"Do you smoke?" natatawang tanong niya sa akin kahit alam niyang hindi. Pagilid ko siyang sinulyapan nang ilabas niya ang sigarilyo at mabilis na sinindihan sa harapan ko. Sinasadya niya ito para ipakita sa akin na walang kahit sino ang magbabawal sa kanya sa school na ito. Agaw pansin ang mga biloy niya na lumabas nang hithitin niya ang dulo ng sigarilyo. Kahit nagsasalita, kumakain, o kahit kaonting kibot lang ng labi niya'y lumalabas iyon. Gamit ang mga daliri'y sinuklay niya papunta sa likod ang pawisan niyang buhok. Ang manipis na gintong kwintas niya'y kumikinang sa tirik na araw. Nagbuntong hininga ako at pilit pinapakalma ang sarili. I don't like people breaking school rules that's why I hate him.

If you want to taste, I can give you some," tukoy niya sa sigarilyo na wala akong balak tikman. Warning: Read At Your Own Risk! EXPLICIT AND MATURE CONTENT❗❗❗ Series 7 of 8

Blinded by her first love, she dreamed of living with him forever. But her fantasies were shattered into pieces when she caught him cheating on her on their honeymoon night. After a decade, she had to find him again because of the annulment she neglected to process for the longest time. She wanted to revoke her married status before leaving to France where she was planning to settle for good. However, Lander wouldn't sign the papers so easily. He had too many conditions and demands. She needed to put up with his stubbornness and continuous ego tripping. Never in her wildest dream that the period she amounted to erase her bad past would actually result in falling in love to her estranged husband all over again.
