Balancing The Trials Of Hearts

"Are you okay, Manager?" Michael asked naman nang makabalik kami sa office ko. "Manager, is anything bothering you?"

"N-No, I'm fine," sabi ko nalang and started massaging my temples. "It's just that, I feel...worried," sabi ko pa and shook my head. I'm worried for Trevor. I really am, parang inuulit lang 'yung ginawa ko before and it's annoying knowing na he's girlfriend is like that. Like me...before.

I stared at the photo that Michael sent me. It was Raze and the blonde guys photo while they're kissing. I'm scared na baka kapag nalaman niya, he'll be hurt again.

"Manager," Michael called me naman. "Your phone," he said and pointed my phone and I saw na Tide was calling na pala. I took a deep breath bago ko answerin 'yung call. "Yes?"

"We're here on the airport. Tell Michael to fetch us, Yara is with me," he said agad kaya I turned to Michael. I was about to answer palang sana but he ended the call na. He's so rude.

"Michael, Tide is in the airport," I said naman and sighed. "He wants you to fetch him there," I ordered him pa and he stood up naman agad at nagwalk na agad palabas. I placed my elbow on my table while continuously taking deep breath.

I don't know what to do. I have these photos on my hand pero bakit ako na-s-scared na i-send or ipakita 'to sa kaniya. I kept on imagining Trevor being sad again and I can't take it. I don't want to see those sad eyes na kagaya nung gabi na naghiwalay kami. I can't take it anymore.

"Talise," Tide called me nang makita ko sila na papasok sa Casa. I smiled naman and waved at them. "Going home?" he asked and I nodded naman.

"Why are you here?"

"As far as I can remember, this is my resort and you're not my mom nor my girlfriend. Kaya why do I need to give you an explanation?" he savagely answered. "Anyway, let Yara sleep in your house," he said pa kaya tumingin ako kay Yara.

"Sure," I said naman.

"Go away," he ordered us and walked na papasok sa loob. I rolled my eyes nalang and shook my head. I turned to Yara who's quietly standing in front of me. Until now, we're still not talking that much, civil lang kami.

"Let's go?" I asked and she nodded lang naman. I went to my car and she sat naman sa shotgun. I started the engine and started driving na naman agad. The whole drive became silent, I don't know how to start a conversation with her, baka mamaya may it'll turn out bad to her lang.

Nang makarating kami sa house ay I helped her take her things out of the trunk and carried it papasok. It seems na tulog na si Mommy and maybe Kuya is not here pa.

"It's okay, I can handle this," she said and took her things from me but I hold on tight to it. "Why?" she asked.

"Yara," I called her and took a deep breath. "I'm...sorry," I whispered and looked down. "You're right," I said pa and nodded. "I changed kaya now I wanted you to know na I truly am sorry," I said pa and looked at her.
