1-Inch ScratchGustong matawa ni Boris. It's confirmed. Ms. Miller is the only magic word to use against his big beast boss."What?! Why are you smirking like an idiot?"Napapakamot sa batok si Boris at sumeryoso ito habang nagkukwento tungkol sa nangyari kanina sa lobby.Suddenly, Hugo's expression turned dark. Bago pa ito magsalita ay inunahan na ito ni Boris."Boss, don't get mad. Ms. Miller doesn't want me to tell you about what happened. She just said, she understood why they did that, and she said. As an employee, they are just following the rules. You are my boss, kaya sinabi ko ito sa inyo."Unti-unting lumingon si Hugo kay Boris. "So, it was your fault, you did not keep an eye on Devi's arrival?"Boris was instantly rendered speechless. Gusto niyang sapakin ang sarili kung bakit pa ba niya iyon nabanggit sa boss niya eh maliwanag naman na sinabi ni Devi na okay lang ang lahat at huwag na nitong banggitin pa kay Hugo."B-boss. G-gumamit kasi ako ng banyo. H-hindi ko naman akala
CafeteriaIsang pagtikhim ang narinig ni Hugo at Devi. Agad sanang tumayo si Devi mula sa pagkakandong niya kay Hugo, but Hugo stopped her again."Sit still," anas niya kay Devi. Then he looks at Boris. "Come in."Pulang-pula ang magkabilang pisngi ni Devi at hind siya makatingin kay Boris. She really wanted to get up and leave, pero imposibleng makakaalis pa siya.When Boris comes out doon pa ni Devi hinarap si Hugo. "You really want to humiliate me to your employee."Kumunot ang noo ni Hugo sa sinabing iyon ni Devi. Hindi ito nagsalita. Napasinghap naman si Devi ng buhatin s'ya ni Hugo at ipinaupo sa gilid ng mesa nito. He then starts to disinfect her scratch on the upper of her collarbone.Devi pursed her lips when Hugo cleaned them with the isopropyl alcohol."Is it painful?" tanong nito ng maramdaman niya ang pagkislot ni Devi.Devi is the type of person who doesn't want to show her emotions or what she really feels to other people. Kaya umiling siya ng bahagya rito.Hugo narrowed
All ProvidedDevi and Hugo finally finish their meal. They smoothly take their meal not knowing that they are a hot topic in the whole Ivanov Corporation.Agad at biglang kumalat sa buong company ang pagkain ng dalawa sa cafeteria. Hindi rin nakalusot ang iilang pagkuha ng larawan ng dalawa habang kumakain. But some of them were warned by Boris and Hugo's personal bodyguards kaya bigla rin ng mga itong binura ang larawan, ngunit may isang nakalusot at agad iyong kumalat sa buong company. Good thing because only Devi's blurred face was shown. Kaya hindi na iyon pinabura ni Boris, but still, he warned the people who spread it not to do it again.Nagtataka man si Devi na biglang dumami ng dumami ang taong pumapasok sa cafeteria ay hindi niya iyon pinansin. Instead she just lazily rested her chin into her palm."Can I ask some favors to you?" Devi said looking cute at Hugo."Anything, just spill it," Hugo said wiping his mouth with the table napkin."Can you help me to investigate my mothe
Smith ResidentsDevi and Hugo were getting ready to go out from Hugo's office, but then Hugo was not yet ready to tie his tie, at napansin iyon ni Devi.Devi moves in front of him. "Let me,"Hugo removes his hands on his tie and he let Devi do it.Devi was serious, and Hugo smirked while looking at Devi."How I love seeing you become so clingy to me right now," suddenly, he said.Devi's hands stop what she is doing and then looks up at Hugo. "I am just helping because we are going to be late," saad ni Devi rito.Hugo continues to smile. "Why not admit it, honey?"Devi's eyes narrowed. Dahil bigla nga siyang napaisip sa tawag sa sa ginawa niyang iyon. Her cheeks blushed as she released Hugo's tie. "You can continue doing it to yourself, Mr. Ivanov."Devi is about to turn and leave when Hugo immediately snakes his arms around Devi's waist."Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore. Come on, continue, honey," he said.Devi sigh. "Be good," then Devi continues.After they are done. Luma
