She woke up early and started her morning routine. Took a bath, had her breakfast, and carried her things. She is living alone in an apartment since she will be working in the City while her parents were in their ancestral house in Baybayin, Rosario, and Batangas. She's the only daughter of a couple of farmers Mr. and Mrs. Ricafranca. She grew up with a simple provincial living who only knew the school and their residence. Her friends used to call her a nerd and clumsy girl since her school days for she only studies well and does not join them with the usual teenagers do, partying, mailing, and strolling.

After her duty as a Preschool Teacher at ST. Mary's Academy, Maria then went to her apartment already. She's now living alone. It will be her first time away from her parents who used to serve her everything. Even if they have a simple life, her parents let her grow up with everything they can give to their one and only daughter. She grew up a kind and God-fearing person. She is a very obedient daughter to her parents. Living alone somewhat made her sad as she was separated from her parents now though she finds it challenging and full of excitement as well. She will learn how to cook for herself, how to wake up early all by herself, and how to make things she hadn't done alone before. She wanted to develop herself to be more sociable as it will be needed in her work as a preschool teacher. She also wants to explore making herself improve and be more confident. She is also dreaming of meeting someone, her soulmate perhaps when she is not under her parents' roof now. She's already 20
Early morning, Teacher Maria woke up early and had her preparations before going to St. Mary's Academy. She is so excited to meet her cute pupils once again. She knows that they will enjoy their topic for today. She took a bus already. She arrived at the school early as well giving her ample time to set up everything in her classroom. She will be having a Coco melon theme inside her room so that her students will have a playful mood while learning her lessons for today. When the students arrived, "Wow ! Teacher our classroom looks so cool," one of her students shouted as loud as her eyes widened upon entering the room. "Yey! I love our room Teacher Maria," the other one exclaimed. "I'm so excited about our learnings for today," said the little boy coming in. Teacher Maria smiled and felt so happy upon hearing her students' compliments. "I'm so glad you all like and appreciate our room today. I make sure to give you more themes in the future my dear students," she said to her stu
Mr. del Fuego stood up from his bed and took his cigarette. He just wrapped a towel around his waist and went to his veranda. "Hmmn," a sound of a woman came out under his quilt. "Good morning Honey," Cassandra greeted Mr. del Fuego while looking at his staggering and sensual aura. She was one of the realty agents under his firm. She had a long sleep after being exhausted last night with him. He was like a hungry beast who devoured her body last night. It made her so excited again thinking about how he did it last night. It was her most steamy night. He was so manly and delectable and can make every woman fantasize to be in his bed. Luckily she was one of those. She rose from the bed and straightly walked naked towards him. She hugged Mr. del Fuego from his back. Mr. de Fuego felt her big soft orbs at his back and he became irritated. "You may leave Cassandra," he said emotionless. Cassandra paused for a moment. She can't believe those words came out of his mouth after their heated
It was the early morning of Saturday, and Teacher Maria felt that she missed her parents already. She missed her mother's cooked dishes and her father's serenade using his harmonica for her and her mother. Usually, if it's the weekend, they spend quality time together. They also used to go to their vegetable and fruit farm and she helped her parents harvest some tomatoes, eggplants, pechay, and fruits like bananas and coconut. Her parents were both hardworking. Harvesting and selling their stocks at the wet market in the town of Rosario is their source of income. They were living a simple life yet they were wealthy of the love and happiness within their family. She immediately packed all her used laundry and planned to wash those in their home. She was so excited and hadn't advised her parents of her arrival. She wanted to surprise them. It was one whole week of being separated from them and she longed for them already. "I knew that Mom and Dad will be surprised at my arrival," she
