Said I Love You But I Lied (Imee Marcos X PRRD X Leni Robredo)

Said I Love You But I Lied 19

"Baka naman pang lola!"

"No its not" the psg get it from the car
I asked rep. Lani where to change my outfit

I wear this red off shoulder bodycon dress up to my knee
"infairness maganda ang napili ng lolo niyo"
I went out the room

He's waiting
"See! You look more beautiful hon"
"Bakit ka nandito"
"I wanted to be the first one to see you wearing that"

"Bagay ba?"
"Yeah"
I look at my stomach
It's getting big, hang on baby

He held my stomach
"when will I see my baby here?" he asked
"Bumalik na nga tayo doon"
I smiled at everyone we pass by

"Senator barbie doll" biro naman nila
"They're all dancing sweet dance na mayor oh" they tease him

"Let's go" Rod
"Ayaw"
"Let's go" he repeated and hold my hand

We went up the stage again and slowly dance with the rhythm

I put my hand on his nape and I let him hold my waist
"ang layo mo man hon"
I rolled my eyes
"nakakahiya they're all eyeing us"

"alam na din nila"
He hugged my waist kaya wala na rin akong nagawa kundi isandal ang ulo ko sa dibdib niya

"Hon alam kong napakalaki ng kasalanan ko sayo sana mahanap mo sa puso mo ang pagpapatawag. Kahit hindi man sa ngayon pero sana balang araw mapatawad mo pa ako. I'm really sorry for what I did. Pangako ko, babawi ako sa lahat ng nagawa ko. Mahal na mahal kita imee"

"I know" naiiyak na sagot ko

"I can't live without you" bulong niya sabay halik sa noo ko
"Minahal mo ba siya?" tanong ko
He suddenly stop talking

"let's stop this" hindi niya ako binitawan
"oo minahal ko siya noon. Noong panahon na siya palang mundo ko. Pero ngayong nakilala kita mas na realized ko na mas matimbang parin ang pagmamahal ko sayo kaya nandito parin ako sa harap mo at hindi susuko hanggat mapatawad mo"

I look at his face
"make sure you won't get tired Rod, pagsisisihan mo kapag nawala ako sayo." it's not just me, I have your baby with me
Gusto kong sabihin

"I will never get tired of you"
I smiled and hug him again

Pagkatapos naming sumayaw sinalubong naman kami nila pia

"Sen. Imee lumalaki ka ha!" Pia
"seriously! Ngayon mo pa talaga sasabihin yan!"
They laughed

"we're seeing a baby bump from a far, my hindi ka yata sinasabi eh"
"hindi ba pwedeng busog lang"  snob ko naman

"Talaga? Huwag nga kami Imee" Cynthia
"Ewan ko sainyo kung ayaw niyo maniwala edi huwag"
"OK inumin mo ito" Pia handed me a wine

"Why? I'm not drinking tonight"
"Buntis kasi kaya ayaw uminom"

"Manahimik nga kayo baka my makarinig sainyo"
"Eh totoo naman"
"Crazy! It's not that! wala talaga ako sa mood uminom tonight"
"talaga lang ah"

"Heh ginugulo niyo ako balik na ako kay Mr President" rason ko naman
"Ano yan bumabakod ka?"
Natawa naman ako bago bumalik kay Rod
We stayed for another hour before going home

Matutulog na sana kami ng tumunog ang cellphone niya
I answered it immediately

"Love please talk to me" its leni
I put the speaker on

"Love please kausapin mo naman ako mamamatay ako kapag wala ka" he look at me

"Go on, don't worry I can finance your burial" mataray na sabi ko
"Senator Imee?"
