The Sweet Revenge Epilogue
"Daddy, can I play with Kerrin after school?" Zella, my seven-year-old daughter, asked. I put down my paper and glanced at her. She was peeking at the door of my room, pouting, and her hands were clasped. I motioned for her to come closer, which she did, but her mouth pouted more."Did I say that you should call him Kuya Kerrin because he's five years older than you?" I said softly. Zella snaked her arms around my waist and looked up at me."I told you, Daddy. I like Kuya Kerrin," she shyly said. I chuckled lightly, carried her, and made her sit on my lap. I removed my eyeglasses and started combing her hair using my slender fingers. I stared at my daughter's eyes and smiled as I saw that some of her features mirrored her mother's."But your mom won't like it when she hears it; you're too young for that kind of stuff, my princess." Zella bit her lower lip, trying to restrain herself from crying, but she couldn't. Umalpas ang luha sa mata niya at nahihiya siyang nagtago ng mukha sa dib
The Sweet Revenge Prologue
PROLOGUE"His family recently notified us via email that he passed away this morning after being paralyzed for more than two months."A man wearing a black tuxedo smiled slightly as he heard what his secretary had said.He was watching what was happening below the building through the glass wall, as if everything were just a toy he could control with his hand."Call Attorney Vaugh, and tell him that he needs to do the papers so Mr. Xendler's half would be transferred-" His secretary interrupted him, she looked embarrassed as she proceeded.A deathglare can be seen in his black eyes as his brows furrow. Nobody could risk breaking the enveloping tension, "His lawyer claimed he would not transfer his shares from you. His daughter will takeover his position."His secretary shivered in fear as she was unable to respond to the man's indignant inquiry, "How come? He has no child!"When someone had the audacity to open the door, he quickly glanced that way. His mouth dropped open as soon as

Her plansWho knows that this is how it feels to see your enemy almost turning pale while wearing their shocked face. It is kinda satisfying as well as my favorite moment so far."How's the meeting with the board? Hindi ka naman hinarang sa labas ng opisina 'di ba?" I rolled my eyes and began smoothly shaking the glass of my wine while a small yet sarcastic grinned plastered on my lips."Zy, you have no permission to interrupt their meeting yet you did," he added."As far as I know I am now the chairman of the board after Dad passed away. What's wrong with that?" Tinaliman ko ng tingin si Duex na biglang napaayos ng upo sa couch ko at patagong natawa.Huminga ako ng malalim at pinagkrus ang binti habang pinaglalaruan ang yelo sa inumin. Saglit pa akong napataray nang maalala ang reaksyon ni Styx. Looks like he saw a ghost but maybe I am . . . the ghost of his past."Tsk. I'm just concerned about you, babe. Anong sabi ng pinakamamahal mong asawa?" Muntik ko nang madura ang iniinom ko sa

Business ProposalBumuntong hininanga ako matapos ang limampung minutong pagtitig sa puti kong kisame. Hindi ko mabilang kung ilang beses akong nagpakawala ng malalim ng buntong hininga dahil hindi maalis sa isipan ko ang nangyari kagabi sa party.Styx said kept on running and appearing on my mind. The way he uttered 'I miss you' was so realistic that I almost believed it. Sarkastiko akong napangisi at naikuyom ang kamay na nakalagay sa ibabaw ng dibdib. Nakasuot pa rin ako pantulog at gulo-gulo pa rin ang buhok dahil wala akong lakas na bumangon ngayon araw. Ilang beses ko ring narinig ang pagtunog ng telepono hanggang sa inis akong bumangon at sinagot 'yon."Good morning," masayang bati ng nasa kabilang linya pero wala ako sa mood para sumagot."Tsk, tsk. Ano't nakasimangot ka na naman, aga-aga, ah?" Pumunta ako sa loob ng cr at humarap sa salamin, napasimangot ako nang makita ang itsura ko. B'wiset. Para akong walang buhay."Sabagay lagi ka namang nakasimangot," dagdag niya at huma

