Credible Love

Chapter 43

Drunk

My hair is a bit messy and unclean. While my blue tube dress is on me. I sighed heavily and went to the outside. Hindi ko na matingnan kung ano talagang itsura ng kwarto na ito. Ang sa akin na lang ay maakalis ako at kung sino man ang nakapulot sa akin ay salamat na lang.

I have a boyfriend.

Sa sakit ng ulo ko ay konte lang ang naalala ko. Ang tanging naalala ko ay nagtungo ako sa bar. May humalik at nahilo ako.

Agad akong lumingon sa side table at namataan ko ang larawan...ng boyfriend ko.

I feel relief. I am in his room and I still wearing my clothes.

I sighed.

In my cooperate attire, fresh from the company and it’s lunch time. I want to spend my day with him. Gusto ko rin makabawi kahit papaano sa hindi ko pagkaalala sa nangayri noong nakaraan.

The door went bang and I shows me Felix in his black coat on his arms. Pinaluwagan niya ang neck tie niya. Lumapit ako sa kanya at hinalikan siya sa labi nang mababaw.

“Hi,” I greeted him.

“I have something to tell you,”  diretsong ani niya.

I am attentive waiting for his words. He walked towards me and stopped in front of me. He closed his eyes for a while and touched my both hands. Pinagmasdan ko ang ginagawa niya at tiningnan ng maigi.

“What is it?”  I am now curious.

“Daddy talk to me. They want me to go abroad.”

He sighed heavily.

‘Well, that means they need you.”

“Well, that means it is hard to communicate with you. “

"Listen, Felix, if the company need you, I am here cheering you. Hindi naman ako needy na girlfriend. Ilang araw at linggo lang  yan, 'di ba? Hindi naamn siguro aabot ng halos isang taon?”

“I am now thinking about saying yes to this. Daddy offers me that he and Mommy will go but I refuse that one,” aniya.

Hinaplos ko ang dalawang kamay niya. Ngumiti ako at umahon siya ng tingin sa akin. Pabalik balik sa paghaplos ko.

“The company needs you. And I understand now. So please go. Ayaw kong ako ang maging dahilan ng pagbagsak nito. And who am I to stop yu for being a boss? Hindi  ako selfish na hahayan na may magugutom na pamilya. Go save them Ceo Felix Zayne Villanueva. Do your duty and save the company.”

He smiled and  hugged me tight after that.

I realized in my life to let go of people for me to be happy and for them to grow.

Tumingala ako sa  langit na may buwan na nag niningning. Ngumiti ako at hinawakan nang mahigpit ang champagne glass nabitbit ko ngayon. I am no tipsy but I can manage to walked away from this balcony

Ngayon ang flight niya patungo sa abroad kung saan nila pinatayo ang isang company.

I really don’t need to stop him for what he likes. Masyado lang siguro akong napuno noon at palaging ganon ang nangyari. Kung nag offer si Tita Gianna that means she never planned for something new about us. Tama na siuro ang ginawa niya noon.

I sipped again and looked down. Marami pang mga tao sa baba na akala mo hindi gabi.

It’s now ten o clock in the evening and people keep flocking. And busy partying from the other street.

I sighed and closed my eyes. Unable to uttered something for this. I am now in ease. Hindi na ako guilty. Matatahimik na ako at hahayan ko siyang lumayo pansamantala

I looked up and I saw an airplane passing by. While I feel relief and happiness at the same time.
