Solange Raviea Cervana.
“I’m sorry, ngayon lang ako nakabalik.” He walk towards me and drop the paper bag he’s holding under my bed.
“Can you help me go outside?” I asked him. Nabigla pa siya no’ng una. “I wanted to go outside to breathe some fresh air. I’m bored here,”
“Yeah, sure. I’ll get the wheelchair for a while,” aniya. I nodded. He left the room and came back with a wheelchair. He also called a nurse to help me set up my dextrose stand.
“Where do you want to go?” Westley asked me. I don’t actually know where I should go. Mabuti na lang ay nagsalita si Nurse Eleano
Solange Raviea Cervana.When the sun set, Westley and I went back to my room again. Umakyat na rin kasi si Nurse Eleanor dahil kailangan ko pang uminom ng gamot. When evening came, the nursemaid on duty went to my room to give me my knitting materials. Westley went outside for a minute to answer his call. Bumalik na lang siya noong nagsimula na akong mag gantsilyo.“Danilo called,” bungad niya.“Who’s Danilo?” Tinigil ko ang ginagawa at bumaling sa kanya.“My secret agent who works for Gregory Alejo.” He put his phone inside his pocket before he continued. “He knows where Vernon is.”
Solange Raviea Cervana.Agad akong nagpunas ng luha ko para maproseso ang sinabi niya. It looks like it’s a live video as he was acting to wait for my reaction. Nang lumipas ang ilang segundo ay roon lang siya nag salita ulit at nagpakawala ng panibagong halakhak.“You’re not dumb, right? Naintindihan mo naman siguro ang sinabi ko,” sambit niya. “Yes, Solange. You’re now an Alejo. You and Vernon are married.”I married him? No, what is he saying? It’s just an engagement. I didn’t do anything that could make him say that I married Vernon.“Don’t worry, I already sent these documents to your father. I sent you this
Solange Raviea Cervana.“Masusunod po, Señora. Makaaasa po kayo na ligtas kayong makakabalik dito.” Sabay-sabay silang umalis sa harapan ko. Nurse Elisa helped me sit down on the wheel chair. Hindi na ako nag atubiling magpalit ng damit. I just wear Vernon’s big sweatshirt kahit hindi ko alam kung bakit nasa damitan ko iyon.Agent Evans gave me a baseball cap and a mask to hide my face. Sa likod ng ospital kami lumabas nang sa gayon ay walang makakita na lumabas ako.“Nurse Eli, you may go home for the meantime. My parents and Abuela would be mad if you told them that I left. I’ll guarantee your safety. Don’t worry.” I smiled at her kahit halos nakatakip na ang buong mukha ko.
Solange Raviea Cervana.Agad akong bumaba ng bangka, hindi na inalintana kung mababasa ang damit ko. Paulit-ulit kong pinunasan ang luha sa pisngi ko kahit hindi ko alam kung titigil pa ba iyon. My throat was already aching because of shouting.Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon ko sa mga nangyayari. I was too scared to move and too emotional to speak. Hirap na hirap akong lapitan siya dahil hindi rin ako makalakad, buti na lang ay mababaw ang tubig kaya kahit na papaano ay nakayanan ko pa rin na gumapang sa buhangin para maabot ang dalawang gilid ng braso niya nang sa gayon ay mapaharap siya sa akin.“Vernon, don’t do this please? Please talk, don’t…don’t just leave me without saying anything.&rdq
Solange Raviea Cervana.I was patiently waiting for the elevator to stop, and when it happened, agad na bumungad ang pribadong palapag kung saan ang kwarto ni Vernon. Nang iliko ng nurse ang wheelchair ko ay nakita ko ang ilang bodyguards sa labas ng kwarto. I was confused because they weren’t familiar and I hadn’t seen them with Vernon before.Bubuksan na sana ng kasama kong nurse ang pintuan nang bigla iyong bumukas. Tumambad ang nurse na galing sa loob, pero nang sumulyap ako sa loob ay nakita ko si Vernon. He was sitting down and laughing. When the door opened wide, doon ko lang nakita si Wendy. Hindi pa nila ako napansin noong una pero nang magsalita ang nurse ay napabaling na sila sa akin.“Good morning, Nurse Eleanor,
