Charmaine's POV

She listened to him snore and looked at him. She sighed. Nothing else is new. He still is a loud sleeper.

'Ugh! be quiet, you...' she whispered. She changed her position, she turned her body to the window and looked outside. She felt like crying.

Why did you do it Charm?!? I thought you liked him?
I do! I like him..a lot!
Then why did you leave him?
I don't know!

Her mind and heart is in chaos. Leaving him was hard but leaving without saying goodbye, was the hardest she had done. Yes! the hardest, so far.

Have I fallen for him? is it possible to love someone in just a matter of days? Two days to be exact!

But what about him? is the feeling mutual? does he feel the same way as I do? or is it just sex for him?
I don't know!

You will never know because you left him without a word. You did not even left him a note. You just left and go.

For all I know, he is the same as the others out there, taking advantage of women alone or maybe he is just passing time because he had a quarrel with his girlfriend or...wife!

Tears formed in her eyes.

Yeah, think whatever you want to think but remember you let him. You invited him. You gave him the pass.

Enough! I know! I know! something has drawn me to him and I don't know what or why. I have never imagined not even in my wildest dream that I would do it but I just did and...

she searched in her heart

...I don't regret it. I will forever remember him. Every moment, every smile, every feature of his face, every breath he took while inside me, calling my name while we both come undone....

Stop! don't do it. Stop thinking of him. You already left him. Get it over with. For all you know, he's thanking you you made it easy for him to say goodbye to you...it would eventually be a goodbye.

She sniffed. She put her hand on her mouth to stop a sob escaping through it.

She closed her eyes and let her mind drift to her last hours spent with Richard tuning out Paolo's loud snore beside her.

'Richard, how could you do this to me?' sabi nya with teary-eyes

She was all smiles but all that smile flew when she discovered what the surprise is.

'C'mon Maine, I know you can do it. Conquer that fear'

'I can't go in there. Sinabi ko sayo yun diba?' nangingilid ang mga luha nito. Nakatingin lang ang nag o-operate ng motor boat sa kanila, pinapanood sila. Waiting for them patiently, mabuti na lang at walang ibang tao.

Lumapit ito sa kanya and held her face with his hands 'Listen, Maine.. you are not going 'in' there. We'll be above it. We will fly. Watch the sunset, like birds' kumbinsi nito sa  kanya.

'lovebirds sir!' sabat ng isa sa mag o-operate. Sabay silang lumingon dito.

'oopss sorry po..' napangiwi ito at nag-peace sign sa kanilang dalawa

Tuminging muli si Charm sa dagat.

'I don't know. I know it sounds funny but I really can't' she said almost a whisper

Niyakap sya nito 'you're brave Maine. I know you can do it. You trust me right?' she nodded

'I won't let anything happen to you. I promise you that' she nodded again
