2024-10-29 19:42:56Kraius was at the center of the ring punching hard the bag that was in front of him. He was all sweat but he didn't care. His endurance was steady. His muscles was protruding in every move he made while his reflexes was fast, as if he was on a fight. Throwing hard and strong punches that made the bag bounced to its further distance.
He needed some steam to release his frustration from all the fucked up things that had happened to him, and boxing was one of his hobby aside from Mixed Martial Arts. He was skilled and trained for his self defense aside from the fact that it was his way of maintaining his body healthy and his physique to be always in good shape.
Kraius looked serious an deadly when his phone suddenly rang. His attention instantly shifted to it that the bag hit his face hard. He cursed because of the impact it did and punched it after. Para bang sa pamamagitan niyon ay mawawala ang hapdi na ginawa ng bag sa gwapo nitong mukha.

"Hindi ba pwedeng pass muna ako?""Rhez! Sumeksi ka lang naging ganiyan ka na! Alalahanin mo, sampung taon kang absent sa gatherings natin!" eksaheradong naman ng kabilang linya.Napakamot si Rhezi sa ulo. She even pouted her lips and frowned. She was caught off guard from what Tin said. Totoong matagal itong hindi nakasama sa mga kaibigan dahil na rin sa paglalayas nito. She decided to tell no one even her friends of where she really was. Maging ang pagkakaroon ng anak ng dalaga ay hindi alam ng mga ito.Rhezi sighed and mumbled, "Sige na nga. Ngayon lang ito, okay?""Yes!" masayang sagot naman ng nasa kabilang linya.Walang nagawa si Rhezi kundi ang pumikit na lamang at mapahilot sa sentido nang matapos ang tawag mula sa kaibigan. She agreed on going to a party with them. A surprise party for Mina to be exact in a high end Club in BGC.She sighed and got up f

Kraius was eyeing Rhezi. Ni hindi nito nilulubayan ng tingin ang dalaga habang naglalakad papalayo dito. Mariin din ang bawat titig nito sa papalayong pigura habang kuyom ang mga kamao. He was mad. Kitang-kita iyon sa awra nito.He flinched when someone snaked in his arm. Kaagad na naningkit ang mga mata nito sabay baling ng tingin dito. He instantly saw his current hook up. Ngiting-ngiti ito habang pulang-pula ang labi dahil sa lipstick na gamit."You seemed angry. May problema ba?" tanong nito.Umiling si Kraius at hindi na nagtangkang sagutin ito. Sumimangot naman ang kasama nito at iginaya na lamang ang binata paupo sa lounge na kinaroroonan ng mga kaibigan. They occupied the VIP area and all were obviously enjoying."Hi, K!" bati ng mga ito. Tumango lamang si Kraius at hindi na sinagot pa ang mga ito.Nang tuluyang maupo ang binata ay agad na inilibot nito ang paningin sa buong lugar.

They were both out of control. Hindi na halos malaman ni Rhezi kung paano narating ng mga ito ang bahay ni Kraius sa South Ridge Village. Basta't ang alam ng dalaga ay umuo siya sa binata kung saan man siya dadalhin nito.Walang sinayang na sandali ang dalawa nang makapasok sa bahay ng binata. Kaagad na sinibasib ng halik ni Kraius si Rhezi nang maisarado nito ang pinto. Mabilis rin ang mga kilos ng binata na binuhat ang dalaga at isinandal sa dingding ng sala nito.They were both kissing each other hungrily. Ni hindi na nagawang buksan ni Kraius ang ilaw sa bahay nito. Rhezi wrapped her legs on Kraius waist while his strong arms was supporting her so that she would not fall. Habang ang mga kamay naman ng dalaga ay mahigpit na nakapulupot sa leeg nito."Ohh.." Rhezi moaned in between their kisses. Habang bahagya naman kinagat ni Kraius ang labi nito upang tuluyang mapasok ng dila nito ang bibig ng dalaga. When she mo

