Chapter 28

Zack

I was taken aback by what she had said. It took me some time to let the words sink in.

Pinagseselos? Did I hear her right?

Bakit kailangan nyang gawin yon?

All those things with Andrew na sobrang ikinagalit ko? Nagawa nila yon para lang pagselosin ako? but why?

Then Realization came in...

The truth hurts..

Parang mas masakit pa ang mga salitang lumabas sa kanya kesa sa mga tumamang suntok sa akin ni Andrew.

I judged her cruelly.

Noong nakita kong magkayakap sila ni Andrew, bigla na lang dumilim ang paningin ko. I felt so betrayed, parang nag-flashback sa akin ang mga ginawa ni Marielle many years ago. Para akong hibang na gustong pumatay ng tao.

Napagbalingan ko si Andrew. Gusto kong ibuhos sa kanya lahat ng galit at sakit na nararamdaman ko. Dahil trinaidor nya ako. Dahil inagaw nya sa kin ang pinakamahalagang tao sa buhay ko. Hindi ko akalain na magagawa sa akin ito ng pinaka-pinagkakatiwalaan kong tao!

Yes, I've been neglecting her when I promised that I would take care of her. I haven't done my duty. I thought I was doing her a favor, but no, I was crushing her.

I've been so wrapped up with my own feelings without considering hers.

Hinayaan kong lumapit sa akin si Marielle na naging dahilan ng lahat ng ito.

I thought that it was harmless because I don't feel anything for Marielle anymore, pero hindi ko na-consider na masasaktan pala si Charlie.

I am such a jerk and I disgust myself for being so selfish.

This is  all my fault. And it breaks my heart to realize that I am the source of her tears.

.... "I love you Zack.." she said while crying her heart out...

Parang tumigil ang mundo at na-focus lang ako sa mga salitang nagmula sa kanya.

My God………… Charlie loves me...

The very words that I long to hear.

Those three significant words that I've been waiting for so long...

I thought it will never come...

I thought I will wait forever...
