"Z-Zander." Gone is the love in his eyes. Where's my Zander?

"Don't you get it?" Matigas na wika ni Zander. "I don't want to be with you anymore."

"No. No. No." Akmang hahawakan niya si Zander pero lumayo ang lalaki. "Sabi mo mahal mo 'ko! Na ako lang ang mahal mo, Zander! Stop this nonsense now! She brainwashed you. Sa akin ka maniwala!"

Mapaklang tumawa si Zander at tila natakot si Kandisse sa klase ng ngisi at tingin niya. He has this devilish expression. "I have to say those words, so you would let me fuck you."

She felt like there was a knife that stabbed her heart, multiple times. "W-What?"

"I told you, I had you investigated a long time ago. I know your murder cases and drug deals. What to do, Kandisse?" He smirked then looked at her from head to toe then made contact to her eyes. "I never thought you are so damn good in warming my nights. Last night? It was a goodbye sex. I said those words so that you would let me fuck you many times for the last time. Kung hindi ko sasabihin ang mga 'yon, hindi ka papayag na angkinin kita."

"Zander, hindi totoo yan. Nagsisinungaling ka lang." Umaagos na ang mga luha mula sa kanyang mga mata. Nilapitan niya si Zander pero pilit lumalayo ang lalaki. "Mahal mo 'ko."

"TANGINA NAMAN!" Nagitla siya dahil sa malakas na mura ni Zander at tinitigan siya sa mata. "Heto, makinig ka." Bahagyang yumuko si Zander para magtagpo ang kanilang mga mata. "Hindi kita mahal. At lalong hindi kita pwedeng mahalin! You're a criminal, Kandisse. I won't let you taint my reputation in this society!"

Hindi siya nakaimik. Wala na siyang alam sabihin. Wala na siyang maramdaman.

"Do you hear me? I just want to fuck you that's why nagtagal tayo. You should go with your mother, she only wants the best for you. I am not the person whom you need right now."

Tulalang nakatingin siya sa kawalan at nagsalita, "Ayaw mo na ba talaga sa akin?"

"You heard me. I do not want you in my life anymore."

And so she left.
