Maraming salamat sa inyong lahat :) May isang special chapter pa tayo bukas. Once again, thank you for supporting Gabriel and Feleona love story. I will never forget them.
The ray of sunshine showed half of her face, and my brows crossed while looking in her direction. It's stupid of me to do this, but like an idiot, I followed her secretly, and I don't know why. Madalas siyang binubully ng mga kaklase niyang babae at kasama na si Mikah sa pambubully sa kanya. Madalas din niyang tinatakpan ang mukha niya gamit ang espesyal na uri ng panyo na nakatabon sa kalahating mukha niya ito. Katamtaman ang katawan niya at may hugis. Hindi gaanong matangkad at okay lang din ang kulay ng balat niya para sa akin. Medyo payat pero may hitsura. Maamo ang mukha, pero may kakaiba sa kanya. Halatang hindi galing sa mayaman na angkan dahil pabalik-balik lang ang sapatos niya at uniporme. Mukhang isa o dalawa lang ito. Naiiba siya sa lahat ng babae rito sa campus at madalas ay nasa kanya ang atensyon. Matalino kasi siya at nangunguna sa board. "Hey, Gab? No way, man." Akbay ni Josh sa akin. "Is your standard getting to its minimum?" he jokingly said, and I shook my hea
Feleona's POV . Calm down self, let it flow, let it go. My mind speaks in silence while letting the cold water into my face. Gusto kong mahimasmasan sa sarili at nang sa ganoon ay magising ako sa masamang panaginip na ito. Sumabay ang patak ng luha ko sa tubig na pumapatak sa mukha ko galing sa shower. If only I could turn back the time and stop her from going away, she would still be alive. But no, I was also stupid, so much stupid like her. Pinatay ko na ang shower at mabilis na inayos ang sarili. Nagpalit ng damit at pinili ko ang paboritong damit niya. I smiled holding the sexy maroon party dress. Naalala ko lang na binili niya ito para sa akin, pero siya at unang nag-suot nito. Hmp, that lunatic, Careina! Sigaw ng isip ko. I fix myself, trying to be the most beautiful woman tonight. I know it may be too late, but I want to remember her by doing this. Isang taon na din simula nang mawala si Careina at iniwasan ko na ang mundong ganito. I promise myself that I will no longe
Gabriel's POV.Cruising around smoothly while listening to the music on the wireless going home started the day of my early retirement. I love the life I have now. I'm free, nothing to worry about, and no one knows me. I stepped onto the brake, and the garage sliding door rolled up. I park the car inside. Push the little button from my key, and it's locked.The sensor lights came on when it detected my presence. I open the door that leads me to the lounge of this house.Sa kusina agad ako nagtungo at binuksan ang refrigerator para sa malamig na tubig. Tahimik ang buong paligid at walang kakaiba sa bandang ito. Humakbang ako patungo sa ikalawang palapag ng bahay ko para sana mag-shower. Pero napansin ko agad ang konting pagbabago sa upuan na malapit sa library ko.My library room is always open, and from where I stand, I can see the sliding door that leads to the little balcony that connects to the other side of my room. I took a step, walking lightly in the thin air. I could sense th
Feleona’s POV . "Congratulations, Fel. As always ang galing mo talaga," si Sofia sa akin, ang asawa ni Marco. "Thank you, Architect," pormal na tugon ko sa kanya. "And congratulations too, Raquel. I hope the two of you will work as a team?" Papaikutin ko sana ang mga mata ko pero hindi ko ginawa, dahil nasa harapan kami ng maraming tao. I won, as most of the board voted for my design, and Raquel came second. I was confident that I would win this project, and I was right. "We will work as a team, Architect Sofia. Don't worry. I am flexible and can easily blend into everything," arteng tugon ni Raquel sa kanya. "Gecko ka ba?" taas ng kilay ko. Namaywang na akong tinitigan ang bruha. "Hindi, bakit!?" talas na titig niya. "May pa blend in ka pang nalalaman. Ano ka Gecho? Camouflage effect?" Ngiwi ko, at bahagya ang ginawang pagtawa ni Sofia sa amin. I couldn't understand why the two of us couldn't be friends. Tama nga siguro ang kasabihin na sa bawat babae ay may isang ka
