"Hoy, kanina ka pa lutang!" Puna sa akin ni Kurt na nagpagising sa akin.
Tinampal pa ako ng bakla sa magkabilang pisngi. I stopped him when his hit kind of hurt.
"Gising ako, okay?"
"Pero iyang utak mo, kanina pa nalipad, hala ka!" he accused me.
I painfully shut my eyes closed and tried bringing my senses back. Talaga naman, Mercian. I still hadn't recovered from the scene I watched earlier. Maga-alas otso na ngunit ang isipan ko ay tila naiwan kaninang tanghali.
"Bakit, anong nangyari?" Kurt asked me.
"You won't believe it," I said instead.

Lover of Mine Chapter 8
Chapter 8 | Desire Kinain ko ang jolly hotdog habang wala si BJ. Hindi ko na inisip pang tumigil upang uminom o huminga, mabilis ko itong inubos upang maka-alis na rin agad ng fast food. I originally planned to stay and review while eating but since the man I saw half naked sat with me in one table, I decided to sacrifice my plan and leave afterward. Hindi ko sigurado kung babalik pa ang mokong ngunit hiniling kong sana ay huwag na. Wala na akong mukha pang ipakikita, tanging pride ko na lamang ang matayog at hindi nagpapatalo. I secretly looked for BJ among the crowd. Siya na ang um-order, teka? Ngayon pa lang siya o-order? Kung gano'n, anong ginawa niya rito, pinanood akong magmukhang tanga?

Chapter 9 | Act When you less expected on things, you wouldn't be disappointed when it really didn't happen. Danica, on the other hand, expected her kuya Marcus to show out anytime soon... yet no one distracted my peace. My classes for the week ended and my issue around the campus somehow lessened. One day, the judgemental eyes weren't staring at me anymore... I wasn't sure how it happened, their sudden change of mood quite felt suspicious. I didn't bother on that part anymore, the exam week was about to come and I needed to prepare for the major subjects. "Hindi ka uuwi ngayong weekend?" my mother called me, five in the Saturday morning.

Chapter 10 | Smile Honestly, I wasn't sure where our act of being natural would go far. Being in front of BJ was enough to intimidate me, imagine adding four you'd get a total of five... five hot yet calm men. Their manly figures occupied the free table with eight chairs. They were sitting far from each other yet stood up when they saw us nearing. "Dito ka na lang," a guy commanded another. "Sila na riyan, sa gilid ka na lang ni Jaren, Verge," Marcus told in a casual tone. Thankfully, Nemo stopped crying when Kurt lifted him up earlier. Nemo was now looking curiously at the men in front while unconsciously biting his fingertip

Chapter 11 | Humiliate Ikatlong araw na ng grupo sa aming karindirya at sa loob ng mga nagdaang araw ay halos hindi na nabakante ang alinman sa mga upuan ng aming kainan. I wasn't sure if they promoted this place to gain more customers or they were just really eye catching. Most of our customers yesterday were girls, both average kind and rich-just imagine that... some really went here to just see the five. I couldn't say anything harsh about it though. Out of all people, ako ang pinakanakikinabang sa biglaang lago ng karindirya sapagkat ako ang anak ng may-ari. Tanghali nang medyo nakaluwag kami sa dami ng gawain. Wala ng niluluto pa at pinapa-ubos na lamang ang mga hinaing pagkain. Nanay Feran was the one in charge serving the foods from the counter while Verge, Jaren and Marcus delivered. Sina Cadne at Daniel naman ang tagalinis ng mga lamesa pati na rin tagahatid ng mga husagin sa kusina. Kasama ko naman si Kurt sa kusina upang maghugas ng

Chapter 12 | Wait This was the longest working day we ever experienced. Typically, we'd close the store by six or seven of the evening but tonight, the clock struck at ten, almost eleven, when we decided to clean and leave. Bitbit ang huling itim na plastic trash bag, tamad akong naglakad palabas ng kusina upang itapon ito sa tamang basurahan sa labas. Tahimik na ang lugar, umuwi na rin ang mga kalalakihan at tanging kami na lamang ni Kurt ang naiwan sa gabing ito. Rinig mula sa yerong bubong ang bawat ritimong gawa ng ulan na mas nagpasimangot sa akin. "Bakit ngayon ka pa bumuhos?" aking reklamo na tila ba naiintindihan ako ng ulan. I groaned as I was nearing the front door but

