SprainWhen I saw him unexpectedly at my old house, naisip ko na namiss ko siya ng sobra. I missed everything about him.We did have a lot of misunderstandings six years ago. Eventually, it started with me, having a crush on him. I realized he also likes me because of the simple things he did. Giving me foods, even medicine, and the way he acted towards me. Nahalata ko na 'yon noon. After that, we became a couple. We were happy back then. We're happy that I almost forgot our differences. Pero with the memories we shared, isa lang ang naintindihan ko. Mahal ko siya. Mahal na mahal ko siya. Mahal ko siya kahit na pilit ipinagmumukha sa akin ng reyalidad na malayo ang agwat namin sa isa't isa. Mahal ko siya kahit na maraming hadlang sa'min. I learned a lot from him. Alam ko sa sarili ko na may pagkakamali rin ako noon. And that is I have issues on trusting people. I'm very good at hiding my emotions. Even though I'm hurting, sasabihin kong ayos lang ako since I don't want to be a burden

Warning: Medyo SPG!-----------------------------------CaughtFor the past six years, I haven't been in a physical relationship. Kumbaga sa subject pa na 'to, e, bagsak ako. I need to hide myself since everyone believed I was already dead. Sa New York, may iilan din akong nakaksalamuhag lalaki. Mostly trusted investors, if not, Devon's trusted friends. Hindi man ako madalas nakakalabas, Devon makes sure I gained friends kahit iilan lang. During that time, may mga nanligaw pero ni isa wala akong pinayagan. And for those six years, I preserved myself. I believed one particular man will come after me, and love me dearly kahit alam kong imposible. At kapag sigurado na ko, saka ko ibibigay ang bagay na pinakaiingatan ko. Sometimes, I imagined it to be Anzo kahit alam kong imposibleng mangyari lalo pa't napapadalas ang balitang paiba-iba siya ng babae. He's every woman's dream. He's my dream pero malabong mangyari, malabong maabot ko siya. Namungay ang mga mata ko pagkatapos niyang sa

TeaseI woke up the next morning dahil sa bagay na nakadagan sa aking tiyan. I opened my eyes and a breathtaking view greeted me. It was Anzo, peacefully sleeping beside me. Parang bata siyang nakayakap sa akin. His hold was tight, para bang tingin niya e tatakas ako kapag hindi niya hinigpitan ang yakap sa'kin. I was startled at first, but eventually nakabawi rin. Hindi ko man lang naramdaman na tumabi siya sa akin kagabi. Was I that exhausted to not feel his presence? Well, I believe this guy wouldn't let me off this time. When he said those words yesterday, naisip ko na hindi niya 'ko hahayaang makakaalis pa. Instead of moving, I didn't make any noise. Pinagmasdan ko ang maamo niyang mukha habang himbing na himbing sa pagtulog. Maingat kong hinawi ang nakaharang niyang buhok dahil gusto ko siyang mapagmasdan ng maayos. Mas lalo niya pang isiniksik ang kaniyang mukha sa aking leeg. I chuckled a bit and ipinagpatuloy ang paghawing iyon sa kaniyang buhok.Ano'ng oras kaya siya pu

DoubtI kept on thinking, how is it possible? Paano ko maibebenta 'yong kompanya, e, nasa pangangalaga 'yon ni Devon? Is that why he kept on avoiding the topic since may ganon nang nangyayari? I don't want to think anymore. Kahit saang anggulo ko tingnan, hindi ko talaga maisip kung paanong nangyari. If one person knows everything, that's Devon. Hindi na ako nag-aksaya pa ng oras at mabilis na di-nial ang numero niya. Pero nakailang tawag na ko't hindi niya pa rin sinasagot. No. Mali ang iniisip ko. Devon will never betray me. Hindi niya magagawa 'yon. We've been friends for almost six years, at hindi lang kaibigan ang turing ko sa kanya. He's like a brother to me. I took a deep breath para ibaling sa iba ang atensyon ko. My thoughts flew on Anzo. He was busy again— he's out to run some errands. Someone called earlier, at nabosesan kong babae 'yon. Hindi ko na lang pinansin dahil hanggang ngayo'y nag-aalala pa rin ako sa JoyTunes. I immediately called Attorney Marquez, our compan

