Prologue

- Yrainne Aisha Zavalde -

I inhaled the air of my country, the Philippines. It's been years since I left this country with a shattered heart.

My stilettos were clicking against the floor as I walk towards my BMW. All eyes were on me but I didn't mind.

My driver assisted me. Habang pinapasok niya ang mga luggages ko sa sasakyan, ay sumakay na ako. Upon reaching EDSA, the traffic was unbearable kaya I busied myself scrolling on my insta account. Then a notification popped out, "GinoLopez started following you." I rolled my eyes! The nerve of this guy! He really made an account huh!? Out of curiosity I clicked his profile. "My love for you never faded even after you left." was written on his bio. I smug my face after seeing it. I admit he became more handsome after those years, I can see some of my stolen photos here and our wedding photo too. Bitterness spread all through out my system.

How could he? How could he act like this? Like he never betrayed me at all? Like he never cheated! "Manong just drop me in any coffee shop." I told him and he obliged. After a few minutes ay nakarating na kami sa isang mall na pag-aari ng mga Lopez. Bakit dito niya pa ako dinala? Kahit medyo nainis ako ay bumaba narin ako. I went inside the Starbucks, some guys were eyeing on me.

I ordered cake and a vanilla cream frappuccino. Naupo ako sa pinakagilid while waiting for my order, malapit ako sa glass window and I can see the garden outside the Starbucks. When my order came, may napansin akong lalaki na nag abot ng tissue sa waiter at sinama sa order ko.

He looks fine but I'm literally not interested! Yes, tama nga ang hinala ko dahil pagkaabot nang waiter sa order ko ay napatingin ako sa tissue na may number ng lalaki. Kinuha ko ang tissue and the boy smiling in my peripheral view. I saw his smile faded nang makita niya na I used the tissue to wipe my hand after I sprayed alcohol. I sipped my frappe at mabilisan na kinain ang cake and then went out.

Pumasok ako sa isang salon and decided to go blonde. I unexpectedly saw the bitch who ruined everything- my perfect family and life! She has this smile plastered in her angelic face which pissed me off! Hindi ko na lang pinansin as someone assisted me. I am seated at the opposite chair. I'm sure hindi pa niya ako napapansin. Who would? Baka kinalimutan na nga ako ng babaeng 'to, after 3 years in abroad siguro napakasaya niya sa piling ng asawa ko. Halos sabay din kaming natapos. On my way out, nakasalubong ko si Gino. Napatigil ito at napatitig sa akin, "Yisha..." I can see that he was stunned upon seeing me back. " I faked a smile at lumabas na ng tuluyan sa salon, leaving him dumbfounded.
