Sweet Redemption 2

Carmella Noise I can't sleep! Kanina pa ako hindi makatulog dahil sa ingay na galing sa labas. Hindi ito malakas, pero nakakabulabog ng utak. Iyong parang musika sa tainga mo at hindi maalis-alis ito. "My goodness! At sino naman ang nagpupukpok ng martilyo sa oras na ito!?" I looked at the time on the vintage wall clock. It's past twelve midnight. Baliw nalang siguro ang gagawa ng ganitong klaseng gawain sa dis-oras ng gabing ito. Kung sa Pinas ito, ay maiintindihan ko. Nasanay ako sa maiingay na traffic sa paligid. The penthouse where I was living for one month was in Makati. I was living in the center aisle of it, and I got used to all the rapid noises and busy life of living. Pero ito ngayon. Nasa countryside na ako nakatira at dapat sana ay ang ingay lang ng mga tipaklong at palaka ang maririnig ko sa gabi. Maliban na nga lang sa mga kalabaw sa kabilang bakod na hindi naman akin! Maiingay ang mga iyon! Lalo na ang mga lalaki. Parang nakikipagtalo sa mga babae tuwing gabi.

Sweet Redemption 3

Brodie."I'm sorry to tell you, Brod, but you must return to Victoria as soon as possible. Your father is dying and wants to see you before it's too late," our family's lawyer, Atty Simone, is on the line."I'll be in first thing in the morning," I responded. Even though it's against my will, I have no choice. I need to go home."Okay. I will fetch you. Bye," Atty Simone ended the call.I came home that same date. I'm glad that I wasn't that far from Australia. I was visiting the company branch in New Zealand when I got the call from Atty Simone. It happened so fast. It seemed like a dream, but it was no longer a dream as reality hit me.Pumanaw si Papa at nakausap ako sa huling pagkakataon, at narinig ko ang huling testamento niya."Fuck. Damn." I gritted my teeth and held my breath when I accidentally hurt my hand."Shit." I wiggled my fingers, and they were all okay."That was close," I said, looking at Almond beside me. He wiggled his tail. I showed him the cut from my pointy fin

Carmella."Ugh! Konti nalang talaga at magiging bulalo na kayong lahat sa akin!" I let an air out, soaking in my own sweat."I swear I'm going to kill your boss. Aalis siya at iiwan kayong lahat na nakatuwang-wang sa buong paligid!? And worst, you animals ruined my backyard!" I screamed in expressed.Mooo! Mooo!Meow? Meow?Tumabi na si Smokey at naupo sa paanan ko. Pangatlong araw na ngayon, at kahit na mahimbing ang tulog ko dahil walang ingay sa gabi ay naiinis ako dahil sa nangyari sa likod ng bakuran ko.Walang available na builder. Lahat sila abala sa mga proyekto. Ang hardenero ko naman ay on leave. Sa susunod na buwan pa siya babalik para maglinis. At heto ako ngayon, pilit na inaayos ang mga halamang natira sa paligid."Ba't ba kasi iyan pa ang kinuha at binili mong lupa? Imagine, you have one hundred acres of land, Carmella. You don't even have an animals around except for the cats. Ni wala ka nga'ng aso sa paligid. Alam mo naman na venomous ang mga ahas diyaan 'di ba? Hind

Carmella."Oh my, God, multo!" Napaatras ako. Iyong tipong lumubas ang kaluluwa ko sa katawan at bumalik lang din."What?""Shit." I stood up, composed myself, and smiled a little bit."G-Good morning, Sir. Uhm, I-I'm here to see the owner of the farm. H-He's cows are eating my plants in my beautiful backyard, and now I have no plants left on that part. The cow wrecked my fences five days ago," I stammered.Eh, sino ba naman ang hindi mauutal sa kanya! Eh, mukha siyang maligno sa paningin ko ano. Utusan yata ang lalaking ito sa farm na ito.Hindi siya umimik at segundong pinagmasdan ako. Hindi yata ako naintindihan ng malignong ito."Oh God. I'm here to complain, okay!" tumaas na ang boses ko."Tell your boss that he needs to pay the damage! Your boss got thousands of hectares of land, but why the hell did those cows trespass on my property? Okay, I get it. Wala namang utak ang mga kalabaw ano. Kaya kasalanan talaga ito ng boss mo!""I don't if you don't understand me. Who cares! Jus

Carmella."What are you looking at? Talk!?" I squinted, "Ano 'to magtititigan nalang tayo hanggang umaga?"Hindi siya umimik. Nakalimutan ko. Hindi pala nakakaintindi ng tagalog ang taong ito. Ba't nga ba ginagawa niya ang normal na gawaing pang-umaga sa gabi? Iba ba ang paningin niya sa buwan? Araw na ba 'to?"Don't you dare make any noises. I'm going back to bed!" I pointed my finger at him and walked away.Mabilis kong pinaandar ang quad bike at gaya ng dati, nasa likod ko na ang pusa. Pinaharurot ko ito pabalik sa territoryo ko.I never realized I went out wearing only my evening dress. I have nothing inside except for my undies. I'm sure he saw what he need not meant to see. And the hell, I care! He can watch me. That's not a big deal.NAGISING AKO sa ingay ng iilang boses sa paligid. Pakiramdam ko ay astronaut ako ngayon. Lutaw kasi ang ulo ko. Kailangan ko ng kape.Before going out to check what was happening outside, I washed and fixed myself. I changed my clothes and combed

