2022-03-11 20:00:32I just go back to the company, feeling disheartened for some reason. I try to finish all my paperworks in the afternoon until night surfaces. Hindi na ako kumain ng tanghalian kahit sinabi niya dahil nawalan na ako ng gana.
Never in my life have I experienced such cold treatment. Tinaboy niya ako sa sobrang lamig na paraan. Because he’s so busy talking with his childhood friend and first love.
First love.
I scoff just thinking about such ridiculous words. Pero napatigil din nang biglang maisip na kung ako ba ang nasa katayuan niya, ganoon din ba ang gagawin ko? Ipagtatabuyan ko ba ang asawa ko kapag nasa harap ko ang first love ko? Or... am I really going to marry someone else even though I’m already in love with my childhood friend?
Napabuntong hininga ako sa mga naisip.
When I finish everything, I just take a rest for a little bit. Gabi na at uwian na ng mga workers under my company. Even my secretary already went home. Ako n

Perfectly Fake Marriage Chapter 9: Stay
Dr. Ricaforte and I are having a dinner with his parents at an exclusive restaurant I personally booked. Tahimik lang kaming lahat habang kumakain. It feels really awkward and I don’t know how to break the silence. I don’t know what to say. Bumaba ang kamay ko at ipinatong iyon sa hita ni Dr. Ricaforte. I feel him stiffen a little which makes me chuckle. I lean closer to him and whisper. “Talk,” utos ko. Napansin ko ang pagbaling sa amin ng parents niya kaya ngumiti ako sa kanila. “Son,” tawag ni Tito Zachariah sa anak niya. “Dad,” tugon ni Zachary. “How’s your research going? I heard from your Tito Zico that you’re planning to submit your on-going research for grant in U.S.?” Natigilan ako at napaangat ng tingin kay Tito Zachariah nang sabihin niya ‘yon. Agad akong bumaling kay Zachary, gulat at hindi maintindihan kung ano ang mayroon. But I feel... weird. Is he... planning to leave... for his research? Zachary sighs b

Nang tumagal ang halik niya sa akin ay naramdaman ko na lang na nag-init ang loob loob ko. And the moment he pushes his tongue inside my mouth, the fire within my core ignites more.Napayakap ako sa kaniyang leeg nang iangat niya ako sa aking pang-upo. He then carries me all the way to his bedroom. At nang makapasok kami ng k’warto niya ay sinandal niya ako sa pader at agresibong hinalikan.Habang tumatagal ang halikan naming dalawa ay mas lalo siyang nagiging agresibo. It’s far different from the first time we had sex. He was so gentle back then but now he’s completely different. Pero ang epekto sa akin ay parehong-pareho.“Ah...” I moan when I feel his hands traveling inside my blouse.It was tickling me a little and I couldn’t help but let out a moan. Umungol siya nang mahina bago binaba sa aking leeg ang mga halik niya. Mas lalo lang akong nag-init nang marinig ang mumunti pero nanabik niyang mga ungol.He un

Natigilan ako sa tanong niya. I see how his annoyed eyes turn soft and almost pleading. “Do you really want me to leave, MJ? I thought you didn’t want me to leave since you tried to de—” He stops what he’s about to say, but I get what it was. Since I tried to delete his lifework. And I am so guilty for doing such a thing. I don’t want to see him everyday only to be reminded of what I almost did. Guilt is eating me whole and I feel awful about it. He deserves to continue chasing his dream. I don’t want to be the cause of him regretting his choices. Natahimik kaming dalawa sa loob ng sasakyan. Walang nagsasalita ni isa hanggang sa makarating kami ng village ng mga Salazar. Nauna akong bumaba sa kaniya at sumunod lang siya. Dala-dala ng driver ang mga maleta namin papasok sa mansyon ng parents ko. “MJ...” I hear Dr. Ricaforter calls me. Huminga ako nang malalim at tumigil para balingan siya. Napansin ko sobrang lapit niya sa akin kaya ag

