Chapter 32
Nanay ni Christian
JASMINE'S POV
Slowly, everything went back to me. Everything that I have been trying to escape. All of it.
Why is he here in front of me? Why? Of all people, why him? Am I that bad to keep tormenting me with all the things I've done in the past?
This is the cruelest revenge to me. My comfort person, my safe home, Christian is staring at me with blank eyes. He's so cold that all I can feel right now is how guilty I am, of hurting him so much despite all the good things he did for me.
"Oo, tama ka. Ako si CJ." He paused for a moment. "Please don't use this as an excuse to run away. It will delay the production if you will quit. Maaapektuhan ng malaki ang kompanya ng boss ko."
Pakiramdam ko may nagbabara sa lalamunan ko dahil hindi ako makasagot. Ang sikip sikip ng dibdib ko. Pakiramdam ko kinukusot ang puso ko sa tono ng pananalita niya.
"You can continue keeping your promise after this movie. After all, I am not planning on meeting you... pagkatapos nito."
Tumalikod na siya at humalo na sa dagat na tao. Habol na habol ko ang hininga ko habang iniisip ang nangyari. He confirmed it. He is CJ. And that story... was our story.
I was the girl in his story.
I couldn't believe what happened na hindi ko namalayang nakabalik na ako sa inn. Walang mas'yadong tao maliban sa ibang crew na nag-aayos ng nga gamit para sa first scene namin bukas.
I wanted to cry after that. It was so miserable to be with someone you intentionally hurt so much. Christian is too good, he never did wrong. Ako ang nagtatak sa lahat ng nasa utak niya ngayon. He was never a toxic boyfriend. He's such a greenest flag.
But I had to ruin him, so that he will be safe. I know it is wrong. I admit that I am at fault. Kaya pinagsisisihan ko 'yon, sa loob ng apat na taon. Ngayong nagkita kami ulit, pinaalala niya sa akin na hindi ko deserve na maging malaya sa lahat ng ginawa ko sa kaniya.
Hindi ko alam bakit sa lahat actress ay ako pa ang napili. Alam niya ba iyon? Is he cool with it? Or he's against it but couldn't say anything? Does everyone know aside from Mike? Mike seems to be Christian's manager.
"What a coincidence." I said sarcastically.
Unlike what Mike has said, Christian is still mad at me. Sinabi niya na wala na kay Christian ang nangyari, pero halatang halata na galit pa rin siya sa akin. Who wouldn't? If I were him, I woud be mad at myself too.
However, no one hates me more than myself. If he hates me so much, I despise myself. Everything about me. All of it. Kasama na ang pagiging actress ko dahil iyon pa ang naging dahilan para sirain ko ang katangi tanging pangako na sinabi ko sa kaniya.
If only I could just disappear any minute. No grandfather who's so controlling and manipulative. No heart illness that weakens me. No ex-boyfriend who I had to cause a tremendous pain. No reasons to hurt myself.
"You had me worried! Gusto sana kitang pagalitan kagabi pero nakita na kitang tulog kaya ngayon nalang!"
"Pasensya na Johnny. Napagod ako kaya umuwi na ako agad."
