You're Still The One [COMPLETE]

Chapter 8

~ Nothing hurts more than being disappointed by the single person you thought would never hurt you ~

"I'm sorry, Ziel" sabi ko at tsaka hinawi ang nakaharang na buhok sa pagmumukha ng panganay naming ni Kylie.

"I'm so sorry if I you're suffering because of me" sambit ko habang pinigilan kong umiyak.

Nicoziel may be so mature of her age because she understands every time I reasoned out but what saddened me the most?

Seeing my daughter cries because she miss her mom.

Yes, naabutan ko siyang umiiyak sa veranda nang icheck ko ang kwarto niya if she's sleeping already or not and when I asked her why she said.

"I miss hearing mommy's voice, I miss hearing her stories, I miss her smell, I miss the food she cooks every morning, I miss mommy so much, Dad. I wish I could see her even just for a moment"

I froze upon hearing that from my five-years-old kid.

I never had seen her cry, even though she got scratches or bruises after playing outside. She always said that's she a big girl and big girls don't cry.

It melts my heart upon seeing and hearing her reasons. She misses Kylie. Everyone does. That's why I proposed this plan. That's why everyone agreed so it can't add confusions to her but was I really was thinking about Kylie? Or I was thinking about how can she accept me as her husband without knowing we have kids?

Yeah. It was a foolish reason right?

It was really stupid.

I am really stupid.

I just hope when I tell her everything tomorrow she wouldn't hate me.

Bumababa ako para kumuha ng tubig. Umulan pala? Hindi ko man lang napansin dahil iniisip ko ang mga salitang pwede kong sabihin upang hindi niya ako kasuklaman.

I was about to go to my room upstairs when I heard the door bell.

Napatingin ako sa orasan.

It's 12:45

Sino nanaman kaya ang susugod at pupunta dito ng dis oras ng gabi?

Pagkabukas na pagkabukas ko ng pinto na kita ko ang isang babaeng basang-basa sa ulan.

"Kylie" I said.

Napatingin siya sa akin at isang malutong na sampal ang natanggap ko.

"Damn you!" Kylie said at nakita ko sa mga mata niya ang unti-unting pagbagsak ng mga luha sa mukha niya "Why do you have to be so unfair?"

"Ky? Hi..Hindi ko alam ang pinagsasabi mo" sambit ko nang makabawi ako galing sa pagkabigla ko ng sampalin niya ako.

"Hindi alam?" she fakely laughed "Akala ko ako lang ang may memory gap, ikaw rin pala?" she said as she smirked.

Napapikit ako ayaw ko ng dagdagan ang galit niya sa akin at nais kong linawin kung bakit siya sumugod dito ng dis oras ng gabi.

I was about to open my mouth to say something but I was stunned when I heard her say something.

"Akala ko kaya ka lang extra sweet dahil gusto mong ibalik ang dati. Akala ko totoo ka. Akala ko lang pala ang lahat ng iyon, Ru" narinig kong sabi niya habang pinipigilan niyang humikbi.

"Hindi ko alam na ikaw lang din pala ang sisira sa pinaglalaban mo. Bakit? Bakit mo tinago na may anak na pala tayo? Ha?!" she said as she started to break down "Damn you! Damn you!" she said habang hinahampas-hampas ang dibdib ko.
