My Ex-Boyfriend. [BOOK 1&2] COMPLETED

[12]

LARA

NAGISING ako nang maramdaman ko ang malamig na hanging tumatama sa balat ko. Inayos ko ang kumot na nakabalot sa akin. I heard my phone ringing so I took it before even looking who was calling.

"Yeah, hello?"

"Ivannah?!" Namulat ko ang mata ko nang marinig ko ang babaeng boses mula sa kabilang linya. "Why are you answering this call?!"

Napalunok ako nang makita ko kung sino ang tumatawag. It was Christa and for Pete's sake, this is not my phone!

"Look this is all—"

"I'll sue you b itch! I'll sue you!" I turned off the phone and stood up from my bed. Ganun na lang ang gulat ko nang makita kong... wala akong saplot.

Nanginginig akong tumingin sa kama ko. Napahawak ako sa bibig ko nang makita ko si Gian na natutulog doon also with no clothes..

"No.. Please.. I didn't.." Pinilit kong tandaan ang nangyari kagabi and after a few moments, I remembered what I did. I remembered the stupidity I made!

I let something happen between us!

Nagmadali akong magshower at nagpalit ako ng damit. Kinuha ko lahat ng gamit ko para sana umalis na pero maya maya lang ay nakita kong bumangon si Gian. Natigagal ako.

"Show some manners and put some clothes on!"

"I'm sorry. I just woke up.. Where are you going?" Kinuha ko ang huling bagahe ko at naglakad palabas ng hotel. Napalunok ako... He used protection.. Didn't he?

It took me hours to finally get home. Napahawak ako sa ulo ko sa sobrang sakit nito. It was jetlag and hangover at the same time.

Napahilamos ako sa mukha ko. Lara Ivannah.. Ang tanga mo.. Ang tanga tanga tanga mo.

Bumuhos ang luha sa mga mata ko. How can I let him have me again?

I burried my face on my palm. Even though I know it was just a mistake.. why does half of me seems to like it? And I can't regret what happened.

"Mommy!!" Napatigil lang ako sa pag-iisip nang marinig ko ang kambal ko. I immediately ran to them. "Mommy we missed you!!"

"I missed you too, how's my little boys?"

"We're fine mommy.. we have a program on Saturday at school, I want you to come!" Kio said in excitement. I smiled and held his cheeks.

"Of course I will be there. I won't miss it!"

"Dada should come too, mommy." Napatigil ako nang sabihin yun ni Kei. Kaagad akong napalingon kay Cloud na nasa pintuan lang ng bahay. We never had a chance to talk about that issue. "Mommy please?"

"If Uncle Cloud is free..." Lumingon ako kay Cloud and he smiled. I just smiled back.

Lumapit si Cloud at binuhat si Kei. Sinubukan nitong makipag-apir kay Kio pero inirapan lang siya nito. Tumingin sa akin si Cloud.

"Lara.. I'm sorry." I just smiled and gave him a tap on his shoulder.

"Don't let the kids down." He smiled and continued to play with Kei.

Third person

Exhausted but happy. Gian came home to his condo. Nagulat na lamang ito nang makita si Christa na nasa loob ng unit nito.

Nilagpasan niya lamang ito, "Gian, why did Ivannah answer your phone?!"

"It's too early for your nagging, Christa. I'm tired."
