MADNESS OF LOVE

CHAPTER 1

Cassandra's POV

     Isang pilit na ngiti lamang ang naipakita ko sa mga bisitang nakiramay.

     Nakakalungkot isipin na sa dalawang taon naming pagsasama ni Xander ay darating sa puntong iiwan din nya ako.

     Yes! Im Cassandra Athena De Guzman Montenegro, and Im married to John Alexander Montenegro...one of the indemand businessman in Asia because of his skills in handling business inside and outside of the country. He also own the biggest telecom company in Asia which is the ALEGRO TELECOM INCORPORATION.

    Pero ngayon ay wala na sya. He left me and I feel so much pain.

    We know that this time will come at kahit na inihanda ko na ang aking sarili ay hindi pa rin maiwasan ang malungkot at mangulila ako sakanya.

    Kakatapos lang ng libing ni Xander at patungo na ako sa aking sasakyan ng salubungin ako ni Ayesha...my bestfriend.

"Cass, condolences." malungkot na sabi nya.

"Thank you 'Yesh..." tipid kong sagot.

   She pull me for a hug and i hugged her back tightly. Now I can't control my emotions again...unti-unting namasa ulit ang aking mga mata.

"Sshh...Cass...Xander would not be happy if he sees you like this." she said full of sincerity. "remember?..he does'nt like to see you crying..." she added.

"I-I--know...p..pero anong gagawin ko?..ang bigat sa loob..." my lips are trembling dahil nadin sa pagpipigil kong umiyak.

"Hush now...everything happens for a reason you know..." she said while brushing my back. "He want's you to move on.." dagdag pa niya.

    Im starting to cry again...but, maybe 'Yesha was right, i wiped my tears again.

    In the first place, Xander and I knew about this...that this time will come..pero kahit na, I'm not ready for this, back then I'm still hoping that he'll fight,. but we can't stop kung ano man ang mangyayari...now, He's gone..and I feel so much hurt...He's my bestfriend and also my husband...

     I burst out in tears...then suddenly, I remember those last moments I had with him.

FLASHBACK....

"Ssshh...d-don't cry princess...you know that I'm not used to see you crying..." nanghihina nyang sabi.

"B--but I--I can't!.." then tears started to come out in my eyes.

"Hush now...we know that this time will come, and I want you to be strong..." he said as he wiped my tears away.

     He held my hands and look me in the eyes.

"I want you to be happy..." He smiled at me genuinely.

"How am I supposed to be happy if I knew that you'll leave me?!.." sagot ko sakanya.

     Puno ng sakit ang aking puso, ang bigat sa pakiramdam kapag naiisip kong iiwan na nya ako.

"Ang daya mo naman kasi eh!!.." I cried again.

    He wiped my tears again and pull me for another hug. I hugged him back..sobrang higpit..bigla nalang sya nagsalitang muli.

"I--I'm sorry princess..." he sadly said. "I'm sorry for making you cry everytime, I'm sorry that I can't give you happiness...I--I hope you can forgive me..." bigla nalang tumulo ang mga luha nya. I can see pain in his eyes.

"No!..don't be sorry Xan....you know that I'm happy with you...It's my decision to be with you..you're the only person who loved me..." sabi ko sakanya.
