2021-12-24 01:37:00NANG MAKAUWI NA si Ross ay agad din naman kaming nagpahingang tatlo nina Chadleen at Deon. The preggy was unusually silent tonight. Hindi naman sa maingay siya, talagang nakakapanibago lang na ganito siya ngayon.
I sighed and moved to face him. Iyong isang braso ko ay nasa ilalim ng unan ko na pinapatungan ko naman ng ulo ko. I found Deon already staring at me. Hindi ako poetic na tao… or beast pero kita ko sa mga mata niyang puno siya ng mga bagay na gusto niyang sabihin sa akin.
“Do you want to tell me something?” I finally asked him.
Nakatitig lang talaga siya sa akin. Kahit hindi nagsasalita ay nangungusap nang lubusan ang mga mata niya.
“Deon—”
“You really didn’t feel anything earlier?” he asked, cutting me off.
It was my turn to just stare at him with my lips pursed. I did… I was lowkey feeling it for him, but I was also highkey never going to let him know.<

IT WAS ALREADY the weekend. As promised kay Deon, I took him out. Una kaming pumunta siyempre sa may ospital ng papa ni Ross. He also met what he had promised. Pinadala niya talaga iyong mga pinangako niyang vitamins sa penthouse namin sa mga fae na nagtatrabaho sa Cavendish Suites.According to the ultrasound results, our baby was safe and healthy. Bumalik na lang daw kami after two weeks dahil magiging 18 weeks nang buntis si Deon, and by then, we can find out the sex of our baby.“Anong gusto mong kasarian ng baby natin?” Deon asked me as we strolled around the Lifestyle District of the Capital.Hindi ako nakasagot agad kasi hindi ako makapili kung anong gusto ko. Ang hirap kasi, e. Basta isa lang ang alam ko. Kahit babae pa siya o lalaki o anumang gusto niyang maging, mamahalin ko pa rin siya nang buong-buo.“Hindi ako makapili, e. Ang hirap… Basta love ko siya kahit ano pang gustuhin niyang maging. Ikaw ba?&r

I UTTERLY FELT like a loser in my stay at the Institute of Magis so far. I hope this would end so soon, but who on earth and Abseiles am I kidding? The failures I had committed in my classes amounted to almost fifty counts, almost half of my entire stay here.“Aɱűra Aɱűʝa!” I chanted the materializing spell but ended up making the cylinders in front of me explode.I looked at Madame Latakia apologetically before mumbling, “I’m sorry…”I saw her sigh and shook her head slowly. Argh! I already felt like a huge disappointment. Goddamnit!“NøĹ‹Éł Víʂʤa bøbἰr!” sigaw ko sabay turo no’ng hair stick ni Chadleen sa isa sa mga anino ni Professor Grimm na may mukha na pinagamit niya sa amin upang gawin ang enchantment exercise namin sa araw na iyon – ang magpatulog.I chanted the sleeping spell. Nagulat ako nang sobra dahil sa kasamaang palad, sa halip na patulug

AFTER OUR CLASS with Madame Latakia, I went to the comfort room to retouch. Nandoon pa rin iyong kaba ko sa tuwing pumapasok ako rito mag-isa dahil na rin sa fugly beast na ‘yon na na-encounter ko sa may state college noong nag-aaral pa kami ni Chadleen sa Sidero, but I can proudly say na I somewhat overcame that fear kasi kahit pumapalpak pa rin, at least, I already know how to magic now. I can somehow defend myself from him and others.When Lindsey and our other classmate, who called me tanga days prior to this day, barged inside the restroom, I did not mind them. I just continued putting on my favorite shade of lipstick, unbothered by their sickening presence.“Palpak na nga sa mga klase natin, may time pang magpaganda,” parinig no’ng isa, ni girl tanga, habang naghuhugas sila ng mga kamay nila sa tabi ko.Girl tanga tatawag ko sa kanya dahil bukod sa gigil pa rin ako sa kanya ay tinatamad ak