Lumapat na lamang ang likod ni Rhezi sa kama nang hindi nito namamalayan. She opened her eyes to see Kraius and his lustful and intense gaze bore into her. Ni hindi man lamang ito kumukurap. Puno ng intensidad ang mga mata nito habang nakatanghod at maingat na inilalapag ang dalaga.Rhezi's soft hair scattered on top of the bed. She was like portrait in her facade. Her pointed nose that was always look proud and her tantalizing eyes that were paired with thick eyelashes. It complimented her pouty lips and her small face. She was undeniably gorgeous while underneath Kraius' perfect body."Do you know what day is it today?" Kraius asked in a husky voice that sent shiver to Rhezi's being. Para itong nang-aakit habang nasasamyo ng dalaga ang bango ng hininga nito. Naghahalo ang alak at menthol doon. Nakakahalina at nakakadarang. Nakakanginig ng laman maging ng mga tuhod."I d-don't know," Rhezi stuttered. She bit her lower lip

Rhezi was busy preparing food for her kids when someone hugged her from behind. Mabilis na nabitawan ng dalaga ang kutsilyong hawak nito nang maramdaman ang kirot na likha niyon sa hintuturo nito. Kasabay ng pagkagulat ng dalaga ay ang hapding nadarama dahil sa nangyari."You're very occupied. Anong nangyayari sa'yo?" Jericho asked curiously. Mabilis din nitong dinaluhan ang dalaga at itinapat ang hintuturo nito sa gripo."N-Nothing. I am just tired. I work too much, lately." Rhezi shook her head. She couldn't stare at Jericho in the eye. She wasn't a fan of lying, but she felt she had to. Hindi pa rin lubos maisip ng dalaga ang mga nangyari isang linggo na ang nakakaraan.It was already a week when that fateful night happened. One week since she gave up herself to Kraius again. Isang linggo na rin nitong pinapagalitan ang sarili ngunit alam rin nitong hindi na maibabalik ang lahat. Higit sa lahat, isang linggo na rin mula

"Saan ba kasi tayo pupunta?" Rhezi asked. Nakaupo ang dalaga sa kama habang pinagmamasdan si Jericho na inaasikaso ang tatlong anak."Kakain 'di ba?" pamimilosopo naman nito.Napairap si Rhezi sa kawalan. Kahit kailan hindi sumagot ng matino ang lalaki dito. Minsan naman seryoso ang lalaki na hindi rin nito maintindihan. Ganunpaman, ipinagkikibit-balikat na lamang ito ng dalaga kaysa ang kainisan. Jericho was good to her and to her kids, it was all that matter."Saan nga?!" ungot pa ng dalaga."Are you angry Momma?" pag-agaw ni Dos sa pansin ni Rhezi. Sa tatlo, ito ang unang natapos sa pagbibihis. Wearing his usual khaki shorts and printed polo shirt, while his hair was tied up in a bun which made him looked like a child star idol in hollywood.Rhezi sighed and bowed a little. She smiled lightly to the child and touched his little face. "No. I'm not angry handsome," she replied.

Hindi kayang ipaliwanag ni Kraius ang nadarama habang nakamasid sa mga kasama sa iisang mesa. Katabi ni Rhezi ang tatlong anak habang katabi naman ng lalaki si Jericho. It was the most awkward dinner that they had experienced. Kraius deadly stare was evident. However, whenever the man stared to the three kid in front of him, his expression softened."Mr. Handsome, thank you for bringing Dos to us," Roscoe asked. The boy was looking at Kraius intently.Tila hinaplos ng isang anghel ang puso ni Kraius dahil sa sinabi ng bata. His attention shifted to the kid then he smiled. He was overmelmed all of the sudden from the smiling face of him. It was surely genuine and pure while his eyes were beaming."It's okay. Dos is my friend. Right Dos?" Kraius asked. He smirked when he saw Rhezi's horror expression but deep in his heart he was mad at her."Can we be friends too?" Tres happily asked.

Rhezi heaved a heavy sigh. Her eyes pointed directly to the mirror in front of her. Contentment and satisfaction was evident in her when she hovered herself up and down. Wearing her gold sequine long gown with a long slit in front, she was definitely gorgeous. It was a V neck sleeveless that her beautiful collarbone was showing, down to her cleavage."You're beautiful, Baby."Rhezi smiled. She instantly saw her father walking towards her. She looked back and approached him. He was smiling too while looking gorgeous on his pair of Gucci Mohair Tuxedo. Her father undeniably screamed power and confidence.Her father Hernan Lagdameo was on his fifties. He was the heir of Lagdameo Hotels and the only man in their four siblings. Isa rin ito sa nangunguna pagdating sa business world sa Pilipinas. Nagkalat sa buong bansa ang branches ng negosyo ng pamilya dahil dito. The reason why she lived comfortably before she ran away.

