EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE ONE
“Yes, Mom. She said that all the things needed for the wedding tomorrow are all organized,” saad ni Zaeia sa telepono. Kausap niya ngayon ang kanyang ina na tuwang-tuwa dahil ikakasal na ang kanyang bunsong anak. Ganoon din naman ang nararamdaman ni Zaeia. Zaeia is getting married with Adonis, her long-time boyfriend at anak ng kaibigan ng kanyang mga magulang. She's absolutely thrilled because her dream fairytale is about to come true. “Sige, anak. Alam kong excited ka kaya’t sleep na at maaga pa ang preparation natin for tomorrow!” masiglang sabi ng kanyang ina sa telepono ngunit hindi nakasagot si Zaeia. Nagulantang siya sa kanyang nakita pagpasok niya ng kanilang mansyon. Tila pinasok ng isang magnanakaw ang kanilang tahanan dahil sa napaka gulong ayos ng mga gamit. Mayroon pang mga damit ang nagkalat sa sahig. Ngunit iba ang kanyang kutob. Hindi ito pinasok ng mga magnanakaw ngunit ng mga hayok sa laman. “Mom, c-come here,” pagtangis niya. Tumakbo si Zaeia paakyat sa kanila
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE TWO
Hindi alam ni Zaeia ang nangyari sa kanya. Napakasakit ng kanyang ulo nang siya'y magising. Nararamdaman niya ang pananakit ng kanyang buong katawan na parang nakipag-wrestling siya sa isang professional wrestler.Natatakpan ang kanyang katawan ng isang puting kumot. Napaupo siya agad at nagulat nang mapansing mayroong siyang katabing lalaki.Nanglaki ang kanyang mga mata at napasigaw upang magising si Duke mula sa mahimbing nitong pagkakatulog."What's wrong? Why are you shouting? Masakit ang ulo ko!" reklamo ni Duke nang siya’y naalimpungatan sa sigaw ng dalaga.Hindi alam ni Zaeia ang gagawin. Tila ba nais niyang hampasin si Duke nang pinagtagpi-tagpi niya ang lahat."Ikaw! Anong nangyari?" tanong ni Zaeia. Pilit niyang inaagaw ang kumot upang makakilos siya."Stop it! Gusto mo ba na makita ulit 'to?" natatawang sabi ni Duke."Stop laughing! Pinilit mo ako na makipagtalik sa iyo!" paratang ni Zaeia kay Duke.Naging seryoso naman ang mukha ni Duke sa paratang ni Zaeia."Alam mo na h
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE THREE
“So, you’re pregnant?” usisa ni Elisha. Elisha and Zaeia had been great friends for a long time, having attended the same high school and college. Halos lahat ng sikreto ni Zaeia ay alam niya. A week after Zaeia's horrific experiences, the two of them traveled to America together. She desired to contemplate, clear her mind, and live in a peaceful atmosphere free of negativity and far away from those who had harmed her. She wants to begin a new chapter in her life. A new her, apart from what others have perceived her to be. “I'm unsure. I haven't taken a pregnancy test yet,” sagot ni Zaeia. Kalmado lamang siya ngunit ang totoo ay natatakot siya. Natatakot siya para sa responsibilidad niya bilang isang ina at ang magiging reaksyon ng kanyang mga magulang kung sakali. Napabuntong-hininga na lamang si Elisha dahil sa ginawa ni Zaeia. “Ano ang plano mo dito sa Amerika? Mag-isa ka lang if ever. Uuwi na rin ako ng Pinas after three days,” nag-aalalang tanong niya sa kanyang kaibigan.
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE FOUR
Hindi alam ni Zaeia kung ano ba ang dapat niyang maramdaman. Baby is a blessing pero ngayon na mag-isa lang siya ay makakaya niya ba? She promises to seek revenge on her sister, but how will she do so while carrying a kid in her womb? Her parents' first affection was for her; it was just her sister who kept interrupting and ruining things. She wants to raise her child in a loving environment. She doesn't want her child to have to go through what she did. Her wish is for her child to live a happy life. Napahawak siya sa kanyang puson habang umiiyak. Pinigilan niya ang sarili na umiyak dahil sa pagkakaalam niya ay bawal sa buntis ang umiyak o ma-stress. ‘Sorry baby, mommy will stop crying!’ She let out a sigh and slipped the pregnancy test into her pocket. Napaisip siya kung sasabihin niya ba kay Duke na buntis siya ngunit sa huli, naalala niya ang pangako niya sa lalaki. Sinabi niya dito na hindi niya ito hahabulin kahit buntis siya. And for her, Duke isn't ready yet to have a ba