I SPENT THE whole night burning my midnight candles. I spent the entire night just studying because it will be our first periodical exam at the Institute of Magis tomorrow. Para sa bagsaking tulad ko, I have to do good with this one because it was the only way I could make up for all of my failures and mistakes in the class. Dito ko mapapatunayang may natutuhan din ako at kaya kong gamitin ang mga iyon sa tamang paraan. “Hindi ka pa ba matutulog?” tanong ni Deon sa akin. “Kailangan ko pang mag-aral para bukas,” sagot ko nang hindi tumitingin sa kanya. Masyado akong busy ngayon para tingnan pa siya. Kailangan ko talagang magpokus sa mga pinag-aaralan. I heard his footsteps away and out of our room. Baka may nakalimutan lang siya kaya lumabas. Tahimik kasi, e. I did not keep track of how long it took him to return. Basta pagbalik niya ay may dala na siyang isang baso ng gatas. Napaangat tuloy ako ng tingin sa kanya nang ilapag niya iyon sa ibab

IT WAS THE month of the acquaintance party. Ang tradition kasi sa Institute of Magis ay every after first periodical exam ang acquaintance party nang sa ganoon ay makapagpahinga rin ang parehong mga estudyante at propesor. I kept glancing at my Cartier wristwatch and drumming my fingers atop our table in the canteen where Ross and I were waiting for Chadleen to arrive. It was past twelve in the afternoon, and I am already famished. Where on Abseiles was she, really? I stopped drumming my fingers and asked in an irritated tone, “What’s taking her so long? Goodness, I’m already starving!” Ross only glanced at me for a second then resumed typing on his phone. I know it was Ruby Lane again. “Why don’t you just eat there? I bet Chadleen was still with the whole committee for the preparation for the nearing acquaintance party,” said he. “She should eat, too.” “Just take your lunch, Ge. I’m sure hindi naman siya pababayaan ni

IF TRUTH BE told, sobrang kabado ako today. Actually, every time naman na pupunta kami sa doktor para magpa-check up sa kalagayan ni Deon at ng baby namin sa ospital nina Ross. Napapraning talaga ako kasi baka napaano na iyong baby namin, o baka may nararamdaman si Deon na hindi maganda pero hindi niya lang sinasabi sa akin dahil marahil natatakot siya o nahihiya. Hindi ko talaga alam basta kabado ako sa tuwing ginagawa namin ‘to.Napatingin ako kay Deon nang abutin niya ang kaliwang kamay ko at hawakan. He was already lying on the hospital bed while the sonographer was preparing everything for the ultrasound.“Ayos ka lang ba?” tanong niya.Tumango naman ako bilang tugon. I then breathed to calm myself down.“Ganito pala ‘yong feeling ng mga normal na tatay kapag sinasamahan nila ang mga partner nilang buntis. Gosh, nakakakaba na… nakaka-excite.”Apart from being nervous, I was also

WE INFORMED MY whole family about it. Iyong sinabi lang namin ay alam na namin ang kasarian ni baby. They did not let me finish because they said na they wanted to know the baby’s sex in a reveal party. Yes, my family was planning a sex reveal party, and they were all coming to Abseiles over the weekend to celebrate with us.“Just prepare all the things we will be needing there already, sweetie. Malapit na kami. It’s only five minutes away before midnight. Lilitaw na rin iyong Grimm Express ilang sandali na lang,” mommy said through the video call.Sumingit naman si Mignonette sa video upang ngitian ako at kawayan. “Ate Gelou! Can I see my pamangkin?”Mommy and I both chuckled at that. Kung mayroong isa pang pinaka-excited sa paglabas ng baby namin bukod sa amin siyempre ni Deon, iyon ay paniguradong ang first-time little tita na si Mignonette. Ang cute-cute lang ng baby sister ko. Makurot nga siya nang bongga