“How do I use this?” muling tanong sa akin ni Dr. Ricaforte habang pasakay siya sa kabayo na pinahiram ko sa kaniya.Hawak hawak niya iyong bridle ng kabayo at nakasampa na ang isang paa sa tungtungan ng saddle nito. Bumuntong hininga ako at iniwan saglit ang kabayo ko para makalapit sa kaniya.Hinawakan ko ang bridle bago nagsalita, “Sampa,” utos ko.“Okay...” mahina niyang tugon bago huminga nang malalim at sumampa sa kabayo niya.“You’ll use this bridle to control your horse. Ihahampas mo ‘to nang mahina para palakarin ang kabayo mo at malakas naman nang kaunti kapag papatakbuhin mo. Then you’ll pull it backwards to gently to make your horse stop. Do you get it?” tanong ko.Tumango siya at muling huminga nang malalim. Napangiti ako dahil mayroon pala talaga siyang mga bagay na hindi alam. I always thought he’s good at everything. Ngayon ko lang din na-realized na laking Mayn

After that night of vising my parents, Dr. Ricaforte and I went straight back home to Manila. We didn’t talk the whole time of travel via plane. Agad akong nakatulog noon at paggising ko ay nasa airport na kami. Dr. Ricaforte woke me up but we didn’t talk after that as well. Hanggang sa makauwi ay hindi kami nag-usap na dalawa. And I don’t know if it’s because he thought I was mad at or upset with him. Wala rin naman akong sinabing dahilan nang matapos ako sa pag-iyak and he didn’t ask me anything anymore after that. Maybe he also felt that I wasn’t in the mood to say anything or to explain what I feel so instead of digging deeper into the matter, he just chose to understand and complied to what I wanted. The next nakipagkita ako kay Klaus at nalaman kong mas dumadalas ang pagkikita ng tiyuhin ko at ang secretary ni Zachariah Ricaforte. “What if he’s having an affair with Zachariah Ricaforte’s secretary?” tanong ko kay Klaus. “I also assumed t

I wasn’t thinking straight when I said that, but I knew I had to so that I’d be reminded of the reason why I started all of this in the first place. I married him because I know I could use him against his father or for me to be able to find something against his father. I married him because that’s also what my parents wanted.Ang hindi ko lang talaga maintindihan, ay bakit gustong gusto siya ng mga magulang ko para sa akin. Based on the scheduled email containing their letter for me, they are really fond of Dr. Ricaforte. And I get that he can be kind at times pero right now, I don’t want to believe that because I’ve been fooled by him many times already. And everything was just lies.Hindi ako umuwi sa villa namin. Instead, I go to my parents’ house in Makati. Tinawagan ko rin ang tagapangalaga ng bahay na ‘yon at sinabihan siya na uuwi ako roon kaya naman pagkadating ko ay bukas ang mga ilaw. Nakahain na rin ang hapag at ni

“What are you doing here at this hour, Dr. Ricaforte? And how did you get inside?” My heart thumps inside my chest and I feel hot all over. But my heart remains cold and unnerving. I don’t understand why but maybe anger is swelling inside me again. “Kanina pa ako ritong mga 8 o’clock. I was waiting for you. Bukas pa ang building kanina at pinapasok ako ni Karylle sa office mo. She told me that it’s possible na bumalik ka pa rito kaya hinintay kita...” pagpapaliwanag niya. He waited for me? Since 8PM? It’s already past 11! He waited for over 3 hours! But I won’t get swayed by that! Ano naman ngayon kung ilang oras siyang naghintay? Wala akong pakialam kahit buong araw pa ‘yan! “Anong kailangan mo?” tanong ko at nilagpasan siya para makapasok ng opisina ko. I hear him follow me and closes the door behind us. Dumiretso ako sa office table ko at umupo sa swivel chair. I watch him walk towards me. Tumigil lang siya sa tapat ng table ko.

