Tres Salveirus, my gay bestfriend for six years. But one day he confessed that he was 0% gay—that he's only pretending to be because he doesn't know how to court me. My dislike of liars was the reason for the destruction of our friendship. I rejected him on the spot and slapped him with painful words. I called him a liar, a pervert because I once let him see my nudity since I am a model for lingerie brands, and accused him of exploiting my lack of idea about his gender. I actually told him to leave and never come back. But when he left, I was coated with heartbreaks realizing that I loved him too late, missing his presence, that I almost never gave up looking for him on social media but still no avail. It took five years his image is still in my head and I am coated with regret for pushing him away. I never thought that when we meet again, I will see him as an unreachable man. His Tres Salveirus name has now become Third Zachary Salveirus Deluco, reason why I can't search him in any corner of social media. And apart from being the CEO, I didn't think he was a member of the Deluco Titans—the dominant people in the field of business. I know I made a pledge to the eternal god that once I meet him again, I will not miss the opportunity to bring him back to me, but how can I do that if he is that high? I'm just a lowly lingerie bands model while he's a billionaire. Do I still have the courage to chase him?
View MoreCASSANDRANasaktan ako sa 30 over 100 na binigay ni Tres. I can't help but cry, but I can't show to my group that I'm crying either. I know, they understand why but my reason is more than my reason they knew.Talagang pinaramdam ni Tres sa akin na galit siya at totoong mahihirapan ako. Wala naman akong ibang gusto kundi ang malapitan siya at makausap man lang, pero ayokong ilagay sa kahihiyan ang sarili ko kaya pinupursige ko ang modeling contest na ito bilang paraan ko.Naniniwala kasi ako na once nasa itaas na ako, malaki ang posibilidad na magkakaroon ako ng pagkakataon na makausap siya. I want him to know that I regret rejecting him that day at sa mga masasakit na salitang binitawan ko. Hindi naman totoong never ko siyang magustuhan, na galit ako sa kaniya. Kabaliktaran ang naramdaman ko nang mahimasmasan ako. Bawal ba talaga magulat? Hindi ko lang kasi alam ang gagawin ko noon after he confesses, of course he knows me as hard to get. Pero sa ngayon, halata talagang galit siya.
THIRD In Sterin De Natch, since Fifth and Sais are with us now, the hangout is held at the pool. Fifth loves to swim, especially at night. Mabilis rin kasi mag-init sa upuan ang puwet niya kung doon lamang kami sa loob. Pagdating ko, saktong tumalon si Sais sa pool, si Fifth na naman ay nakalublob na rin sa tibig, habang si uno naman nakaupo sa upuan na nakatayo lang sa mismong gilid ng pool, kaharap nito ay si Fourth, halatang mayroon silang pinag-uusapan ngunit hindi naman ganoon kaseryoso. Mayroon lamang lamesa sa pagitan nila, at sa right side ni Uno sa left side ni Fourth nakaupo doon si Dos. Doon ako dumiretso, na agad rin namang napansin ni Uno. Sa pagtingin niya sa akin, lumingon si Dos, agad itong tumayo. Si Fourth naman ay pasimple lang akong tiningnan. Lagi naman. "Kung empleyado kita, wala ka nang trabaho kinabukasan," ani Dos, na kumuha ng baso, at nilagyan ito ng alak. Umikot ako sa kabila kung saan may bakanteng upuan ngunit kung halimbawa pag-inatake ng katarantad