Warning: SPG!_____________________Text MessageI bit my lips again and glanced at him with pleading eyes. Pinakiramdaman ko ang sarili kung paanong magtaas-baba ang tahip ng aking dibdib. I was nervous but the excitement of doing it with him will never leave my thoughts. "You might regret everything after this."I answered him with a kiss. "No. I won't. I readied myself for this. Take me, Anzo... I'll be a good girl. A very good girl..."Tila naputol ang litid ni Anzo dahil sa pagpipigil. In a swift motion, he immediately lift me up using his firm arms. Still, I grabbed the chance to kiss him. Pilit kong inaabot ang kaniyang mga labi na kay sarap halikan. Hindi na siya nagsayang pa ng oras at mabilis na naglakad. While at the stairs, he cursed many times as I continued to kiss him. "Damn it, baby! You're killing me," he groaned. Everything was fast. Hindi ko alam kong paano kami nakarating sa kwarto. It was definitely his room because of the scent, just like his. I heard the b

Ikaw LangI can't stop myself from thinking. Why am I starting to doubt the people around me? Una, si Devon and now... si Anzo. I know. I don't have any evidence to accuse them pero little by little, nagdadalawang isip na ako kung mapagkakatiwalaan ba lahat ng taong nakapaligid sa akin. I'm having trust issues again. I left the house earlier even though hindi maganda ang pakiramdam ko. Sinamantala ko na ang pagkakataong 'yon dahil wala si Anzo. Besides, I don't know what to react when I see him. Nang makarating sa bahay, I wander around. Kuya's not here since he told us na uuwi siya sa Sta. Prexedes There's no sign of Devon too. Normally, he's here pero maagang maaga pa wala na akong makitang bakas niya. "Edna, asan si Devon?" I asked nang makapasok sa loob. "Hindi po umuwi si Sir Devon simula pa po kagabi, Ma'am. Pero tumawag po siya kanina. Sabihin ko raw po na may mahalaga siyang inaasikaso.""Salamat."Tumango ako at tumungo na sa kwarto. My heart feels heavy. Tulala ako ma

Never Let You GoThe first week of December came. Fifth of December to be exact. Isang buwan na rin pala ako rito sa Pilipinas. Pansamantala kong kinalimutan ang tungkol sa huling nangyari sa amin ni Anzo. After the call, he stayed by my side. We cuddled. Alam kong kinukutuban ako pero mali pa rin na pagdudahan siya lalo pa't wala akong ebidensiya. But... once I proved that my hunch is right, I will stay away from him. I promised myself to support him. That's the way I know how to love. I will sacrifice my own happiness. If they really had a thing, I would accept everything. Gladly.Hindi nagkukulang sa akin si Anzo. He texts me everyday, calls me even in the middle of his meetings. Uuwi rin siya sa Holme's Villa at matutulog. Kung minsan naman, ako ang pupunta sa East Village at matutulog kasama siya. It's a miracle that we haven't done it again. Well, I'm a little bit shy to open up that kind of sensitive topic to him. Though we're both adults, may kanya kanya pa rin kaming priori

Don't Close Your EyesWhen I was young, Mama once told me na darating ang lalaking para sa akin. The man like Papa. The man that will love me more than anything else. At hindi siya magsasawang iparamdam sa akin kung gaano ako ka espesyal. I was just infatuated at him at first, but preparing all this for our monthsary makes my heart melt. Hindi lahat ng lalaki, katulad niya na ma-effort. He walked towards me with soft eyes and a smile on his face. "Happy 1st monthsary..." He then smiled. "You told me you want to experience these kinds of things. We can't date for now, or even go in public so I planned this. I know it's a bit... cheesy and I feel like we've come back to being teens."I didn't speak. Pinagmasdan ko lang gwapo niyang mukha. No words can describe what I'm feeling now. And I can't help but to fall in love with him again. Instead of saying anything, I leaned towards him and encircled my arms around his neck, hugging him tightly. He was a bit surprised with what I did. Na