Dinner With The SmithEveryone was eating smoothly at the long and elegant table with so much delicious food being served."Devi, Xeliestine. You two girls eat and eat. Halos pareho lang kayo ng natawan. So very thin." halos ang mommy lang ni Xillin ang nagsasalita sa kanilang lahat."Mother, parang hindi ka pa nasanay sa akin," Xillin said to her mom while eating so little."Hija, I hope kung magaasawa ka man in the future, yung asawa mo mahihikayat kang kumain ng kumain. Look at yourself, you are very thin. Mas pumayat ka pa ata ngayon simula na ikaw na ang pumwesto sa trono ng daddy mo.""Mom, there is nothing wrong with me. I'm not thin or chubby. Saktong sakto lang ang katawan ko. And if I am going to marry someone, of course, I will obey him. That if kung may mahanap pa akong loyal, katulad ni Hugo kay Devi." sagot ni Xillin sa kanyang ina.Devi suddenly coughs at agad naman siyang dinaluhan ng tubig ni Hugo at hinagod sa likod.Xillin smirked and then looked suspiciously at Devi
Teasing And TeasingAfter dinner, Xesar called Hugo and Lucca upstairs in the study room to discuss something.May kutob agad si Devi na ang paguusapan ng mga ito ay ang tungkol sa nangyari kay Xillin at sa kanya sa gabi ng party.Xillin also dragged Devi into her room at doon sila sa preskong balkonahe ng silid nito naglagi at nagpapahangin.Xillin poured a red wine in the two glasses and she immediately handed the one glass to Devi."Kumusta na ang pakiramdam mo?" tanong agad ni Devi rito."I'm very fine. Gusto ko na nga bumalik sa trabaho, kaso mahigpit na pinagbabawalan ako nila mom and dad. They want to be sure that I am fine before going to work." sagot nito saka tumunga ng kaunting wine."That's good. They just worried about you." Devi said and also sipped her wine lazily."So, how are you? How is your injured foot?""They are fine. I can walk steadily right now.""I see... So, sino ang nag-alaga sayo pagkalabas mo ng hospital habang inbalido ka ng ilang araw?" walang tabas na t
A Bit TipsyHugo and Lucca's faces darkened when they heard all the statements of Xesar's most hired investigators. Detalyadong-detalyado ang lahat ng mga impormasyon sa pagtatangkang pag-kidnap kay Xillin sa mismong event ng BWA banquet.Hugo really wanted to take his revenge for Devi. They harmed his woman, and it was their big mistake.'How dare they do it!' Hugo thought.Hugo's bottom line is Devi. Whoever harms Devi, Hugo will take immediate action to settle the scores. Whatever it takes, Devi's safety is Hugo's top priority."Your enemy dares to harm my woman, Tito Xesar! I want to cooperate with your revenge for your daughter, for Devi." Hugo said darkening his glare while holding a glass of wine and cigarette on the other hand."Yes. Don't worry, hijo. Bibigyan ko ng hustisya ang ginawa nila sa dalawa. We can join forces with our revenge." pagsang-ayon naman ni Xesar."Let me also join, Tito," napatingin ang dalawa kay Lucca na parehong may hawak ng sigarilyo at alak. "For harm
Hugo's Possessiveness"A little," Devi said and leaned on Hugo's body.Cecile's eyes narrowed and look at Xillin. "You— You still not totally okay, Xelestine!""Mother, it's fine. Devi and I missed each other. And looked, I am fine. My injury is also healed, okay?"Hugo's eyes narrowed. At bahagya pa rin siyang naiinis kay Xillin. Lalo't pati si Devi ay isinama nito sa kanyang paglalasing."Tita, don't get mad at Xillin. Anyway, thanks for the delicious and sumptuous meal tonight. Hugo and I enjoy the food." Devi sweetly talks to Xillin's mom.Cecile smiled and leave her daughter. "You are welcome, hija. I hope, mauulit itong muli?""Sure, Tita. No problem. Just invite us next time." Devi said and smirked.After Devi kissed goodbye to Cecile and Xillin, Hugo and she proceeded to the car.Todo namang alalay ni Hugo kay Devi habang patungo sila sa sasakyan nito na nasa garahe.Devi smiles and looks at Hugo. "Hey, I am fine. Hindi ako lasing at kaya ko pang maglakad ng diretso at magisa."