The Kiss "I suggest, we expand the casino so we'd attract more tourist since our target are foreigners and businessmen. What do you think Mr. Syruis?" Nanlaki ang mata niya at napaayos ng upo matapos marinig ang sinabi ko. Tsk, tsk. Sabi na at hindi siya nakikinig dahil kanina pa siya nakatitig sa 'kin habang pinaglalaruan ang kanyang ballpen. Ngumiti siya ng alanganin bago ilibot ang paningin sa mga taong nakaupo sa mahabang lamesa na ngayon ay inaantay ang sasabihin niya. Lahat sila ay nasa kanya ang atensyon kaya hindi ko maiwasang mapangisi."I agree with uhm, Ms. Xedler. That's nice suggestion." Tumango ako bago nagpatuloy. I need to earn their trust as soon as possible. Lahat sila ay nagdadalawang-isip pa sa kakayahan ko pero hindi ko hahayaang maging gano'n lang ang tingin nila sa 'kin sa paglipas ng panahon.Umupo ako sa swivel chair habang pumipirma ng mga papel na inabot ng secretary ko, hindi pa rin ako kumakain kaya ramdam ko ang pagkalam ng sikmura ko pero hindi ko 'yon p

Reunion"Sasusunod na gawin mo 'yon walang kaibi-kaibigan ah?!" sigaw ko kay Duex habang kinakabit ang hikaw sa tenga ko. Inis akong sumulyap sa kanya na ngayon ay tawa-tawang nakamasid sa 'kin habang nakadantay ang dalawang braso sa sofa.Nakapasok siya sa bahay ko habang tulog ako dahil may sarili siyang susi rito sa bahay. Madalas siyang tumambay dito kaya hinayaan kong may susi siya pero hindi para gisingin ako ng maaga! Late na ako nakatulog kagabi, hindi pa rin mawala sa isip ko kung paano ako titigan ni Styx kagabi. He looked at me like he is really in love with me. Nakakatawa dahil habang masayang-masaya siyang kinukuha ang loob ko ay palihim ko siyang tinatawanan.Nag-uumpisa pa lang ako sa plano but everything was going smoothly according to our plans. Hindi kami nahihirapan dahil si Styx na mismo ang lumalapit sa 'kin at halos lumuhod sa harapan ko para mapatawad siya.In-expect ko nang mangyayari 'to but hindi gano'n kabilis. Kinailangan ko pang tiisin ang mga halik niya p

Zenith'Yong pakiramdam na akala mo okay na pero panandalian lang pala. That's when you realized that things won't stay like that forever. Kung makaramdam ka man ng kasiyahan ay darating din sa puntong babalik din sa lahat, walang panandalian maging ang kasiyahan."You said that she's in Florida." I gritted my teeth while my fist were clenched. Ilang beses na nangilid ang luha ko bago ko siya tapunan ng tingin."Ang sabi mo wala siya rito?" puno ng sumbat na tanong ko. He shifted his weight uncomfortably and looked at my eyes straightly."'Yon din ang alam ko, Zy." I laughed sarcastically while trying to hide the pain that I have felt inside me. Inilibot ko ang paningin sa apat na sulok na opisina ko na tila na mahahanap ko roon ang sagot sa daan-daang tanong na tumatakbo sa isipan ko.Kailan pa siya nakauwi?And why the hell did she come back?I don't know why but recalling what happened in the grocery immediately clenched my heart."Honestly, Zy, don't be mad at me. I have no control
The Sweet Revenge Chapter 6
JealousBuong araw ay ginugol ko ang oras sa pagtapos ng mga papeles para ma-check ang location sa Zambales. It was really an exhausted day because something came up and it created a huge problem in our company. The team was now doing their task to address it but I couldn't think properly because I know some of them will blame me. Kasalanan ko ba na nag-back out ang investors galing France? Anong magagawa ko? We need them to continue our projects, we can sue them for not following the contracts and the legal team are now working on it."Kaya mo bang pumunta mag-isa doon? Hindi ka ba maliligaw?" tanong ni Duex at sumandal pa sa kotse ko habang magka-krus ang braso.It's a BMW and I got it from him, it was his gift."May waze naman." I combed my hair using my fingers out of frustration. Napaka-stressful talaga!He arched a brow, I examine his body. He was only wearing a plain white shirt partnered with khaki shorts. Bumagay sa kanya, well, lahat naman."Okay, just call me when you need

