"Alright, the quarter looks promising, though I need all team leads to be at the top of their game. We have visitors coming in next month. I need every one of you to keep your people updated of all necessary updates. Line up those we can feed to the client for their side by side sessions. Anyone who can follow standard procedures, keep them aligned. And keep our clients out of your outliers. At the same time prepare yourselves for reports and the FGD's." We were inside the conference room, all ears to our Site Director.FGD's or Focused group discussions, one of the most terrifying thing a team lead could ever get involved with. This is the time when clients hear out complains and concerns from agents. Most of the times, its about the process. But in several occasions, there are those who feel like its a great avenue to talk about their own personal opinion about the company and the management. Mga bagay na wala naman talagang pakialam ang client. Because at the end of the day, all

There are people who matters, and there are some who don't. Some people are significant, and some are irrelevant. Some chooses to be in the dark, alone and would not even care of anyone else except for themselves. And there are those who love the attention. The industry is filled with both these kind of people. One's who prefer being alone and the ones who prefer to be in the limelight. Just like Von. Von is one of those who's interests do not align with everyone else's. He's one of those who adores magazines rather than usual conversations with his colleague. He's been in the company for three years and yet, he still is invisible to everyone. His days always start the same way. He wakes up, cooks himself with the available noodles he have in stock, drinks his favorite cola and heads towards the office on time all the time. Von works like a bee everyday, in front of his assigned personal computer and stands up during his designated break schedules. He is the typical bee worke

"So why do you think people leave the company?"Of course. This is what people usually ask me. In the industry where I am in, people leaving for good are called turn overs. If I talk about it with technicalities, you will never understand. "People move on. We are known to be relentless beings and when we are no longer happy, we seek the happiness that we deserve. I think that's the reason people leave."I'm seated in front of one of the visiting clients. This is usually the standard. They ask questions pertaining to our process, our updates, our tactics in leading teams. All are standard procedures of the company. But nevertheless, they ask questions that are too tedious to answer. "I understand that, philosophically. But business wise, what do you think can we improve on to make sure we avoid people leaving."I sighed and concentrated on her pristine blue eyes. "I think that people need more ways to be rewarded for the hard work that they put in.""But haven't we done that?""Don

"Please sign here." I could barely hear the muffled voice from whom it came from. All I could hear ever since I walked in is deafening sounds. There were endless of papers I needed to sign, it felt redundant that I got bored of how my signature looked like. I am upset and I am making a decision. People should not be making decisions when upset should they?"Miss?" pukaw ng nurse na kanina ko pa kausap."Yes?""We'll give you an hour?""Yeah," I gulped, "Thank you."I walked into my father's room, my heart beating so fast. How should I tell him?How do I let him go?I stood in front of him, leaning against the door. My thoughts suddenly run through last night's incident. I was in a room with her and another man. She laid in bed, sexily facing me as the man he introduce me to was starting to caress me. Napapaigtad ako sa bawat pagdampi ng kamay niya sa kahit saang parte ng katawan ko. He started kissing my shoulders while my back is facing him, cringing at the feel of his lips aga

"Uggghhhh." I groaned, feeling the loud banging in my head. It's usually because of a hang over, I can never go wrong with that. I stood up, looked around and saw an unfamiliar body beside me. I twitched my head to the side trying to remember what happened the previous night. And as the memory started flooding in, I open my mouth in realization."Ahhh." but then the head ache started to attack again. I stood up and grabbed two aspirins, drank it up with water and started gargling. I heard the footsteps coming from the room and notice how he was leaning on the edges of the door, smiling."Yes?" I turned to him, agitated of how he is smiling at me. I could not even remember his name. "You were awesome last night."I rolled my eyes while crossing my arms against my chest."You have to go now.""Bakit?""Because I say so."He raised his hand in resignation. "I just want to let you know that I am more than just a booty call. I'm sure you don't even remember my name. And I mean you ha

We arrived at a newly discovered homestay in Batangas almost after lunch. The place looked so serene with a huge pool welcoming you in its front yard.As far as I know, we're the only ones staying in the place.I chose the room that's nearest the rooftop, where a cute lounge is set up.There were bean bags and a flat screen tv set up in one corner, a barbecue station and a popcorn machine.But nothing beats the view from that part of the house. Its a three story house fully equipped with kitchenware and all the basic necessities.May game boards gaya ng chess at scrabble, I also saw a billiard and table tennis in one corner.The place is huge at kahit piliin kong wag makihalubilo sa kanila ay pwede dahil sa laki ng bahay.I laid in bed diagonally staring at my father's urn.I still don't know what to do with it.I've bid my goodbyes to him a long time ago pero bakit mahirap pa din i-let go?The room started to light up even more. Buti na lang at malakas ang aircon sa loob ng room.Nak

I was floating in the swimming pool, looking up at the sky.It was an hour of the day when I usually think that the world stops.It takes my breath away, with the kind of silence it brings. A moment I use to think about all of th things that I needed to do in my life. "What are you thinking?"I didn't even notice him. Travis was staring at me. "Kanina ka pa ba diyan?""Medyo. You were so immersed in a different world. I didn't want to disturb you.""I want to work again.""That's good. Kahit pa alam kong hindi mo naman talaga kailangang gawin 'yan.""It's my father's money.""And now it's yours. Your father gave it to you.""I know. And I will keep it until I can. And maybe if I decide to have kids, I can do the same for them with what my father did.""Point taken. Are you coming back?""No. I can't go back there. Collin using those money just means I could be an accessory to his crime.""But you aren't. You didn't even know.""I know. But I can't go back. There were just too many m

FUBU Epilogo
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

The evening news and even the morning shows filled her faces.Sari became a sensation overnight as Austin's team tipped of the station's of her incoming press conference and interview. This day, she will be featured in an interview to one of the most controversial talk show host who does not hold her tongue when it comes to the most current news and events.The interview is in a popular network's studio and all Sari have to do is walk into their premise."Is Austin coming?" she asks Shane from the reflection of the mirror inside the dressing room."I don't think so."Sher rubbed her palms against each other, hoping to get enough heat that would calm her nerves."Are you okay?" Shane curiously asked while looking at Sari from the mirror."Yeah." she nodded, "I just feel nervous about all of this."Shane came to her and gave her a tight hug. She sees Sari smiling as she did that."Thank you for being here.""Lukaret, bakit naman hindi. Of course I will be here even if you don't want me

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
