I close my eyes as I smell the familiar scent. A tear scape in my eyes as the pain in my chest back.
"Grace..." He said in a soft voice while slowly facing me.
I avoid his gaze and look at to the sea instead. I hate him, why again I let my self follow him?
"My love, please look at me..." He begged as his hand want to touch my face but still I avoid it.
I see in my side vision his eyes was hurt to what I did. I'm also hurt to what you did. I heard he let a deep breath. The wind blow that make my dress and hair dance.
"It's not true, what have you heard, it's not." He started.
"You know what? Explaining is a waste of time, because once a liar always be a liar." I said in firmly but still not looking at him.
I know, once I look at him the anger of wall I'm building this past days gonna break again.
"Yes, maybe I'm a liar. But the care, the worry and the love, I express to you was not a lie and never be a lie." He said in husky voice.
Another tear fall again in my eyes, I bite my lower lips to stop my self to cry in front of him even I know that he already see my tear's.
"Grace... it was just a planned," He said in broke voice that make me shock.
I shake my head, "Planned to hurt me in the end, now that you and Kimberly's plan are success! can you please stop bothering me now?! please! it's hurt! it is!"
I cry out and feel weak after that so I sit in the lounge to continue crying. I feel his presence beside me, and after that I feel his hot body hugging me.
"I'm sorry my love... I'm sorry..." He said and brush his thumb in my shoulder.
"I didn't mean that, I didn't mean you to hear a lie from me. Saying I love Kimberly in front of you was a lie, it's a lie, my love. Kimberly was sick that's why I need to do that,"
I was shock to what James said that's why I slowly lift my head to see him. He exhale when our eyes meet. He wipe my tear's.
"Your grandparents talk to me about her situation, kinailangan naming magpanggap nila Mama at Papa dahil mas malala ang sitwasyon niya kaysa kay Chris." He continue.
Kumunot ang noo ko, "What do you mean?"
"She have a bipolar and this past week I knew something, she is the reason why Chris is not yet healing,"
Napahawak ako sa ulo sa subrang gulo at pagkalito.
"The planned was to make Kimberly know that I'm inlove with her, dahil dun lang siya kumakalma. Like Chris, sayo lang ring siya kumakalma. I want to explain that to you but I can't found you, I loss my mind thinking you left without hearing my explanation, without knowing the truth."
"Grace my love, I'm really sorry, I should explain this to you before," James said and hold my shoulder.
"B-but how could my g-grandparent know?" I said in curious.
"That's also the reason why I don't want you to know," James said that make me upset.
I frown,
"Hindi dapat ako ang sumagot nun Grace, I love you but I need to respect the family you love." James said.
I let a deep breath before facing again the sea. I'm speechless, so what's the lie? Hindi ko na alam kung ano ang gagawin at sasabihin ko. Papaniwalaan ko ba si James, na mahal niya talaga ako?
Pero hindi niya naman siguro ako kakausapin ngayon kung hindi niya ako mahal diba?
"I know you upset right now, but my love I'm telling the truth, I'm telling what my heart saying and that is I love you." James said.
"Pasensya na po sa istorbo, pero si Miss Kimberly po nagwawala sa loob," Sulpot ng isang staff sa harap namin.
"Damn another work again," James whispered and put his arm around my waist, "I just want to stay here,"
I pat his arm, "You asshole! your patience is waiting on you, patahanin mo yun!"
"But I miss you," He said in sweet.
I rise my one eye brow before crossing my hand over my chest. Akala niya, bati na kami? Hindi parin.
"Damn, the Doctora M is back. Ah, how I miss," He said again that make me kilig-konte.
"Ugh! James, isa!" I frustrated said.
"Ayaw ko dun, gusto ko dito. Andito yung babaeng totoo kong mahal,"
Umirap ako, "Doctor Vienna, para kang teenager kung umasta!" Tumayo ako at hinila na siya.
Hinila ko si James pabalik sa loob ng reception.
"Asan ang fiance ko?! asan ang kaibigan niyo?! Magkasama siguro sila!" Rinig kung saad ni Kimberly sa harap kung nasaan nakaupo sina Dave at Kiana.
"Kimberly, nasa restroom lang si Janine. Hindi ko alam kung nasaan si Doc Vienna," Mahinahong saad ni Kiana.
"Bakit fiance mo ba si Doc Vienna? Hindi ba si Janine ang fiance ni Doc Vienna," Nangaasar na saad ni Dave kaya pinalo siya ni Kiana.
Kiana knew something, sumingkit ang mata ko at tinignan si James.
"Yeah, she knew. I need her help anyway," James said to me lazy. Talaga bang ang mga psychiatrist ay nakakabasa ng utak? Dahil alam agad ni James kung ano ang nada utak ko.
"You shut up!" Turo ni Kim kay Dave, "Sa akin magpapakasal si James! I'm also Rondolottie kaya ako ang papakasalan ni James!"
Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Kim, also a Rondolottie? I chuckled without a humor, she is literally sick.
"Rondolottie? ikaw? ano ba ang nakain mo?" Sabat naman ni Lester.
"Oo Rondolottie rin ako! Anak ako ni Papa Oliver kay Mama Mona, bwesit nga lang dapat si Papa at Mama na ang magkakatuluyan nun pero dahil nalaman ni Papa na buntis ulit si Janice the malandi at si Janine ang pinagbubuntis niya, nasira ang pamilya ko!"
"She is just sick right?" Hawak-hawak na ako ni James dahil nanghihina na ako.
