I Swear, I Hate You

>>>Chapter 50<<<

Crystal's POV

'He's already in there Hija'

Basa ko sa text ni Dad and I quickly replied a simple thank you before starting the engine and drove off. Napairap ako.

Great. Another coffee shop.

"What the hell, this isn't real Dad. This isn't fvxking true!"

I heard him sigh. "Language, young lady!"

"Sorry." I quickly said as I stare at the photos in disbelief.

Anong nangyayari? Bakit mukha niya ang nakikita ko? Bakit siya ang nandito sa mga pictures na 'to!

"Hiro Jung or also known as Heo. Your Ex and your long lost childhood sweetheart ay iisa."

I glared at him. "Dad!"

"What?"

"H-he's not my ex. We're in a stage na alam mo na, cool-off. Siguro."

He chuckled. "Fine."

"So, tell me the details." Sabi ko may Mr. Jang. Tumahimik na rin si Dad at nakinig.

"I'll just go straight to the point. Mr. Hiro Jung got into a serious accident when he was a kid. He got into a coma and had a selective amnesia."

Napatakip ako sa bibig ko. That explains why na nawala lang siya na parang bula.

"He forgot about certain situations. And he forgot about you. But fortunately, the amnesia is just temporary. At hindi ko alam kung naaalala ka ba niya. It's for you to find out." Pagpapatuloy ni Mr. Jang

Ngayon, nasagot na rin ang mga katanungan sa isip ko. Mga katanungan na hindi nasagot these freaking long years.

"Kaya you should talk to your ex. Pero pwede rin namang hindi. What's the point? Diba Mr. Jang?"

Mr Jang just chuckled and I gave Dad a warning look.

"I need to book a flight first thing in the morning." I quickly said.

Dad just stared at me in disbelief. "What do you feel, Hija? What can you say?"

"I don't know, Dad. I'll find out soon when I get to talk to him."

And that's the truth. Di ko alam kung anong mararamdaman ko. Kung magiging masaya ba na after all these years ay sa wakas nakita ko na rin si Heo. Kung maiinis sa sarili dahil all these time si Hiro lang pala iyon. O kung masasaktan dahil my so-called childhood bestfriend that says; he'll always protect me, hurt me twice.

Lumapit sakin si Dad at niyakap ako.

I rolled my eyes. "I'm fine, Dad. At masyado pang maaga para magdrama."

Napabuntong hininga ako as I stopped the engine of my car. I typed a text to Dim before lumabas sa sasakyan.

'I already found your long lost first love.'

At habang papalapit ako sa entrance ng coffee shop ay parang ang bigat-bigat ng bawat hakbang ko.

Okay, seriously. What's wrong with you Crystal?! It's just Hiro!

Okay. Wala ng atrasan 'to.

I entered the shop with so much poise, and I don't know what's gotten into me for acting like this.

Inikot ko ang paningin ko sa paligid at napangiti ng makita ko siya. Likod at tenga palang siyang-siya na.

Dahan-dahan akong lumapit sa kanya at huminto sa tapat niya. Inangat naman niya ang kanyang paningin at agad napatayo ng makita niya ako.