Mr. Jericho del Fuego had this impression of Teacher Maria. She is quite far different from all the women being linked to him. Maria is more of conservative type and naive. She was the only one who doesn't show any interest in him when he accidentally send her to their home in Rosario.Jericho was a bit challenged by her. He smirked and think of something naughty with Maria. No one can ever snob him. He was the notorious playboy Bachelor in town and he want Maria to be part of his collections. He would like to play with her only. He wanted to discover how will she react to his charisma. He smokes while he was walking in the parking lot of his building.Meanwhile, Teacher Maria was busy doing her school reports and teaching her students. She's a bit distracted every time she thought of the handsome face of Mr. del Fuego. She was fortunate that she was sent to her home last time by Mr. del Fuego without any damage done to her. Mr. del Fuego had been known as a playboy bachelor in town,
As Teacher Maria was so busy preparing for the upcoming Teachers' Conference in Cebu, she received a message from an unknown number. She immediately opened her phone's inbox and got surprised with the message and to whom it came from."Hi Teacher Maria, Can I invite you for a dinner tonight? It's me Echo, remember me?" the message came from Mr. Jericho del Fuego, the one she had a crush on. But then she was quite hesitant to reply to his invitation. Mr. del Fuego had a reputation as a playboy and a womanizer. Even if Maria had a crush on him, she felt awkward because of their status gap.She knew that she might be one of those women who will cry after Mr. del Fuego rejected her. "Hey, Maria, why are you having those thoughts? Mr. del Fuego is just asking for dinner. That's all!" her conscience asked her.She was quite ashamed of what she had just thought. She might have overthought it that way. Perhaps Mr. del Fuego just wanted to know more about her father's business and she might be
Teacher Maria was quiet during their journey. Mr. del Fuego was looking at her once in a while. He smiled when he saw that today, Teacher Maria wore lipstick and light make-up. From their previous meetings, she was so simple with no makeup at all. Her beauty is quite intriguing. He can see her natural beauty the longer he stared at her. "God, she is really beautiful," he said to himself.Teacher Maria was so conscious of her looks. She was worried that she put on too much makeup or was her lipstick too visible enough for Mr. del Fuego to look at her once in a while. She was now becoming uncomfortable that's why she asked him," Excuse me Mr. del Fuego, eeer, I mean Echo, why are you looking at me while you are driving? Is my makeup too thick? We might encounter a vehicular accident if you continue to look at me while you are driving." There was a bit of concern and weariness in her tone when she asked him."Of course not. I know how to drive well. No worries. I'm looking at you because

Just leave it to me and I will handle it very well.For the past one of preparation, Ms. Lorna had been very busy and hands-on with every detail needed for the success of Maria and Jericho's inti
Maria was so amazed after she awakened. Knowing that she was pregnant with twins was truly a miracle. She had lost her parents and now having twins in her belly. God really gave her reason to be alive.She wasn't aware that she was sleeping for almost one week. Being in coma with her twins gave her some thoughts that she really needs to be strong not just for herself but for the three of them.Jericho saw how Maria was having some thoughts ans he was not aware of what is was."What are you thinking of just now, my love?" Jericho asked him. He combed MAria's hair strands with his fingers."I am just grateful to wake up. I am so thannnkful that God gave us twins to complete our family," Maria sobs on Jericho's chest.Jericho hugged her and offered his wide chest. "God wanted us to be complete and treasure the relationship that we have right now. He won't allow us to part our ways," Jericho caressed his wife's back and pampered her. He kissed MAria's forehead and gave her an assurance t
Carla was so afraid after she was brought by the investigation team of Carlo to a dark warehouse in Lemery, Batangas. She wasn't aware of what would be done to her.She almost threw up after someone removed a piece of cloth from her eyes. There were lots of big rats roaming around and the place was so dirty. She couldn't even cope with the rotten smell in her nostrils."What the fuck! What kind of place is this?" she almost shouted."Well, this will be your home from now on," Carlo said."No! I couldn't stay here. Let me out of here please," Carla cried."After what you did with Jericho and his family? Do you think Jericho will spare you?" Carlo yelled at her.Carla was so frightened."Look! I only want a few bucks. Just give it to me and I will leave them at peace," she said. "I don't want to be here please," she cried."Few bucks! You could have asked Jericho about it. Why let Maria and their babies suffer then?" Carlo asked"I don't know about Maria. I've just learned about her whe
