The Sealed Promise

Chapter 24

Days passed and it still hurts.

Masakit pa rin sa'kin ang sinabi niya.

They're right.

Words are more painful than physical one.

But I miss him.

Kahit masakit yung sinabi niya sa'kin I couldn't deny that I really miss him.

Makalipas ang ilang araw ay naisip ko ring baka pagod lang talaga siya kaya niya nasabi yun. Maybe it's because of his anger and he didn't control his temper.

But days passed, I didn't receive any texts and calls from him. Knowing George, he should be apologizing from what he have done to me or even insist go see me. Tadtad na sana ng mga texts at messages ang phone ko ngunit bakit wala?

"Hindi pa rin ba kayo nagkakausap?"

I heavily sigh. "Hindi pa."

Nasa bahay ako ngayon at kausap si Klare sa phone.

"Dzae, it's four days ago. Siguro naman pwede na kayong mag-usap diba?" she said. "It's not healthy for your relationship Belley."

I can see the concern in her eyes.

"Alam mo namang marami na akong experiences regarding relationships, right?"

I nodded.

"I won't mention the name. Nag-away kami nun then I waited for him to coax me and just like what you're doing right now naghintay akong suyuin niya."

"What happened next?"

"Ayun nademonyo siya," sabi niya at natawa. "We ended up."

"E-End?"

"Yeah, gago rin naman yun kasi," sabi niya. "That's why you two need to talk 'cause I'm warning you Belley, it really feels good to be in love but you should always remember that there's over in lover, hm?"

ミ●﹏☉ミ

Dahil sa narining ko sa kanya, mabilis akong tumayo at kinuha ang jacket at sinuot.

I don't want an end so we need to talk.

Pupuntahan ko si George sa kanyang tnatrabahuang law firm.

Lumabas ako sa kwarto at madaling bumaba.

Naabutan ko si Tita na nakabihis at parang may pupuntahan.

"Oh Belley, akala ko bumalik ka na sa condo niyo? May nasabi ba si George sa'yo?"

Oo Tita. Masakit yung nasabi niya pero ayaw kong magkahiwalay kami dahil lang sa pagtatampong ito.

"Kumain ka na ba?"

I busy fixing my shoes while she's waiting for a reply.

"Hindi na Ta. May pupuntahan ako."

"Aw cge. Kung makauwi ka dito ngayon, ikaw na magluto ha? Pupunta pa akong korte."

Ha?

Korte?

Magtatanong pa sana ako ngunit naka-alis na siya.

┐( ∵ )┌

"YVES LAW FIRM," basa ko sa nakasulat sa building.

Nandito ako ngayon sa harap ng pinagtatrabahuan ni George. Isang di gaanong mataas na building at may mga naka-suit at formal attires na mga taong naglabas-pasok dito. Halatang mga professional ang mga tao dito.

I take a deep breath and steps inside.

I hope he's here so we can fix this problem.
 
Dumiretso ako sa isang information desk.
