2024-10-29 19:42:56ROMA AND I both promised that we will not keep our individual troubles, problems, and plans from each other so that we can really work as a team. We both saw that as means to function as parents and partners in raising the twins and in building our modern unconventional family.
This was why he disclosed to me that Prince was resigning from his company. Napahinto ako sa paghihiwa ng bawang dahil sa sinabi niya at gulat na agad namang napakunot-noo sa pagkabahala paglingon ko sa kanya. He was playing with the twins at our small living room.
“Really? I mean, why would he resign?”
Napabuntong-hininga naman siya bago nagkwento. “He said it's for the best. Mas madali raw naming matatanggap ang nangyari kapag malayo na kami sa isa't isa gaya nang dati.”
“And you're fine with that?” nag-aalalang tanong ko sa kanya.
“That's life, Julie. You take the blow and move on. Sig

Ciao, everyone! (◍•ᴗ•◍)♡ Allow me to take this opportunity to extend my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for reading and supporting this story. In all honesty, this was my first try on romance genre because I am actually more on speculative fiction (fantasy, supernatural, and sci-fi). Just like how I always craft my stories, I also want this to become informative, and I really do hope that you have learned something from Julie Tearjerky (Eraserheads Series #2). It was always my dream and goal to write something under Queer Theory since the day I stumbled upon it in one of my Filipino Literature subjects in college (and Gender and Society as well). I want to prove that writing about the LGBTQ+ Community is not only limited to boy's love and girl's love because it actually encompasses a lot. It can tackle about one's gender and sexuality crisis, a tale of a modern family, and the struggles that come along with it. I felt like there's so much we still have not talked about sex

Welcome to the Season 2 of Julie Tearjerky (Eraserheads Series #2) ♡ AFTER FIVE YEARS, we have finally made our plan of coming back to the Philippines a reality. Inabot kami ng limang taon sa paghahanda dahil sinigurado muna ni Roma na established na ang kompanya niya at ang takbo nito sa Pilipinas bago kami lumipat. He was a businessperson after all. Mahalaga pa rin sa kanya ang usapang negosyo. Tamang-tama rin dahil papasok na sa kindergarten sina Mari at Maki. Huli kong isinabit sa may dingding kasama no'ng iba pang picture frames sa sala ang frame na naglalaman ng larawan namin nina Ponkan at Bayani. In those years, one of the saddest things that befell on me was the death of Bayani, my beloved and heroic dog. He died due to a hit and run incident caused by a reckless driver and while saving my twins. Tulak-tulak ko ang stroller ng mga anak ko no'ng araw na ‘yon at kasama ko sila ni Ponkan habang nag

AFTER TUCKING THE twins to bed, I went back to our room. Simula nang mapagdesisyunan naming magsimula ulit ay nagtatabi na kami ni Roma sa iisang kwarto at kama. Franky speaking, we did countless of lovemaking in the course of five years. Kaya lalo akong naguguluhan sa estado ng relasyon naming dalawa... Pagkahiga ko sa tabi niya ay tinanong na niya ako agad. “The twins are now asleep?” “Oo, napagod siguro ang dalawa kanina.” My kids tried to help me in further organizing and decorating our house. Kapag may mga gamit akong gustong kunin ay sila na ang kukuha no'n para sa akin. Tumigil na siya sa kakakalikot sa cellphone niya at ibinaba na iyon sa ibabaw ng built-in cabinet sa may bandang headboard ng kama namin. “Hmm...” He laid on his side, rested his elbow on the bed, and then his head on his palm. He crouched and claimed my lips for a soft kiss. S

PAGKATAPOS KONG MAGBIHIS ay agad kong pinasukbit ng mga maliliit na backpack nila ang kambal saka kaming tatlo sabay na lumabas ng bahay. Ponkan's dog house was at the backyard kaya malaya siyang magtatatakbo roon sa malawak naming lawn. I don't have to worry about him because I'm assured that he was safe there. May dalawang kotseng dinala si Roma sa bagong bahay namin. He left the others to Lilo's place and at their mansion at the province. Roma made me enroll at the driving school two years ago. He kidded that I should upgrade my bicycle. Hindi na rin ako tumanggi kasi tama nga naman siya no'ng ipinaliwanag niyang magagamit ko iyon lalo na kapag nag-aaral na ang mga bata at talagang makakatulong iyon sa akin gayong gusto kong karerin ang pagiging full-time mommy at solohin ang paghahatid-sundo sa mga bata. Roma drove the black Land Rover going to work. Iniwan niya sa akin ang compact style na kotse na saktong-sakto nam

