3rd Person's POV
Ilang araw na rin ang nakalipas pagkatapos ng kanilang muling pagbabalikan ngunit maraming mga tanong si Clea.
"Akala ko kaya ko, pero bakit parang ang hirap namang labanan?" Tanong nito sa sarili.
Naguguluhan kasi siya kung ipaglalaban niya pa ang kanyang nararamdaman para sa binata.
"Hi, Miss. Clea. Nandito ulit ako." Nakangiting bati ng nurse na nag-aalaga kay Clea.
Araw-araw ang check-up ni Clea upang masubaybayan ang kanyang mental health. May ilang araw kasi na parang nawawala siya sa sarili.
"May turok ka na naman ba?" She asked her nurse, pouting. Ngumiti na lamang ang nurse bago ilabas ang gamot at ang sinulid.
Bata pa lang ay takot na si Clea sa mga sinulid. Pakiramdam niya kasi ay kapag naiturok na sa kanya ang sinulid ay hindi na ito kailanman matatanggal.
"Don't worry, hindi ito masakit." Nakangiting wika ng nurse bago injectionan si Clea.
Umiyak si Clea dahil sa sakit, dahil na rin walang anesthesia ang pagturok sa kanya.
Ng matapos ay biglang nanumbalik ang kanyang ngiti dahil sa pagdating ni Xion.
Araw-araw dumadating ang binata upang bantayan si Clea. He left his work for her. Alam nito kasing may pagkukulang siya sa dalaga kaya ang nais niya ngayon ay makabawi sa mga buwan na hindi sila magkasama.
"Hi love." Pagtawag niya sa dalaga. "Kumain ka na ba?" Tanong niya bago halikan ang noo ni Clea.
"Yes po, kumain na ako, hihi. Ikaw?" Kinikilig na tanong ni Clea kaya hindi maiwasan ni Xion na matawa ng bahagya.
"Wanna cuddle?" He asked her, looking at her eyes.
Her hazel eyes that made him fall in love again. Her eyes that can capture one else's attention.
She have that aura that can ease the surroundings.
Niyakap ni Clea ang binata at inayos ang kanyang pagkakahiga.
Hindi pa rin magaling si Clea mula sa trauma na naganap sa kanya. Kaya naman laking pasasalamat ni Xion, na nariyan pa rin ang nanay ng dalaga na laging nandiyan para alagaan ito.
"Nakakatulog ka?" His hoarse voice tickled her ear. The way he talk and the way he called her remains the same.
It is full of love, full of mystery, and full of longing.
The love that is unconditional, and for them loving needs time. A time that will create peace that will lead to serenity.
Maybe, what if maybe....
Maybe they found love in a wrong time?
"I love you." He whispered in between of their kisses.
Timeskip: After 2 months
"Emanuele Adrian Samson, is found guilty under the crime of rape." Pagkasabi at pagkasabi pa lang ng hatol ay hindi mapigilan ni Clea ang pagbugso ng kanyang mga luha.
Pagkatapos ng isang taong paghihintay, nakamit na rin niya ang hustisya na matagal na niyang hinihintay.
"He will spend 20 years in imprisonment with a fine of 100,000 pesos."
"Meeting adjourned." The judge finally replied.
After a long wait, they finally find justice.
Clea's Point of View
"Congratulations! We've finally gained justice." He yelled in excitement.
Yung gabi-gabing pag-iyak ko dahil sa mga trauma na nangyari ay nabigyan na ng hustisya.
Patuloy pa rin ako sa pagiyak.
"Thank you." Panimula ko. "Thank you for helping me." I cried, now having my breathing become more hard.
"But." I stopped.
"But? But, what?" He asked me. Confuse is visible in his eyes asking for the answer.
"I need to think this more carefully." I replied while looking at his confused face, not satisfied with my answer.
"What do you mean by that?" He asked me. Still smiling, even there's slight pain visible in it.
"Maybe, we loved each other at the wrong timing." I said. Even saying it makes me feel unconscious.
Hindi ko alam kung anong mararamdaman ko. Pero alam ko sa sarili ko na, ito ang tamang gawin.
Puro ko siya mamahalin kung ang sarili ko mismo ay hindi ko magawang alagaan dahil nga nababaliw na ako. Ano na lang ang mangyayari, iiwan niya ang trabaho para sa akin?
It'll just make ourselves more toxic as the time flies.
Kaya, alam ko, ito ang pinakamainam na paraan.
If I needed to break him again, I would do it.
Because if he's my light, then he deserve the best. And I am not that best.
"No, love. That was in the past. Wala ng hamon ang darating pa sa atin. Okay." He replied like he is also making himself calm and composed.
"But-" magsasalita na sana ako kaso hindi niya ako pinatapos.
"No. It's only the two of us." He said.
"Hindi na kita mahal." I replied, using my last card. Again, it was a lie.
I looked at his for the last time. Maybe this was the end of our story.
His eyes looked hurt, sad and calm.
I hate it, whenever I see him like this. Because, I know, he is hurt because of me.
"B-bakit naman kita mamahalin kung yung kompanya mo palugi na. Edi hindi ka na kikita niyan, pa'no ako makakahuthot ng p-pera." Medyo nauutal kong usal sa kanya. Kung pagmukukhain kong masama ang sarili upang malaman niya na mayroon pang mas importante kaysa sa akin, gagawin ko.
He tried to come near me, but I slightly pushed him away.
"No, you're lying." He smiled at me, it was like reminiscing the last time we broke up.
It was the same thing, but in a different situation.
"Why would I even lie to you?" I asked him, getting my confidence up to finish this battle.
"You did lie to me. Be-before." He said, nauutal na rin dahil sa tensyon na namamagitan sa aming dalawa.
"That was in the past. People change." I replied at him, while looking at his pained eyes.
He looked away from me, avoiding the gaze I was giving him.
"Thank you for sex and memories I guess." And with that, I shrugged my shoulders before going back to my room.
Without any hesitation, tears started to form at my eyes.
I hurt him, again. And this time, it's for the better.
Goodbye Xion,
Continue chasing the better future that is ahead of you. Goodluck in your journey my favorite boss.
Love, Clea.
