Grayson took the car key from my hand. He initiated driving my car as we go to somewhere he's in mind now. At this moment, I don't care where he will take me. I'm just so happy now that I get the chance to see him, be with him . . . talk to him.
He stopped driving when we arrived at the NAIA. For a moment, I couldn't understand anything. Why are we here? Where is he going to take me? But when I looked at him to ask about that, he showed me a bottle full of pills that I bought back in Bohol.
"W-Why are you . . ." I gulped and couldn't continue what I wanted to say to him.
His jaw clenched. "I'm pretty sure that this bottle belongs to you, Summer." My eyes heated when I heard his voice calling my name. "No woman has ever entered my house aside from you. No other woman is going to leave this bottle behind in my house aside from you."
I looked away. "T-That was just a spare bottle of pills. I-I bought two of them."
He held my left arm as he made me look at him. At that moment, I wanted-so bad-to cry and cry because I missed his skin on mine. I missed him so much.
"Don't you dare lie to me, Summer!" His voice is rising already. "Why did you stop taking this thing? Why did you throw it away?"
I gulped. "Wala nga."
"Look me straight in the eye and tell me all the truth about this," he said in his baritone.
I took a deep breath as I tried to look him straight in the eye, like he said, but all my eyes did was cry.
"I wanted to have my own child too, Grayson. With you." I sobbed as his mouth parted. "Noong nakita ko yung family picture n'yo, yung portrait ni Love at ni Jenna na tinago mong mabuti . . . at kung gaano ka kasaya sa picture because of them, I wanted that same thing too, Grayson. I wanted a child of my own too . . . with you."
I sniffed and sobbed as I wiped my tears away.
"Nang makauwi ako rito, ilang pregnancy test kits ang binili ko at ni-take nang sabay-sabay pero lahat, iisa lang ang sinasabi. Negative! I couldn't accept that easily because I wanted it so bad. I even went to my OB and had myself checked just to be sure but there is nothing in my womb." My voice broke.
"Gusto ko ng anak sa 'yo para kahit na buo na ang pamilya n'yo ni Jenna . . . mayroon din ako ng bagay na mayroon siya galing sa 'yo. I wanted someone that would make me remember how much I loved you. H-How much you made me feel when we're together. Pero wala, eh. I was frustrated. 'Yun lang naman ang hiniling kong kapalit sa pagbitiw sa 'yo . . . pero bakit hindi pa rin binigay sa 'kin?"
After I told him that, hindi ko na magawa pang magsalita ulit ng iba dahil umiyak na lang ako nang umiyak. Remembering how desperate and lonely I was three months ago made me this vulnerable. Isang bagay lang ang hiniling ko sa buhay ko noong mga oras na 'yon. I want a child . . . but I guess it's not for me.
