AZRIEL'S OBSESSION (Completed)

Chapter 24

Break

Each passing day, I feel emptier and emptier. Azriel is always going home late. Tulog na ako pag dumadating sya at tulog pa rin ako kung aalis na sya.

I don't know why, it's either because his company is launching a big project or... he's just being with Anikka behind my back.

I will never talk to him again.

Tinitigan ko ang balkonahe na nakasarado na ngayon. Inilipat ko ang tingin sa bintana. Like what I said, it's small but not too small that I couldn't fit kasya pa rin ako kung pipilitin.

Buo na ang desisyon kong tumakas. He treats me like an animal. Asawa nya ako pero hindi ibig sabihin nun na maari na nya akong kontrolin at ikulong. I know I did mistakes, but do I deserve this?

I'm being locked here while he's probably enjoying his every minute there. Wala ako, walang makakakita kung may nangyayari nga. I suddenly remembered what Ysmael said, hindi nya itinuloy pero pakiramdam ko ay may nakita sya.

"This marriage is bullshit! Mag-divorce na tayo!" galit na galit kong sigaw sa pader. I want to shout him in his face. "I never loved you and I will never love you, Azriel!"

Pinaghahampas ko ang pader ng unan na para bang ito si Azriel. "I hate you so much! Fuck you, cheater!

"I want to... file a divorce! I want to be free! I want to do what I want. I want to pursue modeling! But I can't do any of that because of you, controling freak!" I cried. I wish I can say this all to him pero kapag nandyan sya ay natatameme ako. He is so intimidating.

I stood up and packed all my clothes in a bag. Umiiyak ako habang itinatago iyon sa ilalim ng kama. I want to escape.

I mentally laughed at myself, thinking about the novels I've read where the wives escape their abusive husbands and started pursuing their careers. I wish I can do that, too. I wish I could be a model and my face and body will be wherever he goes. At hanggang tingin na lang sya. Not even his finger tips will be able to touch me. Then I'll remarry a good man which will make him regret cheating on me if he actually do.

I wish my life was just like the novels I've read. But I know it's not. If I won't do actions now, I'll end up being a martir wife. There's no such thing as destiny. We can't just rely with the saying "If it's meant to be, it will be"

No, that's bullshit. That was my motto and now, look at me. Ugly and pathetic as fuck.

Matapos itago ang bagahe ay naupo ako sa kama. At least, I still have my phone with me. I just used it to look at the google maps.

This is where the bus stop. I can make it up there by just walking for about 10 minutes. If I am escaping, then I am running which will make it for just 5 minutes.

Inalala ko kung nasaan ang bahay ni tito. No way I'll go home in Daddy's house. Naroon si Anikka. Tito Glassifer's house is just 2 hours away from here. Re Spalo Village. After riding a bus, I still have to ride a taxi. That's it.

Nang gumabi ay inaasahan ko nang late si Azriel. I just ate my dinner innocently. Tahimik lang akong kumakain at hindi sinusungitan ang maid. Mukha tuloy syang nagtataka habang pinapanood ako.

"What?"

"Ma'am, kapatid nyo po iyong Anikka, hindi ba?" tanong nya bigla. Kumunot ang noo ko at dinaluhan ng kaba. Don't fucking tell me she's gonna spill some tea.

"W-why?"

"Ah, kanina po kasi hinihintay ko kayong magising. Tapos naliligo si sir, tumunog yung phone nya. Nag-text po iyong Anikka Farrah na contact name," inosente nyang sabi.
