La Cuevas #1: When the Star Falls Chapter 1
“Congratulations, Attorney Galvez.” I smiled at att Raegan Ignacio. He's one of our contract lawyers here. "You're a highly skilled lawyer who knows how to make evidence suppressed in court. You amaze me." “Thank you, Attorney.” I replied. He was also present in the court earlier to watch the final trial of my client. I just got my client acquitted, and by that, I had to overwork myself preparing for trials and cross examinations, motions, and too much stress. Dang, I feel so tired. I just want to go home to my son so I excused myself politely for I still have personal things to do. When I got into my old SUV in the parking area, I immediately dialed Yana’s number. “Ciao!” she greeted lively. “So how did the trial goes? did you win? Tell me you did!” I smiled. “I did..” “Gosh! You haven’t lost a trial before! I’m so proud of you!” I felt my heart flattered hearing her voice. She’s been my best friend since then. Though I’m six years older than her, we became close becaus

“Mierda! Can I just skip these?! It's fucking long!” Yana exclaimed pertaining to the Philippine Constitution I made her read. “No.” I firmly said. She’s a third-year student taking Political Science at the University of the Philippines. She hired me as her tutor since I also need extra income. “But I already read the Australian Constitution! Mi fa male la testa!” “You’re here in the Philippines now and that’s just the fundamentals of your course.” She’s originally from Italy but studied in Australia with the same course. "What about you? You’re supposed to teach me, why are you just writing there?" She's really like a child. "I'm writing your reviewer so you won't have to read everything you need. Shut up and read what I told you to." I’m six years older than her. I’m taking law at the UP College of Law here in Diliman just the same with her. She frowned at her beautiful face. “Non Voglio.” I can’t even understand her. I heaved a sigh and nodded before closing her

“What happened? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” I blinked when Yana clicked her fingers in front of me. “O-oh.. nothing. Where are we again?” I asked when I finally came back to my right mind. I was dumbfounded thinking about that rude pervert earlier. I just can’t believe I embarrassed myself twice in front of him. Damn it. “Hmm, é abbastanza. I’m tired!” She said as she closed her book. I creased my forehead. “Huh? No way, you can’t be lazy like that every time.” I grabbed the book from her hand to open it again. She still wasn’t familiar with the basics so she have a long way to go. And I’m her tutor so it also affects my image if she messed up. “We can continue this tomorrow, I have a party to attend!” She said. “Party?” “Sí. Par-ty.” She rolled her eyes. “Where?” Is that the party that Kate’s talking about? She stopped arranging her things. “Hm… I think it’s in RB? Not sure." I knew it. "Should I drop you off?” I just shrugged and yawned. “I’m good. Take

Days passed and my path never crossed again with Loren’s. My performance in both work and law school went well, except for the multiple attempts of guys in getting my number. The landlady also had visited me twice already. I just can’t budget my salary for my daily expenses and school. I’m thankful that she somehow understands, though. I am now here at The Lib again, and as usual, I am doing digests and lots of readings and ghostwriting for extra income. Law school is probably the most consuming time of my life. So I ought to make sure that it’s gonna be worth it in the end. I was moving on to the next case when Kate suddenly sat in front of me. “You okay?” I asked. She looked pale and her nose is reddish. “It’s so cold outside.” She muttered after sipping on my coffee. I just looked at the transparent glass wall beside me and nodded before resuming my digests. I was handwriting them because it was ordered in our memo. During my first year, my penmanship sucks so I tho

I tightened my grip on his polo because of the coldness. When he noticed that, he immediately turned off the ac. I turned my head to the window and bit my lip. When I turned to him, I saw his grip on the steering wheel tightened too, causing his veins to be more visible on his firm arms. I remember what Kate told me about veins. ‘It means they masturbate often!’ I shut my eyes hardly and shook my head. Now I can’t let his image while doing ‘it’ out of my mind! Damn it, Kate. “Are you going to work?” I opened my eyes. Wait, how did he knew I have work? And why is he here in Diliman? Does he live here? “I’ll go home first.” He nodded slowly while looking at the road. Why does he look different now from earlier? I showed him the direction to my house in Sta. Mesa, and he stopped his car in front of my apartment. “T-thanks.” I said and hurriedly held the door handle to go out but stopped when he spoke. “I’ll give you five minutes. I’ll drive you to your work.” I turned to

I'm in The Lib with Yana for our session. She’s sipping on her milk shake while I make her pointers.“Anyway, Loren asked me yesterday about you.” She said.“About me?”“Yeah, he’s my only neighbor at the 15th floor in Rockwell since that’s exclusive. He told me he has something to tell you so I gave him your name and workplace.” I stopped writing and sighed. So she's his source of information. “You told me he carried me out of the bar last time, right? Did you two talk?”I creased my forehead. “No.” I resumed writing.“Really? Anyway he wouldn’t dare to hit on you.” She remarked so I looked at her. “Duh? You’re famous in Ateneo for being a man hater!” She snapped so I unbelievably opened my mouth.“What?”“Remember the guys you’ve turned down before? Most of them are from Admu and Feu. Loren’s at the top of Admu medicine and I’m sure he’s heard about you!” She added.I transfixed my gaze and sighed in disbelief. I know I’m always grumpy, but I never thought that people would take it

