My eyes are focused on Ej, na nakikipag usap sa babae na waitress sa bar. As what he said, dadalhin nya ako sa sand bar. Excited ako pero pag-dating namin ay dinagsa sya ng mga babae.I roll my eyes and heard the chuckles of the waitress who almost sat on Ej's lap now. "Sir, may order pa po ba kayo.?" she ask and I roll my eyes, again. Ang harot lang, sarap tampalin ng bote ng brandy."Umalis ka nalang, dami mo arte babae ka. Ihulog kita dyan," I whisper before drinking the brandy na kanina ko pa iniinom.Tumawa naman si Ej sa sinabi ko, tinignan ko din ito ng masama, nag-panting ang tenga ko ng madininig ko ang binulong nung babae."Ang yabang, maputi lang naman." Tinignan ako mula ulo hanggang paa. I smile sweetly bago tumayo.I start looking at her face and memorizing every single detail of it. "At least I am Del Russo, how about you? Anong maipag-mamalaki mo ha, tanginaka?" She is about to say something when I feed her with my hand, tinampal ko ng malakas ang pisngi saka tinulak
After that night, halos lumpuhin ako ni Ej, it's a good thing na mahimbing ang tulog nito. Matapos ko maisend ang emails sa mga partner ng pamilya ni Leto, the news start to spread like a wild fire. I did pay one of the publisher to expose Leto's infidelity while he is my Fiance. Media is harashing him and his lovely wife. I just bring hell to his life, he deserve every single time na kinakawawa sila sa social media.Paunti-unti silang binibitawan ng mga partners nila. Wala nang mas sasaya pa saakin ngayon, habang nasa taas ako, pinapanood ko silang mahulog at madapa. Gumapang sa lupa. He deserve it, every single time of it.Sumandal ako sa shivel chair ng opisina sa isla at binuksan ang tv. The news, sobrang init na balita ngayon.I can't help but to laugh. Sumimsim sa baso na may lamang alak. This is not the end of my revenge for him, kulang pa iyan sa lahat ng sakit at kahihiyan na ginawa nya saakin.Gusto ko gumapang sya pabalik saakin, hindi makakatiis si Leto, alam ko na hindi
"Ej, ano ba naman yan!" reklamo ko habang hindi ako makagalaw sa kinahihigaan ko. He's trying to stop me na mag-lulumabas ngayon. He is so clingy din, halos ayaw humiwalay saakin. That is why I am trying best na lumayo sa kanya ngayon."No hun, dito lang ako. No one can stop me." He show his lips na nag pout at binaon sa leeg ko ang muka nya.I giggle and try my best to resist. But he is so strong. At ang bango pang nilalang kaya nag-tatalo ang isip ko kung aalis ba ako dito o hindi.Last last time pa nag-sset ng date si Hestia, it's july now and maybe pwede akong bumalik sa metro para maayos ang trabaho na naiwan ko sa company, marami din akong pending na trabaho sa company. Kuya Mage will be mad at me kapag inabot pa yon ng debut ni Lesiah.Ayoko din na mag-tampo ang kapatid ko saakin, kahit na may mga bagay na hindi na maitatama dahil sa pag-kakamali ng nakaraan ay hindi ibig sabihin non na kailangan nyang madamay doon.Lesiah is my half sister, hindi sya anak ni Papa, but that i
After I answer that call sa phone ni Ej, umalis na agad ako. Halos maibato ko ang phone nya. Mabuti nalang at nakita ko na ang sundo, nagising si Ej sa ingay ng helicopter. Nanakbo ako ng wala sa oras at hindi suot ang takong ko, mabuti at may driver din na sumundo saakin. Salamat sa panginoon, at mahal padin ako ng magulang ko.It makes me feel nervous, pano ako mag-papaliwanag kila Mama at Papa. I know that they are waiting for me to come home. Lagot ako, nauna pang ibalita sa TV at hindi ko sila nasabihan agad.At alam ko din na against sila sa pag-papahirap ko sa angkan ni Leto, kasalanan nya yon. Sana naisip nya bago nya ginawa diba."Salamat manong, antayin mo nalang ako dito." Hinigpitan ko ang strap ng YSL stilettos ko at binuksan ang pinto ng kotse. I will meet Hesti, a small date at get together. Nung June pa sya nag-sabi and busy ako non sa pang-huhuli ng manlolokong jakuts.I saw Hestia. Kumakaway sa kinatatayuan ko at papalapit saakin. May dalang hand bag at naka shades