Vernon Thobias Alejo.I stood up from my bed when I saw her fall down. I was so ready to lift her up, but her grandmother raised her hand to stop me. I knew from then how bad I hurt her. Pero alam ko rin sa oras na hawakan ko siya at bawiin lahat ng sinabi ko, hindi na siya makaka-alis pa. She needs quick medication. Her Abuela told me that if she didn’t continue her therapy as soon as possible, she would no longer be able to walk like before.And I don’t want that. I don’t want her to stay with me. I don’t want her to suffer with me. My life’s already a mess. Ayokong pati iyong sa kanya ay sirain ko pa. I was trying so hard not to give her what I actually felt because I knew that if I show her what my true feelings were, she’d be stuck here without any progress. And she should
Solange Raviea Cervana.The plane landed in Manila an hour ago. I wasn’t able to eat before I left Australia kaya dumaan muna ako sa pinakamalapit na restaurant.It somehow feels new when I get to breathe the air again here after a few years. It feels so surreal at pakiramdam ko ay sobrang bilis ng oras dahil parang kailan lang nang mangyari ang lahat ng mga bagay na matagal ko nang gustong kalimutan. After a year of staying abroad, I was able to walk again. I will forever be thankful to Abuela as she didn’t leave me behind. She stayed with me for so long until I could finally step normally again like before. My remaining years in Australia were a bit harder than the first year. Akala ko kasi kapag nakalakad na ako ay magiging maayos na lahat. Turns out it wasn’t the end of it.
Solange Raviea Cervana.“Lugi ako, biglang inuwian. Tara na nga!” Sean was about to walk away with his friends, but he was able to greet me before doing so. “It’s nice to see you here happy and well, Solange.” Binati rin ako ng doktor niyang kaibigan bago sila umalis at iniwan kami roon dalawa.“It’s nice here. City lights are everywhere, kahit na gabi na maliwanag pa rin sa paligid,” I said, opening a topic because he isn’t talking. “Hoy…” Hinawakan ko ang braso niya at bahagya iyong inalog dahil wala pa rin siyang sinasabi. “Aren’t you going to say some—”He immediately held my waist before I even finished my sentence to put his lips on mine. Ba
Solange Raviea Cervana.“When will you ever leave?” Biglang sumulpot sa harapan ko si Avril. Hindi ko alam na pumunta pala siya rito. “You’re enjoying your spotlight now, huh? Don’t worry, it’s all just temporary. You will leave the company as soon as possible.”Nang matapos ako sa paglagay ng lipstick ko ay agad ko siyang nilagpasan at dumiretso sa labas ng venue para makalanghap ng sariwang hangin. Hindi pa ako tuluyan nakakababa sa batong hagdan nang hinapit niya ako para mapatingin sa kanya.“Why do you have to come back here! It’s so much better if you’re not here! Kapag nandito ka, inaagaw mo ang lahat ng sa akin! The people, the spotlight, everything! As well as my boyfr
Solange Raviea Cervana. Kaliwa’t kanan ang nag e-email na brands sa akin, pati na rin ang pag offer sa mga T.V advertisements simula nang mabalita na bumalik na ako. Ms. Kiara advised me to just let it flood. Hindi pa ako pupwedeng tumanggap ng kahit na ano sa mga iyon dahil wala pa iyong magiging mentor ko. I just did a photoshoot today for articles. It’s like a comeback photoshoot. Sinasamantala ng production ang init na pagtanggap sa akin muli ng mga tao dahil mas nakakataas iyon ng ranking ng company. “Fiercer!” Ms. Kiara de Lopez uttered with her hands crossed. The models are intimidated by her kaya tahimik ang buong studio at tanging pag-shutter lang ng camera ang naririnig. I stay calm and just do what she says. Akala ata nila, galit s
Solange Raviea Cervana.We honestly don’t care about how the media will describe us as a couple. Wala na kaming pakialam kung may nanoood ba sa amin o wala. We have already decided to just leave it as it is, dahil hindi naman sila kasali sa relasyon naming dalawa. It will only make the most out of it worse kapag magpapa-apekto pa kami sa sinasabi ng iba.“My parents don't know we’re coming.” I said to him when we entered the gate. Nagpatuloy siya sa pagmamaneho hanggang sa loob at hininto iyon sa tapat ng main entrance ng mansion.“It won’t be long. If they’re busy, maybe we can go next time,” aniya nang mabuksan ang pintuan para makababa ako.
