One Deep Love

Kaius

I was so worried when she was left alone together with that woman inside the room. I know she would say that, but I kept silent. I don't want her to get mad at me in a situation like this.

"No! Let me go! Athy..! Athy!!" I called her name so many times but she just shut her eyes tightly and acted like she did not hear me. It fucking hurt, it was like she's so fed up with me.

"Release me! I have to go back to my mom!" I looked at zeke and shook my head, hoping he would stop and he did.

"It's okay, zeke. Don't underestimate your mom's power. She'll be okay." I said, trying to make my voice sound calm. It's more like a convincing word for myself by the way I said that. Hindi ko lang talaga mapigilan na mag-alala kahit na alam kong hindi na niya kailangan ng kasama para matalo si genesis.

I'm afraid I will lose her again, so I can't help it. But this time, I don't think I can keep on living if something bad happens to her. I don't even want anything to happen. Damn it.

I shut my eyes tightly to convince myself that she is going to be fine. I can't lose her again. Not now. Not anymore. I still have many things I want to do with her after all of this ends, so I can't afford to lose my wife.

I was going to propose to her earlier when we were having a good time, but I saw that she's uncomfortable. That was my chance to make her mine forever but that woman ruined the mood. It makes me want to strangle her neck until she is out of breath and dies.

They led us outside and shut the door loudly in our faces. Napa-buntong hininga na lang ako at tinignan ulit ang ikalawang palapag ng building.

What now? Don't say we'll go home and leave her here alone?

"Let's take them back to the resort first and then we'll come back to help her." Briana suggested.

"No! We can't leave my daughter inside with that woman! She's put a bomb on every corner of the building! Her life's in danger!" Tito Kaiser protested and turned his back on us.

"My lady wouldn't like it if you try to go inside now that she's sacrificed her own life for us to get out of that building alive." Malamig na ani ng bodyguard ng asawa ko na si jeremy. We saw how tito stopped and remained still. Napatingin ako sa kaniyang kamao na naka-kuyom at nakayuko siya.

I know, tito. I know how it feels like you can't do anything to help her at all. I am feeling it too. I feel so useless. I can't do anything as well. She decided it and we have to obey or else we'll really lose her.

"Tito, it's time to go." Tawag ko sakanya pero hindi siya gumalaw. Humakbang ako palapit sa kaniya at tinapik ang kanyang balikat hudyat na kailangan na naming umalis.

Sa huli ay wala na siyang nagawa pa kundi sundin ang sinabi ko at tumalikod na kami sa building saka nag-punta sa mga motorbike namin. Sumampa na ako at hinintay ko si tito na makasakay para maka-alis na kami.

I can't really do anything, can I? She keeps on saving me but I can't even repay her. I'm the man, I should be the one saving her and not her. I look like a useless shit.

"Let's go, Kaius." Nabalik ako sa ulirat ng tapikin ako ni tito sa balikat. Saka ko lang nakita na nauna na pala silang umalis kaya ay napa-buntong hininga ako bago lumingon muli sa building.

I'll come back for you, my moon. I promise.

I drove my motorbike away from that place and we used the passageway that we used earlier. While on the way, my mind was totally blank. I don't know what to think anymore. Possible thoughts came running into my mind and it makes me want to go crazy!

When we arrived at the resort, my mind was still blank. I didn't even notice that we've arrived already. Kung hindi lang ako tinawag ng kapatid ko ay baka hindi pa ako bumaba ng motorbike ko.