Rhezi instantly closed her eyes as Kraius lips touched hers. Hindi kayang ipaliwanag ng dalaga ang pakiramdam na muling mahalikan nito. It has been a long time since she wished to be kissed by him.

Seven years laterWhere do broken hearts go?Iyon ang laging tanong ni Kraius sa sarili ilang taon na rin ang nakararaan. Love and it's consequences. Was it really have to be so painful and lonely that he couldn't even determine why he was still breathing? Was it really have to be unfair that it still kept on hurting him like hell?Habang nakatanaw sa malawak na karagatan ng Surigao ay hindi mapigilan ng binata na mapamura nang paulit-ulit. The emptiness and torment that he was feeling was just too much that he wished to stop breathing at all. However, he also wished that the thing that was keeping him sane would grant, sooner. That the impossible would be possible.Kilala siya ng lahat bilang makulit at masayahing abogado, ngunit sa likod ng mapagkunwari niyang pagkatao ay isang walang kamatayang kahungkagan na nanirahan nang matagal na panahon sa puso nito.

Rhezi had the most beautiful dream that night. She dreamed that Kraius and her got married in private. Pawang sila lang at mga malalapit na kaibigan. It was a beach wedding and she was just wearing her usual jeans while Kraius was wearing his khaki shorts. Iyon nga marahil ang dahilan kung bakit hindi mawala sa mukha ng dalaga ang isang matamis na ngiti. It seemed true that her heart flutter in happiness.Nang tuluyang ibuka ng dalaga ang mga mata ay mas lalong naghurumentado ang puso nito. Mas lalo ring lumapad ang nakapaskil na ngiti nito sa labi nang maramdaman ang mabigat na bagay na nakadagan sa may beywang nito. Kinapa iyon ng dalaga at hinila para mas humigpit pa ang pagkakayapos nito sa kaniya. Then she turned to face him, and saw the most handsome man she had ever laid eyes on.Ang mabagal na paghinga nito ay tumatama sa mukha ng dalaga. Ngunit, hindi nito alintana iyon. She stared at him intently as if her life and death depends

Hindi sinayang ni Kraius ang sandali. He released Rhezi from his tight hug and cupped her beautiful face. There were still tears in her eyes and he didn't waste time to remove it. Pinunasan nito iyon gamit ang likod ng mga palad nito ng dahan-dahan. Siniguro nitong hindi na masasaktan ang dalaga sa ginagawa. Pagkatapos ay ibinaba nito ang mukha papalapit sa mukha ni Rhezi at hinalikan nito ang mga mata ng dalaga ng banayad.Ipinikit naman kaagad ni Rhezi ang mga mata nito nang maramdaman ang ginawa ni Kraius. Damang-dama ng puso nito ang ibat-ibang emosyon na nagpapahurumentado sa pagtibok niyon. Nasasaktan ito sa mga nalaman at nagsisisi rin ito, ngunit sadyang kakaiba ang hatid ng bawat mga halik ni Kraius sa mukha nito pababa sa labi.Ang banayad na pagdampi ng mga labi ng binata ay para bang sinasabing magiging maayos din ang lahat. Na hindi na dapat ito mag-alala dahil nandito ito, ipaglalaban siya nito. Na hindi na siya masasaktang m

Abala si Kraius sa pagbabasa ng papeles nang pumasok ang sekretarya nito. Kaagad ang pagbaling ng tingin ni Kraius dito habang nakakunot ang noo. Katulad ng dati, pormal na pormal pa rin ang hitsura ng sekretarya habang patuloy ang lakad nito patungo sa lamesang kinaroroonan.Nang nasa tapat na ito ng lamesa ay tumigil ito at tinaasan ng kilay ang binata. "Someone wants to talk to you Mr. Montreal," wika nito.Kraius forehead creased. Wala itong inaasahang bisita kaya't mababakas sa mukha nito ang pagtataka. He looked at his Piaget watch afterwards, and smiled lightly. He felt excited and happy at the same time. Bigla ay nawala ang nararamdaman nitong pagod mula sa maghapong pagtatrabaho.The truth was, he was very eager to went home. Ilang linggo na rin mula nang makasama nito ang mga anak, at masasabi nitong walang naging problema sa sitwasyon. Naninibago man ang mga ito sa una ngunit hindi iyon hinayaan ng binata na mag

