Ann ran to the cliff where she could sit and cry her heart out only to discover that she had been beaten to it. She noticed someone dressed all in white, sitting at the end of the cliff with one leg raised up and his left hand supported on it, then his right leg hanging down the cliff as his back was facing her. His hair was all black and she had a feeling of déja-vu, despite the fact that she was yet to see his face.She walked slowly, to avoid scaring him and causing him to jump off the cliff. If it were her, she would have done so and that’s why she didn’t want to scare him off.As she came closer, she noticed the side of his face and it reminded her of a particular someone. Someone who held a special place in her heart after the very first time that she met him. She tried to look at his face from where she stood not wanting to go close but he kept turning his head like he already knew that she was around. She sig

EXCERPT (From 2 and more chapters ahead) "Hush! Don't cry. Everything will be alright." Manuel tried to comfort
Never to see her cry again “Manuel! Manuel!” A soft voice cried as she saw Manuel lying on the floor in his own pool of blood, coughing out some more blood to add to the much blood that already covered the floor. “A-A-Ann!” Manuel managed to ay as he was struggling for his life. “Don’t say anything, Manuel. Just stay calm for me, ok. You have to pull through this… you have to stay strong for us.” She added while whimpering. She struggled with him, carrying him up so they could go to the hospital… ***AT THE HOSPITAL*** Ann paced up and down as she awaited the doctor to come out of the emergency ward. Reporters stood outside the hospital as the security tried to hold them back. The evening was really a cold and terrible one. *(3 MONTHS EARLIER)* “Manuel, the drug effects are already wearing out. Soon the drugs will have no effects anym
Who Is That Guy?“Ann, didn’t you get what you want yet?” Lea asked, scratching her head and fidgeting with her eyes.“Jeez, Lea. Everything here looks so perfect. I am trying to find something but I just can’t.” Ann’s eyes just looked around the numerous female wears. Her eyes scanned them with desire and she didn’t know which one to chose. Those baby eyes of hers were feasting, a feast of a lifetime.Also, she looked at Lea and saw the tiredness that was written over her face. Although she chuckled at the sight but yet, she was baffled at the fact that Lea’s long hours of sleep didn’t have an effect on her. She was certain that Lea was going to be the first to wake up and not her.Thinking about the previous night, she couldn’t help the loud thuds of her heartbeat. She smiled as her mind begun replaying
Manuel walked out of the mall with a smile on his face. He had removed the nose mask and was now walking freely to the secret doorway. Richard saw this and gasped for it was the first time that he was seeing his boss smile elsewhere aside from his mother’s presence and probably his own presence. He didn’t know what to say to his friend and just chuckled as he looked back at his friend who was busy walking to the car with a smile. He didn’t want to ruin the moment by asking questions so he just stood there at the door and ordered that the security team prepare since they were leaving. When Manuel wanted to make use of this particular shopping mall of his, he ordered that the mall be closed. He patiently waited at the back of the mall to enter once the mall was closed and then the head of the security team ushered him in, assuring him that everyone who was in the mall was out. Once he got in, he went s
Manuel sat in the car enjoying his ride back home and playing some of his favorite tunes when the radio of the car tuned to an unexpected destination, a channel he didn’t like at all. “Welcome to Refine radio station, 97.2 FM. We have our TV channel which is currently channel 79 on TV station. We are here once more with some exciting news for you. Headliners first, Han Manuel, the heir to Han Empire will be turning 23 in a few months, rumors has it that he will officially be the owner of Han Empire by then.” Manuel just sighed. Richard tried changing the channel but Manuel decided to listen to the news just a little. “The sole bridge linking Town K and Town N collapsed this morning with 2 casualties and two deads. Former Minister of State was arrested for embezzlement of state mone, part of which he already started using. He is under severe torture to explain where he hid the rest of the money, accor
Manuel took his mom to the room where she was now resting. He came down the stairs and met his best friend Richard making calls. His face was no longer as pale as before. He was very better seeing that his mom had become calm. For a woman who wasn’t suffering physically, she was suffering emotionally and it pained Manu even more. How will she survive when he dies? He looked at Richard and smiled. His best friend was always there with him and maybe Richard will be there for her! No! Richard will be there for her. He will be the Manu in her life. Richard loved Leera like his own mom and Manuel knew that there was no better person to entrust his family in, except his best friend Richard. That was another reason why he kept Richard busy as his assistant because once he died, Richard will be the one to take over and take care of his mother. If he had a choice, he would have decided against it but that was
Annabel Wen, I didn’t raise you to be such a rascal.” Ann’s mom scolded her. Lea mistakenly spoke about the fact that everyone left the mall but Ann hid under dresses. “Mom!” Ann cried as her mom kept pulling her ears. She was feeling pains but hehe, she was definitely going to punish Lea for spilling the beans. Lea knew fully well that she was in for trouble as Ann was being pulled by the ear. “Mom, it’s not just me. Lea was in the mall with me when all these happened. She didn’t even tell me that everyone was walking out of the mall.” 'Oh boy I’m dead.’ Lea made a mental note and before she knew it, Ann’s mom used her other hand to pull Lea’s ears. Lea started to cry like Ann as the mother kept pulling their ears. “You stubborn kids, we raised you better, Margaret and I and here you are, being stubborn and foolish. Did it even occur to you that there were security cameras around and they co

