***

(Cendo)

I fvcking want to break his neck! But even if I do so, it won't change the fact that Onyx loves him. I love Onyx, I have a permission to have her, but she loves Maniago, what's worst than that?!

"Damn!" Inilagapak ko na lang ng sara ang laptop ko, pero bahagya naman akong nagulat nang may tao pala sa harapan ko. Her hands are on her waist and she's raising her eyebrow. Tsk. What is she doing here anyway?

"Nagpapaka martyr ka na naman?" Mapang asar nya pa akong inilingan and made herself comfortable on my office's guest seat. Napailing na lang ako. I know, she intended to wear that fitted shirt na may mababang neckline, I wonder if she's wearing a brassiere. Napaiwas na lang ako ng tingin when she leaned in my table.

"The door's there Tiffany, pwede ka nang umalis." I said casually to inform her that I don't want her here. Not anymore. Tapos na ako.sa kanya. Same as she's done playing with me. We are already done. Kaya hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit pati rito sinusundan nya ako.

"What happened to babe, Cendo? H-indi na ba talaga pwede?" Nagsimulang magtubig ang mga mata nya, basag ang boses, she's wearing her vulnerability again. But it's her fault kaya hindi ko na magawa pang palitan sya. Sinira nya ang tiwala ko, sinira nya ang reputasyon ko. And Onyx already replaced her in my heart.

"Now you're asking me a question? Well, the answer is too obvious Tiffany. I'm done. We're done. The night I've witnessed how dirty you are, is the same night I stopped loving you. Love was replaced with disgust." Kahit ano pang sabihin o gawin nya, what's done is done. I can't keep her for myself. Hindi sya ang babaeng para sa akin. I hated her. And I still do up until now.

With my two eyes, I've witnessed how she cheated on me. Hindi na sya nahiya. She had sex at my friend's birthday party, with my friends brother, and worst is, at a freaking bar counter. Nag live show sila roon, hindi man lang nya naisip na nandun ako.

And I had enough. She cheated on me once, at ayoko nang maulit pa yun. It'll be more painful the second time around.

"I'm sorry for that babe, please just don't do this to me. Please, ako na lang ulit." Napailing na lang ako while thinking how desperate she is. Hindi na sya ang simpleng babaeng minahal ko noon. Air reached her head, naipon na yun dun and I don't think that she'll be back the way she is before, jealousy already eaten her up.

"I have no time for this. You may now leave." I said. Pero hindi man lang sya natinag. Napabuntong hininga na lang ako. I don't mean to be harsh, but I don't want to entertain her either.

"Y-ou really love that rag doll, right?" Pinahid nya ang mga luha and bitterly smiled at me. Ikinunot ko ang noo ko, who is she naming anyway?

"O-nyx. You love her don't you?" She then bowed her head while waiting for my response.

"Yes. I love her more than I've loved you. She's the right girl for me. I'll even fight destiny just to have her." Napangiti na lang ako habang naiisip ang hinaharap kasama ang babaeng mahal ko. Our family, gusto ko sya lang. I only want her to be my wife, and mother to my children. I would give everything just to make that dream come true. Maybe she loves Maniago, but sooner or later, she'll be mine. And there's no way na pakakawalan ko pa sya.

"But she doesn't love you. That's unfair!" She protested. Nailing na lang ako sa klase ng pag uugali at pag iisip nya. It doesn't even cross her mind that loving means not being fair, that love sometimes is martyrdom. You love because you love. Selflessness. Sometimes, that's the appropriate meaning of love.