I glare at the employee na nasa parking lot ngayon habang kalagitnaan ng trabaho. Nasa building ako ngayon, para kumuha ng mga papeles na kailangan ng pirma ko, Kuya Mage will be mad at me kapag nalaman na nakauwi ako sa Manila tapos hindi ko man lang binawasan ang trabaho na dapat ay matagal nang tapos.Kumunot ang noo ko at binuksan ang pinto ng kotse ko, nawala ng parang bula yung ibang empleyado na kanina ay nasa parking lot.May kalalagyan talaga sila kapag nalaman ko mga pangalan nila. Sinuswelduhan sila tapos nandito lang sila sa parking lot. Ang kakapal ng muka!Lumakad ako papunta sa entrance at binati ako ng guard, dumiretsyo ako sa office ko at bumungad doon ang mga tambak na papers. Damn it, linis yon ng iniwan ko tapos ganyan na agad."Damn you Leto." Hinablot ko agad ang frame na nasa lamesa ko. Binalibag ito. That is the picture of him, ganyan katindi pag-mamahal ko sa kanya. Even my wallet. Andoon si Leto."Ah, not again. Don't cry, come on!" I wipe my tears away and
I look at the place at ang mga tao doon ay naka maayos na uniform. The smell of the atmosphere is like sex is all around the place."Ma'am, welcome po sa Lustful Fantasy." Nag-bow ito saakin at dinala ako sa sofa at nag-labas sila ng folder.I smile at nilapag ang wallet at mga susi ko sa table. Sumandal ako at inantay na may staff na lumapit saakin. Tinext ako ni Ej at hinahanap kung nasaan ako ngayon. He is being possessive now, hindi ko maintindihan sa sarili ko kung natutuwa ba ako na ang possessive nya o maiinis. I am new to this, kasi never ko naranasan ang mga ginagawa saakin ni Ej.Leto always let me do what I want, to the point that he always leave me at the place where he left me all alone leaving me at the chaos that he supposed to be my soldier. But in the end i am the one who's fighting for my own."Bwiset talaga, hanggang dito ba naman," asik ko saka binaling ang paningin ko sa paligid. I just heard some moans sa malapit saakin.May umupo na sa harapan ko at nag-umpisan
Nataas ang kilay ko habang ang mga tingin sa akin ng mga tao ay para bang may nagawa akong masama sa kanila.I flip my hair and smirk, mag-lunch kami ni Yhra ngayon. Nauna syang umuwi ng pinas noong nakaraan dahil sa kailangan sya ng tatay nya dito.Naalala ko nanaman nung iniwan nya ako sa restaurant at wala akong pambayad. Kaya hindi na ako pumayag na sunduin nya ako, tangina naman kasi. Mag hihirap ako sa kagagahan nya.Tumaas naman ng kilay ko ng makita ko nang nakaupo si Yhra doon at nainom ng juice.Binilisan ko ng lakad at pinag-buksan ako ng guard ng pinto. Marahan akong lumapit kay Yhra at hindi nya alam na andoon na ako sa likod nya. Hiniklat ko ang buhok nyang mukang bagong kulay at pabrazilian. "Alam mo napaka sama talaga ng ugali mong tao ka." Yhra rolled her eyes and hinaplos ang buhok nito na hiniklat ko."Mas masama ang ugali mong babae ka. Iniwan mo ako sa restaurant ng wala akong kapera-pera." Hinatak ko ang upuan at umupo doon. Nilapag ang LV bag ko sa tabing upuan
"I am not drunk Leto, stop dragging me into this shit again!" sigaw ko habang pinapahid ang pawis sa gilid ng noo ko at marahan nya akong tinitignan ngayon."Look how miserable you are now, thana. Nung iniwan kita hindi ka naman ganyan!" he hissed and I can't help but to laugh sarcastically and roll my eyes."Seriously, you have guts to said that shit to me?" Pinagpag ko ang damit ko at inalis ang alikabok na nasa laylayan ng damit ko dahil sa alikabok na nasandalan ko sa parking lot."When you left me, miserable na ako. Also, don't you dare to say that shit to me again. Dahil ikaw naunang nang-gago saakin. I gave my all to you, kahit na para akong tanga na di makakilos dahil I depend myself to a fucking jerk like you, I still done that! " inis na sigaw ko at sumandal sa kotse."Akala ko mahal mo ako, I gave all. Sinunod ko mga payo saakin na alam kong walang kakwenta kwenta. Sinunod ko utos ng lahat, kahit ng magulang mo. I've been a good girl to all of you, tapos ganito ang binalik
