Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 20: Leukemia
Eliyah's POV"Sigurado ka bang kaya mo na? You can still stay here if you want, Eliyah..." halata ang pagkabahala sa mukha ni Cresia nang sabihin niya iyon. Andito kami ngayon sa bagong bahay na titirhan ko. It's been two months since I gave birth to my twins and I'm thankful that I have Cresia and Eliot beside me. Through months that we are together, I've built a good relationship with them. Sa kanila ako tumuloy hanggang sa makapanganak at maging ready na ako. Ako ang naghahanda ng mga gamit nila, ako na rin ang nagluluto, naglilinis, at nagpapa-alala ng mga kailangan nila. Kahit doon man lang, makapagpasalamat ako sa lahat ng naitulong nila sa akin. At dahil doon, nakapag-ipon ako kahit pa-paano para sa mga anak ko.Ngumiti ako kay Cresia at saka siya niyakap. "Ano ka ba, we can still call each other even if we're not living in the same roof anymore and if we have a time, we can visit you two," ani ko naman. She pouted her lips and acted like she's wiping her tears. Napahagikgik a

Eliyah's POVIt seems like my world has stopped spinning around. I felt like the world has beheaded me... multiple times. Bakit kailangang mangyari 'to sa anak ko? Is this the price of all the mistakes I've done? Is this a karma? If this is, then why my daughter?! Why not me?! I'm willing to catch everything! Even death! Just don't hurt my children! Huwag si Rexie o si Elijah! Ako na lang! Ako na lang ang magkasakit! Pero nanghina ako nang nag sink in sa akin ang lahat. It's true. My lovely daughter, Rexie, has a leukemia. Nang magising ako ay wala akong ibang maramdaman. Nakatulala lang ako habang iniisip ang lahat lahat. Up until now, I still can't believe that it's happening. Bumangon ako sa pagkakahiga. I want to see my daughter. Gusto kong alagaan at bantayan si Rexie. "Ma'am, are you sure you can do it?" tanong sa akin ng isang Nurse.I just nodded my head at her before going to my daughter's room. The Doctor said that we can get out of the Hospital by tomorrow already. Wala s

Eliyah's POVHindi na ako naghintay ng kahit na ano pa. Mabilis akong pumara ng taxi papuntang sakayan ng bus. I rode a bus to go to the Hospital that Aling Myrna has texted me. Kinabukasan na ako nakararing doon. Some Nurses and people are watching me like a hawk as I ran to my daughter's room. Hindi ko rin naman sila masisisi. I looked like a mess right now. Hindi ko na rin nagamit ang mga damit na dala ko kagabi. I just needed to go to my daughter!"A-Asan siya, Aling Myrna..." hinihingal kong ani nang makita ko sila.Aling Myrna didn't say anything. She just hugged me and she cried, hard. Tumingin ako kay Mang Jerry na malungkot na nakatingin sa amin. I saw him shook his head before he bowed down his head. Hindi. Aling Myrna must be joking. Hindi pwede 'to. Hindi pwedeng mangyari 'to! Inalis ko ang pagkakayakap ni Aling Myrna at saka siya hinarap. Nginitian ko siya habang pumapatak ang mga luha ko. "Aling Myrna, asan ang a-anak ko, hmm?" nabasag ang boses ko nang sabihin ang anak

Eliyah's POV"What did the Montello Lines reply?" I asked ny secretary as I busied myself on my computer. I glanced at my secretary then I raised an eyebrow. "T-They approved your request, Miss Cruz." sagot nito sa 'kin.I smirked because of that. "What a good news to start my day," ani ko saka humalakhak.It's been 5 years since we left the Philippines for the States. I worked as a bookkeeper for a year until I got promoted as a Head Accountant in an Accounting firm. The owner and I became close. Wala siyang anak o kahit kamag-anak na magmamana ng lahat ng ari-arian niya. Kaya nang namatay siya, hindi ko inaasahan na sa akin niya ipapamana ang lahat ng yaman, ari-arian, at negosyo na pagmamay-ari niya. Pero hindi ko ginamit iyon para sa pansarali kong kapakanan. I worked hard as a CEO and owner of different bussinesses just to earn. Lahat ng nakukuha ko roon ay iyon ang ginamit ko para makapagpatayo ng kompanya sa Pilipinas. I never imagined that I would and could build a company l

