-(AXZIE GENEVIEVE FORSYTHE POV)-~❃~Kasalukuyan kaming kumakain ng tanghalian ng mga kasama ko na nago-OJT rin sa canteen. Ngunit, hindi matanggal tanggal sa isip ko ang bruhong iyon. He was intimidating and he had my mind pondering on why he’s acting like that.Baka ganun talaga ang ugali niya. Who knows what his true personality might be, right?His cognac brown eyes, thick curly eyelashes, thick eyebrows, a perfectly pointed nose, thin red lips, a chiselled jaw, and flawless skin. I can also tell he has a perfect shape dahil matipuno ito.Pogi na sana kaso masungit. Sayang lang kung hindi siya magkakaroon ng asawa. Yun pa naman ang tipo ng mga babae ngayon."Huy Axzie, nakita mo na ba yung bagong CEO?" Tanong ni Jelai, isa rin sa mga kasama ko sa OJT.“Hindi yun bagong CEO. Siya talaga ang naghhandle dito.” Sagot ko bago sumubo ng pagkain.“Eh? Akala ko bago siya. Ngayon ko lang kasi nakita ang mukha niya dito.” Sagot nito sa akin."Hay naku, napaka sungit nga niya eh. Biruin mo,
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~✵~Bwisit na asthma na to, sumusumpong nanaman. Kung kailan wala si Silas ay noon pa ako sinusumpong.I continued my work kahit na medyo mabigat ang pakiramdam ko, my vision is getting blurry dahil nahihirapan na naman akong makahinga. My chest felt like it was being gripped tightly as I tried to breathe. If only Emy was here, she'd definitely know what to do.Fuck, why am I even thinking about her? Move on, Lal. Move on…Patuloy sa pagsikip ang aking dibdib kaya kahit na nahihirapan ako, tumayo ako at sinigaw muli ang pangalan ni Axzie. Wala akong choice kundi tawagin ito dahil ang cubicle na kung saan ito ay nagtatrabaho ay malapit lang sa opisina ko.Dali dali naman itong pumasok sa office ko na may dalang nebulizer and nebule."Sir, eto dinala ko na para di ka na mahirapan." Bakas ang pag-aalala sa tono nito bago niya isalin ang nebule sa medicine cup.“Paki-bilisan, Axzie.” Saad ko as I sat down on my swivel chair.“Opo.” Sagot nito na nagmamad
-(AXZIE GENEVIEVE FORSYTHE POV)--✵-Bumangon ako ng maaga dahil may trabaho pa ako. Kahit na masakit ang ulo ko, ipinagpatuloy ko pa rin at desidido akong magtrabaho.Lalo na kung ganun ka gwapo ang boss mo, talagang gaganahan kang pumasok.Naligo ako at tiniis ang malamig na tubig na dumadaloy galing sa shower. Nagbihis na rin ako ng simple black jeans at plain sleeves dahil hindi ko pa nalabhan ang pencil skirt ko.Tinernuhan ko na rin ng simpleng stilettos ang aking suot at nagapply ng light makeup bago bumaba ng hagdan."Good morning dear, kumain kana." Sambit ni Dad na nasa sala habang nagkakape."Good morning ho Dad." Sagot ko naman bago ko halikan ang ulo nito."Oh, aalis kana? Hindi ka ba papasok sa school?" Tanong nito nang makita akong papunta sa harap ng pinto."Wala po kaming pasok ngayon pati kakain na lang ho ako sa labas." Sagot ko bago tuluyang umalis ng bahay.“Mag-iingat ka papunta sa trabaho mo, anak ko.” Saad nito bago ko isara ang pinto.Pumara na ako ng taxi pag
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)--❁-It was lunchtime at kasalukuyan akong tumitingin sa past reviews and present reviews tungkol sa sales ng kumpanya. Wala rin akong ganang kumain ngayon dahil hindi mawaksi sa aking isipan ang nangyari sa pagitan namin ni Axzie, still wondering why the heck did I do that. I kissed a woman who I barely knew and all, and it was frustrating on to why I kept thinking how soft her lips were, how she responded so quickly, how she gripped my hair and all… but the unexpected part was the whole time I kissed her, all I saw was my wife. My Emy...I thought it was her... I imagined her, I thought she was here, I didn't think that it was Axzie who I was kissing, but her...All I thought of was her... here in my arms.Binitawan ko ang mga papel na hawak ko sa desk bago sumandal sa swivel chair, running my hands over my face as I forced myself to forget about what happened a while ago. If only she was here, maybe I shouldn’t have done that. Maybe the reason why
