C17: Food Bazaar
"Sir, puwede ba akong mag early out today?" Aryah asked feeling excited. May balak siyang puntahan ngayon.
Napakunot ang noo ni Rwegian. Napapaisip ito kung bakit? May pupuntahan ba ang dalaga? May kikitain ba ito? Saan ito pupunta? Anong gagawin nito? Friday ngayon baka may ibang kasama itong lumabas. "Why?" He asked out of curiosity. "Nabalitaan ko po kasing may food bazaar dito sa area natin. Malapit lang naman pero gusto kong libutin at doon na rin mag hapunan." Kuwento ni Aryah na mukhang nagugutom na. "Really? What's in there?" "Filipino street foods, seafoods, desserts at marami pang iba. May Korean street foods din. Maraming iba't-ibang pagkain doon." Kuwento pa ng dalaga. Halatang excited talC18: Sunday Fun DayRwegian is in his parents house today to attend mass with them because his mother requested it. It's his parents wedding anniversary also. His parents want to spend some time with him for today to celebrate their wedding anniversary. Every year they are doing that."The mass will start in a few minutes. Where are you?" Regina said to her son on the phone."I'm coming. I'm in the parking area." Rwegian answered."Okay. Hurry."Nagmadali namang pumasok sa simbahan ang binata. Kakaiba mag celebrate ng wedding anniversary ang kanyang mga magulang dahil imbis na mga magulang lang niya ang mag-date, lagi pa rin siyang sinasama. Nag-iisang anak lang din kasi siya at lagi rin namang magkasama ang mga magulang niya. Her mother is grabbing this opportunity to spend time with him
C19: ThunderstormsHabang tumatagal ay lalong nagkakakilalang mabuti sina Aryah at Rwegian. For the record, Aryah have been working for five months now. Sa loob ng limang buwan, marami na silang nalaman o nadiskubrehan sa isa't-isa.Marami na ring nagbago sa ugali ni Rwegian simula noong maging sekretarya niya si Aryah. Marami siyang natutunang at naranasang bago at kakaiba.Marami ring namang nagbago sa dalaga. Unti-unti ng nagiging isang tunay dalaga ang ayos niya. Nalilimitahan na niya ang paggamit ng mga hairclips lalo na sa trabaho. Nasusubukan na rin niyang magsuot ng mga damit na bagay sa kondisyon ng panahon sa Pilipinas."Why do you have a cake?" Rwegian asked out of curiosity when he saw Aryah is holding a box with a cake inside. It's obviously a cake because of the packaging.
C20: Stuck With You"Nasaan tayo?" Agad na tanong ni Aryah nang magising sa loob ng sasakyan ni Rwegian. Napalingon-lingon ang dalaga. Nakahinto ang sasakyan ng binata sa parking area ng isang motel."I'm sorry. I think we are stuck here for a while because of the flood on the way. I heard it from the radio news while you're sleeping." Rwegian explained, "I decided to park here and if it's okay with you we'll need to stay here until morning. I was just waiting for you so we can have a reservation inside." He added."May bagyo ba?""Yes. I heard that too from the news.""Grabe naman ang araw na ito. Pasensya ka na nadamay ka pa. Sinamahan mo pa kasi ako." Pag-aalala ng dalaga."No worries. I was the one who insisted it. It's actually
C21: Awkward Silent Treatment Vs. FrustrationsKinabukasan nawala na ang bagyo. Nagcheck out na rin sila para umuwi. Pareho silang hindi pinatulog ng nangyari kagabi."About last nigh—" Panimulang pinutol ni Aryah ang sasabihin ni Rwegian."Kalimutan na lang ulit natin gaya nung dati." Pag-iwas ng dalaga sa sasabihin ng binata sa kanya.Ayaw niyang gawing big deal ang halik noong una dahil nakainom ang binata at ayaw niya pa ring gawing big deal ang pangalawa dahil nasa iisa silang kuwarto. Kahit unreasonable ang mga naiisip ng dalaga na dahilan, pinipilit niya pa rin sa sarili niyang isipan na 'wag na lang ibig-deal ang mga halik na 'yon. Hindi niya rin maintindihan kung bakit ganoon ang binata sa kanya. Ayaw niya naman magtanong, dahil ayaw niyang umasa at parang impusible naman k
C22: Tonight Is The NightRwegian attended a bachelor's party of one of the son's investors tonight. It's his first time to attend and accept the invitation. He just wants to try what it feels like attending a bachelor's party. Also, his father forced him to attend."Thank you, man!" George, the groom to be said to Rwegian. Medyo lasing na rin ang karamihan ng kasama sa bachelor's party."Congrats again!" Rwegian said a little tipsy.May sumundo naman na sasakyan sa kanya at naghatid dahil ayaw naman ng groom to be na madisgrasya sa pagdadrive ang mga imbitado sa bachelor's party at mahuli kapag nalamang nakainom.Nang makapasok sa unit si Rwegian, may nakita siyang wine sa kitchen cabinet niya at ininom pa ito. Masyadong maraming tumatakbo sa kanyang isipan latel
