Brodie."So, you are, Brodie. It's Deigo, man. Nice meeting you."We shake hands, and Diego chuckles. I grit my teeth as I look at Carmella talking happily to Cariena.Diego was late tonight as he just finished shooting a movie. He's a stuntman."How is she? Is she treating you well?"Pilyo ang pinakawalang ngiti ni Diego at saka kumuha siya ng dalawang beer sa loob ng ref. Ibinigay niya ang isa sa akin at naupo na siya sa tabi ko. Nakatingin kaming pareho sa dalawang babae na panay ang kwento at tawa sa isa't-isa."She's treating me like a king, Diego. Not a problem with that." Sagot ko at ininom ko na ang beer."Talaga? Huh, that's new. I mean, don't get me wrong, Brodie. But the Carmella that I know what hard as stone and crazy as fuck.""Hey, I heard that!" Naningkit agad ang mga mata ni Carmella kay Diego ngayon."See that, Brodie? I told you, right? That's her, man!" reklamo ni Diego."Umalis na nga muna tayo rito. Let's talk outside." Tumayo si Cariena at naunang tumalikod. Su

Carmella.It was lovely to see them again—Cariena and Diego. Although it was short, I was happy because I knew they were now leaving in peace.Iba na ang buhay nila sa buhay nila noon at masaya na ako para kay Diego. Marami ang nagbago kay Diego at napatunayan ko ito. Iba na nga siguro ang buhay kapag may sariling anak na at may pinoprotektahan na pamilya.Amoy ko agad ang polusyon sa hangin nang makalapag sa NAIA airport. Na miss ko ang Pinas at ang iilang tao rito."Carmella!" Ang nakangiting mukha ni Feleona ang sumalubong sa amin ni Brodie."My ghad! I miss you!" Higpit na yakap niya."Hello, Brodie. How are you?" Yakap niya rin kay Brodie. "I'm glad you accepted my invitation.""May choice ba ako?" Ngumiwi ako at natawa agad siya. Napailing si Brodie at napangiti sa aming dalawa.I have no choice but to accept Feleona's invitation. First birthday ng pangalawang anak nila ni Gabriel, at sa isang pridadong Isla ito magaganap sa Palawan.Brodie and I will be staying one week here i

Epilogue.Brodie."All is okay now, Brodie. You don't have to worry anymore. You've done your part, bro, and I will do the rest. This is my war against them, not yours. So, just take care of Carmella for me."My jaw tightened while listening to Axton in the line. Even if he didn't tell me, I would do what was right for Carmella. I don't need his opinion at all."Aren't you planning on taking over the business there?" I asked. The last time I spoke with him, I told him about it and that it would be best if he could continue the business while he was in Italy."For what? I'm not a Gray, Brodie."I chuckled. "Yes, you are, Axton. You don't have to be born as a Grey by blood, but in the eye of the law, you are my brother."Natahimik bahagya ang kabilang linya at pati na ako. Matigas si Axton, at ito siguro ang nagustuhan nina Mama at Papa sa kanya. My parents never spoiled us, but provided us everything with love. Hindi ko kailanman naramdaman sa mga magulang ko na iba ang trato nila kay

Zebedee Glenn Mondragon.My brows furrowed as I read my mother's note. I scoffed and slightly smirked.Yeah, I'm so sick of it. Dammit.I unbutton my black suit and hang it on the dry rack. Then, I stride down the hallway to the spacious kitchen.The lavish fridge, which was like a wall, seemed like nothing around the place, but with a single tap on the side, you could almost see what was inside."Damn, Morris," I mouthed and drank the sparkling water.I don't know how to answer my mother this time. I refused to respond, and I knew she would never give up.Hell, do I look like an old bachelor of all time? I must be. Four failed engagements and two long years of hiatus on women make me look like an old bachelor. I shook my head, imagining my mother's face.It's a reaper. This is Morris's fault. This should be him and not me. Damn, him."Do I look like an old bachelor to you, big Mors?"Kausap ko siya sa kabilang linya at komportable ang pagkakaupo ko sa malambot na sofa. Naka-on ang

