Ex-Wife's Revenge

✔ Tenth Chapter

Mga ilang araw na rin mula ng nagising ako from my coma. The doctor said that I'm getting well, slowly but surely. I rolled my eyes with what he said.

What an overused statement.

"Oy!" saway sa'kin ni dear ng makaalis 'yung doctor. "Umaandar na naman ang katarayan mo ah."

I sighed. "I'm sorry dear. Unti-unting bumabalik 'yung mga pangyayari sa past eh. Even my true and real self and personality are starting to show up," I look up to meet her eyes. "I won't blame you if you started to hate me."

Kumunot-noo si dear na parang naguluhan siya sa sinabi ko. Nang bigla niya akong paluin.

"OUCH!" Nanlaki ang mga mata ako sa ginawang pagpalo ni dear sa akin. "SIAN!"

Nag-crossed arms siya. "Serves you right," she said and it's my turn para magkunot-noo. "Ang adik mo dear! Kahit na maging halimaw man ang ugali mo, maging baliw ka man, maging adik ka man, maging pangit ka man, maging pulubs ka man, mamahalin kita maging... sino ka man!"

Napaubo ako para matago ang tawa ko. "Maging kasing sama man ang ugali mo sa ugali ng siraulo mong asawa," napahinto siya at napatingin sa'kin. Tinuro niya ako. "Ay, pasensyahan na lang dear. Papakulong kita!"

'Di ko na talaga kaya. "Pfft! HAHAHAHA!"

Nagulat si dear sa inasta ko at naguluhan.

"Haha, d-dear, haha," nahihirapan kong sabihin.

"Sige lang dear, tawa ka lang. Libre lang 'yan, hindi kita sisingilin after five sconds. Pero after five seconds? 50 pesos na 'yan."

Agad akong napatigil. "50 PESOS? BAKIT 50? ANG MAHAL DE PUTEK!"

She smugly smiles. "Eh di tumigil ka rin."

I stopped and glared at her. "Naisahan mo ako doon ah!" I said and she sticks her tongue out. Bata talaga kung umasta itong si dear. Haha.

"Escusa? Batang isip dear," she retorted. "Obvious lang sa facial expression mo dear," she answered my soon-to-be question.

"May pagkakaiba nga naman," pagsang-ayon ko.

She nods and becomes serious all of a sudden. "Dear," she calls me.

"Hm?"

"Regarding about your husband—"

"Fake husband," I corrected.

She rolled her eyes. "Fake husband," she imitated me then her eyes grew big. "FAKE HUSBAND? A-ANONG IBIG MONG SABIHIN DEAR?"

Napangiwi ako sa sigaw niyang tanong, pero kinuwento ko pa rin ang narinig ko nung gabing iyon. "I heard his mother. She said that Violet Kizon is Sylvester Theo Travis' REAL wife."

"Oh my gosh. Then t-that means.."

I nodded. "Yeah, we had a fake wedding, a fake married life, a fake love, a fake sex, a fake little happiness, a fake laughter and smiles." I don't know why but my tears are not fake and they are flowing down my cheeks. "All of those moments we shared together, all of THEM! THEY ARE ALL FREAKING FAKE!

Hinawi ni dear and buhok ko. "Yet, your love is real," she said in a sad voice.

Dear is right. I did love that guy. Didn't I?

"Yes, that's the stupid part of me," I sniffed. "I loved that animal in a very strange and very unexplained reason."

I heard her sighed. "Well, we―you―might not know the reason why right now, time will come and the reason will, too. Our questions will be answered dear," dear said with determination. "Soon."
