HEARTBEAT #06
CAIAH's POV
Expectation can become a disappointment. And you wouldn't have a choice but to accept it 'coz what can you do? You expect too much and get hurt so much. You put the blame on others and get angry at them. But in the end, you know that it's always been your choice. You're the one who expected, no one can dictate you to do that. You're the one who hope, maybe because you really really want that. I didn't say that it's your fault to be disappounted on something that you expected. Maybe it's the timing or you can also say it's the destiny's way of telling you that it's not really meant to happen. And now I tell you, it's not wrong to expect too much just know how to accept things that are not really for you
"I just.. I don't know. Maybe I'm just disappointed because he promised to make it up to me? You know, this is not the first time that he did that. But this time kasi, he promised me. And that's what made me more disappointed" she said and wipe her tears on her cheeks
"File an annulment" I said while patting her back
She's sitting on my left while leaning her head on my shoulder. She keep on sobbing and wiping her tears that keeps on falling. It's just 7 in the morning when she suddenly barged into my room and hug me. And I just knew that something bad happened to her. After that, she quietly prepared a breakfast for me. And when I ask her while sitting in the living room, she suddenly cry hard
The reason is, Ian ditch her in their supposed to be date last night because of some business matters. She said that she only kept her emotions all through night and just avoided talking with Ian
"I-if only... I could really do that" humihikbing sagot niya
"Bakit naman hindi? He hurted you so much and he needs to learn his lesson" giit ko sa kanya
I'm actually just trying to make her realized how she loves him so much. Problem like this shouldn't be prolong and should be fix immediately in order to strengthen their marriage
"I love him so much!" Ngumangawang saad niya habang walang habas sa pagpunas ng mga luha niya
"Then talk to him and fix your problem" mahinahong suhestyon ko sa kanya
"Maybe later, I still have things to do this day" she said and fix herself
"Yoy sure, you can?" I ask with a bot of worry in my voice
She's very emotional right now and I don't think she can do his job properly with that state
"Yes. I just have to give this to Mr. Clemente. It's important because it's regarding to your book adaptation that will start next month so I really need to settle it now" she said while cleaning her face
Namumugto ang mga mata niya at namumula ang buong mukha. No matter how much I denied it, I'm very worried about her. She's a serious, but most of the time a joyful person the first time I met her. After years of being with each other, I noticed her changes. She used to be playful and carefree and it changed after she met Ian and it actually made me worried. Ian came from a rich family and his parents are not approved of their relationship
Lei is actually an orphan. She work so hard to finish her studies in able to provide for herself. Maybe that's one of the reason why Ian's parents doesn't approved of her being their only son's wife. Considering that Ian is half-Chinese half-Filipino. It actually made me mad but I choose not to meddle with their affairs unless Lei would tell me so. Until the day when Lei happily told me that they're already engaged and sooner be married. I was shock but I still support her because that's what makes her happy
They decided to tie the knot and they shouldn't just cut it just because of those small problems. Because I still believe that marriage is very sacred and should be the cherish by the two person who vowed theirselves to love each other until their last breath