C23: Special RelationshipSimula noong may nangyari kina Aryah at Rwegian, naging malambing na ang binata na para bang maamong tupa. Napakaamo kay Aryah, pero napakatapang sa iba. Ganoon yata talaga kapag umiibig na. Ang dalaga naman ay laging natutulala, hindi pa rin makapaniwala. It's been one week since it happened and their relationship changed from a boss and secretary to a special relationship. Old soul ang dalaga pero nagpadala siya sa modern love."Stay here, baby." Rwegian said sweetly. Sweet as a candy."Buong araw na tayong laging magkasama." Dahilan ng dalaga."I think I should put your work place inside of my office. What do you think?""Okay naman ako sa labas eh." Pagtanggi muli ng dalaga saka lumabas ng opisina nito para hindi na magpumilit a
C24: Not Really A Normal Day"Yes, Mom?" Rwegian asked to his mother na pinuntahan siya sa kanyang opisina. Pulang-pula ang damit at naka-sunglasses."I am here to let you know that you're going with me in your Lola Paulina's house." Regina said with authority."In the province? Why? What happened?""She said she misses you. She wants to see her apo." She answered. Lola Paulina is Regina's Aunt. Kapatid ng kanyang ina. Simula noong namatay ang kanyang ina, si Paulina na ang ituring niyang ina. Mahal na mahal nito si Rwegian dahil isa itong matandang dalaga."When? Can we take Aryah with us?" He asked."Okay. That's fine. Will go tomorrow. I'll call our private pilot to be ready." She ag
C25: Province Life"Good morning!" Rwegian greeted Aryah. Sabay silang lumabas ng building ng unit nila. Sinundo na sila ng ina ng binata. Rwegian is wearing a summer attire while Aryah is wearing a jacket and a leggings.Gustong humawak ng binata sa kamay ng dalaga pero inaalis ito ng dalaga. Gustong tumabi ng binata sa dalaga pero ayaw ng dalaga. Medyo naiinis na ang binata dito pero gusto lang naman niyang makatabi at lubusin ang pagsasama nila ngayon kahit nasa byahe pa sila. May bitbit silang driver ngayon. Tatlong oras lang naman ang byahe papunta sa probinsya nila."Let's eat lunch na muna." Anunsyo ni Regina sa kanila. Kukunin nanaman sana ng binata ang kamay ng dalaga pero umiwas ang dalaga.Tahimik silang kumain ng Filipino foods. Pagkatapos kumain ay nagkaroon ng chance ang bin
EPILOGUE[Rwegian Simon Delgado's POV]When I first met Aryah I've never imagine that I would even fall for a weird secretary like her. So weird that I've got so interested to her and her life. I just suddenly realized that I already want to be part of her world. Her world with Korean dramas, Korean movies, Kpop, Korean foods, and all. She's not even my type. I hate how she dressed up before, I hate how she talked to me, and I hated her completely. I don't really know why and how I fall for her, I just know that I love her that I don't want to lose her anymore. Rare is really a big blessing to us, to me especially. Without her I think I am nothing. Good thing I didn't use protection that night. I want more kids with my wife. I love her so much that I hate seeing her with other guys. -[Aryah Belle Abad - Delgado's POV]In life, kapag single ka madaling magdesisyon para sa sarili, pero kapg may pamilya ka na kailangan mo ng lagong i-consider sila. Kailangan kasama sila sa pagdidedi

C48: How God Works In Life"He's fine now. Nothing's really serious happened to him. We already did some tests and the results are all normal. He was just maybe stress from work or from other things." His doctor explained to his family. "Thank you." Regina said.After few minutes, Rwegian woke up. Agad na hinanap ng kanyang mga mata ang kanyang mag ina. Naaalala na niya ang lahat.

C47: Memories Rwegian was about to get on the elevator when he suddenly felt dizzy. Napahawak siya sa kanyang ulo at mariing pumikit...."Rwegian Simon Delgado!" His father Renante shouted.Malakas ang pagbukas at pagsara ng pinto ng opisina ni Rwegian. Takot ang mga empleyadong nakakita kay Renante sa hallway papunta sa opisina ng anak. Nahuhulaan na nila ang mangyayari. ..."Sir!" Sabay-sabay na sigaw ng mga empleyadong nakakita sa kanya nang bigla siyang bumagsak sa sahig...."You're fired! I don't want to see you anymore! Get out of my f*cking office!" Rwegian shouted...."Sir, can you hear me?" Maraming empleyado ang nakapalibot sa kanya. Tumawag na sila ng ambulansya. He is still conscious, but can't see and hear the people around him clearly. He can't even move properly because of the pain of his head and at the same time his memories are coming all together. ..."Mom?! What are you doing here?" "As you can see I am here to bring your secretary that really suits to th

Aryah is almost finish with the planning, but she listened to Rwegian suggestions too. They both want only the best for their child of course. Rwegian still can't remember anything about them, but he is trying his best to bring back his memories with them. He is now making an effort to bring back his memories. He is sometimes frustrated about it, but Aryah is always there to support and help him to recover his lost memories. "Hello, everyone! Let's sing happy birthday to our princess." Rwegian announced to start the program. They invited kids from an orphanage their company is supporting. They've been supporting this orphanage since he was a child.

