"Sabing ayoko nga! Bakit niyo ba pinagpipilitan?" Naiinis kong saad sa pesteng matanda sa harap ko.
This is frustrating.
"Wala kang magagawa sa desisyon ko! Pinagusqpannna natin ito dati pa diba?"
"Oo pinagusapan na natin pero di ako pumayad!"
"Pumayad ka man o hindi, kukunin mo pa rin itong posisyonna ito! Ikaw ang hahawak ng Clemonte enterprises ngayon at wala ka nang magagawa pa kung hindi tanggapin ito!" Saad ng 'pinakamamahal kong lolo' bago lumabas ng silid.
Wow. Just wow.
"Oh by the way, get ready for the meeting tomorrow. Ipakikilala na kita sa mga clients and partners natin so that it will be easy for you once you handle this position."
Fck this beautiful life.
Sa sobrang inis ko sinuntok ko ang pader sa aking gilid na naging dahilan ng pag-agos ng dugo sa aking daliri.
"Curse that!"
Masama na ba ngayon na sundan ang gusto mo mangyari sa buhay mo? Masama na bang sundan ngayon ang pangarap na gusto mong makamtan? Lagi na lang ba may hahadlang sa gusto kong mangyari sa buhay ko? Maiipit na lang ba ako sa gusto nila?

"Hindi po ito ang gusto ko." Kinakabahang saad ko sa taong nakatayo sa aking harap.
"Anong sabi mo?" Agad niya akong nilapitan at sinampal na naging dahilan ng pagkabagsak ko sa sahig.
"Wala ka nang magagawa! Ito ang kukunin mong kurso!"
"Bakit niyo ba pinagpipilitan?"
"Aba sumasagot ka pa ha!" Saad niya sabay hablot niya sa buhok ko na naging dahilan ng pagtayo ko.
"Aray masakit!"
"Mas masakit pa diyan ang matatanggap mo kapag tumanggi ka sa gusto ko. Sa ayaw at sa gusto mo kakalabanin mo sila!" Nanggigigil niyang saad sabay tulak sa aking mukha.
Sumalampak ako ng upo sa sahig at wala nang nagawa kundi ilabas lahat ng luha na kanina ko pa pinipigilan hanggang sa humagulgol ako.
Hindi nama ito ang gusto ko ah! Lagi na lang ba silang hahadlang sa buhay ko? Maiipit na lang ba ako sa gusto nila?

He was seated at the head of the table, his laptop open in front of him, no doubt already prepared to ask us a bunch of invasive questions. But he wasn't looking at the screen. He was looking at me. Stopping in my tracks, I looked back, wondering if I had spilt something on my clothes. A quick look down showed that nothing was out of the ordinary. So I looked up again to find his meditative gaze fixed on me, sizing me up. Now my gaze narrowed. "What?" I asked, trying to bring politeness into my accusatory tone. He seemed to notice that my effort had failed because he raised an eyebrow, his head tilting to the side as he appraised me. "You're the head of marketing for FMCG?" he finally asked, his rich voice giving me a picture of a high bank balance. Some people just have the voice that feels like a fat cheque. He has that voice in a low, deep register. "Yes," I replied, trying to not get distracted by his intimidating presence. "What are you; 12?" he asked, in a quietly scoffing tone.

I'm sure you know it's bad for your health," I continued, as I checked his shopping out. "I don't think nagging your customers is part of your duties as a part-time convenience store worker," said customer quipped with a hint of impatience. I simply smiled, deciding to pull out a card from beneath the counter for special customers like him. "Here's a quit smoking hotline, sir.

You V.S. Mafia
[COMPLETED] "Shoot," Joey mumbles, letting out a string of profanities under his breath. We turn around to find a group of men, all with guns, standing where we just came from, and they look pissed... probably because they were forced to run through this tunnel after us. "Thought you could get away, didn't you?" The man who I saw before asks. His husky voice booms in the hollow tunnel, reverberating off of the dirt walls. His voice sounds familiar, and a realization strikes me. It sounds like the man from my dream. I remember him holding a gun and wearing a blue suit, smiling evilly at me. "Leave us alone," Joey says, sounding dangerous and snapping me out of my thoughts. The levity of the situation hits-we need to get out of here. I look around for a route of escape and thankfully I see a light, literally, at the end of the second tunnel. I let out a small, almost inaudible, gasp and nudge Joey. He looks at me and I subtly gesture with my head to the second tunnel. He glances at it and immediately we are on the same page. His jaw sets and he looks at the group. The man speaks up again, chuckling darkly-a sound I will never forget and will be permanently etched into my brain, "You can thank your father for starting this mess." -------------------------- Liza was a normal teenaged girl, living the average life that an eighteen year old girl should be living.

His Venomous Love
R18 | SPG Sa isang ordinaryong gabi, nagulat si Dr. Seraphina "Sera" Velasquez nang makita ang isang lalaking duguan sa lobby ng kanyang apartment. Kahit may takot, hindi niya nagawang talikuran ito. Her instincts as a doctor kicked in-kailangan niyang tumulong. Hindi niya alam na ang lalaking ito ay si Axel De Silva, isang notorious na Mafia Boss. He was escaping a failed assassination attempt. Weak and barely conscious, he found solace in her gentle touch-something he hadn't felt in years. Sera thought she was just helping an ordinary man, pero unti-unti niyang napapansin ang mga kakaibang kilos ni Axel-ang matatalim niyang mata, ang paraan ng kanyang pagsasalita, at ang misteryosong alindog na tila may bahid ng panganib. Axel, on the other hand, found himself drawn to her kindness-something he had long deemed as a weakness in his world of blood and violence. But love isn't supposed to bloom between light and darkness. Axel knew it was dangerous to let her in, but the more he tried to stay away, the deeper she got entangled in his deadly world. Hanggang sa dumating ang araw na malaman ni Sera kung sino talaga siya-at kung bakit siya duguan noong gabing tinulungan niya ito. Now, she must decide: walk away from the man whose love is as venomous as his world, or risk everything for a love that could cost her life?