"Truth or dare?" Question of the woman wearing a spaghetti strap crop top and shorts. She looks very drunk already. She was the loudest earlier and I found he very funny."Ahm .. dare!" Yana replied so they shouted.I slightly tilted my head because of the noise. "Kiss Nate!" The woman responded quickly so they all laughed.Nate is her classmate i guess, who is also a civil engineering student. "Seriously?" Yana asked with a laugh. No, girl, it's just a joke."All right! It's your birthday today and you're 20 so don't be kj!" The woman said. I think her name was Leslie.That's okay with me, Yana's at the right age but I just hope Nate doesn't expect too much because there's nothing in Yana's vocabulary to take seriously."Okay, let's go!" She said and stood up, Nate suddenly sat down and met Yana's mouth when she approached him."Ooohh!""Score!""HAHAHAHA!"I smiled and averted my eyes because they had been kissing for a long time. I caught sight of Loren who was sitting in front of

"How are you there, Celine?" My mother asked from the other line.I stirred the egg on the sardines in the pan before answering, "I'm fine here, how about you?" I asked back."We're doing fine here, too. Cole visits here often and brings us food." She answered so I nodded softly even though he couldn't see.Cole is my childhood friend in Nueva Ecija who is also studying Law now at the University of Cebu - Main Campus. We were both supposed to study here in Manila, but he didn't pass the LSAT of UP and he was lucky to pass there so he didn't go."I see. How about Gino? where is he?" I asked.Gino is my younger brother, he is only two years old because mom is still young. He was the son of her new husband, but left use too in the end. We found out the he had another family in another country. Anyway he also had no intention of holding sustaining Gino's needs so the child was not named after him. Mom was only 17 when I was born and Gino followed me when I was 24."He's already playing wi

This is the last chapter. Thank you guys for reading my flawed story. I hope you're all doing well. Keep safe and always remember to put a happy ending in your daily lives.Sincerely,Joji—————6 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDINGOh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God!"Mommy! Mommy! Look, daddy's so fast! He's gonna win!" I heard Cohen's excited voice as I shut my eyes hardly. Praying that this would end, that he'd be safe.I've always wanted to watch him compete on the track, but seeing him run his Lamborghini like a flash makes my soul almost want to come out of my body! My knees were shaking as I heard the sound of tires scrambling and people shouting his name."GO ACER !!""SHIT ACER GO FASTER !!! PLEASE FASTER!! FASTER !!""OH MY GOD, THAT'S AWESOME !!! I LOVE YOU ACER !!""ACER! ACER! ACER!""Mommy, who's Acer?" Cohen asked while tugging my left hand. I held his hand tightly while my right hand held the chest of my dress."I-it's your dad, son." I answered him, doubting if he even heard it b

I automatically lost my focus when I noticed someone from the other table staring at me.From my peripheral vision, I caught her examining my uniform and her mysteriously evident brown eyes darted on my face right after.I'm not usually intimidated with this kind of stares, may it be intentionally or not. But there's just something in her eyes that bothers me as time passes by. I couldn't contain it, I feel so uneasy.I blinked as I force myself to focus on my book, but seconds later, I found myself spacing out while blankly looking at the certain page — absolutely not absorbing anything. With that, I heaved a sigh and decided to close my book and stood up.She's now busy on her laptop. With creased forehead and emphatic closed lips, she got my attention. I quickly wrote a flirting note in a peace of a fucking paper because I don't know what the fuck has gotten into my head. I walked towards her table and shamelessly made my move."Excuse me,""Jesus!" she was obviously startled and t

"This is attorney Felasco, your former professor from Diliman."I blinked and couldn't believe I could talk to him again today."O-oh! Attorney, Oh my god, how are you?" I asked. I went into the room and went to bed."I'm fine .. I'm fine, how about you? I heard your son was shot?" He asked.I nodded, "I'm fine too, Attorney. And yes, but he's recovering now.""Good to hear that, ahm .. I called because I wanted to hand you some things."I frowned and slowly sat down in my bed. "What .. what do you mean?" I asked.He was silent for a moment and I even heard his sigh before answering. "I heard that congressman Lavarias was arrested for plunder and murder .. I have the pieces of evidence for his plunder case."My eyes widened and my chest heaved with excitement. He .. have the evidences? The one I was looking for? But why? Only daddy knows where that is! Unless he stole it from him? But does he know my dad?"I-I don't understand, Attorney, why do you have those?" I asked."Because I was