-(SERAPHINA AMETHYST VERDANIO POV)--❃-“Shit, why aren’t you picking up?” I mumbled as I ended the call.Ilang beses na akong tumatawag rito ngunit hindi niya sinasagot. Nasa gitna ako ng traffic na kung saan nagdesisyon ako na pumunta sa bahay nina Emy. Since it was Saturday, I have nothing else to do at the condo where we're staying to the point it got me bored. So the timing was definitely perfect.As I drive, may nadaanan akong isang bakeshop on which na naisipan ko itong bilhan ng kanyang paboritong crinkles and brownies para naman matuwa ito. The traffic wasn't heavy like it used to, maybe because it was weekends kaya binilisan ko ang pagpapatakbo ng kotse upang makarating agad roon.Nang makarating ako sa harap ng bahay nila, something seemed off for me. The outside of the house was scattered with dried leaves, the plants almost dying and it's like no one lived here anymore.I got out of the car and went to the front door, pressing the doorbell a few times before it opens t
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)--❃-Who would’ve thought na hahantong ako sa ganitong sitwasyon? Me? Satisfying myself with another woman just to let this lustful feeling out of my system.Pero aatras pa ba ako kung ganun na pareho naman kaming makikinabang sa isa’t isa? Maybe… I let her kiss me so hungrily before I decided to lift her up, her figure sitting on my lap as I sat down on the couch.“Oh, Lal.” Saad nito nang yakapin ko siya habang hinahalikan ko ang kanyang leeg.“You like that. Don’t you, Sera?” I whispered before biting her earlobe.“Easy, big boy.” Sagot nito which made me laugh softly.“Big boy, ey?” Saad ko, my eyes locked on hers.Hindi ito sumagot at tumawa lang bilang tugon bago halikan muli ang aking labi, causing my hands to unbutton her sleeves as our lips collided. “Dang it, we shouldn’t be doing this.” Sambit nito nang tanggalin ko na sa kanya ang kanyang saplot pang itaas.“But we’re already doing it… aatras ka pa ba?” Tugon ko rito bago hayaan siyang ta
-(JESCEL THYLANE VELASTRO POV)--Flashback-"What did you say?" Kunot noo akong na patanong rito."You heard me, Jes. Don't make me say it again." Sagot nito as he removed himself on top of me."But, hindi naman yun papatol sa akin. You know him, he doesn't -" Naputol ang aking sasabihin ng sumabat ito."Then do whatever it takes to make him fall for you. If you can't seduce him tonight, make him fall for you. Simple as that." Sagot nito as he stood on the end of the bed.Hindi ako nakasagot rito and just looked at him, his blue orbs staring back at me solemnly."Ano? Gagawin mo ba ang pina-gagawa ko o ipapa-" Naputol ang sasabihin nito nang sumagot ako."I'll do it." Sagot ko na puno ng dedikasyon.He nodded, an upsidedown smile plastered on his face. "I'm counting on you." He answered.-•-"So, ayun pala ang sinabi niya sayo?" Tanong ni Eve, isa sa mga kaibigan at naging sidechick ng ex ko."Oo. I can't say no, ito lang ang chance ko para mapasakin siya." Sagot ko bago sumimsim sa
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)--❃--Two years later-I took her on a date because it's Valentine's day. Para naman kahit papaano ay makapag unwind ito and she deserves a treat.We were on my car driving through town as I held her soft hand, never letting her go.My heart always flutter in excitement whenever I see her get out of the office as I wait, her smile was the most beautiful thing in the world that a man can see."Where are you taking me?" Tanong nito as she looks outside."Somewhere, you'll see." I responded, kissing the top of her hand.Hindi ko pa pina-kilala ito kina Jace dahil wala pa naman kaming label. I don't want to get my hopes up at ayokong umasa na sasagutin niya ako.Okay lang sa akin kung hindi niya ako sasagutin, ayos lang din kung maging kami. But the fact that my ex wife was still lingering in my mind had me bothered…Ilang beses ko ng sinabi sa sarili ko na magmove on at magpatuloy sa agos ng buhay ngunit napakahirap yatang gawin iyon.Damn that girl, she r
