SOUL TANGLE A THOUGHTFUL MAN
Minutes had turned into hours as they lay intertwined, saving the beauty of the moment. Then Ayana’s eyes drifted to the clock on the wall, the time mocking her.“Shieet! What the...” she cursed, peeling herself off from Adam’s tight and warm embrace as she raced out of bed. She was about to hike out, but the stinging sensation between her legs stopped her without mercy. “Ouch!” she cried, and Adam rushed to her rescue.He enveloped her in his arms again, his heart racing inside with worry and shock. “Hey! What’s up?” He asked, brushing strands of hair from her face and forcing her to look up to him.“Lyana. I need to get to her school at this minute. It is past time!” She said it in apprehension."Hey, don't worry," Adam said softly, his voice a soothing balm to Ayana's frazzled nerves. "I took care of it. I sent Daniel to pick up Lyana from school. She will be here soon."Ayana's eyes widened in surprise and gratitude at Adam's thoughtfulness. "You did?" she exclaimed, a rush of rel
SOUL TANGLE CAUGHT GOSSIPPING
“You are such a bad gossipmonger, Daniel,” Adam said, and Ayana looked at the two men as they faught. “I know why you won’t snoop around. Don’t you have things to do? I am sure my company is not dormant.”Daniel crossed her hands over his chest. “Of course it isn’t, man. But you do all the work, right? I brought you more documents to verify and approve. They are in the car, and that is the only work that I have—to get them for you. And by the way, tomorrow is the weekend, in case it has slipped out of your mind.”“I don’t even know what I pay you for. Get lost from here.” Adam said and turned, meaning to end the conversation, but Daniel spoke again, stopping him.“Well, that is what I have been telling you for years, boss. You just pay me so that you can hide behind my face. You only pay me because you want people to only see the ugly side of you and not the good one. But I think that is changing now,” Daniel said with a quizzical glance at Ayana. There was more to that glance. “Shoul
SOUL TANGLE THE PLAN CHANGED
As Ayana stood in the doorway, her heart sank at the exchange she had just witnessed between Adam and Daniel. The revelation of Adam's motives and intentions left her feeling raw and vulnerable, questioning everything she thought she knew about their relationship.Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Ayana stepped into the kitchen, her gaze fixed on Adam, who stood frozen in place, his expression a mix of guilt and apprehension. She needed answers and clarity amidst the chaos of emotions swirling within her."Adam," Ayana began, her voice barely above a whisper, her eyes locked with his. "Is any of this true? Was everything between us just a game to you? A means to an end?"Adam's eyes widened in shock at Ayana's question, the weight of her words hitting him like a punch to the gut. He opened his mouth to respond, but the words caught in his throat, his mind racing as he struggled to find the right thing to say."Ayana, I..." Adam started, his voice faltering as he searched for an
SOUL TANGLE APOLOGY ACCEPTED
As Adam rushed after Ayana, his heart pounded with a mixture of fear and determination. He knew that winning her back wouldn't be easy, but he couldn't bear the thought of losing her without a fight.As he reached the doorway, he caught a glimpse of Ayana disappearing around a corner, her figure small and fragile in the dim light of the hallway. With each step, the distance between them grew, a painful reminder of the chasm that now lay between them."Ayana, wait!" Adam called out, his voice echoing in the empty corridor. He quickened his pace, desperate to catch up to her before it was too late.Ayana hesitated for a moment, her steps faltering as she heard Adam's voice behind her. Her heart ached at the sound, torn between the desire to confront him and the need to protect herself from further pain."Please, Ayana," Adam pleaded, his voice filled with anguish. "Let me explain. Let me make things right between us."Ayana turned to face him, her eyes brimming with tears as she struggl
SOUL TANGLE AN INNOCENT REQUEST
As Adam and Ayana embraced, the weight of their past mistakes lifted, replaced by a sense of hope and renewal. They stood there, locked in each other's arms, lost in the euphoria of newfound love and forgiveness.As Daniel observed Adam and Ayana's embrace from the kitchen, he couldn't help but feel a mixture of emotions swirling within him. Relief washed over him like a gentle tide, knowing that the rift he inadvertently contributed to was finally healing. The weight of guilt that had burdened him seemed to lighten as he witnessed the power of forgiveness in action.He had never wanted to hurt either of them. His actions, though well-intentioned, had caused more harm than he could have ever imagined. But now, as he watched them stand together, their past mistakes fading into the background, Daniel felt a glimmer of hope spark within him.Perhaps their love was stronger than the challenges they had faced. Perhaps their bond could withstand the trials that had threatened to tear them a
SOUL TANGLE DEDICATED TO LOVE
