CHAPTER 38

“Hindi na, Ricky. Hindi ko naman kailangan ‘to eh.” Maya nervously said.

“No. You need to. Trust me on this, Maya. I swear, after this, you’ll feel a whole lot better.”  Richard said as he held Maya’s hand lying on the steering wheel. “Akong bahala sa’yo, Mrs. Lim.” He said with a smile.

Maya nodded slowly and turned her head back on the road. It’s been three months since they got married. They’ve been living happily at Richard’s house. After their honeymoon, Roberto and Esmeralda announced that they are going back to China so that she and Richard could have the house by themselves. As the new CEO of LAS, Richard was really working hard for what his father had started and also for his company family. It might’ve been just a few months but Richard clearly showed that he’s the aircraft fitted for the job that his father talked about.

As for Maya, she still works at her position. Richard even offered her a much higher position but she didn’t accept it. She doesn’t want the employees to think that even though she’s the CEO’s wife, she will be promoted immediately. And besides, she’s working in her dream job and married the man she love the most. What more could she ask?

Maya might not want to ask for anything more but Richard has this one thing he kept hoping to happen. He wants Maya’s phobia to be healed. Yes, he made a vow to take care of her forever but it’s just killing him to see Maya suffering from it. So now, he set his mission – he’s going to heal Maya. He read this article once where a person suffering phobia needs to face his fears so that the fear will be lessened. And that is what he’s planning to do today.

Richard woke up early morning to prepare breakfast and after he made sure that Maya is happy, he decided to break the ice. He told her his plans which Maya disagreed to. But after a few words of encouragement, Maya finally obliged. Yes, she wants to see herself healed but mainly because she can also see Richard being hurt every time that her phobia attacks. But now that she’s already at the driver’s seat of Richard’s BMW, she just wants to bust her door open and run outside.

“Ricky, ayoko talaga. Paano kung magasgasan ko yung sasakyan mo?” Maya said.

“We have money. Pwedeng ipa-repair.” Richard calmly answered.

“Paano kung masira ko yung sasakyan mo?”

“We’ll buy a new one.”

“Eh .. pa-paano kung maulit ulit yung nangyari dati? Yung –“ Maya was unable to finish what she is saying as Richard’s lips landed on hers.

“Don’t say that, okay?” Richard said as he caressed Maya’s face. “I won’t let anything happen to you. And I promise, hindi na kita aawayin kapag nagmamaneho ka na.” He kissed her head. “Just give this a try, okay?”

Maya gulped then turned to Richard. “Sure ka talaga?”

“Positive.” Richard replied with a smile. “Go on. You know the drill. And Maya, I completely have faith in you.”

Maya sighed and gave her husband a reassuring smile. She inserted the key and the car came to life. After letting go of one deep breath, she shifted the handbrake and went on to drive. Maya stopped abruptly when she was almost outside their garage.

“Ricky, ayoko na.” She said.

“What?” Richard amusedly said. “Are you kidding me? We’re almost outside, Maya.”
