"Lagi ka talagang aabusuhin dahil sobrang bait mo," sabi ni mama sa akin habang kumakain kami ng hapunan. "Hindi pwedeng ikaw nalang lahat, Jill. Magtira ka naman para sa sarili mo."

Nadiin ko ang pagtusok ng kutsara sa karne ng isda dahil sa irita ko. Nakatalikod si mama sa akin dahil nasa upuan ako, habang siya at ang dalawang kapatid ko naman ay nasa lamesa.

"Oo, mama. Oo," sagot ko nang matigil siya.

Mukhang nahalata niyang ayaw kong pinapangaralan ako ngayon dahil sa pagod kaya natahimik din siya. Hindi sa padabog ako kumain ulit, pero nagpatuloy ako nang nakasimangot. Ramdam ko pa ang tingin ng kapatid kong babae sa akin, pero hindi ko na siya tiningnan pa.

Umalis ako sa boarding house dahil gusto kong matahimik ang buhay ko. Tapos paparangalan pa ako rito? Ano, dahil lang sa tumigil ako sa pagtatrabaho at wala na akong naibibigay na pera, gaganituhin na nila ako?

Huminga ako nang malalim matapos kong isubo ang panghuling kanin at tumayo rin para ilagay ang nagamit na kubye

    Just like I've said, Viramos is a small town. There was clearly no doubt that what transpired last night outside our boarding house scattered around our batch. "Talagang sinugod si Melanie kagabi?""Naglasing ba naman sa boarding House no'ng Oscar."Nag-igting ang panga ko nang marining ang dalawang classmates ko na nag-uusap sa aking likod. I pretended to be listening to the discussion of our instructor, but the topic behind me is ringing in my ears, distorting my focus on the class. "Absent pa nga siya ngayon, oh? Siguro nahiya.""As in nakita mo talaga kagabi?""Oo naman! Magkatabi lang kaya kami ng boarding house nila Melanie. Nagce-cellphone kasi ako no'n sa terasa, tapos nakarinig ako ng ingay. Sina Melanie na pala-""Excuse me. Pwede bang pakihina ng mga boses niyo? Medyo hindi ko kasi marinig si miss dahil sa inyo."I immediately gazed at Irise who seemingly is now irritated. Hindi na ako nag-aksaya pang tingnan ang dalawang kaklaseng sinaway niya at hinintay na lang ang pin

  • The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman   No

    Maybe it was the fact that I was bothered what happened last night that I was spacing out when I went to the office the next day of work. “Secretary Castro? Are you okay?” an employee asked me when she approached me. “The paperworks you are holding are being blown away from your table.”“Huh?” I said and turned my head to the direction of my cubicle. My eyes widened when I saw that my papers are being blown away from my table that is caused by the huge air conditioner’s fan. It made me curse and ran towards it. “Shit!”The employee also lurched forward to help me get them. She kept raining me with questions if I am okay, or why I have not noticed my paperwork. I just kept nodding because I just want everything to be organized, and yet I a messing it all up. “What about your coffee, ma’am?” the female employee asked me again innocently.“Fuck…” I murmured and dropped all of the paperwork on my table. “Why is my day doing this to me?”Without wasting time, I approached the coffee mach

    "Wow, congratulations, Jill! Highest ka sa reporting, ah?" komento ng isang kaklase ko nang magsabay kami sa paglalakad sa kalsada. "Ang galing mo rin kasing mag-English. Nakakadugo sa ilong, alam mo iyon?"Tinawanan ko lang siya. "Hindi ko talaga alam kung bakit sa English ko pa kung pwede naman sa delivery of speech, ate," aniko. "Pero thank you po!"Hoooo, nakakapagod kahit isang klase lang ngayong hapon.

  • The Marriage Contract with the Vice Chairman   Damn

    Pinanood ko ang papalayong syudad ng Cebu sa paningin ko mula sa barkong sinasakyan namin ngayon. Nakahawak ako sa barandilya, ang hanging napakalakas ay nililipad ang mga tikwas ng buhok ko, habang dinadama ang nakakamit ko nang kalayaan.Ito na nga ang pinakahinihintay ko --- ang magawa ang lahat ng gusto ko at magbagong buhat na malayo sa Cebu."Ate," tawag ni mama sa akin mula sa likod. "Matulog ka na muna at malayo pa tayo sa Dipolog."Tiningnan ko siya at nakitang nakahiga siya sa kama kasama ang kapatid kong lalaki na si Ramil na naglalaro ng Mobile Legends sa cellphone nito. Doon ko natantong ako lang pala ang nakatayo at nanonood sa tanawin at dagat mula sa barko."Mamaya na, ma. Magpapahangin na lang muna ako," sabi ko, at bago pa siya makaapila ay lumingon na ulit ako sa tanawin para ipalabas ang ngiting tagumpay.Pareho akong masaya at malungkot na umalis. Masaya dahil hindi na ako titira sa Cebu kung saan lagi akong alipusta sa pamilyang iniwanan ako nina mama mula pa noo

    Diego Lloyd Catamora: Anong gawain natin ngayon, ma'am?Jillana Kaye Bardoquin: Nagbibilang ng mga alikabok sa bintana.Madali siyang nakapag-react ng 'haha' sa mensahe ko. Napailing naman ako dahil sa kakulitan niya. Iniisip ko pa lang na binigay niya ang account ko sa iba para may mag-chat sa akin at nang makahingi ng account ni Irise, nakakainit na ng ulo. Pero dahil wala naman ay ayos lang. Diego Lloyd Catamora: Pasali ako sa pagbibilang, okay lang, ma'am?Jillana Kaye Bardoquin: Okay lang. Punta ka rito sa Kasiya. Diego Lloyd Catamora: Ayyy, umuwi kayo diyan?Jillana Kaye Bardoquin: Kada Sabado at Linggo, umuuwi kami rito. Hahanapin kasi ako ni Mama.Diego Lloyd Catamora: Tama nga naman. Dapat umuwi kayo, at nang mapansin mo ang mga alikabok mo diyan, hahaha! Ilang segundo pa ay nag-send siya ng photo. Napatigil ako sa pagtitipa sa laptop at nang makita ang kabuoan nito.

