"How are you feeling, Nay?" I gazed at her with concern. Brielle hadn't shared the truth about yesterday's events, and I learned about it only from Nay Belen.

"Okay lang, dong. I'm good, oi. Why worried? I was having fun there, you know." Humalakhak si Nanay at napangiti ako.

"Nag-alala ako, Nay. . . You are no longer young to wander around on your own. So, please be very careful." I gave her a quick hug.

"Oo naman. . . Hindi ko pa pwedeng iwan si Brielle ano." She smirked at Brielle, and my darling Brielle looked worried at her.

I moved to her side. "Why didn't you tell me yesterday? I could have helped," I whispered.

"Okay lang. Wala namang nangyari. Naka-uwi naman kami ng maayos dalawa ni Tiya." She placed the food she made on the table.

"Next time, please let me know first, Bree," I gritted my teeth.

"I'm here. I should be the first person to know. And the first person you seek for help."

We stared, and she nodded gently.

"Next time. I will seek you first before anything

    Brielle."You don't want us to go somewhere, Brielle. Why not? The weather is good, baby. Let's go out fishing.""No. I don't feel like fishing." Tumalikod ako kay Morris at saka nag-kunwaring abala sa lababo."Alright. So, when do you feel like fishing or swimming?""I don't know. . ." Kibit-balikat ko. Nilingon ko siya. Nakaupo siya at hawak ang mainit na kape sa kamay. Dapat sana ay pupunta siya sa kabilang Isla para mamalengke, pero pinigilan ko. Si Bleu ang gumawa nito. Inilipat ko ang gawain na ginagawa niya madalas sa amin ni tiya."Why don't we finish the project you started at your place?" I sweetly smiled and walked towards him.Nasa bandang likod na niya ako nakatayo at niyayakap siya."The tree house?""Oo... Hindi ba matagal mo na na gusto matapos iyon. Mas mabuting tapusin na natin bago ka bumalik ng Italy."Humawak siya sa kamay ko, at saka umikot ang tingin sa akin. Tumayo siya at nakatingala na ako ngayon sa kanya.Matangkad si Morris, at polido ang katawan. His broa

    Brielle.I couldn't sleep, ending up staring at him while he was asleep.Noon, hindi ako naniniwala sa pag-ibig. Wala akong alam kung ano ang nagagawa nito sa buhay ng isang tao. Marami akong tanong tungkol sa pagmamahal, at nang hindi ko makuha ang tamang sagot ay kinalimutan ko na ang mga ito.Si tiya lang ang mahalaga sa akin noon. Siya lang ang pamilya ko. Siya lang ang kinikilala kong ina. Pero nang dumating si Morris sa buhay ko, ay nagbago ang pananaw ko sa pangalang 'pag-ibig'.I suddenly feel a weird desire, longing, and love for him. I want to be with him. I can't be at peace without seeing him. I want to sleep and wake up beside him. I want him to be a part of me. I want him with me forever… I know I'm selfish at times, but… that's me.Pero hindi naman ako bulag. Alam ko ang pangako namin ni Morris sa isa't-isa. Pumayag ako sa gusto niya, dahil wala namang kasiguruhan ang buhay.I'm not a good person. I've done a lot of bad things, and I have a dark past that I've been try

    Diego’s POV .What a beautiful day, baby, and bingo! My mind speaks. My mouth never stops chewing. It tastes minty and sweet. And yes, it feels like I'm floating on cloud nine while looking at my target. Using my Barret M82, sure dead my target will no longer have a heartbeat. "Huh, let's bring home the bacon, baby," I said silently and counted the numbers in the back of my mind. Fucking damn it! Malutong na mura ko. Uno, dos, tre. . . Fuck! What the hell!? Bloody lucifer! Nagkagulo agad ang lahat sa yate. The party was over, the target was lying and everyone was screaming. Then all the heavy security came, and the place was in chaos. Fucking dimwit! I swore in silence while dismantling my equipment. Mabilis ang kilos ko at sinigurado na walang matitira ibidensya rito. I hurriedly covered my face with black covering with my full black combat. Damn it! This is my mission. Twenty million effing dollars, and someone blew it up! Who the hell? That congested ugly face! I wil

