Conquering the Wild Waves (Villaloid Siblings #1)

23

Akward akong tumawa at nilingon si Zach na nakatingin saakin, sinenyasan ko sya na sya ang sumagot sa tanong pero parang hindi nito naintindihan ang pinahihiwatig ko.

Seryoso ba? Abogado ba sya?

Akward ulit akong tumawa "Wala po kaming relasyon, hindi ko nga po kilala yan ehh" bago kinamot ang ulo ko, tatay lang naman sya ng anak ko.

Ramdam ko ang tensyon na namuo saamin ni Zach nakaramdam din siguro sila Aeseria kaya nagpaalam nasila. Pababa na ako sa stage ng may pares ng maiinit na palad ang pumulupot sa braso ko dahilan para mapatalon ako.

"Why did you say that? Why didn't you tell then the truth that we know each other? Do you really despise me that much?" I can feel bitterness in his voice

Tinignan ko sya ng masama bago marahas na binawi ang kamay ko "Why didn't you tell me na hindi na pala ako? Na you just used me?! And yes! I really despise you that much that i even wish that you didn't cane into my life!" Mahina ngunit madiin na pagkakasabi ko, i want him to know that i really really hate him

"By any chance is she my daughter? Y-yung batang kasama mo sa floating resto kanina?"

I laughed sarcastically "Why? Pananagutan mo? Hindi mo yun anak! Mag isip ka ng mabuti putangina! Magaling na abogado ka tapos ganyan ka mag-isip?"

I saw pain in his eyes, Zach hindi mo na ako maloloko bwesit ka! I rolled my eyes on him "Czena, hindi na ba ako? Siyam na taon kita hinintay ako nalang ulit" pagmamaka-awa nya

"H-hindi na ikaw, i'm ready to leave our happy memories Zach, and face the future alone... Without you" i felt a pang in my chest.

Tama... Si Lonzo ang piliin mo dahil sakanya ligtas ka, hindi katulad ni Zach na paulit-ulit kang lulunurin

I realized that the world is really cruel but still it's a wonderful place to live in especially when you have someone by your side. I thought that someone is Zach but i was wrong it will always be Lonzo, he will always be my safe haven in this cruel world.

"Czena wag naman ganito, alam ko nag kamali ako pero sana patawarin mo ako, bigyan mo ako ng pagkakataon, hindi ko na sisirain yun, bawiin mo na ulit ako. Czen, all this years God knows how much i prayed for your happiness, and i think your happy, pwede yung kasiyahan ko naman?" He pleaded his eyes are now bloodshot tears started to build up on the corner of his eyes.

"Stop bothering me, let go of me, it will make me happy, i finally accepted it Zach. I finally accepted our fate that we are not meant for each other"

And when his tears fell that broke me more. Pinipilit ko na huwag umiyak, i can't believed that the wildest and great Zach Villaloid begged and cried in front of me.

"Zach, let go na. Let's move forward, it's been nine years it's time for us to let go of each other. Be free Zach, you can't always find happiness in other people, you can't always find love in other people. Minsan sa sarili mo yun matatagpuan, love yourself Zach. Ikaw muna bago sila. I'm proud of you, attorney. I love you. I hope in another life we would conquer the waves together" i wiped his tears before finally taking the last steps in the stairs.

Hinanap ko ang pamilya ko, i found them pero bago ako makarating sakanila ay kailangan ko daanan sila Dad and of course kasama ang mga Villaloid. His new family stares made me uncomfortable but i'm Czena Adikia, i was born confident.

I confidently walked passed them, i stared at my Dad before shifting my gaze to my Mommy.

"Mommy! I did it!" Tuwang-tuwa na sigaw ko

My mom hugged me so tight, she kept whispering to me na she's so proud of me.

Kumalas lamang ako sa yakap ng maramdaman ko ang pag hila saakin ni Justice.
