Her Test!(Gabion POV)Matapos magbuhat ng ilang barbel at nagcycling, umupo muna ako at uminom ng tubig. Kasama ko si Agus at Dart dito sa isang malapit na gym, sa dulo ng mata ko kita ko sila nakipagkulitan sa mga babaeng nanonood sa amin. Napailing na lang ako.It's 10 am, damn kailangan kong puntahan si Arzelle, for sure nasa shop siya this time!Nilapitan ko si Agus para magpaalam sakanila at sa gym instructor namin."Bro," tawag ko pagkalapit sakanya."Gab ano yon?""Hi Gabion," rinig kong bati nang babaeng naroroon din sa gym."Hi," bati ko pabalik.Nagulat na lang ako nung humarang ito sa harapan ko pumagitna sa amin ni Agus."I'm Crystal by the way," pakilala niya.So what?Pilit akong ngumiti,"Nice meeting you Crystal." saad ko at hinawi siya para makausap si Agus.

There's Something In Him (Arzelle POV) Argh ang sakit ng ulo ko. Dahan dahan kong minulat ang mga mata ko. Hinilod ko muna ang mukha ko bago tuluyang bumangon at inunat ang katawan kasabay ng mga paa at braso. Nasa isang di pamilyar na kwarto ako? Wait? Hinatid talaga ako ni Gabion dito pauwi o kung saan ito? Tsk naparami ang kinain ko kagabi. Wala naman akong naalalang ginawang masama. Bakit parang malabo at wala akong maalala masyado sa nangyari kahapon? Bumangon na ako. Pagbaba ko ng kama nagulat ako dahil malapit ko nang maapakan si Gabion! Nasa baba siya ng kama. Teka di pala ito umuwi? Bakit dito siya natulog sa sahig? Gisingin ko na sana siya pero ang sarap titigan ang mukha niya habang natutulog, para siyang umiilaw at ang cute cute niyang tingnan. Argh ano ba yan? Umupo ako sa sahig at pinagmasdan siya ng ilang minuto. Napatingin ako sa orasan, damn it's 6:30 am. Kailangan ko nang pumasok at magbukas ng shop. Tumayo na ako. Dali dali akong kumilos at pumasok sa banyo

Agus And Aerin (Pangyayari bago gumaling si Dart from a coma) (Aerin POV) Nasa office ako ni Atarah. Atarah Marchan is my cousin. May sariling mga negosyo siya at successful na sa murang edad pa. Pride siya ng aming pamilya. Di ko pinapahalata pero gusto kong maging katulad niya kaya gagawin ko ang lahat maging successful sa huli. Sout ang well-fitted purple dress ko at glass color heels nakaupo lang ako sa likurang bahagi ng upuan ni Atarah sa nakaharap sa glass wall. Ang gandang tingnan ang araw at mga ulap. Kita ko ang init pero di ko ramdam kase aircon ang loob ng office. "You know cous, Agus is avoiding me recently. Late na siya umuuwi ng bahay sa gabi at bago pa ako magising sa umaga wala na siya. Mukhang masaya naman siya nung ikinasal kami?" di siguradong saad ko at bumuntong hininga. "Oh he seems so happy before your wedding? What happen? Siguro di ka mabuting asawa?" Tawang turan ng pinsan ko. "Parang di mo naman alam na nagpakasal lang kami para sa negosyo ng pamily

Familiar You(Gabion POV)Nakita kong busy na busy si Arzelle at ang iba ko pang kaibigan. Pinapanood ko lang sila at mukhang enjoy na enjoy sila sa pagseserve sa mga costumers.Nagpasya akong lumabas para kausapin ang may-ari ng kaharap na store sa harap ng shop ni Ade Sinulyapan ko muna si Arzelle bago lumabas. Tumawid ako at deritsong pumasok sa kabilang store. Tiningnan ako sa lahat ng tao sa loob, costumers and staff. "Hi," bati ko sa mayaring nagngangalang Dania. Lumapit kasi ito kanina sa akin sa labas para magpa-authograph. "Oh hi," gulat na usal niya nung makita ako. "Can we talk?" Yaya ko."Of-- ofcourse," she agreed blushing. "Thankyou," usal ko at nginitian siya."Here, this way," turo niya ng daan pa office niya yata. Sumunod naman ako at pumasok siya sa isang maliit na pinto ako rin."Sit down please," wika niya turo ang upuan."No need, mabilis lang to," sagot ko naman."So what do you want to talk about?" Tanong niya agad."Well, may gusto lang sana akong ipakiu

