I felt my mouth hung open but I don't have the strength to press them together nor take a step away from anyone else. Mabuti nalang at kinaladkad na ako ni Rawl. Dinala na niya ako sa sasakyan at pina-andar na agad ito. It took me so long to respond. Then realization hit me up. 

Kaya pala hindi niya ako sinusundo sa bahay kapag walang duty si Tita Viana at nasa bahay lang ito. 

I'm too dumb not to realize things up.

That is why she said that she knew Czesar too well. 

That is why Lau looked so shocked when I told her things about Czesar's mom. 

“Salamat.” it was only the word that came out on my mouth.

“Pupunta ka pa rin ba?” nag-aalala niyang tanong sa kaniya. He took a glance at me and focus on driving again.

    “W-why is my mom here?” I faced at Czesar and asked him.“Mom—what?!”“That wife that you're telling about your dad! That's my mom!” I yelled at him before I could feel someone grab my arm away from those people.I was crying the whole time until we arrived home. I didn't spoke a word at Rawl not even thanks. I ran to my room quickly and burst out. I cried so hard until I felt tired and decided to sleep.The next day, I woke up feeling sick with a puffy eyes. I looked like a hundred times haggard. Good thing it's already vacation. Ayaw ko pa namang pumasok na namamaga ang mata, sana nga lang rin walang nangyaring kaguluhan kagabi, sana walang ibang nakarinig sa usapan. It would be a bad news.I didn't bother to open my phone and directed go to shower. I need a long hot shower. Good thing that I almost had a kitchen in my room that I have my own heater here so I could make my own co

    "Natug ka?" out of my frustration, it was almost a joke when I said it.He was about to burst into a laugh but I glared at him so he stopped himself and fake a cough."Sorry, can't help."I only rolled my eyes at him. Lumayo ako kakaunti sa kanya para umupo doon sa parang may bench kaharap ang dagat. God, I can stay here like forever. This is the view that I've been dying for.Imagine, having a tiny house near on a seaside alone. Free to do what you'd love to. Heaven. Just by looking at the sea inspires me to do better, to have a better day.That is one of the reasons why I am saving my money. Maybe at eighteen, I can buy my own lot and build a tiny house on a seaside."By the way ga. I remember, you are interested at our city lot right?" he asked. Doon ko palang siya nakitang tumabi na pala sa akin. I guess I've been dreaming too much.

    “Sorry for asking this stupid question but if you regret marrying dad, why did you marry him then in the first place?” I asked him with all the strength that I owned for a second.Now that it makes sense, I can't help but have questions in my head. Why?“Because I was already pregnant with your brothers,” she answered as she wiped her tears off.I couldn't even tell if she's saying the truth. All I could feel is her, lying.“Then why did you committed another mistake again?”“What mistake?”“Having me.”“No. You're not a mistake and all of you will never be a mistake.”I laughed. “Cut the drama Ma. So why? Why having us when you did not love dad? I know he committed a lot of mistakes but he's still our daddy.”“Because I had no choice! My parents were nowhere to find and he raped me. He raped me. Your father raped m

    “Congrats baby! You made it! You're already an agriculturist!” he congratulated me and kissed me on my cheek.“Thank you, finally.” I stated and smiled happily.“Dad is in the car. Let's meet him he can't able to stand, you know dad is getting old, arthritis.” Rawl said as he offered me the flower.“Gag0 ka pa rin talaga Kuya.” biro ko sa kaniya at pabirong hinampas sa kanya ang bigay niya sa aking bulaklak. “Where's your twin by the way?” I asked when I can't see even Namiels shadow starting from the program.“She's with dad's nurse, lumalandi na naman siguro ang gag0.” sagot pa niya at tumawa.“And your girlfriend?” I asked her again, talking about Lau. An old friend of mine.“Nowhere to be found.” he only replied and made our atmosphere silent.&nbs

