"Mr. Marcos, Let's talk!!"
****
As soon as Sara said those words, Bong's palms started to sweat.
Sa totoo lang, wala siyang ka idi idea kung ano na namang kinakagalit ni Sara sa kanya.
In the back of his mind, kung tungkol kay Liza man iyon ay matagal na nilang napag usapan ang magiging set up nila for the public's eyes.
"Yes love, what is it?" kabadong tanong ni Bong.
"Anong what is it? Do you really have no idea kung bakit? o baka naman nag mamaang maangan ka lang? Bong naman.. we're too old for games!!! I trusted you!! pero bakit parang iba naman ang sinasabi ng bibig mo sa mga galaw mo? Hanggang kailan ba tayo magiging ganito? How long are you planning to keep me as your mistress???" Sara said in a shaky voice na parang konti nalang maiiyak na.
Gulat na gulat naman si Bong sa narinig. His eyes widened in surprise lalo na ng makitang nangingilid na ang luha sa mga mata ni Sara.
No doubt she is his kryptonite, his weakness,, and seeing her almost cry in front of him like that made him feel so upset and guilty.
"Bong!!! Ano ba!! magsalita ka!! I'm talking to you please." Sara said and this time, hindi na niya mapigilan ang mapaluha.
When Bong saw the tears falling from her eyes, hindi na din niya nakayanan. Without saying a word, he quickly grabbed Sara who was standing in front of him and grabbed her by the waist.
His head buried to her stomach as he spoke
"Love please... wag naman ganito. Please don't cry.. I'm sorry.. kung ano man ang kasalanan ko sayo, please forgive me.. I love you so much and it hurts me more when I see you cry" Bong said with the sincerest tone habang nakayakap sa bewang ni Sara.
When she heard him, hindi na din siya nagdalawang isip na sagutin ito. With both hands holding Bong's arms she said:
"Kung totoong mahal mo ako, pano mo nagagawa sa akin to? Do you honestly think I wouldn't find out that the divorce is on hold? Akala ko ba binibilisan mo na? ba't mas pinapatagal mo pa? And worse, you kept it from me!! Akala ko ba partners tayo? I thought there should be no secrets between us? Ano na naman ba to Bong? Bakit naman ganun? Bakit paulit ulit mo nalang akong sinasaktan? Kaya pala ganun nalang maka asta si Liza kanina!! She was acting as if she knew something I didn't!!! Kaya pala!!! Ano? kayo na ulit? tell me!!! for once be honest to me para naman hindi na ako umasa!! please naman.. maawa ka naman sa akin" She said in a cold tone with tears falling from her eyes at tanggal sa braso ni Bong na nakapulupot sa bewang niya sabay talikod dito.
Halatang nabigla si Bong sa sinabi at ginawa ni Sara that's why it took him a couple of seconds to react.
He just got back to his senses when he saw Sara grab her stuff and was almost out the door.
As soon as he realized that she was leaving, as fast as he could, bigla siyang napatayo at napahabol sa may pintuan.
She caught Sara's left arm dahilan kung bakit napalingon ito.
Then she spoke
"Ano? magsasalita ka na ba? What is the status of the divorce? totoo bang ikaw mismo nag request na i delay? answer me Ferdinand!!!!" she said and this time, mejo mataas na ang tono niya. She just simply couldn't help it. punong puno na siya
"Yes" but I...
Bong was about to explain but when Sara heard the three letter word that confirmed everything, her heart dropped. Para sa kanya, it was enough confirmation that Bong once again, fooled her at kung ano man ang rason nito ay parang hindi na niya matatanggap. After all that she's been through in the past year because of her love for Bong.
"Stop. tama na Bong. I've heard enough.. papakuha ko nalang mga gamit mo sa condo and I'll send it to the palace." she said in a tone as cold as ice while wiping her tears dry.
When Bong hear what Sara said, his eyes widened. Sa totoo lang, hindi niya inaasahang sasabihin ni Sara yun. Moving out of the condo meant that she was also moving out of his life.
All of a sudden, Bong felt fear.
Fear of losing her beloved Sara again and to be honest, di niya alam kung kakayanin pa ba ng puso niyang mawala ang pinakamamahal niya. Whatever he did, he had his reasons.
Reasons that Sara refused to hear anymore.
Coming from an overseas flight, he was definitely exhausted pero lahat ay gagawin niya para sa pinakamamahal niya so as quickly as he could he grabbed her from the back and rested his head on her right shoulder.
"Love.. please don't do this to me.. I can explain ayusin natin to please.. hindi ko na kakayanin pag iniwan mopa ako ulit.. love please.." Bong begged as his tears began to stream down his face.
But the cold and what looked to be a heartless Sara responded.
"Spare me with those crocodile tears Bong. Tama na please.. masyado mo na ako pinagmumukhang tanga! Alam mo ba, tuwing aalis ka kasama siya, halos sasabog na ang puso ko habang pinapakinggan ko ang speech mo? The shoutouts, the sweet smiles and your words of admiration towards her. Alam mo ba gano kasakit pakinggan lahat ng yun? I was trying to keep myself together the whole time pero sa totoo lang, gusto ko ng humagulgol.. I wanted to cry so bad pero bawal. Kung pwede palang mag bingi bingihan ginawa ko na. I did my best to be as understanding as possible pero ang sakit na..
Kaya please.. let's stop this habang pwede pa. Paikot ikot nalang tayo eh.. Paikot ikot, paulit ulit nakakapagod na." She said as she bowed her head and held Bong's arms to remove it."Love please.. No... lovee.. maawa ka please don't leave me..love, parang awa mo naman oh let me explain.. Look oh.. this house... this is OURS, this is my surprise for you and Diara.. please love.. don't leave" pagmamakaawa ni Bong na biglang lumuhod habang nakayakap kay Sara to stop her from leaving.
All this he did, with his suit still on.
The president was begging for the love of her life to stay.
"I'm sorry Ferdinand.. I couldn't keep up with all your lies anymore. Tama na..sobra na eh.. I'll take a leave of absence for a few days to move out of the condo and soon, I'll see you during our meetings Mr President." she said
"Love.. please don't do this to me.. don't be cruel please..maawa ka naman" he begged once more.
But unfortunately, she already made up her mind.
She was done.
So instead of answering Bong, she pulled his arms away from her waist, faced him, held his right hand and placed the 2 rings he gave her in his palm and closed it.
While he knelt on the floor with both rings locked in his palm,
She left...
She left him without saying another word.
She left him without looking back.
No explanations
No goodbyes
No weddings
No Sara and Bong.
