I was busy typing on my laptop when Ellisa approached me. She has a serious look on her face and I can also tell something is going on. She has dark circles under her eyes and her usual braided hair is in a messy bun.
"What's going on?"
"I need to send you on a minor mission. I received an intel that there is an illegal armory warehouse nearby." She handed me a folder and I looked at it.
"Shall I start preparing?"
"You better be. Ken is going with you. Don't worry about Asher, he's already sleeping in your room."
"Thanks."
I started preparing by changing my usual battle suit. I've decide

AngelaIt was Monday morning and I can't help but to think about what happened last night. I was preparing to go to work when Asher knocked on my door. "You can come in."Pumasok na siya sa kwarto ko at dala-dala pa niya ang teddy bear nya."Mommy, can I go with Tita Mira in the Cafe? Then they said that they will take me to the park in the afternoon.""Sure. Just remember to bring your extra towel just in case you will play with your tita.""Opo."He climbed up to my bed before laying down. He is looking at me with his sleepy eyes. "Mommy are you okay? Kanina ka pa po bumubuntong hininga." tanong ni Asher sa akin habang kinukusot ang mata niya."It's nothing honey. You can go back to sleep.""You're bothered about something."Napatigil ako sa pagsusuklay ng buhok ko. I sat down beside him and tuck him my blanket. "Don't worry about me. I'm okay.""Mommy be strong, okay? I know that you are strong, and I know that you know that. But it seems like there are times that you tend to fo

Rence "You've been out of it lately." I looked at Ian who's cooking in my kitchen. He decided to barge into my condo unit because of what happened in the past few days. "Who wouldn't? The major investors want to hold another meeting, there are minor investors who pulled out their investments, and my secretary is suspicious." I sighed and looked at my ceiling. "Then why don't you just fire her?""I don't know. There's something about her." "You already hired a private detective to dig up information about her. And you already had that information." "I know but it's not enough. How come she doesn't even have any information about her past? All that I know is she's from Baguio and she's getting part time jobs that only last for weeks or days. But this time, it's different. She's been working at the company for months." "And you don't think that it's suspicious? Aside from having no information other than that." I didn't answer him and went instead into the kitchen to help him p

Angela "Asher, please be careful! Huwag ka masyadong tumakbo, baka madapa ka. Hindi naman tayo nagmamadali." "I know, Mommy. I know! I'm just so excited!" It was Saturday and it's my day off both in the company and in the organization. Asher keeps on insisting to go to the mall. Since kailangan na rin namin makapamili ng mga gamit nya sa school, sinamantala ko na rin para maipasyal siya. "Alright, alright." Nasa byahe pa lang ay masyado na siyang excited. He even told me what he wants to do and what are the things that he wants to buy since he's going to be a kindergarten student in this coming school year. I enrolled him in a prestigious school since the agents insisted on it. Bei

Angela It's been two weeks and everybody in the company is busy since the product launch will be tomorrow night. Everyone is doing their own work and the office is almost in chaos. "Angela! Pinapatanong ni Ian kung naayos na ba yung mga products?" Evie asked while she’s on the phone. "Yup. It has been settled at pwede na dalhin sa venue mamaya for display." "How about the gifts?" "The production team is still preparing it. Can you do me a favor and follow that up? I still need to pick Ms. Diana from the airport." "Sure thing," she gave me a thumbs up before waving goodbye. Inayos ko na ang mga nasa table k

AngelaIf yesterday was already hectic, I guess our situation was thrice as hectic as yesterday. You can see employees running back and forth, while some were already frustrated since they were being scolded by their team leaders.I was running from floor to floor and ended up wearing a pair of fluffy slippers instead of my pointed heels.I was about to enter the elevator when three personnels approached me. They were handing me folders and all of them seemed desperate."Angela, can you take these documents to Mr. Lawson? We badly need his signatures.""Angela, are you going with us to have a final check on the venue?""Angela, there w

Angela Everything was set and I was wearing a uniform for the servers. My hair is tied into a clean bun with a ribbon and net in order to mix up with the real servers in the event. Hindi naman magkakaroon ng problema na may makakakilala sa akin dahil required magsuot ng face masks ang mga servers. I'm also wearing a black contact lens to hide my hazelnut eyes. Ellisa also made some adjustments such as making my eyebrows look naturally thick before she left. "Are you sure no one will recognize you with that?" Ken asked and took a quick glance at me while he was driving. He is also wearing the same uniform as me since he will be helping me with this task. “Your boss, workmates, even your brother and parents will be ther

AngelaWhat happened in the product launch made big news in the Fashion Industry. But our legal team took an action to prevent further problems and implications on the company.“I really wished you saw how Mr. Andrews begged when he was being dragged away by the security.”I smiled and took a sip from my cup of coffee. Evie flipped her hair and leaned towards me, so I did the same.“His daughter was bawling her eyes out so she was also dragged away. She’s claiming that she’s Mr. Lawson’s fiance,” Evie whispered.“Where did she even get her confidence?” she added.“Maybe

AngelaI was busy making chamomile tea when Asher approached me.“Mommy, is there something wrong?”I looked down at him and picked him up to put him at the counter top. He looked at me puzzled.“It’s nothing, baby. Mommy is just thinking about something.”He tilted his head looking even more puzzled than earlier.I chuckled and softly pinched his cheeks.“You don’t have to worry about me. You should sleep since Tita Ellisa will pick you up tomorrow. You have to stay in the headquarters since no one would be