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE FIVE
Zaeia's twins had grown up so wonderfully in two years after 9 months of carrying them in her womb. Lumaki silang matalino at puno ng pagmamahal. Lahat ng atensyon ni Zaeia ay ibinibigay sa kanila. Hinding-hindi gugustuhin ni Zaeia na maranasan ng kanyang mga anak ang paboritismo na kanyang naranasan noon. She adores each of them equally. Ang kanyang kambal na anak ay isang babae at lalaki. Magkasalungat ang ugali ng dalawa ngunit pareho nilang mahal ang isa’t-isa lalo na ang kanilang ina. “Chocho, get up! Mom said that we would be heading to the bookshop to purchase new books and other stuff.” Chacha kicked Chocho's ass up to wake him up as she walked past his bed. As a result, they began battling on the ground. They're kids anyway, and their favorite game is physical fighting. Napahinto na lamang sila nang kumatok sa kanilang pintuan ang kanilang ina na hindi maipinta ang mukha. “Do both of you want to just stay here and read the same books, or do you want to stop arguing so we
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE SIX
In the end, Zaeia agreed to celebrate her children's birthday in the Philippines. Hindi pa siya handang bumalik pero mukhang kahit anong usap niya sa mga anak ay hindi pa rin niya ito mapapapayag. Her kids are smart. Daig pa nila ang nakikipag-usap sa kasing edaran niya. She's thankful that her children were both smart, there's a small chance na makuha nila ang katangahan ni Kara. "Mommy, we're so excited! I'm done arranging my clothes," Chacha said to her. Zaeia stroked her hair and rubbed her temples. She considers herself to have been duped. Her children had duped her into agreeing! "Well done. What about your brother?" tanong niya sa kanyang anal. Chacha shrugged her shoulders like she doesn't care about her brother at all. "Where is he?" Zaeia asked her daughter again. "He's using his computer again." Chacha answered her. "Alright, I will pack his clothes." She said but her daughter rolled her eyes. "Mommy, don't you dare! We aren't babies anymore! I'll talk to my brothe
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE SEVEN
“Zaeia!” sigaw ni Lucas ng kunwaring nilubog ni Chocho ang kanyang ulo sa dagat habang sila’y naliligo. Napatawa na lamang si Zaeia dahil sa kakulitan ng dalawa. Samantalang si Chacha naman ay kumakain lang ng strawberries sa kanyang tabi matapos nitong maligo. Tumayo si Zaeia at sinalubong ang kanyang anak ng isang tuwalya. Napaismid naman sa kanya si Lucas dahil hindi man lang siya binigyan ni Zaeia ng tuwalya. ‘Isip bata.’ “Let’s go back to our room na. Gabi na at sisinipunin kayo kung mag-swimming pa kayo. Bukas naman.” “Okay, mommy!” sabay na wika ng kambal. Bumalik na sila sa hotel na kanilang tinutuluyan. Ngayong araw ay ang kaarawan ng kambal. Hindi na nila hiniling pa ng magarbong selebrasyon. Mas pinili na lamang nilang i-enjoy ang kulay asul na dagat. Pagkabukas ng elevator ay bumungad sa kanila sina Elisha at Duke. Nagtungo ang tingin ni Zaeia sa kanilang mga kamay na magkahawak. Mas lalo pa itong hinigpitan ni Elisha nang mapansin na nakatingin rito ang kaibigan. La
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE EIGHT
Zaeia sighed when she saw her twins walking towards her. Hindi niya alam ang gagawin dahil halos hindi siya nakatulog sa mga rebelasyon na nalaman niya. She loved Elisha and treated her as her own sister but she still chose to betray her. Her eyes lacked emotions. "Mommy, what are you thinking?" Chacha asked her. She looked at her children with love and compassion. "Mommy, are you stressed? Maybe, you didn't like to celebrate our birthday here in the Philippines." Chacha sounds sad. Chocho hugged his twin sister. "Twin, mommy needs rest. Maybe she needs beauty time?" Chocho whispered to his twin. Chacha giggled. "We will go home. Did you two enjoy your day?" tanong ni Zaeia sa kanyang mga anak. Nakita niya na bitbit ng dalawa ang mga gamit nito. Napakunot ang kanyang noo ng makita na wala si Lucas sa likod ng mga bata. "Where's your uncle Lucas?" tanong ni Zaeia sa kambal. Her twin smirked. Tumingin siya sa paligid at nakita niya si Duke at ang ahas na kaibigan niya na naglalaka

