"Ayoko na nga. Ayoko na! I fucking quit! Ano pa bang gusto niyo?! What?! I can't do th--Putangina naman, wag niyo--Ah! Shit."
Napamulat ako nang dahil sa galit na boses ni Cassion. Kunot na kunot ang noo niya habang nakatitig sa phone niya.
"Morning." I whispered. Agad siyang napatingin sa akin, his face soften nang makita niya ako saka siya lumapit sa akin.
"Good morning, my queen." He said, flashing a genuine smile.
"Sino yung kausap mo sa phone?" Tanong ko.
"Wala yun." He looked away. I know he was hiding something from me but I couldn't prevent myself from trusting him even more.
"Are you sure?" I asked caressing his cheeks.
He looked at me, softly piercing me through his eyes, bumuntong hininga siya, "Kahit anong mangyari, please don't leave me, Stasia."
"Don't make me leave then." I said softly bago ako dahan-dahang bumangon ng kama.
"Maayos na ba ang pakiramdam mo?"
"I seemed to be very tired. But I can manage." Utas ko. Inalalayan niya ako sa pagtayo.
Nang marating kami sa dining area ay mukhang mga lantang gulay ang mga protectors ko. I swear, I would not let them drink all night, again.
Good thing, Cassion and Kuya Popo knows how to cook kaya naman nagkaroon kami ng maayos-ayos na breakfast.
After the breakfast, we decided to go on a tour around Palawan.
"I swear to God, that monkey looks a lot like you!" I laughed as I teased Cassion habang buhat buhat niya yung unggoy na pagala-gala sa daan at pinapakain ito ng saging.
Nilabas ko ang phone ko at kinuhanan si Cassion with his little look-a-like, "You two are so adorable. Pakasal na kayo please." I laughed so hard as Cassion scowled at me.
"Come on. Let's take a groufie with your beloved wife." I teased as I took a picture of us. Binaba niya na yung monkey so it could free itself, I ran as Cassion started chasing for me.
"You need a punishment, baby queen." He shouted grinning.
I stuck my tongue on him and ran faster kaso as if on cue, my heartbeat begun to raise and my breathings became heavy. Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that damn poison.
Napahinto ako at napahawak sa chest ko, "Fuck this poison, it's preventing me to fucking be happy once in awhile."
Lumapit agad sa akin si Cassion at binigyan ako ng inhaler, "Too much running for today, Stasia."
I pouted, "This is seriously unfair."
Umayos ako ng tayo habang ang kamay niya naman ay pumadausdos sa bewang ko, "Life's unfair but we need to deal with it. Gusto mo ng buko shake?"
"I would love to." I answered saka kami pumunta sa tindahan ng shakes dito. Hunter and the others was just around, spying us to know if we were okay or not.
Cassion held my waist saka ako binuhat para makaupo ako sa isang medyo mataas na upuan. Imbis na umupo siya sa tabi ko'y nanatili lang siya sa aking harapan na nakahawak padin sa bewang ko.
Hindi ko alam kung bakit sobrang lalim ng titig niya sa akin, pawang may gusto siyang sabihin na hindi niya masabi. Dahan-dahan kong hinaplos ang pisngi niya, "May problema ba, Cassion?"
"I...I want to tell y-you something, babe." He whispered huskily.
I shoved the excess hair on his forehead, "Ano yun?"
Hindi ko alam kung bakit parang... sa bawat pagtitig ko sa mga mata niya, feeling ko ay mahuhulog ako.
God, Stasia. You're just playing with him. No serious feelings. Game lang. Game. Stop yourself!
Does the poison make my heart weak too?
"Cassion, ano yun?" Tanong ko nang hindi pa din siya sumasagot. Bumuntong hininga siya, "Now is not the right time to tell you that. I'm sorry."
Tumango lang ako, until I asked suddenly, "Seryoso ka ba sa...akin?"
Nanlaki ang mata niya sa tanong ko, I think he do not expect that to come out from my mouth.
He smiled genuinely at me, "Do you trust me?"
I nodded, even when I should not trust him, right? I shouldn't be trusting anyone. I shouldn't.
He sighed heavily, "I'm serious."
With that, my heart beats goes on a flat line then suddenly beats so freakin' fast like I'm going yo die of a heart attack.
"Seryoso akong, mahal kita. Seryoso akong gusto kong makasama ka ng panghabang buhay. Seryoso ako sa'yo. At seryoso din akong mababaliw ako pag nawala ka sa buhay ko."
Wala akong ibang nagawa kundi ang tumingin sa kanya. That was the sweetest thing I ever heard in my entire life.
"You love Olivia." I stated.
"I loved her. I love you." He said giving my a slight kiss on my forehead.
"Okay." Is the only thing I could say. I couldn't say the words back necause I still need to clarify my feelings.
The heartless queen don't believe in love because she's heartless. But now that she found the man who got hold of her heart, is she ready to believe and fall in love again?
"Stasia." He whispered.
"Hmm?" I hummed as I put my arms around his neck.
He pressed his lips on mine before he said the words I never imagined to come from him, "Let's get married."
