NOT ALL WE SEE IS TRUE {COMPLETE STORY}

chapter 22

"Is everything ready? " Tori ask habang nag aayos ng buhok.

"Yes." Tipid kong tugon. Babalik na kami sa school ngayon.

"Good. Tara na. " She said and slightly smile at me. Yumuko lang ako at kinuha ang bag ko. Masama parin ang loob ko sa ginawa niyang pag sisinungaling sakin.

"Are you still mad?" tanong nito sakin habang pasakay na kami ng kotse niya.

"No. " Tipid kong tugon. She sigh.

"I already told you why I did that. " She said. I hum in respond. I hate her reason though.

* Flashback *

After having dinner with her umuwi na kami. I punished her for what she did at the restaurant. And we make love untill sunrise. It was the best day of  my life.

Nung umaga ay nag breakfast kami sa malapit na resto at bumili ng mga souvenirs, we rode a bike and swim. It was fun.

At ngayon ay dinala niya ako dito sa garden, hindi masyadong madami ang tao. Mga couple ang nakikita ko.

"How did you know this place? " I ask Tori while she's guiding me towards a small swing.

"Nakita ko lang nung nag bibike ako dati. And I decided to bring here the person who I want to spend my life with. " She said with a sad smile.

"And that person broke your heart? " Tanong ko. She shook her head.

"She didn't, infact ako pa yung nakasakit sa kanya. " She replies. I look at her and hug her.

"It's not your fault that Grace cheated on you. " I said and caress her back I heard her laugh.

"It's not Grace, silly. Wala pakong dinadala dito. " She said and pull away from my embrace.

"Ikaw palang. " Dagdag niya. She cupped my face and kiss my lips.

"Xianna, I want to tell you something. " Saad niya at hinawakan ang kamay ko.

"What is it? " Tanong ko at hinalikan ang kamay naming mag ka hawak.

"About the engagement. "

"Oh, yeah. I was meaning to ask you that. I forgot. " I said and look straight at her eyes.

"I'm.. I'm.. I-im not e-engaged. " She stutter.

"What?" I ask her confused.

"I'm not engaged. " Pag uulit niya.

"I heard you. What I mean is, why did you tell me that you are engage? " Tanong ko at binitawan ang kamay niya.

"I have a reason why I told you that. " She said and held my hands again.

"And what is it?" Tanong ko. Medyo naiirita nako. Bakit kaylangan niyang mag sinungaling? I hate liars.

"Because I want you to stay away from me. " Sagot niya at iniiwas ang tingin sa iba.

"Why? " Malumanay kong tanong.

"B-because, i-i felt something that I shouldn't feel. " Sagot niya, medyo namumula na ang ilong niya. Her eyes are watery. Hindi ako sumagot at hinayaan ko lang siyang mag salita.

"Naramdaman ko yung mga bagay na kala ko hindi ko na mararamdaman. And I don't want you near me because I'm afraid that I'll hurt you. I told you, may anger disorder ako. I can't control my self when I'm mad, I tend to hurt people eventhough I didn't want to. I only did that to protect you. " Pag papaliwanag niya. But it doesn't make sense to me.

"Ano bang nararamdaman mo? And why would I make you mad? " Naguguluhan kong tanong.

"Well, I feel happy when I'm with you. I feel alive and carefree you make me feel like I'm a teen-ager again. Pag kasama kita wala akong pake sa iba, I only want you. And I become possesive, gusto ko sakin lang ang atensyon mo. Gusto ko ako lang yung nginingitian mo. And I admit..... I'm scared. I'm scared of what I'm feeling because if gets out of hand I'll hurt someone. And I don't want that to happen. " Saad niya. She hug me and I rub her back, calming her down...
