I'm her rapist

Chapter 22: A very Good Friend Mine

#IHR

"Hi Imogen Snow? I miss you." Bati ko ng buksan nya ang pinto after kong kumatok ng ilang beses.

"Riddle? What are you doing here?" She answer coldly.

"Nothing. I just want to share my thoughts, to share my experience and my feelings including my this and that's . Would you mind to--"

"Pumasok ka Riddle Ford." Pagputol nya sa sasabihin ko. "Come in, let's talk." dagdag pa nya.

"Talaga? thank you."

"Your drunk? got problem with your girlfriend again?" tanong ni Snow.

Bahagya akong tumawa, hindi lahat ng lasing girlfriend ang problema. "My heart is broke not because of girl but because of my own sin. I want to die! my dad is right. It's the right thing to do, I should have killed myself than raping her. 

"What do you mean?" Tanong nya.

"Nakagawa ako ng kasalanan and I want to pay it back. Kill me Snow, just take my life para matapos na lahat, I can't take this anymore."

"What?"

"Joke! I'm Just joking. Dapat akong mabuhay, hahanapin ko sya saka para pagbayaran ang lahat."

"Gusto mo bang ako nalang ang pumatay sayo?" Tanong ni Snow. Natawa ako sa pagkakasabe nya dahil ito ang parehas na boses at Itsurang kinatakutan ko noong una ko syang makita. Pero ngayon? i feel safe. Parang napaka ligtas ko pag si Snow ang kasama ko kahit na pagbabanta ang naririnig ko sa kanya ngayon.

"Pumasok ka sa kwarto."

"Huh?" napakunot ako ng noo sa sinabe nya.

"I said go to bed. Take a rest saka tayo magkwentuhan. I hate dramas for real."

"So you mean masyado akong madrama ngayon?"

"Y-yah?" natatawang sagot ni Snow. Is it true? she's laughing? those curve in her lips are beautiful. 

"Your smiling Snow." Sabe ko, hindi ko mapigilan ang aking sarili. Nanlambot ang puso dahil sa tawa at mga ngiti nya.

"You're funny kiddo." Sagot nya saka binawi ang mga ngiti nya.

"Snow kwentuhan mo naman ako? I love stories."

"Kwento? You mean story telling Mr. Ride? you're not kid anymore." pagtataray nya.

"yah, I'm not kid anymore. Yan din ang madalas na sinasabe ni Dad sakin, he wants me to learn new things. Alam mo ba Snow I like you. I mean your name."

Tumingin ako sa kanya, hindi ko talaga mapigilan ang sarili ko hindi ko dapat sinasabe ang mga ito pero kusang nagsasalita ang mga labi ko.

"You know what. I love Disney stories it always remind me some scenario of my life. I graduated in High school watching Disney movies reading story books and wondering why does Ariel in little mermaid doesn't have happy ending. Lagi akong nagtatanong. Bakit si Ariel walang happy ending gaya ng iba? It's unfair. She sacrifice her self but then the Prince never love him back. All she did is to Love the prince, the story makes me sad and lonely. Pero just to clear myself hindi ako bakla ah." Natataw kong sabi.

"You love Disney? What a coincident. I like it also, Ariel is a very kind princess, you know why?" tanong ni Snow. Tumingin ako sa kanya dahil kahit lasing ako kaya kong sagutin ang tanong nya. It's my favorite story at all.

"Kase hindi nya pinatay ang prinsipe kahit ito lang ang tanging paraan para mabuhay sya. Pinili nyang mamatay o mawala para sa kaligayahan ng prinsipe right?" Sagot ko.
