I feel so suffocated. I feel like someone was drowning me in the water but I can still breathe. It felt as if I were being choked, but nobody's hands were around my neck, nor was there any tight cloth restricting my breathing. It felt as if I were dying, but I was very much alive. My eyes are dull while looking at the casket of my Mother. She was sleeping peacefully there while me... while I was suffering from the loss. But I couldn't do anything... I was raped, rescued and my Mom died. Why am I so unlucky? This is the second time that my Father laid his hands on me and what is most terrifying is that he tried to sell me. I couldn't look at anyone's eyes because I was so scared of them... I'm scared of people. I was happy back then... I was living my new life with happiness and met River to turn out that he was just using my body... but I work there so he had a point that I was just a Slave. Then this thing happened. It was like a tornado. A storm rolls in, destroys everything
Trigger Warning. I puff the cigarette in the air and sip the beer again. I didn't get to sleep, nor, to eat. I don't want to do anything anymore. I just wanted to die. The wind breeze makes my hair fly as my eyes glanced at the lights coming from the building. I dropped the cigarette and stomped on it, before dropping the empty beer. I walked to the end of the rooftop and climbed up there. I smiled to myself because I can now rest. I held the railings tightly as I looked down and saw how tall it was. My past will still haunt me even if I did survive. This time no one can help me to fight, fight my own fears. My father and his son are still on the run and I'm so scared that they will find me again. My Mom also left me, she was my whole world but she left. The person I love is using my body and blaming it on me because I was just working. And the fact that He was our enemy, months of finding who the real leader is and I was with him that whole time. I'm sure he was planning to
Present. I cut the steak with tiny bits as I use the fork to eat it. I'm having a date with Meggay's brother. Kenneth. A man who owns many bars in metro manila. He had so many tattoos, with blue eyes, a white skin, long eye lashes, A thick eye brows, a pinkish lip. He also had a muscular body and he liked wearing sweaters or sleeveless. "How was your day?" He asked. I looked at him and smiled softly, he gave me a small smile as he sipped his red wine. I saw River. Found out that I still love him. Still haunted by the past. Kenneth was so gentle with me, if I didn't want things he wouldn't force it, he was like Meggay but the difference is he was smiling while Meggay was cold. He gave me a bunch of sunflower every single day with a note 'take care. Enjoy your day.' He would often hug me when he felt that I'm in a distressed mood. He likes shopping with me. He would also ask me if I want anything and he will buy it for me. He likes giving me a kiss on the forehead. He didn't to
I snorted and scratched as I looked at the Roses on my Table. "Yieee! Olivia has a stalker!" Savannah screamed and cried. She was even jumping like a child. I scolded her and took the Roses and threw them in the trash. Savannah stopped midway when she saw the flowers in the trash. "Why did you throw it?" She asked confusingly. I knew that it was her favorite flower but for me it was a trash. "Whoever gave it must be an idiot! Is he bringing the worry back to me!?" I said annoyed and took alcohol to put in my hand. "Care about which?""My Dad likes giving me a rose..." I stopped when I realized what I meant. I cover my mouth while looking at the flowers. My eyes widened in shock. "Is he back again?!" She shouted. My stomach twists and my head suddenly aches. "No... no..." I said while backing away. My body trembles and my stomach twists more. I dash to the bathroom and puke everything I eat this morning. The memories slowly occupy my mind and I hug myself while trying to calm
Trigger warning, eh.The room fell silent when Kenneth entered my office. River's eyebrows shot up in surprise, causing me to cough."Oh, I'm sorry. It looks like you two were talking," Kenneth said, scratching his head."We are done talking anyways," I smiled, but my smile faded when River spoke."We are not done talking.""Excuse me?" I asked, and we glared at each other before Kenneth intervened."I'm just here to give you this flower!" he said, and my eyes landed on him. He showed me my favorite flower and smiled at me.I took the flower and smiled sweetly. This guy, really."You throw my roses in the trash can, but you accept his flowers?" River scoffed, making me chuckle a bit.Kenneth raised an eyebrow and smirked. "You gave her roses?! Are you nuts? She doesn’t like those flowers!"Kenneth looked at me as if examining me. "Are you okay? I'm sure you’re about to cry again. Want a hug?" he murmured, making me smile and nod.He approached and hugged me before I heard his soft lau
"Good morning, Architect De Honor!" greeted the fourth-year intern."Good morning, handsome!"I smiled sweetly and waved at him as I headed to my office here at Cite. My day was off to a great start, and I hoped nothing would ruin it.It's rare for my day to be this good, so don’t let those pesky animals ruin it.I was still smiling as I checked the blueprints. With my short hair, I just tucked it behind my ear.I could feel everything that was weighing me down is finally lifted up because of Meggay's gift. She really wants to protect me from everything and she wants me to heal from all the things that haunts me down up until this time. It's been so many years, the feelings that bottles me up is finally done. It's already done.Speaking of, here comes Satan."Nice day, huh?" I asked with a smile, twirling the pen in my fingers."So, don’t ruin it," I added."I'm too handsome to ruin your day.""You're so handsome that just seeing you ruins my life," I shot back."So, you admit that I'
