I choose to ignore the suffering in his eyes and smiled bitterly.

"Para akong tanga na habol ng habol sa'yo, masaya na sa konting atensiyon na binibigay mo sa akin. I was a fool! Ni hindi ko man lang naisip ang posibilidad na ginagamit mo lang ako." I said with bitterness.

Napailing ako sa katangahan ko.

"Inamin kong pinagsabay ko kayo ni Roxanne but what she and I had, is not even a relationship! and I fell in love." he paused and looked at me, there's a desperation in his eyes. "I fell in love with you. Hindi lang kita mahal Cass, I love you so much it hurts! You are my life..hindi man malinis ang intensiyon ko nung una..but I never lied to you when I said I love you." puno ng emosyon ang boses na sabi nito.

Nanlalabo ang mga mata na nakatingin lang ako kay Alex, the truth in his words stung me.

Simula pa lang minahal ko na siya.

I trusted him with my heart.

Unlike him..

I was frozen in my spot na hindi na ako nakaiwas ng lumapit ito sa akin at niyakap ako.

"At sa tingin mo basta na lang ako maniniwala? o baka mas magaling lang ako sa kama kaya ako ang pinili mo." my voice unemotional.

It was all about $ex to him. He'll come to me when he needed a f*ck.

I heard him gasp but didn't say anything. I felt his body shaking and the dampness in my neck dahil sa luha nito.

"Let me go Alex." utos ko dito ng parang wala itong balak na bumitaw sa pagkayakap sa akin.

Pero hindi ko inasahan ang kasunod na ginawa nito, lumuhod ito sa harap ko ng hindi bumibitaw sa akin. Para itong batang nakayakap sa beywang ko at umiiyak na nakasubsub ang mukha sa tiyan ko.

"I'm sorry..I-I'm sorry." paulit ulit na sambit nito, nanghihingi ng kapatawaran.

Umiling ako kahit hindi niya ito nakikita. Pinilit kong magpakatatag kahit nahihirapan akong bigkasin ang kasunod na sasabihin ko."It's over Alex."

"No..no." tutol nito, his voice muffled with his sobs.

He looked up at me, his eyes brimming with tears, ni hindi na ito nahiya na umiiyak itong parang bata sa harap ng mga kaibigan namin.

"I can't let you go..I won't let you go." his voice trembling. "What do you want me to do para maniwala ka, to prove to you na mahal kita."

"Nothing Alex. I don't want you to prove anything because I just don't care."

Dave's POV

My swollen cheek throbbed but it's nothing compared to the throbbing pain in my heart as I listened to Cass' weep, her heart wrenching sobs echoed in my chest.

How many times I imagine this scene to happen when I'm alone and thinking of Cass. She, tightly wrapped in my arms habang nakasubsub ito sa dibdib ko. In my dream, she's happy, smiling, her eyes glow with love for me. Unlike this, heartbroken.

Ganito ba talaga pag mahal mo ang isang tao. Nasasaktan ka rin pag nakita mo ang mahal mo na nasasaktan. Lalo na pag naririnig mong paulit ulit pa rin nitong binabanggit ang pangalan ng lalaking nananakit sa kanya habang umiiyak ito.

I closed my eyes as I stroked her hair and murmured comforting words to Cass na malamang hindi naman niya naririnig. Dahil walang laman ang isip at puso nito kundi si Alex, na kahit sinaktan siya nito ay namamayani pa rin dito ang pagmamahal niya sa lalaki.