We continued our business at home. I couldn’t recall how many times we did it but I feel sore all over my body the next day. I think I pushed myself too hard. But it wasn’t bad at all. Pleasurable and satisfying still maybe because of my need as a woman. We need not feelings and emotions for this kind of setup or at least for me. After all, it’s my mission to seduce him. Maagang umalis si Dr. Ricaforte dahil sa kaniyang trabaho. Ako naman ay nanatili lang sa bahay at hindi na pumasok dahil sobrang sakit ng katawan ko. I feel like I hiked a number of tall mountains. I just gave my secretary a heads-up that I won’t be present today because I want to at least take a day rest. I take a warm shower and bath to soothe the soreness I feel. Nang matapos ako ay medyo umayos na ang pakiramdam ko. Dr. Ricaforte also cooked my breakfast before he left. Nakahain sa hapag ang pagkain pagkababa ko. Saglit akong natulala sa niluto niyang umagahan ko at doon ko lang n

Pagkababa namin sa parking lot ay hila hila niya akong pinapasok sa kotse niya. “What do you mean by us, Gil?” I asked him as he put his seatbelt on. His jaw was clenched hard and he didn’t answer me so I called him again. “Gil, please. I can’t let anyone know more about this. They might kill Klaus. I don’t want people dying on me anymore.” “And I can’t have you dying on us, Jade!” he exclaimed. “We’re gonna figure this out, together.” I sighed and covered my face with my hands. I was still trembling but I was lucky enough that I wasn’t having a panic attack right now. I couldn’t have myself losing my sanity right now. I need to save Klaus. We arrived at the place. It wasn’t a restaurant, though. It was my grandfather’s private property. Agad akong lumabas ng sasakyan ni Gil pagka-park niya nito. He was behind me when I was about to call for him. “What are we doing here?” I asked him. Malalim ang kaniyang buntong hininga at mariing tumingin sa akin. “I told you, we’re going t

I’m not sure what time Zachary left, but by the time I woke up. He was already gone. I felt him kiss the top of my head, though. And I felt him leaving the room but I was too tired and too sore to even get up or wake up. We had a rough night. We made love until we’re both exhausted.I sat down and stared at the door. After a while, I decided to get up already because I still need to work. I took a bath and did my morning routine. Then I went downstairs and ate the breakfast Zachary made for me before he left. I was smiling the whole time I was eating.Maaga akong nakarating sa office ko. I immediately started all the paper works left on my table. I also read a lot of proposals for a new project the company is planning. Not a single one fit my plans so I rejected all of it.“Jade, Lolo told me to invite your for dinner later sa bahay niya...” Gil appeared by the door of my office. Nakahilig siya roon habang nakatingin sa akin nang seryoso.“Hindi pa rin siya umuuwi ng States?” I asked
Perfectly Fake Marriage Chapter 62: Away
I cooked and prepared our dinner for tonight. Zachary messaged me that he’d be home by nine in the evening. Pagkauwi ko galing office kanina ay nagpahinga muna ako bago magluto ng hapunan. I was happy. I enjoyed cooking for us. For him. I hope he'll love the food. Iniwan ko ang nakahandang hapunan sa hapag at tinakluban iyon para hindi mapanis at masira agad. I went to my room and continued the preparation I’ve been doing since I decided to continue my investigation. But before I fully continue this, I wanted to find Klaus first. Wala pa rin akong balita galing kay Klaus and I still couldn’t find the right opportunity to ask Gil about him. I really want to find Klaus, but I don’t know where to start. I tried going back to the hotel where he was staying before but I found out that he already moved out. I don’t know where else to find him. If I ask Gil about Klaus, he might find out what we’ve been doing behind his back. Ayaw kong mag-isip ng kung ano ano, pero hindi ko mapigilan ang

“You can’t hear me?” Zachary said something again but I couldn’t understand it. Hindi ko iyon marinig. His lips were moving and I knew that he was speaking. Pero hindi ko iyon marinig. My ears are acting up again. It has been a while since something like this happened. I thought I would be okay but I was wrong. I forgot that I wasn’t fully healed yet. And now, it’s starting again. “What are you saying?” I asked despite not being able to hear what I said. “I’m sorry, my ears. I can’t hear...” I could feel my lips trembling. Hindi ko alam ang gagawin. I didn’t bring my hearing aids. Zachary came to me. Lumuhod siya sa harap ko. His eyes were worried and bloodshot. He looked like he’s pitying me. I suddenly felt awful. “I’ll rest now. I wanna be alone while I rest. You can sleep in the guestroom,” I told him. “MJ...” I read the movement of his lips. He was close to me which was why I was able to understand what he said. “I can’t leave you alone. Why are you asking me to leave you?

