His Obsession (Series #2)

Chapter 24

They said if a person truly admires you for what you are, they make time to ask you how was your day. In my existence, yearning for a true and depth love wasn't just about giving each other symptomatic shattered of feelings but it was found within your will and your passion to mutualize your empathy together.

And that's what when I cannot read what's in Zacheo's head right now. Hindi ko alam kung bakit naririto siya at umaakto siyang concerned kung may tumutulo man sa kisame ng bahay at kung may mga daga man rito.

Him being concerned was out of the line. As we closed the gateway of our paths, the decision I made was good enough to not allow him to enter again and make havoc to my dying love.

I don't want to revive it. Because if it does...the broken pieces of glass that being thrown to my wicked beings would probably stuck and made things hard for me, as if it was before.

Kaya habang maaga pa, I should make actions for it.

"Mr. Monterde. It isn't your problem anymore if we tend to experienced what you have said earlier..."

Naramdaman ko ang pagbuntong-hininga niya at ang agaran na pagtitig niya sa'kin. I suddenly shifted my sight to avoid his gazed.

I admit, my feelings for him didn't change. It still longing for his hard embraced. It still waiting for him to held me again even though it was just his obsession.

"Hindi mo na kailangang itanong pa sa'kin ang mga bagay na 'yan. It's already my property now... We're not your obligations, to be clarified."

I saw how his Adam's apple moved. He gulped. Ilang minuto niya akong hindi sinagot. He's thinking about something. Parang may gusto siyang sabihin sa'kin pero hindi niya masabi-sabi dahil nahihiya siya o dahil hindi lang siya sigurado.

"T-the kids..." he trailed off. Nakayuko lang siya at tila'y nagdadalawang-isip kung ipagpapatuloy niya pa ang sasabihin.

Napasinghap ako sa sinabi niya. Two words. It's just two words but it affects me so much. Bakit pakiramdam ko ay alam na niya na anak niya ang kambal?

Because if he knew it already, hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko, kasi hindi pa iyon pumapasok sa isipan ko. Huwag na muna... I am not yet ready. Hindi pa ako handang ipagtabuyan niya kami dahil hindi niya kami matanggap kasi may asawa na siya.

Maaaring ikasira ng pagsasama nila ni Sabrina ang pagdating ng anak namin. He's name will be stained, and due to my affection towards him, I don't want all of that to be happen.

Mas gugustuhin ko pang, ilayo ang mga anak ko sa kanya, than to see him suffer because of our mistakes.

"Sino ang tatay nila?"

"Si Uriel. Sino pa ba?" Pagsisinungaling ko. I noticed how he closed his fist and how he gritted his teeth. At kung hindi ko pa alam na hindi niya ako mahal, baka aakalain ko ng nagseselos siya.

I smiled. "Atsaka bakit mo pa ba inaalam?" I asked again.

"I am giving you the chance to tell me the truth Charlotte."

His voice was calm but hoarse was visible with it. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ganon siya makapag-react.

"What truth? All I was saying was...a mere fact!"

"Huwag mo'kong niloloko..."

"I'm not fooling you. I'm just answering your question honestly."

Napahilot pa ako sa sintido ko nang titigan niya ako ng masama. His eyes was bloodshot, at kung kanina ay puno ng lambing at pagtitimpi ang nakita ko sa kanya, ngayon ay napalitan iyon ng galit at inis.
