokolateng mahabang buhok ay medyo magulo.I pursed my li

I flipped the pancake on the pan and cursed silently when I saw that it is burnt. Muntik ko nang tuluyang makatulugan ang pancake na 'to. Alas dos ng madaling araw, heto ako at may hawak na bowl na may lamang pancake mixture. I fell asleep on the chair while I was waiting for the pancake to be cooked. Galing pa akong convenience store dahil naghahanap din si misis ng ice cream at kimchi.I had no choice but to throw the burnt pancake and make another one. Panaka-naka ang hikab ko habang tulala sa pancake. Inabot ko ang tasa ng kape ko at humigop doon. Nang maluto ang pancake ay kaagad ko 'yong nilagay sa plato at binuhusan ng napakaraming chocolate syrup dahil 'yon ang gusto ng asawa ko. Mabilis akong umakyat sa kwarto namin dahil alam kong gutom na siya."Here's your pancake, baby," ngiti ko at humalik sa kaniyang buhok bago ilapag ang plato sa mesa. Ngumiti siya nang matamis at humalik sa mga labi ko."Thanks, ba

"What is it, son?"Hindi ko maiwasang tumitig sa anak ko dahil nakikita ko sa mukha niya ngayon na magiging seryoso ang usapan namin. It was two in the morning. I should be asleep by now but Hadrius texted me and asked if I was still awake. Iniwan ko muna sandali ang mahimbing na natutulog na si Marwa sa aming kwarto at pinuntahan ang anak namin.Ang malamig na hangin dito sa teresa ay humahaplos sa balat ko. Pinagmasdan kong mabuti si Hadrius na nakatitig lamang sa kawalan. Ilang sandali pa nang bumuntong-hininga siya."I... I had sex with someone..." he whispered softly. His voice was so low that it almost did not reach me.Napakurap ako at ilang sandaling tumitig sa anak ko."So you're telling me that you're not a virgin anymore," I concluded as I raised my eyebrow.Muli siyang bumuntong-hininga nang siguro'y marinig ang kalmado kong boses. Well, wha

"You have been ignoring me these past few days! What's wrong with you, Hadrius?!" Brianna screamed angrily, following me. I didn't bother to look at her.Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad patungo sa kotse ko. It is my Mom's birthday kaya maaga akong uuwi. At hindi ko alam kung bakit patuloy akong hinahabol ni Brianna kahit pa na malinaw naman sa kaniya kung hanggang saan lang kami. Hell! We have talked about this already! Yes! We fucked but thay doesn't mean we should be together! She was not even a virgin when we did it that's why I do not fucking understand why she was making it seemed that I have some unfinished business with her! Na para bang may responsibilidad ako sa kaniya!"Hadrius, can you please talk to me? Please! We need to talk!" She was still very persistent! I clenched my jaw to stop myself from yelling at her. I still have some remaining respect for her kahit papaano. She was making a scene! Students were looking at our dire

The urge to punch him was so strong but I had to stop myself from giving him another one because he's got a fucking point. Marahas ko siyang binitawan habang habol ko pa rin ang aking paghinga. Ngumisi siya nang tuluyang makawala sa akin."Get your shit together, man. Hindi ako mang-aagaw," natatawa niyang sinabi at napadaing nang haplusin muli ang sugat sa kaniyang labi. Mainit pa rin ang ulo ko ngunit hindi ko maitatanggi na may pagsisisi sa akin matapos ko siyang saktan."I heard you, Kuya. You said that you like her too," mariin kong sinabi."Yeah. I like her as a friend. And she knows that.""Liar," I said through gritted teeth. Muli siyang natawa at napailing."I said what I said. Trust me. I do not like that girl in a romantic way. Yeah. She's beautiful and very nice. But damn, she's 16! I'm 19, fucker!" Aniya pa na para bang sapat na dahilan na 'yon na p

I heaved a deep sigh as I prepared myself. Kinakabahan ako at... natatakot. Pero wala akong balak umatras pa. I prayed countless times before I went here. Alam kong nasa tabi ko lang ang Diyos at gumagabay sa akin.Kinuha ko ang bulaklak na pulang mga rosas sa tabi bago ako muling nagbuga ng hangin. Pinagmasdan ko ang sarili sa rearview mirror. I looked like shit. Kitang-kita ang matinding kaba sa mga mata ko ngunit wala na akong pakialam pa.Mabilis kong binuksan ang pintuan at lumabas na ng sasakyan. I was wearing a semi formal attire. Ayaw kong isipin ng mga magulang ni Sienna na hindi ko pinaghandaan ang pagpunta rito. I already texted Sienna saying that I was on my way. Kahapon ay sinabi ko sa kaniyang haharapin ko ang mga magulang niya upang pormal na magpaalam na ligawan siya.And that woman did not even want to believe me that I was serious about it. Buong akala niya ay walang katotohanan sa mga sinab