Percival glanced at the pictures that Elisha tore apart. He was concerned that Elisha would get a lot of stress because of Duke's actions. He wanted to ask him but he didn't have the right to."You should relax yourself, Elisha. Think about your baby," Percival said, making Elisha comforted a little bit.Percival wanted to pull his hair in frustration. He didn't even know why he was caring for Elisha."You should ask him first, don't assume that he's doing something nasty behind your back," Percival wanted to praise himself. He's not a saint, he wanted to grab this opportunity but he couldn't. He can't reveal his intention because he is scared that Elisha will avoid him.‘Oh, I wanted to build a f*cking statue for me. I'm not a saint after all,’ Percival said to himself."This is Zaeia’s revenge on me! I know she was mad at me after taking Duke away from her!" Elisha gritted her teeth. She was mad at her friend, does Zaeia know how she feels guilty whenever she sees her! Does Zaeia th

"Cut!" The director shouted. He was amazed by their acting, it feels too real. "Wow! Bravo. I like how you both acted, parang totoo na naglalaban kayo," puri ng direktor. He was in awe of Zaeia, who was pulled behind the car by a man as she was busy typing on her phone. Duke covered Zaeia's lips while she shouted as if there were no tomorrow, which helped her realize that he was not a kidnapper. She exhaled deeply. “Anong ginagawa mo rito?!” sigaw ni Zaeia. Hindi siya makaisip ng dahilan kung bakit naisipan ni Duke na sundan siya sa set gayon pa’t buntis ang asawa nito. Napakaraming tao at kamera ang nakapalibot sa lugar kaya’t hindi mapakali si Zaeia dahil baka ito’y magkaroon na naman ng isang isyu. Duke leaned on her and whispered, “Wala lang. Uh, napadaan lang,” wika niya at napakamot sa kanyang batok. Kumaripas ng takbo si Zaeia patungo sa direktor nang siya’y tawagin nito. Marahil ay mayroon pa silang kinakailangan tapusin. Napapansin ni Duke na siya ang pinag-uusapan nila

“Ano sa tingin mo ang sasabihin ni dad sa ‘tin?” tanong ni Zaeia sa kanyang kapatid na si Kara. Kasalukuyan silang nakatayo sa labas ng opisina ng kanilang ama. Hindi nila malaman kung sino ang dapat unang pumasok sa loob. Mayroon daw importanteng sasabihin si Alfonso sa kanilang dalawa ngunit ang kanilang ipinagtataka ay bakit silang dalawa lamang? Dapat kung mayroong magandang balita sa kumpanya ay dapat magpatawag ito ng pagpupulong kasama ang ibang miyembro ng board. “I don’t know. Maybe he needs to fire you?” wika ni Kara habang nakangisi na nagpakulong muli ng dugo ni Zaeia. Kahit pa anong pilit nyang makipag-usap nang mahinahon sa kanyang kapatid ay puno ng hinanakit at selos ang sagot nito.Ngayon pa’t hawak nilang dalawa ang mga matataas na posisyon sa kompanya ay kinakailangan nila ng kooperasyon ngunit mukhang malabong mangyari ito. Halos ang trabaho ni Kara ay si Zaeia na ang gumagawa dahil sa inis niya rito at hindi niya gugustuhing makita ang kanyang pagmumukha upang m

Mabilis na na-discharge si Zaeia dahil nagpupumilit ito kahit ayaw ni Lucas at Chocho. "Mom, stop it, we should stay here in the hospital!" Chocho exclaimed. He was afraid that maybe Zaeia had a serious injury. "Yeah, Chocho is right!" sang-ayon agad ni Lucas. Napabuntong-hininga na lamang si Zaeia sa dalawang lalaki na sa kanyang harapan. Kailangan niyang malaman ang nangyayari sa kompanya ngayon dahil wala siyang tiwala sa kanyang kapatid. "You two, shut up, I'm alright. I need to go to the company," Zaeia reasoned but Chocho's eyes were bloodshot. "No! I want the doctor to take you for a test, what if you have a serious injury? What about your head?" Chocho said again. Lucas was amazed and he wanted to salute the little boy. Ang talino nito at mabuti na lamang ay hindi niya ito naging kaklase. He feels proud of Chocho. "Oh, stop being a brat, Chocho, or else. You'll be grounded, no computer or no use of your tablet or even your books," Zaeia acted like she was serious about
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE FIFTEEN
Elisha feels sad after he sees the emotion in Duke's eyes. Emosyonal siya dahil buntis siya at hindi nakakatulong ang nalaman niya sa kanyang sitwasyon. "Why did you kiss her?" Elisha asked him. Huminga ng malalim si Duke. Oo, nagpadala siya sa bugso ng kanyang damdamin. "Elisha please don't ask me that question," nakokonsensyang sabi ni Duke. After all, they're married and what he did was a sin.Nakalabas sila sa hospital at pumunta agad sa parking lot. Pumasok agad si Elisha sa kotse ng akmang pagbubuksan siya ni Duke ng pinto. Nagdesisyon na lamang ito na pumasok na rin sa kotse. Elisha's face was dark but her eyes were full of sadness. Nakokonsensya na siya sa nagawa niya kay Zaeia tapos nalaman pa niya ang ginawa ng kanyang asawa ngayon. "Ayaw mo akong magtanong pero bakit ginawa mo? Duke, alam ko na nagpakasal lamang tayo dahil sa negosyo pero sana irespeto mo ako, pati ang magiging anak natin," masakit sa loob na sabi ni Elisha. She stopped her tears. Unti-unti na siyang na

