Fixing A Broken Heart [Completed]

C17. Lesson Learned And More

Justine's POV

I felt heaven and earth shut on me when he dropped those words like a bomb. Muling nanaig ang katahimikan. Hindi na ako nakapag salita pa dahil feeling ko, lalo lang syang magagalit kapag nagsalita pa ako.

This night should not be like this. Full of tears and angst. I'm silently praying na kahit ganito ay maayos pa sana kami. Willing akong gawin ang lahat para lang mapatawad niya ako.

He heaved a sigh at muling nagsalita.

" I will never forgive you, Tin. Because I'm not mad at you. "

Napatunghay ako kay Marco. And I was welcomed by a smiling face. Na hindi ko mapaniwalaan.

" Hindi ako galit sweetheart. Alam ko na ang lahat bago mo pa sinabi. "

Napanganga ako sa sinabi niya. What? Hindi ko ma-absorb!

" Tahan na, sweetheart ko. " he cupped my face and wiped my tears." Hindi ako galit. I just want to teach you a lesson kaya pinakita kong galit ako.... Pero hindi kita matiis na umiiyak ng ganyan. " he sighed and looked at me seriously.

" R-really? " hindi ko makapaniwalang sabi.

" Yeah. " may kinuha siya sa may coat niya that made my eyes widened.

Natakip ko ang bibig ko. My handy-dandy notebook! Oh my God!

" H-how did you get that?! " I exclaimed.

Ngumisi sya sakin." Well, nakita ko 'to sa kotse ko last week. Siguro nahulog sa mga gamit mo. I read everything. The plot. The characters. My similarities with your hero. Our' progress' since day one. Lahat Justine. And to confirm my instincts I talked to Preiana and she told me everything. " he said grinning.

" What?! A-alam ni P-Prei na alam mo?...... Pero bakit hindi mo sinabi?? " and it's now my time na mainis. All along alam na niya?

" Because I want to teach you a lesson Justine. And I want you to be honest with me. Kung hindi ko ba nabasa 'tong notebook mo, hindi mo sasabihin ang lahat nang' to?" seryosong sabi niya.

" No. Sasabihin ko naman talaga. Actually, I planned na mamaya ko sasabihin after we celebrate because I don't want to ruin the night. Pero napaamin ako kasi..kasi sobrang naguilty ako sa effort mo to make me feel loved. " nahihiyang sabi ko.

Bumuntong hininga siya. Hindi siya agad nagsalita but I can really see sadness in his face.

" Tin, sweetheart. You should be honest with me. And you don't play with other's emotion... Inaamin ko na talagang nagalit ako but I chose to hold back my anger and hear some explanation. I was about to talk to you pero naunahan ako ng bestfriend mo dahil sindya nya ako sa office ko. "

He tucked my hair behind my ear and cupped my face.

" Wag ka ng uulit ha. Dahil hindi yun nakakatuwa. Makakasakit ka kasi. And learn to control your impulses, Tin. Prei told me that you come up with that idea because of your impulsiveness... Hindi iyon maganda, because so many bad decisions come from being so emotional. " he explained. But this time he's smiling at me.

" Sorry Marco. Sorry talaga. I was just so desperate about my dream. Hindi na ako nag isip pa. I'm really sorry. Hiyang hiya ako sayo ngayon. I feel like a worst girlfriend of all. How could I ever do that?" at muli na namang tumulo ang luha ko.