AngelaIt was early in the morning and I immediately got up when I noticed Asher wasn’t beside me. Fear crept into my system and I instinctively grabbed my gun at the night stand and swiftly moved out of the bedroom.“Good morning, mommy!”Nabitiwan ko ang hawak kong baril nang makita ko Asher sa counter top na naghahalo ng tsaa niya.“Asher!” mabilis ako nagpunta sa kaniya at yinakap siya nang mahigpit. “Akala ko kung ano ang nangyari sa iyo. Wala ka sa tabi ko pag gising ko.”“Don’t worry about me, Mommy! I was just making my morning tea, and I’m making you one too! I’m also making a toast so you should just sit there,

Angela“Are you still going to resign?”I looked at Ellisa as she entered the balcony and handed me a can of whiskey. I looked at the city lights illuminating the place.We’ve decided to move out of my previous apartment since it would be dangerous for us to stay there. Mabilis ang naging paglipat namin ni Asher dahil kaunti lang naman ang gamit namin sa apartment dahil karaniwan naman kaming nasa headquarters ng organization.“I’ve changed my mind. I need to stay here. As long as Dia has Ashley, I won’t be able to move out.”“So, you’re still not planning to tell Rence all of this?”

AngelaThe box fell out of my hands as I also fell into the ground. My whole body was shaking and I stared at the picture. The little girl from the picture was playing and I can clearly see her face.“Mommy!” Asher was shaking me and I just looked at him. I can see panic from his eyes but I can’t even let out a single word.This can’t be. Ashley died years ago and it was confirmed by the hospital.My tears started to fall and my senses became dull. Before I knew it, someone slapped me hard.It made me go back to reality and I realized I was already inside the apartment. Asher was behind Ellisa, who just slapped me with a worried lo

AngelaI am currently in the ICU and looking at Kuya Angelo. He’s still unconscious but Ken just told me that they will be moving him into a new room this day.“Mommy, is he gonna be okay?”I looked down at Asher and he’s also looking at him. There were tears in his eyes, and it breaks my heart more.“He will be. He promised to play with you, right?”“Yeah, but he should really take a good rest. He has a lot of wounds, and I know that hurts.”I sat on his level and brushed some hair strands that covered his eyes.“Are you going to help me take care of your

RenceI stared at my phone and kept refreshing my email a few times, thinking that I just read Angela’s message wrong. But it is clearly stated in the email that she is filing for a three day leave. Hanggang sa makalabas ako ng kwarto ay nakakunot pa rin ang noo ko.“Casimir, ang aga aga, bakit ganyan ang mukha mo?”Napalingon ako sa nagsalita, and I saw my dad sitting by the counter top drinking a cup of coffee. I took a quick glance around my condo and saw his luggage by the door. Looks like he really came.“Dad, it’s so early in the morning. Why are you nagging me?” I grabbed my cup and prepared my tea. If Angela’s not at the office, that only means I have to take my tea now. She will not be t

Angela“Rence, my target,” I felt my voice begin to crack. “He’s Asher’s dad.” I looked at her and there I couldn't even see any emotions in her face or eyes. I guess it’s already a part of her. I guess that’s what makes her the current head of the organization. There are higher ups but they only act as a guide, and they mostly observe our decisions. They never intervene unless needed. Afterall, the higher ups are the retired elites.“Aren’t you supposed to tell Rence this right now instead of me?”She continued moving around and I just stood right here in my place speechless.“Look, Angela. If he is indeed Asher’s dad, he has the right to know.”“He will take him away.”&nbs

AngelaProbability of Paternity: 99.9999%Patuloy pa rin ang panginginig ng kamay ko at paulit-ulit binabasa ang papel na hawak ko. Nalukot na lang iyon dahil na rin sa higpit ng pagkakahawak ko.Dali-dali kong kinuha ang laptop ko at ipinatong iyon sa table ko. Pero nang buksan ko iyon ay natulala ako.How am I supposed to find information from several years ago? Where do I even start? From the incident at the bar? Rence’s background information that I already have a background with? The legibility of the test?Ihinilamos ko ang kamay ko sa mukha ko at huminga nang malalim. I am still shaking and I glanced at Asher who’s still sleeping soundly.

Angela“Finally! You’re here!”Hindi pa man din ako nakalalapit ay nabatukan na agad ako ni Ken.“I thought you'd be home before 7 p.m.! Asher is already asleep in your quarters. He’s been waiting for you. Your brother may still be in a coma, but he’s been showing a little bit of improvement. Seems like he's a fighter.”“I’m sorry. I was all over the place earlier and I didn’t notice we were already on our way to Tagaytay,” I gave him a paper bag before slyly smiled at him. “Sorry. Although I can’t promise I won’t do it next time. I still need a lot of favors from you.”Kinuha niya ang paper bag sa akin at inakma pang ihahampas sa akin. He gritted his teeth, “You shoul

Rence We were on our way back to the parking lot when Angela asked me for the car keys and I just looked at her confused. She just sighed before looking at me directly into my eyes, “I’ll drive us back. You should take a rest.” “I can drive. You’re the one who should take a rest.” “I insist. Don’t worry I won’t crash the car with you in it.” She cracked a smile at me and I just shook my head in defeat before handing her the keys. I gave her a smirk and jokingly said, “So you’re saying that you would crash my car if you’re driving it alone?” “It depends on my mood. If you pissed me off when that day comes, I would probably crash it.” “You’re crazy.” “And you’re bossy.” I just laughed at her and went inside the car. It was rush hour when we were driving back to the company. And honestly, the lo fi music that Angela played made me more sleepy. “I told you that you can sleep. It’s a long drive.” “That’s why I need to stay up. I don’t want to feel alone when you’re driving.”