Chapter 13 | VulnerableEarlier this morning, I received a text from Kurt. He informed me that he already arrived in our store and that the research boys were there with him as well.The weather cooperated today as if the sky didn't cry last night. The sun was up the moment I prepared myself. I kept on checking my outfit in front of the human sized mirror. There was nothing special or different on my clothes, but I couldn't help but to feel anxious.Wala namang surprising sa suot ko, plain rust orange t-shirt lang na naka-tuck in sa aking high waist maong shorts, then a pair of black FILA shoes to complete my look. Siguro naman hindi na ako mababastos sa ganito, 'no?For the last time, I checked myself in front of the mirror. I persua

Chapter 14 | Difficult "Para namang hindi mo ako kaibigan, Ian!" Kung may option lang talaga akong hindi makinig kay Kurt ay matagal ko na iyong ni-activate. Kahapon pa niya ako kinukulit na magkwento tungkol sa "bonding" daw namin ni Marcus dahil parang bigla kaming naging close pagdating sa karinderya. Sinabi ko naman sa kanyang tiningnan lang namin 'yong bahay at kumain kami sabay ng breakfast pero hindi ko na ibinahagi pa ang parteng niyakap ko siya. Hindi naman lahat ng bagay ay kailangan kong sabihin kay Kurt pero napaka-persistent niya lang talaga as a chismosa. "Nakwento ko na sa 'yo, ha? Iyon lang naman ang nangyari," iritado kong sabi.

Chapter 15 | Boyfriend Tulad lamang ng nakaraang araw ang kaganapan ngayong Sabado. Sinimulan namin ang araw sa pagbubukas ng karinderya at pag-aayos ng mga lamesa. Bumalik na sa trabaho si Nay Feran kaya siya ang nagluto ng mga paninda habang kami naman ni Kurt ang naghanda ng mga plato. Pansin ko nga sa research boys ay para bang nasanay na sila rito sa amin. Hindi ko na kailangan pang sabihan sila oras-oras sa mga dapat gawin, mabilis silang natuto at naka-adapt sa sistema namin kaya naman ay walang hirap din sila sa kanilang ginagawa. Masaya rin silang kasama lalo na tuwing break time at kumakain kaming lahat ng sabay. Marami kaming nakuhang impormasyon tungkol sa kanilang kurso at mga kwentong umiikot sa kanilang buhay kaya n

Lover of Mine Epilogue 3
Epilogue 3 | #LOMEpilogue3 I went back to our condo the same night with a broken heart and a blank mind. I thought I couldn't feel pain anymore after everything I'd gone through, but the pain caused by Mercian was far more excruciating than any hurt I'd felt. Gaano man ako nasaktan sa mga sinabi ni Ian kanina, hindi ko pa rin magawang magalit at sisihin siya sa biglaang desisyon. Inisip ko na baka pagod lang siya at siguro nga'y may hindi siya naunawaan sa akin na dapat kong linawin sa susunod naming pag-uusap. Kailan naman kaya dadating ang araw na iyon kung sinabi niya nga kaninang huwag ko na siya muling balikan? Hindi ako mapapakaling hindi maayos ang problema naming 'to. Sa dami ng hawak kong responsibilidad, siya lang ang siguradong hindi ko kayang bitawan. Kilala ko si Ian at kung inaamin niya nga ang mga sinabi niya kanina ay

Epilogue 2 | #LOMEpilogue2 “What?” I unintentionally raised my voice, which made my parents’ eyes widen. My father then continued what he was saying after a minute of silence, “We’re enrolling Minah to a public school in Marikina. It’s not far from here and she has her own driver to take her there every day—” “That’s not the point, Pa. Why do you suddenly decide to enroll her there? Maraming mas magagandang paaralan dito sa Manila. Don’t you think it’s better to enroll her in Syru, too, so that Trojan can also look out for her?” “She doesn’t want to study there,” mom said. I rolled my eyes. “How did you know that? Tinanong niyo ba siya? Or is this because of Abuela’s never-ending hatred towards her? Are you enrolling her in a public school be

