We Could Happen

CHAPTER NINE

It's been a week since Aireen left Cebu but she never heard a word from Jacob after...
"I missed him so bad"

"He is a person that has a listening ear for you and where you can spill all your problems without being judged, where that person tries to be the best for you and make you happy every single way he can, even though he isn't perfect he tries to be perfect for you just to make you happy and feel good" She thought

When a person makes you happy you start to feel warm inside, your heart starts to glow and give you wonderful feelings inside and you know you want more, you started to get addicted to this person but it is commonly known as ''being in love'' and it is true, when you're in love you don't want anything else than be with the person you're in love with all the time and try to make this person as happy as this person makes you happy "and He makes me happy..." Aireen said.

She continued reading her Sydney Sheldon's book when her phone rang..

"Hello? who is this"? She said...
"Hi, I'm your future husband" The caller replied
"Okay, I don't have time for this shit! bye!" she shrugged
"Hold on, It's me Jacob."
Aireen: "omg! is this really you?
Jacob: "You missed me?"
Aireen: "Nope"
Jacob: "Nope means yes."
Aireen: "Sino ba yung nag imbento nyan?"

"You know what Aireen?" he paused, the reason why I didn't text or call you is that I just want to make sure about what i felt for you.
Every moment I was with you it was like a dream, the way we could talk the talk, how the connection between us was so strong from the beginning, that every night we smiled together when we imagined everything we wanted to do with our lives.

Aireen remain silent...

"And i think it is just an infatuations" He continued..

Aireen doesn't like what she's hearing from him..

Aireen: "What do you mean?! what about that kiss?"
Jacob: "It's just a kiss Ai"

Aireen felt too much pain after hearing those words from him.

"What the future will bring to you is happiness, I know it and I won't stand in your way for you to find it because I wish you all the happiness in the world even though it means that I can't give it to you, but my heart will never forget you and the memories we shared here in Cebu." Jacob Said..

She hang up the phone..

when you find someone that makes you happy even for a very short time,and gave your heart to him but knowing that he doesn't feel the same kills me.

"This is where it ends" Aireen Cried for pain..

The next day...

I wake up not ready to face another day, not ready to go to hell known as office, not ready to face him. I slowly stumble out of bed and into my bathroom, i look into the reflection to see a girl. She doesn't look like me. Her hazel eyes look tired and puffy, her dark long hair looks flat and ugly, and her smile isn't there anymore, just a frown. I look away and undress myself. I step into the hot shower and stand there, letting the drops of water lightly burn my skin. I feel a tear fall from my eye as i think of what Jacob said. I turn the water off, wanting to forget about that. I make my way to get dressed and some how prepare for the day.

I dressed in a pair of blue jeans, an old navy t-shirt and my converse. I look into the mirror and sigh. I put my dark hair up into a pony tail and leave, feeling somewhat satisfied with how i look. I grab my bag and make my way towards the bus stop.

I stop walking when i get to the bus stop. I saw my ex. Laughing, smiling, acting as if nothing happened. As if he didn't hurt me. I slowly walk toward the bus stop and stand there queitly.

"Hey babe, how was your weekend?" he comes up to me and puts his arm around me. I flinch and step back. "I..it was fine Zach" I say. "Cold?" he asks, with that smirk, the smirk he had on him when he..he forced me to give my virginity to him. "Stay away from me" I say coldly, trying to keep my cool. "excuse me?" he asked confused. "I..I said stay away. we're done" I reply. I hear a few oohs from his friends there.

I sigh in relief and step on sitting next to my friend Rebecca. "Hey you okay, you look scared." Rebecca asks. "Yeah I'm fine." i reply with a small smile.

I'm sitting in my desk when my thoughts go back to that night. Zach pushing me down after i said no, him slapping me across the face, sending tears to my eyes. him ripping my clothes off, and hitting me again after i tried to get away, him entering me and calling me names, me going unconcious. I feel another tear fall and quickly wipe it away. How could he do this, I thought he was trustworthy, i gave him my heart and he..he shattered it. The bell rings for lunch break. I wait for the other employees to scurry out of the office. I make my way to my locker when i stop in my tracks. Zach is leaning against my locker door. His brown hair falling over is dark eyes. I remember when i fell in love with that Man. And now, I fear him and hated him for making me for a fool for years. he cheated on me ang get everything I have.

And her thoughts came back to Jacob. He is the one who made me forget evrything. And I don't blame him if he doesn't like me. I have nothing to give him.

I slowly start to turn when i hear his voice. "Stop right there" he says, anger in his tone. I cringe and slowly turn to face the monster that hurt me. "W..what?" I stutter. "What makes you think you can dump me you whore?" he asks, approaching me. I back away and end up tripping. "Because of what you did to me! you cheated on me!" I say. "Yeah? and what might that be, ya gonna tell the whole World?" he asks, as he pins me to the floor. Tears begin to form in my eyes. I knee him in his junk and quickly get up. "Stay away....you're a..a rapist." I yell. His eyes widen and he gets up to hit me? I don't know but he is stopped by a woman who want's to know what the ruckus is. "Fuck you you bitch" he says coldly. I run to the girls bathroom and fall against the door. I cry and cry before I hear the bell ring. Two more hours, just two more.

My shift ends and I decide to go home immediately, to mainly avoid him. I am thirty minutes away from home, when it begins to rain. This day just gets better and better. I make it home and run to my room, dramatically throwing my self onto the bed (something Disney princesses taught me). I change into my PJs and lay back down. My thoughts wander back to Jacob again. I curse myself for thinking about that and slowly drift to sleep..
