Happy reading...
Her answer is so simple and Emman finds it quite convincing and satisfying therefore he didn't ask for more. He just sighed and went. "Living a life far from who you are must be very difficult for you, wasn't it?" "I was actually enjoying it," she chuckled as she went. "But there were things that I'm too naive to understand. And before I could take them, everything was crashing down on me. The simple world I tried to build was gone so here I am, back to who I really am..." Tumango lamang si Emman habang nakikinig. The way he looked at her, was full of admiration as he didn't expect her to say these words to him. It was rare for them to talk in a serious mode since the moment she went back as a new person. "It never occurred to me that my father was right all along. I never believed him, you know. I was too innocent and ignorant to think that the outside world was full of nice stuff..." she continued. "It was such a horrible yet life-changing journey for me and I learned a lot from i
Habang nagtatalo ang dalawa sa kabilang ward, si Tommy at Sofia naman ay nagkasundo."Miss Castillo, hindi na ako magpapaligoy-ligoy pa. I know you know why I'm here..." he began."Unfortunately, hindi ko talaga alam ang pakay mo sa pagbisita dito, Mr. Torres. Akala ko nakaramdam ka lang ng malasakit sa kapwa mo that's why you're here..." Ang tono ng pananalita nito ay animo'y sarcastic but Tommy ignored it and went on."Ruella is my woman. Kung ano man ang pinaplano mo about her, you better think it over otherwise you will lose him..." he threatened her ngunit tumawa lamang ang dalaga na para bang balewala lang sa kanya ang sinabi nito."I lost him already kaya naman wala na akong dapat pang ikatakot! And you know what?" she paused to take a deep breath then she went on. "He's going to be with her. And we can't do anything about it.""That's why I'm here. I want you to give your best and I'll help you. Huwag mo siya pakawalan. Don't let them be together." Tommy said, sounding despera
"Sierra, will you just keep your mouth shut?!" Tommy couldn't help hissing out loud. "Leave us!" "Huh!" Sierra scoffed, rolling her eyes. "I'm not going to leave. We have something to discuss." Then her cold eyes darted towards her silent sister. "Ruella, you probably know that this day will come right? I shared the same blood and flesh with you but..." "Sister, just half of your flesh and blood, if I remind you..." Ruella muttered sarcastically. "And I don't like to share what's yours so don't overthink." With that, she tilted sideways and added, "If nothing else. I want to excuse myself." Pagkatapos nito magsalita ay tumalikod na ang dalaga leaving the two alone. Instead of going directly inside the mansion, she checked on Andrea in the backyard. Pagktapat pa lamang nito sa pinto ay narinig na nito ang boses na nagmamakaawa. "Please, pakawalan ninyo ako... Parang awa n'yo na..." She rolled her eyes as she opened the iron door. There she saw her former best friend stinking and
Ruella hastily walked towards her car when the man she'd caught sight of earlier ran after her. "Miss Ventura, please wait!" He called her out from behind. She halted in her tracks and turned around. "You look familiar. Tell me, have we met before?" She asked. "Yes. Remember the maternity boutique?" he said, casting out a gentle smile. "Oh," she gasped after a quick recollection of her memory. "So you are that person. Funny how the world turns out small, isn't it? Sorry if you see me like this..." "Not actually. I'm here because your father called me. I heard that you need someone to work with but before we talk about that, let me drive you to your destination..." The man suggested politely, however, Ruella shook her head in refusal. "I'm sorry but I can't let anyone drive me. I want to be alone for now," "I promise not to talk if that would make you feel better..." the man insisted. "Hindi talaga pwede. Pasensya ka na." She said as she opened the door of the driver's seat but
"Rise and shine, Beautiful..." Pagmulat ng mga mata ni Ruella, isang boses ng lalaki ang kanyang narinig mula sa hindi kalayuan.Napalunok siya at biglang naalarma ng makita na wala siya sa pamilyar na lugar. Lalo pa siyang nataranta ng makita niya ang maskuladong lalaki. Wala itong pang-itaas habang nakatingin sa kanya mula sa may pintuan.Bumalikwas siya ng bangon at nagtanong. "Where am I?" "In my place..." Joseph said striding in. "Nakatulog ka kagabi sa puntod ng mother mo that's why I took you here."She looked down at herself. She noticed that she was wearing a new set of blue pajamas. Her eyes widened. "You! Did you..." She swallowed as her words halted when he chuckled."Relax..." Joseph said, "It wasn't me who changed your clothes but my nanny, however, I don't have a woman's clothes here so I hope you don't mind if I let you just wear mine..."She fell silent as she didn't know what to say. Hindi niya inaasahan na magkakaroon ulit siya ng utang na loob sa lalaking ito la
Simula ng magising siya sa coma, no one attempted to talk about her child. It was a forbidden topic between her and her father at ganun din kay Tommy as it would only trigger her inner turmoil and emotional breakdown. Last night, when she went to that little tomb for the first time, she poured her tears out until she fell asleep. Somehow after that, she felt better enough to move forward. Live with the pain and endure it until she felt exhausted. This was what she thought as she swore not to forget her child not even a second while she's breathing. However, when she heard Oliver talk about the child, her mood made a drastic change. From the man that chooses to abandon them way back, she was furious! 'How dare you talk about my daughter? You have no right to mention her!' Sa isip-isip niya. Sa sobrang galit, she trembled. She badly wants to lash out at the man in front of her but she keeps her mouth shut. It was pointless to do so kaya naman she fell silent, holding back her emotio
"Nagulat ba kita?" Malamig na tanong ni Ruella habang nakatitig ito sa kanya. "And you still want me to believe that what you are about to do has nothing to do with me?" Oliver retorted. "I already explained everything to you, haven't I? And things already changed, Rue..." Once again sinusubukn niya magpaliwanag ngunit tinawanan lamang siya nito."Things changed indeed." She bellowed in a hollow voice. "You're now after me. Was it because you found out that I am a bigger catch compared to her?" "You," he went utterly speechless. Though he wanted to defend himself, he couldn't as he was the one who implanted these bitter words in her mind. He stick to his ambition and discarded her love way back and now she's giving him the dose of his own medicine."So tell me, kailan kayo ikakasal para naman makapaghanda ako ng malaking regalo? I promise to be generous." "Rue, do you really hate me this much?" He whispered askance "Why do you have to keep the child from me?" She shook her head, c
When Andrea returned to Ruella's office, she was silent as she saw her boss's attention glued to a particular document. She just stood there in the corner patiently waiting for the latter's order, however for Ruella, she actually sensed her presence but she just ignored it and went on reading the documents.Half an hour later...She called her other assistant and began to fill in her instructions. "I want you to take Miss Sanchez with you to meet this person..."The latter keep nodding his head and after that, he urged the latter to go out.When the door closed, it was only then that she dropped the documents. She's got nothing for Andrea to do actually. She want her to linger around her office to see how much she could endure her presence but after a couple of minutes, she gave up the idea because she couldn't get herself to focus when someone was watching her like a hawk. She felt annoyed thus she creeped out!To relax, she went to her pantry to make a cup of coffee.Pagbalik niya s