A hard slap across my face made my world shook. I did not even notice the woman who suddenly appeared in front of me. Sa gulat ko ay naalis ko ang pagkaka-akbay ko kay Nikola at nilingon ang babaeng sumampal sa akin.A woman wearing a black tight dress, looking very irresistible, was throwing daggers at me. Her brown hair was slightly disheveled but still, she fucking looked so hot.She looked like an innocent little devil wearing that dress. Napakurap ako at natulala sa kaniyang namumulang pisngi dahil sa galit."You are so disgusting, Verulendez! Napakarumi mo! My best friend is crying right now pero ikaw nandito lang at nakikipaglandian sa babae mo!" Matalim niyang tinapunan ng tingin ang katabi kong si Nikola.I swear, her voice was so sweet. Tila ba hindi siya sanay magtaas ng boses. Ngunit naguguluhan ako. What was she talking about? Sinong best friend ang tinutukoy niya?A

"Ang kapal ng mukha mo!" Nanginginig ang boses niyang sigaw. I squeezed my eyes tightly as I felt the pain from the slap slowly subsiding. Girls are crazy. Ngayon ko lang talaga napatunayan. Baliw sila.She threw punches on my chest while crying. Wala akong magawa kundi ang pigilan siya. Paano ko siya aamuhin kung sarili niya mismo ang niloloko niya? She fucking knew that we were just fucking around! We are not kids anymore!Hindi ko talaga maintaindihan kung bakit pinagpipilitan niyang girlfriend ko siya. Malinaw na malinaw sa amin na walang kahulugan ang lahat bago namin napagdesisyunang pasukin ang ganitong setup. Hindi ko siya pinilit na pumayag! Hell! I would never force a woman to enter this kind of arrangement with me. We are both consenting adults. Alam niya ang pinasok niya kaya wala siyang karapatang mag-demand ng kung ano mula sa akin dahil una pa lang ay nilinaw ko na sa kaniya ang lahat.Be

"Salamat," Nataschia smiled at me and unbuckled her seatbelt.Lumunok ako habang pinagmamasdan siya."Nataschia..." I trailed off. Sumulyap siya sa akin at nagtaas ng kilay."Hmm?""When... when can I get a kiss?" I whispered softly.Kita kong natigilan siya sa narinig. Napakurap siya."H-Huh?"Dahan-dahan akong nagpakawala ng malalim na hininga. "Kahit sa pisngi lang... please..." Sa rahan ng boses ko ay hindi ko alam kung narinig niya.Bahagyang umawang ang mga labi niya habang nakatulala sa akin.Nag-iwas ako ng tingin, nakaramdam ng hiya."I-It is okay. Forget about it." I tried to sound cool but I failed. Bakas pa rin sa boses ko ang panghihina."Yevros..." may lambing sa kaniyang tono.I glanced at her. "No. It'

"Do not fucking tell me na hindi ka na naman sasama sa amin!" Sigaw ni Harris habang pinapanood akong nagmamadaling ilagay ang mga gamit sa aking bag."Bro? What the fuck? When was the last time na sumama ka sa amin? Two fucking months ago!" This time, it was Dylan.I ignored them. Mabilis kong dinampot ang bag ko at sinampay sa aking balikat."I gotta go," saad ko at lumabas na ng silid. Dinig ko pa ang pagmumura ni Harris at Dylan sa akin ngunit binalewala ko lang sila.I texted Nataschia as I walked down the corridor. Yes. I got her number. Ilang linggo ko rin siyang kinulit para makuha ang number niya. Doon ko talaga napatunayang dapat ay maging makulit lang ako para tuluyan siyang bumigay sa akin.- Baby, my classes are done.Hindi niya naman mababasa 'yon dahil abala na siya sa karenderya.And I know that she doesn't care about it but
Breathing the Last Love Extra Chapter 9
Dagsa ang mga tao ngayon sa karenderya. Kahit tapos na akong kumain, ayaw ko pang umalis. I was hoping that I could drive her home, but she never let me. Sa isang buwan kong palaging pagpunta rito, hinihintay ko ang pag-uwi niya. Kahit alam kong hindi siya papayag, hindi pa rin ako nawawalan ng pag-asa.I watched her as she smiled at their customers while taking their orders. Kahit kita ang pagod sa kaniya, hindi nabubura ang ngiti niya sa mga tao.I heard that her parents are both dead while her brother is in jail because of rape. Ngunit ang sabi ay na-frame up lang daw ang kuya niya. Tatlong taon na raw itong nasa kulungan. Gumagawa na ako ng paraan upang matulungan ang kuya niya na makalabas. May nakausap na akong abogado. I promise that I'll do everything to get her brother out of prison.Napag-alaman ko ring nasa pangangalaga ng kaniyang lola si Nataschia na siyang nagmamay-ari ng karenderyang ito.
