Business as usual. The whole cliché that giant businesses instill in the minds of its constituents. But like the business industry, business as usual also happens in real life.

"Team, our current standing is not what I would call as ideal. Were at the bottom three out of fifteen teams in this account. I know you may think that this is not important but there's a lot at stake. If we manage to raise our scores, we'll have the ability to choose the schedules we prefer the moment that we bid for shifts. You'd have the best option for day-offs. There's also an incentive scheme for the team with the highest attained scores for this month. Some cash we can use for team buildings and all that. If you are interested, I can definitely help you where you need to be."

Joanne raised her hand.

"Yes." Sari looked at her, in her poker face.

"TL, what do we do to achieve those scores?"

"Well, there are five different KPI's you all need to pass. Attendance, surveys, adjustments, repeat calls and of co

    Why do people look up to the ceiling when they're tired, bored or regretting?Sa kisame ba nahahanap ang sagot sa lahat ng katanungan mo?I am literally staring at the ceiling while Joanne is sound asleep. Her legs wrapped around my hips.The reality of it all started crashing on me. I had sex with someone I didn't really had any intentions of doing it with.I swiftly got out of the bed and silently put on my boxers and my shirt. I didn't even bother putting on my pants. Its my house anyway.I took the time to drag my feet into the living room and took a jug of water. Tila uhaw na uhaw kong tinungga ang kalahati nga laman nito. Halos isang litrong container din 'yun.I leaned on the countertop and cursed at myself.Why did I do this?Maya-maya lang ay narinig ko ang pag-ring ng doorbell.I silently opened the door, still thinking of what just happened.Pagbukas ko ay bumungad ang mukha ni Jeremiah na may bitbit na plastic bags. I assumed they were alcohol."Dude!"Not too far from the

    The consequences of stupidity is often instantaneous. And often times, these consequences determine how much of an asshole you really are. "Hey, thank you for waiting." Joanne's eyes would lit up like stars every time she sees me. Its been a month now na halos madalas na kaming magkasama ni Joanne. Some people in the office think that we're an item. I didn't want to disappoint her so I chose to ride with it. Sari has not talked to me nor has she reached out. Simply put, that night might have just been the end of it. "Austin?" malambing niyang sinambit ang pangalan ko. "Yes?" Bigla ay nagbago ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya. She bowed her head down and played with her fingers before she looked up at me again. "Wag na lang. Ihatid mo nalang ako pauwi."Then I realized I must have looked angry again. Travis has told me this before. Tila daw pasan ko ang mundo ever since I haven't talked with Sari. "I'm sorry. I'm just too stressed out lately." "It's okay. I understand. Iuwi mo

    Moments that excite you makes you think of nothing else except for you and the ones involved during that moment. This is a hundred percent true and often, would mean stepping on other people's toe. "Ahhhhh." I could hear her moaning against the pillow she covered over her face. There I was, making her feel good, giving her the best that I can, bowing my head, kneeling in front of her, giving her my tongue's best moves.She has to be careful. She can't scream out loud, or else people will start listening.I kissed her supple legs and let my kiss travel back to her torso, letting my tongue linger through her skin, never caring if her juice is sticking on every trail I made.I stayed on her nipples, sucking it like there's no tomorrow.Her back arched as I sucked harder.She felt so delicious against my lips. I covered her mouth with my hands as soon as her moan elevated.She removed my hand and instead suck two of my fingers, tasting them like they were strawberry-flavored lollipops.I

    "Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect, he ceases to love."At 7 AM, I managed to get up of bed and face my team mates. The moment I got into the table for breakfast, everybody was clapping their hands like I was the winner of some lottery. But I know what they are clapping about. I sat beside Joanne who was smiling the moment she saw me. Beside her was a plate that's already full of food. I took the liberty of sitting down beside her. She beamed a smile at me to which I responded with a slight grin. Across her was of course Sari. Na tila ba, sinasadya nitong sa tapat namin mismo maupo. "San ka nga pala natulog kagabi?" Joanne whispered to me just as we were already starting to eat. "I slept in Jeremiah's room. Tumakas na ako pagkatapos ng seven minutes na yun. Medyo nahilo

