"HELLO? Where are you now, Alex? Kanina ka pa hinihintay ni Kuya Lennux," medyo irritated na boses ni Kuya Hyjin sa kabilang linya. They are all waiting for me for a family dinner in Kuya Lennux's barn. Ito 'yong dahilan kung bakit n'ya ako pinapunta sa bahay n'ya.
"I'm on my way, kuya. I was stuck in this freaking traffic after I drove Meganne home," I answered.
"You are full aware how heavy the traffic is when rush hour came. Bakit ka ba kasi nagpaabot ng rush hour?" He remains murmuring again. If I'm not mistaken pasikreto lang ako nitong tinawagan. He knows how Kuya Lennux is so impatient and when it comes to this event especially if we're with his in-laws mas gusto n'ya laging kompleto kaming lahat.
"I had no choice. Don't worry, and I'm already in the parking lot how I wish that Ate Prim's family is just like Ate Mellie's family," I rant.
"Pfft! Even if you still know how Ku

Alex's Point of ViewHINDI naman ako masokista kaya iniba ko na lang ang usapan by telling her about my brother's plan for tomorrow. Sana lang talaga kapag umaamin na ako sa 'yo hindi magbago ang lahat. Ayon lang naman ang kinakatakutan ko. Mas natatakot akong magbago ang lahat sa min dahil lang hindi n'ya ako kayang mahalin pabalik. Mas ayos ng hindi na lang n'ya ako mahalin pabalik I can moved on pero 'yong tuluyan siyang mawala sa kin ayon ang hindi ko kakayanin. Sinasabi ko, I am really going back to my darkest times when that happened.I noticed that she is starting feeling cold. Paano ba naman kasi naka-shorts pa siya she's not usually wearing that kind of outfit, more on showing off her skin. Paano na lang kung gan'yan siya araw-araw sa opisina namin maybe I am really fucking pissed off right now. Marami na siguro akong nasisanting empleyado ng Estrellas Group.Before

Alex's Point of View"JOKE lang," she whispered before patting my shoulders."Kelly! Kung gusto mong umangat sa laylayan ng lipunan huwag na kay Vice Chair wala kang panama kay Meg, ghorl!" Marquez said while laughing his heart out. Napakamot ako ng batok ko thinking that Meganne will react but thankfully she was busy talking with Tani and she don't even bother to pay attention to the three of us.Kelly and I both entered the elevator, and they let me stand in front of all of them. Gusto ko pa sanang makatabi si Meganne but she's in the middle of Tani and Belinda hindi na ako makasingit pa. They were all busily chitchatting something, and I remained silent while Kelly's eyes were on me. I don't know what she is doing but based on her smile I know for a fact that she already knows that I'm really in love with my best friend.When the elevator stopped on the 14th floor, where my office is, I got off the elevat

Alex's Point of ViewMEGANNE stayed with me for the whole morning after picking up her in their condominumium. Her friends also explained to her what really happened but what ever happens between the two of us will remain secret. Hindi ko 'yon sasabihin sa kan'ya because I want to tease her, pag-isipin siya nang pag-isipin kung ano ba talagang pinagagawa n'ya n'ong lasing na lasing siya.Pero hindi naman kami halos nakapag-usap na dalawa dahil busy din naman ako. I was really finishing all the things that I will be needing for this afternoon's presentation para mabilis ko lang matapos as I was planning to spend the evening with Meganne lalo na ngayon na huling araw na lang n'ya sa Estrellas.Mas lalo kaming hindi nakapag-usap when my brother called her to inform Meg that the new secretary for the chief executive is already on her way. My brother also told me ahead of time that she will be training the new sec

Alex's Point of View"MEGANNE Lou Laxa, mahal kita, mahal na mahal kita higit pa sa pagiging kaibigan." There you go. I already drop the bomb and I all I can do right now is to wait for her reaction and reply.As expected, nagulat siya. Inabot ko ulit 'yong batok n'ya para halikan siyang muli pero tinulak na n'ya ako palayo sa kan'ya this time. She immediately grabs her bag and started walking away from me.Pero hindi ko rin naman hahayaang matapos ang gabi na 'to na hindi ko mapatunayan sa kan'ya na mahal ko talaga siya at hindi ako nagbibiro.Even if nakalayo na siya sa kin nilakasan ko pa rin ang loob ko pati na rin ang boses ko to shout my feelings for her. I know that she is starting to be confused right now kaya mas pinili n'ya na lang na lumayo sa kin but a ray of hope strike my heart again when she stopped from walking at nagawa ko ng takbuhin siya para mayakap siya mula sa likod.When I was able to hug her ti

