Steph's POV
Minulat ko unti unti ang mata ko. Nasilaw ako ng bahagya sa liwanag.
"Are you okay?" They chorused. Dalawang mukha ang agad na bumulaga sakin. As soon as I saw timmy my eyes welled up again. Mabilis namang hinawakan ni Tim ang kamay ko na agad ko namang binawi. Sumiksik ako kay Dash, who then instantly wrapped his arms around me protectively.
"What's wrong baby girl?"
"I don't want to see him. Take me with you."
"Okay let's fix your things." Sumulyap sya kay Tim na agad din naman nyang binawi. I don't want to look at him as my chest is starting to heave again.
"Who changed my clothes?" Ang alam ko suot ako ang putting polo na nabasa ng tubig. I am now wearing a shirt and a short. Hindi basa ang mga panloob ko. I turned to Dash looking puzzled when he's jaw tightened.
"I did. The nurse said..."
"Can you help me fix my stuff Dash? I'm really tired I need rest." Hindi ko na sya pina tapos. Even hearing his voice pains me. Tumayo na ako at naglakad papuntang walk in closet.
Naramdaman kong sumunod so Dashiel at nagsimulang ayusin ang mga gamit ko. I sat in the floor kasi nangangatog ang tuhod ko.
"Where are your toiletries?" He asked.
"Nasa bathroom. Ako ng kukuha."
Tulala akong lumabas. Gusto pa sanang tutol ni dash mabuti na Lang at pinabayaan nya ako. I need to take my mind of him. I saw him sitting on the bed. Mukha syang nalugi looking gloomy and all. Naawa ako sa kanya but I still feel that pang of pain in my heart. Ano bang kinakagalit ko? I told it's okay with me for him to have sex with other girls and that's true. I have always known he is doing other girls and it never really bothered me. Until now. I only have a few rules on that anyway. I only asked for secrecy, loyalty and honesty. I don't wanna know who has he been with. I want to make sure that despite the fact that he does it with other girls that would just be for the sake of doing it. A practice for me? But he will remain loyal and love only me. And I want him to be able to let go of me in any case that loyalty can't be done. But now he broke the three. I know about it. I think maybe he likes her that's why he kept it a secret and now I'm not sure if he still loves me.
"Steph."
"What do you want?" Hindi ko sya kayang tignan. Naghihina ang depensa ko.
"Tell me what do for you to forgive me." He croaked
"I need time. We need time apart." Matigas kong sabi.
"No! We cannot be apart." I was in shock when he launched himself to me. Naihulog ko ang nga toiletries na dala ko. Lumuhod sya sa harap ko and started kissing my feet! My FEET!!!!!! Nabasa ng luha ang mga paa ko.
"Babe lets go home. Let's talk. Let's fix this. Itatanan na kita. Nothing can come between us my love. Please.."
I cried. He was hugging my lips. I've never seen him so low. Timothy has an air of authority. Lahat napapasundo nya either out of respect or fear. I feel so torn. In the end I chose to be selfish. I took off he's arms around my legs. I saw dash walking towards the door with my trolley. Nilunok ko ang luhang nagbabalak nanamang kumawala. I want to assure him I'd be back for him. Pero hindi ko magawa. If I open my mouth one more time alam kong hindi ko na kakayanin pang panindigan ang desisyon ko. Naglakad ako ng mabilis palapit kay dash. He was left slumping on the floor. Nang makalapit ako kay dash nakaramdam ako ng panghihina. He quickly wrapped his arms around my waist for support. Nagpapasalamat akong hindi na sya sumunod o gumawa ng eksena. He somehow respected my decision.
