But, marrying someone isn't easy. Lalo na kung best friend mo pa ang kailangan 'mong pakasalan, at agawan ng masayang relasyon sa iba.
view moreChapter 25Upon reading the caller's name, parang biglang nabalot ng awkward atmosphere ang paligid naming dalawa. I know that Markus knew that I saw the caller ID, and he's now hesitating to take the call. I don't want to act bitter, first of all because I don't have the right to be bitter. I looked out for awhile, waiting for the ringing end. And when it ended, I sighed."You should've answered it and acted like I am not around," I said.Markus continued driving. "Maybe it's not important---"His phone suddenly rang once more that stopped him from talking. Di katulad nang nauna, hindi na ako nag-abalang balikan ng tingin ang monitor para lang alamin kung sino iyon, dahil malakas ang kutob ko na si Kate pa din iyon."You can answer it. Baka importante," I commented, pushing him to do what he should do. Bakit ba niya bibigyan ng importansya ang magiging reaksyon ko kung sagutin man nya ang tawag hindi ba? Kailan pa ba sya nagkaroon ng pakialam sakin simula nang ikasal kami?I felt hi
Chapter 24"She's... without a doubt pregnant, Mr. Perez." Dr. Legazpi told Markus after checking the test results she instructed me to do. "Cravings and changes to her likes are usual," she added. Napapikit ako ng mariin dahil duon. This was supposed to be my secret! Bakit ba kasi nagkita pa kami ni Markus kanina, at bakit ba kasi matalino sya?! Gosh!"I'll recommend some vitamins and healthy foods that could help your wife and the baby. Nagsisimula pa lang naman kaya hindi pa gaanong mahihirapan ang misis mo, pero kailangan pa din ng pag-iingat, lalo't unang beses pa lamang ni Mrs. Perez ito," Dr. Legazpi added. "I understand, Doc. Thank you," Markus replied."Maiwan ko muna kayo. Babalik ako dala ang mga recommendations ko," paalam ni Dra. bago agad na umalis.When she left, awkward silence surrounded me and Markus. Napapakagat labi na lamang ako habang panay iwas ng tingin sa lalaki. The fact that he knew my situation now, at alam 'kong alam niya na anak namin ang dinadala ko, I
Chapter 23"Are you pregnant?" Markus continued asking while we were both walking on the way to my car. Kanina pa ako pana'y pikit ng mariin."I already told you I'm not pregnant! This is for my driver's wife, ako na ang bumili dahil bababa din naman ako. Buntis ang asawa ng driver ko kaya pwede ba Markus, tantanan mo ako!" sabat ko habang mas binibilisan ang paghakbang. Ilang lakad na lang ay nasa kotse na ako nang sakto namang bumaba ang driver upang pagbuksan ako ng pinto. Sesenyasan ko pa sana itong wag nang bumaba ngunit huli na."Di na po ba kayo papasok ng coffee shop, Ma'am?" Tanong nito sakin bago pinansin ang presensya ni Markus. "Magandang umaga po, Sir Markus." "Good morning. Is your wife pregnant?" He suddenly asked my driver. I almost butt in but my driver spoke fast. "Hindi naman po, sir. Masyado na po kaming matanda para magdagdag pa ng anak. Bakit nyo po naitanong?" may pagtatakang balik-tanong naman nito. "Well, someone said that your wife's pregnant. But then, I
Chapter 22"You'll be here? I mean, you'll stay here from now on?" Di ko napigilang tanong ng makita si Markus dito sa loob ng kompanya namin. Nakasuot ito ng office wear with matching black leather shoes. May suot din itong reading glass na talaga namang naging dahilan para ma-highlight ang mala-italyanong itsura nito.His nose is so freaking good to look at! "Yes," He said before putting his gaze on the workers working for his office. "Your dad requested for me to stay here, and my Dad told me to focus here first since he can handle our company well alone. Your Dad told me that maybe you needed some help in handling the company, so I just obliged." Mahabang paliwanag naman nito. Wala sa sarili naman akong napakagat-labi na nasundan ng pag-iwas ng tingin sa binata. Bakit naman ngayon pa 'to nangyayari kung kailan sobrang iniiwasan ko sya? Is this the real definition of the saying that 'you can run, but never escape?' Lord naman, imbes na si Chad lang ang dapat problemahin ko, din
Chapter 21I STAYED ON MY ROOM FOR THE REST OF THE DAY after that quick conversation I had with Markus. Hindi na din naman ito nag-abala pa na muli akong kausapin or puntahan sa kwarto para i-initiate ang tungkol sa nangyari sa pagitan naming dalawa kagabi. I just stayed alone and continued thinking of the happenings going on between me and Markus, and the people around us. I realized how wrong I was for dragging Chad's name in our situation. I should've alibid other things. I get up from my bed to just walk back and forth and think of the wrong action I made earlier. Bakit ba iyon pa ang sinabi ko? Ano na lang ang iisipin ni Chad kapag nalaman nya'ng ginamit ko ang pangalan nya sa gano'ng sitwasyon? Its like I just used him. Tapos, pag nakarating pa sa kanya ang tungkol sa sinabi ko, baka mailang pa sya sakin pag nagkataon. We're already business partners. He's an investor of our company tapos gano'n bigla. "Ugh, Elizabeth! What are you thinking anyway? Sa dami ng pwedeng rason, b