NASA LOOB NA nang maliit na basket ang lahat ng mga pinack ko. Roma and our three kids, including Ponkan to the count, stayed and sat at our well-lit porch. Doon daw sila maghihintay sa akin. Pagkatapos kasi nito ay sabay-sabay na kaming kakain ng hapunan. Una kong pinuntahan ang bahay nina Florence. After handing her the adobo, she introduced me to her son, Gelo. He indeed had a face sculptured for modeling and pageantry. Gwapong bata nga talaga siya. Florence also paid me. Nagpaalam naman agad ako sa kanya pagkatapos kong magpasalamat dahil may apat na bahay pa akong bibigyan at naghihintay na rin ang pamilya ko sa akin para sa hapunan. I went to Rosella's house next. “F-u-c-k, Rosella! Get fucking lost!” Dinig kong sigaw ng isang dalaga mula sa loob ng bahay nila nang pagbuksan niya ang pinto. “Hi, Julie,” nakangiting bati niya sa akin kahit pa nakikita ko sa mga mata niyang hindi siya ayos.

NASA SECOND FLOOR kami ng mga anak ko at tinuturuan ko silang gumawa ng assignment nila. This was an empty space just across the twins' rooms which we turned into a little corner for them to rest and study. May mababang study table roon na nakapatong sa carpet. May sofa bed din saka isang cabinet at telang duyan na madali lang ligpitin. Pero ang pinakamagandang parte no'n ay ang horizontal and rectangular glass window kung saan namin natatanaw ang overlooking view ng downtown. This part of our house looked so calming. Nakaupo lang kami sa sahig habang tinutulungan ko silang mag-aral dahil mababa lang din iyong lamesa namin. Si Mari ay dire-diretso ang pagsagot ng assignment nila. Nagtatanong lang siya kapag may gusto siyang linawin. Ang pinaka-challenge talaga rito ay si Maki. “If I take three zebras out of five, how many are still there?” tanong ko ulit sa kanya at tinakpan pa ang tatlong zebra sa picture para mabilang

WHEN I LOOKED at our wall clock and found that it was already time for Roma's interview, I hurried to the living room and turned on the television. The twins were still in school. Kahahatid ko lang sa kanila roon at susunduin ko na naman ulit sila mamaya bago pa mag-alas dose. Umupo agad ako sa couch at hinintay ang kamerang ituon na sa kanya. I smiled when he smiled brightly at the camera. He was wearing a white tweed vest with a Chanel brooch pinned on his right chest part, and it was paired with black palazzo pants then black Chelsea boots. Iyong vest niya ay walang undershirt kaya kitang-kita iyong muscles at tattoo niya. He was also wearing a makeup and regular size hoop earrings. “Let us all welcome the fashion designer, model, and beauty mogul, Roma Buendia!” announced the host. I was all ears when the interview commenced. It was mostly about Roma being successful in fashion and

ALIW NA ALIW ako habang nagsasayaw sa pang-umagang zumba session ni Klarissa sa may plaza. Roma was left with the sleeping twins at home. I was with Rosella and Florence. Nandito rin ang mga La Vista at iba pang mga taga-ibang block para makisali sa libreng pa-zumba ngayong Sabado. Ang sarap at ang saya lang talagang umindak sa saliw ng tugtog ng kantang ‘Bongga Ka ‘day’ ng Hotdogs. “Walk to the left, then punch. Walk to the right, then punch,” malakas na turo ni Klarissa ng steppings habang nasa harap namin. “Hands on your hips and move it!” Patuloy lang kami sa pagsunod sa mga tinuturo niya. We followed her lead until we were finally finished for today. I was wearing a pink terno Adidas jacket and track pants over my white tank top. Malamig kasi madaling araw pa at nasa elevated area ang location ng Maharlika Village kaya mas pinili kong iyon ang suotin. This was also the re

