[12] | End of Part One|

Read until the end, you'll see the next preview of this story. 

It hurts.

Napakasakit. Bakit ganun? My heart is breaking piece by piece. And I couldn’t help it.

“Tahan na Kath.” He comforted me. Enrique did.

Daniel didn’t show up. Wala. Everything was a lie after all. Hindi niya ako minahal. Ako lang si tanga na umasa na minahal niya din ako, kahit alam ko naman na kagabi pa na wala na talaga eh, na hindi talaga ako.

Pero bakit ang sakit sakit. Nagtiwala ako sa kanya, I believed in his love but I was wrong and now it led me to heartaches.

He broke every promise he made with me. He betrayed me. I should have known better. Paul was right after all, he’s a Vanderbilt and he’d do everything just to get me. Just to marry me to Enrique.

Well if that’s what he wants then so be it.

*

Days passed after that night when he didn’t show up, nakatira na ulit ako sa mansion namin, and Tita Clarisse gave back our company, sabi niya hindi naman niya talaga kinuha yun, siya lang ang nagbantay nung namatay si mommy, and now she gave it back to me.

Inayos namin ni Paul yung sa city hall, me being dead that is. I was on every front page of the newspaper, online news, magazines. I guess being back from the dead made a fuss after all.

And about sa company, because I can’t still handle it, you know, I’m still studying para mapag-aralan, the board elected an acting president and Paul will guide him para dito, ganun na din ako, they’ll teach me everything I should know about the company.

I’m also preparing for my wedding with Enrique, my wedding would happen 3 months from now and I’m fine with that.

Since that night, I promised to never fall in love again. Therefore, I decided to marry Enrique, it’s the right thing to do after all. I never cried again, last na yung nasa yakap ako ni Enrique. Pagod na din akong umiyak. Para saan pa? Mabablik ba yung panahon kung kalian hindi ko pa nakilala si Daniel? Mababalik ba at maiiwasan ko ba siya kung mababalik nga?

Sympre hindi diba? What’s the use of crying?

I haven’t seen him and I prepared myself for that day to come.

Ngayon nalang pala uli ako papasok ng school, naging sobrang busy kasi ako, so this will be my first day again. Sympre nagbalik na yung lumang lifestyle ko, which me having chauffeurs and maids.

I asked them to call me Miss Kath, siguro nasanay na din ako at mas gusto ko yung Kath, and they did naman Kathryn nga lang.

So eto ako naglalakad papunta sa classroom ko, I have bodyguards pero haggang labas lang sila ng building ko kasi naman why do I need them pa? Sabi ni Paul, baka daw may magtangka sa buhay ko, yung kidnap. Diba nga dati nung ako pa si Leila talaga, sa bahay lang ako at hindi ako lumalabas so eto back na sa pagiging Leila which means having bodyguards.

Nakarating na ako sa classroom and I saw him dun sa pwesto namin, he looked at me but I looked away, nandun din sila Julia at Khalil.

Naglakad na ako but I didn’t sit with them, sa harap ako umupo, just seeing him makes my heart break akala ko ready na ako pero no I’m still not.

Dumating na din si Enrique, he sat beside me and I gave him a smile and he smiled back. Si Enrique, he told me he didn’t know about Daniel basta ang alam lang niya yung mga sinabi sa kanya ni Tita Clarisse and when I asked him about that Bea, he would change the topic.
