This is my first novel about boys love. I tried my best to make this work and i hope that you guys like it as much as I love it. I challenge myself to wrote boys love novel for I want to understand how homosexual realationship works. I watch several movies to get some inspirations about it. I am just a typical girl wanting to write a novel to express my feelings and some of my experiences. I was inspired to wrote a novel because one day I was the happiest woman but then I was the saddest. I thought sharing my experience will give some insights to people or to teens about relationships that they wanted to conquer. Sa Cebu ako nagkaroon ng malay at namulat sa realidad that love exist but love makes you happy and at the same time it makes you sacrifice everything.

Hi! My name is Gene Type Yap. I was born with just an ordinary spoon in a little town called Nozomi, which means hope in Japanese. Our country was colonized by Japanese so that’s how our province’s name started. Star Haye Yap is my sister’s name. She was still in her studies. She took up BS Psychology. She’s in her forth year now.

My family is just an ordinary family I must say. My dad is a business man and my mom is a private school teacher. Dad, Crizostomo, owns a little share because of his hard work in a huge company. The Skyler Group of companies. This company is a bigtime distributor of high class jewelries which was exported to other part of the world. It was owned by the late John Jay Chu. Si Mr.Chu na siguro ang pinakamabait na taong nakilala ko. He is a man of few words pero yung mga gawa nya ang nag susumigaw. I heard it was under new management, but I’m not sure. A certain Skyler Tharn Chu. A son of Mr. Chu perhaps, cause the name of the company speaks for itself. Enough about them. Let’s talk about me, I graduated culinary arts in a private college because of the scholarship I acquired in my dad’s company. They help those who are in need so no wonder why this company booms a lot. Up to this day they still distributed jewelries but they expanded on making furnitures, such as glass pots, ceramic sculptures, etc.

Now, mayroon na akong isang restaurant dito sa amin tapos may dalawang branch narin akong napatayo sa iba pang lugar. I am happy of what I’ve become. Every event ng kompanya nila daddy, I was their top pick. I don’t know, nasarapan lang siguro ang may ari kasi everytime, when I say everytime, I mean it kasi halos nalang kahit pa nga burol ng relatives nila I was the one who do all the cooking kahit di na dapat ako ang gagawa non kasi my mga tauhan ako. Oh! Did I mention I have a girlfriend Taylor Gomez. She is a top model in Milan. But she had a lot of project here in the Philippines so she can fly her way back and forth. We’ve been together for almost a year but no one knows my relationship with her except for her manager and my sister Star. Ayaw kasi niyang malaman ng mga fans niya na she’s dating a mere chef. Ewan ko ba kung bakit minahal ko siya. Malaki ang naitulong ni Taylor sa akin. She introduced me to a renowned chef in Hollywood, that meeting with a famous person is my key to enter this industry. She’s in France now doing some photoshoot for the cover of the magazine.

(Ring, ring, ring.)

He looked at the phone register to know who’s calling him. It’s just a number so he answered it.

“Hello? This is Gene speaking!”

“Hi! This is from Skyler GOC. Is your father there? With you?” sagot ng nasa kabilang linya.

“No! I’m here at the grocery store to pick something for the resto. Is there a problem?”

“No not really, I am just wondering where he could be at…….. oh he’s here. Thanks again.”

“No worries!”

Akala ko talaga kung sino. Bakit ba nalate si papa eh di na man sya ganon. He’s always a man of time kasi naman everytime may event kaming pamilya na dadaluhan he always pushes us to hurry.

Last thing I put on the cart are the carrots and lettuce. I hurried back to the counter. It’s still early for me but I want to unwind first. Gusto kong uminom ng kape so after I put all the groceries down sa sasakyan. Pumunta ako sa nearest Starbucks shop. I ordered a café latte frappuccino, my favorite. Binilhan ko na rin si Star ng kanya, knowing her she would give me an earful kung di ko sya bibigyan, I ordered espresso café for her and a creamer. After getting my order nagpasya akong pumunta sa bahay muna para mabigay kay Star yung kape nya.

