TPS: Axel de Ayala [BXB]

TPS: Chapter 38

[] Kaenu Payton

Nilapag ko ang baso na may lamang tubig sa lamesa at umupo sa bakanteng upuan katapat ni Vanessa. I don't know what she want to me at kung bakit gusto niya akong kausapin when I don't even know her. Also, she's pregnant and her tummy is quite big, maybe almost giving birth?

"It's already been six months.." She said, I frowned dahil naguguluhan ako sa sinabi niya.

She then massages her tummy. "Sorry, I mean my tummy. It's already been six months before I finally give birth." Nakangiti niyang sambit sa akin. I feel happy about her. I mean sobrang saya siguro sa pakiramdam na magkaroon ng anak. Pero kaagad rin nawala ang ngiti niya sa labi at malungkot na tumingin sa akin.

"Sadly, the father doesn't want us." May nagbabadyang luhang saad niya. I can even feel sadness in her voice.

"Oh..I'm sorry..I didn't know." I said, feeling sorry for her.

Vanessa shook her head and chuckled. "It's alright. I shouldn't be telling you this because we're both strangers to each other."

I nodded at her. "It's alright..but what is it that you're going to say to me?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Sabi niya kasi kanina na gusto niya akong kausapin at may sasabihin din siya.

She scratched her neck and drank the water I gave to her. She deeply sighed before she started talking about her life and how hard it is for her. I know I have nothing to do with her since we're both strangers to each other but I just listened to her because of the thought that I wasn't the only one who's struggling with life.

Na hindi pala ako nag-iisa na nahihirapan gumising araw-araw. That there's also another person with another problem that they're facing everyday. Not just me.

"My life is full of shits you know. I'm an Adopted daughter, and they want me to marry this guy and make them proud. You know what? Hindi sana ako papayag knowing that this guy already has someone he loves..the most. B-but, I got pregnant and that guy is the father and instead of making my family proud of me for the first time, kahihiyan ang idudulot ko sa kanila kapag hindi ako pinakasalan." Mahabang salaysay niya sa akin.

I suddenly feel sorry for her. Why does everyone have to go through a shithole life? "D-does the father of your child know your situation? I'm sure he'll be glad to marry you cuz why not?" I said to at least cheer her up.

Umiling siya sa akin. "I told him at first and he demanded to abort our baby. Pero hindi ko ginawa because this baby is the one that I have. The key so that I could finally be part of the family."

"I'm sorry.." Sorry is the only thing I could say.

"He doesn't want us, he doesn't wanna be a father and he doesn't wanna marry me because he already had a lover." Dagdag pa niya at tuluyan na siyang umiyak sa harapan ko.

I let her cry but not to much dahil sa buntis siya. Hindi maganda para sa kalagayan niya ang sobrang pag-iyak. She should be stress free but here she is. Telling all the things that might harm her baby and her.

"That's why I came here to you.." She said, she wiped her tears and looked at me.

I blinked twice in front of her. "M-may maitutulong ba ako." Nauutal kong ani.

She nodded at me but before she said something. Axel arrived and pulled me up. "Kaenu...why are you talking to her?" May galit sa boses niya pero kanya itong pinigilan. I don't like this atmosphere because Axel looks so serious right now. Bakit bigla na lang siyang dumating without telling me that he would come? And he was supposed to be at work.