Navi and I are sitting now and waiting for the attorney he hired for the case. There is an arrest warrant, and the police are currently looking for the manager. Today the attorney will talk to us about the case, and the police are also going to our house now."I'm nervous, Navi," I said, looking at Navi. My hands are sweating, and I feel like it's my fault. I might lose the case because Mama didn't respond and didn't want to talk to anyone; she didn't show up at home for several days."Why, there's nothing to be afraid of, baby. You are innocent, and you will win the case, that's for sure. Since he ran away with the money, the amount of evidence will say that he cheated and intended to run away with your money. So calm down, okay?" Navi caressed my hand and held it tight.I calmed down and smiled, leaning my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes for a moment and took a deep breath. "Thank you; you are by my side while I am struggling with my situation right now. I feel safe and okay,
"Finish it too, Kourtney; you need to finish it now because we need it later." The folders fell in front of me, and the employee who was with me in my OJT today gave me a silly smile.I feel from the start that they don't like me, and it makes me feel uncomfortable. The company that bought our property, my current employer, is also stupid. The day he greeted the students and the big smile of Mr. Cruz to meBut his employees, especially the women, hate me. The work they leave behind is terrible, and I have almost exceeded the time allotted to me."Yes, I'll bring it later." I put the folders aside, and he looked at me before turning away. I dropped my back on the chair and stood up. It's been a long time; my lunch break is later.I stood up and took my pouch. I walked because I stepped on a bump, and I have a wound on my foot now."I'm only on a fifteen-minute break," I promised, and they just shut me up. I passed them and carried my pouch. I'm going to the company's smoking area, so I
When I got out of bed, I had a dragging sensation, and I knew I had school the next day, but I didn't feel like participating in our ojt. Drinking and getting drunk is my preferred activity."Kourtney!" When I turned to face the door, it opened with a warning from my mother, who looked quite irate and gave the impression that she was about to smack me at any moment. He threw the statement of account on the table and was visibly upset as he did so.This indignant remark and me spreading my blanket now: "You sold a building but no money entered my account; did you cheat me?" "Mom, the hospital costs for Papa have been paid. I also paid my tuition fee," I added, as his trembling fist smacked the paper across my face.If you spent it at school, that's perfectly OK; there's no reason for you to spend it with your dad. He is going to pass away; are you willing to spend any more money? My hair was smoothed back, and my shoulders were dropped forward."Mama, please don't speak to Papa in that
It seemed as though heaven and earth had encompassed me after our conversation with Tita. What the heck, I prepare everything and he knows it's our anniversary today, and then he goes to a pub with his pals. This is insane and really disturbing.I rose up, took up my coat and pocketbook, and placed my keys and phone inside. If Navi is here, I will approach her, and she will be quite near to me now.My fingers shook as I closed the hotel room door, even after I wiped my tears away and kept them from dropping since my make-up was a waste today, but I prepare and make an effort for this. I want it to be unique and unforgettable. But it's like throwing away all of my hard work here.I clutched my bag tighter and stepped into a cab in front of the hotel, my hand longing to hit someone, wanting to let out all my rage. Even though we seldom contact anymore, I understand him; he also stated that he knows my predicament because I am in it.We're both old and understand things like not being ab