Sweet Redemption 7

Carmella."Really? Are you sure about this, Daisy?""Yes, Miss Del Fiore. It's on lease for three years."I sighed. I can’t believe it! I didn't see this coming. Ito na nga ba ang sinasabi ko. Masyado akong kampante sa lahat, at hindi ko man lang binasa ang pinirmahan ko.This is why I don’t do business. It's a headache. The contract is too contradictive for me to understand. I'm not into that. I'm not good at understanding rules, primarily if they are written in legal forms. It's too complicated.Kung baril lang siguro ay kayang-kaya ko ito. Eh, sino ba naman ako? Kung nandito lang sana si Drake ay hindi ako mahihirapan. Pero wala ako sa Italya. Nandito ako sa isang bansa balot sa salitang Ingles at nag-iisa."But the good thing about this, Miss Del Fiore is the money. Wala ka naman sigurong pag-gagamitan sa lupa ano? Are you planning to do beef cows? Or milking? Or plowing the land into some crops?""No. Not really, Daisy. Wala akong alam sa pagtatanim. I just want to have a big la

Brodie.It's weird that she didn't come out after I finished everything. I did all her orders and requests. I covered the holes, fixed the fences, and planted the plants that she needed. It was my obligation anyway. It was written on the lease contract that anything that my animals damaged along her property is my obligation to cover.The electric fence alongside was set, too. I don't want my animals, whom she called 'polka dots', to wander around again in her yard. I felt terrible that my cows damaged most of her beautiful bush and flowers. And the only remedy I could think of is to replace them with new ones.The animals are good. The Angus beefy ones are pretty calm, except for the two male ones that I mixed together with the female dairy ones. And they're the ones that she named polka dots."This is very professional, Brodie. You will win again. I'm sure about that," Jarrod, my cousin, exclaimed while looking into my sculptor masterpiece.It has become my hobby at the moment. Asi

Carmella . "Shoo! Don't look at me, Polka one. Go away!" "And you, too, Polka two, three, four, five, lahat kayo! Shoo!" I dismissively moved my hand, and the bloody cows just looked at me like nothing! Ang hirap pala makipag-usap sa mga hayop. Hindi nila ako naiintindihan at ganoon din naman ako. Hindi ko rin sila naiintindihan ano! Kumunot ang noo ko habang malayo ang tingin ko sa unahan. Nasa likod ako ng bakuran, at sa pinakadulo na ito. The cows are probably five meters away from me. They can't get close because of the electric fence around. Hindi sila bobo, at alam nilang nakukuryente sila sa tuwing nadidikit ito sa balat nila. Masakit din ano! Konting kuryente rin ito. Mga 12volts siguro. Tanghaling tapat na, pero parang may mali sa mga hayop na ito. I know I'm weird, too. I can't deny that. I'm watering my garden at noon! Mataas ang araw at mainit. Pero may halaman na uhaw at nasa ilalim ng puno naman ang mga ito. I ran the hose around the yard. And when the cows hear

Carmella."I see. . . Hmmm, ang linis ng bahay niya!" I smiled as I looked around. I didn't touch anything, but I was impressed by how everything was tidy inside. It's the complete opposite of Brodie.Kung mukhang kapreng maligno si Brodie dahil sa buhok niya at balbas at pananamit, ay iba naman ang bahay niya. . . Malinis na malinis at ni alikabok ay wala.Binuksan ko ang ref at healthy ang options niya sa lahat. Kompletos recados at higit sa lahat, maraming karne sa malaking freezer niya.Mabuti nalang at hindi siya vegetarian. Halata naman sa hitsura niya na karne ang kinakain.Humakbang ako, at sa sala na ito. The paintings on the wall are livid. Creepy and weird? Who cares about Art! It's not my line ano!Isa-isa kong tinitigan ang bawat dispalys na mga picture frame sa napakalaking book shelves niya. Book reader nga naman siya. Eh, ginawa na niyang library ang dalawang malalaking espasyo sa bahay niya.The smell of books is refreshing. It reminds me of my father."Oh, he have t

Brodie."She did what?"Kausap ko si Rob sa kabilang linya at sinabi niya sa akin ang lahat. Carmella is looking after the farm at the moment. She was doing excellent and easy to deal with everything. According to Rob, she's doing great and is learning fast."That's really cool. I can't wait to meet her. What does she look like? Sexy ba?" tanong ni Nathaniel sa tabi ko.I gritted my teeth, and I had no appetite. I can't wait for us to be home. Nathaniel is temporarily with me. May iilang papelis akong ibibigay sa kanya bago siya babalik sa Queensland."Come on, Brodie, talk, mate. I would like to know about this woman named Carmella. Is she the new girl that made your heart flutters?""Flutter may ass. I'm not into her. She's a neighbor, alright. Siya ang nakabili sa bahay ni Mrs Green.""Really? That's cool anyway. I can't wait."I shook my head and sighed silently. There's no point in talking to Nathaniel because when it comes to women, Nathaniel is crazy, which is his weakness."I
