Saint Montenegro [UNDER REVISION]

Part 7: Tears

Hi! kindly play the music while reading this chapter! Out of my league by Stephen Speaks

Third Person's POV

"Isa pang shot!" ani Saint sa bartender, tila hindi alintana na siya'y lasing na lasing na. Mula kasi nang umalis siya sa bahay ampunan kung nasaan si Mary ay dumiretso siya sa isang bar sa BGC.

"Lasing na po kayo Sir, at kanina pa kayo dito" sagot naman ng bartender.

Uminit naman lalo ang ulo ni Saint at kinwelyuhan ang lalaki "Costumer ako dito! Do you even know who I am?! I'm the son of Richard Montenegro III, the one and only heir of Montenegro Industries! So f*cking do your job if you don't want to get fired this instant you assh*le!" sigaw nito

Namutla naman ang lalaki at agad na binigay ang shot na hinihingi nito na agad naman nilagok ni Saint.

Pagod na pagod na siya. He just got rejected. Ngayon lang siya nahindian ng isang babae, kung tutuusin, akala nito'y kaya niyang makuha ang lahat. Pati na din ang babae, but he was wrong, he just got rejected by the person he love. Sobrang sakit nun para sakanya, ngayon ay alam na niya kung ano ang nararamdaman ng mga babaeng nirereject nito.

"Brad.." sabi ng isang boses sabay tapik sa braso ni Saint na ngayo'y naka subsob na sakanyang table.

Nilingon niya ito at nakita ang matalik na kaibigan na si Jonathan. Inirapan lamang ito ni Saint.

"You threatened one of my employees today. Care to explain?" anito but he just shrugged his shoulders.

"Ano bang problema mo't nag lalasing ka? They told me you were here since afternoon. Akala ko ba tinigil mo na ang pag inom?" tanong nito at humingi ng isang beer.

"I-I don't know. I just need it" aniya

"Babae ba?" he said sipping his beer

Bigla namang napaayos ng upo si Saint, muntikan na ito maduwal sa hilo pero napigilan naman.

"A-ayoko na sa mga babae *hik* mga wala shilang kwenta! All they do i-is *hik* to hurt your feelings. Pero kasalanan ko din eh. I fell in love with the wrong p-person. *hik*" aniya

nangiti naman ang kaibigan nito "In love ka na? since when?"

"Hindi ko alam! P-pero.. shit.. I-I can't get her out of my head"

Tinapik tapik naman siya ng kaibigan "Brad, if you truly love that person, then fight! Fight for your love. Ano namang magagawa mo kung mag lalasing ka diba? If you both have feelings for each other then bakit hindi nalang maging kayo?" he asked "But remember brad.. too much love will kill you, know your limits pare. Kung ayaw niya talaga sayo, then give up! Set her free! Sometimes holding on can cause you too much pain. But sometimes letting go is easier"

Napaisip isip naman si Saint na sinabi ng kaibigan. He's right. He will never give up on Mary. because he knows someday.. someday they can be together.

Mary entered the confessional booth crying. She sat down as she wiped her tears away. Nag sign of the cross ito.

"F-Forgive me father for I have sinned.. hindi ko na po alam kung maiituloy ko na po ang pagiging madre ko"

"Bakit naman iha?" tanong ng pari

"F-Father.. I'm confused with my feelings. Alam kong binakuran ko ang puso ko upang wala nang makapasok pa na iba, p-pero father.. I think I'm falling in love, I don't know what to do" iyak ng iyak si Mary habang sinasabi ito sa pari

Narinig niya ang malalim na pag hinga ng pari "Iha.. alam nating hindi natin kayang turuan ang puso natin. Once it already beats for someone, we can't make it stop. Ngunit patuloy lang lalalim ang nararamdaman natin. God loves us all. He always wants the best for us. You know iha, kung siguradong sigurado kana na mahal mo na ang taong iyon, then go for it. Wag mo hayaang mawala ang taong yun. Remember 1 Corinthians 13:4-5: "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs"