Naabutan ko si Star doing some typing on her laptop.

“Baby girl! Here’s your coffee. I know you badly need it.”

“Thanks bro! You really know me.” Sabi niya sakin.

Mabulaklak talaga ang bibig nang batang to. Even though she’s younger than me for just two years ay baby sister ang turing ko for she’s my one and only sister.

(Ring…ring…ring..)

Gosh another phone call. Ano ba tong cellphone ko call center?

He answered it anyway.

“Hello!”

“Hi, babe!”

Tiningnan niya ulit ang pangalan sa phone niya. The person calling him now is Taylor.

“Oh! ‘Bat ka napatawag?”

“Well, I’m good and well. Thanks for asking.”

“Sorry, I’m just tired. So, how was your work?”

“Okay naman. I just want to hear your voice.”

“Are coming home this weekend? It’s mama’s birthday.”

“Ohh! Next week napala yun? Sorry babe, tumawag ako to let you know that I will be extending my stay here for a month. We have a new project coming and we still have a lot of things to do.”

Bumuntong hininga sya. As expected of here so called girlfriend. Wala itong time sa kanya and his family. Kahit di alam ng mga ito ang tunay na relasyon nila ay naghahangad parin itong makasalo siya kasi idol ito ng mama niya. My mom was a model once when she was in her twenties. Kaya nang malaman nito na kilala ko si Taylor ay agad itong nag sabi na gusto niyang ma meet ito but because of her hectic schedule di matuloy tuloy ang dinner na matagal na niyang pinaghandaan. Parati nalang nadismaya ang mama nuya kaya everytime na birthday nito talagang inaaya ko si Taylor na dumalo. My mom is just a simple woman kaya every birthday she has she wants to spend it with us, her family.

“As expected! But it’s fine, I’ll just make an alibi just like every other year.”

“Babe naman eh, you know how busy I am.”

“I know kaya nga I want to understand your job as well as your career. O, sya sige I’ll go ahead. I have a full pack reservation tonight. Have a good day!”

Binaba ko na yung telepono because I know na away lang ang patutunguhan niyon.

“Star, I’m heading to the resto would you like to come?”

“No thanks, kuya! I have tons of things to do.”

I bid my goodbye. Habang nasa daan ay naalala ko ang oras kung saan na meet ko si Taylor.

(Two and a half years ago)

I was driving my motorcycle carefully when someone bump me. Luckily, walang ganong katinding damage ang napala ko kasi naka full gear ako ng suot. Nang tingnan ko ang kotse na naka bangga sa akin nakita ko ang isang babae na umiiyak.

“Miss, are you alright? May masakit ba sa iyo?”

Tanong ko sa kanya. Umiling sya bilang sagot tapos sinabihan ko syang bumaba muna at uminom ng tubig na dala. She seems in shock kay naiintindihan kong ayaw niyang magsalita.

“Blood! Blood!” she shouted in a scary tone.

“Nasan miss? Nasan ang masakit? Nasan yung dugo na sinasabi mo?”

I asked in panicky voice. Diko alam pano aluin to, even though I have a sister di ko alam pano mag alag akaya naman I don’t know how to calm her down.

“Miss, take a deep breath and then tell me kung okay ka lang ba o may masakit ba sa iyo.”

She took a deep breath just like what I’ve told her. Tapos sabi nya sakin that I have wounds on my head. Hinawakan ko ang noo ko at doon ko nalaman that I have a cut in my forehead at mukhang malalim. Kaya pala parang nahihilo ako.

“Okay lang ako.” Sa wakas ay sabi nito.

“I’ll take you to the hospital. The car has only a scratch and you need to be treated immiiately.” Dagdag pa niya.

Tumango ako to give my answer kasi talagang nahilo na ako. Pagkarating namin sa bayan ay nakita ko na inasikaso nila agad yung babae. Tapos ibang doktor din ang nag asikaso sa akin. After several minutes, natapos naring tahiin ang sugat sa noo ko ay inilipat nila ako sa ward for further observation daw.
