Chasing Heartaches (Shattered Pieces Series #1)

Epilogue

"No phone calls allowed, Tryne Lexxus." Mom yelled at me in annoyance. I want to beg and beg on her every time I am seeing her. I want to go back to Waige. Hindi ko dapat siya iniwan. I should be staying by her side.

"Ma, could you at least give me time to say goodbye to her?"

I want to assure Waige that I will come back in her arms again after all this bullshit that my Mom planed. Mama is ruling my life like her some sort of dog. She does as she please but when she said that I am getting married, that made me mad at her even more.

Hindi pa ba sapat sa kaniya na dinala niya ako rito ng wala man lang nakakaalam? I want to check on Waige from time to time but how could I do that if I don't even have a phone? Lahat ng galaw ko bantay sarado. Wala siyang pakialam kahit magmaka-awa pa ako.

"Hi, you might be Tryne," said by the girl. Magkasing laki lang sila ni Waige at magkakatawan pero ang laki ng pagkakaiba nila. My Waige is special.

I remember how she rolled her eyes on me every time our paths had crossed. Nung una hindi naman talaga ako seryoso sa pagsunod-sunod sa kaniya. I was just doing it all because I am thrilled. She's hard to get. Mailap siya sa tao at literal na tatlong lalaki lang ang nakikita kong malapit sa kaniya.

Naiinis ako dahil hindi ko malaman kung sino ba talaga ang boyfriend niya sa tatlong iyon. This day it will seem like she had a relationship with Yno but the next day it feels like it's Zolen but the next-next day, I'll see her with Xywon and they act like a freaking couple.

Natagpuan ko na lang ang sarili ko na nagpapapansin sa kaniya. Palagi akong tumatambay sa coffee shop na pinagt-trabahuhan niya. I like seeing her annoyed face. She looks cute but it feels like she'll rip my limbs when I trigger her even more.

"The usual," I said to tease her.

"Sorry, sir. Mind telling me what's your usual order?" she said with her sarcastic voice.

"I really like someone who's always sarcastic," I said to tease her more. Pinagmasdan ko kung paano magbago ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya. Pag inaasar ko siya para siyang palaging tinataasan ng altaprasyon.

"Hi," bati ko sa kaniya nang makita ko siya sa kabilang veranda. She's on Xywon's condo. Alam kong palagi silang magkakasama but when I saw Yno walk in, I lost it. Alam kong talo na ako sa kaniya.

"Hey, Tryne! Nandyan ka lang pala," sabi ni Amir sa akin. Nakatingin lang ako kay Waige na nakahawak sa railings. I can't believe this. Ilang beses ko siyang binati pero hindi man lang ako pinansin, she even used her earphone to get rid of me.

"Shut up," I hissed at him. Waige's crying in Yno's arms. Gusto kong marinig ang pinag-uusapan nila pero kahit anong gawin ko, wala.

"Selos ka lang, e. Hayaan mo na, may sasabihin ako na mas ikakaselos mo pa," he said. Nakatayo lang ako habang pinagmamasdan ko 'yung dalawa. I wanted to hug and comfort her until she felt okay.

This may sound cheesy but I feel like we were destined with each other when I saw her on a resort. Kasama na naman niya 'yung tatlong kaibigan niya. Inaya lang ako ni Amir dito kasama 'yung barkada niya. Sumama na ako dahil wala namang pasok si Waige kaya hindi ko siya makikita sa café.

"Hi Waige," sabi ko nang maka-ahon ako sa tubig mula sa pagkahawak sa paa niya. She screamed after that. I want to hold her face to feel how soft it is.

"Hello? Do I know you?" she asked. It almost made my eyes bawled. For the first time, hindi niya ako sinungitan.

"Saan ba tayo nagkita?" sabi niya nang tanunging ko siya kung hindi niya ako nakikilala. It shocks the hell out of me. Imposibleng hindi niya ako makilala, 'di ba? I made a lot of moves on her and she didn't even remember me?
