under the earth over the sky

On the day of my wedding anniversary, I was cleaning my house when I found a picture album. As it turned out, my husband had been religiously taking pictures with the girl of his dreams every year on this precise date. He had been doing it since he was forty years old and he was now sixty years old. His hair had progressed from a jet black to a faded white and yet, he kept up the tradition. There was a written message in his handwriting at the back of the picture that read, “Eternal Love.” Since he doesn't love me, I will no longer bother washing his clothes and cooking for him. I will no longer care for his children and grandchildren. I may have foolishly wasted half of my life, but it was not too late to make a change.

Masaya na at kuntento kahit naghihirap sa buhay ang dalagang si Janiya. Para sa kanya, lahat ay makakaya at malalagpasan niya basta't kasama niya ang kaisa-iss na lang niyang pamilya- ang Papa Crisanto niya. Pero paano kung isang araw, bigla na lang siyang iwan ng pinakamamahal niyang ama? Iniwan siya nito nang wala kahit maayos na paalam man lang. Iniwan siya nito nang walang kahit ano maliban sa isang pirasong papel kung saan nakasulat ang dalawang address ng mga lugar na hindi niya alam. Isa na roon ang lugar na tinawag nitong "Mansion de Castillejos". Doon umano nakatira ang matalik na kaibigang babae ng ama niya- si Yvonne. Ngunit nang marating na niya ang mansiyon, isang nakakagulat na rebelasyon ang sumampal sa kanya- dalawang taon na palang patay ang babaeng pakay niya. At ang tanging naiwan nito sa mansiyon ay ang katulong na si Gervacia at ang nag-iisa nitong anak na lalaki, si Strike Vicencio o "SV"- isang kilalang CEO hindi lang dahil sa kagwapuhang taglay nito kundi lalo na sa pagiging enigmatiko at misteryoso- na walang pagdadalawang-isip na inako ang pangangalaga sa kanya pansamantala habang hindi pa bumabalik ang ama niya. Ano ang nakatakdang mangyari sa pagsasama nila ng binata sa iisang bubong? At paano kung unti-unti ay makaramdam siya ng pagtatangi sa lalaki? Lalabanan ba niya ang sariling nararamdaman o ipaglalaban at gagawin niya ang lahat para maangkin ang supladong bilyonaryo, kahit na sampung taon ang agwat ng edad nila sa isa't-isa at nalalapit na rin itong ikasal sa iba?

As floodwaters rushed into the garage, I called my boyfriend. "Wade, help me... I'm trapped in here! The emergency exit's locked!" He sounded annoyed. "Tia, stop. Mandy's cat is stuck in a tree—we're handling it!" Then he hung up, taking the rescue team with him. My last hope was gone.

Si Phoebe Concepcion ay isang babaeng nawalan na ng pag-asa. Matapos silang palayasin ng kanyang ama kasama ang kanyang ina at mga kapatid na babae, inakala niyang makakabuo pa rin sila ng isang payak ngunit masayang buhay. Ngunit nagkamali siya dahil sunod-sunod na trahedya ang nangyari sa buhay niya. Namatay ang kanyang ina dahil sa sakit na cancer at ang panganay na kapatid niya ay namatay dahil sa isang aksidente. Pakiramdam niya ay wala nang patutunguhan ang kanyang buhay, at ang tanging liwanag na lang na natitira ay ang bunsong kapatid niyang si Quila. Labis niyang kinamumuhian ang ama dahil mas pinili nito ang ibang pamilya kaysa sa kanila. Sa gitna ng kawalang pag-asa, nakilala niya si Darius Villarosa — isang lalaking wasak at walang-awang makitungo. Her late sister left a massive debt to Darius, and with no means to repay, he offers a cold solution: a marriage contract. Wala nang ibang pagpipilian si Phoebe. Desperado at walang matatakbuhan, tinanggap niya ang alok. The contract binds them, but will it also warm her heart, or will it shatter her completely? Sa pagitan ng dalawang taong parehong sugatan, may puwang pa kaya ang pagmamahalan o mananatiling malamig na kasunduan lamang ang lahat?

Tatlong taon na ang nakalipas simula noong maghiwalay sina Eloise at Cassian dahil matinding awayan ng kanilang mga pamilya. Napagtanto ni Cassian na mahal niya pa rin si Eloise kahit ilang taon pa ang nakalipas, nagsisi siya kung bakit iniwan niya ang babaeng pinakamamahal at sinisi sa kasalanang hindi naman siya ang may gawa. Muli siyang bumalik sa Pilipinas at desididong hanapin si Eloise. Nais niyang makabawi sa lahat ng sakit na idinulot niya rito at sa pag-asang tatanggapin siyang muli nito at ipagpatuloy ang naudlot nilang relasyon. Ngunit nalaman niyang nalubog na sa utang ang pamilya ni Eloise. Nakita itong oportunidad ni Cassian upang muling kumonekta sa dalaga. Inalok niya ito ng kasal kapalit ng pagtulong niya sa pagbayad ng utang ng kaniyang pamilya. Kahit na mayroong pag-aalinlangan sa dibdib ni Eloise ay tinanggap niya ang kasunduan at naging tulay ito upang ipagpatuloy nilang muli ang nagwakas nilang pag-ibig. Sa kabilang banda naman ay ang kanilang kasiyahan ay panandalian lamang nang malaman ni Carsen, nakababatang kapatid ni Cassian ang muling pakikipag ugnayan sa pamilya ni Eloise, na sanhi ng pagkamatay ng kanilang ina. Dulot ng matinding galit ay handang gawin ni Carsen ang lahat upang maputol ang namumuong ugnayan ng dalawa. Gagawin niya ang lahat upang mawala sa paningin nila si Eloise kahit pa ang tanging paraan lang ay kamatayan. Ang matinding pagkamuhi ba ng kanilang pamilya sa isa't isa ang magiging rason sa tuluyang paghihiwalay ng dalawa? O sapat ba ang kanilang pag-ibig upang puksain ang namumutawing poot na bumabalot sa kanila?
