Broken [COMPLETED]

Broken 9

I'm still in the process of moving on. But suddenly his Mom, Grell's mom, show up in front of Ate Brit's house.

Of course! Nagulantang ako. Haler, nanay ni Grell po 'yan.

Pero mas nagulantang ako sa sinabi niya.

"Grell, my son, he has a brain tumor since he was just a kid."

Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Tita. I didn't know.

"He said he wants to enjoy his life before it's too late. Then he met you. I witness how happy you are with each other. But everytime that I remember him having a brain tumor, it hurts. It hurts right here. And then this past few months, the pain is coming back, and he don't want you to be worried so he distance himself to you. And then the pain worsen. Can you do me a favor, Athena? Please stay by my son's side. He needs you. You're his comfort zone."

I didn't know. I should've know. I'm his bestfriend after all. Maybe, he really don't want me to worry.

Grell, you jerk.

You should've told me!
