Get Me Out of Here (Completed)

Chapter 33

Chapter 33

People say that when you're in love.. the world you see becomes a better place, you only see the good things, you only feel the happy moments.

But that kind of love.. is an illusion.

Love is actually a war. You see the good and the bad things, but you will keep on fighting for what you believe. You will get hurt like you're in a battlefield, but you're a coward if you'll get scared.

That's what Dylan made me feel just now.. after I decided to just run away and he came running after me, begging me not to leave him.. I realized I'm being a coward.

I'm scared of the pain that I'm leaving him but he's so brave he's here now to stop me.. because he loves me, despite my flaws and all the bad things about me.. he loves me.. he's fighting for me.

"Abish is here.. she will tell you everything.." he stared at me hopefully.. his eyes glinting with tears.

Tuluyang bumagsak ang mga luha ko. I don't even care about the girl.. I'm not even leaving because of the things she told me..

I love him and I will always believe in him. Hindi ako naniniwala sa mga kasinungalingang iyon. I thought of leaving because I thought I am better alone, because I'm a coward..

He shook his head when he saw me crying. "So don't leave me, please?"

Tumango ako, hindi makapagsalita dahil sa pag-iyak. Lumapit siya at agad akong niyakap. "I'm sorry.." he murmured near my ear. "I'm sorry.."

I shook my head. He shouldn't be the one apologizing.. I am the one who's at fault.

"You can't leave me like this.. how could you?" he cried in my shoulders.

Humigpit ang pagkakayakap niya sa akin, I can almost hear the fear in his voice..

"I'm sorry.." I cried too.

It's so easy for me to think of leaving him.. but right now that he's crying and begging me.. my heart is breaking. I feel like I'm so selfish.

"I'm so sorry.." Umatras ako upang makita ang mukha niya at parang lalong nadurog ang puso ko.

He looks so sleepless.. his eyes are bloodshot.. and the wound on his face hurts me so bad like I can feel it in my own skin. I traced the fresh wound on his lower lip.. bukod doon ay may pasa rin siya. I cried so hard.

"W-Who did this?"

He shook his head. He pressed his forehead over mine.

"What happened, Dylan, please tell me.."

"I deserve this.."

He didn't have to tell me.. I think I already know.

Nilingon ko si Arkin na malamig na nakatingin sa akin, I looked at him unbelievably but Dylan pulled me back before I can even say anything.

"He was mad, it was understandable.." He can even justify my brother's actions.

Umiling ako. "Hindi mo kasalanan ang nangyari.."

"It's not your fault too, alright? Abish went to me, she wanted to apologize to you."

Dahil doon ay nilingon ko ang babaeng kasama nila Samantha at Sean. Our eyes met and I immediately saw regret in her eyes.

The look on her face told me that she wasn't able to sleep because of what she's done, and to be honest.. I don't know how to feel about her..

Galit ako dahil nawalan ako ng anak, pero para sa kaniya.. awa ang nararamdaman ko. I pity her because she had to do that.. I pity her because she resorted to such lies and actions. And I couldn't help but remember.. that I was once like her.