Julie Tearjerky (Eraserheads Series #2) Special Chapter 03
This is a very special chapter and announcement because the next two installments under Eraserheads Series will be led by Mutyang Marikit or ‘Mari’ and Maliksing Makisig or ‘Maki’, respectively. Pag-iisipan ko pa kung anong story naman ang ibibigay ko for Kundimang Bahaghari or ‘Hari’. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of you with all my heart and soul for your gems, reviews, and ratings. I hope you could give me one as it will help me in promoting this story and in sharing my advocacy regarding gender and sexuality with a bigger and greater audience here on GoodNovel. Thank you, thank you so much! I wouldn't make it this far without all of you. This will be the last part for Julie Tearjerky but see you in my upcoming stories under the Eraserheads Series. I hop

This special chapter will chronicle the Buendia Twins' experiences while growing up. This will be told in third person point of view. MATINGKAD ANG SIKAT ng araw ng umagang iyon. Nagtipon-tipon ang mga preschool student sa gymnasium ng pribadong paaralan ng Roosevelt para sa isang espeyal na parangal. Tak... Tak... Tak... Iyan ang tunog na nililikha ng mga sapatos ni Maki na sadyang pinakintab ng kanyang ina para sa selebrasyon na iyon at sa tuwing ito ay tumatama sa sahig ng gymnasium kada padyak niya ng kanyang mga paa habang naghihintay na matawag ang pangalan niya. Ang kanyang mga kamay ay nakatuko pa sa may kandungan niya. Agad niyang tinaas ang mga iyon upang pumalakpak nang matawag na ang pangalan ng kakambal niyang siyang nangunguna sa buong klase nila. “Buendia, Mutyang Marikit D. First Honors.”

NASA MAY PATIO dining area kami at nagtipon-tipon nina Rosella at Florence kasama ng mga batang naglalaro sa may backyard. Pinagsasaluhan namin ang gawang merienda ni Rosella habang nag-uusap. “Valentine's Day na bukas!” masayang bulalas ni Rosella. “Saan ang lakad niyong mag-asawa, mga mars?” “Sa bahay lang pero sigurado akong may pa-flowers at chocolates na naman si Tommy. Kayo ba?” “May date kami ni Marvin. He said he doesn't want to make a surprise for me this year. Sinabi niya na sa akin iyong plano niya para makapaghanda na ako kasi ang pangit kong magulat, e, nananapak nang bongga. Mukhang pagod na rin si Marvin na masapak ko.” We all laughed at that and when it died down, they both turned to me. “Ikaw ba, Julie?” asked Florence. “Hindi ko alam, e. Pero gusto ko sana this year, ako naman ang sumurprisa sa kay Roma.” That was

HINDI MAGAWANG ALISIN ni Roma ang titig sa susunod na aplikanteng pumasok sa opisina niya na sasalang sa interview at upang mag-apply bilang isa sa mga chemical engineer niya. “How are you? It's been a long time.” “Prince...” ang tanging nausal ni Roma. “I thought you joined the Philippine Military,” dugtong naman niya nang makabawi. Prince gave him his small boyish smile. “I didn't push through it. That's not what I want. This... is what I want.” Nakatitig lang si Roma sa mukha ni Prince. It's really been a long time since they last saw each other. They didn't even have a proper breakup. They were just taken away from each other. The changes in him were noticeable as well. He grew taller, had some stubbles, and gained more muscles, very similar to Roma right now except for the facial hair. His skin was maintained clear, smooth, and pristine. Skincare was life for Rom

ROME KNEW IN his heart that he really loved Prince, but he also couldn't deny the immense care he had for Julie. Handa siyang magpabugbog at masaksak masigurong ligtas at ayos lang ito na siyang naging dahilan nang pagkakaratay niya ngayon sa ospital. “Diyos ko, salamat Po...” usal agad ng mommy niya ang narinig niya pagdilat niya. Hawak-hawak pa nito ang rosaryong ginamit sa pagdadasal nang lumapit ito sa kanya saka hinaplos ang ulo niya. “Anak, kumusta ka na? Ano nang pakiramdam mo? Dalawang araw ka nang n-natutulog...” “My, tatawag ako ng nurse,” paalam naman ng kuya niyang si Philip bago lumabas ng kwarto nila. “T-Tubig po...” “Nauuhaw ka ba? Sandali lang. Heto na, heto na.” Agad-agad naman siyang pinaupo saka inalalayan ng ina niya sa pag-inom ng tubig. “Anak, huwag mo na ulit gawin iyon, please.”

