OBSESSED TO BELLA (Ongoing)

Chapter 25

After that confession of Lucas, I remained quite. I cannot absorb all the words he said, I feel like this is a dream. I am still floating in the air and remembering all the words he said. I never thought Lucas has feelings on me.

Andito ako ngayon sa labas para magpahangin. Para makapag isip isip. Lucas is still busy on talking about business to other business ventures.

I look at myself in the reflection of the water in the pool. The event is near in the pool area, I can also see Lucas inside. Minsan nakikita kong tumitingin din si Lucas sa direksyon ko.

Habang tinititigan ko ang sariling repliksyon sa tubig na nasa pool ay may nakita akong paang nakatakong na papalapit sakin. Tiningala ko siya at laking gulat ko na andito ang babaeng ito.

"So, how's the life of being an orphan to being a queen of a billionaire?" sarcastikong sabi ni Shiela "You didn't deserve Mr. D'lore, ampon" dagdag niya.

Nagtataka man ay tumayo ako at pilit kinalma ang sarili "I am not here to ruin this event Shiela" malumanay kong sagot sa kanya.

She raised his eyebrows "You are dragging down Lucas name bitch for your information. How can Lucas pick a girl like you" at tiningnan ako mula ulo hanggang paa.

Nahiya naman ako sa kanyang ginawa kaya yumuko na lang ako. I don't know why Shiela is picking on me. I didn't do anything to her to make her hate me like this. Even at school I never do anything bad to her but she bullied me everytime she has chance.

"Don't drag Lucas name to your illusions we woman. Stay away from him, or you will ruin his life like yours" umalis na siya pero bigla niya kong binangga kaya tumilapon ako papunta sa pool.

Bago ako nahulog sa pool ay nakita ko pa siyang dere deretsong umalis na parang walang nangyari. When I finally fell on the pool I realized that I don't know how to swim. Hindi ko na abot ang baba kaya pilit kong inangat ang sarili.

"He-hel-p" paghingi ko ng tulong.

Pero wala masyadong tao sa pool kaya hindi nila mapapansin kong may nahulog man dito. Naiiyak na ko dahil hindi ko maangat ang sarili pero pinipilit ko pa din iangat ang ulo ko para makahinga.

"P-lea-se h-he-help m-me!" naiiyak kong paghingi ng tulong.

My breath is almost lost, my body is already numb and I my arms are already tired. Then I realize is this my last chance of living. Pinaramdam lang ba sandali sa akin paano mahalin.

God are you finally ending my life since I am already feel love to someone that I didn't expect to love me.

Sa talambuhay ko ngayon ko lang naramdaman maging masaya, mahalin at piliin. Pati magulang ko hindi ko naramdaman lahat ng iyon. Pero bakit kung kelan naramdaman ko na iyon parang dito naman magtatapos na ang lahat.

I felt my eyelids are closing already, I felt my body slowly being swallowed by the water in the pool. I lost my voice to seek help from drowning. Until someone name pop up into my head.

"Help me Lucas"

Before I finally close my eyes, I saw a reflection of a man swimming in my direction. He pick up my body with my blurred eyes. I try to catch my breath but still can't.

"Breathe baby. Take a deep breath" Lucas worriedly said.

I am still closing my eyes and forced myself to breathe. While catching my breath Lucas is caressing my cheeks and motivate me to breathe more.