IT HAD BEEN days since dad and I talked, but I am still bothered as hell because of it. Nahihirapan ako kasi hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko. I wanted to ask Chadleen about what happened to Tito Khalil and her mortal mother kaso ay natatakot ako sa kung anumang malalaman ko. Kung oo, gagawin ko rin ba at bibitiwan si Deon; kung hindi naman, handa na ba akong suwayin ang pamilya ko? Ang hirap; ang gulo. Hindi ko alam kung saan talaga ako dapat lumugar.“May napili ka na bang susuutin sa acquaintance party?”“Ha?” tanong ko naman pabalik nang matauhan.Pagbaling ko sa kanila ay agad kong nakasalubong ang nag-aalalang mga tingin nina Ross at Chadleen. I almost forgot that we were actually inside one of the malls owned by the Cavendish. Dito kami dinala ni Ross para sa last minute na pamimili at pagpapalit ng mga susuutin namin sa acquaintance party which will be held the next day.“May problema ba, Ge? You seemed p

Ciao! This is the special chapter. Thank you so much for being with me in this long journey, and see you on our next one, on the second Witchita installment – the Rich Witchita Problems. Warning: This chapter may contain scenes not suitable for readers aged eighteen and below. Reader discretion is advised. TODAY WAS MIRACLE’S second birthday and mine and Deon’s first wedding anniversary. Sinadya talaga naming isabay sa birthday ni Miracle ang kasal namin noon para mangyari ito – isang double celebration. However, Deon and I felt really exhausted with our daily routine, papasok kami sa kolehiyo nang salit-salitan tapos aalagaan namin si Miracle at gagawa pa ng mga gawaig-bahay. Ayaw niya pa rin kasing kumuha ng makakatulong sa amin sa pag-aalaga kay Miracle dahil gusto niyang maging hands-on kami sa pagpapalaki sa anak namin. I let him because I feel like he was doing this to project the things he wa
Witchita's Guide to Successful Parenting   The Back Matter
Hello, Charmings! 🤗 This will be the end of a guide called the back matter, or simply the epilogue. I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude that you have come with me this far. I will forever treasure all the gems, reviews, comments, and coins that you have shared with me. Writing Witchita’s Guide to Successful Parenting has always been one of my greatest dreams – a witch’s story that would undertone a deeper theme which was about sex and gender roles. Now, I am glad to announce that the story of this Witchita Family will not end here. We will still have 3 or more tales under the Witchita Series. We will have Ross and Ruby Lane’s story, Chadleen and Felix, and Mignonette and her ringmaster love interest (yes, a carnival theme story). Without your support, I would not have also reached this far. I certainly owe you a lot, and I will promise to make more and improve in each st

DUMATING NA SINA Chadleen at Felix dito sa dating bahay namin sa Sidero. I called them to enlist their help in freeing Deon’s whole pack from Igor and Vicenzo. “Natawagan mo na ba sina tito?” nag-aalalang tanong niya agad sa akin pagkatapos niya akong yakapin. “Oo, natawagan ko na sila. We need their help, too. Nagulat sila at nagalit but then when I told them na balak gamitin ng mga Nodram mula sa South Region ang pack nina Tito Leon upang sakupin ang buong Abseiles ay pumayag naman sila agad. Actually, they’re already on their way here.” “Sinong kasama nila?” “Mommy said it will only be daddy, Kuya Will, and Tito Khalil.” “Si Miracle?” she asked after looking around. “Did you make sure that they are in a safe place?” Tumango naman ako upang siguraduhin iyon sa kanya. “Nasa kina Ross sila kasama nina Tita Dimples at Kidlat.” Sunod ko namang binalingan ang kapatid niyang si Ruby Lane na tahimik lang habang mata

WE WENT IMMEDIATELY to the Cavendish Palace. Pagdating namin ay agad kaming iginiya ni Ruby Lane sa parang meeting hall ng lugar. Ross was still attending to the kids kaya hindi agad namin siya nakita o nakausap man lang. Dumiretso lang kaming lahat dito. Inihiga ni Deon ang wala pa ring malay na si Tito Leon sa upholstered couch na nasa tabi.“Manang, pwede pong pakitawag si mama rito?” magalang na utos ni Ruby Lane sa katulong na umalalay sa amin papasok dito. “Pakisabi na rin po sa kanyang dalhin po iyong mga niluto niya kasi kailangan na po namin dito.”Naalala kong kaya palang magpagaling ng mga pagkaing nagagawa ni Tita Dimples. Hindi ko tuloy maiwasang mapapatitig sa kalmadong si Ruby Lane habang nagbibigay ng iba pang mga panuto sa empleyado. She was calm and really… smart. Pulidong-pulido iyong plano niya and not a slightest sight of panic can be observed from her. Sobrang talino ni Chadleen but she would sometim

