It's sarurday morning. Wala akong ship ngayon sa trabaho. At dahil boring sa bahay, umalis kasi sila Mommy papuntang Manila. Nagpasyahan kong ayain si Bella magshopping siya lang kasi sa magkakaibigan namin ang free sa mga araw na ito. Its been a month since I did my last shopping. Eric also buy me stuffs sometimes.
"Parang may napapansin akong kakaiba!" she said and acted like an investigator.
Here we go again at her chismosa mode.
"My dream necklace!" she hold at it. "How I wish someone would give me like this too!"
"Care to wait, Bella!" I said and continued walking. "Maybe not now but soon. There is still Kelton who's loving you unconditionally. Baka nagi-ipon pa lang siya!"
I said to make her feel ease.
"Hope so!" but later on she agreed of what I've said.
Una kaming nagpunta sa H & M. Nagsimula kaming maglibot sa mga dresses at shirts hanggang s
"I'm going to take him back!" she proclaimed."Really? Bakit?" I stayed my calmly face towards her."I think he still have feelings for me!" she twirled her hair. "The way he look at me. The sparkling in his eyes when we first met. I can feel it! Ganun parin!"Tsk."Ganun ba?" she nodded. "Then go take him. Let's see if you can!"Umamba akong lumakad ngunit hinawakan niya ang kaliwang braso ko."I'm still talking to you!" I raised my brows facing her while looking at her hand on my wrist.She's very annoying. An attention seeker."I thought you're done!" nangiinis kong saad."Aren't you scared? Jealous? Or whatever?" My side of lips rose up.She expected me for that huh. Kaya pala ayaw pa akong paalisin, gustong makita ang reaksyon ko.
Agad akong napabalikwas ng bangon ng maalala ang napagkasunduan namin ni Eric. Maggy-gym pa pala kami ngayon. It's already 5:30 am, I'd still have 30 minutes to prepare myself.Walang tao sa bahay, dahil nga nasa Cebu na sila Mommy, that's why I can move freely the reason why I'd finished early than my time limit. I am all set from my suits, hairstyle which is the ponytail and for my bottled water.I opened my social media account as waiting for Eric. As scrolling down my timeline there is a post that caught my attention. It is from Cynthia's Orphanage. Its states that they're all out of stock and they need a support for the sake of kids life. I stalked the page, they have a thousands of children wherein the facilities are not enough.I gasped.So I've made my decision that fast. After of our gym session, I will go to the said location of the orphan. Isang oras lang naman ang byahe papunta roon. At thankfully

"Ayos na ba lahat?" tanong ko ng paparating na sina Brent kasama si Mommy.Today is her 60th birthday. And we were going to surprise her. All the things and foods are all set. Our whole family was complete from Mommy's side to Daddy's. Eric's family is already here too, he is only the one missing. I don't even know where he went up.Tumango sila."Good, dahil paparating na sila!" I said excitedly.I went up to my room to get my gift for her. As stepping the stairs I hummed Mom's favorite song. Exactly, when I putted it on the table. Brent used car 'Almera' beep a signed that they are already here. I signaled Bella to place on the door. She have something to do. I handed her the party popper. I also called Dad whose smiling now and presented him the cake."Good luck to us Dad!" I tap his shoulder and sit near the microphone.

Around 10 am na akong nagising sa mahimbing na pagkakatulog. I checked my phone, a missed call coming from Bella and Eric. Hindi na ako nag-abalang tawagan sila pabalik dahil ang tanging nasa isip ko ay maabutan si Mom ng gising.Pagkatapos kung magbihis agad na tumungo akong hospital. Dala-dala ang resignation letter. Halos isang oras rin ang pagi-isip ko kung gagawin ko ba talaga ito but I have no choice. Kailangan ko naring suklian lahat ng sakripisyo ni Mommy sa kompanya ayaw kong mawala ito dahil lang sa hindi inaasahang pangyayari.Sapat na ang natutunan at karanasan ko sa Nascar, Maybe it's the time.Napahampas ako sa aking manibela ng maabutan ako ng traffic. PANIRA. I dialed the phone number of Dad."Good morning Dad, Gising pa si Mommy?" tanong ko sabay tanaw sa mga nakahelirang sasakyan dulot ng traffic."Uh-huh, Hinihintay niya daw ang princesa!" napangiti ako. "Where are you now?"