The Most Wonderful Time of The Year (Gabion POV) “It’s Christmas day…” That’s debatable, I thought, as I wove around my mother’s massive Christmas tree with a bottle of wine in my hand. Every year, they invited hundreds of celebrities and musicians to a holiday bash at her mansion, and hundreds of people showed up, crowding my mother's home. I’d hated these annual parties for as long as I could remember, but I’d never missed one. I was giving up a Saturday evening with Arzelle and the twin to be here. That was love. But I still loved my mother. Since my father died dahil sa lungkot, stressed at depression, I’d been their model son, trying to fill the hole my father had left. Well, most of the time I was their model son. But years ago I was more of a demon than today. Molested a girl at ninakaw pa ang mga anak niya. “Gabby!” That was my friend Agus using the nickname he invented to irritate me. I turned to find him hand in hand with his girlfriend Aerin. Dart and Atarah were ther

Are You Still Interested In Me?(Arzelle POV)I huddled into the smooth leather passenger seat of Gabion’s sports car, resisting the urge to hug myself dahil sobrang nilalamig ako pero ayaw kong ipahalata. I’d hoped to run into him at the party, pero sa daming tao naging malabo. I sucked the drool back into my mouth, feeling like a creeper. The older he got, the more attractive he became. He always moved my world with animal grace.When he got in the other side of his car and looked over at me, I could feel a scarlet blush rising under my skin, because that always happened to me everytime na tinititigan niya ako!“I’m not drunk,” he said. “Not even a little.”“I know.” napa-iling na saad ko.“If I was, I wouldn’t drive you home alone this season,” dagdag pa niya.“I know, it’s okay,” I stretched my legs, trying to be cool. “I’m only a little dizzy myself. Well, it’s mostly wearing off now.”He didn’t answer. In fact, he let out a breath that sounded suspiciously close to a sigh as he

Pussy Tipsy (Arzelle POV) He downshifted as we moved off the parkway and into the city. I loved this city, Cordova, but it always felt claustrophobic after all the chaos 9f my life here mula nung umapak ako I looked out the window, trying not to feel wounded by his obvious disinterest in getting closer to me. It was starting to rain. “Balita ko may binila kang bagong pet kahapon, ano yon?” I asked. “Oh, a little cat, yong walang balahibo, para kay Gaelle,” sagot naman niya. “Ayaw niya na kay Guchi,” I joked tukoy ang alaga kong aso na nasa ilalim ng pangangalaga ng anak na babae ni Gabion. “Guchi is always be her first love,” He glanced at me with a quick smile. “I call her, the cat Tipsy because she looks like drunk. Do you want any pets? Guchi is getting older.” “No. I’ve been moving around too much. Di ko siya maaalagaan ng husto if ever kukuha ako ng bagong pet.” I sighed. “Been very busy huh.” “I’m trying to be more productive,” I said, which was the truth. “Now that

The Danger In Him (Arzelle POV) “Are you okay?” puna ni Gabion. Siguro nahalata niyang balisa ako. I swallowed and shook my head. “Ah yes. Well, a little uncomfortable.” humugot ako ng hininga. “Please, continue.” He put the brush to the it's container, studying me, get another brush and stroke a few more lines. I don’t know what he saw in my eyes. Whatever it was, it was more than I wanted to show him ofcourse. “Please don’t feel uncomfortable” he said, looking away. “I’m sorry. It’s just you and the way you paint and you make the art looks alive. God, there’s something about the connectedness of it, and the way your hand and the canvas looks really familiar to each other." nauutal na saad ko. He paint a little more, a smile teasing at the edges of his lips. “You’ve always been so dramatic, Zelle.” “I know. I’m sorry.” “I like it. I never know what you’re going to say. You always surprised me,” Gabion said lifted the brush and rested it on top of his knee. “In the car, when