Erykah Sunshine."Do you think he'll love this?" I gazed at Samantha, and she nodded weakly."I supposed." She rolled her eyes in dismay, giving me a cold shoulder of disapproval."Come on, Erykah. You are not that stupid, are you? Can't you see that Arnold is just using you?"Napabuntong-hininga siya at hindi maipinta ang mukha habang nakatitig sa akin. Nawala ang ngiti ko sa mukha at nabalot ng kaba ang puso ko.Si Arnold nalang ang natitirang pag-asa. Siya ang buhay ko ngayon at bukas. Mahalaga siya sa akin at umiikot lang ang mundo ko sa kanya."Sam, you should try to open your heart. You will see. . ." Umikot akong saglit at saka tinitigan ang kabuuang hitsura ko sa salamin.Somehow, I felt worried, and the pain kept bothering me."Ugh, kung katulad mo lang magmahal ay hindi na ano! Ayaw kong magpakatanga na tulad mo. I-I mean, there's nothing wrong to fall in love, Erykah, but not to the extend of turning a blind eye to everything," she looked at me, feeling worried too.Hindi

Zebedee Glenn."And now he is threatening you." Morris laughed hard in the line. "I told you, little Zeb. You can't get away with him. But I don't want you to worry. I can manage my business on my own. I can survive." He winked.My jaw tightened as I looked at him.Nakakatawa nga naman ang hitsura niya sa kabilang linya. Iilang kaha ng beer na kaya ang nauubos niya? Mukhang hindi pa rin siya tinatablan ng alcohol."I will see what I can do, big Mors."He laughed and shook his head. "Don't worry. I have other means of finding money. The boys all look good, you know. Enzo's grandfather is out of the country at the moment, and we are operating well."I sighed. My mind is blank at the moment. Iba nga naman kapag si Papa na ang kumilos, pero kung inaakala niya na matatakot niya ako, ay nagkakamali siya, dahil hindi ako takot sa kanya."Worry about yourself, little Zeb, and please take care of Mama.""Can you stop calling me little Zeb, big Mors? I'm no longer a little boy," I chuckled.

Erykah SunshineLast will and testaments.Kung may pinakamasakit na pinagdaanan ang buhay ko ay ito ang ngayon.For the past six weeks, I have felt lost and directionless, longing for my father's presence. Despite my prayers for his healing, it seems that they have gone unanswered by heaven and he quietly passed away. My stepmother, who wanted to rule the business, made her way, and my two stepsisters acted as if they owned the entire place and were unfriendly to me. They seemed to have lost touch. I wasn't there to care for the business because I was with my father the whole time.I'm also tired of asking a question to Arnold about him having an affair with Sarah. I don't want another rejection. The pain I have now is enough for me to stand for a while and I don't want to add more to that.Blanko akong nakatitig sa malaking family picture frame namin sa pribadong library room ng ama ko.Ang bahay na dating puno ng saya at sigla, ay pawang tahimik na. Iba na ang bawat sulok ng palas

Anastacia.Is he engaged? Soon to be married? Huh, good on him!After seven years, I never once checked about him or what's happened lately with the company. I don't want to hear any news from them, especially from him.Naging abala na rin naman ang buhay ko. Mahirap magpalaki ng kambal, at kahit ngayon ay nangangarag pa rin ako.Nawala na sa isip ko si Diezel. Hindi na ako interesado, at wala na akong pakialam kung nag asawa na ba siya o nagkaroon na ng maraming anak. Pero nang marinig ko kanina kay Dianne na engaged na siya ay nababagabag lang ako.Ba't ba ako ganito? Hay, naku, Anastacia!I can’t sleep, and it’s after one o’clock in the morning. I’ve already checked all the items I will deliver tomorrow after dropping the twins at school.Nakatitig na ako sa relo sa dingding habang inom ang chamomile tea. Tulog na ang kambal, pero ako? Heto, hindi man lang dinalaw ng antok.Kinuha ko ang cellphone sa bag at saka nag-search sa app tungkol sa kompanya. Dito tumambad sa akin ang mga

