All Chapters of Feigned Promises: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Great show!" Kaagad na lumawak ang ngiti sa labi ko nang salubungin ako ng yakap ni Drianna. "Your collection is so gorgeous! As expected from a Renesmee Xin Hades.""Thank you for coming, Dri," nakangiting sabi ko.Katatapos lang ng event and I'm currently here in New York to showcase my work since isa ako sa mga designers na napili para ibahagi ang mga gawa ko."You owe me a dress, okay? That compliment wasn't free," nagtawanan kaming dalawa.I'm a fashion designer and I can say that I already made a name for myself. Kilala na ako at ang mga gawa ko dahil may iilang mga international artists na rin ang nagsuot ng mga 'yon.And I'm proud. Natupad ko rin ang matagal ko nang pinapangarap. I've been only dreaming and working hard for these years ago but now that I'm actually where I am right now, it all felt so surreal."Oh, I heard you're going back to the Philippines the day after tomorrow?" Untag ni Drianna. "C'mon, Renesmee, can't you sta

 "Ba't ang tahimik mo naman ata?" Cleina suddenly asked and I shook my head."Mag-bestfriend lang ba talaga silang dalawa?" Tanong ko.Kumunot naman ang noo niya, "Oo, bakit?"She looked suspicious of something so I answered quickly, "Ang close lang nila. Akala ko nga kanina may something sa kanila."She smiled, "Ganun lang talaga sila."Hindi na kami nagtagal at nagpaalaman na lang din. She said she had to do something so we decided to go home."By the way, Renesmee, baby," mom called me, "We've already decided on the date of your wedding. It'll be a month from now. I think you and your fiancé have to talk about the details of your wedding, sweetie."At the mention of our wedding, a thing crossed my mind, "Mom, can we do the wedding outside the country?" I asked. I was hoping that she'd agree to it. Napaisip kasi ako sa sinabi ni Cleina. This is a loveless marriage and it's already given that my life will be

"We want a grandchild as soon as possible, Brooke," his mother said. Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa pero nag-iwasan lang din ng tingin. This is awkward. Really awkward.Are they expecting me to have kids with a... stranger? I barely even know him! Bukod sa pangalan niya at sa kaalamang gago siya, wala na 'kong alam sa kanya!"Happy honeymoon!" Our parents said before driving away. We were left alone. We were in one of their rest house to celebrate our 'honeymoon'.We were silent when he walked to the sofa and laid down, "Happy honeymoon... Yeah, right," he scoffed.I rolled my eyes before walking to the kitchen to check the fridge. I saw a can of soda so I took it before drinking it. The kitchen was complete with cooking utensils and appliances so I decided to bake chocolate chip cookies. I was planning to have midnight snacks later.I tied my hair to a bun before getting the materia

"What?"That was the first word that came out from his mouth after what I said.My heart was beating so fast. I was so nervous... scared, even.I know that he wouldn't accept the child. Why would somebody want to accept a child that was made out of libido?"I said, I'm... pregnant," my tears are threatening to escape my eyes."Hold on," he said before he stood up and walked to the bathroom.A tear fell from my eye. I knew it. He wouldn't accept the child.Guess I have to raise my kid alone, then.Oh, god.Looking back, I should've taken a contraceptive pill. I should've known better.He returned, wearing an emotionless face.Mas gusto ko tuloy na maiyak. Halatang-halata na hindi niya gusto ang batang dinadala ko. Kung ayaw niya, sabihin niya lang. Palalakihin ko naman ang bata kahit na wal

5 years later..."Mommy!!" I smiled when I heard my princess' voice from downstairs.I went down and hugged her before hugging Kayden, "How are my babies? Did the check up go well?" I asked."Yes, mommy. The dentist said our teeth are healthy," she answered."Really?" I smiled."Yes, mommy. And Kayden didn't cry," she giggled while Kayden glared at her while pouting."Lux!! I told you not to tell mommy!" He said. I laughed because of him. Sa kambal, si Kayden ang makulit, which is normal dahil lalake siya, and he's afraid of dentists. Palagi siyang umiiyak tuwing pumupunta sa kami sa dental clinic every 6 months. Hindi nga lang ako nakasama ngayon dahil may ginagawa akong gown para sa kasal ni Cleina kaya si Brooke ang sumama sa kanila."Very good, Kayden. I told you, dentists aren't scary," I said."They are, mommy. They
