"First thing that we need to include is the basic room information at iyong room sizes. And of course, the second aspect that we need to consider ay iyong layout o structure ng internal rooms," I said with a small smile on my lips. "I want a Mid-century modern house with courtyard. Do you still remember, honey?" Winona glanced at his husband, Gregory. "Nathalia Smith's house!""Yeah. The one in Glasgow? But I thought we've already decided about the theme of our house? I thought Nautical Escape is fine with you?" Gregory creased his forehead. "No! I have changed my mind. I really like her house! That's why I didn't hesitate to get Talianna as our architect. She's also the one who designed that. Right, Talianna?" Winona smiled sweetly at me."Yup. That was three years ago when I designed her house. She just got married that time," I responded. I sipped on my tea as I wait for them to say something."Hmmm. I want two rooms and a master bedroom. Two full bathroom and one half bathroom.

The doctor said that there was no improvement in my Dad's health. He was diagnosed with a subarachnoid hemorrhage and brain aneurysm. He spent the next 21 days in the ICU. It had never crossed my mind that he had this disease. Whenever we visit him in the Philippines, he was perfectly fine.We visit him only once a year and we are staying for a whole week. The last time we visited him, I noticed that he often had a headache but I never made a big deal out of it."Mom, when are we going to the white sands? And why is Grandpa always asleep? Is he very tired, Mommy? He's been asleep for awhile now! I never thought that's possible." Vendrick's voice had a hit of amazement.I smiled gently at him as I fixed his pajama."Do you always pray at night like what I told you?" I uttered in a soft voice.He nodded cheerfully. "You told me to pray for him so that he'll be awake very soon. Why can't we just wake him up, Mommy?" "We can't, baby. The only thing that we can do right now is to pray. An

I stopped walking when I noticed that Sandro was still there, talking to Nabrel who was looking at me. I lazily rolled my eyes."Sandro, did you hear me? I wanna go home now. Let's go! I do not want to stay any longer here!" I was not able to hide the annoyance in my tone. Nabrel pouted. He even raised an eyebrow at me. I rolled my eyes, crossing my arms infront of my chest."Here I come, Ma'am!" Sandro said.I quickly glanced at Nabrel. His eyes were still on me. I stared back at him but I broke it off when I noticed a woman approaching behind him.It was a tall woman who was wearing a white dress. Her hair was tied in a low ponytail. Her dress was being swept away by the gentle wind. My lips parted a bit when my eyes focused on her round belly.Lily... She did not change a bit. If she did, she looked even more beautiful now. Of course... she was still the winner in the end. Who would have thought? The woman I was terribly jealous of before was now the mother of his child. How fu

I was checking my email while having my coffee in the morning. The calm sea was my view on the balcony. I read the new email I have received.I would like to arrange an appointment to discuss about my home renovation. Please, would you indicate a suitable time and place to meet? It would be more convenient if we'd meet around Makati City. I am looking forward to hearing from you and arranging a meeting. Thank you!Best regards,Amelda Torres SalongaI put down my coffee to type a message. Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, I'm currently on a vacation for a month here in Belleza Eterna. However, if you are available in the following weeks, I would be glad to arrange a meeting with you. I would be available to discuss about your home renovation on September 08 (Saturday) at Benjarong Thai Restaurant at exactly 6 pm. Yours truly, Ar.

After I ate, he went back. There is still a lot of foods left. I only ate one butted toast, one sausage and some piece of vegetables. I did not even touch my rice."Just stay on your seat. I will do this." Nabrel glared at me when I was about to help him clean the table."Suit yourself!" I rolled my eyes and remained on the couch like what he had said.I crossed my arms infront of my chest as I watched his every move. His brows were furrowed a bit as though he was doing a very challenging task. He did not even spare me a glance.I rolled my eyes when his eyes quickly glanced at my direction."Did you change my clothes? Why am I wearing this longsleeves polo?" I pointed at the clothes I was wearing.His dark brows furrowed even more. The foods were already on the tray. It seemed that he was done."Minda was the one who changed your clothes," he answered in a deep voice. I sensed a bit of annoyance in there."And why the hell are you mad? Where is this Minda you are talking about, then?

"Sandro is on his way here. He will send you home." Nabrel's voice was serious, not looking at me. His eyes were focused on his plate as we had our breakfast.I pouted, nodding my head slightly. I was wearing my red sweaters which Minda had washed already. If I was insane, I would probably steal all his clothes and bring them home. There is something comforting about being able to get a whiff of his clothes. It's calming... comforting... And aside from that, I rock his clothes more than I probably should. Thank God the rain has stopped and the sun has already come out. The warm and vibrant light of the sun made its way inside the room through floor-to-ceiling windows. He brought foods in his room and we ate together. We were both silent. I was glancing at him as I sipped on my coffee.He was wearing a dark blue sleeveless shirt and white shorts. Muscles rippled under his shirt. My gaze dropped to his powerful chest. As much as I did not want to, my eyes stared at it longer than I

I was coming down the stairs when I heard Sandro's voice. He was talking to Fely and they were laughing together. It was a Saturday morning. I just finished my workout routine and already done taking a shower. I only have a whole week left to enjoy my stay here before I go back to Manila. "Oh! Here she is. I am sure she will come because she has nothing to do here. She is always bored," Fely said when she saw me.Sandro flashed his wide grin when our eyes met. I smiled back at him. Why is here? Again? He is Nabrel's subordinate and I know that he is here again for a reason. "You are really beautiful, Ma'am!" Sandro uttered, looking at me with adoration in his eyes. I can't help but roll my eyes at him. He scratched the back of his head."Engineer is in the garden," he said like I had to know about that. I creased my forehead. He ignored my reaction as his smile was still wide."We brought you some shrimps and squids. We fished earlier, Ma'am," he continued."Thank you," I said polit

