“What’s this?” takang-tanong ni Jasmine kay Charlie habang hawak ang isang envelope.“Why don’t you open it to find out,” ani Charlie, pilya pang ngumiti bago sumimsim sa baso ng juice na nakasilbi sa harap niya.She was at Jasmine and Gray’s house. After visiting the SSL Cruise, doon siya dumiretso. Ayaw na niya kasing patagalin pa ang surprise niya para kina Jasmine at Gray.”T-this is a baby shower invitation… for my baby,” nanlalaki ang mga matang sabi ng matalik niyang kaibigan nang matignan ang laman ng envelope. “Binibigyan mo ng baby shower ang baby namin ni Gray?”“Yes at hindi ka pwedeng tumanggi.” Tumayo siya mula sa garden set na kinauupuan niya sa lanai ta tumabi sa kaibigan. “Please indulge me, Jas. I never had one with Levi. At saka your baby girl needs all the love she could get. Allow me, us, to shower her with all gifts before she’s born. Please.”It’s true she never had a baby shower when she was pregnant with Levi. Not that she doesn’t want to, she did. But she doe

Nagsalubong ang mga kilay ni Gael, umigting ang mga panga. “Why did you block me from your phone?” he huffed out.Agad namang nairita si Charlie. “All of these harassment just to ask me that?”“Answer the question, Charlize,” he demanded, dead set in finding the answer to his question.Namaywang na siya sa inis. “And why wouldn’t I? We’re not friends. You are basically a stranger to me. Besides, I love my peace, Gael. Hindi ko hahayaang sirain mo ang bawat araw ko sa pagte-text at pagtawag-tawag mo.”Umigting ang panga nito, sandali ring naningkit ang mga mata. He looks pissed. Well that’s good, they are in common ground-- they hate each other. Ilang sandali pa, marahan itong nagbuga ng hininga. “Who helped you get the approval for your payment extension?” His stormy gray eyes piercing at her. May pakiramdam siya na kapag pinili niyang h'wag sagutin ang tanong nito, lalo lang itong magagalit. Well, that's what she wants, to anger him more. She lifted her head defiantly and folded he

"So, tell me how your parents are doing? Won't they come home soon? Kalahating dekada na rin sila abroad, aren't they bored?" kaswal na tanong ni Mr. Dominguez kay Charlie. They were already at the balcony of the room he booked, sitting in front of a table set-up for two. And like what he said, the view from there was overlooking the city. Hinayon niya ng tingin ang kabuuan ng siyudad. The night view was indeed breathtaking from up there but it wasn't enough to ease her troubled mind. There was still that knowing feeling in her gut telling her thtat something will definitely go wrong tonight. Mabilis na lumipad ang isip niya kay Levi. She would've been talking to her son right now-- hearing her cute giggles and stories. Oh what she wouldn't give just to spend more tim with Levi. "Charlize?" pukaw ni Mr. Dominguez sa kanya, maya-maya. Kumurap siya agad na bumaling sa lalaki. "I-I'm sorry. You were saying?" "Mukha yatang lumilipad ang isip mo ngayong gabi, Charlize. Par

"What are you doing here?" pukaw ni Gael kay Gray, ang mga mata nasa floor counter ng lift, "My men, her bodyguards, called me. I was nearby so I came as fast as I can," sagot nito. "What about you? Why are you here?" "None of your business," he huffed out. "Right," Gray replied in an amused half-laughing tone. "So tell me, what made you think that Charlie was with Mr. Dominguez?" He balled his fists as he rein in his emotion. "I heard him," aniya, bago sinabi rito ang mga narinig niya kanina-kanina lang. "He said something about a certain Theo. Do I know him? I instantly felt conflicted when I heard his name." Subalit imbes na sumagot, he heard Gray cussed under his breath. Maya-maya pa, mabilis itong nag-dial ng numero sa cellphone nito. "Axel, Jacob, I'm heading to room 1043 now. Don't ask. Just come quickly. Alert the police chief discreetly," anito bago pinutol ang tawag. He silently fished his phone out of his pocket too and sent Hugo a text message. Hindi niya alam k

Muling umigting ang panga ni Gael. "I won't touch you, Charlize not unless you allow me to," he declared, his eyes not leaving hers. Tempting as hell she maybe and in a great need of someone to help her, he cannot just find it him to take advantage of the situation and just have sex with her! He just thought that it isn't right. Hindi ito sumagot, tumitig lang sa kanya. Maya-maya pa, biglang nalukot ang mukha nito. Mariin itong pumikit pagkatapos at umuklo, hawak ang kaselanan nito. "It h-hurts! I-it... hurts," she muttered in between breaths and tears. "G-Gael... Gael, please!" she screamed, her voice hoarse. That's what all it took for him to get his damn act together and focus on the need at hand. Wala na siyang oras mag-isip. Charlize needs him. He quickly discarded his clothes until all that's left were his boxers. He took a few careful steps and joined her in the tub. Maingat siyang pumuwesto sa likuran nito and pulled her over to his lap. Charlize's skin wa