Solange Raviea Cervana.“I need to know what’s between Westley and Avril,” ani ko.The agents accompanied me to CMC since I’m going to sign a contract today. Papa helped me, so that I could easily join the company again. I just let him do it since I’m not planning on staying here for good. Well, nothing’s new with the bodyguards I’m with since they’re always with me.“Iyong kaibigan niyo po ba, Ma’am?” Vino asked.I told them to just call me Seia over and over again, but they won’t listen to me. I said that being called Senyora is too old to hear, that’s why they decided to just call me Ma
Solange Raviea Cervana.I woke up early and went to the mansion. It’s been a while since I saw my parents. They never visited me in Australia as they knew about my relationship with Vernon. Nito lang umaga ay tinawagan ako ni Mama na ikinagulat ko. She was inviting me over for breakfast, that’s why I didn’t hesitate to go there with the bodyguards with me.The maid opened the doorway. It’s been a while since I last stepped here. It still feels the same. Very empty and frightening. Tahimik ang buong bahay na a-akalain mong walang nakatira roon. I quickly erased my negative thoughts when I successfully entered the dining area. My parents quickly glanced at me with no emotion at all. Tumayo si Mama para bumeso sa akin, tsaka ako sinenyasan na gawin ko rin iyon kay Papa. I was hesitant a
Solange Raviea Cervana.“Yes, of course, I know Avril since she joined HDL before!” I heard Sean uttered.“That’s so embarrassing, Sean! I wasn’t able to go to HDL Paris, but I’m glad I became known because of your agency. Thank you for that…” Avril sweetly replied.A was taken aback and couldn’t utter a word. I never saw her again after we fought that day in the comfort room. She never once visited me when I woke up from comatose. Seeing her now, getting more mature and successful, means so much to me because she finally got the recognition she wanted since day one. She must’ve been very happy as people are now looking up to her.
Solange Raviea Cervana. “Seia, is this your first time?” he asked while heavily breathing. “Yes,” I admitted. “I’m sorry,” “Baby, why are you sorry? There’s nothing to feel sorry for.” Inangat niya ang baba ko habang nakahiga pa rin ako sa harapan niya. “I don’t want to stop…” sambit ko, habang nakalapat pa rin ang isang kamay sa harap niya. It wasn't enough. I want to pleasure him more. Gusto kong iparamdam sa kanya ang lahat ng bagay na hindi niya pa nararamdaman noon. I don’t want him to forget what happened this night. “The visitors are waiting, Seia.” I shook m
Solange Raviea Cervana.I help him remove his necktie and button shirt while kissing him with so much passion. Bahagya akong napatingin sa katawan niya kaya mas hinabol niya ang labi ko. I didn’t bother looking at his tattoo on his chest again when he made me stand up so that he could remove his pants. Napasandal ako lalo sa manibela habang nakakapit ang dalawang kamay sa balikat niya. I thought he’s sitting down again, but he continued kissing me from my cheeks down to my neck. Pinulupot ko ang isang kamay ko sa batok niya. I craned my neck to give him more access to it, but I knew from then I can’t wait any longer to finally feel him.I push him back onto the chair while his boxers are still there. He chuckled and inclined his seat. I turn around and grab my hair and put it on the side.