Alex's Point of ViewWHEN I entered the main entrance of Estrellas everything seems so normal and outgoing. Parang walang nagbago o kung ano man, napakabilis pa rin ang kilos ng lahat at abala sa kan'ya- kan'ya nilang mga ginagawa."Vice Chair, sa conference hall na po ba tayo sa 15th floor didiretso o may kukunin pa kayo sa opsina?" Ate Pearl asks me before closing the elevator."Diretso na nandoon na raw si Kuya Lennux, ate. Baka umapoy na naman ang ilong n'on kapag nagtagal pa ako," I replied before looking down at my phone. Tinignan ko ang wallpaper kung kami lang naman dalawa ni Meganne. The selfie was taken when we attended a product launching of Esterllas last few months ago.Simula n'ong hindi na pumapasok si Meg dito sa Estrellas papalit-palit na ako ng wallpaper ko pero lagi namang kung hindi kaming dalawa ay mukha n'ya lang. Alam kong napaka-cringe at parang napaka-corny pero kailangan kong tignan

Alex's Point of View"I really don't know why you are still considering someone like this to enter our company, Mr. Estrellas. I think you will be making trouble when you let someone be part of Estrellas Group that is so improper, maniac, pervert and have a bad habit. I'm afraid I have to disagree with this, and I will be leaving. Find another company for this project, for I will not agree to this one. Not with this bastard.""Vice Chair! Teka! Nagbibiro lang naman ako! Labas naman 'yong pinagsasabi ko kanina sa trabaho--""Did I even ask for your opinion? You were started that conversation freely in front of us without even thinking how formal this meeting is. Kung hindi mo magawang maging pormal sa ganito pa lang how can we trust you? Ikaw na rin naman ang nagsabing you are overwhelmed by our presence pero pinapakita mo rin sa min kung gaano ka karuming lalaki. I am so disappointed." I started leaving the hall when I felt that he

Alex's Point of View"HOLD it! Nabingi yata ako saglit, Alex. Anong sabi mo? Meganne Lou Laxa ang pangalan n'ya at ex-secretary siya ng kuya mo? Kailan pa naging ex-secretary ng kuya mo ang babaeng mahal mo? I am too late? Bakit hindi ko alam 'yan? Akala ko ba magkaibigan tayo?!" she yelled."Kailan lang.""Kailan lang?! At bakit? Anong nangyari bakit hinayaan mo siyang masisanti ng kuya mo? How could you be so irresponsible for your best friend and the woman you love? Akala ko ba pinaghirapan mong ilagay siya sa posisyon na 'yan noon?""Cruzette, kuya didn't fire her. She was the one who resigned by her own means. I am not irresponsible as I did my best to talk to her and help her sort things out. Ayaw ko rin namang malayo siya sa kin.""Oh? Anong nangyari at bakit nasa Escala na siya ngayon at naghahanap ng trabaho?""Wala na akong nagawa. Especially after I confessed to her everything change

Alex's Point of ViewI was smiling before putting my phone back in my pocket and started walking when Ate Pearl open the door for me. Tahimik kaming naglalakad at paminsan-minsan ay sumasagot ako sa mga pagbati ng mga empleyadong nakakasalubong namin o nakakasabay sa elevator hanggang sa marating na nga namin ang conference hall sa floor kung nasaan ang opisina ni kuya. Supposedly he will be also attending this presentation but I beg him not to. Mapre-pressure lang sa kan'ya si Meg.When I entered the expansive room, they were all there, and I saw the woman of my life standing in front of them. They all stand up to greet me pero hindi na ako nagpatumpik-tumpik pa and started the presentation immediately. Sa totoo lang pang-formality lang naman na 'to.I know that she is feeling nervous right now kaya ko siya nginitian para man lang mapalakas ang loob n'ya kahit kunti. Ate Pearl started looking at me wearing her. I know