This is the first part of the epilogue, and this will be told in Roma's point of view in third person. Words are not enough to express how grateful I am that you have stumbled and have became an important part of Julie and Roma's adventures and misadventures since high school to their lives overseas and back to the Philippines where they raised their own modern unconventional family and sort out what they truly mean to each other. I hope you bring with you the lessons you have gotten from here about life, love, faith, and most especially about gender and sexuality. Respect everyone and never lose faith. God bless!♡ BATA PA LAMANG si Rome, ang junior ng OFW na si Borromeo Buendia, ay alam at ramdam na niyang may espesyal sa kanya. He was also very vocal with it towards his family who never failed to support him in anyway they can. Tumunog ang bell, hudyat nang pagsisimula ng unang klase. Mabibilis na yapak ng mga

WARNING: This chapter contains scenes not suitable for readers under 18 years of age. Reader discretion is advised. I JUST FOUND Roma and I in our bed sharing another round of intimate moment. Patagilid at parehong hubad kaming dalawa na nakahiga ngayon sa kama. He was hugging me tightly with his left arm while he was also moving quickly in and out of me. Nakatanday naman ang isang binti niya sa akin habang patuloy siya sa mabilis na paggalaw. I kept meeting him, too. Ginalaw niya iyong kanang braso niyang inuunan ko upang igiya ako palingon sa kanya sa likuran ko. When I turned to face him, he instantly sealed my mouth with his tongue and hot kisses. “Ah...” I moaned in between our kisses, especially when I felt his thumb and index fingers toying with my already hard nipples. Mula sa pagkakayakap sa akin ay binaba niya ang kaliwang braso niya at kamay sa mas

PINUNTAHAN NAMIN NI Roma ang Pamilya Escobar sa ospital nang makapag-ayos na kami. We left the kids under Lilo's watch. Tumayo agad si Klarissa pagkakita niya sa aming papalapit sa kanya saka kami sinalubong. “Kumusta na si Tito Mon?” I asked. “Ayos na siya sa awa ng Diyos.” She turned to Roma, her eyes were now tearful. “Roma, maraming-maraming salamat talaga sa pagliligtas sa kanya.” Roma caressed her arm to soothe her as he gave her one thoughtful smile. “It's okay, Issa. Huwag ka nang mag-alala sa mga gagastusin niyo. I already contacted Marvin's construction company as well to fix your house as soon as possible.” “Roma, maraming-maraming salamat talaga sa lahat pero... matatagalan pa siguro bago kami makapagbayad sa iyo...” “Huwag kang mag-aalala sa bayad. It can always wait but I'm not asking you to pay me for it, okay? I just really wanted to

THE MAHOGANY GANG clapped, cheered, and teased us because we were making such a scene on stage. Agad kong pinunasan ang mga luha ko habang marahang naghahalakhakan kami ni Roma. I called Klarissa next because I was her secret Santa. Tuwang-tuwa naman siya nang hindi lang ang regalo ko ang binigay ko kundi pati na rin iyong mamahaling sapatos na props ni Roma para sa surprise niyang ito. When everything was said and done, we proceeded and feasted on the banquet. Maganang-magana ang kain ng mga anak namin ni Roma. Pagkatapos nila ay nagpaalam naman silang maglalaro lang sa may stage. Alexa and Gelo promised and assured us that they will be watching out for all of the Mahogany kids. Sinamahan na rin sila ni Nicolette na mukhang gusto ring makipaglaro sa mga bata. Naiwan sa mahabang table kaming mga matatanda. Dylan was with us as well. Napatingin kami kay Tito Ramon nang biglang tumayo siya at tinaas ang c
