HTN2: The Heiress is Back

THB Chapter XVI

"Saan ka galing?"

Tanong sa akin nina Cara, Dannara at Bridg pagkapasok na pagkapasok ko palang sa bahay. Oh yes. Napag usapan nga pala namin na mag gi-girl bonding kami ngayon dito sa bahay. How did I forget that? Tss. Dumiretso ako sa sofa at pagbagsak na naupo. They just follow me.

"Who's that guy?"

Cara ask while crossing her arms. Sht. How did they saw that? Hinatid kasi ako ni Xian dito sa bahay. Tumanggi ako dahil dala ko naman ang car ko but he told me na ipapakuha nalang daw nya ito sa driver nila mamaya kaya wala na akong nagawa.

"The car is very familiar. Tell me Thea Ysabelle. Tama ba ang hinala ko?"

Sunod na tanong ni Bridg habang nakataas ang isang kilay. Hay naku. I sigh before answering their question. Alam ko kasing hindi sila titigil until I tell them the story.

"Yes. It's Xian. What now?"

I ask. Napahawak naman ang mga ito sa ulo nila na para bang namomroblema. Nagkatinginan sila at nagtanguan kaya napakunot ako ng noo. I was about to talk when Dannara grab my hand and pull me until we reach the elevator.

"Hey! What--"

"Stop talking. Just wait until we reach your room."

Dannara said. Hindi nalang ako nagsalita hanggang sa marating namin ang kwarto ko. They pull me and sat me to my bed. After that, Umupo din sila sa harapan ko.

"Now, Tell us the whole story."

Cara ordered. I cleared my throat and started to tell the story from the start hanggang sa paghatid nito sa akin. They are just listening and staring at me.

"You still love him right?"

Bridgette ask. Hindi ako kaagad nakasagot. Cara tapped my shoulder. Alam kong alam nila kung ano ang totoo kong nararamdaman. They witnessed how miserable my life became when Xian hurt me. They know how much pain it cost to me. They know how my heart broke into pieces. And I won't deny it, I still love Xian.

"Yes. Pero hindi na pwede eh. Ayoko nang masaktan ulit. You all know how I suffered when he hurt me. He broke my heart into pieces and until now, I am incomplete."

I saw them sigh. I just continue.

"I've learn that relationship are like glass, Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together. Siguro kailangan ko nalang iwanan ang nakaraan."

"Love is taking risk Thea. Just take risk, If you win you'll be happy but if you lose, you'll be wise. Don't be afraid to take a risk. lagi mong tatandaan, Kakambal ng pagmamahal ang masaktan. If you don't feel hurt? You can't say that you're in love."

Dannara stated. Tumango tango naman ang dalawa. Should I really have to take a risk? What if masaktan ako ulit? What if iwanan nya ako ulit? Bigla kong naalala ang mga sinabi nito kanina bago ako bumaba ng sasakyan nya.

-Flashback-

"Thanks for the ride Xian. And thankyou for comforting me and yes--for the treat."

Nakangiti kong sabi sakanya. He just gave me a smile. I unbuckled my seatbelt and glance at him once again to say goodbye.

"So... Good bye? See you around."

I utter. I was about to open the door when he held my hand kaya napalingon ako sakanya.

"Thea.. I just want to tell you something."

I get my hand and let him talk. Call me rude but I just know my limitations. I do have my boyfriend and he has too.

"Sorry. Sorry cause I hurt you but please.. believe me, I really love you and till now... I'm still loving you."

I saw sincerity from his eyes. No Thea. He hurt you. He lied to you! don't believe him. He was about to kiss me but I immediately went out the car and uttered 'goodbye' without turning back.

-End of Flashback-

"But I can't. How can I take another risk if I still feel the consequences of the first one? Masakit parin."

This time naiyak na ako. Bridgette and Cara stand and hug me.

"Sshh. Stop crying Thea Ysabelle. Always remember that maybe, It's not always about trying to fix something broken. Maybe it's about starting over and creating something better. Just give it a try. I know you love him and he still loves you. We just want you to be happy Thea."

Yes she's right but how do I start? I wiped my tears and look at them.

"But I'm still hurting. Everytime I saw him all I can see is how he left me. How he hurt me. How he gave me so much pain. All I can see is the past. That bullshit past!"

"That's like a book Queen Bee. You can't start the next chapter of you life if you keep re-reading the last one. Learn to forgive and to forget. Are you going to be happy if you saw their life became miserable? If that so, We'll let you have your revenge. Just think about it. He's the only one who'll makes you happy. Just accept the fact then you'll see. You'll be happier than before."

Napangiti nalang ako sa katotohanang kahit na napaka warfreak, brat at arte ng mga kaibigan ko. They still know how to gave an advice like this. They still know how to be serious at kung may problema ka? They'll help you no matter what. I hug them tight and mumbled 'thank you' they hug me back.

Maybe they are right. Maybe I really need to give myself another chance to be happy. Maybe I have to try once more. But not now, I still have my boyfriend at kailangan ko munang mapatunayan na mahal talaga ako ni Xian.

Someone's Pov:

"Ouch! Let go of my hand ano ba?!"

Binitawan ko ito tsaka hinampas kaya napaupo sya. I immediately grab my gun and pointed it to her. I saw her eyes widened.

"You bullshit! Why don't you answer my calls?! Talaga bang sinusubukan moko ah!!!"

Napapikit ito at napatakip sa tenga nya ng iputok ko ang baril sa dingding. This girl really pissing me off!

"I-im taking a b-ath that time!"

She stutteredly utter. I just smirk.

"Get this girl out of my territory. NOW!"

Utos ko sa mga tauhan ko kaya madali nila itong hinawakan at kinaladkad palabas. I sat on my swivel chair and play my gun. I look at the picture frame on the other table and shot it.

"Bull's eye."

I murmured as the frame broke down with her picture. I blow my gun.

"No one can mess my plan! Just wait Thea Ysabelle. Just wait.."
