ATICUS

" Your drunk, ihahatid na kita."  sabi ni Sander sabay bawi sa alak na hawak ko.

" Hindi ako lasing, I can still drive."

" Is that how Ali affect you?" iiling-iling na sabi nito.

Si Sander lang ang kasama ko ngayon. Zen is nowhere to find, out of coverage ang phone nito. Kagaya ko rin si Zen, he is chasing Elle. Hindi man namin alam ang buong storya nilang dalawa naniniwala akong mahal talaga nito si Elle.

But my situation is worst compare to him. Ali is starting to build a wall between us, kanina sa opisina para akong may nakahahawang sakit. Ni hindi niya ako magawang tingnan and its killing me. Lalo na ngayong laging nasa paligid si Jared.

I wanted to hug her and tell her everything but my stupid pride is stopping me.

" Pare, hindi solusyon ang alak sa problema mo. Why don't you talk to her and explain your side."

" Do you think she will believe in me? Have you ever been inlove?" mahina kong tanong.

Natahimik si Sander at ilang sandali rin ang lumipas bago nabasag ang katahimikan. Sander is a cassanova but he never told us his story.

" Gusto kong sapakin ang sarili ko. Everything is falling apart for me, a week from now the contract will become null and void."

" Then talk to her, hindi yong nandito ka lang para magpakalasing habang si Ali malamang ay kasama na naman si Jared."

I looked at Sander grimly. Kulang nalang mabasag ang basong hawak ko sa higpit ng hawak ko. Malamang magkasama nga ang dalawa.

Jared and Ali known each other for quite long. Hindi ako manhid para hindi makita kung paano nito tingnan si Ali.

" I'll go home."

"Ihahatid na kita."  Sander muttered.

" I can still drive."

I was of no destination, hindi ko alam kung saan ako pupunta. I want to settle everything between me and Crystal before facing Ali.

My hands seems to have its own mind as it is heading to Crystal's place. I knocked twice before she opened her door.

" Ken..lasing kaba?" She look so beautiful kahit mukhang nagising ko ito.

" Nagising ba kita?"

" Okay lang, pasok ka." She looks so innocent but behind the pretty face is a spoiled and bratty Crystal.

" I need to tell you something."

She never said a word para bang inaarok nito ang sincerity ng bawat salitang lumalabas sa bibig ko.

" When you left, I waited for you. 5 years akong naghintay like what you promised that you will come home to me and you did. Pero sa loob ng limang taon, I've been with different woman and I never fell in love until that charade happened."

" What are you talking about, Hon? may pagkalito sa mukha nito.

" I'm inlove with another woman. I never meant to break my promise. I know.."

" Stop! You are just drunk. Maybe we can talk about it tomorrow."  she said calmly.

" Please. Listen to me, I wanted to be fair to you."

" Fair? How could you ever think of it. I left catwalk because of you and your calling it fair."

Kung kanina kalmado ito ngayon ay bakas ang galit sa mukha nito.

" Is the woman your referring is your bitch secretary?"

" Don't call her like that. She is a decent woman." inis na sabi ko.

" May babae bang disente na pumapatol sa pag-aari ng iba."

" Please Ken. I know you love me, babawi ako sa panahong wala ako. Naguguluhan kalang kasi siya lagi ang nakikita mo pero nandito na ako and I wont leave again."

" Crystal. It's too late." mahina kung sabi.

" It's not true! hindi ako papayag akin ka lang. Your always mine Ken and no one can take you from me. Not that bitch.!

She's starting to become hysterical. I saw tears in her eyes, alam kung nasaktan ko ito but I don't want to pretend. Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero si Ali na ang mahal ko.

" Don't cry please." I hugged her.

" You're beautiful and carefree. Makakita kapa nang higit pa sa akin.

" No! Ikaw ang gusto. Ikaw lang Ken." she sounded so childish. Mahigpit ang yakap nito sa akin na para bang takot itong bitawan ko.

" It's you who left me. Kung tutuusin kasalanan mo kung bakit nangyari to. So please try to understand. Hindi na tayo mga bata." Tinanggal ko ang pagkakayap niya sa akin.

" I hate you Ken. You'll regret this, hindi kayo liligaya remember this day!" may banta sa boses nito.

" One day you will understand me." tumalikod na ako. Bago paman ako makalabas narinig ko pa ang sinabi ni Crystal.

"When you walk out of that door, there will be no turning back."

I just continue walking until I reached the parking area. Pinakiramdaman ko ang sarili ko. Nauwi sa wala ang paghinhintay ko kay Crystal pero wala akong nararamdamang pagsisi sa ginawa ko. I feel relieved and I wanted to talk to Ali.

I'll do everything, everything to win her back.