C45: The Trigger EffectGaya ng laging ginagawa ni Aryah, pingtimpla niya ng tsaa ang asawa. "Here's your tea. By the way you have a scheduled check up later at three in the afternoon." She informed him as she puts down the cup of tea on his table. Nakakunot ang noong binalingan siya nito ng tingin, "What? I have? I can't. Ca—""You can't cancel that. It's important. Para 'yon sa recovery mo." She insisted."B—" "No buts!" She said with authority. This is his problem for the past few weeks. He can't stop her from mendling his business for some reasons. May nararamdaman siyang koneksyon mula sa babaeng ito pero hindi niya pinapansin dahil ang alam niya'y woman hater pa rin ito hanggang ngayon. 'Yon din ang huli niyang naaalala. Noong una iniisip niyang inaanak kasi si Aryah ng kanyang ina kaya nasa bahay nila at wala itong matuluyan dahil iniwan ng nakabuntis dito. Pero habang tumatagal parang higit pa doon ang mayroon sa kanila. Lalo na't may nangyari sa kanila na sa tingin niya
C44: Jealous MonsterNagising si Aryah dahil sa iyak ng anak, samantalang tulog na tulog ang nasa tabi niyang asawa. Nakadapa at nakasubsob ang mukha sa unan. Bumangon si Aryah para patahanin ang anak na binigyan niya ng gatas. Nagutom na ng bata dahil alas sais na ng umaga. Biglang napamura si Aryah ng mahina nang mapagtanto niyang nakaunderwear lamang siya. She is only wearing a bra and panty. Kaya pala nilalamig siya pero kinailangan niyang asikasuhin agad ang anak. Nang tumahan na ang anak nila saka lamang siya nagsuot ng damit. Pagtingin niya kay Rwegian, nakaboxer shorts lamang ito. Kitang-kita ang hubog ng katawan sa likod pa lamang. Napakagat labi si Aryah dahil sa nakita. Naalala niya ang nangyari kagabi. Napangiti siya't napaisip na baka nakakaalala na ang kanyang asawa. Naligo muna si Aryah bago maghanda ng almusal nila pero nang matapos siyang maligo at hanapin ang asawa, wala na ito sa bahay. Naalala ni Aryah na ang pasok nila ay alas-siyete kaya siguro umalis ng hindi
C43: The Monster and The Secretary is Back Aryah's wearing not her normal secretary attire she used to wear instead she is wearing a formal yet sexy secretary attire. She is wearing a sleeve less blouse, a fitted skirt above the knee with a little bit of slit on the right side, and a black coat to look formal. Her body changed a lot since she gave birth, but still sexy. She not that weird secretary anymore, though she can still be at times. "Welcome back, Belle!" Xia greeted with a big smile while passing by to her. "Yes! It's good to be back." "You got this girl!" "Thank you!"Maya-maya ay dumating na si Rwegian with his father. They are talking about the state of the company right now. "Good morning, Sir!" Aryah greeted them. Tumango lamang ang mga ito. Sa sobrang focus nila sa pinag-uusapan hindi nila napansing si Aryah ang bumati sa kanila at ang sekretarya ni Rwegian. Tuluyang pumasok ang mag-ama sa opisina ni Rwegian. Nagpatuloy ang pag-uusap. Pagkalipas ng ilang minuto l
C42: Temporary Amnesia After a day nagkamalay na si Aryah. Naiyak si Aryah nang makita ang anak na si Rare. Napatingin naman agad siya sa mga magulang ng kanyang asawa."How's Rwegian po? Where is he?" She asked, worrying. Kinakabahan at hindi mapakali simula noong nagkamalay siya. "He is still unconscious, dear. Good thing you're here now. Somehow It lessens our worries." Regina answered. Nagkuwento pa ito tungkol sa kalagayan ni Rwegian ngayon. Ang ama nito ang nagbabantay ngayon. Mas gusto kasi ni Rare sa kuwarto ng kanyang ina kaya doon sila nakabantay ni Regina. Naunang makarecover si Aryah at nakauwi ng bahay pero mas nananatili siya sa tabi ng kanyang asawa ngayon. Sa ngayon si Rare ang nagpapalakas sa kanya at kinakapitan niya. Walang araw na hindi siya nagmakaawa sa Diyos na magising na ang kanyang asawa. Lagi niya itong kinakausap kahit hindi niya alam kung naririnig ba siya nito. Madalas siyang maabutan ng mga magulang ni Rwegian na namamaga ang mga mata sa kakaiyak. Nas
