Reeve's POV

.

"How do I look?" Jade's eyes beamed while staring at me. She purposely bit her lower lip, trying to seduce me.

"You are beautiful, Jade. And please don't seduce me. You are attractive enough tonight." I winked and touched her nose. She wrinkled her forehead, and I shook my head.

"Ang tigas mo talaga ano? Hindi ka ba talaga maakit sa akin?"

I shook my head and smiled sweetly at her. "I will not. You are my lovely sister, and I want to keep it that way. Don't worry. I will introduce you to someone else tonight."

"Ayaw ko!" She crossed her arms together and pouted.

"I am your partner tonight, Reeve, and I will act like one. So be it!" Umirap siya at lumabas na. Sumunod na ako sa kanya.

It's our deal, and she's happy to take part of this event. Iba sana ang isasama ko. Pero napagtanto ko na tama si Glenn sa payo niya noong nakaraang linggo.

Finding a partner for tonight's event will be easy. I can easily get one. But getting a genuine one where you can act close is difficult

    Melissa's POV.It's been four years since I left the Island. Iba na ang buhay ko sa kung ano man ang buhay ko noon. A lot of things had happened and no matter how much I want to correct things, there is no point anymore.Hinugasan ko ang brushes na gamit ko sa pagpipinta. Napangiti ako, dahil sa ikalawang pagkakataon ay ngayon lang din nangyari na may nagkagusto sa mga likha ko.I was adamant with my talent, and with the help of Frank, I found myself again."Tapos ka na ba? Bilisan mo dahil hinihintay na tayo ni Papa.""Konti na lang. Mga five minutes.""Okay."Binilisan ko na ang kilos ko hanggang sa nailigpit ko ang lahat. Lumabas ako na bitbit ang mga gamit ni Papa at kasama na ang mga gamit ni Madison.Pumasok agad ako ng kotse at mabilis na pinatakbo ni Frank ito. Inayos ko muna ang sarili at saka naglagay ng konting lipstick sa labi. Mabuti na lang at walang traffic masyado ngayon. Mabilis kaming nakarating sa kindergarten ni Madisson. Kailangan muna namin na kunin siya bago kam

    Melissa’s POV . "You behave, okay? Dito ka lang at diyaan lang din si Mommy sa kwarto na iyan." Turo ko sa pribadong kwarto na kaharap lang din ng mesa rito. Hindi kalayuan ito. “Yes, Mommy. You won’t be long, right?” “No, baby. I will meet a client who is so precious to us.” I smiled and brushed his hair using my fingers. “Is that client who bought all your paintings, Mommy?” "Yes, baby. Kaya magpapasalamat lang si Mommy sa kanya. Mabilis lang din dahil sa tingin ko ay abala siya. Hindi rin daw siya puwedeng magtagal dahil marami siyang gagawin. Kaya mabilis lang ito, okay? Dito ka lang at huwag kang aalis, okay?" “Yes, Mommy. I will behave, and I will not go anywhere.” “Good boy. You have your food and your toys here. I will also let you watch your favourite cartoon.” Ini-on ko na ang paboritong cartoon movies ni Madison sa Ipad at tiningnan ko ano pa ang kakailanganin niya. Ngumiti ang isang staff na nasa likod ko nang mailapag niya ang pancakes at ice cream na ini-order ko

    Melissa's POV.My knees are still shaking and I'm trying to control it. Umalis na siya at sa hindi ko maintindihan ay sumang-ayon ako sa gusto niya. Hindi dapat ako sasang-ayon, pero dahil gusto ko siyang makita ulit ay sumang-ayon ako.I just remembered that I am no longer available for him. That I already have a husband and a child… In that span of time with him, I forgot myself because I listened to my heart.He is definitely my Reeve, but he seems to have no recollection of me.Bumalik na yata ang alaala niya, at nakalimutan na niya ang mga tao sa Isla.No one knows what happened to him after that day. Naglaho lang siya na parang bula at hindi na siya mahanap nina Tiya at Manong.I regretted it a lot because it was me who left him."Mommy!"Ang boses ni Madison ang pumukaw sa isip ko at nakangiti siyang tumatakbo palapit sa akin."What happen to you?" Akma akong napaluhod at pinunasan ang mukha niya gamit ang kamay ko. Medyo basa siya."I got wet, Mommy. I didn't mean it. I'm sor

