Finale

“Why did you left me?” she asked that makes me stunned.

I don’t know if I’m ready to explain to her everything.

“Martin?” she called my attention but I can’t look into her eyes.

I’m afraid. I’m afraid that she might not believe what I says. And kung iisipin baka sabihin niyang mababaw lang ang rason ko.

“Martin? Hello, bakit hindi ka nagsasalita? Are you avoiding my question? If you’re not ready to tell me your reason, it’s okay. I understand. . .”

She’s smiling while saying those things. I can't help but to feel ashamed.

She understands me even I’m the reason why she suffered.

How can you be like this, Yasmine?

“I love you, Yasmine. I always love you and I’ll never get tired of loving you, love. . .” the only word I said to her.

Maybe, I’ll find a perfect time to tell her what’s my exact reason why I broke up with her. To prove that I didn’t left her because of Shaira.

I loved Shaira. She’s my past and Yasmine is my present and my future.

I never see anyone to be the mother of my future children, only Yasmine. She’s my everything.

“Let’s eat, love. You want pancake?” I asked her.

I’m here at their condo. It’s early in the morning and they have a flight today so I came here earlier just to cook them a breakfast.

Cooking a breakfast for them becomes my routine since I started courting Yasmine again.

“Yes, please. . .” nakangiti niyang sambit.

She’s so cute.

“Ako rin, Kuya. . .” pagsisingit ni Pauline.

One month of courting Yasmine is never been easy. I also apologize to her parents what I’ve done and they understand. They already know my reaosn. But I still can’t tell Yasmine what it is.

Courting her means entering a battle. I battle that I need to fight for her. I need to gain her trust again that I break year ago. Even, it’s hard. I shouldn’t give up.

Nilagyan ko ng pagkain ang plato nilang dalawa at gano’n din ang sa akin. Tahimik lang kaming kumain at nang matapos ay nagprisenta na si Pauline na maghugas ng plato. I said no but she insists.

“Yas, let us talk kahit sandali lang?”

Nagtataka man pero tumango lang ito at nagtungo sa balcony.

“Ano ang pag-uusapan natin?”

“Do you believe me if my reason why I’d left you because I love you?”

I left Yasmine because I want her to fullfil her dreams.

“Ha? What do you mean?”
