Sugar coated Pepper (Completed)

73: Sorry

Salt's POV

   

I can't bare to talk to her anymore kaya mas pinili ko na lang umalis. Sarado ang isip ni Honey, she was blinded by her love towards Pepper. Nakakalimutan na niyang mahalin amg sarili niya, but i don't wanna be like her. I want to be happy even without Sugar.. Dahil kung ipipilit ko pa na mahalin niya ako, mas lalo lang akong masasaktan. I have to free myself from being hurt. And this is my first step, i will tell them the truth.

 

Kriiiiinnnngggg...

 

Kriiiinnnngggg...

  

"Hello.." i answered my phone without looking who's on the other line, nagmamadali ako. Kailangan ko nang makausap si Pepper bago ako maunahan ni Honey.

  

["it's me.. Pepper."] with that i slow down the car and checked my phone. Si Pepper nga..

 

"What is it? I'm on my way.." i said as i continue to drive. I don't intend to befriend him. Para sa akin, kaagaw ko pa din siya kay Sugar.. It's just.. I have to tell him the truth, para sa ikatatahimik ng lahat.

  

["i can't meet you today. I have an emergency meeting.."]

  

Shit! Napapreno ako dahil sa sinabi niya. Kung kailan handa na akong sabihin ang totoo saka naman nagkakaganito."Alright then.." yun lang ang sinabi ko, agad ko ng tinapos ang tawag at iniliko ang sasakyan. I have no choice but to tell it to Sugar first..

Hindi nagtagal ay nakarating din ako sa bahay nila Sugar. Kinakabahan ako, hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon niya. Kilala na ako ng guard kaya di ako nahirapan makapasok.. I almost live here before..

  

Inalis ko sa isip ko ang lungkot, i have to do this.. Para maging masaya na siya, kahit masakit para sa akin. I took a deep breath and knock, di nagtagal bumukas naman ang pinto. But instead of Sugar.. It's Uncle Bernard who opened the door. "Nandiyan po ba si Sugar?" bahay 'to ni Sugar, bukod pa ang bahay nila Uncle Bernard. Pero lagi silang nandito dahil sa mga bata..

  

"Nasa taas.. Come in." he said, pumasok naman ako. I sat on the sofa, nagtaka ako ng naupo din siya."hanggang kailan niyo balak itago ang totoo?" kapagkuwan ay diretsong tanong niya.

 

"What do you mean Sir?" napaupo ako ng tuwid. Magkaharap kami ngayon kaya kita ko ang kaseryosohan sa mukha niya. He's a smart person, he is also one of the business tycoons in this country.

 

"You know what i mean hijo.." he sit as if sitting on his throne like a king. Somehow i felt nervous, anak na niya si Sugar.. And as a father he wants the best for his daughter. But the mere fact that he's asking those questions, there's a chance that he knows something."i know you're a good person Dylan.. But-- i can't believe you can do that."
