Chapter 25

**

Limwell left his office a while ago. Raius called him through messenger and said there's something in. Hindi naman nagdalawang isip umalis si Limwell at iwan ako mag isa sa kaniyang office.

I yawned. I felt sleepy. I want to sleep but I know Limwell won't let me and it's still office hours. Hindi naman ako girlfriend ni Limwell para gawin ang gusto ko rito sa loob ng kaniyang opisina. We don't have labels, pinapakilig niya lang ako pero hindi niya masabi kung mahal niya pa rin ako.

He wouldn't blame me if I assumed things. He was like that before when we were still in a relationship. Kung ano ang ginagawa niya sa'kin ngayon ay ganoon din siya noon. I just want an answer... kung mahal niya pa ba ako. Kung susugal ko pa 'tong pagmamahal ko sa kaniya.

I put my head on the table. I started to stare at my wallpaper on my phone. It was him and me in Vigan. The Pagburnayan Jar Factory pictures were still in my gallery. I didn't delete even a single picture of us. Lagi ko 'tong tinitignan kapag namimiss ko siya.

I wake up when I feel someone poking my cheeks. I slowly opened my eyes and I saw Limwell with his serious expression. Nang tuluyan kong mamulat ang mga mata ko he gave me a smile.

"You look tired." He said.

I shook my head, "Not totally." I stared at his face, "Where have you been?"

He almost took three hours of time. Iniisip ko kung saan siya pupunta. Kung may meeting man siya ngayon ay dapat sinama niya ako dahil nagwo-work ako as his secretary.

He sat down beside me, he put his head on my chest and wrapped his hands around my waist. Here we go again. Ganito siya ka-sweet sa'kin pero wala kaming label.

"I'm with Raius. Don't think about something ridiculous." He exclaimed. "We visited Stan. You know their situation."

I took a deep sigh. I removed his hands on my waist. His face became confused. His eyebrows creased and gave me a look.

"We need to talk about this." Lakas loob kong sabi.

"What do you mean?" His forehead started to deform.

"Do you still love me?" I asked him a question. I don't want to think anymore and all I want is assurance.

He clenched his jaw before giving me a look. He didn't answer my question. I could feel the hot tears in my eyes.

"I don't want this kind of treatment, Limwell. If you don't love me anymore, just say it. Magtra-trabaho ako pero hindi na kita guguluhin."

I couldn't stop my tears from falling. I am hurt because I'm scared that he's just playing with me. He just wants revenge... or he wants to hurt me too.

He cleared his throat. "I'm still afraid... I'm scared that you'll just play with me and you're going to leave me again. I don't want to experience what I've been doing one year ago. My life sucked, I couldn't even know what to do with my life without you. I became miserable because every day I'm looking for you."

I was stunned. I could see the trauma that I've caused him. He slightly shook his head and looked at me with his teary eyes.

"L-Limwell..." I murmured, tila mamamaos ang boses ko sa kaniyang titig.

He held my hands. "Yries... I will always love you. Nagalit lang ako sa'yo pero hindi kita kinalimutan. I trust you. I kept telling myself that I need to trust you because I know one day you'll be back."
