When it Haunts You

I am walking towards the operating room when someone approaches me, no, he called my name and I was surprised to see who was now in front of me.

“Nazy?” My ex-fiancé.

He smiled. Fvck! I missed—

“I heard that you’re in charge of my wife’s operation. Please save my wife, Keres.” His eyes were begging.

“Wife?” My brows curved.

“Zeriah.”

“Ah, yeah, yung pinalit mo sa akin?” Yumuko s’ya.

“HAHAH just kidding! It’s supposed to be Dr. Zion, by the way, but there’s an emergency, so he let me take care of it since we’re in the same field of expertise. But worry not, I’ll do my best.”

I smiled and was about to tap his shoulder when he suddenly hugged me. I was surprised but I hugged him back. Damn! I missed him.

“Thank you. Thank you, Keres.”

“Uh, I think I need to go, Heliouz.”

He wiped his tears.

“I-I’m sorry. But, please, I’m begging you, Kei. Please save her." He said with a pleading voice.

I nodded.

“Don’t worry.”

The moment I entered the operation room, I prepared myself and started to open up her head, yes, I will be touching the delicate part of our body. I’m a neurosurgeon, by the way.

I was about to finish when something popped up in my mind.

-

Now, I’m here on the rooftop of this hospital.

I closed my eyes as the cold breeze touches my skin.

A warm liquid oozes from my eyes. I remembered how devastated Heliouz is earlier. Right, he loves Zeriah. He loves her. He chose her over me.

I smiled bitterly as my tears were streaming down my face.

I stand and looked at those tiny things down there.

I closed my eyes.

“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.”

I uttered before jumping off the building.

I’m sorry for intentionally killing your wife.