Hindi alam ni Rhezi kung paano ito nakarating sa Monterio Hotel. Ang tanging alam ng dalaga ay gusto nitong lumayo mula sa mansion ni Jericho matapos sabihing mahal siya nito higit pa sa isang kaibigan lamang. She didn't saw that coming. Nagimbal siya sa sinabi nito kasabay noon ay ang pait ng pakiramdam na lumukob sa puso ng dalaga dahil sa panlilinlang ng taong itinuring niyang sandalan sa mahabang panahon.She never thought that Jericho would trick her like that. Paniwalang-paniwala si Rhezi na bakla ito. She was lost when he was with her. She was vulnerable and broken. She ran away after he found her. Sa sobrang sakit ng puso niya nakalimutan ng dalaga ang inis dito. Then, she ran away with him and ended all of her connection to her friends and family.Rhezi sighed as she remembered the memories. She was still unwell but she needed to keep her sane. Ilang minuto na rin itong tulala habang nakatitig sa button ng elevator sa loob ng gusa

Nakangiting tinatanaw ni Rhezi ang mga anak na naglalaro sa malawak na harden ng Bailey mansion. Dos was swimming into their huge inflatable pool while his brother's were sliding in huge slide that was connected to it. Masaya itong nagtatawanan habang nagtatapunan naman ng bubbles kung minsan."Momma!" tawag ni Dos dito.The boy was already fine and treated after Kraius offered his bone marrow for him. Matapos makumpirmang may leukemia nga ito hindi nagsayang nag oras ang binata para gawin ang dapat gawin. Sinalinan na rin ito ng dugo mula sa lalaki na ipinagpapasalamat ng dalaga. She owed him a lot even though they were still not in good terms after they devoured each other that night.It has been two months since everything happened. Two months since Kraius and her have talked about what happened from the past. Dalawang buwan na rin silang hindi nagpapansinan at kaswal lamang sa isat-isa. Dalawang buwan nang pagtanggap a

Tila itinulos sa kinatatayuan si Rhezi habang ang mga mata ay nakatuon kay Kraius na nakatitig din dito. She wanted to say words for him but her mind seemed shut that she couldn't even think straight. Hindi nito alam kung ano ang dapat na gawin o sabihin. Lalopa't mabilis din ang pagtibok ng puso nito sa hindi mawaring dahilan. Kaya sa huli, hinayaan na lamang nito ang sariling mahulog sa mga malalalim at makahulugan tingin ng binata.Ilang taon na rin mula nang huli silang magsama sa espesyal na lugar na iyon. Sabay pa ng mga itong sinulat sa pader ang mga katagang namumukod-tanging dekorasyon sa lugar. Katagang halos sambahin ni Rhezi kapag naririnig nito iyon mula sa lalaki. Katagang tanging nagniningning sa lugar.SENI SEVIYORUM"It's been a while," wika ni Kraius na nagpabalik kay Rhezi sa kasalukuyan.Rhezi blinked and shook her head. Tumango rin ito bilang pagsang-ayon sa sinabi ng binata. "Yeah," s

Tahimik na binabaybay nina Rhezi at Jericho ang daan pauwi sa Bailey mansion. Magaan at payapa ang kalsada kaya matulin ang pagpapatakbo ng lalaki habang sumusulyap paminsan-minsan sa dalaga na nakatanaw lamang sa kanilang nadaraanan.Gustong magpaliwanag ni Jericho tungkol sa nakita ni Rhezi ngunit pinigilan ito ng dalaga. She didn't want to heard a word from him not until they reached their own home. Ayaw nitong makita ng iba na hindi sila nagkakasundo. Gayunpaman, hinding-hindi nakakalimutan ang nangyaring eksena.Hasmet Montreal smirked and left after she asked the both of them. Ni hindi man lamang ito nag-abalang sumagot sa tanong ni Rhezi. Tinapik pa nito ang balikat ng dalaga at iniwan ang dalawa na tila walang pakialam. Naglakad itong tila kagalang-galang habang suot ang mamahaling coat and tie nito.Rhezi's mind was clouded with lots of thoughts. Alam ng dalaga na mayaman ang pamilya ni Jericho. They were actually
