Blurred Lines

Chapter 47

Rob's POV

I woke up feeling light headed and when i look around i realise i am in Lea's living room. I sat down and massage my temple.

"How are you feeling now?"

"Hon, lightheaded but a lot better now. Thank you for taking good care of me. Naabala pa tuloy kita"

She sat beside me and feel my forehead.

"Buti naman wala ka ng lagnat. You made me worry. And guess what i called the hospital and look for your doctor but they said there's no Dr. Mendoza, as in they don't have a doctor with that name. oh they have but a pedia! I will sue them Rob! Then who the heck check on you when you were there?! Either the one who answered the fone is too stupid not to know their doctor's name or..." she paused.. "  I am confuse, i don't actually don't know what to think anymore."

She was about to stand up when Rob hold her hand, tight.. "I'm so sorry"

She look at him reading his facial expression "Sorry for what Rob?"

"For being scared to lose you. For thinking this is my only chance to have you back in my life."

she cut him really confuse "Wait, i don't understand. What were you trying to say?"

"Dr. Mendoza is my college friend. Yes, it's true he's a pedia. I contacted him when i realise that i was in the hospital where he is working. I was scared when you were too decided to leave me. All i want is to have you back and i know you would push me away and tell me to go back to my family. I never had a family, you weren't in it and when you left, you left with my heart. I saw how you cared for me in the hospital, i know that there's still love left in you, for me, there in your heart. I took my chances and while you we're downstairs to buy some food i ask my friend to help me out. Pls. do not sue him or put the blame on him, he's against it. It's all my fault. I am desperate to have you back Lea. Nagkamali ako once, why can't you give me another chance? Pinagsisihan ko na yun and until now i can't forgive myself from hurting you"

"Niloko mo na naman pala ako. Why Rob? ano ba kasalanan ko sayo?" tears already streaming down her face. "There's no us anymore. Yes i love you. I still do but you have a wife and a kid, They need you the most. I never wanted to be a home wrecker, walang kasalanan yun bata."

"Lea pls"

"So wala kang amnesia? you remember everything? You play with me in the palm of your hands. I let you stay in my place kahit na pag nalaman ng press for sure pagpipyestahan ako but i didn't mind kasi importante ka sakin, your well being is more important kesa sa sasabihin ng iba. Good thing we didn't end up together, i'm glad i found Bamboo, he took me away from you"

"Lea i'm so sorry, i know there's nothing else that i can do. I didn't mean na lokohin ka, ayoko lang na mawala kapa ulit sakin but i honestly don't trust that guy"

She fake a laugh "What now? siya naman sisiraan mo?." she stood up and open the door for him "You may now go"

"Lea pls..." begging and crying already.

"Pls. go. You are hurting me too much"

"Hon, if ever you need me, andito lang ako. If only i could turn back time"

"Enough Rob..it's enough"

Lea's POV

Rob left my place about half an hour ago but i remained seated on the couch, trying to digest everything that i discovered. He never had amnesia, he never forgot about anyone especially her family but why did he stick with me regardless? because he loves you very much! that's what my heart is telling me. I still love him but this is the right time to move on. I have Bamboo now, i am engage. I just have this strange feeling that something is unsure and odd. Is this a sign for me to back out from the relationship? maybe it's anxiety. i know that i love him but cannot discern his feelings for me. There are times whereas he's the sweetest thing and there would be days when i feel so all alone and ignored and not a priority. 

I wipe my tears and told my self that i can do this.. that i am brave.. that i have a fiance who'll be there for me, love me and won't hurt my feelings. I tried to smile despite how hurt i am. I needed someone to talk to, not literally tell him what happened but just his presence will make my day.. i hope so.

He wasn't picking up for about 5 rings then when he answered he said he was in a meeting so i just found myself inside starbucks with my face covered not to attract fans. I love my fans but today is not the day for pictures nor autograph, it's hard to fake a smile especially in times like this and for sure they'll say i'm a snob or maldita if i didn't entertain them, which is crap. We are human beings who's not in a happy mood all the time. We get sick, heartbroken or just dead tired and still people always expect to see you smiling every time. 

I was just staring blankly while sipping on my coffee when i heard the barista shouted a name "Francisco" .. i look at the guy who's approaching the counter and there i saw him... my fiance getting his coffee. I didn't say a thing, i followed where he's heading and there i saw him sit and gave the other coffee to Georgina, yes that is her, for sure.

A lot of things going on my mind. He said he's in a meeting? why i he with her. I have the urge to confront him but doesn't have the energy to do so. I am exhausted. I can't take another argument today. I got my coffee and my bag, stood up and was about to leave the place when i bump into someone.

"Oh i'm so sorry. I didn't mean to." while trying to wipe the stain on his shirt.

"Lea??" i look up and saw Ian smiling at me and kiss me on the cheek. 

My instinct tells me to look at Bamboo's direction and yes he is staring at me. We are all in disguise but we know each other very well even with a hat on or even dark sunglasses.

"Ian i'm so sorry, i'll just buy you a shirt."

"okay" he plainly said. "So shall we?"

"Where?" she is confuse

"You said you'll buy me a shirt. so let's go. Samahan na kita" he instantly hold my hand.

"Babes.. " I was startled when i saw Bamboo behind me already so i let go from Ian's hold. "Where do you think you're going?"

"None of your business pre. Just go back to your date... oops friends pala right? that's what you said the other day when i saw the two of you, last night ba yun? malapit sa village nila Lea?" acting as if he's thinking if it's last night." Ian's said

"You were with her?"

he hissed in reply "I saw her while waiting for my friend in the coffee shop. remember i said i'll meet up with a friend."

"Wow dun pa siya nagcoffee malapit kina Lea? Alabang yun ha, e diba around North yun date mo nakatira?"

"Pwede ba wag ka makielam samin!" he glared at Ian.

"Oh yeah and you never came back. Masyado yata kayo nag enjoy ng friend mo" 

"Babes, i'll explain to you later"

"Later na yun alibi mo pre. May lakad lang kami" pang aasar pa ni Ian.

"You're not going with him" he said with stern.

"And what will you do with Georgina? leave her here? don't tell me ihahatid pa natin?"