Wedding Day"Hindi ka iiyak! Hindi ka talaga iiyak, sinasabi ko sa 'yo baka matanggal ang makeup mo mamaya," bulong ko sa sarili habang pinapaypayan ang mukha. Styx and I decided to hold the wedding at his private resort in Zambales. Naging mabilis ang lahat ng preparasyon dahil may mga koneksyon siya.I was wearing my wedding gown and my makeup today. Simple lang ang gown na napili namin dahil beach wedding naman ang theme nito. Nauna na sina Styx sa lugar kung saan pagdadausan at mamaya pa ako susunod dahil kakatapos ko pa lang mag-ayos.My makeup artist entered my room after knocking. She smiled at me. Pinilit niya akong pakalmahin dahil paulit-ulit na namamasa ang mata ko sa sobrang kaba. Paano kapag hindi sumipot si Styx?! I swear, I'm going to make him pay if that happens.Matapos ang ilang minuto ay dinala na nila ako sa labas, malapit sa dalampasigan ang venue, at nakahanda na ang lahat nang makarating ako. I was wearing my veil while still standing outside the venue. Ngunit n

Zella"Mommy! Zella is crying!" papungas-pungas akong bumangon at lumapit sa crib. Zenith was the one who looked after his sister. Hapon na pero antok na antok pa rin ako kaya pinabantay ko muna sa kanya para umidlip.Lumapit ako sa crib at hinalikan ang noo ni Zenith bago binuhat si Zella. My daughter was now 1 year and 2 months old, and breastfeeding ko pa rin siya until now dahil sabi ng doctor ay healty raw 'yon."Very good, Kuya Zenith. Thank you for taking care of your baby sister," I said and caressed his hair. Zenith giggled and hugged me by my waist. Sobrang responsable niya tuwing siya ang naiiwan sa kapatid, unlike other children who get jealous when they have siblings.Buhay ko si Zella at tumahan na nang makita ako. I kissed her chubby cheeks, and she just cried again, obviously getting impatient because she's hungry. Binaba ko ang strap ng bra ko at pinadede siya. Zenith playfully covered his face and turned his back."Anak, you don't have to do that. Dito ka rin kaya du

Sweet Goodbyes "Where are you going?" Nanigas ako sa kinatatayuan nang biglang may nagsalita sa likod ko. I was about to get into the car that would take me to the airport.Dahan-dahan kong nilingon siya at nakita ko ang pagdaan ng sakit sa mata niya. They are tears forming at the corner of his eyes at namumula rin ang mukha niya."Iiwan mo na naman ba ako?" Nabasag ang boses niya. Tumulo rin ang mga luha niya at mahinang humikbi. Sumikip ang dibdib ko at lumapit sa kanya para sana punasan ang luha sa pisngi niya ngunit tinaboy niya lang ang kamay ko at bahagyang umatras."You promised me that you would never leave me, pero heto ka, nagplano na naman na umalis nang hindi sinasabi sa akin. Tell me, Xhia. Do you really love me?" Hindi ko alam kung paano magpapaliwanag sa kanya. I need to stay away from them. Hindi ako makatulog knowing na lahat sila nasaktan ko, kailangan ko munang matutunan na patawarin ang sarili bago bumalik at ibuhos ang pagmamahal sa kanila.I stepped closer to him