Lea had a sunken face before and after Ann left but Ann didn’t take note of it. She had been sad all along thinking of the ring she saw in Brent's bag. She had seen it and she knew that Brent wanted to propose to Ann.How could she have looked shadowly at everything that was going on? Brent was clearly in love with Ann and she was just the stick in their friendship.A feeling of envy took over her and she needed to clear her mind.Her mom worked at a shopping mall at the province while her, she was a teacher there. She could use the place and relax her mind but she didn’t think of something unexpected and life changing was ever going to happen to her back there at the province.She was seated in the front seat of her mom's car when her mom hurriedly unbuckled her belt and was running inside the mall.“I'm so sorry, daughter. The boss is here and I need to report immediate
Face smacking LadyRichard on the other hand took his Saturdays as his days off so he could go to the province and visit his relatives there. Not just that, he owned a very big shop, in fact the biggest shop in the province and he always used his weekends do go see if the business is functioning as it is supposed to.He entered his car in a black polo t-shirt and dark blue jeans, with a black pair of low high sneakers on his foot. He drove slowly but surely and steadily for the province with his mind on Manuel. He came this far because he had a friend as Manuel and he was never going to betray their friendship for anything in the world.Manuel had helped him set up the place for himself. Joined hands with him in creating RM studio house which was growing rapidly into a big entertainment industry as many artists just signing up with him. He wouldn’t have gotten that far if not for Manuel and he was gr
That morning, at the Han's residence, Manu woke up from his king-sized bed that was covered in white sheets. His bed was in the middle of his room but the head bed rested on the wall of his room. On both sides of the bed he had two bed lamps and a mini cupboard. At a distance, left to his bed were 2 couches with a transparent table between them, and a copy of the refined newspaper on the table.At the far south of his bed, was another table with a remote, similar to those on his bedside cupboard, and a TV that hung on the wall, displaying a TV program on a particular channel, with another door that stood on the very wall as the TV. To his right was his large window and sets of chairs with another transparent table, a little bigger than the other one, with a fridge standing besides. There was a bottle of wine on the table with a wine glass lying carelessly on the table.He recalled drinking a lot and sleeping soundly like a baby till he
“So where is Brent?” she asked and Lea shook her head, becoming moody all of a sudden, confusing Ann. By the way, what time is it? Ann needed to go to church today since it was a Saturday and her family was always in charge of the church cleaning. Not only that, Brent was supposed to travel that morning to the states where he would study for about two months, a long time for the trio best friends.“Lea!”“He left. He went already and was really disappointed that you couldn’t wake up so we could both tell him our “See you soon”, and send him off with smiles on our faces.”She told Ann who just closed her eyes, feeling as a disappointment and a terrible person, she felt so guilty.“Anyhow, he said we should take care and count the days like shooting stars, cuz in no time he will be back. Although he didn’t want me to see him off at the air
~~~~~The next morning, Ann woke up feeling lightheaded but a little better, and a little dizzy even after the long hours of sleep. She looked at herself and she was still in her dress which sent off a repulsive scent that almost sent her flying out of it.She quickly held her nose, preventing herself from breathing. But what was she doing in this room? Whose room was it? What happened to her? Who brought her there? Questions kept crossing her mind about numerous topics.Then she opened her eyes in shock as everything came back to her mind as a patient that just recovered from a temporal amnesia.Everything that happened from the time she went to the party until when she met the strange men in the female's restroom and they held her. She blacked out after that time and only woke up on this bed, and in Lea’s room.Tears began clouding her mind as she looked
12. Kidnapper!*Lea after making the call, returned to the ladies restroom only to discover that Ann wasn’t around. She looked in all the toilets but dodn’t see her friend anywhere around.“Ann! Annie! Bel! Bella!” She called all the pet names she had for Ann but heard nothing.“Annabel Wen, If you are pulling a trick In me, know that I don’t like it.” But she heard nothing.She decided to look outside, maybe Ann had gone back to the dance floor since she had delayed on the call. She started to blame herself if anything happened to Ann.Annabel was under her care but because a stupid call came into her phone, she had to leave Ann in the restroom. Actually, it was Brent that called so she could explain to the guards at the entrance that Brent was with her.She thought she was going to meet some cute Asian guys but instead got disa
••• Kenny and his men took unconscious Ann to a hidden place, behind the club. The joy he had knew no bounds because he was about to do something to Ann that he will enjoy for the rest of his life. Ann was a beauty and not just any kind but a fresh and untouched beauty. He licked his lips as he kept her unconscious body on the ground. Just the sight of her in her full clothing made him rock hard that he imagined the monster that will take over him once he took off her clothes. “Boss, hope we all will taste this fresh meal.” One of his men asked him and he groaned. The stupid fool just interrupted his perverted thoughts. “No!” He answered huskily. “But don’t worry. Once I’m done, you all will have turns on her.” He chuckled before continuing. “That is if you don’t use your noise to get me upset.” Kenny seemed to be a dark man. With the way 3 big men kept quiet once Kenny s
