Forget You Not

Chapter 8

NUNEW'S POV

The whole ride in the elevator was all silent. I heard him sigh many times and still holding my hands tight but not in a way that I would get hurt.

We both went out of the elevator as he continue to drag me to his condo. He put the passcode and when the door open he drag me in and push me to the couch.

He was breathing hard trying not to burst out his anger towards me.

"God why are you making my life so complicated." He suddenly sxhouted that makes me startled.
"What did I do wrong to you Nunu. Tell me?" He shouted once again. But I look down on my feet as I couldn't look at him any longer.

Then he suddenly knelt down in front of me. He holds my thigh and look at me but I look away at him holding my emotions in.

"Do you regret what we did that night?" He asks, that makes me look at him immediately, and the look he's giving me makes the tears I was holding fall rapidly on my face.
"Why are you crying? Does that mean you did regret it?" and I look away again. God, how can I talk to him in this situation. I don't want to end things with us badly, but that's were we are getting at.

"I never regret wanting you Hia." as I found my voice and talked to him for the first time while shaking my head. "What I regret is wanting someone I can't..have" as I bawl in hurt I am feeling.

Zee looks at me unbelievably.

"Wanting someone you can't have?" He repeat what I said with his brow furrowed.
"Nunu if you want me this much. You can have me as much as you want." He said but I shake my head.

Then he hold my face and make me look at him in the eyes.

"I can't Hia.. I. I can't" I said

"I love you Nunew." He said that makes me speechless.
"Not just a friend. I love you more than just a friend could, more than anything in this world." he confess, I cried even harder with his confession. I never imagined him confessing this way. God why is he doing this to me.

"No..no. Hia please don't do this.. " I beg him to stop his confession while I'm covering my ears.

He hold my hands and try to take it out my ears.
"Don't you feel the same Nunu" as tears stream on his eyes.
Then slowly he closed the gap between us and kiss me, and I felt like melting on his kisses as I slowly responded to him.

"I love you" he whispered between kisses that's making me want to throw all my inhibition again, but suddenly I remember my grandfather and what he wanted before he died.

Without anything I push Zee, making him stop.
"Stop Hia.." but Zee didn't as he continued to kiss me.
"You have to stop this now." As I find the strength to push him harder.

"Why are you resisting on me Nunu" he said looking at me confused.
"Don't you love me. Just say it. Just say that you love me and we can stop this." He said, but I can't say. I'll be hurting him even more. I can't tell the words as I know he would be heartbroken in the end and i can't hurt him even more.

"I'm getting married in ten day and that would never change. Everything is set. So please stop doing this."I said wiping my tears away

"Please Nunu, baby I beg you. Cancel the wedding. Don't marry Max. If this is all about making your grandfather happy. This is not right. There's another way" He try to beg but my decision is final. I'll marry Max and that won't change.

"My grandfather's happiness is the most important to me, Hia. So don't beg for something I don't plan on changing" and I hold back not to look at him as I might cry and change my mind.
