She discovers that she also has a secret love for a Montenegro. How can he fight that love without hurting the other one ?
View MoreI have noticed something. So I looked at Ezekiel. He was eating and didn't want to listen to what was discussed. "That's why you, Ezekiel, Be smart. Work harder." "I am Dad," Ezekiel said with emphasis, and his jaw tightened. Senyora seemed to feel Ezekiel's irritation, so she changed the conversation. "So Chloe, what are you going to say to us?" Chloe grinned widely and leaned her face towards Manuel. "I'm happy because ...." "I'm so happy because I'm already one month pregnant." The clock seemed to stop, and I couldn't take my eyes off Chloe. It was as if I saw a ghost in what I heard. It's like my heart became a glass that broke one by one. I heard every each of them. I feel the pain with every break. "Really! My God! Hija? Really?!" Senyora said in disbelief. I can't look at Manuel. I know when I look at him, my tears will fall. "Yes, Mom!" Chloe said, sobbing. I heard their laughter and praise. I couldn't follow what the senior said to Manuel. I became numb. "Wai
I wake up early to avoid someone. Last night I could hardly sleep in the room. Now my problem is how to avoid them both. This is so hard. This is what I don't want. Manuel and I have no confirmation. Ezekiel is a playboy. He's engaged. I should avoid him. I've always avoided him because I've seen how he plays with the feelings of his women. Their vacation in Manila is over, and here they are again. My hair was still wet when I left the mansion. The driver wanted to take me, but I refused. "If only I could help you, Aurora. I'll probably stop in the second semester because we're going to Manila. "Huh? Why?" I said and put down the book I was holding. "Sister and I will work there first. It's hard here. You know there are no men among us. We don't know anything about the Hacienda, so we have nothing to do with it." "We will miss you, Maribel." They have been friends for several years. Princess is sad. I immersed myself in school and activities. We were also given a thesis to do
Is there anyone in this world who cares more than me? I grew up without parents. I only have grandma and grandpa. Now, they both left me. I understand their loss. I realized that maybe now they are in heaven. I also understood how my grandmother loved my grandfather. Tears welled up in my eyes as I fixed my clothes. Grandma was buried yesterday. At the same time as her funeral, Senior and Seniora decided to adopt me. If only someone else could help me, I would have refused. For now, only I can help myself. I looked around our tiny home. My heart breaks. Too much. I can return her every day and clean it. I got into the SUV that was waiting for me. Montenegro s driver picked up—sadness, nervousness, and regret. Many people want to help me and feel sorry for me. Many friends of their grandfather and grandmother sympathized with me, especially senior Juanito. As soon as the car entered the high gate of the mansion, my chest pounded. "We're here, Aurora." The driver said to me and
"You know your fiancee is here why did you kiss me?! What if we were seen? Manuel, I don't want to ruin your relationship." I said with emphasis. He tried to stop his voice from rising. His jaw clenched, and he looked away. "We just got along, but she's not my fiancee." "Why is she always here then?" Hey! I Do not know! Why did I even ask that? He took a deep breath and turned away. "I'll tell you this evening. Let's meet at the hut." "I do not want." I immediately rejected it. "We will meet. I will make you understand everything, Aurora." I shook my head and swallowed at the seriousness of his voice. "I-I don't-" "Aurora, I didn't sleep well last night, and I won't be able to sleep later if I don't kiss you." "I-It wasn't just a kiss." "If I'm the one to follow, I will do more than that." He hung up on what he would say, and his eyes went all over me. I closed my eyes tightly and just nodded. We will talk later. I will fix what needs to be fixed. I don't want to ruin a rel
My hand trembled as I placed the bracelet made of shells on top of Lolo's coffin. My tears fell little by little, and the sobs of my grandmother prevailed around me. Many sympathized with us. On the other hand, we are facing Montenegro. Senior and Seniora, while the Montenegro brothers are on the side. Next to Manuel is Chloe. They helped us a lot to give grandpa a suitable burial. "Berny, my husband. I wanna go with you." Grandma passed out on the ground while Grandpa's coffin slowly sank. I bit my lip and held back a sob. I grabbed grandma by the arm and pulled her. "G-Grandma, that's right." Those who attended were sobbing with their grandmother's grief. "No! Your grandfather said he'd guide you! He said you would go to college in Manila. He says-" I knelt and hugged grandma when I couldn't take it anymore—tearing my heart with pain. The happy times we had with my grandfather and grandmother are still etched in my memory. Grandma's friends helped me carry her. Little by
