'Dude, Reiz was looking for you. He seems mad, Stern.'

'What did he say Klein?'

'Nothing. He was just asking for you. Are you two having some misunderstanding lately, dude?'

Paano ko ba sasabihin sa society ang situation ko right now? How can I tell them especially to Reiz that I am hitting on his sister? I know that once he knew na may ginagawa ako sa kapatid niya, not only will I ruin his trust on me and our friendship but my membership with the society will also be at risk. Mahigpit na binilin sa amin noon pa ni Smith na walang taluhan sa mga siblings ng mga members of the society, that we shouldn't engage ourselves sa mga kapatid ng sino man na member ng samahan ng High and Untouchable Gods Society. Alam ko naman yun, I know it by heart and I also value Smith's words because he is like a big brother to me. Ayoko rin na magkaroon ako ng any problems or arguements with the other members because they are like brothers to me. All these years na nasa society ako, I've treated each and everyone with high respect at never akong gumawa ng bagay na ikakasira ng trust nila sa'kin. I was the most silent one in the group but I still blend with them. Tahimik ako pero marunong akong makisama sa bawat members. Tama nga ang kasabihan na nasa loob ang kulo ng taong tahimik because that phrase is very much appropriate to me.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Apollo Mark Lopez Stern. At the peak of my year which is 34. Nag-34 ako last week. An only child of Marcus Stern and Apple Gail Lopez Stern, who were in the Business Industry during their time. That's right, solo na lang ako sa buhay. My parents died on the same time. They were victims of a plane crash last 10 years ago which happened nang papunta sila noon in Paris, France. I was 24 years old that time at kasalukuyan na tinatayo ang Stern Powers in Bataan which was my first farm ever. I have relatives on both sides but I am not close to any of them.

I stand 6 feet tall with hazel colored eyes and a slight touch of green, proud narrow nose, thick eyebrows, thin lips and chiseled jaws. I have an athletic body frame. Thin waist, broad shoulders, firm abdominal muscles and a powerful back. My origin is British American and Filipino. Dad was a British American while Mom was a Filipina. But I've gotten my features from my Dad.

I've graduated in college with the course of Business Administration, major in Finance. Reading is one of my favorite hobbies and I love to study. That is why aside from being a Business Administration graduate, I've also studied Aeronautical Engineer. Masasabi kong nagagamit ko ang mga pinag-aralan ko because of Stern Powers and AMS Airlinks. I excel on both businesses that I have now. Stern Powers is the leading and award-winning solar power company around the globe. Here in the Philippines, I have a 20 hectares farm of solar power in Ilocos Norte and another 20 hectares in Bataan. Meron rin akong solar power farm in Texas and in Japan. Ang AMS Airlinks naman or the Apollo Mark Stern Airlinks was established after I've graduated at my second course. It specializes with the construction, manufacturing and diatribution of helicopters and other aircrafts. AMS Airlinks is located in San Francisco California.

I was 28 years old when I've met a businessman who is into stocks and trading. We've met in San Francisco during one of my aircraft expo. Hermes John Klein introduces me to some businessmen who like me have Greek names. Nakilala ko ang tatlo pang business magnates who have dual nationalities just like mine. They are member of a brotherhood named High and Untouchable Gods Society which are into business worldwide. Naging close ako kay Klein than the others but I've treated everyone as brothers nonetheless. Na-enganyo akong sumali sa kanila because that time Stern Powers is into a crisis. Without hesitation and discussions, Poseidon Israel Smith together with Klein and Hades Luke Martin helped me with the money that I needed to save Stern Powers. Aside sa akin na into solar power business and Klein na into stock business and trading, Smith is into seafaring business and has his own resorts worldwide while Martin is into hotels. Si Reiz naman ay malapit sa line ng aircraft business ko, he is into airline business. He owns several airlines not just in the Philippines which became our base, but in different parts of the world. After kong maging member ng samahang HUGS, our last member is the Ammunition Magnate from China na si Ares Timothy Li. All six of us ang bumubuo ng High and Untouchable Gods Society na may layunin na palawakin pa ang sakop ng business namin and to established a much deeper bond among the members.

