(Seducing Drake Palma Book 2) "Hindi na ako magpapadala sa 'yo, Drake. You're just going to make me fall then smash me into pieces once again." It's been four years since Alys graduated from St. Claire's High. And by now, naka-move-on na siya mula sa first serious relationship niya no'ng high school. She now has a man who treats her like a princess, the man who has helped her pick up the pieces of her broken heart-si Tripp. Her feelings are secure and her life is full once again. Or so she thought. Ano ang gagawin niya ngayong siya naman ang hinahabol ng isang Drake Palma at hinihingan ng isa pang pagkakataon? Pilit iiwasan at tatakbuhan ni Alys si Drake. Pero masusubok ang kanyang tatag kung hanggang kailan niya mapaninindigan ang desisyon niyang to forget and let go of that once in a lifetime epic love.

"Cay, will you look at me?" I turned around and lifted my eyes to look into his. His arms were braced on the counter and he was looking at me sideways. The glow of the light coming from the living room and into the kitchen gave his face an otherworldly impression. I waited for him to continue. He closed his eyes and sighed, "Cay... Just so you know... I wanted to do it. Right there, a while ago. But you know why I couldn't, and why we shouldn't." There was a pain in my chest at his words. But I just gazed at him, unsure of what to say. He was right. It would be a mistake. And no matter how many times my weak heart and frail mind wanted him to kiss me, it would be selfish, not to mention immoral. In the end we would both regret it, and that would hurt the most. © rainthereader 2012 All Rights Reserved

I wrote this for school. The assignment was to write a poem about something unfortunate that is prevalent in the world today. I chose eating disorders. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