    I don’t even know how to react. What I know is that the hair in my skin rose as I stared directly at the vice chairman. ‘Cause how could he tell me that he likes me now? That he liked the kiss we had last night? It is… too surreal and unbelievable.“You’re kidding…” I said and started to step backward. “You can’t like me, Mr. Montenegro. I am your secretary, and have you forgotten that we are only pretending as couple?”He shook his head. “Will you be mad if I say that I can’t pretend that you are not affecting me when in fact even standing in front of you makes my knees weak?” he said emphatically yet slow in tone. “Because this is how I really feel, Jill. Even before, within three years. I only held back because of my pride. Because you are too… simplified by a complex man like me.”I fell silent and merely chose to listen to him. He inhaled sharply and the flickers of his eyes were glimmered due to the lamppost above us. The wind whistled again, and I could sleep now due to its soo

    Humikab ako matapos kong isarado ang laptop. Dalawang oras pa naman ako nagtipa nang walang tigil, tapos pagod pa ako sa practice namin kanina. Talagang malalim ang tulog ko nito panigurado. Tiningnan ko sina Irise at Melanie na natutulog na. Magkatabi kami ni Irise sa malaking kama, habang may isang single bed naman na kaharap lamang sa pinto kung saan natutulog si Melanie. Ako na lang ang gising sa aming tatlo. When I laid down beside Irise, I checked the time from my phone. Alas-onse na pala. Dahil aktibo pa ang utak ko dahil sa kapeng nainom kanina, nag-Facebook na lang ako para antukin. Diego Lloyd Catamora: Magandang gabi diyan, dzai! Heto na naman ang bwisit. Mukhang gising pa kahit late na! I really wish that I did not confirm him as a Facebook friend, but then Kezi said that he's her cousin. Nakikipagkaibigan 'yung tao, tapos aayawan ko? Baka sabihan pa akong choosy, tss. Diego Lloyd Catamora: Masyado ka ba talagang busy para hindi ako reply-in? Napangiwi ako. Kasi hin

    I grew up as an obedient girl until I became a teenager who is known to be cool and silent to many. I have struggles when I communicate with other people since I am not immune to any forms of socializing. Maybe because I never really understood the concepts of camaraderies and friendships. For me, I am content to be alone, even if there is a saying that no man is an island. "Are you okay?" one boy asked when he saw me watching the kids at my school playing in the playground. He was wearing our school uniform that looked cute in him. "You look lonely. Don't you want to play with the kids?"I furrowed my eyebrows and scanned his body up and down while sitting on the bench. "Do I know you?" I asked boredly, having no idea why he was approaching me. "How come that you don't know me? I'm your classmate," he said and chuckled. "You know what, maybe our classmates are saying the truth. You are very distant and mean.""I don't know why you have to nose your business with me.""I just want t

    "Shit! Fucking shit! How do I fucking do this shit?""Anong ginagawa mo?" rinig kong tanong ni Irise sa aking likod."Wait lang, Irise. Baka hindi ko mapantaya-- FUCK!"Kung may mas mailalakas pa sa pagmumura ko, iyon na ang malakas na halakhak ni Irise. Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin mula sa salamin, pero hindi siya natigil sa paghahampas sa akin habang natatawa. "Tigilan mo nga ako, Irise!" naiinis na sambit ko at nagpatuloy sa ginagawa, ngayon ay sinusubukan ulit makapokus. Humalukipkip naman siya. "Bakit ka ba kasi nag-e-eyeliner? Sampung minuto ka nang nasa labas ng kwarto natin. Akala ko kung ano nang ginagawa mo, pero nakaharap ka lang pala sa salamin!"Kung maputi lang ako, baka sa pag-init ng aking mga pisngi ay namula na ako sa pagkapahiya. Gusto kong maapektuhan sa tanong ni Irise, pero binalewala ko lang ang katotohanan sa magiging sagot ko. "Wala lang. Sayang kasi ang eyeliner na nabili ko sa SM noon, so... ano... nagta-try lang," rason ko.She snorted. "Hmmm... talaga lan

    I don’t know if I am just being paranoid that I keep noticing the vice chairman slowly having a fondness in hanging out with me. He would just casually arrive in front of my apartment, because he would like to watch movies and cook meals in the kitchen. And even if I am working late at night in front of my laptop, I could see him falling asleep on my sofa while hugging my squared pillow.“Want some coffee?”I looked up and saw Darwin who is placing a hot mug that contained black coffee just beside my laptop. I hung my jaw and looked around in the lobby, discerning if some employees are watching us, and thankfully, they are busy.“Mr. Montenegro,” I called him with almost shutting my eyes in fluster when I turned to him. “You have to understand that you are not supposed to do this.”He frowned and sighed boredly. “Let me guess; because you are my secretary and it is not my job to serve you on the other hand,” he said and crossed his arms. “But this does not concern anyone, Jill.