THIRD "How is your new secretary, okay ba? Sapat na ba?" tanong ni Uno habang papasok na kami sa convention. Sumagot naman ako habang nag-aayos ng pin ng suit ko sa wrist, "Wala akong issue sa kaniya. She's good and thanks. I appreciate it." Totoo ang sinabi ko, tila magaling manghula ng isipan ang bagong secretary ko at totoo ngang tomboy siya.He nodded. He went in first, I just followed. Walking in the backstage, some of the models were already outside and some were still in the dressing room. Dalawang exit ng runway, si Uno, Dos at ako, ay tumungo sa kanang exit, ang tatlo naman naming kapatid ay nasa kaliwa. Hindi magtatagal ay magsisimula na ang show, at mukhang kami lang din ang hinihintay. "I think I like the number 8," Dos mumurs, at pagtingin ko sa kaniya na nakatayo sa tabi ko. He's smirking.Hindi pa ba siya kontento sa sekretarya niya at gusto pang tumikim ng White Kiss participants? Uno glared at him, hissing, "Tame your dick, Dos." Currently up here at the back of
CASSANDRAhuffed trying to muster up the courage. I say nothing to myself but the word, 'kaya ko ito, para kay Tres ito.' I ignored the hosts saying: male and female voice. But after they introduced themselves, what they said next dominated my attention."And now it's time to pay attention to our Deluco Titans!" People chanting loudly. Napatingin ako sa kabilang linya ng mga model. Masyadong malayo ito mula sa kinaroroonan namin, malapad kasi ang runway sa labas ng backstage na ito, at parehong exit ang kinaroroonan namin. Katulad ko, ngiting tagumpay rin ang suot ng mga modelong iyon. Ang totoo nga niyan, ang ilan sa kanila ay nakakausap ko na rin, at wala akong problema sa mga ugali. Napaka-professional makitungo, unlike sa mga dating pageant na sinalihan ko dati.Curious lang talaga kasi ako kung ang nararamdaman ko bang abo't langit na kaba ay nararamdaman rin nila? "Let's start with the sixth brother of Delucos!" Chant ng female voice. She added, "He is known as one of the st
CASSANDRANapa-igtad ako nang sundutin ni Maple ang tagiliran ko. "Tamis ng ngiti!" Tumingin ako sa kaniya. The way she looked at me malinaw na curious siya. "Napa'no ka?" Thinking about what happened earlier, napangisi ako. Nangalumbaba na tumingin sa labas, at pinagmasdan ang mga streetlights na dinadaanan ng aming sasakyan. Kasalukuyan na kasi kaming nasa byahe pauwi sa Perfect Muse building. Hindi mawala sa isip ko si Tres, sobrang bango niya, sobrang gwapo. "Mukhang may something na nangyari kanina, Maple. 'Lam mo na!" paghula ni Painch. Nasa tabi lang ito ni Maple, si Maple kasi ang makaupo sa pagitan namin. Then Painch asked me, "Hoy, Sandra! May nakita ka doon kanina no?" Kasama namin si Madame Miles. Hindi niya pwedeng malaman na si Tres ay si Third. Ayoko pa, hindi pa ako handa kaya nag-isip ako ng palusot at ang nasabi ko ay, "Kinikilig ako sa isang sapatos doon kanina. Sobrang gwapo—este maganda!" Kinagat ko ang labi ko, muntik na ako magkamali ng term.Alam ko na magu
CASSANDRAI looked away and secretly took a deep breath. I shouldn't wonder why he denied na kilala niya ako. Deserve ko naman ideny, masakit nga lang, pero deserve ko rin masaktan. Kasalanan ko naman eh, at deserve ko rin magsisi. Hinanap ko siya sa loob ng limang taon tapos heto...ouch! Hindi niya ako kilala. "Oh! Really..." Halata sa boses ni Dos na hindi siya naniniwala. He actually added, "The way you look at her..." I inhaled deeply feeling Dos' eyes zeroing in on me, as he asked me too, "You know him?" He jerked his thumb at Tres.Pati ang isa nilang kapatid tila interesado sa sagot ko, the way he looked at me, clearing his throat secretly but still noticeable whilst nasa bulsa ang mga kamay niya. Para talaga akong matutunaw dito sa harapan nilang tatlo, pero sinikap kong magsalita sa kabila ng magkahalo-halong emotion ko, "Yes." Tumingin ako kay Tres. His brows quirked as he seemed ready to deny me again, but I added, "I see him everywhere, he's a famous CEO of a famous Li