Epilogue 1 | #LOMEpilogue1 “Hoy, si Lucre ba ‘yon?” “Huh, saan?” I lowered my head a bit and walked faster so they wouldn't catch up with me. When I heard their voices becoming louder, I tightened my grip on the book I was holding. “Sige na, tanungin niyo na! Papalayo na siya, oh!” A guy’s voice convinced one of his girl friends he was with. “Bahala na nga!” Someone was brave enough to call my name despite the chance that I wouldn’t look back. “Lucre!” My shoulders fell as I let out a deep sigh. I knew why they called, and if it wasn't my time to read, I might have considered playing with them. I moved my body slightly to the side to acknowledge the
Lover of Mine Chapter 40
Chapter 40 | Best Years Tinanghali na ako ng gising kinabukasan dahil nilubos talaga namin ni Kurt ang kumustahan kagabi. Sa isang malaki at sikat kaming club nagtungo kasama si Marcus dahil gusto ni Kurt iyong lugar na pwede siyang mag-relax and at the same time magwalwal. We rented a private and VIP area for us so that we could spend more quality time together. We talked more about Kurt's work and life because he had me curious back when he mentioned Janella Tolentino proposed to him. Like for real? Si Janella na dating may gusto kay Marcus? Si Janella na sobrang taas ng confidence at sobrang yaman… magp-propose kay Kurt? Hindi rin maintindihan ni Kurt ang trip ng babaeng iyon kaya hindi niya ako nasagot kung alam ba n
Lover of Mine Chapter 39
Chapter 39 | FlightKailanman ay hindi ko kinonsidera ang sarili ko bilang mapangarap na tao. Naalala ko noong grade ten kami at paparating na ang katapusan ng taon na iyon, inutusan kami ng aming adviser na magsulat sa one fourth piece of paper ng first choice of senior high school strand na gusto namin kasunod ng second at third choice kung mayroon.Sinabi niya namang para lang iyon sa personal niyang survey dahil gusto niya raw malaman ang bawat choices namin. It was a harmless task, but I had a difficult time writing my choices on the paper. Wala pa naman talaga kasi akong concrete plan para sa sarili ko. Marami na akong na-research at narinig na career suggestions mula kay mama pero hindi ako nagka-interes sa kahit ano roon.Noong mga panahong iyon ay napasabi na lang ako ng, “Gusto ko na lang maging tamb

Chapter 38 | BeginningMarcus and I made the decision to leave their mansion after several days of contemplation and double-checking. Marcus had a separate condo in Manila different from before, where we chose to stay for the next succeeding days. I easily agreed on his suggestions because I also believed those were the best to follow this time.We bought a lot of food supplies and other necessities needed at home. The condo he got was larger than the one we'd stayed in before, and it was closer to the establishments. For the past few days, we had been preoccupied with arranging our belongings. Today's agenda was different. We finished organizing and cleaning the entire condo to our liking. We had planned to go somewhere today... and have a picnic there.“Nandiyan na rin ba sa bag ‘yong blanket?&rd
Lover of Mine Chapter 37
Chapter 37 | BedI'd been enduring the same pain, violence and regrets for the past two years. I was trapped inside a four-walled room that almost made me forget about the outside world and the beauties of life. I had been alone with my own shadow since the tragedy ended.No one could deny that I had a tough time, and I had the worst of it. There were no days, just lonely and terrifying nights. I spent the past years blaming everything to myself and embracing the coldness of my own heart. The emptiness inside me felt impossible to be filled again.I never expected that the day I would see the sunlight and feel the warm breeze of a peaceful morning would eventually come. The storm was too long for me, and I'd been floating alone on my small boat with insufficient equipment to help me sail properly. The storm had been

Chapter 36 | Home“Ano?” naguguluhan kong tanong kay Marcus.Noong una ay nagduda na rin ako kung totoo ba talagang sila ang tunay na pamilya ni Arist dahil bukod sa malayo ang pisikal na katangian ni Arist sa kanilang ama ay hindi ko rin madama ang dugong Zorron sa kanya. Wala akong sapat na ebidensya upang patunayang hindi siya Zorron ngunit malakas ang kutob ko noong parang may mali.At hindi nga ako nagkamali!Kalaunan ay tinanggap ko na lang ang mga nangyari dahil napansin kong seryoso talaga silang lahat tungkol sa pagiging half-brother ni Arist ngunit… ang marinig ang katotohanang ito galing kay Marcus mismo ay nagpatunay na tama ang hinala ko noong una.Bakit nila nilinlang si Arist?
Lover of Mine Chapter 35
Chapter 35 | Confess If offered the opportunity to not wake up again, I would gladly accept it. I had already given up everything as my eyes began losing their vision as the wildfire around me burned furiously. I was ready to leave everything behind once and for all, including the memories I held dearest. That night, I realized that this was the end of my life. I was so disheartened to see another day after all those sacrifices. Para akong harap-harapang niloko ng kapalaran. Parang tanga, handa na nga akong mawala ng tuluyan sa mundo tapos matatagpuan ko ang aking sarili na nasagip mula sa apoy na gano’n kalakas? Ni wala man lang akong nakuhang galos, sugat o pinsala sa katawan na akala mo ay wala ako noong nangyari ang