I finished my job here at the firm early so I thought I'll just fetch Cohen. I grabbed my handbag and said goodbye to Raegan."Hmm." he just nodded like a boss and I just let him. I'm used to his attitude like that.When I arrived at the Therapy Center, Cohen's session was about to end so I just waited outside with some parents."Hi, are you going to pick up Doc's son?"I turned to the woman older than me. She was wearing a long sleeve dress and was quite large in body. Her make up is also thick and her eyebrows are high."Yes." my answer. Maybe Loren is the only doctor with a child here."Oh, so I was right! that's Doc Iran's son! Why did she deny it?" She said frowning at me. I faced her and stared."What?" I could no longer contain the irritation in my voice.She was stunned and forced a smile, "Doc Iran, isn't it? Doc Loren and Iran are the parents of that handsome new boy." She even said that it was like telling me something I didn't know.I couldn’t believe so I looked at her fr

"I'm sorry, I was with my family .. yes, yes, you can just update me about the conference tomorrow .. yes, thankyou. Good night, Iran."I averted my eyes and spontaneously tightened my grip on the towel resting on me. Loren dropped the call and went to the drawer on his bed side table and inserted his cellphone there.His eyes came to me again so I stared at him. "Just get out and I'll take a shower." I said. My hair is already wet so the bed and pillow are definitely wet because I slept.He just shrugged and threw his hair back in a swift motion. Damn that. He sat down next to me to my surprise."Let me see,"My forehead furrowed."What the hell? Get out!" I spat. What the fuck is he talking about there ?! What does he think, we're back to normal ?!"Let me see, Celine. It might hurt for longer if I won't check it.""Oh no, I said I'm fine. And I'll take a shower— Fucking shit! Loren!" My eyes widened when he suddenly pulled the towel from my body.My naked body was exposed to him, e

"Good evening, sir .." I tried to maintain my posture but because of the nerve I'm feeling right now, I just couldn't.Loren's father smiled and glanced at me gently, "Celine .. you can call me dad now, we've met before." He remarked and opened his arms, encouraging me to hug him.I was surprised with the sudden gesture, but I couldn't be more glad that he actually acknowledges me until now. I smiled and hugged him before he looked down at my son who's tugging at the edge of my dress."My grandson,"He smiled wider and crouched a bit to reach Cohen, "Such a handsome kid .. your parents did really good, huh."I almost choked on my own saliva when I heard that and was accompanied by the old man's laughter. I looked at Loren behind Cohen who was just smiling and looking at his father. When he noticed that I was looking, he also turned to me and raised an eyebrow.I quickly averted my gaze and distracted myself by looking around. When dinner was ready, Lea and Sage arrived."You're late,"

"I-It's my father .." I whispered to myself, I looked up at Raegan who was just watching me seriously."It's papa," I told him.He just raised an eyebrow at me as if letting me to patch everything up. My hands trembled as I remembered what had happened before."This is the ... last case that papa handled."Raegan nodded as he folded his arms. "Late prosecutor Galvez was shot in the chest 20 years ago, right before the preliminary trial of the plunder case filed against congressman Lavarias. When the prosecutor in charge was replaced, the final trial did not take place because congressman Lavarias' name was cleared and also- the new prosecutor drops all charges against him. "My lips parted and my vision seemed to blur with the sudden formation of tears in my eyes. I didn’t expect I would know it all in one fell swoop. I am shocked by what I see, I am afraid of what I hear, and my anger overflows for no apparent reason."Tell me, attorney, has the killer of your father been caught?" He

I was stunned when I entered Cohen's room. The walls are blue and the ceiling is white. The floor is made of fine and high quality wood so I’m not afraid of Cohen’s feet getting cold every time he walks especially in the morning.There is big aircon, and big windows, but no balcony. It also has its own bathroom and wait, walk in closet? Really? Cohen doesn't seem to need it— and fuck, a built in playroom inside his room ?! This is too much!I went back to her bed and adjusted the comforter because Loren and I were definitely coming, and I wasn't wrong. The door opened and Loren entered carrying her sleeping younger version.Cohen slept in his arms. Probably tired of playing. They bonded with their father all day because Loren did not go to the hospital today. It's just that Iran occasionally calls him for reasons I don't know.By the way, isn't she his girlfriend? Did he tell him that he has a child? Didn’t they fight? Seriously, is she that understanding?I leaned over the bed so he

"Just put it there."Kyo nodded and carried some boxes of Cohen and I's belongings. He inserted it into the trunk of my SUV without speaking.Cohen was there inside and resting because he had just finished his session today at the therapy center. I still kept him going there because he needed it to be completely and immediately healed. Their nutritionist promised that such a mistake would not be repeated and we also arranged with therapists there.After Cohen's two days in a private hospital, his condition is improving so last week we went home again. Loren gave us a week before finally moving into her house here in the Royal Village as well. That's right Yana, she has a house here.He said he would renovate a room for Cohen and clean the whole house so we could only move there now.For the past week it has been every day if Loren has visited here. He was the one who almost drove Cohen to the Therapy Center because that was also where he was going. I would wake up early to prepare Coh