I was annoyed because of his sympathetic attitude. But still, I feel guilty for being rude to Ezekiel. I don't like him kissing me without my consent. "Kim Aurora, Will you come with me later? It's Erik's birthday. We are all invited. Later in the evening, around six." Princes said to me while grabbing the books to carry. When I went to college, I was busy with school. "Where will that be held?" I ask. "At the Makipot Resort." I frowned because the land of Montenegro covers all the resorts. I hesitated to nod, especially since I wasn't sure if I would be allowed, especially after what had happened to me before. Montenegro's managed to imprison Domeng even though his wife begged. I remained silent and grateful for their help. "I'm going to ask for permission, Ces. Because you already know. Grandma is too strict with me now." "Aurora, Erik is the daughter of the councilor! So we are safe there. Besides, I won't go if you don't go." I sighed and took a deep breath. "Alright! I
"I'm fine. I-I want to go home." The doctor treated my wounds. But I was more worried about grandma. Maybe what will happen to her when she finds out. His forehead was furrowed and his serious eyes were on me. The anger did not disappear from his expression. "Be here first hija. I've called your grandmother Tessa. She'll be here soon." Mrs. Patricia sitting next to me. There was concern on her face. I was ashamed of their help to me. "Thank you so much ma'am." I also looked at Manuel. I smiled at him sparingly. "Thank you too Manuel. I really didn't know that would happen like that. I trusted Domeng because he is from our village." My system became bitter. Mixed with anger and sadness. "You are no different from me, hija. Especially your grandfather Berny and grandmother Tessa. They serve the clan for a long time. So even in this way we can help in any way." Senyora's facial expression was soft. You wouldn't think she has a child because she still looks young . "Manuel? What's
What I saw stuck in my mind. It's been a week since I stopped going to the Montenegro mansion. We are also busy harvesting mangoes in the morning. In the afternoon I sleep for two hours and at four o'clock in the afternoon I start making beaded bracelets again. It's not made of shell because I don't go to the beach anymore. Because it was close to the mansion.I avoid getting close to it. First I lost my first kiss. And secondly, my chest tightens when I see Manuel kissing someone else or maybe it's because I'm just shocked that's why.I showered and got dressed. I sat on my own bed and took the money I had saved in the big purse from under the mattress. I started counting and found out that it was 800 pesos."The uniforms at Stella Maris Academy in town are 550 pesos. I still have 250 pesos . Maybe I just budget my money . " I said to myself and combed my hair.I only saved the whole harvest because sometimes we also buy a little groceries from Grandma Tessa.I put on a brown vest an
I never told grandma Tessa what happened to me in the Montenegro mansion. I also lied and said that I borrowed the dress of a fellow haciendera because I was short on my dress.I’m here now at the beach and picking up shells. Apart from the shells I also found different colored stones. I also picked up that additional decoration for the necklace and bracelet I would make made of shells.Every time I pick up I put in a plastic bag. The sun is hot and my skin is a little sore. But because I used to feel like I just didn't have it.In the distance I could see the mansion. II slowly approached the stone steps of the Montenegro’s mansion.Their mansion was at the top of the hill. The bottom is surrounded by rocks where the bottom is beach and vast sea. On each side of it there are rows of sun loungers that maybe they assume.I slowly went upstairs. But I heard some voice. I stiffened when I heard the woman's soft voice. On a plant full of flowers. I hid there and searched for the noise.Th
In a province of Manila. There is a prosperous and peaceful town. It is hidden and the very end where the expanse of the ocean can be seen. Where to see the beauty of the mountains.Here I grew up and saw the gradual growth of Hacienda Montenegro. I am one of those who help make organic mats, backpacks, chairs made of solid wood from the mountains of our town.I can say I am content with provincial life here. Abundant in living and natural resources. My grandparents raised me when my father and mother died in a forest fire. Because our house was in the middle of the forest , they did not survive the relentless fire.I was eleven years old when I was orphaned and adopted by my grandmother and grandfather and brought here from the mountains. They had no one with them, especially since their only child was my Father. I help my grandfather harvest rice. I help make a backpack and a mat for grandma once in a while. That helped my studies because of the money raised from there.Many of them
