MS 1: Endless romance (Completed)

Chapter 37

#MSeries

Even in my dreams I was in pain. I've seen myself begged on bended knees. I've seen myself crying out my heart because of how unlucky I am. I've seen thier life being happy together while I was cold,lonely and hurting.

Kaya naman ng nagising ako, panibagong luha ang lumabas sa mata ko. "Letse!"marahas kong pinalis ang luha sa pisngi. It was dark outside and the stars are visible.
Kinuha ko ang cellphone at nag dial sa number ni Julia. Nagpasalamat naman ako at sinagot niya kaagad.

"Hello..."her bedroom voice almost made me cried louder.

I just wished she's here to comfort me.

"H-hello..."tinakpan ko ang bibig para pigilan maiyak.

"Ae...wait are you crying? What happened?"naalerto ang boses niya. I've heard Red asked on the line.

"Babalik na ako d-dyan. I'm sorry...I can't talk much. Sorry..."pumiyok ang boses ko. What's happening the hell of me!?

"Ae! Wait, hello!"I dropped the call.

I sat on the floor and hugged my knees. I sob and sob while thinking of everything. Ganito ba talaga kasakit kapag nasaktan dahil lang sa pag ibig? Never thought it would feel this way. Siguro, ganito kasakit dahil ganoon kasaya. My phone vibrates and there's an unknown caller. I didn't pick it up. I don't want to talk someone right now. Naka ilang tawag iyon pero tulala lang ako at hindi gumagalaw.

There was a knocked on my door thirty minutes later. The knocked was frequent but I didn't bother to stand up and open it. Thinking of him behind that door is unbelievable.

"Aela, are you there? This is Matthew! Can you open the door?"sigaw ni Matthew sa labas at hindi itinigil ang malakas na katok.

Pagod akong tumayo at tinignan siya sa pinhole. Just making sure if he's alone or not. I wouldn't let myself go back there and be with Ryan. I just hate it now. I hate him. I slowly opened the door and there...tumambad siyang pagod at nasasaktan.

"Kanina kapa namin hinahanap. Luckily I am the one who found you. Kumain kana ba?"tanong niya kusang pumasok sa loob. Wala na akong nagawa at sinarado ulit ang pinto.

I wiped my remaining tears and faced him. "If you're here to get me then I'm sorry...cuz I won't go back there."matigas kong sabi.

He just look at me like I am the most miserable woman in the earth. Sa iksi ng panahon na nakausap ko ang taong 'to magaan naman ang loob ko sa kanya. I've seen empathy in his eyes.

"I'm sorry about this."bulong niya.

I smirked. "You knew this would happen but you never tell me beforehand. And now we're sharing the same pain because his with her right now,diba? Ano, Matthew karma is a bitch?"

Umiling siya at pumikit. Tila ba hirap na hirap sa narinig. "I know,Aela. Seeing both ourselves right now...my conscience is eating me that's why I'm here right now to accompany you. May kasalanan rin naman ako..."sabi niya. He sat on the edge of the bed and hold his both hands tightly.

We're both silent for a moment. Habang tinititigan ko siya ramdam ko rin ang sakit. It's very obvious that he likes Arabelle very much. But then, she doesn't feel the same way. That's why he's here right in front of me... unable to think. I mean,pareho naman kami.

"Nag dinner kana?"tanong niya.

Umiling ako. I don't feel hungry or what. I'm just tired.

Tumayo siya at nagpaalam. "I'll just buy you food. Babalik ako agad..."aniya.

Bumalik siya na may dalang maraming pagkain. He even brought coffee for us. Pero hindi siya kumain. Napilitan lang naman akong kumain dahil mapilit siya. Halos hindi ko malunok ang pagkain. Habang nakatulala ko pilit na nag re-replay ang nangyari kanina sa garden. Sobrang hirap lang niyang isipin.