Styx SyruisI wanted to bury everything and look for her again, but that wasn't exactly what happened. I am ready to forget what happened and start a new life with her because there's no point in lying to myself that I no longer have feelings for her.That day she stepped inside my office, I felt the familiar feeling in my chest, and my heart still beats fast for her. Alam ko na marami nang nagbago sa kanya at 'yon ang napatunayan ko nang magsimula siyang maging malamig sa pagtrato sa akin.I knew that Mr. Xedler, the man who adopted her, died of a heart attack, and I admit it was all because of me. I threatened him to tell Zyxhiaxy everything I knew about his underground business, and he was scared for a reason. Nakita ko kung paano siya matigalgal sa kinatatayuan nang makita ang lahat ng ebidensya na mayroon ako laban sa kanya.That day, he died while his knees were bent, and Duex witnessed it. Wala akong naramdaman na awa maski saglit nang makita siyang mabawian ng buhay sa harapan
The Sweet Revenge Chapter 46
A/N: I know some of you will be disappointed in Styx's reason for hurting Zyxhiaxy, but that's the only reason I could create for Styx to not prolong the story. You see, this story has already celebrated its anniversary, and I badly want to end Zyxhiaxy's agony and let her be happy. You can skip this chapter if it doesn't meet your expectations. Thank you. ***Styx SyruisWarning : ViolenceI wanted to bury everything and look for her again, but that wasn't exactly what happened.

Styx SyruisWarning : Violence I remained looking at the door while hearing my parents exchanging words while yelling. My nanny, which was standing beside me looked at me worriedly but I remained my face blank."Siguro labas muna tayo? Maaga pa naman," she said while stammering. I held my trolley bag tightly as I hear my father's raging voice."Do you think I'm stupid to believe that you don't love that bastard anymore?!" His voice was filled with anger and jealousy. I couldn't believe that this happen everytime I go to school.I let my nanny held my hand and guide me outside the gate. I once look at the house I treated as home and after 10 years of existence, I couldn't feel any comfort in this house anymore.I was waiting for nanny Ayeng to arrive, she said she needs to go to the counter to order our foods. It's my first time eating in a fast food chain and I'm sure mom will get mad when she'd learn about this.I played with my fingers while recalling what happened earlier. Actually
The Sweet Revenge Chapter 44
The Sweet Revenge I sat on the sofa while waiting for someone to arrive. Nagpapawis ang palad ko sa sobrang kaba at hindi rin ako mapakali. I waited for almost 20 minutes, nang may marinig akong kaluskos sa labas. I sighed and smiled a bit, knowing that he was already here.I checked my gun under the study table and sat properly on my couch as if I weren't aware of his presence.Narinig ko ang pagbukas ng pintuan dahilan para mapunta roon ang atensyon ko. I looked at him blankly as he stared at me with a hint of surprise."Hi," I said, almost inaudible because of the building lump in my throat.He stopped and closed the door behind him before walking in my direction. I swallowed the lump in my throat when I noticed that there was nothing in his eyes but rage. Malakas ang kalabog ng dibdib ko, at kahit anong pagpapakalma ko ay hindi ko iyon magawa."How are you, my dear?" I smiled as a lone tear fell from my eye. Kung sa ibang sitwasyon siguro kami ngayon ay magkalukumahog akong lumapi

Another Plan"Noong magising ako matapos ma-comatose, nagulat na lang ako dahil may bata sa tabi ko." Mahina akong natawa nang maalala ang itsura ni Zenith noong baby pa siya. "Kasi ang akala ko umabot lang ng araw o linggo 'yong pagkakatulog ko pero ang sabi ng doctor, anak ko raw ang sanggol." Humigpit ang yakap sa akin ni Styx at tila ba pinapakalma ang sarili matapos marinig ang mga sinabi ko. I felt comfortable talking about my past now, kahit paunti-unti ay kinakaya ko sa tulong ni Styx."What did you do next?" Binaon niya ang mukha sa leeg ko at mas hinigpitan pa ang yakap sa akin. Nasa kwarto lang kami at nakahiga sa kama habang nagkukwentuhan, magkasama na naman si Zenith at ang mga tito niya ngayon kaya may oras kami para gawin ito. "At first I was shocked," tumatawang sagot ko ngunit bakas doon ang sakit. "Hinanap din kita sa kanila but they told me that no one tried to look for me after I vanished just like that." "Tell me more, please." "I tried to reach out to you noo
