EVERYTHING HAS TO END II

U. Promise

"actually po, anak ako sa labas" - ayden blurted out

My eyes widen for what i heard, i immediately look at her surprised.

But she just smiled at me.

"wala po akong dad ng lumaki ako. Mom ko lang po ang nag aalaga sa akin, 2nd year high school, nung namatay po yung mom ko. Dun ko po nakilala yung dad ko, pero dun ko din po nalamang anak ako sa labas...  Dinala ako ni dad sa bahay nila, pero nagalit yung step mom ko, dahil hindi nya po matanggap na anak ako sa labas ni dad, na mali po na nabuo ako. Naiintindihan ko naman po yung step mom ko, p-" sabi ni ayden

I dont know, pero every word comes to her mouth, is like a knives stabbing my heart.

How this tough woman?? That can fight anyone, has this side that no one know??

Even me!!

I hate her when we were on high school, because all the girls love her, and she's always in guidance because she bullied some guys.

I cant take it anymore, so i cutted her off.

"its okey baby. If you cant, its okey. We understand, i understand. No need to force yourself to tell us" - i worriedly said

She just smiled at me, and intertwine her hand on mine, while caressing my thigh using her thumb.

She inhale, and look at my family.

"pag katapos po nun, binilhan ako ng dad ko ng condo. At Dun nya po ako pinatira, dahil hindi nya kayang masira yung pamilya nya, dahil sa akin. Pinapadalhan nya po ako ng pera, para pambawi sa akin. Wala po akong magawa kundi tanggapin din yung pera, dahil yung pera po ng mom ko 18 ko po makukuha. Nag start po akong, mamuhay mag isa, at sinusuntentuhan lang ako ng dad ko. 18 ng makuha ko po yung pera ni mom, kaya nag business po ako. Pero ayaw ng dad ko yung business ko, kaya pinag trabaho nya po ako sa company nya" - ayden continue

Everyone was speechless, even me. But she just smiled, telling us she's okey.

No one dares to speak.

But i dont want it to be awkward, specially for her.

I need to speak, but what should i say, that cant hurt her feelings?!

I caressed her cheeks, using my other hand, that made her to look at me.

"but now you have me. I promise that im not gonna leave you, or even let you go ayden. So please baby, lean on me, okey??" - i said assuring her, staring straight at her eyes, telling her that im sincere

She furrowed her eyebrows, but smiled at me. I love everytime her eyes is on me.

*fake cough* - dad

we dont have a choice ni ayden, to break our staring contest, and look at my dad.

"anong business yun iha? At di tanggap ng dad mo??" - dad asked

Ayden, scratch her nape, while nervously bitting her lower lip.

Why your nervous baby??

"mga bar po, dito sa manila at ibang lugar" - ayden shyly said

"bar?? Like partying?? Drinking?? That kind of bar??" - Rainalyn surprisingly asked

I furrowed my eyebrow more when i saw ayden gulped.

"oh really????" - railyn asked

"invite us minsan!!" - Princess said

Ayden eyes went wide for what Princess said

"di po ba kayo galit?? Na yun yung business ko?? At andito ako ngayon? Pinapakilala ni saicey sa inyo??" - ayden confusingly asked
