She’s busy splashing the water all around. Hind siya sinamahan ni Beau kaya siya lang mag-isa rito. Parang batang nagtatampisaw sa tubig at binabantayan siya ng kanyang kuya. Kuya? Wala sa sarili siyang tumingin kay Beau. Nakatingin ito sa tubig at mukhang malalim ang iniisip. Tama nga naman. Beau
“Fuck, Emory.” A soft moan escaped from her lips when he sucked her tongue. Umupo si Beau dahilan para makakandong siya sa paharap rito. His lips left hers and drops it on her neck. Emory can feel the butterflies started flipping in her stomach especially when Beau’s lips found the sensitive spot.
He walked toward the cold water. Nang na sa beywang na ni Beau ang tubig ay maingat siya nitong nilapag. Kusang humawak ang kanyang kamay sa braso ng binata dahil nanghihina pa rin siya. She turned to Beau and saw him staring at her. “I hate to see you being taunted by your snake friend,” he said w
“Can I talk to you, Beau?” Wala sa sariling napatingin siya sa nagsalita at bumungad sa kanya ang kanyang Lolo na ngayon ay mayroong seryosong ekspresyon sa mukha. He immediately frowned and turned to Emory who is now walking upstairs. “Is it that urgent?” tanong niya rito. “I’m wet.” “Violet is
“This is mine,” he said. “No one is allowed to touch this except me. Do you get me?” … as if he owns it. Wala sa sarili siyang tumango at napalunok. “Y-yes.” “Good.” Isang singhap ang lumabas sa kanyang bibig nang magdagdag si Beau ng isang daliri. Mas lalo niyang diniin ang sariling kamay sa bi
Naiintindihan niya ang kanyang Lolo kung ganito ito magbabala sa kanya. “Is she coming with her husband?” “They’re long divorced,” his grandfather said. “She’s coming back for her cousin’s upcoming wedding.” Violet Monteverde was his ex-fiancée. Katulad ni Emory, si Violet ang babaeng naipagkasund
“Ma’am, tingnan niyo po ‘to.” Two weeks passed in a blink of an eye. Unti-unti na silang nagiging malapit ni Beau at weekly siyang mayroong ice cream mula rito. Madalas siyang sinasama ni Beau sa farm kaya naman marami siyang natutonan lalo na sa pagtatanim. Naging malapit na rin siya sa mga tauhan
“You’re ignoring me,” sambit nito na puno ng pinalidad. “Is it because of my brother? Ano? Mahal mo na ba siya? Ano? Yung two years nating pagsasama, wala lang sa ‘yo? Ganon ka niya kadaling nakuha− Hindi na natapos ni Beau ang kanyang sasabihin nang lumapat ang kanyang palad sa pisngi nito. Her wh
That made her chuckle as well. Umismid lamang si Gem at lumipat sa kanyang daddy. Umalis naman si Emory sa pagkakasandal kay Beau at tumingin sa kanyang dalawang pang anak na lalaki. Lumapit naman ang mga ito sa kanya at isa-isa niya itong niyakap.“Did you have fun?” she asked.Tumango si Blue haba
She started browsing through the pictures while Selena is busy roaming her eyes. Hindi niya na lamang ito pinansin at pinagtuonan na lamang ng tingin ang kanyang hawak ngayon.Marami siyang mga napapansing designs na maganda sa paningin. But of course, hindi lang sa kanya ang kasal na ito. It’s her
“Do you want some tea? Coffee?”“No need. I’m not here as your guest. I’m here to coordinate with you how to plan out your wedding.”Hindi alam ni Emory kung ano ang kanyang dapat na maramdaman. She was looking at the woman, confused of what she should do next. Nakatitig lamang siya rito na para ban
“You wanted this,” he replied and looked at her. “You wanted this and there’s no need to be sorry. You chose him.”“He’s the father of my children.”“And you think he loves you?”“I love him,” she replied in a very low voice. “I… I don’t need him to love me. I love him, and that’s all matters.”Pans
Nang ilang hakbang na lang ang layo ay narinig nila itong nagsalita.“I was told you’re coming over.” Lumingon ito sa kanilang pwesto at tinaasan siya ng kilay. “You came here for what? To brag how happy you are right now?”Umiling siya at napalunok. “Brille…”“Have a seat,” saad nito at iminuwestra
“Are you sure about this?”Hindi na niya mabilang kung pang-ilang beses na siyang tinanong ni Beau tungkol sa bagay na ‘yon. She frowned at him and then smiled. Humilig siya sa balikat ng kanyang katipad at niyakap ito sa beywang.“You’re by my side. I’m always sure, Beau. Alam ko namang hindi mo ak
“What do you mean seeing me in person?”“Hindi mo ba alam? Your secretary contacted me to be your wedding planner. So I guess I have to see you soon?” Humagikhik ito. “Anyways, it’s morning here. Mag-iimpake pa ako para makapagkita na tayo.”Magsasalita pa sana siya nang margining niya ang malumanay
“Ako ang mauunang papasok,” he replied coldly. “I want to see him as well.”“Why now?” pangungulit nito. “Are you trying to win your parents back?”Napaismid siya sa tanong nito at mahinang napailing. “I don’t even give a fuck about them. Pinagbibigyan ko lang ang fiancée ko. I want her to be happy.
The flight bounce back to the Philippines was quiet. Kasama nila si Selim na umuwi. According to him, he just wanted to be back in the Philippines and spend more time with the kids. Hindi rin naman problema ‘yon sa kanya. Mas mainam na rin ‘yon dahil gusto niyang makabawi sa binata dahil sa mga sakr
