.

"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.

    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.

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.

    Erykah Sunshine.Hindi mapigilan ni Samantha ang tawa niya sa bandang gilid habang binabasa ang kopya ng huling testamento ni Papa.Philip and I are in a deep conversation regarding the assets I now have in my name. They are the ones from my deceased mother.Agad kong nakuha ang lehitimong pagmamay-ari nito, dahil ako lang naman ang anak nila ni Papa at wala ng iba. Pero ang pamana ko na galing kay Papa ay on hold pa."My goodness, I can't understand why you had to do it this way, Erykah. You honestly created your own grave of mistakes when it comes to this. I can't help but laugh. And take note, ang cute ng pemanship mo noong bata ka pa." Lakas na tawa niya.Ngumuso ako at nilingon siya. Nahinto si Philip at sabay naming tinitigan si Samantha ngayon. Hindi pa rin siya nahinto at tawang-tawa parin sa sitwasyon ko.I sighed, feeling shit because of that. I couldn't blame my younger self at that time. That's what I wanted, and that proves that I collaborated with my parents for that in

    Anastacia.Abala ang isang linggo ko sa preperasyon ng nalalapit na event sa kompanya. Sa susunod na linggo na ito magaganap, at ito na rin ang panghuling araw ko rito.I dressed up casually the way I wanted now. And as always, I get to work as possible for the transfer and training. Napapansin ko na rin na hindi na naghuhubad si Diezel at pormal na siya manamit.Simula nang gabing iyon, pagkatapos sa rest house niya ay nag iba na siya ng ugali. Hindi na siya ngumingiti. Wala na ang dating mood niya tuwing umaga na kumukanta. Hindi na niya ako binabata, at palagi siyang wala dahil abala na sa mga meeting sa labas.Hindi na rin siya natutulog rito sa opisina niya, at napansin ko rin na wala na ang mga gamit niya sa loob. Wala na ang mga personal na gamit niya, at isa lang ang ibig sabihin nito. Hindi na siya kailanman matutulog sa opisina.The changes made me sad for a reason, but then again, they also provided me with some breathing room. At least he will no longer spend the night he

    Anastacia's POVCannot.Bumagsak ang panga ko nang makalabas ng kotse. Nasa rest house niya kami. Medyo malayo nga naman ito sa syudad. Kulang kulang nasa tatlong oras.I was hungry back then, but I sleep from it. Natulog ako at hinayaan na si Diezel, at nagising na lang nang maramdaman ko na hindi na gumagalaw ang sasakyan.Wala siya sa loob ng sasakyan ng magising ako. Kaya heto, bumaba na ako para hanapin siya.Ito ang pangalawang pagkakataon na napadpad ako rito sa rest house niya. Ang una ay noong ipinagawa niya ito. Hindi pa iyon tapos, pero ngayon? Nakamamangha na ang hitsura ng rest house villa niya.I walked closer to see the ocean. Diezel's magnificent yacht is a beauty. The long pole it has holds beautiful sparks of rainbow lights. My lips pursed, and my heart began to feel the warmth. Sa tagal ko na siyang kilala ay alam ko na ang lahat tungkol sa buhay niya. Kahit pa siguro kulay ng brief niya, ay alam ko!I'm not just a mere secretary working under him because I'm obse

    Anastacia.Akala niya siguro ay babae ang ipapalit ko sa pwesto ko? Huh, nagkakamali siya!I had enough of all the girls he dated. At kung babaeng sekretarya ang ipapalit ko ay tiyak magpapa-fiesta lang si Diezel dahil ilalantad lang din niya ulit ang kalahating hubad niyang katawan!Akala mo naman kung sinong perpekto Adonis!Oo, perpekto na, okay? May ibubuga naman ang katawan niya at hindi ako magsisinungaling na pinapantasya ko ito. Walang araw na hindi ko inisip kung ano ba ang pakiramdam kapag nahawakan ko ito ng totoo.I can't deny the fact that he can easily melt me and make me wet myself. It's always his fault why I have to pack three panties every day!Nababasa ako at madalas akong nagpapalit dahil sa kanya. I wear panty liners, but I hate the feeling of it when I'm actually wet! It's uncomfortable."Gaga ka rin ano?" Mabilis na ininom ni Tin ang tubig. Kabado siya at mukhang susunod na yatang siyang mag-resign pagkatapos ko."Ba't ako, Tacia? Dios ko naman, gurl! Mamamatay

