Chapter XV - Blood
“THIS is the lawsuit papers that we’ll be sending to your husband while your divorce was on process. Since nakapirma kayo ng pre-nup, wala siyang makukuhang hati galing sa mga ari-arian mo and vice versa. The custody battle, I can assure you that we are in favor of that.”
Nakikinig si Ivella habang nagpapaliwanag ang attourney sa harapan niya. She was at Tang Law Firm, nirekumenda ito sa kaniya ng kaniyang ina. Kaibigan raw nito ang may-ari ng law firm na ito. She was talking at. Atty. Monica Tang, anak ito ng sinasabing kaibigan ng ina.
Yes, she finally signed their divorce papers at sa mga oras na ito, baka na-informed na rin ang stranged husband niya.
“Did you ever get betrayed by someone you love?”
Parang nabigla yata si attorney sa tanong niya.
“No...” she awkwardly answered. “I always think rationally, bago pa man nila magawa, uunahan ko na sila and I always have this strong personality, kaya siguro wala pa namang sumusubok.” anito. “Betrayals always come to the least we expected.” sabi pa nito.
“Marami ka na bang na-handle na ganitong klaseng kaso?”
Tumango ito. “Yes and believe me, a lot of opportunity will come to you after. This is not the end of you.”
“You don’t know that....” she murmured.
“Yes. I don’t.” sagot nito. “I just witnessed a lot of people suffer the same way you do but they’re the happiest now. One closed chapter doesn’t mean the end of your story.”
“Thank you.” she just said.
She knew she was just saying that to at least ease her pain. Maybe that’s her way to comfort her clients? She’s a good lawyer she heard.
She drove to her Mi Bella couture, she plans to lie low for a bit. Hindi muna sila kukuha ng custom made gowns and suit habang hindi pa handa si Ivella. Baka kasi makaapekto sa trabaho niya ang labang kinakaharap niya ngayon. She didn’t wanna disappoint her clients.
The divorce, lawsuit against her husband and their custody battle, paniguradong pagpi-pyestahan siya ng media. She is the first Roscente to encounter this kind of scandal. Dinaig niya ang pinsan niyang si Pen na nag-iisang anak ni Pantaleon Roscente, palagi kasing laman ng column sa newspaper ang pinsan niyang iyon. Because of her dating issues. Mas malala ang kay Ivella ngayon. It was a messy one!
Nakarating siya sa office niya. Pagdating niya roon nakita niya si Gia na napatayo sa kinauupuan nito nang maramdaman ang pagdating niya. Gia went towards her.
“Ve —”
She slapped her, hard. Hindi na nga nito nakuhang ituloy pa ang sinasabi nito dahil natigalgal na ito sa lakas ng pagkakasampal ni Ivella.
“How dare you come to my office.” mariing aniy.
“Vella, let me expla —”
“What will you explain?! On how you enjoyed fvcking your bestfriend’s husband behind her back?!”
“Hindi ko sinadya, Ivella!” she cried.
Pinanlakihan niya ito ng mga mata. Her burning anger was too much to handle. “Hindi sinadya? Nadapa ka tapos bigla na lang kayong sex ng asawa ko? Ganon ba ’yon Gia?!”
“Ivella....”
“Ano?!! Masarap ba?! Putangina, Gia! Masarap ba ang asawa ko?!”
She cried and cried in front of her pero walang awa na naramdaman si Ivella. She couldn’t believe that Gia would do that to her. She’s her one and only bestfriend since junior high!
