Till The End

Chapter 2

CUT!"

At last!

Caleb gave me a quick kiss before he withdrew his self, while Xavier gave me a butt squeeze.

"You're really amazing," Caleb said near my ears.

I just give him a weak smile. Drew, the director, gave me a robe. I went to the bathroom to clean myself. I hope that I can also cleanse my soul.

If ever I die right now I'm sure I will go directly to HELL.

I spend half an hour scrubbing myself, hoping that all the kisses and whatever sexual abuse I made myself into will be removed. Well, it's my fault on the first place. In frustration, I went out the bathroom and changed my clothes.

New...

I looked decent...

I hope...

Just like the dress I am wearing I can also change myself.

Can I still change my life?

I stopped from thinking when Drew put his hands on my shoulders. I faced him.

"I'm sorry about-"

But I cut him by putting my index finger to his lips.

"It's okay. That's what our bosses want. We're just following orders."

"But..."

I look at him in the eyes.

"How many times will I have to tell you that I'm alright?"

He remove his hand on my shoulder as a sign of resignation.

"But it doesn't feel right. It's my fault. If not because of me, you're not here. You're not doing things that's against your will."

I put my hands to his cheeks.

"Drew, that's why I thank you. If not because of you I will probably be dead of hunger. If not because of you I will not be having hope to live my life. Aside from that my contract is about to end. I will be free at last."

He put my hands to his lips.

"Still, it's my fault. I snatch your freedom. I diverted you to the life that is right. I feed you things that are not right"

"Don't forget that I ate those things, I chew them. So please don't blame yourself."

"You are a tough woman."

"I know and you know why I'm doing this."

"Right. How was he?"

"Right now he is okay. But we need to go back to the hospital later."

"You want me to go with you?"

"No, its okay I can do it."

"Here"

He gave me an envelope and I already know what it is. I immediately put it in my pocket.

He eyed me as if I've done something wrong.

"What?"

"Are you not going to count it?"

"What for? I trust you."

I gave him smile that makes him frown.

"You gave me a bucketful of trust that you already entrusted your life to me."

He put his hands to my waist as he pulled me to his embrace.

I rest my head to his chest listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat. Why is it so good in his embrace. It feels like every beat of his heart is making a music. I just realized that his already swaying me, as he sings the song that was different from what was playing in my head.

You change my life.

You clean me up.

You found my heart.

Like only a woman can.

I close my eyes as he sings it. This was not the first time that he sings to me.

Why can't I teach my heart to love him? Why can't I open my heart to him? Why do I keep on waiting for a man that I don't even know if he will be coming?

You pull me up.

When you know I'm sad.

You knows your man

Like only a woman can.

I felt his lips touch my head.

Like only a woman can...
