Exploring The Unknown (SPG)

Chapter 38

Hux's POV

"Are you really sure of your decision, Hux?" Seryosong tanong sa akin ni Ms. Kara at tumango ako.

"Oo, nakapag-desisyon na ako."

Mangilid ngilid ang luhang nginitian niya ako at niyakap ako.

"Goodluck.." sabi niya.

"Sir Hux, let's go?" Tawag sa akin ng isang staff.

Sumunod naman ako agad dito at bumuntong hininga.

Tumingin ako sa mga reporters at umupo sa harapan nila.

Now, they have to hear my story.

"Good morning." Bati ko sa kanila at ibinalik naman nila sa akin iyon.

"So Huxlee, what's your story?"

Bumuntong hininga ako bago magsalita.

"It all started during senior high. We had a basketball competition, kalaban namin yung ibang school and it just happened na there was this girl, nakaupo siya sa bleachers.. she's really pretty. Baduy, pero I think I fell in love at first sight. I hit on her, I didn't know that I was capable of doing it.." ngumiti pa ako. "That girl is Alicia Grace Lopez." Bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko habang inaalala ang lahat. Parang ang sarap sa pakiramdam na ipaalam sa lahat ang totoo. Gustong gusto ko ipagsigawan ang pangalan niya. "At first, ayaw niya talaga sa akin. Pero in the end, nakuha ko din ang loob niya pero that time, fate was not in our favor. She left without a reason and no traces. I was hurt and angry.. Oh here's the catch, she was the first person who thought that I could be an actor, so heto ako ngayon.. pinatos ang pagiging artista and eventually started to like it. Then.. I accidentally saw her again. I thought I moved on pero nakakatawa kasi, na-realize ko, mahal ko pa rin siya. We got back together and that time, I got her pregnant." Nakita ko ang gulat sa mukha ng mga reporters pero pinagpatuloy ko ang kuwento ko. "Yes.. totoo ang chismis, she was pregnant but she never had an abortion. Nalaglag ang baby namin.. nakunan siya. It wasn't her intention. For the second time, we broke up.. she was really hurt. We went our separate ways.. and you can notice that I've been posting pictures of skies every year, on the same day.. the day that we lost our supposed to be first child." Nasaktan nanaman ako nung maalala ko ulit 'yon. "Tinanggap ko na.. hindi kami para sa isa't isa.. nabalitaan kong natupad niya na ang pangarap niya and proud na proud ako. For the third time, hindi nanaman inaasahan, nagkatagpo ulit ang landas namin. She got molested by the guy who also harassed Naomi.. Yes, Alice was the person I saved that night. Everything was unexpected.. even our come back.. So please, bash me all you want. I don't care. Pero pag-dating kay Alice at sa pamilya niya, ibang usapan na. Stop throwing hate on them. They're nice people.. Lastly, I'm going to announce that, I, Huxlee Valencia, will no longer be seen on TV because I quit." Muli nanaman silang nagulat sa sinabi ko. "Thank you for everyone who supported me throughout my career.. I promise you guys, I'll be forever grateful." Message ko sa mga fans ko at umalis sa harap ng mga reporters. May mga pahabol silang tanong pero hindi ko ito sumagot.

Nilapitan ko si Ms. Kara na umiiyak at niyakap ko siya.

"I'm really sorry.." sabi ko.

"No.. it's okay. You just did what you have to do. I'm really proud of you, Hux."

Alice's POV

"Lastly, I'm going to announce that, I, Huxlee Valencia, will no longer be seen on TV because I quit." Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Hux. Nanonood ako ngayon ng live interview niya with the press.

Is he really going to quit? Gagawin niya talaga yun para sakin? Hindi ako makapaniwala. Nanghihinayang ako for him. He really loves acting so I feel like it's not supposed to end this way.
