Her Secret Life

Her Silent Pain

-Lea's POV-

Bandang huli ay pinayagan din nila na matulog si Francine at Andrea kasama si Julia.

They are currently on their way home para kumuha ng damit si Andrea, while Aga's family are doing the same. Si Julia naman ay kasama nila dahil ipapahatid na lang nila ang mga ito sa driver at dadaanan na lang nila si Francine since on the way naman ang mga ito. Pinag aagawan na naman nga ni Francine at Andrea ang ate nila kung kanino sasakay na sasakyan si Julia. In the end ay nagkasundo din na sa kanila sasabay si Julia when she promised Francine and Andrea that they can stay with her as long as they want if they don't have work eksakto naman na three days na walang trabaho ang dalawa.

When they arrived home agad na hinila ni Andrea si Julia paakyat sa kwarto nito. Pupunta na sana siya sa kwarto nila upang magbihis ngunit pinigilan siya ni Rob.

"So Lea, kung hindi pa sumulpot ang anak mo ngayong gabi, hanggang kailan mo balak itago sa akin ang totoo?" Galit na tanong nito sa kanya.

"Rob, please not now. Andito pa ang nga bata! Mamaya na natin pag-usapan to." Pakiusap niya rito. Ayaw niyang marinig ng mga anak niya kung ano ang sitwasyon nila ngayon.

"No Lea, we will talk about this now! Tell me, pinakasalan mo lang ba ako because you can no longer have Aga because he married Charlene?"

"Ano bang klaseng tanong yan Rob? I married you not because of them. Ano bang akala mo sa akin? Walang sariling desisyon ha?"

"Hindi yan ang gusto kong marinig Lea! Tell me the truth, did you married me because you love me? Or did you even love me Lea?" She can't see any emotion on his expression.

"You want the truth Rob? I thought I did. I thought I could love you but you made it difficult for me to love you! Napaka hirap mong mahalin!" Sumbat niya dito, maybe this is the right time to end things with Rob since he was giving her the opportunity now.

"Akala mo ba hindi ko alam Rob? I know that you have another family in China. Alam kong nauna ang babae mo kesa sa akin at alam kong hanggang ngayon you are still seeing her diba? You are even living with them pero wala kang narinig sa akin kahit konti Rob. I tried keeping this family together for the sake of both our names. Kaya wala kang karapatang sumbatan ako about my secrets when you also have yours!" Galit na galit na sumbat niya dito. Matagal na niyang alam that Rob has another family, Pops and Martin saw them in China 7 years ago and she had him investigated that was when she found out, in fact Rob has a son who is now 20 years old. From what she gathered Rob's family is against that woman kaya hindi ito pinakasalan ni Rob.

"Now tell me Rob, why did you marry me? Did you even love me Rob?" Ibinalik niya ang tanong dito.

"My parents never agreed of my relationship with Sandra. When they found out that I invited you for a date when you had a show in China they want me to court you Lea, I admit I was really attracted to you that is why I pursue you but I realized I really love Sandra. My parents didn't agree, they gave me an ultimatum they said I get to keep Sandra but I have to marry you. Marrying someone like you is good for the business Lea." Mahabang paliwanag nito.

"I already know that Rob. Matagal ko nang alam, hindi lang ako nagsasalita because I have my own share of secret at ayaw kong madamay ang anak ko and I guess this makes us even. Maghiwalay na tayo."

"No Lea, my parents will disown me once they found out. Mawawalan ng mamanahin si Andrea." Pag pro-protesta pa nito.

"We both know that Andrea doesn't need your families money Rob. Or did you forget that you married an international star?" She said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry Lea, but I think I failed to tell you that we are not married, not legally at least. I insisted for us to get married in China because I falsified the documents." He looked at her guiltily at natawa naman siya. No wonder he didn't find out her deepest secret. Akala niya dahil lang sa China sila ikinasal kaya hindi nito nalaman that she is already married once.
