The Soul's Liberation [Mr. Hot Billionaire](Completed)

Chapter 44

Fliory

He's looking at me strangely so I debated whether it's really a good time to ask him such thing and fear started to bloom inside of me the longer he stares and I can't take it.

"Forget it," matamlay kong sabi.

Maybe I hallucinated that he wants a fresh start.

"You're going to listen now?" he asks. His hands held mine tightly.

Huminga ako ng malalim at binuga ng marahas ang hanging naipon sa dibdib ko bago tumango. "Sure," I tell him. "Ano bang sasabihin mo?"

His hands starting to play with my fingers and his eyes started to look everywhere but to me. He nibbles on his upper lips for a second.

"I've finally freed myself," aniya. His words came out from him with ease and I can tell he feels very lighthearted telling me those.

I frown having an idea on his words but I still wanted to confirm. "Free from what?" I ask.

He smiled and started talking.

Kasalukuyan akong nakatayo sa puntod ni Sarah, crying my heart out. It's been three months since Fliory left. And I found myself in Sarah's grave. I'm finally ready.

"I'm sorry," bulong ko and kneel. "I'm so sorry."

After a good hour of calming myself while kneeling in front of her grave, I decided to bid my goodbye.

"I'm letting you go," bulong ko sa hangin. It felt as if those words have been waiting to be said and the moment I said those, I feel like I've finally lifted a burden inside of me that's been dragging me with everything that I do. And I might not always have confronted those parts inside of me but I've always known that I have chained myself with the past.

Letting go of a person sounds easy and it might be if that person is still living not until they die and you're left with nothing but misery. I admit that I never really wanted to confront this part, where I need to sort out my thoughts on her death, my decision about my future, my freedom from our past. It's always been hard.

But now I'm ready. I need to let her go to face the future without dragging our past in my heart. I need to be able to become a person worthy of something that I deserve.

I let out a sigh and I can't help but tear up again, so I wiped it and sat on the grass. I looked at the leaves that stayed on her name plaque.

She's buried under a tree in her favorite spot on her father's property. It's an oak tree that's still growing healthy until now. The wind passes by and more leaves fell from the tree, dropping on her name plaque. They loved them.

"Did you know that this woman named Fliory loved me. I was devastated about your death and she's still there, waiting for me to let her in my head but I couldn't do that to her. She needs to be away from me because you're there and you're the one I was thinking about at the moment and I can't let her stay knowing that fact. She's one of the greatest woman I've come to know in my life. And sadly I've been very unfair to her because I've been dealing with your death but now, I plan to go after her. It's all ok now, right?" I asked hoping she'd answer. A cold air embraced me so I smiled. Thank you.

Tatayo na sana ako but a hand tap my head.

"Mrs. Sutton."

"Drop the formality, honey," she said and smiled. Naupo siya sa tabi ko. "I heard you already know the truth." Tumango ako. "I'm glad."
