The Billionaire's Wicked Scars | RBS 3

CHAPTER 33 - REALITY

ZERO

My brows remained furrowed as we head back to the villa. The car ride was silent and my mood  changed really bad from what Rake has told me. I sighed and closed my eyes tightly. Hinilot ko ang sentido ko nang makaramdam ng pagpintig nito. Damn.

I can even feel Amara's eyes watching my movements. Alam niyang masama ang pakiramdam ko pero hindi ko masabi kung alin ang masakit sa akin. Kung ang ulo ko ba, o ang dibdib ko.

Fuck. Why am I suddenly confused when in fact, I was damn hell sure of my fucking feelings yesterday?

It wasn't that long till we reached the beach. Agad akong bumaba ng sasakyan at dumiretso sa paglakad patungong villa. Hindi na lumingon pa. I may acted rudely but I don't give a shit. I just want to clear my head so fucking bad.

Hindi dapat ako naaapektuhan ng ganito. Hindi dapat ako nakakaramdam ng ganito. The past is already behind me because I'm moving forward to my future with Amara. This is what I am sure of. That I am nothing more than willing to spend the rest of my life with her.

Aria's behind me now... and the feelings that I have for her  too.

"Thank you for touring us, Rake. Pasensya na sa abala." I heard Amara talked to my friend behind me.

Nararamdaman ko ang pagsunod nilang dalawa sa akin.

Walang dahilan para maging ganito ang araw ko. I don't want to ruin this short vacation with my wife but the words that Rake has told me replays like a broken record in my head. No. I should not act this way.

"Ayos lang. Pasensya na din at mukhang... hindi na tayo matutuloy sa iba pang lugar."

I have accepted the fact that I am not for her. She's already right where she belongs to... my bestfriend, Alexus. That alone is enough for me to take hundreds of steps away. And now that I'm in love with my wife, I don't want my past to hunt our relationship now. Tama na ang ilang taong hindi ako kumilos. This time, I will do everything for my wife.

Hindi ko hahayaang mawala pa siya sa akin. I have lost my mother, once lost my little sister, my father is long gone... the only person in my life right now is Amara.

"It's okay, Rake. For sure we will visit this island again, anytime soon."

Sa lalim ng iniisip ko, hindi ko na nasundan ang pinag-uusapan nila.

"Just drop a call when that time comes. Para naman makapaghanda ako ng mas maayos."

"Yes, we will. Thank you, again."a

I can feel my wife's smile to the man. Hindi ako nakatiis at marahas na nilingon sila. At tama nga ang hula ko. They're fucking smiling at each other.

"What are you two talking about?"

Amara looked at me worriedly. "Nothing," lumapit siya at hinawakan ang kamay ko. The warmth of her palm calmed me.

She smiled, "tara na sa villa nang makapagpahinga ka."

Nilingon niyang muli ang lalaki na ngayon ay seryosong nakatingin sa aming dalawa. Rake smiled back at her. What the heck?

Why am I acting like this? I could rip off any man's face for staring at my wife... What more smile at her?

Calm yourself, Galanis. You're not your usual self today. Calm.

"I'll be heading back to the bar cafe," paalam niya samin.

Tumango ako at nagsimulang maglakad nang muli.

The water splashed on the shore. Our second day here is coming to an end. Tapos ganito pa ang inakto ko?

"Are you okay? Do you want me to get you some medicine or food?" she asked and I shook my head.