MeasurementsNang matapos na ni Ruru kunin ang lahat ng measurements ng anim ay ibinigay na nito sa kanyang boss ang kanyang naisulat.Pinasadahan naman agad nito ang measurements nilang lahat. "Yna's measurements are a bit accurate of the wedding gown. Well, i-adjust ko lang ang kaunti sa may bewang dahil maluwang.""Really? So, pumayat ako ng kaunti. Well, of course, kailangan ko magpapayat ng kahit kaunti lang. Baka kasi ayaw ni boyfriend ng masyadong Chubby. Kaya I still need to lose weight a bit." wika ni Yna na nasisiyahan sa progress ng bahagyang pag-diet nito."Sugar, no need for you to lose more weight. You are sexy-chubby. Mas maganda ganyan ang size mo. Hindi ka naman masyadong mataba. And remember, kapag mahal ka tanggap ka kahit anu pa man."Yna nodded. "Pero, baka kasi ayaw n'ya at mas gusto niya ang regular size. So, ngayon pa lang babawasan ko na ang timbang ko, Tita."Yanzy frowned. "Mas bagay sa'yong ganyan. I think, Boris will not care about your size. But, okay, I
Never ExpectedNaupo na ang lahat matapos nilang magkamustahan at matapos ang pagkakilanlan ng lahat.Sitti opened her envelope. Inilabas nito ang sketch paper na nasaloob niyon. Isa-isa agad niyang inabot sa kanilang anim ang paper.Napamangha ang lahat sa nakalarawan na susuotin nila sa big fashion Event."The theme of the event is a wedding dress. So, I create something simple with a touch of elegance wedding dress. Ang nasa mga kamay ninyo ang mismong isusuot ninyo. Devi is my finale bride model. The first is Yna, followed by Alice, Sarina, Xillin, and then Yanzy. Now, kung matapos na ng team ko na i-adjust ang mga damit batay sa mga sukat ng katawan n'yo. Well, isusukat n'yo na ang damit on the other day. Please, I want you to meet me at 3pm sharp." Lumingon siya kay Devi. "Devi, I want you to provide me a venue kung saan tayo pwedeng mag ensayo." she demanded."Tita, may kilala akong mayari ng studio rehearsal, ako na ang bahala ho." Xillin said with a smile.Sitti nodded. "Alri
GodmotherDevi gathered her friends, Yanzy and Xillin for dinner. Kakarating lang kasi ng kanyang kaisa-isahang ninang na si Sitti sa Kana City. At walang sinayang na oras ang kanyang ninang kundi ang makipag meeting na agad upang makita nito ng personal silang anim.Katwiran nito ay para makuha agad nila ang sukat nilang anim. Para naman agad nito at ng kanyang team na resulba kung masikip o maluwang ang mga damit sa kanilang mga nakatawan. Kailangan na rin nitong magmadali dahil 3 days after ay gaganapin na ang big fashion event ng Kana City. Hindi naman sila mahihirapan dahil adjustment na lang ng damit ang aasikasuhin nila. Nagawa na nila ang mga damit at isinabay nila iyon sa paglipad galing Paris.Devi was thankful, dahil napapayag agad niya si Yanzy at Xillin. Si Yna naman ay excited, while Alice was hesitant. Dahil sa totoong buhay ay mahiyain ito pagdating sa maraming kamera. Ngunit napapayag rin niya ito. Si Sarina naman ay nagdadalawang isip, but then when she told her may
TorturedTarrik lay down Sarina in the bed. Naghiwalay ang labi nila at nagkatitigan silang dalawa ng mariin."Take off your clothes, Sarina."Sarina gulped at sinunod naman niya ito. Pagkahubad niya sa itim na damit ay agad niya iyong hinagis. She blushed when Tarrik looked at her naked body, at namumula rin siya habang nakatambad sa kanya ang kabuoang katawan nito na katulad niya ay isang saplot na lang ang natira."All." He said.Of course, because she is his bed warmer, dapat lang na sundin niya ang gusto nito. Hinubad niya ang kanyang panty."Spread your legs for me." He continued to make an order.Sunod-sunod ang paglunok ni Sarina. Even though she feels uncomfortable, of course, she still obeys him without any hesitation.Tarrik's eyes even show desires. Lumapit at tumayo siya sa gilid ng kama at pinakatitigan ang hubo't hubad ni Sarina.Sarina even blushed when Tarrik climbed on the top of her when he finished taking off his brief. Ramdam agad niya ang buong bigat ng katawan ni
