Miara's Mistakes: Part Two

(263) - September 21, 2020

Allegations
Primo's POV

"Sir, we really apologize for this but we don't want any commotion," takot sa sambit ng manager habang nakasunod sa akin. I just realized that my strides were long for him to keep up. He's almost running now.

"I understand. No worries," I assured him before going inside the elevator.

I knew that the manager is frightened of me and I want to assure him that he has no reason to be scared. But then, my mind is full already and I don't even know what to prioritize first.

If it wasn't for the manager, I'd still be asleep. I didn't do much yesterday but I feel so exhausted. I've been worried about what happened. Wait... no, I've been worried about Miara's reaction on what happened.

I'd be lying if I claim that my confidence didn't falter. I don't think I've been this scared before. Nakakatakot kung ano ang pwedeng maging reaksyon niya. I was scared... so damn scared that she'll break up with me. Na wala na akong babalikan pa.

I know that she trusts me. She's struggling on that aspect but I can see her trying. And it's heartbreaking to think that she thought I did things behind her back. It's hard enough for her to trust people... and then that happened.

I want to undo what happened but it's all done. What Cleo did is on another level. If the situation was reversed, and Miara and I switched positions, I'd surely think that she did things too... and just the thought of it is enough to make me feel like shit.

"Sir, she's at the parking lot," anang manager nang bumukas ang elevator. "As per your order, we didn't let her in... but we still couldn't shoo her away."

I nodded at the manager and he took it as a cue to leave. I felt my heavy steps as I neared the parking. I didn't have a hard time finding her because it was her voice that I heard first.

"Primo, what the fuck?! A restraining order?" Cleo screamed as she neared me.

I have no plans talking to her but I didn't want the staff to face problems because of her. If I let them handle this, she'd just threat her way in.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?!" She looked like she was about to attack me but I raised a brow at her.

I don't hit women and she knows it. But she surely remembered that if she ever fights me, it'd be a waste of her energy.

"You've crossed the line so many damn times, Cleo... you're lucky that I let them slide."

I couldn't even describe what I am feeling towards her. It's like there are too many emotions circling within me that it's hard to name them.

I am furious and disgusted but, at the same time, I pity her. I pity the people who is blinded by her spotlight.

"You have shitty values and it's making me question why you still have supporters." My words probably hit a spot. I shouldn't have said it out loud but it was too late.

As much as I want to stay calm right now, I think I've had enough. I've been kind and understanding enough towards her.

She scoffed. She looks ready to fight but tears were pooling at the corner of her eyes. "Is that how you see me now? Did your oh-so-angelic girlfriend brainwash you?"

I heaved a deep breathe, reigning my control. "I don't need to be brainwashed. I have facts, Cleo... and you... you are disappointing. I don't know why you're still doing this."

Thinking of Miara's face calmed me down. I don't know which sorcery made it possible but it was effective. My insides are still in chaos but not as worse.