Anastacia.My heart raced when I saw Zev's face. He's got bruises around the right eye like someone had punched him in the face."Anong nangyari sa 'yo? Who did this to you?"Napaluhod ako at ininspeksyon ang mukha niya. Hindi ko sila nasundo ngayon dahil delivery ngayon ng orders ko galing Amerika. Ako mismo ang kumuha ng mga ito sa pantalan. Kaya pansamantala si George ang kumuha sa mga bata."Tinanong ko rin, Ate. Pero ayaw magsalita. Ganyan na ang mukha eh. Gusto ko sanang kausapin ang guro nila, pero wala raw. Kaya umuwi na kami."Bitbit ni George ang bag ng dalawang bata. Inilapag niya ito sa gilid at saka namaywang sa likod ko."Patingin nga. Dios ko…" Tumayo ako at kumuha ng maligamgam na tubig. Pina upo ko si Zev at tahimik siyang nakayuko. Samantalang si Skye ay nasa gilid lang. Nakasandal sa dingding at pinagmamasdan kami."Ano ba ang nangyari, Skye? Who did this to your brother?"Siya na ngayon ang tinanong ko. Alam kong matigas ang ulo ni Zev at madalas ay hindi siya na

New BeginningAnastacia.Note: This is seven years later. The twins are now six years old.Binalot ko ang makapal na jacket sa katawan. Tumigil na ang ulan. Kailangan kong umakyat sa bubong kahit na hindi mabuti ang pakiramdam ko. Wala kong choice at kailangan ko ng gawin ito. Baka kasi mamaya ulit ay uulan na naman. Mas mabuting maagapan ko na ngayon.I need to climb up the roof to check the leak. The rainwater drips in Zev's bedroom. It's not that bad, but it really annoys me every time I hear the drip sound inside his room. It sounds frustrating, and my poor boy can't even complain. It hurts to the bones to see my children struggle along with me.Hindi man nila sinasabi sa akin ito, ay ramdam ko ito bilang isang ina. Naiinis ako at galit ako sa kung ano man ang sitwasyon meron ako ngayon. Wala akong ibang masisisi kung 'di ang sarili mismo."Mama? Aakyat ka?" Celestine Skye looked innocently at me, my sweet, beautiful baby."Yes, Skye. Get back inside. You will get wet, anak."Kin

Anastacia.Mama accepted it without knowing the entire truth about my secret. Only Tessie knows everything, and she promised me that she would never tell anyone about it.Bumalik na si Mama sa probinsya. Marami siyang ginawa para mapagaan ang lahat sa akin dito sa loob ng bahay. Babalik siya sa kabuwanan ko, at mananatili ng iilang linggo.May isang anak si Mama sa bago niya, pero malaki na ito. Nasa high school na si Neri. Mabait na bata at magalang. Malapit siya sa ama niya at nakakaingit ang closeness nila.I have no memories of my father. He left us when I was only five years old. Mama and he were never married. Since then, I haven’t seen him. The last I heard, he was doing well and living in Baguio with his five kids."Okay ka lang ba, Anastacia?"“Oo, okay lang.”Abala kaming pareho ni Kagawad Camilla. Siya ang kasama ko ngayon sa convention ng lungsod. Nasa Cagayan de Oro kami, at dalawang araw kaming mananatili rito dahil sa convention. Parte ito ng bagong proyekto na iniluns

Anastacia."Ano? Dalawang buwan!? Anong klaseng lalaki ba siya? Hindi pwede 'to, Anastacia! Babalik tayo doon. Kakalbuhin ko ang lalaking 'yon!""Ang galing naman niya! Pagkatapos siyang magpakasarap sa 'yo ay ganun na lang ba? Wala lang sa kanya ang lahat? Anong klaseng lalaki ba siya!? Pesti! Halika! Babalik tayo! Bilis!"Hinila niya ang paa ko at pinadyakan ko siya. Bumitaw siya at mabilis kong binalot ang kumot sa katawan. Umiiyak ako. Hindi hihinto ang luha sa mga mata ko dahil nasasaktan ako ngayon. Pinipilit kong magpakatatag, pero bakit ang hirap? Sinusubok ako ng tadhana at pakiramdam ko ay wala na akong pag asa sa lahat.I have no work, and I'm running out of money. What will I do next?"Anastacia…"Ramdam ko ang pag upo ni Tessie sa paanan. Minasahe niya ang paa ko, at tahimik siyang nakikinig sa hikbi ko.Promise, huli na ito. Bukas at sa mga susunod na araw ay ayaw ko ng umiyak. Nakakapagod umiyak. Nakakawalang gana sa buhay. Pero ganito naman talaga 'di ba? Kasalanan ko