    Sadness is but a wall between two gardens.The abyss of pleasure is one that no one can ever say no to. It no different with Sari. Every single moment we shared is tattooed in my mind and makes me count an endless number of sheep every night. Especially on the ones that she's not with me. Bumalik kami sa dating gawi. The usual text me or chat me relationship when I need you. That afternoon, I was sitting in my couch with her tangled against my legs while we were watching this movie called No Strings Attached. A very shallow definition of what we have. And all throughout, we were laughing at some of the scenes from this movie. Not because we could relate to it but because it was just plain funny. For some reason, she stayed in today, I had to turn my phone off so no one would get to disturb us. It won't happen all the time. So we has an agreement to put our phones off. I grabbed another set of beer as she sift through another set of movies. And Ironic as it is, she chose Friends

Everyone has to face it ultimately. Anyone can try and not take it in. But sooner or later, everyone has to go through it. "I just learned that she was pregnant Austin.""What?" "Pero alam kong hindi ikaw ang ama. If there's one thing Joanne never shy away from, its honesty. She tells me everything.""So are you saying its someone else?"She meekly smiled. Pain is all over her face. They have just embalmed Joanne and now, she's about to be sent over to the place where her wake will be held. "I have to go take care of the rest of things for her wake.

    Sari stepped into the Philippine airport, her return marked by a mix of emotions. The familiar sights and sounds of her home country surrounded her, triggering memories of the life she left behind two years ago. As she navigated through the bustling terminal, she couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia and anticipation. The air was filled with a medley of languages, the hustle of travelers, and the distinct aroma of Filipino delicacies. It was a stark contrast to the various places she had explored during her global journey. The airport echoed with the voices of families reuniting, friends sharing laughter, and the occasional strains of a local song playing in the background. Sari's heart fluttered with a blend of excitement and apprehension as she thought about the people she had missed and the changes that might have occurred in her absence. She recalled the promise she made to Austin, the box he handed her before she embarked on her solo adventure. The small velvet box contai

    She woke up and tiptoed from the room. Not too long ago, she noticed the peculiar lights from outside. Once in the kitchen, she reheated the coffee they left last night. She grabbed a mug, wrapped her body with the thickest coat she has and stepped out to her lawn with the cup of coffee. She walked towards the middle of her lawn and lift her head up, the Aurora Borealis has appeared right on top of her own lawn. In the clear night sky, they looked like swirling rivers of greenish-blue light with hues of red and yellow. This is the first time she's seen it. And quiet honestly, no words would ever compare to what she sees right now. No wonder people have always wanted to come here. The lights were believe to symbolize good luck, protection, and prosperity. She researched about it on her second week. She felt a different kind of overwhelming feeling. Then, she felt strong arms wrapped around her body. She didn't bother turning around and instead, leaned her head against his chest.

    "So, how did your meeting go?"She turned to her glass window. The sun shone brighter today. She felt that was odd because she didn't get to sleep that night. Austin's face haunted her."It was alright.""You didn't enjoy it?" her therapist leaned back, trying to give her enough space to breath."I didn't. I talked to a skeleton in my closet that I've been avoiding for too long."The therapist raised an eyebrow, sensing the gravity of the situation. "A skeleton in your closet? Can you tell me more about it?"She took a deep breath, her gaze still fixed on the sunlit landscape outside. "Austin, the man I love. We had a conversation, and it wasn't easy. I couldn't escape the memories, the emotions that surged back. It felt like I was facing a version of myself that I've been trying to forget."The therapist nodded in understanding. "Confronting the past can be challenging, especially when it's tied to strong emotions. What aspects of the conversation made it difficult for you?""He want