As Ayana and Adam sat together beneath the moonlit sky, they couldn't help but be captivated by the ethereal beauty that surrounded them. Above, the stars shimmered like scattered diamonds, painting the vast expanse of the night sky with their celestial glow. Each twinkle seemed to carry with it a promise of infinite possibilities, a reminder of the boundless potential that lay ahead.In the quiet stillness of the night, Ayana and Adam felt as though they were the only two souls in the world, cocooned in their own private universe. The balcony, bathed in the soft, silver light of the moon, became a sanctuary where they could bask in the warmth of their newfound love.As they looked up at the stars, a sense of wonder washed over them, their hearts swelling with the realization of just how far they had come. Their love was still in its infancy, a tender shoot just beginning to unfurl, but already it felt as though it had the power to move mountains.For Ayana and Adam, the night sky ser
SOUL TANGLE THE WORRYING SPEED
Adam gazed into Ayana's eyes, his heart earnest and open. "Ayana, I know how much your painting means to you, and I want to support you in any way I can. I was thinking... maybe you could consider letting me keep watch over Lyana while you focus on your art? I mean, we cannot be taking her on the streets."Ayana's eyes widened in surprise, touched by Adam's selflessness and willingness to step up in such a significant way. But more shocking was the unbelief that slapped her. He would do that for her? “Are you serious? You…you are not pulling my leg? You can actually do that.” She ranted in disbelief.Adam nodded earnestly, his gaze unwavering. "Absolutely serious, Ayana. I want to do this for you and for us. Your art is important, and I believe in it as much as I believe in us. I have a feeling it will take you places, and it will unleash the woman I envision in you. And as for Lyana, she is as important to me as you are. I would never pull your leg on something like this. I'm fully c
SOUL TANGLE BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE
“Don’t feel anything. Just think of your child attending one of the best schools in the country. Ask me to enroll her in Cabridge, and she will report there in the morning. Then just sit and watch her future unfold before you, and I promise, it is a decision that you can never regret. I am asking nothing in return.” Adam said.“It is a huge decision to make. I have always taken her as my sole responsibility. I would feel indebted if someone else took care of her this way. Please understand, and I have nothing against your intentions or your plan. It's so gooey, utterly tempting, but...“Think it over, Ayana. What’s more, you can repay it someday if it bothers you so much. Anyhow, you will want to pay me at your own convenience. But like I said, you can take time to mull over it. We are not rushing. Take as much time as you want. I will wait for your answer, and whatever decision you make, I will respect it.” Adam assured her, rubbing his hands on her shoulders.“The way you are making

SOUL TANGLE PERFECTED BY THE IMPERFECTIONS
“Hey! “ Lian spoke with her signature smile, of course. “Why don’t we first stop by calling it a sin? Let us just say that it was casual sex done for the wrong reasons and at the wrong place. But all in all, we were adults, and we both proved a point that day. Of course, it hurts, just a little, because you did not offer exactly what I wanted. But if anything, Adam, I want you to know that I wouldn’t waste a chance with you even now if I had it. I am not ashamed to be on the list of, you know, all of those you have been with.” She then looked at me. “I am sorry to say this too, but at least I got to taste the famous Adam Stone De’Leon!” She smiles, and I think I am beginning to love her smile now. Eyes roll! “You are lucky, Ayana. You both are lucky to have each other. And this is where I wanted to be—to have you look at me the way you are looking at her, with so much love and adoration. Your eyes speak submission every minute they brush her. Even a fool can tell you love her so much.
SOUL TANGLE THE ISSUE OF FORGIVENESS
“What, son?” His father asks.“The merger that you seek with the De’Marios will happen.” Excuse me, what? I snap at him, and I was just to give him a piece of my mind, but a gentle squeaaze of my hand sealed my lips, opting to trust him, hoping that he knows that these bunch of heartless fools do not deserve to benefit even just one bit from me. “But not on the grounds of my marriage to Ayana!”Fantastic! Bingo! God, I so love this man!Eyes flickered on each other for a long moment of screaming silence, until my father had to break the lull. Desperate old man! “What are you talking about, son? You know you are really growing desperate by the day here. And now, we have damages to pay to the Adrianos for what Grace did. Things are weighing down on us, Adam! So, what do you suggest? Anything that will help at all. We will abide!”So, Adriano, are you asking for compensation for the damage that Grace’s actions caused? Well, they seem to be the experts in not letting any opportunity slide
SOUL TANGLE THE PEACE MAKER
After a long, unnerving moment, the door opens again and freezes on our spot as our house is swamped with people.Yeah!People!And I am not talking about two or three people here, no! This weird woman is the weirdest of all because, how did she pull all these?And yeah, before I forget, I am not talking about just any other people. Not some ordinary people. Naah!We are talking of the De’Leons, Adam’s father and mother; the De’Marios, my parents; and this skinny witch who used to be my sister. And these other people, whom I presume are Lina’s parents,.Forget everyone. Lina and her parents have a score to settle with Adam, and so do the De'Leons, who have the right to be in their son’s house. But these black souls, these people that God gave me as a family?