Gabriel's POV . "What do you do for a living?" She ran her fingers on my shoulder, and I smirked. "Nothing," I said and shook my head. "Do you want to be my toy? I can give you everything you want." She whispers, and both of her hands are now wrapped against mine. I shook my head and was about to say something, but her lips captured mine. Magaling siyang humalik. Walang pagdududa. Mabilis ang galaw ng kamay niya at pumailalim ito sa damit ko. I kissed her like how she kissed me. It's tempting, and I can feel my hardiness. I know what she wants, and this is always like this to every woman I meet. When I was in the navy and had our short break, most boys went home to their wives and kids. And the rest that doesn't have obligations ended up like this. It's fun to fuck, and there's nothing wrong with it. We need it. I need it. Easy. She moans when she feels my hands around her back. Wala pa akong ginawa dahil nakaupo lang naman siya sa kandungan ko. I never stop caressing the bac
Feleona's POV . Abala ang umaga ko dahil sa panibagon proyekto. Ace will be out of this project because he will hold the Cebu project. Miss Jessica, the secretary of Mr Tolento, will be with me today for the selection of materials. Isa-isa kong kinuha ang mga blueprint na nagawa ko na para maipasa ito sa head developer at nang makita ni Civil Engineer Glenn Mondragon, siya ang head namin pansamantala sa proyekto. "Lunch at the Blue Bells Cafe, Fel. Engr Glenn Mondragon wants to talk to you," si Fatima, sekretarya ni Engr G. We called Engr Glenn Mondragon as Engr G for short. "Really? Bakit daw?" Tingin ko sa suot na relo. Pakiramdam ko kasi hindi ko mahahabal ito dahil sa proyekto. "I don't know. We're not close, Fel. Chaka!" Senyas ng kamay niya at bahagya na siyang natawa. Nakitawa lang din ako. Kalokohan talaga. "Ang chaka 'di ba? Saan ba kasi pinaglihi ang amo mo? Walang warning 'te. Ano siya bagyo?" Ngiwi ko, at mabilis ko nang kinuha ang mga gamit ko. "Sinabi mo ba. Pina
Feleona's POV . "Okay, I'm okay with this." Engr Glenn nodded and signed the papers. "Thank you, Engr," I responded with a smile. I arrived on time. Thank goodness. Akala ko mahuhuli kami dahil pinahinto ang kotse ng pulis kanina at hiningi ang lisensya ng driver ko. Mabuti na lang at inayos niya ang seatbelt ko dahil kung hindi ay tiyak penalty ito. Iniwan ko rin siya sa labas dahil pakiramdam ko late na ako. Pero laking tuwa ko dahil sabay lang din lahat kami. "Let's get them to serve our lunch. Gutom na ako," tugon ni Engr Glenn. Inayos ko na ang lahat ng gamit ko. "And I believe you will join us, Architect Tacadena?" si Marco Mondragon sa akin. "Yes, Sir. I will. Gutom na din po ako," ngiti ko sa sarili. Sumenyas si Marco sa isang staff na nakatayo sa gilid at agad nakuha ang instructions niya. Tumayo siyang bahagya at dinukot ang cellphone sa bulsa. "I will get Gab to join us," si Engr Glenn sa kanya. "Sure, Glenn." Tango ni Marco at tumalikod na muna siya patungo sa m
Gabriel's POV . I couldn't be more stupid of what has come to my mind. I get it. I got her. I have my plans and making sure that I will finish this before the end of the year. May tatlong buwan pa ako, at maraming pang pagkakataon na makuha ko ang buong tiwala niya sa akin. I stood still a few meters from her. I thought we would go somewhere, and that includes her job. But no, we are not because here we are at this lonely, sad place where dead people lay at rest. I felt the pang inside my chest, and it still hurts. . . that childhood memory I have hidden for years still haunts me. "I'm sorry, Siobeh. . . muntik ko ng makalimutan." Tingala niya sa langit at alam ko na pinipigilan niya ang sariling maiyak. She placed the chocolate cake she picked from the cake shop on her grave. A name was written in golden letters. . . Cariena Siobeh Costellos. My jaw clenched and my hand fisted behind me. Hindi ko man lang nakuhang makita si Diego sa huling pagkakataon noon dahil sa trabaho ko.
