Can't Fall in Love Again

Chapter 8

JHOANA

"I miss you, sobra" sabi ko sa tulog na Nico

I'm visiting Nico here in the hospital

He's in a coma for almost a year now. Nico is my boyfriend at matagal na kami, until the worst night of our lives happened. He got into an accident at malala yung damage sa katawan niya kaya siya na comma

Flashback

"Alam mo na ngang gusto ka ng kaibigan ko Jho, tapos you just let him touch you?! He's so touchy Jho! Please lumayo ka naman sa gagong yun!" Nico

"That was just a hug Nico, yun lang!"

"Hug lang, gustong gusto mo naman. Jho I love you so much, pinagdadamot kita sa iba kasi akin ka! Akin kalang Jho" Nico at iniwan na akong mag-isa sa condo ko

Iniyak ko nalang ang sakit na nararamdaman ko. Nico's best friend likes me but I don't entertain him, I just accepted his hug para hindi ako magmukang rude at nakita yun ni Nico

Until I received a call from Nico's mother

"Nak Nico h...had an a...accident" tita on the phone

Present

According to the police, since galing sa bar si Nico before his accident happened baka raw may nag drug sa drink niya kaya hindi siya nakapag focus sa pag ddrive at setup yung accident. Hindi ko alam kung totoo man, pero pinaghihinalaan nung fam ni Nico na yung best friend niya ang culprit. Nico's best friend is Anton

"Please wake up na *sob* I love you" I said as I kissed the side of his lips

Naiiyak na ako kasi naiisip ko mga pinaggagawa ko sa buhay ko habang wala siya

He's too innocent to be betrayed

Nag stay pa ako saglit dito sa hospital before ako umalis

BEATRIZ

Nandito ako sa bahay ng parents ko kasi kinakausap nila ako for the campaign. Mag sstart na kasi ang campaign tomorrow

"So, since we're ready naman na for tomorrow's operation. I'm calling for a dinner night, I'll be the one to cook for the family" mom Det

"Yesss dinner night, oh Bea invite your friend Jho ha? Para makilala naman namin siya" dad Elmer

"Uhhh...."

"Hmm....I'll see kung magugustuhan ko siya as your friend, kaya invite her anak ha?" mom Det

Hindi na kami nag-usap ni Jho simula last night after ko siya ihatid sa condo niya. Pano ko 'to ngayon sasabihin

Na kkwento ko kasi kila mom and dad lalo na si dad talaga kung ano yung ginagawa ko or kasama ko ganun. Kaya nakwento ko si Jho as my newly friend pero hindi yung anong ginagawa namin ha? Haha

"I t-think she's busy mom, dad"

"Sige na, para makilala namin yung linigtas mo before" mom Det

They know kasi na si Jho yung sinabi ko sa police na nakidnap nun

"Ok, I'll see what I can do"

After naming mag-usap ng parents ko agad na akong nag send ng message kay Jho

Bea: Hello Jho, I'm going to your condo now ha? I want us to talk
