PAW’S POV
FC HERRERA HOSPITAL 4PM.
I can call New Year, New. Kasi lahat ng hiniling ko nasa akin na. Successful Career, Complete Family, Loyal Old & New Friends, and Loving & Caring Boyfriend….and the one I really love.
Alam ko, nakakainis ako. Malandi ba? OO NA. Malandi na ako. Pinag-isipan ko rin naman ‘to, nung mga panahong ang bitter ko pa sa kanya. Iniiisip ko nun, what if, magkita kami at sabihin niyang he want me back. Anong gagawin ko? Anong sasabihin ko?
Nung una nun naisip ko na pahirapan siya, pero who am I kidding? Bakit kailangan ko pa siyang pahirapan? Masasayang lang yung mga oras na dapat nagsasaya na kami diba?
That’s why, without a second thought I said yes to him. Did I regret it? NO. Kasi if I did, hindi kami magtatagal ngayon. We’re on our fourth month today.
And I suspect that Fabian will understand me for this.
“Bye Max.” I said as I waved my hands.
She smiled at me naman. Dawn and I decided to go to Tagaytay today to celebrate our monthsary. Pambata noh? Pero siya ang nag-isip niyan.
Nasa parking lot na ako dahil susunduin daw ako ni Dawn, sabi ko kita nalang kami parking lot. Mahirap na baka makita siya ng ibang doctors at nurses na nakakakilala kay Fabian as my boyfriend, well, he is my boyfriend. Ang sabi ko kasi kay Dawn binreak ko yung boyfriend ko –na hindi niya alam na si Fabian- para sa kanya…I know, I’m a liar. May I rot in hell!
I can’t hurt Fabian. I musn’t hurt him.
“Hey!” sinalubong niya ako as he wraps his hands around my waist and claimed my lips. We are actually kissing passionately at the parking lot. Geez, that’s why I broke the kiss first. Nung una, he insisted to continue it pero I refuse. Dumiretso na ako sa kotse niya at pumasok.
Maya-maya pumasok na rin siya. He started the engine and we’re hitting the road.
Hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin alam kung anong nangyari sa kanila ni Milly. And he is quiet about it too.
“Wala ka nang appointments for tonight?” he asked.
“Wala na. Sabi ko, I have an important client to meet.” Then I glanced at him giving my meaningful look.
He chuckled. “Very important.” He agreed as we laugh together.
Nag-usap-usap lang kami habang nagbabiyahe ng may nagtext sakin. Kinuha ko naman agad yung cellphone ko. And I gulp, and I can feel my tears are ready to fall.
From: Faveb
Beb, you’re on your way to tagaytay? Sorry, I called Max, sabi niya may important client ka jan kaya biglaan. But anyway, ingat ka ah? Mas mappanatag sana ako kung ako ang naghatid sa’yo jan. txt me when you’re not busy. I love you.
I blink back the tears and I look at the window. Yes, I’m guilty.
Nagising na lang ako nang may bumuhat bigla sakin at nararamdaman kong naglalakad na kami. Any minute, binaba na niya ako sa –oh-kay- kama?
Kinukumutan na niya ako nang minulat ko yung mata ko. “Fave?” I whisper.
He smiled at me. “Hey sleepy head! Tinulugan mo ako sa kotse kanina.” Then he chuckled.
