His One-Sided Love (COMPLETED)

10. Unexpected Proposal

Fudge. Hawak hawak ko ngayon ang kumikirot kong ulo. Shit bakit ba kasi ako uminom, naparami tuloy ako. It was beyond my control. Tsk.. Teka, bakit nasa kama na ako? Sa pagkakatanda ko nasa cottage lang ako nun..

Sinubukan kong bumangon pero sobrang bigat ng pakiramdam ko. Madilim pa ang paligid pero naabot ko naman ang lampshade.

Nang lumiwanag, nakita ko sa orasan na alas singko pa lang ng umaga. Naalimpungatan pala ako. Pero bakit wala si Katy dito? Nilibot ko pa ang mata ko sa kabuuan ng kwarto...asan na kaya yun?

Oh my God, is this Jiro? Bakit sya nakahiga sa sofa and what is he doing here in my room? I'm supposed to be roommate with Katy. 

I tried my best to get up so I could go near him. Thank God and nakaya ko naman desppite the hangover.

Tinititigan ko lang sya realizing I hurt him again last night. Yun ang iniiwasan ko talaga, ang makasakit. And I know I unintentionally hurt him..

Cause I couldn't lie. I couldn't tell I like him kung alam kong mababale ko ang pangako ko kay Art when he died...

Sorry if I caused you another pain, Jiro. Please love someone else. I don't deserve it. 

If ever we met in another path of life, maybe we could give it a shot.. A path of life where I can like you and even love you back.

"Sa, gising ka na pala, are you okay now? You're too drunk last night."

Amp nagising na sya, buti at nakalayo ako agad. Muntik na ko doon. Ano na lang iisipin niya kung makita niya akong malapit sa kanya. "Yes, I'm okay. Good morning. Bakit sa sofa ka natulog?"

"I carried you last night. Katy asked me too. Okay ka na ba? Hmmm sige aalis na ko ha. Mag-aayos na din ako. We have a flight back home."

"Hmm sige. Salamat ha and sorry for last night."

"No need to say sorry. Okay lang, mabuti nga at nakatulog ka agad. Drink coffee so you'll feel better. "

"I mean, sorry for last night. Sorry if I had to answer that."

"No worries."

Sa pagbabantay ko kay Sasa, nakatulog na rin ako sa sofa. Siguro kung loko loko pa rin ako, nagalaw ko na sya gaya ng mga nakakasama kong babae noon. But sasa is different, she has to be respected. And I respect the woman I love the most.