    Melissa's POV . "Thank you so much, Dianne. I couldn't do this alone on my own without your help." "Sino pa ba ang magtutulungan, eh, tayo-tayo lang naman." "Did you have fun, baby?" Inayos ko na ang mga gamit ni Madison at isa-isang niligpit ito. Uuwi na kami dahil tapos na ang lahat. Gabi na rin at pagod ang katawan ko ngayon, dahil sa ginawa ni Frank sa akin. "Yes, Mommy. I made new friends. They even treated me, and I sold my painting." Pinakita niya sa akin ang pera. "This is for you, Mommy. That customer I had was very kind." "Oh my God. Really? You - you paint?" Tingin ko kay Dianne at mahina siyang tumango. "Can I play a little bit more, Mommy, on the swing while you are cleaning my things?" "Sure, baby. Go - on." Tumakbo agad siya at malapit ang naman ito. Sa harapan lang namin ngayon. I looked back at Dianne and she smiled while staring at me. "Pinoy yata iyong lalaki na bumili. Kasama ang alaga siya sa tingin ko. Zio kasi ang tawag. It means uncle" I couldn't be

    Melissa's POV.I only managed to finish less than half. After two hours, I had to excuse myself as I couldn't bear the pain of seeing the two of them together. It was a constant source of agony for me.Alam kong wala akong karapatan na maramdaman ito dahil kasalanan ko naman ang lahat. Ang buong akala ko ay kakayanin ko, pero hindi pala. . . hindi ko pala kaya na makita si Reeve na masaya sa piling ng iba.How could I be so selfish after all? I could no longer give myself back to him as I am now married to Frank. Ano ba ang tumatakbo sa utak ko. Nawala akong saglit at nakalimutan ko ang lahat. Sana nga pala ay hindi ko na tinangap ito. Kasalanan ko rin naman kung bakit. But I can't blame myself. I miss him so badly. "Are you okay, Mel?" si Montreal sa likod ko. Mabilis kung pinunasan ang mukha gamit ang face tissue. Naghilamos ako sa sarili, para mahimasmasan ako."A little bit.""Masama ba ang pakiramdam mo? Gusto mo ba na itigil ang session? Or if you like, I can continue them.

    Reeve's POV . "And she left you again, just like that. Parang inulit niya lang ang ginawa niya sa 'yo, Reeve. Dammit. A woman like her who hides in a thick layer of sheet is hard to understand. You don't know what's going on inside their fucking mind, bro. They will drive you insane." Diego scoffs under his breath before drinking his beer. My hand fisted as I clenched my jaw. I'm such an asshole for inviting her for a coffee. I admit it, I was taken aback earlier, and I want more from her. Ni hindi ko na nga hinatid si Jade at ang driver ko lang ang naghatid sa kanya. I went inside because I wanted to talk to her and have a little time with her, but she left. Just like in the old times. She fucking left me hanging again. "How's Lawrence? And the rest of the gang?" I change the topic. I don't want to hear a single word anymore about Melissa. I had enough of her today. "They're doing great, Reeve." seryosong titig ng mga mata niya, pero may halong mysteryo ito. Napatiim-bagang agad

    Melissa.I was nervous and didn't know how to control myself. It felt like I was dreaming, standing in front of his studio.Hindi ko inakala na may sariling studio penthouse siya at nabibilang ito sa mga sikat at mayayaman na tao. Hindi basta-basta sila nagpapapasok rito. Pero nakasulat ang pangalan ko sa bisita na dadalo ngayon sa kanya, kaya nakapasok din ako.Montreal and Dianne were early this morning. They took Madison with them, and I will pick up the little boy after this appointment.Hindi ko alam kung magtatagal ba ako rito. Pero dahil unang meeting palang naman ito sa pamamahay niya rito, ay tiyak mga discusyon lang din ng mga gusto ni Reeve na ipapagawa sa akin.I plan to scale this project and finish this within a week.Bumukas ang pinto at ang seryosong mukha ni Reeve ang bumati sa akin. Napalunok ako. Amoy ko kasi ang pabango niya at parang dumikit ang paa ko sa sahig nang maalala ko na ito ang uri ng pabango na unang binigay ko sa kanya.This is a cheap type men's colo