CASSANDRAAt the yoga center with another model of the Perfect Muse, my body is currently running over the yoga wheel and slowly placing my hand close to hold the wheel that passes over my head, as well as my feet, so that I can roll my body in the process of the wheel. In short, I'm doing the pigeon pose to target the hips opener and forward bend.Ipinikit ko ang aking mga mata, kailangan kong tumagal sa ganitong posisyon in 30 seconds, lalo na't may time basis ang aking instructor. It was quiet around and he was just talking to me calmly. Sometimes what he says doesn't absorb in my mind especially when I remember Tres. I really feel that what I dreamed is true.Kasama ko ba talaga siya kagabi? Siya ba talaga ang nanita sa lalaking muntik na akong bastusin? Tapos niyakap niya ako, totoo kaya iyon?After 30 seconds, nagbago na naman ako ng posisyon ayon sa dikta ng instructor ko. I stretched my legs straight to relax. "We observed your balanced diet, the way you take food—I mean what
THIRD I need short-term distractions to relax myself from the difficulties I'm dealing with today. But, still no biggie, it's not about business but just about a personal issue. My problem with the company is only my secretary and there is always a solution for that.My concern is my self issue, I really don't understand what's wrong with me right now. Luckily, I didn't have an appointment with my designer, I purposely put this matter aside to give myself time to spend the night with my brothers.Parking my car in front of Sterin De Natch, I breathe out glancing outside, kung saan makikita ang iba't ibang mga babaeng naka-abang sa paglabas ko. This is one of famous night club also owned by Dos. But often those who come here are wealthy people, mostly foreigners, or others are college students from international universities. Ramdam ko rin ang mga maiinit na matang nakatutok sa sasakyan ko since Lamborghini Sian itong gamit ko. Talagang nakakaagaw pansin ito para sa iba but for me h
THIRD This day...I don't know if I can call it worst or great day. I was out of focus all day, I canceled three appointments, I couldn't concentrate on work, yet I felt happy, as if the feelings of missing her were relieved, but the pain returned as well.The moment of how she rejected me, pushed me away as if I had never been a good person to her, came back to my memory. She was one of those people who made me feel unworthy of love that I'm not acceptable even if taken advantage of. Oo nga, mataas na ang posisyon ko ngayon. Ako ang nakaupo sa trono pero alam ko ang katotohanan sa likod ng buhay na mayroon ako. As the CEO of White Kiss? I can't say, I'm lucky because I'm the son of a Billionaire Deluco. I'm just like the Lingerie, a product but the base of everything.Isa lang ako sa mga anak na sinadyang buuin ng aking ama sa sinapupunan ng aking ina, hindi para maging parte ng buhay niya kundi para tagahawak ng ari-arian niya. Masakit isipin na hinintay niya lang akong lumaki, at
CASSANDRA "Can you insert your thumb into the garter?" The word sounds weird to the ears but in the world of models, I'm used to it. I did as he said, simply glancing at the camera he was placing on his right eye. Imagine, isa siyang CEO pero siya ang gumagawa ng trabaho ng mga photographer? Nice? No...Mukhang hindi pa siya kuntento sa pinapagawa niya sa akin. Inalayo niya sandali ang camera sa mukha niya at sinabing, "Could you pull up your garter a little? Para lang ito sa promotion, proof na ang item ay high quality. Hope you..." He trailed off at dinugtungan ng gesture ng kamay upang ipaintindi sa akin ang ibig niyang sabihin. My stomach twists, my body does not accept his words but he has a point. He has the right to demand because this is his product and he is paying me as its model. I heaved a sigh and tumango. "Yes sir." Nag-pose ako. Three flashes of light from the camera hit my eyes and created luminosity in my vision. Umayos siya ng tayo. As he staring at the result, n...