Duke decided to follow Zaeia as he witnessed how Zaeia got hit by a post. He was in fear thinking about Zaeia's condition. He went out to his car and ran to save Zaeia. He saw Zaeia was unconscious and bleeding. "Zaeia!" he shouted his name. Seeing Zaeia in her state makes him tremble in fear. "Fuck! No, Zaeia please," he wanted to cry but he couldn't. He needs to save Zaeia first, mabilis niyang sinuntok ang bintana malapit sa driver seat at chineck ang kanyang pulso. "Come on, Zaeia! Wake up," maamong sabi niya. Nagising si Zaeia na nasa hospital na siya. Her head was hurting. "Why am I here?" tanong niya sa kanyang sarili. Bigla niyang naalala na ang pagputok ng baril at nang mabangga siya sa isang poste. "Elisha," galit na sambit niya sa pangalan ng kanyang kaibigan. She was sure it's all Elisha's fault. That time before she heard the gunshot, Elisha texted her, thinking it's Elisha's warning. "Ibang klase ka talaga, gusto mo na talaga akong mamatay," gigil na sambit niy
EX-LOVERS' MISTAKE THIRTEEN
Naghahanda na si Zaeia upang umuwi dahil madilim na ang gabi. Siguradong magtataka si Lucas at ang kanyang ina kung bakit natagalan siya sa pag uwi.Isang kamay ang sapilitang iniharap siya sa kanya na walang iba kundi si Ada.“That wasn't even an act. I almost drowned, bitch!” sigaw nito. Pakiramdam ni Zaeia na totoong nangyari ang mga bagay na nakalagay sa script kaya’t halos makatotohanan ang kanyang nagawa.“Well, I’m sorry,” sarkastiko niyang tugo at nagpatuloy sa kanyang ginagawa.“Anong kailangan mo, Zaeia? I’m living the best of my life. Kung tungkol sa organisasyon ang dahilan ng pagpapakita mo uli sa ‘kin, pwes hinding hindi na ako babalik.” Isinuot ni Zaeia muli ang kanyang jacket at naglakad papalayo. Ngunit huminto siya matapos makalabas ng tent at lumingong muli kay Ada.“Well, good luck to you.” At naglakad patungo sa kanyang sasakyan. Nakasalubong niya ang manager ni Ada at inabot ng sikreto ang tseke na naglalaman ng tatlong milyong pesos.“Do your job smoothly.” Tuma

“You will need surgery. We can use the total removal procedure but there's a good chance your eyesight will be damaged,” Lucas remarked while pointing out the tumor on the patient's MRI on his monitor.He's been a competent neurosurgeon for a long time, and people look up to him since he's one of the best. He has dealt with a variety of patients during his career, but it was his late mother who inspired him to become a surgeon. Despite the fact that he was unable to save her, he wishes to use his abilities to help others.It's terrifying to have to operate on people, knowing that one wrong move can ruin everything; specifically, Lucas is working with the brain, spine, and other nervous system components.The surgery is scheduled following their conversation. He tried to call Zaeia to see how the twins were doing, but she didn't answer.Lucas knows very little about Zaeia's life and what she is up to. He was only aware of what occurred between her and Duke. Despite the fact that he doe

Nakatulala lamang si Duke habang hinihintay si Elisha na lumabas. Napabuntong-hininga siya. Sigurado siya na siya ang ama ng kambal ngunit parating kinakaila ni Zaeia ang lahat.'Come on, man! The agreement will be void if you keep doing this,' Duke told himself. Iritable siyang napasabunot sa kanyang noo saka napalingon ng makita si Elisha na naglalakad papunta sa kanya. He secretly gulped. It's his fault, buntis na si Elisha ano pa nga ba ang magagawa niya?"What are you doing?" tanong ni Elisha kay Duke ng makita niya na sinasabunutan nito ang sarili."Nothing," sagot ni Duke. Mabilis itong pumasok sa kanyang sasakyan na pinagtaka ni Elisha. Pumasok na rin si Elisha habang inoobserbahan si Duke."What's wrong with you? Dahil na naman ba ‘to kay Zaeia?" tanong ni Elisha.Napakapit naman ng mahigpit si Duke sa mismong manibela."H-Hindi, may iniisip lang ako na proposal sa mga investor," dahilan niya kay Elisha. Elisha nodded her head and looked out the window. She keeps thinking Z
