Make Me Believe (ASHLEY 4) ☑

Chapter 31

He chuckled and god knows how my heart reacts wildy because of that. "That's why, My love for you will never end, baby."

My heart feels warm by those words, I lay on my bed again with a smile, he followed what I did. My smiled slowly faded when I remember someone, Pailalim kong tiningnan ang mukha ni Rogue at napansin naman niya ito, he smiled at me and pull me closer to him again, I whole heartedly hugged him back.

"Rogue?"

"Hmm? Yes baby..." he said while caressing my shoulder using his thumb.

"Dyesebel Sereyna Ashley." His finger moves slower this time.

"Who is she?" He ask, his voice were filled so much curiosity but there's also an excitement.

"She's my... my daughter." I said in a low voice.

Tumigil siya sa paghaplos sa balikat ko, at ng tumingala ako sa kaniya ay hindi na ako nagulat ng makita ko ang reaksyong inaasahan ko sa kaniya.

"I-is s-she... m-mine t-too?" Nanginginig niyang sabi.

I pull myself together and smile at him while nodding slowly. Bumuka ang bibig niya at tinikom niya ulit. Huminga ako ng malalim, at hinawakan ang kamay niya. "She got a heart disease. "

His eyes immediately saddened. "T-tell me more a-about her, please."

Biglang kumirot ang puso ko. "You don't have to beg, she's your daughter too, and you have the rights to know." I gently said. "Coronary heart disease. She suffers that disease since she was four, At dahil sa sakit niya hindi ko siya masyadong pinapasalamuha sa ibang tao, strong emotions are not good for her, she never complained. She's smart, Kind, and spoiled. She loves chocolates kahit pa bawal sa kaniya, she love mermaids."

Nakatingin lang sa akin si Rogue, halatang aliw na aliw sa mga sinasabi ko, I can see how he wanted to know more, and I know I would hurt him.

"But everytime I mention about her father." I stopped and observe his face for a moment. "Inaatake siya." He look pained. Pinisil ko ang kamal niya. "But don't worry, she loves you so much-"

"But if Its a big risk-"

"Hey." I cut him off. "Dont worry, it will be fine, ok?" I said trying to get him from his negative thoughts.

Kahit na ako alam kong napakalaki ng risk ng gusto kong mangyari, But when I saw His reaction when I told him she is his, I know that I made a huge mistake before. Ang maging duwag noon, ang pilit na ilayo si Rogue at dyesebel sa isa-isa, at ang pagduduhan ang pagmamahal ni Rogue para sa akin.

That's why I want to make it up to him and to Dyesebel. Ako ang naging hadlang sa kanilang mag-ama, ako ang naging kontra-bida, ang naging masama, kaya dapat lang na itama ko ito. I just hope that my daughter's heart will be on my side this time, sana lang wag siyang atakihin, sana makisama sa akin ang puso niya, sana.

"We're here." Sabi ko ng maharap ko na si Rogue.

He nervously breath in and out, bumaba ang tingin niya sa hawak na hello kitty stuffed toy. "Is this... fine? Sa tingin mo magugustuhan niya ito? O baka naman sobrang liit-"

"Mas malaki pa nga ang laruang ito kay dyesebel eh!" Natatawa kong sabi. "Don't worry ok? Dyesebel is not a materialistic girl, at isa pa may dala kang chocolates, that would be enough." Pinagsiklop ko ang aming mga daliri. "Kasama ko pa ang ama niya, that's more than enough."

I gave him a reassuring smile and he nervously smile back, I gave him a peck hoping it would help, at ng ilalayo ko na sana ang mukha ko ay hinapit niya ang beywang ko at binigyan ako ng mas malalim na halik.
