Battered Wife

Chapter 40

Play I wish you were here while reading 😊

Anthon's P.O.V

Malapit ng mag 9pm pero wala pa din siya. I haven't received even one message from her. I don't know if she's coming, or not. Ang alam ko lang e sana pumunta siya. I want to call her but I am not in a rush naman na pilitin siyang pumunta dito. I want to see her and talk to her. To settle some things na sana noon pa namin pinag-usapan. I looked around, still no trace of her.

Where is she?

The old her is gone. I can see in her face na wala na siyang paki-alam sa akin. She's successful now. In a different life, without me. How can she handle her life na knowing na nandito ako ulit? If I could only turn back the time to the place where she left, I could've chased her and force her to forgive me.

How is she?

Kamusta na kaya siya? I felt betrayed by Jake kase siya pala ang may gawa ng lahat ng ito. Alam ko na pinaghihiganti niya lang ako for making her sister my mistress. Alam ko na this is his revenge para makuha niya pabalik ang kapatid niya sa akin. Ang pagkuha niya ng loob balik sa kapatid niya ay ang kapalit ng pagpapalaya niya kay Emma. He planned all of this. He was the reason why Emma left me and ran for him instead. Ginamit niya lang si Emma, and once Emma knows this, malalagot si Jake. He used us both para kay Andy. Ano kaya ang buhay ni Emma sa mga kamay niya? Did he fake better than all the plastics in the world? Inamo niya ba talaga si Emma sa loob ng dalawang taon?

Who is she?

Sino na ba ang Emma na kilala ko noon at ngayon? She's a completely different person in a different world. I don't know her anymore. The old Emma I have known for so long is gone. Wala na akong balita kung ano na ang mga bagay na gusto niya at hindi. Hindi ko na alam kung mahal niya pa ba ako o hindi.

Why did she left?

Is that because I am too asshole to be a better man? Or is it because I have loved another woman besides her? But I left Andy already, a long time ago. Nung na-realize ko na siya pala talaga ang mahal ko. Why did she left me? Without saying a simple goodbye? Is it because she doesn't want my words to hold her back once again?

What is she thinking?

Is she thinking of coming back? Or is she thinking of an annulment? What are the things that are running inside her head? Is she going to love me back again? Even when that means I will love her back too? Would she still accept me in her life once again?

When will she come back?

Because I miss her so. When will she tell me she loves me still? When will she say I'm coming home for you? When will she realize that giving me a second chance is worthy than what she thinks it would be? When will she realize that she still loves me? Man, I love her so.