    “Uhm. Excuse me, Dad, Kuya. Me and my friends are planning to meet right now.” I made an excuse again. Queen of Excuses! I laughed on my mind. I cannot help but to feel nervous too. I never expected to see the people whom I am hiding from. Well not exactly hiding, hindi ko lang sila gustong makita. Not because of anger, but the last time we saw each other might be the reason that made me feel it's awkward. “Oh?” Namiel asked, probably to tease me. By the way that he's looking at me, I know what he'd like to tell me. Namiel may always be cocky but his instincts were never be wrong. Kaya ayaw ko na lang rin siyang kontrahin minsan. Ako lang din ang maiinis kapag malaman niya ang totoo. “Oo nga, nakaligtaan ko lang kanina.” dagdag ko pa sa kanila. All of them were watching me, waiting for more excuses, I would say. Ev

    “Oh my goooood! They are so adorable!” hindi ko mapigilang sumigaw sa tuwa nang makita ko sila.I can't help but to pinch their cheeks one by one. They even giggled that made me pinch them more.Having a baby fever is no joke.They're more likely a year old to four years old kids. Ang lalaki na nila at saka ang dami ko na talagang utang dito sa kanila. Iniisa-isa ko silang binigyan nang yakap at halik sa pisngi habang hindi pa talaga ako nakakapigil na manggigigil sa mga bata. Buti na lang rin lumapit rin sa akin sila kahit hindi pa nila ako nakikita sa personal. Ang huling lumapit sa akin ay ang pinakabata sa lahat kaya kinarga ko ito sa aking bisig at isinayaw-sayaw.“Oh? Inggit ka?” a friend asked me for fun. “Gawa ka na ring sayo, graduate ka na rin naman!” she added then chuckled as she hugged her husband.&

    The next day came and as I opened my eyes, the first thing that came up unto my mind is the property title. Good thing that they're all in the dining table, eating their breakfast. They greeted their good mornings as I sat on my usual chair.“Uh. I saw an important paper on my desk, thank you by the way.” I said as they are looking at me.Namiel choked then I saw Dad glaring at him so he immediately drink his water.“Oh that.” Rawl cleared his throat then said. “Matagal na sana naming balak sabihin sayo kaso busy ka pa sa pag-aaral mo at ayaw naman naming magambala ka pa sa pag-aaral mo.”“You should have told me earlier so I could start the construction but it's fine. Thank you. I appreciate it like super a lot!” I thanked them again for the gift and we all went silent.“So what are your plan on that land? It's pr

  • Summer to Forget   Epilogue

    When I was a child, I find love stories cliche. Until my parents broke up, there, I hereby hated love.I was still a little when I became bitter. Whenever I see young lovers, I picked something and throw it at them. Until one day, I eavesdropped. They were talking about my Dad and someone's Mom who are now happy with themselves and doing their illegal deeds.“So the Señor Marcil was left for that Chiongson man? 'di na baleng iwan ang lalaking totoong nagmamahal sa iyo para lang sa negosyong druga? Nakakaawa naman iyong mga bata, lalo na si Tamila, kegandang bata na iyon.”Tamila Marcil. . .Starting that day, I started to ask some people about that girl but the girl was nothing but a home girl. She was over protected by her father and her two older brothers which are twins.Years passed by quickly for me because I guess I had fun, I had fun on

    Things between Czesar and I are getting better after he asked me to marry him. I actually got better too when I tried to put myself on my usual. Pero paminsan minsan ay hindi ko maiwasang makaramdaman nang pagkabalisa.I was also sad to think that I am one of the reasons why Czesar left the band. I knew that being on a band is his dream since he was a little. Hindi ko mapigilan minsang sisihin ang sarili ko kahit para na lang sa mga nakikinig sa kanila at sumusubaybay.As I looked at my reflection in the full-sized mirror. I can't help but to smile and feel pretty. We will be having our photoshoot for our wedding next week. I am here in my room with my make up artist and hair stylist. I am wearing a cream colored loose off shoulder long gown. The only detail of the gown was only at the upper part, it was like a cutted cloth from the same material that is used and the rest of it was plain. Inilugay lang ang maykulay kong buhok na

    As soon as I stepped unto our house, I looked for Dad's presence."Auntie!" tawag ko sa kasambahay namin. Naramdaman ko namang nakasunod si Czesar sa akin. Dala iyong ibang bagahe ko.Kakarating lang namin galing sa aming mahaba habang flight, kahit na pagod ay hindi ko pa rin maisawala sa isip ko iyong anunsiyong may sakit ang ama ko."Ate!" tawag ko ulit nang walang ni isa ang sumagot sa tawag ko."Ga, how many cars are there in the garage?" I asked him despite of panicking I managed to deliver it soft."Four. Tito's car isn't there." he answered and I muttered him thanks.Our three helpers we're all not here. They must be out with Dad. Nang wala talaga akong makita ni isa bahagya akong kinabahan hindi dahil nakabukas lang ang bahay na walang tao kung hindi dahil pare pareho silang lahat na wala rito. Even if I feel my knees wobbling, nakaabot a

