Love, Zachary [ COMPLETED]

8

I know it's late, but I can't help it not see Jasper.

"Ako na ma!"

I waited for Jasper to open the door. After a few seconds the door opened.

"S-Summer-----"

Niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit. I really don't know what to do. Hindi ko alam kung sino yung lalapitan ko.

"Anong nangyari? Ayos ka lang ba? Ilang araw kang walang paramdam ah."

"I was dealing with some family issues." Seryoso kong sabi.

Kumalas ako ng yakap para magkaharap kami ni Jasper.

"Tara sa loob, kumain kana ba? May natirang ulam----"

"It's okay, I just wanted to see you." Seryoso kong sabi.

Sinarado ni Jasper yung pinto sa likod niya. Pumunta kami sa bench dito sa gilid ng pintuan at tabi kaming naupo.

"I-I'm going back to New York." Sabi ko kay Jasper.

"Huh? Bakit? Akala ko ba dito na kayo titira ng mommy mo?"

Umiling naman ako.

"We need to go back. My mom needs to undergo with her treatment. "

"Bakit? Anong nangyari sa mommy mo?"

"S-she's suffering from stage three cancer. "

Hinawakan naman ni Jasper yung kamay ko.

"Sorry hindi ko alam na may pinagdadaanan ka pala."

"It's okay. I'm doing everything to help my mom recover. We found the best Doctor in New York." I said to Jasper.

"Babalik ka pa ba dito?" He asked.

Lumingon naman ako kay Jasper para titigan siya.

"I don't know." Seryoso kong sabi.

"I'm marrying someone, Jas." Dagdag ko.

Napakunot naman yung noo ni Jasper dahil sa sinabi ko.

"A-Ano? Nagbibiro ka ba? Sino namang papakasalan mo? Joke time ba to?" Hindi makapaniwalang sabi ni Jas.

"I wish it's just a joke too. B-But I'm not joking, Jasper." Seryoso kong sabi.

"My dad had this contract with his business partner a long time ago. That's why my mom and I went here to get away from everything. We didn't took any cent from dad."

"But after I found out about what my mom was going through...."

"I'm willing to marry a stranger just for my mom. They offered me 70% share of their companies. It means I'll have more money to help my mom. That's all I want to do."

"P-Paano ka Summer? Ni hindi mo nga kilala yung mapaoangasawa mo. Paano kung masamang tao yun? O kaya paano kung matanda yung mapapangasawa mo? Hindi mo ba iniisip yung sarili mo?!"

I shook my head.

"I don't care about what I want. I don't even care about my own happiness anymore. " I said.

Lumapit ako kay Jasper at ipinatong yung ulo ko sa balikat niya. Pinulupot ko yung braso ko sakanya.

"If everything will turn out fine, I'll come visit you here again. " Dagdag ko pa.