    Diezel.Ask.I kept pacing back and forth.She's not here yet. What is happening? Why the hell is she late today? Is she applying for a job at the other companies? Damn this.I paused, taking a deep breath to calm myself, but my temper refused to settle down. I had a lot on my mind, and it was driving me crazy.Maaga pa naman, pero pinagpapawisan na ako. I arrived early today, and it was still dark when I got to the office. I didn't sleep here last night because I stayed at Reeve's place. I need to calm down a bit so I can think more clearly."Is she not yet here, Tin?" My brows latch as I look at him."W-Wala pa, Sir…" His lips quivered.Damn again!I glanced at the others, who were rattling in their seats. I slammed the door of my office and paced again.I'm feeling edgy, like my skin is itching for something, and I can't take it.Tatawagan ko na sana siya, pero biglang bumukas ang pinto at ang mukha niya agad ang nakita ko."Good morning, Sir Dennis Ezequil!" She widely smiled as

    Diezel's POV.I can still feel my blood. It's boiling to the point of no regrets. Damn this! Why am I feeling this way? It's better for her to go. I should let her go, but why the hell I can't accept it?"What the hell, Dez? Slow down, gorilla. Plano mo bang ubusin ang dalawang kahon ng beer?" Reeve chuckled. He grabs one beer from the ice chest and drinks it."Woah, that tastes good. Thank you." He sat down beside me as he wiped the sweat on his forehead.Kanina pa siya abala sa ginagawa at hinayaan ko lang na matapos siya, dahil ayaw ko siyang ma-esturbo. Tinatapos niya ang treehouse sa bahay bakasyonan nila rito. Medyo malayo ito sa syudad, at dalawang oras ang maneho. But its all worth it. The place is quite, covered in thick green and there's no neighbors around, because Reeve owns half of the mountain.Melissa is heavily pregnant. After trying for so long, finally, after seven years, the two will soon have a little bundle of joy.And how lucky is that? They're expecting to have

    Anastacia.Tame."You're kidding, right?" He smug, not believing in what I just said."No. I'm not, Sir!"He smirks and shakes his head."Okay, I understand. How much do you want? Would another ten percent increase in your salary work?"Namilog ang mga mata ko.Noon pa man, sa tuwing gusto kong mag resign ay hindi siya pumapayag, at tinataasan ang sweldo ko. At ako naman na tanga, ay walang nagawa. Inisip ko rin na malaki-laki rin ang sweldo, kaya hindi na ako nagpatuloy. Pero iba na ngayon! Iba na ito!"No, Sir…" Napailing ako."Hindi ko na po tatangapin ang increase sa salary. Malaki na po ang naitulong ninyo sa akin noon, at—""Okay, twenty percent increase, Tacia," he looked at me desperately.Bumagsak lang ulit ang panga ko at hindi na ako makapag salita.Bahagya siyang umayos at saka tumingala sa kisame."You are driving me crazy. So, this is what you want, right? A twenty percent increase? Okay! That's fine with me, Tacia. I can give you that," he smiles proudly as he convinc

    Anastacia.Resign.With a heavy heart, I rolled up my last document with him and inserted my resignation letter.Matagal ko na itong pinag-isipan. Tama na ang limang taon ko sa kompanyang ito. Nakaipon na ako ng pera at bibilhin ko na ang dream house na gusto ko.I want to live in the countryside, where birds chirp freely, and the breeze is fresh and pleasant. I am tired of city life and want to settle down in the countryside, away from the hustle and bustle.May nakita na akong property na nagustuhan ko sa Bukidnon. Walang kapit-bahay iyon at medyo okay lang ang laki ng lupa. May konting ilog sa gilid, at may iilang puno sa paligid. May harden din ito.Gusto kong mag tanim ng sarili kong gulay at prutas. Gusto kong mamuhay ng tahimik at walang gulo. Gusto kong manatili sa isang lugar na walang nakakakilala sa akin. Gusto ko ang simpling buhay...Gusto ko na maging masaya na ako.Ang bahay na iyon ay medyo may kalumaan na, pero nakatayo paring matibay. Dalawang palapag iyon at sakto
