His And Her Circumstances (To Be Edited)

Epilogue

A/N: Nagkamali ako doon sa last update! HAHAHA! Kapatid kapatiran 'yon. As in inampon lang 'yung babae or inaanak siya ng magulang ni Seymour, hindi talaga kapatid. Kapatid lang nailagay ko, kaya ang dating tuloy ay magpinsan sila. Mygosh! I'm so sorry! 😭 Pero inayos ko na at ipapaliwanag ko lahat dito :) And thank you to all of you who made it here. :* This may not be the best Epilogue but I hope you all enjoy it. :)

Epilogue

Ynette's POV

Naglalakad kami ni Morgiana sa dalampasigan. Kagabi pa kami nakarating dito sa Lemery pero ngayon lang kami nakalabas dahil sobrang pagod namin sa buong byahe ay nakatulog kami ng diretso.

Okay naman ang Mama ni Keith. Masyadong mabait at tuwang tuwa kay Yana. Kulang na lang ay isuksok niya sa saya ang anak ko sa sobrang pagkagiliw niya. Natawa tuloy ako ng bahagya sa kaisipang iyon.

But my laugh vanished when I saw a familiar figure in front of me. I halted on my step and took a step back, but when I thought that I can't go anywhere without him knowing, ay pumirmi ako sa kinatatayuan ko.

Bakit ba tumakas pa ako? E, alam ko namang kahit saan ako pumunta ay mahahanap niya ako. Wala talaga akong takas kay Seymour.

He was still standing there, not even looking at me, still watching the waves on the sea and arms crossed. A long silence stretched between us, only the sound of the water could only be heard.

Himala rin na sobrang tahimik ni Yana. Not that she's talkative, she's just quiet as if she's waiting for us who will speak first. Hindi naman siya binigo ni Seymour, because he was the one who broke the silence.

"Wala talaga akong balak magpakasal." Simula niya. "Pero kailangan ng magmamana sa kompanya namin. So I have to find a suitable candidate for the role. A woman who needs money and won't ever bother me with everything. And then I met you."

"In a bar and accidentally impregnated me." I retorted.

He ignored my retort and said, "Pumunta ako doon sa bar dahil gusto kong makalimot pansamantala. Hindi ko akalaing makikita kita doon. I was really caught off guard when you cry and I got mad. Because you see, why would you cry if you're really selling your body? But I found out why, because you are a virgin."

Nangunot ang noo ko nang maalala ang mga pangyayari iyon. "Why the memory down lane?" (Not sure with the words. Lol)

He held up his hand without looking at me. "Let me finish." He crossed his arms again. "Nagulo rin ang mundo ko nang makita kang maging katulong sa mansyon. Never expected that, tapos nabuntis pa pala kita. And before I married you, I thought I wanted you only for myself. But....I really don't know when it started, I just want you as a complete person who belongs to me. I want to hug you, I want to touch you, I want to kiss you."

My heart started beating violently inside my chest. "Seymour—"

He cut me off. "I even wish to hold you tight, and if I could, I want to keep you beside me forever. Not enough for me to see, not enough for me to miss, I don't even know when I will grow tired of you." He paused, took a deep breath and slowly released it. "Pero alam mo ba? Halos maguho ang mundo ko at madurog ang puso ko nang umalis ka. Nung hindi kita mahanap. At lalong lalo na ng padalhan mo ako ng annulment papers. Hindi ko kasi inaasahan 'yon. I still remember how it choked me as if someone was strangling my neck." Tumingin siya sa'kin at ang balak niyang sasabihin ay natigil. Biglang nagsalubong ang mga kilay niya. "Bakit ka umiiyak?"