Chapter 20I WOKE UP feeling all the soreness I could feel possible. Nananakit ang buong katawan ko, ngunit mas matindi ang sakit duon sa maselang bahagi. Saglit 'kong tinuon ang pansin sa lugar na kinaroroonan ko at nakita 'kong nasa kwarto ako ni Markus. I tapped the space beside me but I only felt the softness of the bed. Lumingon ako upang manigurado at napagtanto ko nga'ng wala akong katabi.Markus is gone.Inilibot 'kong muli ang paningin sa buong kwarto bago saglit na pinakiramdaman ang sarili at nagpasyang bumaba. When my feet landed on the cold tiled floor, I felt the cold slowly going upwards to my entire body. But then I continued getting up to go out of the room. Ilang minuto ay tuluyan na nga akong nakatayo. I checked myself and found out that I am only wearing my undies, nothing else. I tried finding for my clothes at natagpuan ko naman ito sa may bedside table. Nakapatong duon, tuping-tupi. At that moment, I knew that Markus is aware of what happened. Bigla tuloy akong
Warning: This chapter contains mature scenes suitable for 18 years and above. Please read at your own risk. ‼️Chapter 19AT THAT moment, my rational mind has been turned off. Wala na akong ibang inaalala kung hindi ang labi ni Markus na kasalukuyang nakadikit sa akin. I am so into our kisses to the point that I cannot think properly anymore. I am already sitting on Markus' lap while still kissing with him fervently. I felt Markus' hand on my back, softly caressing it but it sent goosebumps all over my body. Every touch from him awakens an unfamiliar sensation in me. It awakens the feelings I buried long time ago for him. Markus' left hand held my chin to kiss me deeper. I opened my mouth a bit so that his tongue can enter mine. When it does, I felt how turned on I was. I can feel my self getting wet as we goes on. Napakapit na ako sa kanyang braso at muling nakipaglaban ng halikan sa kanya. Mukhang lasing na lasing na din si Markus kaya't hindi na rin nya mapigilan ang sarili nya.
Chapter 18MARKUS caught me in his broad arms to prevent me from falling. My head is on his neck while his right arm is all over my waist while the other is holding the railings."Are you okay?" I heard him asked, his mouth is not so far away from my ears which made me feel shiver down my spine. His breath slamming on my bare ears and skin is not good for me. It awakens something within me.With that, when I got fully recovered, I pushed myself away from him and stand straight. "I'm sorry. I'm so clumsy today...sorry." I apologized without even trying to look at him. "Its fine. Lets get downstairs," aniya lamang bago kami tuluyang bumaba. Markus and I went directly towards the living room. I sat on the long sofa alone while staring on the half-filled wine bottle above the table. I checked the alcohol content of the bottle and it says 20%. My heart thump. I'm only used to drinking wine's that has 4.5 to 9% alcohol content. I don't know if I could handle this high, but I don't want t
Chapter 17"Elizabeth, are you okay?" Chad's question pulled me out of my heavy thoughts. Kasalukuyan na kaming nasa labas ng Restaurant kung saan kami kumain. Camille is busy talking to her phone kaya't kami ni Chad na lamang ang naiwang magkasama. It has been 30 minutes since 'that' unexpected moment happened, but my head is still in turmoil.By this time, maybe Markus and Mr. Sanderson is already having their meeting at the conference room of their company, while I'm still here surprised and stocked in that moment."It seemed like you're still surprised about Markus did," Chad once again said which made me turned to him in an instance. My brow furrowed. "W—what?" I answered, trying to act as if I didn't hear him at first.Chad smiled. "Markus seemed good in acting. He could've just become an actor if he wants too. Mr. Sanderson was fooled by his sudden actions," he added. I don't know why but hearing Chad saying that Markus is good at acting makes my heart feel pain. Chad indirec
Simula"He's known for being a headache to his family, but it differs when It comes to me..."I was already laying on the bed, and he's on top of me. We're both fully clothed, but we can sense a full-boosted desire in each other's eyes. Napalunok ako habang nilalakbay ng aking mga mata ang kanyang mata, pababa sa kanyang labi. He's also doing the same. After some seconds, his eyes and mine met. The desire is still there-it even heightened more. I saw his adam's apple moved because of a gulp. His hands moved upward-while it was placed inside my T-shirt. Unti-unti iyong tumaas, na labis na nagpa-pikit sakin. It wasn't because of the feeling. I closed my eyes to control myself, and finally do the right decision at the moment. "Stop..." I murmured. Sa sobrang hina niyon ay mapaghahalataan na maski ako ay hindi sigurado sa isinatinig 'kong salita. Tila isa iyong bulong, isang pagpigil, na hindi nais ng taong nagsalita na marinig ng iba. Ngunit napatigil niyon ang binata. Naramdaman k
