“BAKIT hindi ka kumikibo? May nagawa ba ako? Please tell me.” Malambing na tanong ni Cyril sa asawa.
Hindi na kasi ito kumibo simula ng tanungin nito kung anong nagyari sa kanila ni Lucas.
“Hindi kasi ako naniniwala na walang nagyari sa inyong dalawa ni Alex. Kilala kita, Cy.”
Napakamot na lang ng batok si Cyril. Alam talaga ng asawa kung anong karakas niya. At bilang mabuting asawa dito, hindi dapat siya nagtatago ng sikreto dito.
“We just talk. Nothing fancy.”

I know we’re starting over again This time we’ll love all the pain away Welcome home my lover and friend We are starting over, over again - Starting Over Again, Natalie Cole *** “C-CY! Let’s talk. Please?” A woman’s voice is echoing in the busy, yet quiet, lobby of the Constantino Group of Companies Building. All eyes are at the center of the attraction. A woman was held by 2 woman bodyguards. Nagmamakaawa sa lalakeng kakarating lang. But the man is deaf to the woman’s plea. “Cy, please. I…W-We need to talk.” Her cries are not enough. Ni hindi man lang humarap ang lalakeng pinapakiusapan. He is just standing with his secretary at the elevator’s doors waiting for the express elevator to open. “S-Sir?” Though he is nervous, the male secretary asks his boss. “What?” “S-Si Ms. Vanity po.” The secretary said the obvious. “I know.” Punong puno ng pagtataka ang secretary sa sinagot ng kanyang amo. “C-Cy! I am still the representative of the P-Pangilinan Group of Comp

*** “ANGELA, ANGELO. Kainin niyo na itong mga ice cream niyo. Matutunaw. Sayang.” Kinuha ng mga anak ang ice cream na hawak at masayang tumakbo pabalik sa kanilang mga house helpers na nagpapalipad ng saranggola. They are in a picnic park somewhere in Laguna. Another weekend means family day for their little family. Nasa ilalim sila ng isang mayabong at malaking puno. Like other family and friends here, nakaupo sila sa isang mat. Dala dala ang iba’t-ibang klase ng pagkain. She doesn’t forget her children’s favorite snacks. And of course, her first born aka her husband’s, favorite food. “Here. Kainin mo na.” Abot niya sa chicken sandwich na paborito nito. “Thanks!” And he immediately takes a bite. Naka sandal sila sa katawan ng puno habang masayang pinagmamasdan ang mga anak. Their kids are playing with their bodyguards and house helpers. Another happy memories to cherish. “Ang bilis nilang lumaki.” Malungkot na sabi ni April sa asawa. “Next thing we know, mag papakilala

*** KINAKABAHAN siya. Mas pa kaysa noong kausapin ang biyenan. Hindi niya alam kung nakailang baso na ba siya ng tubig simula ng magising kanina. Kahit si April ang nahahalata ang pagiging agitated niya. “Cy, what’s wrong? Bakit kanina ka pa hindi mapakali?” Tanong nito sa kanya ng makasalubong sa hagdanan ng kanilang bahay. Busy na busy ito sa pag aasikaso sa mga anak. Aalis kasi ulit sila ngayong weekend, and as their family day sinabi niyang pupunta sila sa isang resort sa Batangas. “N-nothing,” Tanggi niya dito. “Oh wait! Baka mamaya may important kang client call at hindi mo sinagot kasi aalis tayo?” Medyo pabalang na tanong nito. April got upset when he did not answer an important meeting call. Medyo nagkagulo ng kaunti. Wala naman masyadong nagyari pero she’s upset a little dahil nadagdagan ang trabaho niya after not answering the call. “No! None. I…I am just excited to see the resort. Gusto ko lang makita first hand if my investment doesn’t go to waste.” Pagdadah

I should not have done that!” He is in a state of panic right now. When the coordinator said that April is gone, biglang nag blanko ang isip niya. And then something hit him. After he recovered he immidiately called Kyle. The real general manager of this hotel resort. Agad naman siya nitong pinuntahan. Hindi pa ito nakakalapit sa kanya ay siya na ang pumunta dito. “Kyle! I need all the CCTV footage right now! Bring me to the security room!” “S-Sir, what happen?” “My wife’s missing!” Agad naman siya nitong dinala sa opisina na nagco-control sa CCTVs. They checked every footage that has the recording. Nakita niya sa video ang asawa na lumabas ng kanilang kwarto 5 minutes after he went out. Pumunta ito

Nandoong tatayo ito, o di kaya ay maglalakad at iikot ikot sa loob ng hotel room. Namamawis din ang kanyang mga palad. “Relax, son. Para namang sasabak ka sa gera niyan, you are just getting married.” Pagpapahinahon sa kanya ng ama. He sits on the sofa once again. “I don’t know, dad. This is what they called wedding jitters maybe? Naniniwala naman akong hindi na ako lalayasan ng asawa ko, pero kinakabahan talaga ako. P-Paano kung hindi magustuhan ni April yung ayos ng venue? Yung yari ng mga gown ng a-” “S-Son! Stop. Just stop.” Natatawang umiiling ito habang tinatapik siya sa paypay. “You better relax, Cyril. Ayaw mo naman sigurong mahimatay sa mismong kasal mo?

April anong balita sa ating mga atleta sa SEA Games?” Lumabas ang animated gap ng news program, pagkatapos ay ang muka ni April sa screen. She’s wearing a white polo shirt that has the logo of the network and maong pants. Hawak nito ang mikropono na may logo din ng network. Sa paligid nito ay kitang kita ang mga nagsasayang tao. Hawak ang bandera ng Pilipinas at masayang masayang winawagayway ito. “Thank you Ms. Nadeth. At ito nga po, live tayo sa Nimibutr Stadium sa Thailand kung saan ginanap ang championship ng ating Men’s Basketball teaM laban sa koponan ng Thailand. Naging madugo at mahirap ang laban, pero sa huli tayo pa din ang nagwagi! Isang ginto nanaman para sa ating bayan.” Pagkatapos ay pinakita ang video skits kung saan may inserts ng videos ng basketball game ng team Philippines versus Thailand na kanyang vino-voice over live.

Young Hearts PROLOGUE
Kapwa hindi ginusto, pero tadhana na ang nag dikta. Nakulong sa isang relasyong hindi inaasahan. April is a shy, timid and loving girl. Full of dreams and passion to help her family from poverty. Maagang naulila sa ama at tanging ina lamang ang nag-aaruga at kumakayod. At a very young age she already knew her responsibilities as the oldest among her 5 siblings. While Cyril is the exact opposite of her. An irresponsible jerk who always blames others for his own mistakes. Because of his family’s wealth, he doesn’t know the meaning of pain, hunger, and dreams. Isa lang ang gusto niya sa buhay. To be with Vanity, at hindi pa niya nakuha. What is the meaning of life? But fate surprised them with things they never expected. Can Cyril be responsible enough to face the consequences of his action? Is April brave enough to fight for her rightful place? A marriage without love. An unexpected baby along the way. Are their young hearts ready for heartbreak?