Yan ang problema ko ngayon. I know deep inside of me na once na malaman ni Reiz ang ginagawa ko sa kapatid niya then that will be the downfall of our friendship. We've sworn an oath sa greatest rule ni Smith na hindi kami kailanman na mali-link sa mga female siblings ng mga members. Kaya alam kong hindi lang ang friendship namin ni Reiz ang at stake here but also my stand as a member of our elite and prestigious group. Wala pa akong nabalitaan na inalis nila sa HUGS dahil sa hindi pagsunod sa rules and regulations ng society pero baka ako ang unang buminyag dun. Pwede akong matanggal sa society which I admit will partly affect my business. Honestly, I am afraid na malaman nila na may ugnayan kami ni Trinity Christensen na kapatid ng HUGS member na si Zeus Genesis Reiz. They have the same mother which made them step-siblings.

'Hey dude! You are spacing out, man!' napatingin ako kay Klein who is currently lighting his cigar. Nandito kami sa isang lounge bar in Greenhills, just the two of us.

'What have you said kanina Klein?' naisuklay ko ang fingers ko through my jet black hair.

'I've said that Reiz is looking for you! But he didn't said why he is searching for you, basta mukha siyang galit dude! You two have some kind of a trouble, man? Galit siya when he ask me your whereabouts.' agad akong napatingin sa katabi ko.

Oh don't tell me please! Huwag muna ngayon, not until I am certain of what I am feeling for his sister.

'Anong sinabi mo kay Reiz, Klein? Have you told him where I can be found?'

Sana hindi. f**k you ka Hermes John Klein kapag sinabi mo kay Reiz kung nasaan ako.

'Yeah I did.' napapikit ako sa narinig ko. Hindi ako nagtatago kay Reiz, No. It's just that, gusto ko siyang harapin once that I'm sure of myself about kay Trinity. 'Dude!' I open my eyes and glance at him. 'What's your problem man?! Napansin ko that recently ay parang may malalim kang iniisip. Was it business problem? Share it to me, dude!'

'No, it's not about my businesses, man.'

'Then what?' I look at him again but this time, I stare straight into his eyes.

'I've messed up man. I've messed up bigtime.'

'What?! What kind of messed up, Stern?!' huminga muna ako ng malalim. If there is someone whom I can be comfortable with, that is Klein. I know that he will understand me.

'Trinity and I are having an affair.' mahina pero malinaw kong pag-confess sa kanya.

'What?! What the f**k dude?! Trinity?! As in The Trinity Christensen?!' he look shocked and disbelieving. I nod my head. 'Damn Stern!!' he quickly downed his liquor. 'What the f**k were you thinking, dude?! That is Reiz' f*****g sister, man! That is Trinity Christensen for Christ sake dude! Kapatid siya ni Zeus Genesis Reiz! What were you thinking?! Kaya ka siguro hinahanap ni Reiz, he probably knew by now kung ano ba talaga ang meron sa inyo ng kapatid niya!' I didn't say a word, inubos ko ang laman ng rock glass ko then ay nagsalin ulit ng panibago. 'I bet Reiz already knew about it, dude! Kaya siguro he was furious last night!'

'At sinabi mong magkikita tayo ngayon dito?' I glance at him again. 'I wouldn't be surprise if he came barging here later.' I chuckled but it was hollow.

'Aba malay ko ba! You didn't told me anything about her, dude!'

Bago pa ako makasagot ay bumagsak na ako sa floor ng VIP Room. I get a hold of my jaw na tinamaan ng isang malakas na suntok. Pag-angat ko ng tingin, I saw a different Reiz. He is raging in fury na hawak-hawak ngayon nila Smith and Klein.

'f**k YOU STERN!! I'LL KILL YOU MOTHERFUCKER!!!!'

'That's enough Reiz!!' Smith castigated Reiz as he held tight of his left arm.

'GAGO KA!! KAPATID KO PA ANG GINAGO MO!!! WHAT'S WITH YOU?! HUH STERN?!! WAS SHE PART OF YOUR COLLECTIONS, YOU PIECE OF s**t!!' kita ko ang kagustuhan niyang makakawala sa hawak nila Smith and Klein sa kanya. Napapikit ako at napailing.

Ito na ang kinakatakutan kong mangyari, nangyari na. I know this time will come. Alam kong darating ang time kung saan magkakaharap kami ng ganito ni Reiz. The moment pa lamang that I've touched Trinity, alam ko ng this moment will come. Pero hindi ko pa pwedeng sabihin sa kanya kung ano ang nararamdaman ko for his sister dahil ako mismo ay naguguluhan parin right now. I don't know if what I feel for her is for real or if it's just lust. Because Trinity Christensen is so damn attractive and so deliciously sexy and hot.