Eliyah's POVI couldn't sleep because of what my secretary has told me. Hindi pwede 'yon! The Cervantes gave us the project first! How did the Montello Lines get it? And fuck, in just a short period of time... they were able to steal what's ours?! What's mine?! I wanted to call the Cervantes right now and question their decision. But then, I know that I do not have a hold on this. We didn't sign any contract yet. I can't fight this up. I'll just waste my time if ever. I ran through my computer all night. I didn't sleep. I put all my time searching about Montello Lines. But in the end, I still get frustrated because the informations that I got was all basic informations. I need something deeply! And I know that Montello Lines are not the only business under the Montello Incorporated. This is why I shouldn't waste a time. I need to work hard for my revenge. I won't win if I'll let this continue. Because I know that at some point... they are now doing something to get their position bac

Eliyah's POV"Mommy, is this ours?" namamanghang tanong ni Elijah pagpasok namin sa penthouse namin. "Yes, baby," I bought this penthouse three months ago. Wala pang masyadong decoration ito dahil biglaan din ang pag-uwi namin dito. This is a high-end penthouse that has twelve rooms. Binili ko ito para makapaghanda sa pag-uwi namin dito sa Pilipinas bago matapos ang taon. I planned it in December but since there are many problems occuring right now in Vega Lines, napabilis ang uwi namin. Tiningnan ko si Elijah na busy pa ring pinapalibot ang mga mata sa bawat sulok ng penthouse. Halata ang pagkapagod at antok sa kanyang mukha pero pinipilit niyang imulat ang mga ito para makilatis ng husto ang penthouse. I chuckled then knelt down beside him. His gray eyes went to me then he faced me. Nginitian ko siya na agad niya namang sinuklian. I slightly fixed the colar of his polo shit and brushed off his hair on his forehead."You're already tired, baby. Take a rest first. We have the whole

Eliyah's POVNakatutok lang ang mga mata ko sa panonood sa kanya habang nagsasalita siya. Everytime he opens his red lips, I would lick mine to feel something. Para akong hinihipnotismo sa sobrang rahan niyang gumalaw. He looked big on the chair in front of my table. He looked... manly with his stance. Na para bang siya ang hari sa nasasakupan niya. And everytime I look at his gray eyes, I remember Elijah. It feels and seems like I'm looking right at Elijah's eyes. "Are you listening?" his deep voice cut off the thoughts that are running in my mind. Sandali akong nawala pero sa isang kurap lang ay naibalik ko ulit ang kaninang postura ko. "Go on, I"m listening," Nanliit ang mga mata niya sa akin pero kalaunan ay nagpatuloy pa rin. Habang nagsasalita siya ay iniimagine ko kung ano ang magiging rekasyon niya kapag nalaman niya ang tungkol kay Elijah? And... Rexie. Elijah's already five years old but he's not yet asking me about his father. Never did he mention about it. Pero alam kong

Eliyah's POVA loud sound echoed in my whole office after my palm meets his face. Nanginginig ang kamay ko nang ibaba ko ito. His head tilted a bit and I saw his jaw clenched. I'm breathing heavily as I faced him."How dare you said that to me?!" sigaw ko rito.He faced me and smirked without humor. "What? Does it hurt, Eliyah? Truth hurts, right-""That's not true! You don't know anything to say those things! You're a manwhore! Ikaw ang sinungaling sa ating dalawa! And mind you... you're nothing but a fucking disgusting man that's not worth fighting for!" sigaw ko na nagpatahimik sa kanya. Matalim naming tinitingnan ang isa't-isa at parang wala sa amin ang gustong bumitaw. "Bakit ka ba nandito, huh? Is this the reason why you came here? To insult me? Why Rex? Did your father ask you to insult me? Or is it Shennun?"Tumalim ang tingin niya sa akin. He stepped forward reason why our distance lessen. "I don't follow orders from anyone-"I cut him off to laugh hard. "Oh, Rex. Hindi ka pa

Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Wakas: Forever-lasting kiss
Rex's POVThey say that happiness starts within ourselves. That we don't need other people for us to be happy... because they will only make things worse... they will only hurt us... they will only take away our smiles off of our faces.But they're wrong.Standing here in front while I watch Eliyah walked down the aisle, made me realized that I need her and our son for me to be happy. Because without them... I am living my lifeless life in... a dark."I really can't believe that you're deep in love, brother." ani ng kapatid ko sa aking tabi. Hindi ko siya pinansin dahil ayaw kong maputol ang aking paningin kay Eliyah at sa anak naming naglalakad papunta sa akin. Her dad is on her side and I can see, from here, the glistening tears around his father's eyes. I remember the day I talked to his father about my plans marrying her daughter. It's hard for me to do it because I know how much he hurt Eliyah and thinking that his father tried to hurt Eliyah physically make my heart tremble in
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 50: Case
Eliyah's POV"Lagi kang kwine-kwento ni kuya," the man whose name is Sebastian said to me. Andito kami ngayon sa isang coffee shop malapit sa prisinto kung saan kasalukuyang nakakulong si Rex. Sebastian invited me here because he wants to talk to me and I agreed. Bukod pa rito ay pakiramdam ko ay may alam siya kung bakit hinuli si Rex. Isa pa, ang ipinagtataka ko ay kung paano niya agad nalaman na nakakulong si Rex? Wala pang isang oras ang lumilipas nng hulihin siya ng mga pulis. And to think that he already knew what's up about his brother is I can't understand. Pero hindi ko na ito dapat pagtuunan pa ng pansin.What I need to know right now is the reason why Rex is arrested. Kung ano'ng kasalanan niya. And why he didn't fight? It seemed like he's accepting the verdict already. Nasa harapan ko si Sebastian habang seryoso akong tinitingnan. Walang buhay naman akong nakatingin sa kanya. Before I sat here, I first called Nadia to know if Elijah's okay. Ang sabi ni Nadia ay okay lang
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 49: Arrested
Eliyah's POVKinabukasan ay mag-isa ko na lang ang nakahiga sa kama namin ni Rex. When I wandered my eyes around the room, I can't see him. I closed my eyes and smelled the scent beside me. Rex's scent is my favorite scent. Ang kanyang bango ay walang katumbas. It's addicting more than drugs.Ilang minuto pa akong nanatili sa kama bago bumangon. Dumikit sa aking balat ang amoy ni Rex. Napangiti ako nang maalala ang mga ginawa namin kagabi. I looked at the ring on my ring finger and my cheeks burned because of it. The butterflies in my stomach are celebrating for it.I sighed deeply to calm my nerves from rejoicing. I then went to the shower room to bathe myself. Pagkatapos ay naghanda na ako para makababa na rin. I just wore my pink spaghetti strap and white short shorts. Habang pababa ako sa hagdan ay naririnig ko na ang ingay ni Elijah at Rex sa kusina. Nang makarating sa kusina ay tama nga ang naisip ko. Nandoon sila at parehong naghahanda ng breakfast.I chuckled as I watched the
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 48: Silver Ring
Eliyah's POVHindi na rin kami nagtagal at agad pumasok sa loob. I saw our maids trying to prepare snacks and foods for us immediately. Siguro ay iniisip nila na dapat ay nakapaghanda na sila kanina pa. Even though it's my fault because I forgot to tell them that we have visitors today."Sorry talaga, Eliyah. Hindi naman alam na may tao na pala sa labas kanina." Patuloy sa paghingi ng tawad si Nadia habang tinutulungan ko siyang mag-ayos ng mga tinapay. I smiled at her and caressed her hand to assure her that it's all fine."It's fine, Nadia. Kasalanan ko 'to dahil nakalimutan kong sabihin na bibisita pala sila rito ngayon." saad ko habang inaayos na rin ang juice. Nang matapos ko ay tiningnan ko ulit si Nadia. "Thank you for staying, Nadia. I'll just give them these to them,"Tumango siya sa akin at nag ngitian pa kami bago ako umalis sa kusina. I saw Rex watching Eliyah plays. Habang sina Stella at Axel naman ay parang naiilang pa. Lagi silang tumitingin kay Rex at paminsan-minsan
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 47: Jealous