    Hindi ko mapigilang magising dahil naalimpungotan ako nang may kamay na nakayakap sa akin at paa na nakatanday sa bandang binti ko. Insakto naman nang mapatingin ako sa bintana at nakitang may araw na.I unconsciously looked at his facewhen I heard him snore. I stopped myself from laughing and smiled. My hand went to his cheek until it went to his eyes and caress it.My eyes went down to his parted lips and touched it.I poked his cheek to wake him up but he didn't. Napagod siguro. Kaya imbes na gisingin ko siya dahan dahan na lang akong tumayo mula sa kinahihigaan ko ngunit bahagya naman itong gumalaw na tila bang hinahanap ako para may mayakap kaya hindi ko mapigilang matawa sa kaniya.And when he can't find me, I saw him panicked. His eyes opened quickly and when he saw me near on his feet, he sighed and gave me a warm smile. I am still covered with our

    The next few days I got busier as I processed my ticket and as I have to be with Bella for three days because we are planning to surprise Rawl with a video presentation and to reveal the baby's gender for his birthday. Good thing that Bella accepted my request as I promised to have my schedule free for also three days for our vacation on a resort that messaged me last week."I am sure that Rawl will cry once he will see this," I commented as we watch the video that kept us busy for about three days."Just don't forget to film his reaction, Tami! I and baby with surely be mad." and touch her baby bump.She hugged me before leaving our house early so I could prepare for my flight tomorrow. She would also prepare her things because she will be living here next month. After all, she is living alone since she got pregnant!I was in the middle of putting my clothes in the luggage when Namiel called. I grab

    My mouth hang open. "W-what?""Your order, Miss Gorg." he said again even if I heard him.My eyes automatically rolled at him and ask. "You are working here?""Yep." Popping the 'p'."But why?""So I could see you here from there." he pointed on the next building that I occupied as my office, where I spent most of my day.I frowned. "Idiot,""I know that you would not believe me but trust me, I am doing this for us. I'll probably kidding if I'd say I have no intention for us to get back together.""Oh. Trust me too when I'll say that you'll never get something from me. Tama lang na ibaon na sa limot ang mga nangyari noon. It wasn't worth any feeling from me, specially you." I said it with my eyes looking intently at him.I looked at their menu and chose. "Spicy

    "Kapal pa rin ah!" I told him but it was more likely a joke."Ikaw pa rin ah!" he mocked.Tumawa na lang ako tapos kinuha iyong pagkain at nagsimula nang kumain. I was just feeding myself then I remember, I used to fed him foods when he was driving the car.Should I feed him?Wouldn't it be awkward?I hope so."Open your mouth idiot." that was I only said and fed him."At last! Yuho!" he celebrated happily.If we were still together, siguro nabatukan ko na siya dahil sa kaingayan niya. Binuksan ko iyong stereo niya kahit walang pahintulot. Wala pa ring nagbago sa sasakyan niya, even the smell? It still smells good ang manly. Kahit siya, hindi pa rin nagbago iyong amoy niya."Ah." he murmured and opened his mouth so I could feed him again.The next day after I got home I

    “Wrong room.” sabi ko habang humihikab pa.I should be closing the door when he spoke again.“No ma'am. This is the room, room 108.” the delivery guy argued.I sighed before talking to him. “Sorry but I didn't order anything from your shop or resto. So please if you wouldn't mind, please leave because I still have a long hectic day. Thanks!” I told him before closing the door.Even if I am hungry, I wouldn't eat the food that I did not ordered, what if someone gave it to me and it has poison on it? Baka may taong galit sa akin, lalo na sa mga litratong kumakalat na iniidolo si Ash.I am planning to go on the shower room when I message arrived.Unknown:You kept me waiting hun, open the door and let's eat together..I looked at the ceiling, trying
