(GRIEGO COUSINS #1)
Seven years after his mother's tragic death, Angelus Griego's father, Simon Griego, made a life-changing decision to marry a wealthy businesswoman with a troubled past and a sick child. Angelus, known for his charm, intelligence...

He never told me that he liked me. Kaya hindi na dapat ako magulat pa. Simula pa lang alam ko na kung anong klaseng tao siya. Did I forget how he fucked my mother's designer while I was around? He's that kind of person from the start. Nakalimutan ko ata dahil sa nangyayari sa aming dalawa.
He's a womanizer. He doesn't like me. But what was that threat for? Why was he so willing to cut his neck if I left him? He always seems so desperate when it comes to me, and I forgot about his reputation pagdating sa mga babae.
Matapos kong mabasa ang message na iyon mula kay Carina, doon ko naalala ulit kung anong klaseng lalaki siya. Nadala ata ako masiyado sa mga panunuyo niya sa akin. How stupid of me!
I gripped the pen in my hand. Kanina pa ako wala sa mood. I left early to avoid him. I don't think it'll be good if we talk. Baka kung ano pa ang masabi ko. Sa isa sa mga guest rooms pa ako naligo at nag-ayos para lang hindi siya magising. I also turned my phone off to avoid his calls and texts.
That single text message was enough to throw me in a foul mood. Wala akong kahit sinong kinausap ngayong araw sa buong klase. Pakiramdam ko ay kaunting kalabit lang sakin ay maninigaw na ako.
"Farida!"
Kalalabas ko pa lang ng classroom ay si Adam na agad ang nakita ko. Iniwas ko ang pagbuntong hininga. Pilit akong ngumiti sa kaniya.
"Hi. You're alone?"
He nodded, smiling boyishly. "The others are busy with the approaching exam. How are you? Ilang araw ka na naming hindi nakakasama. Sabi ni Rei busy ka raw."
"Ah yes. May inasikaso lang sa bahay. Where's Rei? Busy din ba siya?" I looked around.
"She said she needed to study, too. I heard her brother say she'd be grounded if she failed the exam." Tumawa si Adam.
I pouted. He looked so handsome and boyish with his long hair and foreign features. He's very popular here. Hindi lang dahil sa siya ang pinakaguwapo rito. He's smart but very laid-back. Marami siyang kaibigan at hindi mahirap pakisamahan. He also exudes a comforting vibe. Hindi ka maiilang sa kaniya.
Unlike Angelus, he's mestizo and very boyish. His style is different, too. It seems like his style is inspired by the metro. I heard he grew up in a city; kaya siguro ganito siya manamit.
"So... you're here because?" I raised a brow.
Ngumisi siya. "I don't have anyone today. I'm bored, and everyone declined me."