Eliyah's POVI can feel Rex's arms around me as I sleep. Pagkatapos nang nangyari sa amin kagabi ay mabilis akong nakatulog dahil na rin sa pagod. Pero hindi ako nagsisisi. It was such a wonderful moment for the both of us. I opened my eyes and I saw myself lying on his chest. I can feel his heart breathing while his arms are enveloped around me, keeping me so safe, keeping me so warm, and protected. I looked at the clock and saw that it's alredy dawn. Napangiti ako habang inaalala ang lahat ng nangyari kagabi. Mas lalo kung siniksik ang aking sarili sa kanyang katawan. And for the second time, I fell asleep again.I could really say that this is one of the most peaceful and warmthful sleep I have ever had. I don't know if it's because I'm with Rex or what, but I like it so much."Good morning, baby," Rex's voice lingered at my ear, reason why I got awaken suddenly. Gano'n pa rin ang init na pinaparamdam sa akin ni Rex. I can't feel the coldness of air condition because of how warmt
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 46: Missed
Eliyah's POVRamdam ko ang saya ni Elijah habang kumakain kami ng aming dinner. His smiles were brighter now than before. I smiled genuinely to myself. Because finally, my son is receiving every happiness in the world and I know that he deserves it. He deserves it so so much.Pagkatapos naming magyakapan kanina ay saka ako naghanda ng aming dinner. I informed Nadia that I will be the one who will cook for our dinner. Napangisi ako nang maalala ang ngisi niya sa akin nang sabihin ko iyon. She never asked me of anything anymore. She just nodded her head then winked at me before she left. But I know what was running in her mind."Mom, when we will be going back to States?" inosenteng tanong ni Elijah.Napaangat ako nang tingin sa kanya dahil sa biglaan niyang pagtanong niyon. Slowly, I turned my head at Rex whose eyes are now serious and black. Naka-yuko siya at umaaktong hindi narinig ang sinabi ng anak. His jaw is a little bit clenched and I know how hard he was trying to restrain himse
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 45: Privacy
Eliyah's POVHindi ko alam kung ano ang dapat kong sabihin sa kanya. There's a part of me where I feel scared. Parang kahapon lang ay galit pa siya sa akin... pero ngayon, he's so sweet as honey.Napalunok ako nang dumausdos ang kanyang kamay sa bewang ko. His hot breath tickled on my cheeks. One kiss from him and I immediately pushed him away. Nang lumingon ako sa kanya, batid ko ang pagtataka sa mga mata niya."S-Susundan ko lang si Elijah," palusot ko bago mabilis na umalis sa tabi niya. Elijah is with Nadia. They are on the living room with the other maids. Ngayon ko lang natanto na mag-isa lang si Rex dito, hmm? It's easy for him to bring women here. That thought alone made me irritated at him even more. Maybe for the past years, marami na siyang nakamang babae rito, huh? And maybe in his office too! Fuck! Eliyah! Discipline please? Eh ano naman kung nakipag-sex siya sa ibang babae rito sa condo niya or even on his office? Eh hindi naman kami noon? So okay lang?Pero hindi pa
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 44: Welcome home
Eliyah's POVParang nawala ang bigat sa dibdib ko pagkapasok ko sa Hospital room ko. I saw Elijah sitting on my bed while Nadia is beside him, reading him a book. Agad akong lumapit sa kanila. They both looked at me and I saw how my son's eyes brigthened up because of me. Napangiti ako dahil doon."Let's rest now, baby?" malambing kong ani.He immediately and happily nodded his head at me. "Please, mom?" he pleaded while pouting.Napatawa ako dahil doon. I looked at Nadia who's also smiling while watching us. When our eyes met, she winked at me and smiled. Tumayo siya at lumapit sa akin."Uuwi muna ako. Babalik ako para sa dinner niyo mamaya,"Nginitian ko siya bago niyakap. "Thank you so much for always staying on my side, Nadia. I owe you a lot." sinsero kong saad.Naluluha siyang umiling. "Wala 'yon, Eliyah. Para na rin kitang kapatid."Nagyakapan pa kaming muli bago siya tuluyang umalis. "Do you want mommy to read you the book?" malambing kong tanong kay Elijah.He nodded his hea
Illicit Affairs Series 1: Professor Rex Montello Kabanata 43: Accept
Eliyah's POV"C-Can I hug you son?" Nakakabinging katahimikan ang bumalot sa loob ng hospital room ni Rex. Nangilid ang panibagong luha sa gilid ng aking mga mata. Habang pinapanood si Elijah, pakiramdam ko ay pinapanood ko ang batang si Rex kahit na wala akong ideya sa kung sino siya noon. Watching Elijah right now made me realized the mistakes I have done in the past.Pero kung tatangunin ako at mabibigyan muli ng pagkakataong baguhin ang lahat sa nakaraan, I will still do it. I will still hide Elijah from Rex. No matter what.Elijah's forehead creased because of what Rex said. Tumagal nang kaunti ang titig ni Elijah kay Rex at batid ko ang pagkalito niya rito. I thought Elijah will talk to Rex but he didn't! He didn't answer Rex but Elijah turned at me. His eyes softened.Niyakap akong muli ni Elijah. "Mom, let's go to your room," malambing niyang ani.Suminghap ako dahil doon. I hugged Elijah tightly. I caressed his back as I fought the urge of my tears to fall. When I looked at