Diezel.My eyebrow raised while listening to John. He's got less than twenty seconds before he fuck up. How the hell will he bring an investor to this project if he can't deliver his report properly? He can't even justify some of this. I'm not listening to him while I read his report. It's full of nonsense."Next!""B-But, Sir. I'm not yet done.""You're fired. Next!" I blurted out, fixing them with a hawk-like stare. When I locked eyes with them, they all averted their gaze."Damn it! Wala bang maayos na proposal sa inyong lahat? These reports are all boring! How will you bring a golden egg to the table if all your proposals are as boring and useless as shit!Tumayo ako at saka napabuntonghininga sa sarili. I need some air, or I could end up dismissing the entire team.Lumapit si Joel sa akin at bumulong."Your secretary is on the line. It's important, she said."I rolled my tongue, and Joel handed me the phone."Yes, Sharon?" I raised my eyebrows. "I'm not in a good mood already, S

Anastacia.Bago na ang lahat. Pinalitan niya ang lahat ng staff rito at hindi ko na kilala ang mga ito. Kahit pa ang gwardiya ng gusali ay bago.What the heck? Talaga bang ginawa niya ito dahil ayaw na niya akong makitang muli?Shit.Hindi ko na tuloy alam kung tama pa ba itong ginagawa ko ngayon. Nanginig tuloy ang tuhod ko, at peke akong ngumiti sa babae rito sa front desk. Nasa likod ko naman si Tessie."Yes, Ma'am. How can I help you?" She smiled, but it was obviously a fake smile. She looked at me from head to toe and back again."Uhm, I would like to see Mr. Dennis Ezequil Mondragon?" Kumurap kurap ako. Nilakasan ko na ang loob."Oh? Do you happen to have an appointment with him, Ma'am?""A-Appointment? Wala, Miss."Nawala ang ngiti ko. Inaasahan ko na ito. Kilala ko si Diezel, at kahit noon pa ay hindi siya basta-basta tumatangap ng bisita.Ang buong akala ko ay nandito pa sina Kimmy at Dora. Pero wala na. Ano kaya ang nangyari sa kanila? Nilipat din ba sila ni Diezel?"Sorry
Diego De Luna, Over My Dead Body 16. Fear
Anastacia."Ano!? Buntis ka? At dalawa pa talaga? Shit!"Parang putok ang boses ni Tessie sa tainga ko. Sinabi ko na sa kanya. Wala akong ibang mapagsasabihan at siya lang din."At ano ang plano mo, aber?"Namaywang siya at seryoso akong tinitigan. Umiwas ako at nagpabalik-balik ang lakad ko sa harapan niya."Hindi ko alam. Nalilito ako, Tessie." Kinagat ko na ang pang-ibabang labi."No, Anastacia. I know what you're thinking. Hindi puwede 'to! Kailangan mong sabihin sa kanya! Sasabihin mo at sasamahan kita!"I paused and inhaled deeply."Paano kung ayaw niya? Paano kung ipagtabuyan niya ako, Tessie?"Takot ako, at hindi ako handa kung sakaling magkikita kami ulit. Hindi na kailanman sumagi sa isip ko na makipagkita sa kanya.After he abandoned me, I erased his existence. I hated him so much! I want to forget him. At kung kailan ay okay na ako at handa na ang puso kong makalimot sa lahat, ay saka naman dumating ang problemang ito.Talagang hindi ko na makakalimutan si Diezel dahil bu

Diezel.What are the odds? I'm so effing bored. I raked my hair in exasperation, feeling so frustrated.I'm back here in the business after Italy. I went to Italy to forget Anastacia, but damn it. I couldn't get over with her. I couldn't forget her. Every time I shut my eyes I always see her face, crying, pleading and I feel effing guilty about it.Kung hindi ako pinigilan ni Joel ng gabing iyon, ay tiyak kasama ko na si Anastacia ngayon.I was determined to leave because it was the right thing to do, even if my heart said no. I hesitated and briefly considered going back to Anastacia, but Joel stopped me. He told me there was no hope for me and Anastacia. If I chose her, it would only complicate everything.Damn him! Damn them!They think my life is a game, right? Eff them all.Yes, I have set my goals. I want to build a perfect family with an Italian heritage. That's the ideal gift I could give to my mother and to the whole clan. The Elders are hoping that I will produce an Italian