The elder Del Fuego, immediately went through his son and invited him to have a coffee break at the cafe near the Hospital's lobby."Come on son, let's have some coffee. Maria will be taken care of by you Mom," he put his arm on his son's shoulder and led him to the cafe."Thank you, Dad," Jericho was almost wiping off the tears from his eyes as he came along with the elder Del Fuego.The two men were led to the Cafe in the Hospital's lobby.Little did they know that Carla was there also and looking for an opportunity to go to Maria's room. She wasn't that bad and she felt a bit guilty of what she did. She just wanted to get some money to compensate for her needs. She was a bit curious about what was happening to Maria. She wasn't aware that Maria was having two babies in her belly.When Carla saw Jericho and his father were coming over, she hid at the big plant at the corner of the Cafe. She wanted to hear what the two would be talking about."Have some coffee, son. Let's talk," the
Maria was terribly bleeding upon reaching the hospital. She was immediately attended too by the medical team of Metro Lemery Hospital in Batangas. "I can't forgive myself if something happened to my Maria and my child," Jericho bursts out crying. He felt so guilty about what happened awhile ago.He wanted to punch Carla. She totally ruined his relationship with Maria and to his parents.Mrs. Del Fuego was so disappointed and mad at Jericho. She can't forgive her own son either if something happened to Maria. She was almost her daughter and she wasn't fully recovered yet."How dare you get involved with that trash woman? As much as I wanted to understand you, I just can't," Mrs. Del Fuego was crying so loud as she hitting Jericho in his head."Stop it! Stop it! It won't help. Let's get pray for Maria's safety and our unborn grandchild to recover from this?" Mr. Del Fuego hugged his wife and detouched away from their son.He understood his son. He had been in the same situation before
Early morning, Carla went to Del Fuego's Ancestral house. She had learned that Jericho brought his new woman in his parents' home. She was so furious as she thought that she should be that woman who would live in Del Fuego's home."I need to live there by hook or by crook," Carla caressed her tummy aand told herself. "I won't allow anybody else to take my place as Jericho's wife. I declare it already that he was the father of my child," she gritted her teeth while driving so fast.Meanwhile...Del Fuegos were having their family breakfast together with Maria. Jericho took extra care of Maria as she was advised by the doctor to be very careful due to her delicate pregnancy. She was staying with her bed and Jericho bought a wheelchair for her to roam around the house.Jericho doesn't want Maria to be stressed and disoriented. She hadn't been fully recovered yet from her parents sudden death and from being hospitalized.Knock.. knock.."Are you expecting some deliveries today Honey," the
Carla, on the other hand, was so furious when she learned that Jericho was already dating and worst brought a woman already in his ancestral home."It was supposed to be me. Who was that woman? She is stealing my man!" Carla threw her mobile phone after searching for Jericho's photos on social media.She had browsed several photos of Jericho with Maria."She was just a nerd lady, my gosh. Where did Jericho catch this ugly woman?" she continued drinking her shot of Cuervo from the hotel she checked in."I won't allow her to ruin my plans. My baby needs Jericho and his wealth," Carla gritted her teeth while drinking too hard.Ring... Ring...Carla's other mobile phone rang. When the name appeared on her mobile phone, she smiled and answered it."Yeah, hello Bradley," Carla said."I've been trying to reach you since a day ago, but I haven't reached you. Where the hell are you?" the man calling her yelled."Will you stop nagging me," Carla yelled at him as well."I am looking for a wealt
The elders, Mr. and Mrs. Del Fuego arranged an interior design for Jericho's room when he was still s bachelor. They asked the interior designer to arrange Jericho's room into a couple's room which is quite suitable to Jericho's favorite colors black and red. They had also asked the interior designer to design the adjunct room as a nursery for their upcoming grandchild. "I am so excited about our grandchild," Mrs. del Fuego giggles while talking to her husband." How I wished to have twin grandchildren," she added."I am excited too. Wishing for twins as well my love," Mr del Fuego responds. The interior designer was so delighted with the sweetness of Mr. and Mrs. del Fuego. Sometimes it's quite rare to see elderly people giggling with each other like a teenager. "I just hope that there will be no other woman to ruin Maria and Echo's affair. They will be having a child already," Mrs. del Fuego told her husband. She is a bit worried about the fact the last time there wa
