EpilogueThings happened for a reason. I believe , but I can't understand why.
"You had sex with my girlfriend?." puno ng pag-aakusang tanong ni kuya sa akin.
"I've told you already. She drugged me and everything happens without my knowledge."
Sandali siyang natahimik bago basagin ang hawak na baso ng alak. I watched it shuttered in the floor. This happens more than once but it was never my intention to be fool him. It was her girlfriend to blame. Maxine.
He met her while attending college in Manila. Noong nakaraang taon lang niya ito ipinakilala sa amin. He have told me a lot of things about her. Almost everything. And at first , I thought she was perfect. Magaling pumili si kuya ng babae. Excel in both inner and outside aspect. When I've seen her , I thought her that way.
Mabait naman talaga siya noong una. I treated her like my sister and she did the same. She's very fond of kuya. Kapag magkasama kami ay siya ang laging bukambibig nito at palaging pinupuri. Everything seem perfect until we all mess up. Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyari at bigla na lang itong nagbago. I notice but I never get the chance to understand why. Things happen fast.
Nagising na lang ako isang umaga na kasama siya sa kama nang walang saplot. I don't why it happened or how but it messed up my whole life. Nagalit sa akin si kuya maging sina daddy. Noong una ay ayaw nilang tanggapin ang dahilan kung wala ako sa matinong pag-iisip. I was drugged. Inayos namin ang gulo. I needed to apologize even though I haven't made any mistake. I was look down by them thinking I am cheater and a backstabber. Tingin nila sa akin ay isa na akong maduming lalaki.
They broke up and the news that Maxine and I are together , spread. Mas nagalit pa sa akin si kuya dahil akala niya ang totoo ang mga sinabi ko and I am. Hindi ko lang talaga maisip kung bakit bigla bigla na lang nagbago si Xine at kung ano ano na lang ang mga pinagsasabi at ginagawa. She's getting obsess with me. Palagi na siyang nakasunod sa akin at inaakit ako.
Brytte become distant to me. He's mad and hated me to the deepest to the point that he almost forget that I am his brother. He become cold toward me. I am to blame at some point but they can't judge me from feeling the same. It wasn't my fault. I never intended it to happen. I was young back then , believing almost what I heard. But what happened to me made me realize how cruel the life is for us to be kind.
In order to be numb of the mistakes and faults they are throwing at me. I choose to shut up my mouth , get silent like a cold dead. Nasa kolehiyo ako ng sumubok ulit si Xine na gawin ang binabalak niya. I was able to stop her though avoiding anything to happen. Dahil alam kong kahit sa ginawa niyang mali , may nararamdaman parin si Brytte sa kaniya. At ayaw ko mang aminin na kasalanan ko iyon , ayaw ko na ring dagdagan pa. Para iwasan na ako ni Xine at ng ibang babae na naghahabol sa akin. Dad arranged a marriage of me and one of the daughter of his business partner. Cassey Abigail Young. She's 18 that time. Though the marriage is arranged I never got to met her personally , I am not interested at all. I just give dad a nod of the marriage for my inheritances knowing that considering what had happened to me and Brytte , I'll definitely suffer the consequences. Ayokong mawalan ng mana kaya pumayag ako. No more. No less.
Pagkatapos kong makapagtapos sa pag-aaral ay bumalik ako sa probinsiya at sa halip na maghintay sa yaman na ibibigay ni daddy. I decided to make my own name. I bought a land and tilled its soil. After a year of running the business , I have met an unexpected success rate despite being a newbie. Bahagyang bumalik ang tiwala nina daddy at mommy sa akin nang dahil roon habang nanatiling masama ang loob ni Brytte sa akin.
My life is perfect. The fate mess it up. I become perfectly imperfect. I change and become a perfect cold man who think nothing but gaining success of his business. I had it all in my mind. Everything is planned. I'll die managing my business and bringing it to the spotlight. I don't believe in love. I don't fall for someone. I don't to any of that. I make my own destiny and it's all perfect. But the fate always has it's way to mess it up.
