Zenith's Pov

The day has come. We already passed freshmen year and I'm proud to say that Marthae and I have made it.

I'm also happy by the outcome of my hard works. I made it to the dean list, as well as Marthae.

4 more years to go, we'll finally have our diploma.. And I want to witness her walk past the stage, with a big bright smile after she'll receive the receipt of her hard work.

However, my smile faded the moment I saw the caller id on my phone, when I heard it rang.

My hands tremble and turned cold as I heard the message Hirayle informed me.

"I'm already at the Philippines. My dad told me that any time by now, we'll announce our wedding to some of dad's business partner.." Ang bilis naman yata?

I'm still in the process of accepting the fact that I am married, and now this?

No one knows how I silently cry every night and fix myself when the morning comes, to hide it to everyone that I am suffering in this shity situation I am in.

"Y-You can't be serious Hira—" But, I wasn't able to finish my sentence when I met the familiar orbs, owned by a woman who caught my heart.

By surprised, I almost dropped my phone and my reflexes immediately catch it. I immediately hid my phone after turning it off before she'll recognize who the caller is.

She immediately noticed that I am cold out of nervousness, so I did something for her to not bombard me with questions I am not yet ready to answer, and that is kiss her.

When I pulled away, I tried diverting the topic, if she wants to go to her escape place.

Although, she didn't agree and said she miss the shore. I was about to say something but restrain myself to do so.

I noticed that tito Karl are frequently following us whenever Marthae and I go outside.

Whenever that also happened, I can feel Marthae being uncomfortable and I know she can feel someone's presence eyeing at us, that's why I did my best to convince her to just go to her escape place. But, at the end, I let her for what she wants. I can't resist her.

When you're overjoyed, forgetting your surroundings— not minding the pair of eyes that has been eyeing us both, not minding what people might think and see— it really won't last long.

I was kissing Marthae, and the next minute, I found myself tearing, together with my heart. Hirayle called, he's back..

Ever since we weren't able to see each other, I always keep on missing her. Her scent, smell, touch, lips, and everything about her.

I know I told her that we won't be able to see each other in a week, but, I wasn't able to resist her the moment she called.

How I am sleepless and tired these days is evident on my eyes. I cried when I received her letter of resignation, but, I still approved it because Tito Karl and Hirayle was there when I received it.

It was against my will to let her resign. Still, at the end, I can't do a single thing to prevent her.

It was very evident, although I didn't let her asked further more. In the reason of, I don't want to break down in front of her..

One of these days, she'll finally knew that I am already married. I tried to forget the fact I really am tied already, even though it was just on a piece of paper, I was still tied.

By my overflowing emotions, something magical happened between us in her escape place. I overstep the boundaries for the last time.. Let my hands feel her upper part, for the last time. And let my lips touch hers, for the last time because I don't exactly know when we'll be able to do it again..