"Young Sis someone wanted to talk to you outside!" he articulated.Napatuwid ako ng upo sa sinabi niya."Sino?" Inayos ko muna ang aking sarili bago lumabas."Who knows. But I'm sure his one of your hundreds of admirers. He is the type of guy you really idealized, tall, nose-shaped, handsome, well-dressed and a model—Ouch!"Binatukan ko siya. Pinagsasabi ng lalakeng ito?"If that personalities you said doesn't match to the person I will be talking. Better hide younger brother cause you're dead!" I warned.When I got out of the room, I saw no man sitting. But a woman with a face who is very familiar to me.Humanda yung Brent nayon sa akin mamaya."Hi Dette!" nakangiti siyang kumaway sakin. "Did you still remember me? I'm Weine, your bestfriend ever since elementary!"Nanumbalik sakin lahat. Naaala ko na siya. Siya yung babaeng
I was having a hard time gaving birth to my little sunshine. Eric never left my side from my labor up to my due time. His grip on my hand was so tight during my delivery. He avowed a lot of sweet words whenever I'm on my hard pushed.Eric explained everything on me. And I understood him. We moved on his house the week before my labor. It was the house where he brought me after we went on the orphan. It was still the same just like my first time here but there's just a little changes on the furniture.Everyone was happy knowing that we were back again. They wan't us to take an interview for the both of us but because of the baby Eric refuses. The time we moved, our closest friends, relatives and some business friends sent us flowers.Hope your new house becomes a home! :)-ZelaiMay you and your family enjoy years of happy times in your new home!-Justin DwyerMay you create countle
He stood up firmly. He intertwined his hands on his back and walk beside me. I quivered when I smelled again his manly scent.Lumingon ako muli kay Bella pero binigyan niya lamang ako ng kakaibang ngisi at kumaway sa akin para makaalis na. She really left me here with him.Dinamay pa ni Bella ang sales lady na nagdala sa akin papunta rito. Hinigit niya ito papalayo sa amin. Does she know his coming? I doubted her gestures now."Well, I'm here to buy furnitures for my home. It look too spacious now and it so irksome. I wan't your furnitures to fullfill sa anumang kulang sa aking bahay." he asserted huskily.I gave him a fake smile. "Thank you for choosing our things to complete your house. The only thing I would say is, you will never regret on your decision!""I already regret one thing,""May sinasabi po kayo?" I asked bemusly. He shook his head. "Dito
"Can we go out, Dinner?" Justin asked genuinely.I smiled how he put some efforts convincing me to come. Para siyang teenager. Naalala ko ulit tuloy ang mga panahong lumalabas kami para mag-date. Sa kalaunan rin nagpatinaod na ako sa kanya. Sa isang magarbong restaurant niya pinahinto ang sasakyan kaya nakatitiyak akong dito ang sadya namin.Umikot siya at inalalayan akong makababa ng Mustang limited-edition niyang sasakyan. The waitress greeted us and guided where to sit. I was amazed when I saw the lights from the city. It was really a nice spot, kitang-kita rito ang kagandahan ng San Carlos.Lumapad ang ngiti ko when he handed me flowers."Thank you!" nanunuot sa ilong ko ang mabangong amoy ng mga ito. "But Justin-"He interupted me. "I understand. Alam ko naman talagang wala akong pag-asa sayo. Malakas ang kamandang ng isang Asterio sayo eh,"I smiled awkwardly. Kahit kailan tal
Hindi ko mawari kong napipilitan lang ba siya o galit sa pasya ng ina. He's hard to read now. At isa yan sa mga napansin kong nagbago sa kanya. Pansin ko rin ang limitado niyang galaw na para bang may maximum limit iyon. I sighed."Let's go." he firmly said.I looked at the girl bago ako tumalikod. She's not looking at me and Eric anymore instead na kay Tita na ang atensyon niya and she's smiling when Tita offered her to sit. Mahinhin siyang umupo sa harapan nito.My brows furrowed. How could this man leave his girlfriend like not existing. Hindi man lang niya ito tinapunan ng tingin bago tumalikod. Tsk. Poor girl and poor him.Pababa na kami ng hagdan ng pinauna niya ako. I stopped. Pinaningkitan ko siya ng tingin ng magtama ang mga mata namin."What?" he snorted like he didn't know what he did. Like he's clueless.Feeling inosente pa. Ngumuso ako."Bakit nakapadal
