After everything that happened, Sir Josh chose to stay by Sir Ken's side. I really admire their relationship.

They keep staying even if it meant draining their whole system. I can't say the same for me and Justin. Eversince that day...we haven't talked a lot unlike before when he would talk to me passed 2 in the morning.

But now...he just reminds me of everything. Matamlay na din ang endearments niya.

I knew it. I am the problem.

"We should break up." I said then looked at his shocked face. "I'm sorry but... let's end this. Maybe we weren't ready."

"I-Iiwan mo rin ako? Kagaya ni Ken? Krista, I'm sorry if I was not being a good boyfriend to you. Please don't leave me...kailangan pa kita. I'm sorry, my time and attention is all yours now again. Please." He begged as if it was the only thing he needed in life.

"Sorry din...for being a burden." I said that made him gasp.

"Is that what you think? Sorry, babe." He said then took my hand. "Listen...I will meet your parents later. I'll make it up to you now. I promise. I'm sorry."

"Are you sure hindi ako ang problema? I can give you space if that's what you want."

"But I need you, babe. Please don't do this to me. Mali ako, hindi kita pinahalagahan."

He didn't let me leave his side the whole time. Even at work, he set up a google meeting just for the two of us para daw makita niya pa rin ko even on different floors.

I was about to leave to get some water when he asked where I was going. This side of Justin is the side I missed the most.

"Mom? Dada? Kuya?" I called then pulled Justin inside.

"Krista darling. There's someone here who wants to see you."

I stopped when I saw my ex boyfriend with my parents. We broke up years ago but my parents still see him as a close friend of mine when in fact he is not. He was an abusive boyfriend and a manipulative shit.

I never want to see him ever again.

I looked seriously at him then at my parents who quickly caught up with my expression.

"Get him out of my sight." I said while gripping on Justin's hand. "Mom, Dada I want you to respect my boyfriend, Justin, who came here to meet you instead of visiting his friend at the hospital. Get.Carlos.Out."

I wasn't spoiled but I always get what I want.

"But Krista I came here for you." Sabi niya at kinuha ang kamay ko at ang kamay na nakahawak kay Justin. "Can we start over?"

"Pre, distansya muna. Hindi na kumportable ang girlfriend ko." Justin said politely but demanding.

"Anong ingay- Oh, what a scene." Kuya said then went to Justin. "Wazzup, bayaw."

"Ahm...Carlos can we meet again another day?" Mom asked kaya pumayag si Carlos. "I'm sorry, Darling. Akala namin okay na kayong dalawa."

"It's fine. This is Justin, my boyfriend."

"You're the reason Krista hasn't been in the hospital again for more than 4 months?" Tanong ni Dada while shaking his hand. "Pasok, hijo."

"Ay hindi na po, bibisitahin ko lang po ang kaibigan ko sa ospital. Sinigurado ko lang na ligtas pong nakauwi si Krista." Justin said then looked at me. "Alis na ako, see you tomorrow." Sabi nito at humalik sa pisngi ko.

"Ingat, call me." Sabi ko at nginitian siya. "You three need to stop seeing Carlos."
