MS 2: To Own Her (Completed)

Special Chapter

#MSeries2

I know hurting a girl will remove the honor in me as a man. Sofia is important to me because she's the only friend I trusted since we were kids. I treasure our friendship so much. I treasure her being my female friend. But it all changes when she begun to confess everything she's done out of her desperation. I badly wanted to hurt her for that but I controlled my emotions as she kneeled in front of me and cried so hard. If I lay a finger on her I would deserve Martina in my life.

Nagpupuyos ako sa galit dahil sa kanya. Noon paman alam niyang isang babae lang ang gusto ko at si Martina iyon. Wala nang iba pa. Mariin kong kinuyom ang aking kamao.

"I am the only woman you used to know before she came into our way, Carlos. You never look at me the way you look at her. I was threatened at her! Dahil pakiramdam ko kahit wala siyang gawin para makuha ka niya sa akin siya ang magugustuhan mo! Yes, I did planned everything to her hurt so she'd stay away from you but she didn't! Natatakot ako."nanlumo siya sa sahig habang umiiyak."I've been with you for years but why can't you fall in love with me..."

"Because I don't want to ruin our decades of friendship, Sof."I cut her.

Alam ko. It's not impossible for her to fall in love with me. Higit pa sa pagkakaibigan ang gusto niya para sa aming dalawa. But I couldn't give her that. I can't give her motives that I can reciprocate the feelings she has for me. She is a friend and only a friend to me.

"Pero sinira mo. At hindi ko gusto ang lahat ng iyon. Isang babae lang, Sof. Isang babae lang ang kaya kong mahalin ng sobra sobra sa buhay ko. Si Martina lang. But she left me because of your fucking desperation towards me! Why can't you just be happy with my decisions in life!? Why do you have to ruined everything that I want!? Why did you do that to us?! Nakuha ko na sana ang pangarap ko sa buhay pero naiwala ko ng dahil sayo, Sofia. She's gone and doesn't want to be found. Hindi na 'yon babalik sa akin. Hinding hindi na, Sof."I whispered my last sentence.

The pain I felt right now is unbearable. I'm close to get crazy thinking that she's out of my sight. What if she's found someone else while she's mending her broken heart? What if someone makes her even happier? What will happen to me?

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Forgive me, Carlos. Hindi ko kakayanin kung mawala ka sa buhay ko. Patawarin mo ako. Gagawin ko lahat ng gusto mo patawarin mo lang ako at ibalik ang pagkakaibigan natin. Please..."

She tried to reach for my hand but I didn't let her. Nabigla siya sa ginawa ko at nagpatuloy sa pag iyak. I am kind to you, Sof. But starting today I won't be. This is the consequence of your desperation. This is the price you need to pay. Kaya kong putulin ang pagkakaibigan natin para kay Martina. Kahit hindi niya man ako balikan sa susunod na araw, buwan o mga taon, wala na ang pagkakaibigan natin.

"Leave and don't ever come back."I coldly uttered and stormed out in her condo.

I muttered curses when I saw her missed calls on my phone. An urgent meeting just ended and it's time to go to his father's birthday celebration at their house. Late na ako pero kailangan parin na pumunta ako para sa ama niya. I fixed my rift with Tito Aryel already so I'd be deserving for his only daughter. Besides that I can accept his hatred towards me forever. That's how willing I am to take everything for her Martina.

I was greeted by her hug and kiss. Umasim kaagad ang tingin niya.

"You're late."she pointed out.

I smiled at her."I'm sorry. Tinapos ko lang ang huling meeting. I want to greet your dad."

Tinuro niya kung saan ang kanyang ama. "Pagkatapos mo kay dad pumunta ka sa table namin nila Mikaela. I'll get you food."

"Thanks, baby."