OUR TALK WENT on where we found out more about the past of the Acosta Family that can be traced back to us and also to what happened to Deon’s pack.“I-I am sorry…” pausal na paghingi ng paumanhin ni Tupe sa akin habang nakayuko pa rin ang ulo niya.Thinking about the things that happened in the past, I suddenly realized that Tupe scared the hell out of me and yet… he never hurt me. Looking at him now, I understood why. He might look terrifying but he was never the type who will hurt anyone. Nakayuko lang iyong ulo niya na para bang nahihiya akong tingnan sa mga mata ko kahit na hindi naman niya ako talagang nakikita. Tama nga si Tita Dimples. She did not raise her children to become violent and evil. Tupe seemed more like a gentle giant to me. Mukhang napilitan lang talaga siya noon…Tinanguan ko siya at sinabihang, “Naiintindihan ko na ang lahat ngayon. You have my forgiveness.”Dahan-d

RUBY LANE HAD taken us to her family home. Gusto pa sanang sumama ni Ross sa amin pero pinagbawalan na siya ni Ruby Lane. To make him really stay, she told him to take good care of Miracle while we were away. Hindi naman na umangal pa si Ross at pumayag na lamang na manatili roon. Hindi na rin kami nagpahatid pa sa drayber niya dahil iyong sasakyan na nirentahan na lamang namin ni Deon ang ginamit namin papunta kina Ruby Lane.When we reached her place, we found her abode to be simple yet seemingly bright and alive. There were different sorts of plants in their yards which ran a gamut from flowering to non-flowering and from big to small. The plants beautifully matched and ornamented their house’s white wall with brown outlines for doors and windows that were made from wood. It gave a certain type of peace and familiarity. Iyon bang kahit na hindi magara ay naroroon iyong tunay na kayamanan sa loob, sa bawat miyembro ng pamilya nila.“I lik

RAMDAM NA RAMDAM ko ang bigat at tensyon sa pagitan nina Deon at ng Beta ng pack nila na si Igor. Kung hindi ako nagkakamali ay siya rin ang tatay ni Richelle. Ngayon ay alam ko na kung saan nagmana ang isang iyon.“Nasaan si papa?” mahinahon ngunit madiing tanong ni Deon kay Igor.He looked calm and serious, but it was the kind of calm before the raging storm. His fists were also clenched and the veins in his forearms were now visible. I know that he was trying so hard to control his anger. Halatang-halata iyon sa kulay pula na niyang mga mata. Pinipigilan niya lang talaga ang sariling sumugod agad. I hugged Miracle more. Hindi ko hahayaang may mangyari sa kanilang dalawa.“Inilagay ko lang naman niya sa dapat niyang kalagyan,” nakangising tugon ng Beta, iniinis at pilit na pinipigtas ang natitirang pagpipigil ni Deon.“Uulitin ko… nasaan si papa?”I had also observed that some men who we

NAGPAALAM NA KAMI sa parents ko tungkol sa plano namin ni Deon na pag-uwi sa kanila sa Sidero at ang pagsama rin namin kay Miracle roon. Of course, they disagreed. Ilang araw ko rin silang kinulit na payagan na lang kami. Mahaba-habang kumbinsihan ang naganap. I kept assuring them that I can now control my chi and Deon had already unlocked his Alpha potentials. If there will be emergencies, we can surely fight and protect Miracle and ourselves. At the end, they still did not agree.“Hindi ko maintindihan, Chad. Hanggang ngayon ba naman ay hindi pa rin nila ako pinagkakatiwalaan?” tanong ko sa pinsan kong tahimik na nagtutupi ng mga bagong labang damit ni Miracle.It was Deon who washed them, by the way. Ako lang talaga ang nagligpit dahil nga may pasok pa siya sa University of Portofino. Hindi ko rin naman natapos sa pagtutupi dahil umiyak si Miracle at nanghihingi ng gatas kaya pinapadede ko na muna siya ngayon habang nakatayo ako at marah
