The Badass Girl in Whitehaven Palace

Chapter 46

"She's fine, Mr. Quijano. She just need a rest."

Naalimpungatan ako sa boses na 'yon. Iminulat ko ang mga mata ko at sumalubong sa akin ang puting kisame.

Why am I here?

I tried to reminisce the scene yesterday and all the pain that I have felt came back. Isa-isang bumalik sa 'kin ang mga masasakit na salitang binitawan ko kay Giovanni.

A tear secretly fell from my eye.

I hurt him. I hurt the man I could risk my life with. I hurt the man who could risk his life for me.

Napapapikit ako. I lost my consciousness after the young Silvestres vanished on my sight. Dala narin siguro sa stress at pagod.

"We can discharge her now, right?"

I saw a girl in a white unifrom. She smiled as she nodded. "Yes, of course."

Nagulat ako nang tumingin sa gawi ko si Dad. "Pull yourself together. We'll go home."

Home... Sa Spain?

Nang makaalis si Dad ay napapabuntong-hininga ako. Napapapikit ako sa mga mata ko.

This is the reality. We are over and I'm... going home.

I was still bothered by Giovanni's condition especially he got shot yesterday. I was still bothered... but here I am, still going home.

Natigilan ako nang may humawak sa kamay ko. Napamulat ako sa mata. I thought it was someone I had expected to come to me but it was the nurse.

I smiled bitterly.

What do you expect, Aaliyah? After hurting them? After throwing hurtful words to them, they'd still chase you? You're not a fucking gold for them to chase after you!

"Be strong. You have to be strong not just for yourself but also for the new life that you're carrying."

Napapakunot-noo ako, nagtataka sa sinabi ng nurse. "What do you mean?"

She smiled at me like she's happy for me. "You're pregnant, Miss Quijano."

My mouth gaped open, my eyes weren't blinking for a bit. Para akong naestatwa sa kinahihigaan ko.

H-How come that I got pregnant?

Napapapikit ako. Fuck! This is my fucking fault! I let Giovanni explode inside of me without using any protection!

Fuck it!

Napamulat ako ng mata nang maramdaman na naman ang paghawak sa kamay ko.

"I don't know what's happening but be strong, Miss Quijano." She looked around. "I didn't let Mr. Quijano know about yout pregnancy, I just feel like there's something wrong."

Tumango ako. "Thank you."

I am not yet ready to become a mother. Fuck! I was already on my legal age but I was still a fucking student! I still have a dream! I still have to fucking enjoy my life!

"Dad..." I averted my gaze when Dad looked at me. We're here at the airport, on our way to our flight.

I was still disappointed. I was disappointed at him. How could he do this to me?

I smiled bitterly.

Right! He never told me to end our relationship. He told me to drag them down. To get our money back. Pero nagawa na, 'di ba? Napabagsak na namin ang mga Silvestres, bakit niya parin pinabaril si Giovanni?

Wait... Si Giovanni nga ba ang pinapabaril niya? O ako?

"Don't talk to me yet. I'm still disappointed on you."
