HIS ASSETS (Law of Attraction Series#2)

Chapter 61

Kace's Point of View

January 17 (At Kace's Pad)

"Mom texted me and she's still pushing me to Vernon!" she said while her face doesn't look good, you can see to her face that she doesn't like what her Mom tells her.

"Why not try dating him?" Fuck! I said that and deep inside of me wanted to kill myself for fucking saying things I never wanted to happen.

She stops what she's doing and I watch how her lips parted when I say that, "What did you say, Love?" she ask and this time I face her and stare at her sad eyes, fuck!

"I said try dating him, Malay mo your good together. You can just leave me when he finally gets your heart. That would be fine with me, I mean less hassle right. Hindi kana mahihirapan pang mag-isip kung pano ipapaalam yong relationship natin sa Mom mo, I think that Vernon will take good take of you," I said and resume eating, but I almost break the fork I'm using, I fucking hate my life. Why does it need to be like this? I continue eating and act like what I said is just nothing.

"Y-You t-think I'd be g-good with h-him?" I heard her voice cracking and she's trying to stop herself from crying which breaks my heart inside.

"Yeah," tumatango-tangong sambit kong sambit at patuloy kumain at nilakihan ko na ang bawat pag subo ko ng pagkain para mabilis makaalis sa tabi niya dahil hindi ko alam hanggang saan ko kayang maging ganito sa kanya. Kailangan ko itong gawin.

"Would you really let your g-girlfriend d-date other M-Men?" she asked. I gulf and take the last bite of food before I put down the fork on the table."I'm done thank you for the food. It was good," I said, quickly standing up and walking inside my room, leaving her in the dining area.

As I close the door I lean on the wall and cover my eyes. I bite my lips so hard and I badly want to punch myself right now. Instead, I punch the wall. After punching the wall I decided to check her out there, I know she's not ok.

When I walked out of the room I didn't see her on the dining table so I quickly walked and looked at the kitchen. I saw her sitting on the floor holding her arms.

"Paige?" when I call her she quickly stands up and wipes her tears. Trying to hind it for me, but I already saw her.

"What happened to your arms!!!" I said and hurriedly held her hand to check her wound. "What happened Paige!!!"I panicked and asked her again.

She suddenly burst out crying, "Wahhh!!!" so I panicked even more, scared that I hurt her by blowing her wound. "Fuck! Does it hurt so bad?!"

"Come here," I hurriedly and gently carried her and made her sit at the breakfast table. "How bad does it hurt?" I asked and wiped my tears, my heart beat so fast because of nervousness Fuck! "S-so b-bad," she whispers and continues crying and covering her eyes using her other arms, like a child.

"Wait, let's put some ointment on it, "I said and grab the first aid kit out. "Hey, stop crying please," I beg her and remove her arms from her face. When our eyes meet I almost melt seeing the woman I love is carrying and hurt. "Wait, masakit pa rin ba?!" she nodded and I continued adding up more ointment on her wound.

"It hurts so bad," she whispers as she looks at me, that's when I realize that it was not the wound that hurt her It was me. "Why do you h-have t-too s-say that?" she asked. "Why did you lie to me? You said you're with my brother but my brother is in the company the whole day," she avoided meeting my gaze while saying that while I feel so guilty about it. "Why are you avoiding and distancing yourself from me? Why are you pushing me away?"