And this little brat of a witch, after insulting Adam like he was the greatest sinner the world has ever had
SOUL TANGLE HE AIN'T A RAPIST
“You got my information from my parents? How? When? Why?” I ask.She steadies herself. “It wasn’t intentional. It just so happened that you both were the reason why some dark secret that was kept in the dark for years was leaked out. Our families, the Adrianos, the De’Leons, and the De’Marios had to meet because that was a breach of contract!” She speaks.I get everything about the dark secret and the urgency for the two families to meet, and I can also understand that tabgle. But breach of contract? What was all about that?“Breach…” I throw Adam a glare to ask for clarity, but he seems clueless and lost like I am, so I decide to ease both our curiosities. “Breach of contract? What contract?”“Yes,” she says, throwing Adam a glance, and she speaks, looking at him as if the words were only meant for him. Wasn’t I the one who asked the damn question here? “Our families, the De’Leon’s and the Adriano’s, after settling for compensation and agreeing to bury all that had happened, signed a
SOUL TANGLE THE KNOW-IT-ALL GUEST

I am harmless, you know!” The lady, Lina, speaks, and she even has the bravery to smile at me while my hand freely retreats from the mission of shaking her hand.She had no choice but to drop hers in letdown.She is harmless.The woman that supposedly Adam raped years ago is smiling right in my face, and I should not be worried. She is harmless. Harmless, huh?What is this?Why did she come here?“I know who you are,” I murmur, hoping that we don’t have a problem here, but how stupid of me to think, no, to actually hope for that? Why would he come here if there wasn’t fire in the mountain? “Wha…what are you doing here?” I ask.As Adam composes himself and approaches, his trembling hand clasping my waist reveals the struggle within him. It's not merely a physical tremor, but a manifestation of the turmoil in his soul. I sense the weight of his past bearing down on him, an unwelcome guest crashing into the delicate balance he's been striving to maintain.In his touch, I feel the e
SOUL TANGLE MORNING GUEST
The chirping of the early morning birds calls me out of my peaceful sleep. I peel my eyes, and they almost impair with a striking, sharp pain as they collide with the savage rays of the morning sun. I shut them for a minute, but when I don’t feel those strong arms around me, I peel them open in a flash, turning around. Empty space! That explains why the widow's curtains are open, permeating the savage sunrays. He woke up before me. That has never been him. I always wake up enveloped in his arms every single day of the six months that we have been together. What changed? Is it because of that question from last night? This marriage issue? After he asked me that, and after I failed to come up with a straight answer, I just laid my head on his chest and snuggled into his warm embrace. He understood the memo, which meant I was not ready for that kind of conversation. And he respected it, just like he has always done. He pulled me closer and tighter, and we drifted off to sleep. Did I
SOUL TANGLE LET'S BE A FAMILY
“Goodnight, mommy,” Angel says after I tuck her to bed, or rather, we tuck her to bed. Me and Adam. She turns to him and says disrespectfully, "Goodnight, Uncle Adam. You two are the best." Some“Alright. Goodnight princess. Have sweet dreams, and your mommy and I love you so very much,” Adam says, kissing her on the forehead before standing up as the sweet little girl closes her eyes.My sweet little angel. My gift is straight from heaven. What can I give God to thank him for bringing her into my life? She is my pride! My joy.“Shall we?” Adam asks, holding my hand, and I don’t waste time. I follow him behind, leaving Lyana’s room as we stroll across to his master's room. Or just simply, our room. This has become our room, just as his house has become my house. We are better off being called a family. A married couple. Because this is what all this depicts. I forgot about my house a long time ago. All that is left is for me to pick up my belongings and settle here for good. Yes, here
SOUL TANGLE A SITUATION TURNS INTO A WEAPON
Ayana's anger flared, fueled by the woman's bitter accusations. "What I meant was," she retorted, her voice trembling with fury, "I did not know that Robert had a wife. And no, I have never entertained this fool ever since he came back from nowhere, and I never will. For me, he is nothing but some fresh vomit that I can never take back, no matter what."Her words cut through the tension like a knife, carrying a raw honesty that left no room for doubt. Ayana's resolve was unwavering as she stood her ground, refusing to let the woman's scornful words diminish her self-worth."And as you said," Ayana continued, her voice rising with conviction, "I am with my man. A man worth being called a man, and not some trash!"With each word, Ayana reclaimed her power, asserting her worth and dignity in the face of adversity. She refused to be defined by the actions of others, standing tall in her truth and righteousness.Robert's once confident demeanor faltered as Ayana's words pierced through his
SOUL TANGLE MISTAKEN FOR A MISTRESS
All eyes turned towards the unexpected newcomer, a tired and heavily pregnant woman standing before them. Ayana's heart skipped a beat as she took in the sight—the woman's weary expression, the telltale swell of her abdomen—indicating she was carrying a child.As confusion clouded Ayana's mind, she searched for answers in the woman's gaze. There was a sense of familiarity—a haunting resemblance to Robert—that sent a chill down Ayana's spine. Could this woman be Robert's wife?What puzzled her was why Robert had suddenly reappeared after six years, pursuing her and their daughter, especially if he had a wife—a pregnant wife, no less.The revelation left Ayana grappling with a myriad of emotions—bewilderment, frustration, and a gnawing sense of unease. She couldn't comprehend why Robert would resurface after all this time, stirring up chaos and turmoil in their lives.The realization hit Ayana like a ton of bricks, her mind reeling at the implications. If this woman was indeed Robert's