I don't know if I was already tipsy or worse, drunk. I could not comprehend the things around me anymore. All I wanted to do was to find out what they were doing inside and why they were taking so long so come back!I knew damn well that I should not give a fuck about things like this but I just can't sit on that fucking chair while a small voice kept on whispering inside my head. I swear, I will go crazy.What were they doing? Really, Nabrel? While your celebration is ongoing? While your guests were outside... and you were here... with that woman...My heart felt so heavy in each step. I was breathing so fast and hard that I thought I am going to lose my balance. I felt the tears forming in the corner of my eyes.I was fuming mad. That is all I am sure about.I went to the dining area. There were some waiter in there, preparing some foods. I immediately turned around and left the place when I did not see them.I bumped into Minda who was holding a tray. She had a huge smile on her li

I was staring at the ceiling all night. There was a small voice inside my head, making me realized the things I mindlessly said to Nabrel a couple of hours ago.I closed my eyes tightly as I flipped my body on the bed.Why did I say that? And now, I can't even sleep because of regret I am feeling.I pushed the comforter away from my body and got off the bed. My steps were fast as I went out of the room. I did not even knock in the guestroom where he was. A dark room welcomed my sight. It was cold because of the air conditioner. I gently closed the door.I bit my lower lip as I walked carefully towards the bed. I saw his silhouette through the dark. He was laying on his stomach. I could even hear his breathing.My heart clenched painfully whenever I think about the things that I have said to him. I never wanted to say those words. I never wanted him to hear those from me.I laid beside him. I wrapped my arm around his waist as I buried my face on his neck. He moved slightly. I remaine

"Mommy?"I immediately pushed Nabrel when I heard that familiar small voice.I saw Vendrick who was peeking from the door. I did not even notice that it has been opened!I cleared my throat before I glanced at Nabrel who had his hands on his hips as he brushed his fingers through his hair.I stood up and went to Vendrick."What are you doing, Mommy? Who's that? And why is it so dark in here? Where's Daddy?" I carried him and turn on the lights. Vendrick's innocent eyes drifted immediately to Nabrel.Nabrel was simply staring at us. He had this unreadable expression. His lips were pressed into a thin line. "Why is there a stranger in your room, Mommy?" Vendrick was kitting his forehead as he studied Nabrel. "Who are you?""I am your real father," Nabrel uttered in a cold voice that made my eyes widened.He pouted when he saw my reaction."What? But my father is Davien De Loughrey. Mommy, do I have two fathers also?" The kid was beyond confused when he looked at me, waiting for confi

"Why did you come? You should have just take a rest," I uttered after I pulled away from hug.He just smiled at me, grabbing my hand."Do you want to ride the boat?" he asked me as he started walking, still holding my hand."Ride a boat? Now?" My brows furrowed. "We will going to watch the sunrise, baby. Just like before..."When the boat started moving, he went back beside me and sat. The sea was still dark, even the sky. I hugged myself when the cold breeze kissed my skin. I just covered my night dress with a tobe so I was freezing cold."I am sorry. This is so sudden," he whispered as his arm wrapped around my waist, pulling me more closer to him a if we still had space."It is really so sudden. Why are you showing up suddenly like a mushroom?""Don't you want me to?" he asked softly.I rolled my eyes. "It's not that. I was not even able to bring jacket. It is so cold." I also noticed that he was not wearing a jacket, only black t-shirt. Like he was really used of such cold weath

"Did you enjoy your few week of vacation in here?" Davien's voice was cold. That was the first words he said when we started eating.I quickly glanced at him from my plate. We were sitting across each other. I was silent the whole time and I am sure that he was watching me.When I got home few hours ago, I did not say anything to him and neither him. He was silent when he saw me but I could feel that his attention was on me. The only words he said was when he called me to eat and after that, he left."Of course." I even smiled at him. But he did not have to know the reason behind my smile.Vendrick was already in his room and sleeping. He was already sleeping when I got home. I did not expect that he brought the child with him. Fely just mentioned that the kid was upstairs and sleeping because he was tired from playing at the shore. The maids were outside now so Davien and I were the only person in the dining area.Even though I was tired, I told Nabrel to send me home. He wanted to g

"What are you talking about?" I was just staring at his dark face. I don't even know if those words really escaped my lips. I feel like everything froze in front of me. I shook my head as my knees felt so weak. I was struggling to find my own voice. The beat of my heart was suddenly so hard to portray in words. His forced laugh was filled with affliction. His voice was broken when he said all the words."I have waited, Talianna. I waited for two fucking years inside that fucking prison. Even just a peek..." His words came out through clenched teeth. I saw how his eyes darkened with pure anger and sorrow."Even just a fucking peek..." His eyes were already filled with tears. While I was still powerless in my spot. I was frozen. I could not even blink. "Y-You're lying... no..." I shook my head repeatedly. "Why are you lying?!" I slammed my fists to his chest despite of my wobbling knees. I pushed him with all my strength. He did not even move. He just let me but his gaze was making m