Alex’s Point of View After 5 years… IT’S THE D-DATE. I was walking back and forth in the room with trembling hands and a pounding heart. “Alex, kumalma ka nga,” mom said. She was sitting comfortably on the white couch with white roses in her hands. “Nasaan na po ba sila kuya?” I asked. “Your Kuya Lennux is with Prim, so, and maybe they’ll be here soon,” mom explained. “How about Kuya Hyjin and his family?” I miss my niece, Melea Ferminelle. “Speaking,” mom said pertaining to Kuya Hyjin na nakatayo na sa may pintuan. “Hi, mom and bunso!” He gives me a peak in my cheek and my niece was running towards me, so I lowered my body para mabuhat ko siya. “Mimay, I saw Tita Meme awhile ago. She was beautiful!” Melea is telling with a smile. “Really? How beautiful is she? Is she l

Meganne's Point of View"FINE! I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry. Nainis lang talaga ako. Uso namang i-manifest ang magandang pag-uugali ngayong taon."Sa kinahaba-haba ng prosisyon nina Boss Lennux at Ate Prim ay sa simbahan pa rin ang bagsak nilang dalawa. After ilang years na naging sila ay nagpakasal din silang dalawa. Isang church wedding at h-in-eld ang reception sa isa sa pinakamahal na five star hotel sa lugar namin. Nakahawak si Alex sa bewang ko habang naglalakad kami papunta sa table kung nasaan si Mommy Shin."Mom, si Meg muna ang sasama sa 'yo rito. Kausapin lang namin nina Kuya Hjyin at Kuya Lennux 'yong mga bisita," sambit ni Alex bago n'ya ako paghilahan ng upuan at ipaupo katabi ng mommy n'ya."Sure, anak," sagot naman ng mommy n'ya at hinaplos pa ang likuran ko."Kumain ka na ba, anak? Sabayan mo ako," paanyaya ni Mommy Shin sa kin na agad ko namang tinanguan. Tahimik sana kaming kumakain na dalawa sa table

Clifford's Point of View"PARE!" bulalas n'ong isa sa kapitbahay namin ng makita akong nasa balkonahe ng inuupuhan naming maliit na kuwarto malapit lang din sa condominium kung sana kami nakatira dati. Lintik kasi 'tong si Aikeen pakialamera. Imbes na wala akong prinoproblema sa buhay dahil sa sagot lahat ni Meg ay nangialam pa."Oh? Anong problema mo? Wala kaming ulam kaya sa ibang bahay ka na lang humingi ng pulutan mo," sagot ko naman bago ko ibuga ang usok ng sigarilyong hawak-hawak ko."Balita ko birthday ng bunso n'yo, ah? May pa-catering daw 'yong jowa n'yang may-ari ng Estrellas. Bakit hindi kayo humingi roon?""Sino naman ang nagbalita sa 'yo n'yan? Ano bang petsa ngayon? Birthday ba ni Meg ngayon, Patricia!?" pagkakausap ko sa kapitbahay namin bago ako sumigaw sa asawa ko. Lumabas silang tatlo kasama ng dalawa naming anak."28. Birthday talaga ni Meg ngayon hindi ba tayo pupunta roon? Nagsab

Alex's Point of ViewWHEN finally I was able to open my eyes and see the people around me, it was my mother who I first saw who was looking at me while sitting near my hospital bed."Alex? Alex, gising ka na ba? Oh, my God! Doc! Alex is awake!" she started screaming before hugging me napangiwi pa ako n'ong masagi n'ya ang kamay kong may nakakabit pang hiringilya."Mom, teka lang po. Hindi ako makahinga," I said weakly."Sorry! Gosh! I'm sorry, anak," sambit n'ya sa kin bago ito umatras para makalayo and to make way for the doctor and nurse who responded for her call. My two brothers started entering my hospital room, and Kuya Hyjin was the one who held my mother.The doctor started to run simple things in me, such as looking at my eyes, reflexes, and another thing while my mother started crying."How are you feeling, Vice Chair?" the doctor asked me."I think I'm fine.""Thank God