[ Zachary’s Point of View; A Flashback ] I was there when my sister died. I failed to notice her struggle and pain because I was too busy studying so I could gain our father’s approval. My little sister, Zoe, was my comfort. The very reason why I wanted to become a doctor. I wanted to cure her illness. But before I could even do that, she died. And it was because of my own negligence. “I’ve had enough of your defiance, Zachary. For once, I need you to do as I say. Marry the woman I want for you and I will let you continue your career. Defy me, and I will do everything in my power so you can never set foot in the medical field again!” That was my father’s bargain when I first told him that I would still continue my residency and my research. I didn’t want that. All of my life, I tried everything to make him proud. Even if it’s not from the field he wanted for me. I thought that if I became the best in my field, he would finally acknowledge all

“We can stay here for a few minutes more if you want…” Zachary said as he held my hand with his.Pinagmamasdan niya lang ako ngayon habang nakatingin pa rin ako sa puntod ng mga magulang ako. Ngumiti ako at bumaling sa kaniya. Then I shook my head a little.“I already told them what I wanted to say. We can go now. I want to rest,” sabi ko.Tumango siya at mas hinigpitan ang hawak sa kamay ko.I feel so lucky to have him beside me. When he hugged me, I felt safe and comfortable, I never want to let go.When my parents died, I never experienced such a comforting love again. But with Zachary, I knew it was more than that. It was more than the love I felt when my family was still complete. Kahit ramdam ko ang kulang dahil sa pagkawala ng mga magulang ko, Zachary was able to easily fill its gaps with his gentleness.The day was over before we even knew it. Zachary and I rested the whole night and slept peacefully. I

“Are you sure you’re okay now? We can visit them tomorrow instead,” Zachary said as he helped me get inside our car, his voice like a fire that calms my soul in the midst of a cold winter. It was enough to soothe my heart. More than enough. “I’m okay. Let’s just go.” I smiled to assure him that I’m really fine. Habang walang tigil ang pag-iyak at paghikbi ko kanina sa office ng Daddy ko, Zachary was just there embracing me. He was like a soft pair of large wings that protects me from pain. And I realized that I became more and more dependent of him. I really have no idea if it’s a good thing or bad one. For once, I wanted time to stop. I wanted to stay in that moment. To keep him close to me. Before closing the door on my side, Zachary leaned down to touch my cheek, caressing them. He was looking at me with so much affection in his eyes I couldn’t help but want to drown in them. Pinagmasdan niya lang ako at hinayaan ko siya. I held his gaze as

We arrived at the airport. Kinuha ni Zachary ang mga gamit namin bago kami lumabas. There was an SUV waiting for us outside and we immediately hopped in.Tahimik kaming dalawa sa byahe. It was probably because of what we discussed back in the plane. We talked about my parents and his family. I told him that there was something I still wasn’t telling him. He respects everything. Ang galit ko sa kaniyang ama. Ang gulo sa isip ko tungkol sa mga hindi ko sinasabi sa kaniya. He respects my pace. He respects me.I don’t really know if I should allow myself to be this dependent on him. He’s not asking anything in return. It was so natural to him. Ang pakisamahan ako. Ang intindihin ako. Our differences were mode defined this time. I felt like I’m taking him for granted. No… I really am taking him for granted.Simula pa noon lagi niya na akong iniintindi. He was so good at putting up with me and my shortcomings. I was so high-maintenance I

We were both panting after doing a lot of make love rounds. My body was already exhausted even before we stopped but I just couldn’t get enough of him. I was lying on top of him, still panting. I also could feel his heavy breathing. Nakayakap siya sa akin habang marahang nilalaro ang dulo ng buhok ko. “Thank you…” he whispered. “For coming back to me.” I looked at him and kissed him again on his lips. I licked his lips and urged him to open up for my tongue. I kissed every corner of his mouth and he did the same. “We should shower and eat breakfast.” I chuckled after our kissing. Tumango siya at bumangon sa pagkakahiga, dala dala ako. Then he lifted me up and carried me all the way to my bathroom. Pagkatapos naming maligo ay dumiretso na kami sa baba para magluto at kumain ng breakfast. Zachary was busy cooking some fried rice with spam and egg. Nagluto rin siya na hiwalay naman ang spam at egg sa fried rice. After cooking, he placed t
