Hello elainie80. Enjoy reading this story in the KathNiel World. :) ♥


2013 ko pa natapos 'tong story na 'to. But I have it written on my notebook. Sorry talaga sa tatlong taon na paghihintay. Mahal na mahal ko kayo babies! 😘😘😘



Magmamadaling-araw na pero hindi parin ako makatulog. Kanina pa ako nakatingin sa kisame. Nagre-replay ang mga pangyayari kanina.


Everyone waited for my answer... everyone including him. In my periphery, I can see his way of looking at me. I can even spot the tears menacing from his eyes. Tita Iya and tito Victor are smiling proudly at their son. My parents are showing me expressions I cannot construe.


I gazed back at Yves. I know he's nervous even with his smile. Will I spend the rest of my life with him? I promised I will, didn't I? Yves was the only man I look up to before. I loved him more than anyone else. I promised to love nobody else but him. But those are all from before, all from the past. Everything has changed--- but...


"YES."I slowly uttered. "I will. I will marry you."


I cried my heart out as Yves slipped the ring through my finger. They thought that I'm filled with tears because of so much happiness. I'm crying because I've eventually made the choice of letting 'him' out of my life... forever.


We all make sacrifices. And I have made mine. My happiness isn't what matters most right now. Yves needs me. He loves me and I promised to be with him no matter what.


I closed my eyes to forget that scene. But I can't stop my mind. His eyes, his tears... they all are haunting me. Hindi maalis sa isip ko nang bigla siyang umalis. He ran out of the door. And he was crying.


I took the phone from the box. I dialled my number to call him. But all I can do is just dial the number. I can't call him. What will I tell him? That I am sorry? How bullsh*t of me! I can't be that selfish!


Kanina lang, ang saya pa namin. Hanggang ngayon, nararamdaman ko pa ang paghawak niya sa kamay ko, ang pagyakap niya sa'kin. I can still feel his lips on mine.


"Chandria. Ako nalang... Ako nalang ang piliin mo. Ako nalang. Mahal na mahal kita. Ang hirap-hirap. Hindi kita kayang pakawalan."


"Chandria. Ako nalang..."


I reflexively glanced at the clock on the bedside table and found that it's already quarter 4. I can already feel my eyes bulging. Stop it Chandria! Pinili mo 'to kaya panindigan mo!


Pero ang sakit pala. Hindi ko alam na maging ganito kasakit. Hindi ko kasi naisip na dahil sa desisyon ko, tuluyan ng magbabago ang lahat.


He's gone. And everything will not be the same anymore.

Ilang katok na ang narinig ko sa pinto pero hindi ako bumangon. I can't show myself to them in this disposition. Ano na lang iisipin ni tita? Na hindi ako masayang papakasalan ko ang anak niya?