'Now is not the right time to confront him Reiz! Nakainom ka rin!! Baka saan pa mapunta ito!! Let's go!' Smith tried to drag Reiz but he is rooted to where he is standing.

'I'M GOING TO TEACH THIS ASSHOLE SOME VALUES SMITH!! ANG DAMING BUTAS NA PWEDE MONG PASUKAN, PATI KAPATID KONG ENGAGED NA SA FIANCÉ NIYA TINIRA MO PANG GAGO KA!!!' hindi ako nagsalita, I stand up saka pinunasan ang dugo sa gilid ng lips ko. 'ANO?!! CUT YOUR TONGUE ASSHOLE?!! I'VE TREATED YOU LIKE A BROTHER STERN!! AND THIS IS HOW YOU'LL REPAY ME?!!! IS THIS WHAT YOU'LL GIVE IN RETURN?!!! HUH?!! THAT'S MY f*****g SISTER YOU'RE BEDDING!!!! DAMN YOU!!! DAMN YOU STERN!!' I feel guilty. Seeing my friend now na umiiyak because of what I've done, breaks my heart badly.

'I'm sorry man.'

'SORRY?!! TANGINA KA!!! TRINITY IS PREGNANT YOU f*****g ASSHOLE!! THEN YOU'LL TELL ME THAT YOU ARE f*****g SORRY?!!! f**k YOU STERN!!!' napatulala ako sa narinig ko. Could it be that she is carrying my offspring? She wasn't a virgin when I have her pero was it possible? Was it possible that the child is really mine? Biglang nag-iba ang pakiramdam ko even the beating of my heart. I knew that she is carrying my child. I knew it. 'DON'T EVEN THINK ASSHOLE!!! DAHIL HINDING-HINDI MO MAKIKITA AT MAKILALA ANG PAMANGKIN KO!!! THE BABY WON'T EVER KNOW ABOUT HIS GODDAMN TRAITOR FATHER!!!'

'Tangina naman Reiz! That's my child! You can't do this to me! I am the child's father! I have all the right to see and be with the baby!'

'OO TANGINA MO RIN!!! MARK MY WORD YOU f*****g ASSHOLE!! EVEN THE BABY'S FINGER AY HINDING-HINDI MO MAKIKITA!!! AND GO NEAR MY SISTER AGAIN, I PROMISE YOU... I'LL BRING YOU DOWN!! I'LL BURY YOU 6 FEET UNDER KAPAG NALAMAN KONG LUMAPIT KA PA KAY TRINITY!!!'

'Reiz!!' I called for him but he didn't hear me out. Nang umalis si Reiz together with Smith, I don't know what to do. I was left dumbfounded, numb and confused. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang uunahin kong gawin. I don't know if I'll go to San Francisco and talk to Trinity. Wala. Blank. I was left in a state of mental block but my heart is racing rapidly.

'f**k!!!' I grab my rock glass and throw it at the wall, smashing it into pieces.

'Easy dude! Kalma!' Klein pat my shoulder.

'I need to talk to Trinity man. I have to talk to her. I must see her.' napasabunot ako sa buhok ko.

If she is really pregnant, then she is carrying my child. Dahil I know that she is serious sa akin when she told me na may nangyari sa kanila ng boyfriend niya but he used protections. I really have to talk to her. Kailangan namin mag-usap. I need to be enlightened and I have to convince her to back out sa kasal niya with her fiancé. Kailangan ko siyang makumbinse na huwag ng magpakasal pa.

'Babantayan pa lalo ngayon ni Reiz si Trinity, dude! He won't make it easy for you, Stern. We knew how much he loves his sister. Dadaan ka sa impierno before you can get to talk to her!'

Paulit-ulit na pumapasok sa isip ko ang natuklasan ko. I'll be a father soon. Trinity is pregnant and she is carrying my child. If Reiz was so sure and so mad sa akin about Trinity being pregnant, then I must really be the father.

Oh God! Give me strength to surpass Reiz's wrath. Give me knowledge so I will know what to do. Guide me to make the right choice. Help me on this one God, help me please.
