Rains of Hatred (Celebrity Series #1)

Hatred 52

Chapter 52

Officially Dating

Jebriel's anger for me is understandable. Noong una pa lang, naiintindihan ko na iyon. Though, despite of that, I still tried pursuing him. Sa pagkakilala ko kasi sa kanya, hindi nagtatagal ang galit niya sa akin. He's matured enough to understand certain situation. Pero ngayon, I didn't expect to meet the opposite.

Siguro kasi, I expected him to approach me nicely. Marami na nga sigurong nangyari't nagbago sa nagdaang taon na wala ako. Nasasaktan ako pero alam kong isa na ito sa kailangan kong tanggapin. This is just the start. Hindi pwedeng sumuko na lamang ako.

We lost years and I want to cope up with him. Pinangako kong babalik ako para sa kanya. Tutuparin ko 'yon hanggang sa maipaliwanag ko ang lahat at matanggap niya ulit ako.

"Thanks for accepting my invite. I really want to talk to you." Jeeron said as he sipped his coffee from the cup.

Mula sa bintana ay bumaling ako sa kanya. Kakalapag pa lang niya sa kape ay tumingin na agad siya sa akin. Ngumiti ako.

"Thanks for the invite. I actually love the place." I said referring to the coffee shop.

Hindi ko na naalala ang dating itsura nito noon dahil sa bagong renovation nito ngayon. But I'm sure, napuntahan ko na ito dati.

"So, how are you? You seem to love your long time vacation." panimula niya.

Umiling ako at halos matawa sa tanong niya. Love my vacation? Baka puro luha siguro ang theme!

"Paano ko naman nasabi?"

"It's obvious. Your skin whitened so much. Pumayat ka nga lang ng kaunti pero bagay pa rin sayo. Mas bagay kaysa noong dati. And your hair went longer. You seem enjoying your vacation so much that you forgot to cut your hair."

Ngumuso ako at inabot ang halos tagabeywang ko ng buhok. Yes, I didn't think of cutting my hair because my first priority was always been my mother. I have no time thinking about my myself anymore when I got depress because of my mother's death too.

"Hmm. But I like my hair this way." wala sa sarili kong sagot.

"Yes. I like it so much too. It makes you more lovely."

"Thank you. Eh ikaw? I didn't heard anything about you. Though, nakikita ko rin naman ang billboard mo sa daan. It seems like your career boomed so much. I bet sobrang sikat na ninyo ni Kaira?"

Ngumisi siya at umiling, natatawa sa akin. Kumunot tuloy ang noo ko.

"I am now a single actor, Reign."

"Ha?"

"Hmm. 2 years ago."

Umawang ang bibig ko sa gulat. That explain why I didn't saw Kaira earlier in the set! Nag single career na pala siya! And it was 2 years ago? That long? Bakit? What happen to Kaira? Nagsingle career din?

"Hmm, I think the news shocked you si much. Hindi mo ba talaga alam kung anong nangyayari rito habang nasa bakasyon ka?"

"H-Hindi. I didn't know a single thing."

"Made me think that you really enjoy your vacation." He flashed a wide smirk. "Hindi ka nakibalita?"

Ngumuso ako. Sa kaasikaso ko sa medication ni Mama, hindi ko na naisip pang makibalita ng mula rito. Nawala na rin sa isip ko at dahil na rin siguro sa ayaw ko ng mag-isip pa ng karagdagang problema, hindi na rin ako nag-abala pang makibalita.

"I'm sorry. I really don't know what happened."

He looked at me in disbelief. Gusto ko sanang magpakwento sa kanya dahil pakiramdam ko ay kailangan kong malaman 'yon para makapag-adjust. Pero, nahihiya ako sa pwede niyang isipin.
