Tormented.
---
BEING WITH HER is like pure happiness for him-it's like being in heaven. It's like all his dreams have come true. The woman he randomly met has become the center of his world. He's completely forgotten about his past heartbreak because of her.
Although he knows that he can be irritating at times, it's just his way of expressing his affection for her. He even brought her to meet his cousins in Aurora. He's head over heels for her and will do anything to win her over, even if it annoys her.
He loves Clarity more than he ever loved Cleah. His feelings for her keep growing stronger and deeper, like he can't escape them. Even though he understands that Clarity belongs in the typical business world and should be with someone from that world, he can't bring himself to let her go. He's so into her that he's gotten desperate and has resorted to manipulation to be with her.
Days passed...Clarity started asking him about his job, but he couldn't bring himself to tell her.
He knew he disappointed her every time he ran away and refused to talk to her about it, but he just couldn't. Kahit nararamdaman niyang may feelings na rin sa kanya ang dalaga, natatakot pa rin siya. He's scared that she'll lose her feelings for him kapag nalaman na nito ang trabaho niya.
He's been through heartbreak from being left by the first woman he loved, but with Clarity, he's not sure if he can handle it. It's an exaggeration, but he feels like he would die.
He'll do whatever it takes to keep her by his side until he's ready to tell her everything, until he's sure that she won't let him go no matter what happens.
He'll gather the courage to tell her everything when the right time comes, but that time never comes. Suddenly, she started acting cold toward him.
Akala niya ay mas lalo pang lalalim ang nararamdaman ng dalaga para sa kanya pagkatapos nitong maibigay ang sarili sa kanya pero hindi pala. Ang akala niyang mas lalalim ang relasyon nila ay hindi nangyari.
After that special night they had, the following days were pure torture for him...
Iniiwasan na siya ng dalaga. Natitiis nitong huwag sagutin ang tawag niya o kahit mag-text man lang sa kanya. Sa tuwing yayayain niya itong lumabas ay nagdadahilan ito.
He tried to be patient, but his patience ran out. He became enraged! He never flirted with anyone, he never gave her a reason to be jealous. He always made sure he had time for her. Yes, he lied sometimes, but he made it up to her.
He is not perfect, but he's been doing his best to be a good boyfriend to her. That's why he has no idea why she's suddenly acting all distant!
"Baka naman natauhan na kaya nanlamig..."
Napatiim-bagang siya. Mahigpit niyang hinawakan ang bote ng Red Horse saka nilingon si Jace na may madilim na mukha.
"Shut up, I'll kill you. I didn't even ask for your opinion," matalim niyang sabi na tinawanan lang nito.
"Cool ka lang, King. Masyado kang pikon eh," anito.
Nandito silang dalawa ni Jace ngayon sa bar ni Yllak-nilulunod sa apat na bote ng Red Horse ang kanyang pagkayamot at sama ng loob mula sa pagtatalo nila ni Clari nitong nakaraang araw at ang obvious na pag-ignora nito sa kanya kanina.
"Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala na si Clarity Gallego nga ang babaeng hinahanap mo." Si Yllak na nasa loob ng bar counter at nagbubukas ng pang-limang bote para sa kanya.
"Ginayuma mo lang yata 'yon kaya mo napasagot."
Halos umusok ang ilong niya kay Jace sa mga sandaling 'yon. Hindi siya natutuwa sa mga entrada nito. Napipikon siya.
