Kenneth's POV


       While listening to her side, parang gusto kong sapakin ang sarili ko. I want to beat myself for f*cking everything up.

She kept on saying sorry. But she shouldn't.

         Yeah, she also have a fault when she insisted about the marriage but I don't have the rights to do everything that I've done to her.

     All this time, I blamed her though it's me whose at fault.


She's sorry for doing things which have gone wrong. But those things are nothing compared to things I've done to her.


         D*mn!


I thought I'm broken. But seeing her now? Walang - wala ang sakit na nararamdaman ko.


           Seeing her now makes me regret everything. Seeing her in this state makes me realize something..

I broke someone I swore I'd protect. And it d*mn hurts me too.


        I also want to cry. But if I did, mas masasaktan lang siya.

Making me cry and hurting me are the two least things she will ever want.


              Nang makita kong tumulo ang luha sa mga mata niya, I realized how miserable she is.


She loved me. D*mn! She also loved me! Sh*t!


            Nang maging kalmado na ako ay nagsimula na rin akong magsalita.

Although what is happening now pains me as well, I think this is for the best.

           I've listened to her side and she should also hear me out for us to finally be free from our past.


"Maybe you never knew when exactly we first met. But I know in my heart, we met since day 1.." pagsisimula ko.

              I looked at her and she was looking at me too. Halatang kakaiyak niya lang din. But still, she's among the most beautiful women I've seen.


         "I can still remember once, I asked my Mom. I asked her when we first met. And she answered me, it was the day you were born. I'm just a few months older than you and when you were born, they immediately went to the hospital and brought me with them." pagpapatuloy ko.

                This time, nakayuko lang siya at nakatitig sa glass na nasa harap niya.


"And then we grew together. I became your knight in shining armour. I did not just make you feel special, Kei. You are really special that's why you felt like one. I don't want to see you hurt that's why I'm always beside you. I want to protect you. I want to make sure you are safe. I don't want to see you crying. I don't want to see you scared. I just want to keep you  with me.." I said while still looking at her. Medyo napapangiti pa ako remembering those days.


       "As you said earlier, halos hindi na tayo mapaghiwalay. You wanted to play barbie and I wanted to play toy cars. And just as when I was about to tell you na barbie nalang rin ang lalaruin ko, you will tell me na toy cars nalang ang gusto mong laruin. And so, ikaw na po ang masusunod." sabi ko pa rin habang titig na titig sa kaniya.