Slightly smut.I squeezed my eyes shut as I tapped my legs repeatedly. I fidgeted with my fingers and bit the inside of my cheeks. I was so nervous.River was in front of me, looking at me softly."I don’t really know how to talk about this... I’m so scared," I murmured while looking down. I heard the shuffle noise as I felt the warmth that came into contact with me."Hush, I'm here... I'll always be here for you. So, don’t be scared," he whispered to me.Tears started to build in my eyes as I heard those words. It gave me a warm feeling that I hadn't felt in seven years. The feelings I had built up inside me were showing like a weakness, but as the first tear dripped down, thousands more started to flow. It was like a waterfall.I sobbed loudly, like a child who had her candy taken away. The feelings bubbling inside me were uncontrollable."H-he used drugs, he injected me and fucked me multiple times. Front and back," I said slowly, sniffing against his chest.No matter what my frien
"You want me to wear what?" he shouted in disbelief. I snickered and covered my mouth to stop myself from laughing.My breasts were showing, but his face was pale."Come on! I just want you to wear that!" I said while looking at him."No! I'm a grown man! When it comes to a maid costume, it’s you who needs to wear it, not me! I'm not a woman!" he shouted in disbelief, so I laughed again, this time loudly."You're such a pussy!""I don't have a pussy!""Fine! I will also wear a maid costume!" I said while trying to make him wear it.He crossed his arms and looked me in the eyes, but I just rolled my eyes and stood up before giving him a peck on his soft lips."I know you have a maid costume here because of how you like role-playing," I said, looking around.I went to one of his rooms and looked for a maid costume. It all made sense because he liked sex and role-playing.When I found it, I threw one to River. I put the white headband on and a little bit of red lipstick. I put on fishnet
She tilted her head in confusion which makes her look cute. She's so cute!I was the only one who's clapping my hands, it's embarrassing but I would do it for her every time.I really do love her.Lahat ay napatingin sa akin, at pati siya ay tumingin sa akin nang may kahihiyan. She did look at me like that, but for me to be seen like that is already a big thing."Okay, dear student. Please take your seat and stop clapping like that," wika ng host kaya tumaas ang kilay ko at napanguso bago umupo."Bago ka lang ba dito, tol? Terror 'yang teacher na 'yan," wika ng katabi kong student. "Ayaw niyan ng may pumapalakpak, para saan pa ang event kung gano'n? Pati sa klase nambabagsak, dahil 'yung student may ginawa lang na ayaw niya."I tilted my head. "What is his name?""Sir Mike Santiago," sagot niya kaya tumango tango ako. Bumalik na ulit ang tingin niya sa stage kaya ako kinuha ko ang telepono ko at pinindot ang pangalan niya at sinend kay Penguin.For sure papahirapan nito ang Baby ko.N
An expensive pen keeps tapping to the wooden table that he has, he was getting bored. His silver gray eyes are looking boredly at the huge monitor in front of him, he can't find her.He can't find the one he loves.Lots of cameras footage around the three huge monitors, he keeps looking around, every single footage of the monitor but still he can't find her."Where the hell did she go?" he said. He quickly undoes his necktie, it was making him uncomfortable at the moment. He let go of the ball pen and stood up from the chair and went nearly to the monitor. "Should I add another satellite?" he suggested to his self. "It should be around three-o'clock in the afternoon, she should already be left from her school."And it's already five-o'clock in the afternoon. He clenched his fist and so his jaw, he quickly shut his eyes, getting worried about what happened to her. As he open his eyes, he continuesly look at the monitor before getting his glass.Iinom na dapat siya ngunit napatigil na
"Viviana, are you ready? The stage is all yours," one of the staff said. Her smile grew wider, she loves the fact that the stage is only for her. Everyone will watch and love her, continuesly. Her light hazel eyes followed the staff, she's smirking. She quickly put the red mask on her eyes. She was wearing a robe.As she walked to the stage, she could only smirk throughout it. The familiarity of joy and excitement is seeping through her veins. She's ready every night to be the one and only woman they would love and pay for. As the spotlight came forward to her and everyone's eyes were fixated on her. She starts undressing the robe and everyone gasps off the perfect body she has, everyone looks at her with amusement that she keeps seeing every night.She's wearing red lingerie, perfect for her name. Perfect for her code name.Everyone in the crowds is wearing their own mask to hide their identity. Not only are famous people here but also those people who have power and wealth.She's
