Umupo si Greg sa swivel chair nito at pinagmasdan siya. "Okay. Bibilhin ko ang Oregon Building under your name pag hindi mo sasabihin sa media ang nangyari kanina." "Okay." Nakangiting sagot niya. "And we will have divorce once nasayo na talaga ang Oregon Building. Yan lang naman talaga ang dahilan kung bakit mo ako bina-black mail diba?" "Exactly. After 6 months ay magpapafile tayo ng divorse." Nahulaan kaagad nito ang plano niya. Suma cum Laude nga diba? "With your attitude-" "And your attitude ay tiyak na matatanggap na nila na pinilit nating makilala at mapakisamahan ang isa't isa. Ngunit hindi lang talaga tayo nagkakasundo." Ngumiti ulit siya. "Right. We will have our freedom after six months. But..." "But what?" Nakakunot-noong tanong niya. "I'll agree with all of this pero syempre gusto kong may mapakinabangan din out of this marriage." Ngumiti ito. Gosh. "And ano naman iyon?" "Great hot sex." Walang ka gatol-gatol na sagot nito. Wait, whut? (FILIPINO STORY)