    Melissa."That's insane, Mel—my God. I don't know what to say. Hindi ko alam na ganito pala ang nangyari sa 'yo sa Pilipinas. You didn't tell me, Mel? You should have told me what happened to you back then."She sits across from me after giving me a cup of coffee. Dianne is a childhood friend of mine. She witnessed what my life had become after my mother passed away. Dianne was the only friend who was there for me.Masyadong magulo ang buhay ko at isama mo pa ang magulong mundo rin ng mga magulang ko.When I finished my Art school in Washington, I stayed with my mother in Texas.

    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

    Brielle.The air crackles between us. It's intense, hot, and demanding.Sa totoo lang, simula nang maibigay ko ang sarili ko kay Morris ay nakalimutan ko na ang lahat ng pait at masasamang ala-ala na pinagdaanan ko.I'm not a virgin to this, and I'm not a prostitute either. However, I am close to that because of my job, as I used to tame dangerous people, and when they got drunk and naked in front of me, a killer who was on standby would take over the job and kill them.That wasn't a bad job, and I earn a lot of money from it. Hindi man kalakihan ang pera na kinikita ko noon, ay iyon lang din naman ang nakikita kong paraan para makapag-ipon at nang sa ganun ay makatakas kami ni tiya sa imperyno.There was no escape, honestly, in that hell as they held me by the neck. I thought I could easily escape that hell, but I was wrong. But luck was on my side, and here I am with tiya, living on this remote Island.Walang nakakakilala sa amin at walang maghahanap sa amin dito.I bite my lower l

    Morris."And what are you planning, Morris? Are you sure you are going to be okay on your own?"I scoffed and shook my head in disgust. Does he really think I can't do it alone?"Do you want me to cut off your head, Dez?" I scowl."Yeah, yeah, I know, bro. I'm just worried." He chuckled."Don't be worried. You don't know what you're dealing with, Dez. Worry about yourself. You are about to enter your world now, and you will be forbidden from seeing us for a while. Can you handle that?" I smirked."Oh well, I have no choice. I can handle it, Mors. I'm a big boy you know. Limang taon lang naman ang kailangan nila sa akin, at bibilisan ko ito. Sisiguraduhin ko na sa loob ng tatlong taon o dalawa ay makukuha ko na ang market target, at isa na ako sa pinakamayaman tao sa buong mundo. Fuck." Malutong na mura niya at natawa akong bahagya."I know you can do it, Dez. I will wait for you after five years, okay? Suit yourself to everything, and you know where I am. I am a phone call away.

    Brielle.Nakakapagod. Balot sa pawis ang boung katawan ko at hindi ko alam kung nasaan ako ngayon. Ramdam ko ang sakit sa paa at balot ito ng dugo at putik. Mabilis kong pinunasan ang luha at saka matapang na inayos ang damit ko.Tapos na akong umiyak, at ubos na yata ang luha ko. At kahit pa iiyak ako ng dugo ay hindi maawa sa akin ang mga iyon. Mga hayop sila! Wala silang awa!Hindi ko naramdaman na pumutak ang katiting na luha sa pisngi at mabilis kong pinunasan ito. Kinagata ko ang labi at namuo ang galit sa loob ko.Babalikan ko si tiya. Babalikan ko siya.***"Bree, baby. . ." Ang mainit na dampi na halik ni Morris sa tainga ko ang nagpamulat ng mga mata ko ngayon. Nanaginip na naman ako, pero iba ito at hindi kagaya nang mga nakaraang panaginip ko.Humikab ako at ramdam ko ang konting kirot sa hita. Napa-ungol ako nang maramdaman ko ang kamay ni Morris sa bahaging ito."I'm sorry, I made you tired, baby, and I know you want to sleep more. But we have to go." He rested his face
