All I askA novel written by xxakanexxSometime in the future..."Is Alejandros back?"It was Pan who asked me about our brother Alejandros. I don't know if he is back already. It's been a week since I last talked to him. I am actually waiting for him too because I am going to use the plane because Ada wants to go to Disneyland. Gusto ko naman siyang dalhin, silang dalawa ni Danielle para bago magsimula sa school ang panganay ko ay makapasyal pa kaming apat."I don't know. I haven't talk to him yet. Do you need anything? Anything that I can help you with?" Tanong ko kay Pan. She looked at me. Naupo siya sa chair ni Alejandros. I was grinning at my sister. Ngumuso siya."Hindi mo naman maiintindihan itong designs ko. Bakit ba kasi you're so business minded? You always think about the pros and cons. You always think about assets and liabilities, Kairos, why don't you just use your imagination and your heart?"I use my imagination. I used it by thinking about my future. A family and now

ConfrontationKairos Gregor Rouvin Vejar'sCatherine let me in but she let Ody in too. I was watching Ody and the kid. It seems that they have known each other for a very long time. The kid was playful with Ody. He calls him Mr. Ody. They were laughing. Ody seemed to know his way around Cachi's home.I saw Catherine approaching. She told me to stay in the veranda and now she's walking towards me. She looked tired. Para bang kulang na kulang siya sa tulog. And I wondered why. She finally faced me."What's this?" I asked her."Kairos this---""What is Ody doing here huh?"Napaawang ang mga labi niya."Why do you care so much? What is it with you if Ody is here? He's a—""What is he doing here?" I was hissing by that time. She emitted a long breath."He's just here visiting the kids." Sabi niya. Lalong nag-init ang ulo ko. I looked away from her and the I exasperatedly sighed. And then I faced her again."You never tell me anything! He fathered your child and yet you didn't tell me! When

Baby DaddyKairos Gregor Rouvin Vejar'sI found myself walking away from the hospital. I don't know where to go. I couldn't get Cachi's image out of my head. I couldn't seem to forget the amount of pain she has in her eyes. I really did screw up our friendship. I should've listened to Amalthea. She knows things and she told me not to say anything to Cachi if I am still gonna marry Mariake the day after. But I couldn't keep it to myself anymore...I just...I really can't.I sighed.I kept on walking until I found myself in front of the school where Cachi's son was. Naisip kong puntahan iyong bata. I dunno why, maybe because I am feeling guilty. I really wanna punch the father of the kids for letting them experience this. Ody, he's a bad father. Hindi niya dapat pinababayaan ang mga bata. The other one was too weak. He should've known better. Sa tingin ko, hindi rin alam nila Uncle Hermes ang tungkol sa mga bata.He's just an asshole. Mas matindi pa siya kay Yael. At least Yael had the

The GeminisCachi'sMarch 23, 2003"Good morning, Miss Cinco."It's eleven in the morning and I just got out from an eight-hour shift. Nag-text lang si Kairos sa akin na susunduin daw niya ako pagkatapos ng duty ko. Nagreply lang ako ng K. Alam naman na niya kung anong ibig sabihin noon. Ang busy ko naman kasi kanina. Ang daming tao tapos umaga pa lang may namatay na. Grabedad!Agad akong inabutan ni Kairos ng Hot Chocolate galing sa paborito kong bubuyog. Binuksan naman kaagad niya iyong pinto ng kotse para makasakay na ako. Sumunod siya. I smiled at Kuya Marvin."Good morning, Kuya Marvin. Saan po tayo pupunta?""Sa CLPH daw, Miss Cinco."Tumingin ako kay Kairos. Naka-coat and tie siya na kulay gray. Ayos na ayos iyong buhok niya. Ngumisi ako. Ginulo ko iyon."Catherine, did that make you mature?" Kunot noong tanong niya. I made a face. Ang sungit. "Drink your chocolate. Take a nap. It's gonna be a long drive.""Ano bang gagawin natin sa CLPH?" I asked him. May binabasa siyang mga p

Five wordsKairos Gregor Rouvin Vejar's"What else do you like?"The supposed to be two day visit in Seattle became a whole month. Pauwi-uwi naman ako sa Pilipinas pero tuwing Biyernes ay bumabalik ako at umuuwi ulit kapag Lunes ng gabi. Isang buwan nang ganoon ang sitwasyon ko. I didn't know that time flies so fast. I am enjoying my time with the twins even though we're always inside the four walls of Rom's hospital suite. Si Catherine Fe, hindi niya nakakalimutang ipakita sa akin na hindi niya ako gusto but I guess, she's just letting me dahil nahihiya siya kay Alejandros. Tang ina, bandang huli naging utang na loob ko pa kay Alele na nakakalapit ako sa mga anak ko."C'mon, tell me what else do you like?" Nakangiti ako habang nakatingin kay Rom at Rem. Ako ang sumundo kay Rem kanina sa school, buti nga tinawagan ako ni Alejandros para sabihin na sunduin ko si Rem sa school, naririnig ko sa background na umaalma si Cachi pero wala siyang magagawa dahil may event siya ngayon at kailan
