Gavin
"Bakit niyo pa kasi ako dinala dito?" Sinubukan kong bumangon pero pinigilan ako ni Brandon.
"Don't be stubborn, Berrones!" saway nito sa akin.
"For pete sake, I'm not a kid anymore to stay here, in this hospital just because I have bruises in my arms!" I tried to jerk his hand na nakahawak sa braso ko pero sadyang mas malakas to sa akin.
"Yeah, but you're acting like one," he said, smirking.
"Shut up!" I huffed. "Baka nakalimutan mo na may kasalanan ka sa akin at sa asawa ko noon, Fontana, remember?"
"Papunta na dito si Sophie," sabat ni Chad na nakaupo sa isang couch.
"What! You don't need to tell her!" Baka mas lalo lang na magalit sa akin si Sophie. Baka iisipin nun na isa akong basagulero.
"She is your wife. May karapatan siyang malaman yung tungkol sa nangyari sayo," sagot ni Chad.
Hindi nila naintindihan yung ibig kong sabihin. Hindi nila alam yung sitwasyon namin ngayon ni Sophie.
I closed my eyes trying to ease the pain. I've missed my wife so much, her beautiful eyes, her pink and kissable lips that could drive me crazy, everything about her miss na miss ko na.
Naramdaman kong bumitaw si Brandon sa pagkahawak sa braso ko. Hindi na rin ako nagpumilit pa na umuwi dahil sa sinabi ni Chad na papunta na raw sa kinaroroonan ko si Sophie. Sana balang araw mapatawad na ako ng aking asawa. Wala akong intensiyon na lokohin siya. I just loved her so much and I can't stand the thought of seeing her before asking a help from any bastards out there. Alam kong paglalaruan lang nila yung babaeng mahal ko and I would kill them.
Kung kailangan ko na lumuhod sa harapan niya paulit-ulit just to have her forgiveness hindi ako magsasawang gawin yun.
Narinig kong bumukas yung pinto at ang nag-alalang boses ng aking asawa ang bumungad sa buong silid.
"Gavin..." Her soft voice suddenly eased the pain I've felt dahil sa mga pasa kong natamo.
I opened my eyes at bumungad sa akin ang maamo pero takot na takot na mukha ng aking asawa. She was crying and sobbing like a baby. I tried to reach my hand to her eyes but I can't. Ang bigat ng braso ko. The unbearable sore all over my body was getting worse each minute.
"Who did this to you?" she asked, stroking my face.
"Shss... Don't cry, Sweetheart. I'm still handsome, right?" biro ko sa kanya.
She sobbed. "Nagawa mo pang magbiro, Berrones. You're freaking me out! You scared me to death! Who did this to you?" Hinaplos na naman niya yung mukha ko.
"Bastards," tipid kong sagot sa kanya.
"Ikaw kasi inagawan mo yung mokong na yun sa paborito nitong pagkain, ayon tuloy naghihiganti," sabat ni Chad at saka ngumisi.
Her brows knitted. "Nang dahil lang sa pagkain?" inis niyang tanong habang nilingon yung pinsan.
"You don't understand couz... Well, actually, I was the one who blackmailed that asshole na ibigay niya kay Gavin yung paborito mong fruit cake," sabi nito.
"Fruitcake?" gulat na tanong ni Sophie at saka tiningnan ako ng malalim.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to fool that guy. Ang gusto ko lang naman ay mapasaya ka nung gabing yun at nagkataon din na dumating si Chad sa cakeshop na yun. He helped me convincing that guy or should I say, pinilit namin ni Chad ang lalaking yun na ibigay sa akin yung nag-iisang fruitcake sa cakeshop na yun," mahina kong tugon.