"James? may sakit lang siya kaya niya nasasabi ang lahat nang yan, right? yes she is." Saad kung ako rin ang sumagot.
"I'm sorry Grace, I'm sorry..." Saad ni James.
"Bakit ka nagsosorry? Dahil ba ikaw ang Doctor niya at ngayon mas lumalala pa siya?" Saad ko na ikinailing ni James.
May luha ulit na tumulo sa mga mata ko. I'm smart not stupid, now I know why my grandparents know about Kimberly.
"I'm also Rondolottie! Malay niyo ako lang ang nagiisang granddaughter ng mga Rondolottie hindi talaga anak si Janine ni Papa kasi diba? malandi naman Mama niya," Saad ni Kimberly na siyang nagpakulo ng dugo ko.
"She is sick, then I'm sick also." I said firmly.
"Grace!" Saad ni James at bago pa ulit ako mahawakan ni James natakbo ko na ang distansiya namin ni Kim at nasampal ko na siya.
"Janine!" Saad ng mga kaibigan ko ng nakatamo rin ako ng sampal galing kay Kim.
"How dare you!?" I said angry and point her.
She cry laud, "James, sinasaktan niya ako,"
Nalaglag ang panga ni James ng lumapit si Kim sa kaniya at kumapit sa mga braso nito. Mas lalo lang tuloy kumulo ang dugo ko.
"I'm sorry for this, Kiana can you please?" James said to Kiana, Kiana immediately nod.
"Let's go," Kiana said to Kimberly.
"James!" Saad ni Kimberly nagmamakaawang sa tabi niya lang dapat ito.
Ngunit dahil gago si Doc Vienna lumapit siya sa akin at hinaplos ang muka kung sinampal ni Kimberly.
"Are you okay?" James asked. I nod, I don't want to cry, ayaw kung magpaawa effect sa harap ng maraming tao.
"James ijo, please..." Grandma Astrid approach us.
James smirk without humor, "Enough for that Mrs. Rondolottie, your too much fucos on Kimberly that you didn't see how much your granddaughter Grace hurting. My fiance is hurting also, I need to stop this so my relationship between my fiance wouldn't mess more, broke perhaps."
I swallow, Lola knew. James look at me, "Let's go my love. Excuse us."
"Janine..." Lola said but James frimly holding me.
"James! where are you going?!" Sigaw ni Kimberly, "Bitiwan niyo nga ako! Si Janine nanaman ba? Dapat pinatay ko nalang siya noon, dapat matagal ko na siyang pinatay! Bruha ka Janine! Papatayin kita!Papatayin at papatayin kita, para wala na akong kaagaw sa lahat!"
"At bago mo yun magawa dadaan ka muna sa akin." Saad ni Dave na nagpahinto sa amin ni James sa paglalakad.
"Kaya kung magpakalalake para kay Janine, Kimberly alam mo yan." Ani naman ni Lester.
"Ako ang Doctor mo, kaya rin kitang tusukan ng lason pag-ginawa mo yun." Matigas na saad ni Kiana na siyang nagpagulat sa akin.
"Kaya kung sirain ang lisensiyang sampong taon kung pinaghirapan, kung papatayin mo rin naman ang taong siyang dahilan kung bakit ko ito pinaghirapan." Ani ni Josh.
Ate Lavander was about to talk but I sign her to don't. I look around, Kuya Alben didn't have a gun but his body guard have. I go to the nearest body guard in my place and pull the gun inside of him.
"Janine," Kuya Alben said shock.
I shake my head, I slowly approach Kimberly. I throw the gun at Kimberly's place.
"Try it now!" I said, Kimberly stop and look at to the gun angry.
"So the people will see how devil you are," I continue.
"Walang hiya ka! mangaagaw!" Galit na saad ni Kimberly.
"Kahit kailan wala akong inaagaw sayo." Tumawa ako ng mapakla, "Nakalimutan mo atang ikaw. Ikaw ang may inagaw sa akin." Sabay tingin kay Kyle.
Umiwas ng tingin sa akin si Kyle. I laugh, I remember my teenager day's how I cried because of that man. I smile as Kimberly stop.
"Remember now my dearest sissy?" I said while showing my sweet smile.
"You b!thch!" Kimberly about to slap me again but I move that cause her to fall in the floor.
"Opss sorry! need help?" I said as I lift my hand.
"Walang hiya ka talaga!" Inis nang saad ni Kimberly sa akin at tatayo na sana upang sugurin ako pero napatigil ng nagsalita nanaman ako.
"Ever since, you didn't hear something to me even all your doing was below the belt. Wala kang narinig sa akin. Nung inahas mo si Kyle sa akin, may narinig ka ba sa akin? Nung ipinagkalat mo sa buong school na maldita ako at may mga nudes ako, may narinig ka ba sa akin? Nung dapat ako ang kasama ni James at hindi ikaw, nagreklamo ba ako? Diba hindi! Ngayon sino ang walang hiya sa atin?"
"You are literally sick Kimberly! Not just sick, may saltik ka na nga talaga sa utak na hindi ko alam kung kaya pang gamutin ng sinong Doctor." Saad ko bago siya tinalikuran.
Nakita ko ang pag-alala kay Papa at kay Lola. Ngumiti ulit ako. "Don't worry, I wouldn't let you choice. I know how much it hurt when you lost your own child, like what happened to my child because of your crazy daughter."
I turn around to walk in the exit. I see Kew, I nod at her as she slightly nod too and lead the way to me.
