My Bad Half(COMPLETED)

45

"I feel like I'm sicked and tired of this fame Layla." Natural na nanlaki ang mata ko sa narinig. This is Carrick the EGO man, the I-want-it-all-fame.

"Are you okay?" Tanong ko habang kinakagat-kagat ang straw na nakalagay sa baso ko. Nasa malaking sala ako ngayon ni Carrick. Baka mali lang ang pandinig ko. I saw him smile sadly.

"I thought this is all what I wanted but I was wrong." He look so awful right now.

"Hey..Hindi ako sanay na makita kang ganyan. Tell me anong problema ng fiance ko?" Nagbiro pa ako pero mukhang may problema nga ang isang ito.

"There was a girl that I love. Whatever I am now it is because of her. She supported me in every aspect and decisions that I made in my life. But because I was consumed on this meaningless life I didn't notice, that I was never the person way back before. I was never the person that she love. Wala na akong panahon sa kanya and before I realized It was too long late....I saw her yesterday. On that moment I felt like I'm so tired. Like I'm so fed up."

"You still love her don't you?" I asked.

"No. Hindi na pero may na realize ako...that the most important in this world is love. That everything is meaningless without love."

"So?" Puzzled kung tanong.

"I want to be happy now. And I like you Layla." Napaawang ako. "Yeah I know you are shock but I really do like you. The moment that I laid my eyes on you, there is something."

"C-carrick. M-maybe you are just...look I d-dont know...okay what do you want?" I pin my eyes into him.

"Can we try? Can we make this for real? Kung Hindi mag work then be it. We will separate in different ways bit still magkaibigan pa din tayo."

"C-carrick y-you are everything that girls wanted but you know..."

"Because you still love Luvdix Klein? The ex one?" How the fvcker did he know that it was Luvdix, my ex.

"O-of course not!" I snapped.

"Then let's try. Prove me that you don't have any feelings left to your ex. After all wala naman mawawala sayo diba?" Napapikit ako.

"Okay let's give a try." Isang wagi na ngiti ang nakita ko sa mga labi ni Carrick at parang gusto kung bawiin ang kanyang sinabi.

"You know what? Sometimes you need to put a little spice in your life Layla. Trust me, everything will be okay."

"I don't know what's running inside your mind bacon and I'm starting to hesitate on my impulsive decision."

"Oh c'mon. Don't be...So its official. You are mine."

"H-hey we were just trying..."

"Yes try. It means you are into me and I'm into you. So you are my girl now."

"F-fine." Labas sa ilong na sagot ko. Not bad. Bacon is a good guy naman eh Hindi lang talaga halata.

"I will give up my career for you Layla, if things get work." Isa lang ang alam ko, seryoso nga si Carrick.

"Matinong babae ba ang umuwi nga ganito oras?!" Napaatras ako sa gulat. It was no other than Luvdix. Akmang lalagpasan ko ang lalake na nakaharang sa pinto ng hawakan ako nito sa kamay. Here we go again!

"You know what Luvdix pagod ako! So please let my hand go." Palagi na lang talaga kaming ganito. Kapag naku-krus ang landas namin hindi pwedeng walang sagutan na nangyayari.

"Sagutin mo ako, saan ka na naman galing? Hindi porket wala ang Kuya mo ay..." Natigil ito dahil sa pagtawa ko. Halos maluha-luha ako sa kakatawa.

"Stop! Why the hell you are laughing?!" Bahagya pa nitong niyugyog ang balikat ko.

"Gosh! Acting as if you are my boyfriend. Hahaha konti na lang at gusto ko ng maniwala na may thing ka sa akin." Nailing Kong saad.

"What if I am?'' Natigilan ako. Impossible!

"Then save it. Well maybe because your life is lonely Luvdix that's why you are acting like a possessive boyfriend of mine. You know what you should be better go date, believe me it will help hindi yung ako ang pinag aaksayahan mo ng panahon. You are in the marrying age na so better be looking for future bride." Payo ko rito. I can't believe that Luvdix now is barely stunned. Did I say something wrong?

"You want me to be own by the others?" He asked.

"Why not? You are a good catch Luvdix at walang aayaw sayo, soon you'll find someone will be with you for the rest of your life...maybe at that time me and Carrick are already married."

"You do really wanted me to marry someone instead you?" I'm so trying my patience here dahil nakakapagod ng makipagsagutan sa lalakeng ito pero parang kumulo na naman ang dugo ko.

"Mahal mo ba ako?" I asked. Halatang Hindi inaasahan ni Luvdix ang tanong ko.

"Yes. I told you I still love you." Mabilis na namang dumapo ang kamay ko sa pisngi niya.

"Liar. Kung mahal mo ako hindi mo ako basta-basta hihiwalayan Luvdix. Tell me ilang beses mo ba akong niloko? Ilang beses din naman akong nagpatawad diba? Kasi mahal kita at handa ako magpatawad kahit mali or tama ka man. Pero ngayon sasabihin mong mahal mo ako? Impossible Luvdix. Siguro naiingit ka lang kasi okay na ako ngayon kaya may balak ka na naman saktan ako. Hindi ka ba napapagod na saktan ako? Kasi ako pagod na pagod na." Naiiyak na naman ako.

"Oo naiingit ako sayo dahil sa loob ng limang taon parang okay lang sayo na wala na ako sa buhay mo, while me? I'm fighting with my life." Natigilan ako.

"I'm dying Ivanie." Napaawang ako.

"Is this kind of joke or trick para makuha mo na naman ako?!" Gigil kung saad.

"Sana nga Ivanie... Sana nga."