I paid the remaining hospital money, but Papa's condition is not improving. Something is obstructing a vein in Papa's heart, preventing it from recovering.Every day that I am with Papa, I notice that his body is weakening and that issues in his body have emerged, therefore I can't help but be concerned about his current state.I grinned and stepped to the window, looking at the calendar and saw that today is Navi's anniversary. I need to get my thoughts in order, and because Navi and I haven't seen each other in a long time, I'll take advantage of the situation, because Navi promised to return home to Manila today, and it's also our anniversary.I grinned as I approached Papa and kissed his brow. His eyes were wide open, but he was unresponsive; nonetheless, I had the impression that he was listening to me."Just be patient, Dad, I'm graduating and will be able to focus on our business, so get well." I always support you because I can fight for your good." I grinned and hugged Papa,
I was seated on the dining chair, clutching my insurance policy. I discovered that I couldn't move her again since Mama previously touched her and took half of it, and I don't know what to do because I'm in the agreement that I can have complete control there when I'm twenty-four, and while I'm not at the correct age, Mom and Dad can still move it.I'm waiting for Mama to come home today; the situation has changed, and I'm worried I'm going insane since I don't have enough money to pay for school. Aunt and I covered Papa's other medical costs, and the school set me a deadline to pay my massive tuition price.I found the paperwork in Papa's study, and we have additional properties that I can mortgage. However, you are unable to move since Mama does not have a prime. My mother now has complete control of our properties, but I have no idea where she is.Mama spent all of the money in the bank, and if there had been no limit, she may have taken it all. Mama didn't come home when I began s

I'm holding the ballpen, and we have an exam on my major topic today; I need to finish everything before I compete in the ojt because this is my final year of college."Miss Sanjorjo!" said our professor, and I leapt to my feet as my last name was pronounced. He raised his eyebrows as he examined my test paper."Okay, continue." I was turned aside, and Sheen moved to my side, motioning for me to pick up the tossed paper. I took it for granted, and now I know why.I rapidly copied the response and couldn't study it since I had to audit the store's income and pay Papa's hospital bill because it was rising and I couldn't afford to pay it, especially if it was a boy. We'll be out of pocket just in case.Papa's condition worsened rather than improved, and he is currently unstable. His hospital treatment is pricey, and we are concerned that he will have issues in his body.I can't limit my spending on Mama since I can't see her and inform her. Maybe I'll be the caustic one, or maybe we'll q
Tita was the first to return home, driving Navi's car back to their residence. We drove to their house in the afternoon after we ate, and Navi held my hand while driving and utilizing his new automobile with a large smile on his face, like a child who was overjoyed with the present he received."I didn't expect Mama to give me a new car, especially since she provided for all of my needs." "I am grateful that she always supports me," Navi murmured as we rounded the bend."You deserve this baby, and you work hard too." Navi gripped my hand tighter and grinned as she drove along the road."I'd like to leave you alone today, but Aunt has already planned a party." Maybe I'll say goodbye to Aunt Amelie tomorrow if you don't go home?" He inquired, and we came to a halt close to it. I shook my head and reached for my phone."No, I'll be the one to say goodbye to Tita, and they expect me to leave now." We'll be back tomorrow to celebrate your new accomplishment, so enjoy this day. You're the s
