Secrets and Regrets

THIS STORY IS WRITTEN IN TAGLISH.

At what expense could you do for someone that you love?

Meeting Miguel Escudero was like having a partner in crime for Marga. They spent almost half of their time in their relationship doing things intimately. She believed that maybe, somehow, her worth depends on what her body could do to satisfy the man that she thought loved her truly.

Hindi naman manhid si Marga, alam niyang katawan lang din ang habol sa kaniya ni Miguel, pero gusto niya rin ang oras na mayroon sila. Kaya siguro natiis niya 'yon sa loob ng tatlong buwan.

Not until Lui de Chavez came to the picture and showed up. Hindi bilang mang-aagaw, kundi bilang isang tao na puwedeng maging pahinga ni Marga sa nakakapagod na mundo.

After learning a lot about Lui, Marga realized that love could mean something more other than having sex at ten in the evening, and making out before her classes. Lui made her feel the refreshment that she needs.

Somehow, amidst the banters and chaos around them, they finally learned how to tame each other. But until when could Lui put up with Marga when her life hides a lot of things?

Things that were bound to be just secrets, not until they became their regrets.