    Cariena’s POV.I walked like I'd won the Miss Universe title. I smiled wickedly and dropped the lavish black port bag I had taken with me.Nawala rin agad ang ngiti sa labi ko, at tumaas ang kilay ko nang makita ang mga tauhan ni Papa. Nakalinya silang lahat at nakayuko.They're in line like idiots in my way. Huh, mga walang silbi! "Good afternoon, Miss Cariena," bigay galang ni Edu, ang kanang kamay ni Papa. Agad niyang kinuha ang maitim na bagahe ko at napatingin siya sa helicopter na gamit ko.I lifted my brows and rolled my eyes while giving him a smirk. "T-that's not ours - " Awang ng labi niya at pilya akong ngumiti "Yes, it's not one of ours, Edu. Sa bobong mukhang aso ang helicopter na iyan!" Taas kilay ko, at nagpatuloy na ako nang hakbang. Pero nahinto lang din ako sa sarili at hinarap siyang muli.Lumawak ang ngiti sa labi niya at kinindatan pa ako.Oh heck! Ang pangit ah! Hindi ko type ang mga mukhang zombie sa harap ko! Ugh!

    Diego's POV . "That fucking lunatic! The bloody insane witch from hell! I swear, I will choke her to death and sell her body to the devil!" I repeatedly swore in the back of my mind while taking my gear out of my body. "The hell, Diego! That brain of yours is not working, man! What do you think you're doing? Why the hell you turn off that effing signal? Alam mo na iyon ang konesyon mo sa akin, at nagmamagaling ka? Huh, ang talino, pre!" kantyaw ni Morris. Umikot na siya at kinuha ang barret m82 na gamit ko kanina. He checked everything, and it was all intact. This means I did not fire a single bullet at my target. And that's a significant damn offense. Damn it! "Mainit ka kay Cariena at matunog ang pangalan mo sa lahat." My jaw tightened and I move my head in both sides. Uminit ang ulo ko at ang sarap magwala sa mga sandaling ito. That was my pure mission with a million dollars in the line. And just like that, that damn witch screwed it up! No one dared and messed up my mis

    Cariena’s POV . I can feel the warm water around my skin, which feels refreshing. It feels like I'm floating out of space. Walang iniisip, blanko ang utak. I had a few bruises that I got from the escape. I could still hear the people's screams when I fired the shotgun at my target. Huh, that was not even half of the money that Diego would get, but I stole that from him. I don't care if it's going to cost less. I want him dead. Naimulat ko ang mga mata at sa malinaw na tubig ng bathtub na ito nakasubsob ang buong katawan ko. Hubad, walang saplot at walang pakialam sa mundo. Tahimik ang buong paligid, hanggang sa marinig ko ang mahihinang hakbang na papasok dito sa banyo ko. I cursed in the back of my mind and slowly held my gun with me. It's behind me, in this bathtub, just behind my naked body. Dahan-dahan ang paghawak ko nito at mariing nakabukas ang mga mata ko. Hanggang sa naaninag ko na ang anino niya sa harapan ko. I'm like a sleeping beauty to him, but it's just that I'm