It's been ten years since all the ruckus happened to all of us. I found it cute seeing my daughter happily dancing in my office.My bipolar disorder is finally under control after years of therapy. I've finally become happy again.Her name is Harmony Ivory Scott.I put Ivory in her second name and put Harmony in her first name. She likes singing and dancing. Meggay visited me yesterday, and Kuro is with her.Kuro is like her mother before, even though Harmony was scared of him, but after some moments, they finally became friends because Meggay's personality towards me became Kuro too.I happily smiled at how I saw Harmony's happy face; it was enough for me. I hated the fact that I shot Meggay without knowing it before.But finally, we're back to how we were before because Meggay is still the same even though we broke her before.The last two pieces of my puzzle are Meggay and Harmony, who completed the whole me."Come here, love," I said and motioned Harmony to me. She happily walked
His eyes were now dry, and he was looking at me with those sincere eyes that made me fall in love with him before.The rain stopped pouring as if it was done screaming. I wiped the tears from my eyes."What happened back then, Caelum?" I asked as I rubbed my eyes."My Mom had an accident that day, so I hurried there, but I didn't mean to leave you clueless. When I saw the missed calls I had, I called you at that time, but there was no response. I was so scared because you weren't answering any calls," he said, giving me a lopsided smile as he ruffled my hair."What about the penthouse?""Ah, that time. I was looking for a new condo to move into, so I brought all my belongings there, and only the one I was selling was left. It was supposed to be a surprise for you because I wanted to live with you," he said sweetly, taking off his coat to put it on my shoulder."What about the marriage?" I asked again, rubbing the back of my head."Ah, it was planned, but I canceled it and told them th
"Soon, my ass!" I snapped at him and rolled my eyes.He chuckled and smirked afterward, making me want to punch him in the face."I don't want it," I whispered to him, making him stop.I looked outside at the glass wall, seeing the darkness swallowing the light. Outside seemed so peaceful with the small number of people out there.I wanted to inhale the wind again to find peace once more. I looked at him and called the waiter to get the bill, and I paid for it."I hope you enjoyed our dinner," I said as I grabbed my bag to leave the restaurant."Phoebe, wait!" he said, so I looked at him.Luckily, there were few people on the street. He looked at me with a lost face, inhaling a large amount of oxygen as he looked at me.The rain suddenly poured down, making me look at him with a serious face and a small smile."Why are you pretending to be happy? Why are you treating me nicely?" he snapped as he grabbed my arms.I sighed and tried to let go of my hand, but he insisted and held on so t
"She's my sister, Phoebe, not my lover," Caelum said with a pleading tone. But I didn't bother to look at him again, just leaving him there dumbfounded.I went back to the office once more, trying to shake off everything he said to me. Why was he explaining this to me? I don't even care.I bit my lower lip as I thought, "Is he playing with me again?"I rolled my eyes and submitted the rest of the reports to Meggay. Opening my phone with too many thoughts, I saw a new piece of news. I clicked the link, and the video started playing."We're back with another update on this case. We suspect the family may have had another Daughter, as evidenced by clothes and a picture frame with another child. They are four in total, indicating another child or perhaps one who is old enough to work. We found no fingerprints of other people, and the picture frame with the other child's face is damaged. We suspect this person may be responsible for the entire family's deaths—"My jaw dropped at the news.
I woke up in the familiar room; I suppose I am in my condo right now. But why am I here? I raised my eyebrows when I saw the sun rising once again.I looked around and saw my friends scattered in my condo. Olivia was sleeping on the couch, Savannah was sleeping on the floor with just one pillow, and Meggay was beside me.They were sleeping peacefully, as if they were just sleeping now. Why are they sleeping here?I rubbed my eyes and looked around. My head was full of questions regarding what happened tonight. I went to the kitchen to drink some milk and started making breakfast for them.I cooked bacon because Savannah loves it, fried rice with egg because Olivia loves it, and I also made tuna mayonnaise with egg and put it in a sandwich because Meggay loves it.I made coffee too because they love it."Oh, you're already awake," I heard Meggay's voice as I heard the sound of a chair at the counter. I smiled at her and placed the sandwich in front of her."Good morning, Meggay," I gre
Trigger warning. (This chapter might trigger you, so stop if you need to.)I covered my mouth as panic took over my whole body. Meggay stopped me from killing that woman, waking me up from the darkness she had shown me.I squeezed my eyes shut and opened them again. I breathed deeply to calm myself."Meggay, I already took care of the DNA that led to her bones," TJ said, showing her a plastic container."How long until you find out who the person is?" Meggay asked coldly. TJ paused, thinking about how long it would take."Maybe tonight I can do it. I'm sure you'll still be at headquarters later," TJ said, and Meggay nodded in response.Meggay leaned closer to me and held my hand, smiling."You did your best out there," she said, giving me a soft smile. I kept looking at her."Your foster Mother is in the interrogation room. I asked Savannah and Olivia to bring Diana and your father along with her," Meggay said, but I couldn’t even respond. I looked at her and held her hand as tightly