    She took a sip of her coffee as she looks out the huge lawn now filled with snow. As she sipped her coffee, the bitter warmth contrasting with the chilly Greenlandic air, she couldn't help but marvel at the pristine snow covering the expansive lawn. The serenity of the silent community around her cabin added to the peacefulness she sought. This is the first time she's been away her country home. The decision to escape to Greenland was driven by a desire for solitude and introspection. Three weeks ago, she got out of the country without anyone knowing. Shen simply sent the ticket for her destination. Now, she's in one of the coldest country in the world, Greenland. Her cabin was in the middle of a silent community, courtesy of Shane herself. She figured that it was some sort of an Air BnB booked especially for her. From this tiny cabin, she reflected on her own life. She gets visited by a therapist whom she met on her second day. She's been known as someone who has 100% success rate

    His office and even the house near Sari's is filled with Police Officers. He's been working with them 24/7 to make sure she's safe. The moment that Austin heard from Shane, he connected with the task force to help them catch Elias as well. But in the middle of all the chaos, he received an anonymous call. That was one of the strangest things he has received that day. "Hello?""I have something that I'd want to talk to you." it was a woman's voice on the other end of the line."It's not important anymore. Meet me in La Piazza."Then the call ended. His phone is not monitored by the police task force so he knows that no one is listening. He dialed another number."Dash. I need your help. I have to get out of this place.""Meet you at the exit in 5 minutes."He turned his phone off and got back to his office. He used the exit door from there to reach the entire building's exit where he knows Dash will be waiting. Just when he reached the exit of the building, Dash's car just took a s

    He handed her a glass of wine. One she knows must have had some kind of drug in it. He asked her to wear the leather outfit he bought her. In the table near them, was some of the kinkiest paraphernalia's she's seen. The sight of those made her cringe. This is the first time she's been with a man who seems to be on the more violent side. Hesitant, she took the glass and slowly took a sip.Iilang beses na ba niyang hinayaan ang sarili niyang gawin kung anuman ang gustong ipagawa sa kanya.Hasn't she been this way eversince she met Collin?"We're going to have some fun tonight."She giggled. The drug and the wine is taking effect so fast."Really?""Really."He slowly crawled towards her, a rope in hand. As soon as he gets to her, he uses the rope to tie her hands on her back. The remaining stretch of the rope is tied to both her feet.This makes getting out harder."Have you always been this kinky?""I have always been this wild." he answers.Worry filled her.

    J looked at the party scene. He just proposed to his girlfriend. The same woman he met while they were isolated in Austin's hotel. Lumapit sa kanya si Travis. "Congratulations bro." "Thanks Man." he proceeded on drinking from his own beer bottle. "You don't seem happy?" "How can I? Until now, Sari is still nowhere to be found. God knows how I'd want her to be a part of the wedding." "Well, you don't have any date for the wedding yet right?" "We don't. Pero baka kahit makapag-set na kami ng petsa, wala pa din siya. This all seems strange to me." "I know. The twins are back. I guess Sari made a few sacrifices along the way." "That has always been what she's doing. Sacrificing." J sighed as he once again took another sip of his beer. "I still believe she will be with us soon. Hindi ko din alam kung sa paano'ng paraan ako pwedeng makatulong. But every time I am somewhere, I always look around to see if may maliligaw na Sari sa mall or sa isang restaurant. Na baka at some point,

    It felt strange but she had this feeling that she is being watched. After her strange encounter with Elias' mother, she fell into deep slumber. Now she's waking up to the sudden chill and feeling of someone staring at her while she's sleeping. As she slowly opened her eyes, a shiver ran down her spine as the room's dim light revealed an eerie stillness. The air felt charged with an inexplicable tension. She scanned the room, searching for any signs of movement or the source of her uneasy feeling. The soft glow from the moonlight seeping through the curtains illuminated the room in an ethereal manner. Shadows danced on the walls, creating a mysterious atmosphere. With her senses heightened, she strained to listen for any unusual sounds or footsteps. Suddenly, a creaking noise echoed in the room, making her heart skip a beat. Her gaze darted towards the source of the sound. There, in the corner, she noticed a figure, partially obscured by the darkness. The silhouette seemed to blend
