Wounds
Erille's POV
"Sinong may birthday bukas?" Tanong ko habang sinusubuan si Tabitha ng lugaw na binili ko sa labasan. Malamig kasi lalo ang panahon ngayon sa Baguio kaya mas masarap kumain ng mainit na lugaw.
"Me!" sagot ni Tabitha habang patuloy pa rin sa pagdradrawing, ngumiti ako at inayos ang buhok niya habang patuloy siyang ngumunguya.
Napalingon ako sa hagdan ng bumaba na si Louen habang inaayos ang kanyang uniform, "Papasok na ako" sambit niya bago hinalikan sa pisngi si Tabitha at kinuha ang baon na niluto ko para s
DOWN"Tubig El" I glanced at Rie as she tapped my back and handed me a bottle of water, she urged a smile and tried to lighten the mood.Hinawi ko ang buhok ko paitaas bago ito tinanggap at uminom ng konti, nasa loob pa rin hanggang ngayon sila Lynus, hindi ko magawang lunukin ng maayos ang tubig na ininom ko dahil patuloy pa rin ang pagtibok ng mabilis ang puso ko.Natatakot ako at naiinis dahil pinabayaan ko si Tabitha, hindi ko na sana siya pinayagan lumabas."Umupo ka nga!" napalingon ako kay Six ng bigla niyang hilahin paupo sa gitna namin si Erille, "Aray!" singhal ni Rie sa kanya bago ako hinara
Back"Tabitha"Agad kong iminulat ang aking mga mata ng marinig ko ang malakas na sigaw mula sa itaas, mabilis na kinain ng kaba ang aking buong katawan dahil sa sigaw na iyon.Tumakbo ako ng mabilis, bawat hakbang ko ay tila parang sobrang layo ng aking silid at tila ang tanggal kong nakapunta doon, bawat tibok ng aking puso ay katumbas ng nakakamatay na sakit."Tabi!" sambit ko ng makita ko ang aking anak na tila namamalipit sa sakit, "AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" sigaw siya ng sigaw habang pilit hinahawakan ang kanyang ulo, my body weakens as I see her suffering in pain.
Tease"M-Mommy" mabilis akong bumangon sa pagkakahinga sa tabi ni Tabitha ng marinig kong tawagin niya ako, nagkamalay na siya. "Tabi!" I utter, that makes Six and Erille wake up and instantly stand up.I automatically called the nurse to check her up, she didn't let go of my hands and while she's being checked hindi ko mapigilan lumuha, good thing she's awake. Thank God. I was just staring at her the whole time she's being checked.She urge a smile and show me her hand with an Ok sign and wink, that touches my heart and tears overflow even more, hinawakan ni Rie ang likod ako kaya mas sumandal ako sa kanya.
PASSION"Kailangan natin dalhin sa hospital si Tabi" hindi na hinintay ni Six ang susunod kong sasabihin at agad itinakbo palabas ng condo si Tabitha.Sumunod kami ni Rie, habang nagsisimula na naman manginig ang aking mga kamay. We all run fast and as we arrive in the parking lot agad binuksan ni Six ang sasakyan at pinasakay ako sa back seat bago ibinigay sa akin ang namamalipit sa sakit na si Tabi.I bite my lower lip as she keeps struggling with the pain inside her head in my bare arms. She started shedding tears. Wala akong magawa kundi hawakan lang siya at hintaying makarating kami sa hospital."Ouchiieeeee" Tabi reached for my hand and put it on her head, thinking that it could ease the pain she's in right now,
BREATHIN"You, you love it how I move you, you love it how I touch you, my one, when all is said and done, you'll believe God is a woman, and I, I feel it after midnight a feelin' that you can't fight, my one, it lingers when we're done, you'll believe God is a woman" fire of passion is running inside my nerves right now, the way I move my hips and waist in front of everyone.I could feel the electricity that this kind of passion sends me, every grip on the pole, every trick setting me on blazing hostile. Heat from every beat of the music jammed my whole system, I could only move as the music told me to move.Rowdy sound, cheer, clap, and perversely whi
CAMEErille's POVNatapos akong sumayaw ng dalawang music, at masasabi kong medyo malaki ang kinita ko ngayong gabi, malaking tulong ito para kay Tabi. bumababa ako ng stage at mabilis na tumuloy sa itaas para puntahan si Louen.Ang usapan namin walang ganito, sasayaw lang ulit siya. Paakyat palang ako ng hagdan ay agad ko siyang nakasalubong, "Anong nangyari sayo?" hinawakan ko ang magkabila niyang braso ng tanungin siya, dahil namumutla siya at halos namumuti na ang labi niya.
