Now a published book by Precious Pages Corporation. Available at all Precious Pages branches and other bookstores. "Love can never be forced like love can never be stopped." I'm Althea Avengalista, a waitress slash agent of The Camp. Sa hindi inaasahang pag-atake ng pagiging clumsy ko ay nakabasag ako ng isang napakamahal na vase. Ang masama pa ay pag-aari iyon ng napakaBAIT, napakaUNDERSTANDING at napakaCARING ko na boss na si Craige Lawrence. And what happen next? He made me his slave.

I always feel like I'm floating through life. There was nothing to hold me in one place, there's nothing that has enough weight for me to stay. Still... I wanted to believe that there's something special out there waiting for me. Pero hindi pala ganoong kadali ang lahat. It's just too tiring to struggle and keep my head above the water... to fight the tides trying to pull me down. So for a moment, I stopped fighting... letting the currents take me where it wants me to go. I just didn't expect the next thing life pulled for me. An embodiment of uncertainty. A gamble, an unpredictability. Life gave me a wild card. It's a bittersweet risk. The question is... do I have the winning hand or will I end up holding on to nothing?

A night of mistake turned my life into a series of turmoil. A night when alcohol was mixed with suspicion, pain, and even...love. Mali man o tama. But hope was still breathing life in me knowing that everything is just temporary. Umaasa akong hindi magtatagal na dadating ang araw na isang memorya na lang ang mga naganap na hindi na kailangan balikan pa. But I was wrong. I was wrong that they will remain unchanging just because my heart is still the same as before. Dahil ginusto niya ang puso ko na pag-aari na ng iba habang ang sarili kong kabigkis, sarili kong dugo at laman, ay para bang nais angkinin ang puso ng taong akala ko akin lang.