    Diego's POV . "How much did you lose?" si Ranger sa akin. "Half a mil." I jerk up and then face down. I covered my face using my hand. "Half a mil my ass," sagot ni Morris sa gilid. "You effing lost ten million? Idiot!" ngisi niya at napailing pa. "Woah, beauty!" kantyaw ni Ranger. Bahagya na siyang natawa. "May magsasayaw mamaya sa stage, bro! A freaking dimwit hot mafia!" kantyaw ni Diezel. Nag-apir pa ang tatlo. Mga walanghiya talaga ang mga baboy na ito. "Cha, cha, cha, yo!" si Morris. I looked at the three of them, and they were dancing like crazy pigs. I almost chuckled when Ranger shook his booty. Tama nga siguro na binansagan sila noon ni Saraid na tatlong baboy na nanirahan sa kabilang tuktok ng mundo. Una, si Ranger, ang happy go lucky na walang pakialam sa buhay. Pangalawa si Diezel, ang matigas at astig na walang kinatatakutan, pero pagdating sa babae ay napaka-unggoy naman. Pangatlo si Morris, ang pinakamakapangyarihan at pinakamayan sa kanila, pero baliw at wa

    Cariena's POV."Ano!? No way, Papa. Ayaw ko!"Nagtagpo ang kilay ni Papa at galit itong nakatitig sa akin. Habang si Mama? Heto, sa gilid, pilit na kinakalma ang sarili.They're getting worried after hearing from the De Lourdes Clan that the crazy El Cappuccino ordered his gangs and circle of friends to collaborate with them. . . And the mission? Is to extinguish me from this planet.Huh, ang galing nga naman ng pesting Diego De Luna de letsi ano? At talagang sagad na sa pagkadesperado sa buto, dahil pati ang kaalyado ni Papa ay ngayon ay kakampi na nila.That pest! Mura ng isip ko."This is for your safety, Siobeh. Just be away for two months while I will sort everything with the others. I will ensure to get them back at our side, which will be our payback.""Payback?" pamaywang ko, "why not do it now, Papa? Hindi ba pwede na ngayon na?"Tumalikod si Papa at napabuntonghininga. "Not now, my dear. . . El Cuppuccino put an end to my business down the north-side. That bloody idiot with

    Brielle.Nakaraos din ang gabi at heto, tulala ako sa sarili.His mother and brother, Glenn, left about an hour ago. Morris and I stayed because this restaurant also provides overnight accommodations for those who wish to stay longer than a day.Hinintay ko lang na matapos si Morris sa banyo at ako na ang kasunod. Wala ako sa sarili kanina at pilit akong nakikisama sa ina niya.She asked many questions as if she were one of my teachers in school. She seemed classy, as she came from a good family, the Monteverde.Ngayon ko lang napagtanto na hindi basta-basta ang pamilya ni Morris. May pangalan siya. May pinangangalagaan. May sari-saring negosyo sa buong Asya at Amerika and mga magulang at kapatid niya. Si Morris lang ang naiiba at hindi ko alam kung bakit. Ang alam ko lang ay may negosyo rin naman siya sa Italya, pero hindi raw kalakihan ito. Hindi raw tulad ng kapatid niyang si Glenn at ng mga magulang niya."Are you alright?"I spun, and there he was, standing a few feet from me, a

    Morris."Just meet them. That's the only way. Glenn is doing everything he could. He is in a tight sport, Mors. Hindi ko ito sasabihin sa 'yo ngayon. Pero ginagawa ni Glenn ang lahat para sa 'yo. He might be heartless, but he loves you as his brother."I shut my eyes while listening to Reeve in the line. Wala siya rito at nasa Amerika. Pansamantala, ay si Glenn ang humahawak sa negosyo niya na nasa parehong Isla."I already gave Glenn the details, and your mother will be there. Meet them for once," he added.I gritted my teeth. "I hate the old man," I uttered under my breath."He is not around the country at the moment. It's a good opportunity, Mors. And with the deal Glenn made with your father, it saves you."I inhaled deeply and shook my head.That lunatic Glenn, really? How many times I told him not to worry about me. He needs to worry about himself first! Ang tigas ng ulo niya."I know what you're thinking, Morris. Glenn is your brother. You and him are the same, bro. Hard heade