ENOUGHLynus's POV"Lynus apo, y-you came" As soon as I touch her hands, her eyes open, urging a sweet small smile, as I lean down and kiss her forehead. "Hi" I whisper and smile at her.My heart felt heavy as I stared at her, she lost weight, she looked pale and weak, "I miss you apo"she whispered and smiled at me, the way she smiled was so genuine."How are you feeling?" I ask and caress her hand, she nodded and slowly closed her eyes, "I feel weak apo, I think you are all I need to see before I take my
YOUNG NIGHTAs I enter the club and head straight to the staff room, agad kong hinanap si Erille pero wala siya dito, kahit ang gamit niya wala kaya mabilis akong tumayo at tumuloy sa office ni Ma'am Cherille."Oh, El bakit hindi ka pa nag aayos?" bungad niyang tanong sa akin pagpasok ko sa loob, "Tatanong ko lang po sana kung nasaan si Rie?" I ask."Ah si Justine nagpaalam siya kani-kanina lang may pupuntahan daw siya kaya hindi siya makakapasok" Kumunot ang noo ko dahil doon, bakit hindi niya ako sinabihan. "Ah ganon po ba, thank you po" I utter and step outside her office and instantly grab my phone to call Rie.
PARENTSCybelle's POV"Kids are already asleep" I said, as I stepped inside our room, after dealing with Louen and Ashton. They never stop playing inside their rooms.Milo put his laptop on the side of the bed, looking at me while taking off those glasses. "You look pale, are you ok?" he gently asks, as he instantly reaches my head and guides me to lay beside him.I let out a deep breath before I answered, "Maybe, the kids are growing up, their energy is boosting up even more, I can't cope up anymore." Milo chuckled at my answer and he started rubbing my head.
THE GREATEST STRIPPER EPILOGUE3 years later,I step out of the door, slowly walk towards the pole and the music starts playing."I've seen the world, done it all, had my cake now, diamonds, brilliant, and Bel Air now, hot summer nights, mid-July when you and I were forever wild, the crazy days, city lights, the way you'd play with me like a child" I grip tight on the pole as I let out some gravity off my body and slowly lift up my body.I move so slowly and follow the wave tone of the music, a maxime trick above the pole. Those dark eyes were locked into my body movements. The way I sway my body around the pole my hair keeps following."Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautif
FINALSabrille's POV"You never trust me Dad!!!" I yelled at his face and in a few seconds, a hard slap hit my face. "You reckless child! You never listen to me!!! You're just like your mom, piece of shit" he was about to slap me once again, in front of all his guests when Timothy stood in front of me and received his slap instead.Everyone gasped when they saw Timothy get slapped by my dad. My lips parted as tears spread all over my eyes. "T-Timothy" I uttered and he gently held my hands and looked at me. "Let's go" he whispers and in just a glimpse we run away from that place where all of judgement are on me.
TABI"LEUSAM PLASE LET GO OF ME, MY DAUGHTER NEEDS ME" I weakly said and broke down, fell on the floor and cried.He slowly let go of my hands and asked, "What did you say?" I was a whisper of confusion."My Tabi needs me" nanghihina kong sambit, awang-awa na ako sa anak ko, she doesn't deserve this, she never deserves any of this. My poor Tabi, this is all my fault."K-kailangan a-ako ng a-anak ko" halos hindi ko na mabigkas ng maayos ang sasabihin ko dahil sa sobrang pagiyak ko, pagmay nangyaring hindi maganda sa kanya hindi ko mapapatawad ang aking sarili.
PAIN"L-Lynus""What happened?""Get those fucking hand off my women" Leusam darkly said behind us, but I'm crying so hard and didn't look at him."Jimenez?" Lynus utter."Let go of my women right now, Herrera!" Leusam darkly said and I felt his grip on my waist pulling me away from Lynus, but Lynus didn't let go of me."Your women?" Lynus intensely asks and gently tightens his grip on my wrist trying to pull me closer while Leusam is reigning on me, he is wrapping his arms on mine."Yes, my women!" Leusam said in a powerful tone and in just a snap I was already in
REGRETSErille's POV"Kanina ka pa ba nandito?" agad kong tanong kay Jackson pagkaupo ko sa kanyang harapan, nagtext siya kaninang umaga na magkita daw kami ngayon gabi kaya iniwan ko muna si Tabitha kay Six."No, I just arrived also, so, what do you wanna eat?" he gently said as he smiles at me, pinanood niya ang bawat galaw ko habang inaayos ko ang buhok ko at ang bag ko sa aking kandungan."Kahit ano" sagot ko sa tanong niya kaya tumawa siya, "I know you would say that" sambit niya at tila natutuwa siya sa sitwasyon naming dalawa, kunot noo ko lang siyang tiningnan bago siya tumawag ng waiter at umorder ng pagkain."We would like to ha
PREMISES"Mommy" My lips parted and my eyes narrowed as my daughter called me, in front of him. I was stiff the whole time, it was like a slow-motion scene when Leusam faced me and met my gaze.This is the end of my sacrifices, halos hindi umiikot ang mundo ko ng mag tama ang aming mga mata, he looks at me with unlighted gaze before he slowly stood up and hold Tabi's little hand.My whole body was wobbling inside and out because of this intense situation, Wala na akong takas ngayon. Nagsimulang mangilid ang aking mga luha ng pagmasdan silang dalawa na magkasama.Tabitha really has her father's genes, "
FEARR18"Ahmmm Leusam" I softly whisper, my lips touching the shell of Leusam's ear. Wrapped my arms on his neck and breathed heavily."Fuck" I could feel his warm breath against my chest as he looks down and pushed deeper. He touched my waist, caressed it while guiding it at the same time. Guiding it well to meet his thrust.He reached for my right hand with his, and put it into his face. He wanted me to touch his face while thrusting and pounding me
