Hey guys, I just wanted to remind everyone that this story is written for matured readers with an open mind to tackle issues like domestic violence and/or physical or emotional abuse. If you think it's too much for you, please don't continue reading GSFL. You can try a lighter story of mine "Love Me in Brooklyn" which is a romance-teen fic.

I hope you all take care of your mental health.

CHAPTER 25

PIZZA


Tiffany's POV


You could say I was a little disturbed after what happened between me and Gael but what was more shocking is that I was not in rage when I saw him Monday morning.

Just like any other day, he picked me up for work. He was standing beside the car, waiting for me to walk out of the mansion. Tonton and Luis were surprisingly not with him today.


"Mukhang malubha ang naging away niyo ah. Bakit ayaw mo pa siyang lapitan?" tanong ni Awi nang mapagtantong hindi ako excited lumabas ng bahay.


Honestly, I'm not mad at Gael. Our fight was a reflection of my actions. Kasalanan ko na naglihim ako sa kanya at nagsinungaling. Hindi ko nga lang talaga nagustuhan na nasaktan niya ako. But he said it himself, he didn't want that to occur. Nadala lang siya ng galit niya.

I guess I was just afraid to see him because I'm clueless as to what I should say to him. Dapat bang humingi ako ulit ng tawad?


"We're going to be late," Awi added. "If you don't want to face him, you should tell me. Sasabihan ko siyang umuwi na muna at ako na ang magda-drive para sa'yo."

Hindi ko naman pwedeng habang buhay iwasan ang boyfriend ko.


Umiling ako at kinuha na ang bag ko sa gilid. "No, it's fine. Let's go."

Pagkalabas na pagkalabas ko ay naaninag ko agad ang pagtayo ng tuwid ni Gael. His eyes are on me as I walk towards him. Katulad ng nakasanayan ay sumakay agad si Awi sa likuran ng kotse.


I stood in front of Gael in silence. Pansin ko ang pagtitig niya sa palapulsuhan ko. I think he's trying to see my wrist but he couldn't because I decided to wear a long sleeve and a few bangle bracelets today.


"Hi," mahinang sambit niya. "Galit ka pa rin?"

I bit my lower lip and shook my head. Kita ko ang pagaliwalas ng mukha niya ngunit mayroon pa ring halong lungkot at pagaalala sa mga mata niya.

"Pasensya na talaga, Yvonne." He held my hand and squeezed it. "Hindi ko talaga sinasadyang---"

"Gael, wag ngayon." I sighed and avoided his eyes. "Naghihintay si Awi."


Inalis ko ang hawak niya sa kamay ko at sumakay na sa shotgun seat. Ayokong pagusapan ang problema namin sa harapan ng kaibigan ko lalo na't wala siyang alam sa naging away namin. I didn't tell Awi that Gael accidentally hurt me. Hindi ko kinwento dahil natatakot akong mag-overreact siya. This is between me and my boyfriend. It should only involve the two of us.
