Her Greatest Battle (Editing)

Round 18

I turned to my girlfriend and saw the sadness in her eyes.

"Hey what's the matter?" I touched her cheek.

"Kinda feel guilty."

"What? why?"

"Your family know about us and yet you have never even met my father. I'm sorry."

"Ssh it's okay. I'm not rushing things. I understand if you're not ready or your father or what not. I can wait." I smiled.

She smiled too and leaned in for a kiss.

"I love you." she said.

"I love you too. Now, there's no time to be sad because well gonna spend the day together. Let's go."

I helped her up and we walked hand in hand.

I jolted up from the bed.

Panting.

I dreamt about her and our past. This is not good.

I looked at the clock and it's 6am already. I missed my morning jog.

I got up and walked straight outside of my room and went to the kitchen.

A frowning Dom welcomed me.

"Kagigising mo lang?" she asked.

I took the seat at the counter "Yes. Can you make me a coffee?"

Her frowned deepened "You don't drink coffee."

I sighed "I don't know. I just feel like I need it. Please?"

"Okay okay wait there."

"Thanks." I docked my head on the table.

I just woke up yet I'm feeling tired. Feel like all my energy drained out.

"Morning babe." I kissed her cheek.

She smiled and greeted me back.

We were about to walk towards our school when a car stopped right infront of us.

A handsome man in a black suit came out from it.

He seems familiar.

"Pa?"

"Come Rainee. We are going somewhere."

"But we still have classes." she looked at me and then to him.

Her father's gaze fell on me.

I gulped. It was a blank face.

"G-good morning Sir."

"I already talked to your Dean. He'll excuse you from all your classes today. Hurry up." he looked at me before going back inside.

I have a feeling that he doesn't like me.

"Sky?"

"Go. Minsan lang umuwi Papa mo diba? It's your chance."

She smiled "Thanks."

"Talk or text me later okay?"

She nodded as she got inside the car.

I watched as the car drove away.

I inhaled a deep breath.

"Everything will be alright." I said to myself.

I really hope so.