    Brielle."All of the sudden? Akala ko ba hindi ka seryoso sa relasyon na ito? Hindi ba sinabi mo sa akin na wala kang maipapangako?" I looked at him, confused, thinking of the other way around. Excited ako, at kabog ang pintig ng puso ko habang dikit ang tingin ko sa mga mata niya. Napaigting siya, at nakuha ko agad ang ibig niyang sabihin.I sighed, feeling disappointed. "Okay lang, Morris. You don't have to force yourself to introduce me to your parents. I'm not ready for this." Inunahan ko na. I shook my head and turned away from him. I know I should be celebrating because most woman looks forward to this... To introduce them to the parents of the person they love. But Morris is different. We already had a deal. He doesn't want any lingering promises, and I don't like this. I don't want a commitment. Kahit pa sabihin na natin na sabik ako at gusto ko naman, ay puno naman ng pag-aalala ang puso ko. Kaya mas mabuting wala na."Hey, Bree. Listen to me." He followed me.I paused an

    Morris."Did you stuff it up?" Bryce asked in the line."No. I did not, asshole. I'm not as sick as you," I laughed while connecting the line to Linus."Fuck. You know you're an asshole, too, at times, Mors. You almost give me a heart attack, bro." He chuckled. His line came back clear now, and I can see him better than before."Yo, looks great! What did you do to yourself, Mors? You're finger-licking good, man," Linus spat. He can see me better, too.My face flushed, and I shook my head."Psst, keep quiet, gentleman. Let me remind you that our big black bear is in love." Diezel uttered."What? Damn. Are you serious?" Bryce's mouth parted. "I can't believe it." He shook his head."Oh well, who's the lucky girl?" Linus smiled."Let me guess? Is it Brielle? Siya lang naman ang magtitiyaga sa isang katulad mo, Mors," kantyaw ng walanghiyang Diezel."Stuff you." I cursed and growled at him, and the rest of them laughed."Ibang klase… So, this Brielle what she's like?" Linus asked."Oh, u

    Brielle.Mainit, pero hindi masakit ang sikat ng araw. Naka two-piece swim suit ako at tinutulungan ako ni Morris sa paglagay ng sunscreen.Nasa gitna na kami ng dagat at may dalawang fishing rod na nakatambay na para sa isda. Hinihintay na lang ni Morris na may kumain sa pain niya."All done, babe. You are well covered and protected from sunburnt." He puts back the lotion on the side bench."Thank you, babe," agap ko at kinuha ko na ang sombrero. "Hmm, gaano ba katagal ang isda?" Titig ko sa dalawang fishing rod sa harapan."In a second… here we go." Pumwesto agad si Morris at hinawakan ang fishing rod. May isda na. Pero gumalaw rin agad ang isang fishing rod. May isda na rin ito."Take that one, babe.""Okay… paano nga ba?" Pinuwesto ko ang dulo ng fishing rod sa tagiliran at saka hinatak ko ang reeling pabalik sa akin. "Ang bigat!""Just hold still. I won't be long with this, and I will help you with that," he says and quickly maneuvered his move.Steady lang ang hawak ko at reeli

    Morris."Done and dusted. All sorted, boss.""Motlo bene, Blue. Very good. And please don't call me boss, especially in front of Brielle." I whispered because I could see Brielle ahead, smiling, approaching me."Va bene, capo."I smirked a little. Still, he called me boss in the Italian language. Asshole."Morris, baby!" Brielle hugged me, and I hugged her tighter. Blue sharply looked at her, and by the time his eyes glanced at me, I growled. He then dipped his head."Y-you have someone with you?" Nakatingin na si Brielle kay Bleu, at nakayuko pa rin ang gago."Yes. This is Blue, baby. He is my dear friend," I introduced. "Say hello to my girl, Bleu."Tumitig muna si Bleu sa akin at maamo na ang mukha niya. At saka kay Brielle na siya ngumiti."È un piacere conoscerla, signora." Nilahad niya ang kamay kay Brielle."Huh? Ano raw?" Brielle looked at me in confusion. I gritted my teeth, giving Bleu an ultimatum."Fanculo. Parla in inglese, Blu." I fucking swore, asking him to talk in En