"If ever he will beg, please accept him back. He didn't mean it, he just did it in order to protect you. It is all my fault! Sorry."Her last words occupied my mind. Para akong lutang ng makalabas ng station. Hindi ko man lang naiintindihan ang sinasabi niya.Kung wala lang ang mga bodyguards ko sa aking kiliran tiyak na nabundol na ako sa kung sino-sino. I was really in my deep thought, is he reffering for someone? If yes, for whom?I was going to entered in the car when I saw a bunch of teens holding a cup of milk tea. Kumalam bigla ang sikmura ko.I roam around my eyes nagba-bakasakaling makakita ng malapit na milk tea-han. Pero bigo ako, tanging mga karenderya lang ang mga nakikita ko sa gilid. Ngumuso ako. I carassed my tummy, looks like I can't satisfied my cravings for today. Or maybe I'll just order it later on Grab."Ma'am may malapit lang po rito na starbucks," My moods lightened. Lu
"Slap me!" diretsahang pasya ni Railey ng madatnan ko siya sa visitor's area ng kulungan.I sat on the chair in front of her and placed my bag beside me. She was already wearing color orange shirt.After knowing that she was already in the jail, that alerted me. Pero kinabukasan nalang ako pumunta ng presinto dahil hindi ako pinayagan nila at delikado na dahil gabi narin.Hindi ko na pinasama sa 'kin sina Dad at Brent dahil alam kung napagod sila sa ginawa nila kahapon. But I was with my personal bodyguards naman para rin mapanatag ang loob nilang tatlo."I don't do that," I said coldly. I admitted na masyado ngang masama ang nagawa niya sakin pero sapat na ang makulong siya ang bilang parusa.Ngumuso ako. I wasn't that bad. I'm not kind of person."Ano masaya ka na ba ngayon? Nakita mo akong nandito at nilalamok. Sana naman ay pinapatay mo nalang ako sa Tatay mo o 'di naman s
"Sweetie, May lead na daw ang kapulisan kung saan maaring makita si Railey!"Naalerto ako sa sinabi ni Dad. Agad akong napabalikwas sa pagkakahiga. I placed the phone between my shoulder and ears at hinagilap ang mga gamit kong nakalatag sa mesa ng opisina ko.I messed it up noong nakatulog ako."Wait for me Dad, I'll go with you" I said in a hurry. Wala na akong pakealam kung magulo ba ang pagkakalagay ko sa mga gamit sa bag."No sweetie, No need." Kung paano ako nagmamadaling iligpit ang gamit ko ay siya rin namang kabilis pagtanggi ni Dad. "You need to rest baka mapano ka pa kung sasama ka. This is dangerous, Sweetie. Remember, You need to take care of every single time you move."I sighed and pouted my lips."But Dad--""Young Sis, Kami na ang bahala rito. Bagkus we're now far from where you are at sayang na sa oras pag binalikan ka pa namin. Or else baka tumaka
"Who ordered you to do this?"When it was calm, Brent was the first to ask. He gritted his teeth. We sat face to face with the three suspects with their hands behind their backs. The mouths of the three remained silent and could not lift their eyes to us."Sino?" he repeated coldly. Anytime ay parang sasabog na siya sa galit pag hindi pa ulit ito sasagot. Kung nakakamatay lang ang titig ni Brent tiyak na nalagutan na ito ng hininga kanina pa.Umamba siyang tumayo pero agad ring napigilan ni Daddy. He clenched his fist. Kahit si Brent ay naghuhurmitado na sa galit, isang salita lang galing kina Mom o Dad tiklop siya."Let them talk, Wag mo munang bubugbugin baka mas lalong itikom ang mga bibig niyan." Dad articulated with a sharp eyes towards the suspects. "Magsasalita rin iyan. Pinag-iisipan pa nga lang."Bumuntong hininga ng malalim ang nasa gitna. Sa tingin ko'y nasa mid 30's na ang edad. Naka-bon
After knowing Mom that I'm pregnant hindi na siya mapakali sa sitwasyon ko. Kung ano-ano nalang ang mapapasok sa ulo niya.Kung tutuusin para siya ang buntis sa aming dalawa. Mas stress siya kesa sakin."Is the baby healthy? Should I hire some bodyguards for you two?"Mom and Dad also knew that recently I was receiving some death threats. Kaya natural na hindi mawala-wala sa mukha niya ang takot."A personal nurse will it do?" si Dad sa mapag-alalang tono.Napangiti ako sa inasta nila."Don't worry the baby is healthy, no need for bodyguards and a nurse," mahinahon kong sunod-sunod na sagot. "Everything will be fine."Sinabi mo na ba ito kay Eric?" Brent asked.Natigilan ako saglit bago sagutin ito. Dad eyes were waiting for my answer while Mom bowed her head. I know that they will ask this matter. Eric."Hindi pa, Sigur