UndressingSarina takes her shower for 30 minutes. Nanlalagkit na kasi siya at kating-kati na rin siya dahil sa alikabok at pawis na naghahalo-halo sa buong katawan niya. Masarap rin sa pakiramdam ang natural water na nanggagaling sa shower.When she's done, isinuot agad niya ang disposable panty na dala niya at ang malaki at mahabang itim na damit ni Tarrik na nakuha niya sa closet nito.Aside from the panty and shirt, she didn't wear anything. Bakit pa ba kung huhubarin lang din naman ni Tarrik ang mga iyon sa katawan niya.Kinakabahan siya habang nakatingin siya sa saradong pinto ng bathroom. Lumalakas rin ang pagtibok ng kanyang puso.It's not her first time doing it with Tarrik. Dahil simula ng mag 18 years old siya noon, kusa niyang isinuko kay Tarrik ang virginity niya. Tarrik at that time didn't resist anymore.Ang kapusukan nila noon ay nauulit at nauulit ng ilang beses. Pareho silang bata pa at mapusok. Good thing dahil hindi siya nabubuntis nito dahil na rin sa marunong si T
Bed WarmerTarrik frowned while she observed Sarina, dahil kani-kanina pa ito natutulala at para nasa malayo ang kanyang isipan. Tinawag niya ng isang beses ang pangalan nito ngunit parang hindi siya nito napapansin."Sarina!" Tarrik calls her while he clicks his fingers in front of her.Sarina's eyes blinked. "Y-yes? May sinasabi ka ba?""Ayaw mo ba ng kinakain mo? You can order again—""N-no... this is my favorite." Sarina said saka siya sumubo ang pagkain.Tarrik narrowed his eyes. "Anong iniisip mo? Do you have any problems?" tanong ni Tarrik rito.Sarina can't say no. Kasi bakit nga ba siya nakatulala kung wala na siyang problema. Kaya tumango na lang siya. Kesa naman sabihin niya na nakatulala siya dahil pilit bumabalik sa gunita niya ang sobrang pagka in-love niya rito noon na halos siya ang humahabol rito noon."What?""U-um, iniisip ko ang... ang matitirhan namin ni mommy bago siya makalabas ng hospital." Pagsisinungaling niya rito.Tarrik eyebrow lifted. "Didn't I tell you I
The Second KissThey silently take dinner after the waiter serves their meal. Ang in-order naman ni Sarina na masasarap na pagkain para sa mommy niya at sa nagbabantay ay pina-deliver na agad niya. She also informed her mom to wait for the food.Tarrik was eating, si Sarina naman ay kumakain ng tahimik, while she was eating and peeking slightly at Tarrik ay hindi na naman niya mapigilan ang maalala ang nakaraan.***After the kiss, hindi na tinantanan ni Sarina si Tarrik. Dahil na-offend siya sa sinabi ng babae na may gatas pa siya sa labi. Sarina changed her behavior and dressing. She slowly matured also sa ayos ng kanyang pananamit. Hindi lang isipin ni Tarrik na bata pa siya at hindi nababagay rito.Tarrik was trying to avoid Sarina. Ginawa niya ang lahat hindi lang ito makasalubong sa daan at masilayan, but Sarina is very stubborn.Sa isang iglap lang ay namalayan na lang ni Tarrik na hinahayaan niya itong sundan siya nito. Until one day, nakainom si Tarrik at hindi niya akalain na
The First KissTarrik was waiting for Sarina at the Kana Medical Hospital front parking entrance.Hindi nagtagal ay namataan na nga niya ito na papalapit sa kanyang kotse. Pumasok agad ito sa kotse niya.Binuhay agad ni Tarrik ang sasakyan. Saka lang niya pinaandar ng maikabit na ni Sarina ang seatbelt nito."How's your mom?" tanong rito ni Tarrik habang nagmamaneho."A-as of now ay okay na si Mommy, but under observation pa rin siya lalo at bahagyang mataas pa rin ang dugo niya. And... um, thank you. Nabayaran ko na ang bills ni mommy sa inalisan naming hospital.""May nagbabantay na sa mommy mo?" pangalawang tanong ni Tarrik.Sarina nodded. "Yes, kakarating lang ng dating kasambahay namin na malapit kay mommy.""That's good. Now, I am hungry, let's go first to the restaurant. Have you eaten your dinner?"Sarina shook her head. "Hindi pa." sagot niya rito.After their conversation ay hindi na muli nagsalita si Tarrik. Si Sarina naman ay bahagyang naiilang sa katahimikan nila sa loob n
Pregnancy TestTarrik and Lacyd got inside the house. Gabi na sa mga oras na iyon. Namataan agad nila si Yanzy na nasa living room area.Nag-angat agad ng tingin si Yanzy ng may naramdamang naglalakad patungo sa kanyang direksyon.Yanzy seemed waiting and holding tiny things in her hands at paulit-ulit nitong tinititigan ang bagay na iyon."Hi..." Lacyd gently smiles and looks at her.Yanzy's heart skipped a beat. Tumango muna siya kay Tarrik saka naman niya tiningnan si Lacyd. She frowned when she saw Lacyd's corner of lips. Namumula iyon at may bahid rin na natuyong dugo. Agad siyang lumapit rito."W-what happened?" tinanong niya ito.Lacyd shook his head. "Wala." And then he tries to cover it."Lacyd!""It's nothing, Yanz. Don't mind."Tarrik pursed his lips when Yanzy threw him a suspicious look."Alright, I punched him. You can't blame me. I want to avenge my cousin. Kuya ako kaya dapat lang turuan ng leksyon ang lalaking— alright, never mind. So, galit ka sa ginawa ko sa kanya?"
