Caution:

The following chapter is short. Hehe

==================================================

CASEY ALEXANDRA’S POV

“PO???sabay naming sabi ni Drew.

I can’t believe this is happening.

“Pero Dad, pwedi naman pong maging successful ang partnership natin with the Valderama kahit hindi kami magpapakasal ni Drew,”

“Matagal na naming plano ito Hija, matututunan niyo rin naming mahalin ang isa’t-isa,”

“But Dad, don’t you think you are being unfair to both of us, forcing us to marry each other just because of business, we are grown-up adults here, this is insane.”

“Watch your language Alexa, wether you like it or not magpapakasal kayo ni Drew, and besides payag naman si Drew sa kasunduan,” of course papaya talaga siya. Arghh!! Kainis.

I gave Drew a fierce look.

“No, hindi ako papayag na manipulahin niyo ang buhay ko Dad, may sarili na akong pag-iisip. Ayoko, ayokong magpakasal kay Drew,” at lumabas na ako ng board room. Bahala sila sa buhay nila.

Ano bang kalokohan yun? Magpapakasal kami ni Drew? Huh? 

Napasok nga ako sa gulo dahil iniiwasan ko si Drew.

Pagkatapos ng lahat ipapakasal lang pala ako sa kanya, nakakaloka.

“Princess,” tawag sa akin ni Drew.

Hindi ko siya nilingon.

“Alexa, wait” naabutan niya ako at hinawakan niya ako sa braso.

“Ano bang pag-uusapan natin Drew?”

“Alexa, yung tugkol sa kasunduan pumayag lang ako sa kasunduan…”

“Kasi natatakot kang itakwil ka ng Daddy mo at hindi ka pamanahan yun ba ang sasabihin mo?” hindi ko na siya pinatapos magsalita.

“Alexa, hindi ganun, alam mo naman na matagal na kitang gusto dibah, kaya I have nothing against the arrangement,” paliwanag niya. 

“Oo alam ko naman na hindi ka talaga kokontra eh, pero ganun na lang ba kadali yun Drew? So ineexpect mo din na papayag ako? When you know in the first place friendship is all I can offer to you and I can’t love you the way you love me,”

“Alexa, umaasa ako na eventually matutunan mo rin akong mahalin,”

“Nagkakamali ka, instead na matutunan kitang mahalin, I will be hating you throughout our marriage,” tinalikuran ko siya pagkatapos kong sabihin yun sa kanya.

Eversince na nalaman kong may gusto si Drew sa akin I literally avoided him dahil kaibigan lang talaga turing at tingin ko s kanya at ngayon malalaman ko na lang na may kasunduang ipapakasal kaming dalawa, gosh ang sakit sa bangs.

I went back to my office to get my bag.

“Carlie, cancel all my appointments,”

“Ah mam yung appointment mo kay Mr. Paulo Andrade mam cancel din po ba?” huh? May appointment pala ako sa kanya? Pssh. 

“Yeah, cancel mo lahat. Thanks,” at umalis na ako ng building. I don’t like the atmosphere. Kainis si Dad.

Ano ba ang pag-uusapan namin ni Paulo at humingi siya ng appointment, oh well I have no plans of facing him.

Dumerecho ako sa isang bar, I just feel like unwinding today. 

“Please give me a Baby Bellini,” sabi ko sa bartender.

“You cancel our appointment just for this?” nagulat ako dahil biglang nagsalita ang katabi ko. Paglingon ko walang iba kundi si Paulo.

“I bet, hindi naman importante ang pag-uusapan natin,”sagot ko sa kanya.

“Not important, Or you’ve simply got no balls to face me,”

“Tsssk, why would I be afraid of facing you?”

“For being a deceiver,”

“Really, you know what? Kung naniniwala ka talaga na niloko kita then be it, it’s just that I don’t want to have connections to you anymore, we’re done. And kung tungkol sa business naman ang sadya mo kaya nag set ka ng appointment with me, you can talk to the project manager.” 

“See, inamin mo rin na niloko mo lang talaga ako,”

“Look Paulo, I don’t need to explain my side to you anymore. Kung ano ang pinaniniwalaan mo stick to it, sana lang hindi ka magsisi sa naging desisyon mo na paniwalaan ang iba kesa sa akin,”

“Even if you don’t directly admit it, I know it’s the damn truth. Bakit ba kasi hindi ka na lang umamin, dahil ba hanggang ngayon umaasa ka pa rin na paniwalaan kita at mahalin ulit?”

“Psssh, Keep dreaming. I have moved on hindi ko na kailangang ipilit ko pa ang sarili ko sa’yo, Mahalin ulit? You have never loved me at all because if you do you, will never believe that I can do such thing,”

“tsssk..”

“Look, wala rin namang patutunguhan tong pag-uusap natin eh, so let’s just move on with our separate lives,” then I leave.

CHRISTIAN PAULO’S POV

Umalis na si Alexa.

It still hurts to know that the person I truly loved just deceived and take all the goodness in me.

Yes, she took every good side of me, and all was left is bitterness and hatred.

Everytime na naiisip ko ang ginawa niya I can feel a stabbing pain and wounds my heart over and over again.

I want to hurt her, Iwant to make her feel the pain.

But I just can’t. And I don’t know how to.

Well maybe I’ll just take her advice “Move on with our separate lives.”
