"Yumera━y━you know that you can't, that is in the deal right?"he said, mariin akong napapikit habang pinipigilan ang mga luhang kanina pa gustong kumawala sa aking mga mata. Of course he will say that, of course 'yan ang magiging reaksyon niya dahil sa simula pa lang ay wala na siyang balak na mag mahal pa ng iba. He is only using me for him not to feel lonely. Gosh Yumera why are you so dumb? Brandon already gave you a hint not to fall in love but you still did!

"O━fcourse I know! Ikaw talaga hindi na mabiro!"I said standing up from our bed.

"Diyan ka lang ha, I just need to use the wash room."I immediately said before running towards the bathroom. Sa sobrang pagkataranta ay ni hindi ko na narinig ang sagot ni Brandon dahil nag kulong agad ako sa banyo habang hawak hawak ang naninikip kong dibdib.

"You know this is not gonna end well."I told myself, I should get a hold of myself and take my responsibility of controlling my emotions. I love him but I still need to respect our deal.

Makalipas ang ilang oras na aking pananahimik sa may patio ay hindi parin ako pumasok sa loob matapos kong mag banyo kanina.

Brandon tried to talk to me but I told him that I need to be alone because I am not feeling well. Buti na lang at hindi na niya ako kinulit kaya naman nakapagpahinga ang dibdib ko kahit papaano━

Nabalik ako sa aking wisyo ng biglang mag ring ang aking cellphone kasabay ng pag sagot ko rito.

"Yes hello?"

"Mera? Sorry kung naistorbo kita ha? Tumawag kase sakin kanina ang isang client natin na sa pagkakaalam ko isa siya sa mga VIP na-rinecommend ng Dad mo."it was Van who called.

"Oh anong sabi?"tanong ko sabay punas sa aking mga luha.

"They want us to take part of advertisement on their up-coming project,  gusto daw nilang ikaw ang kumuha ng pictures para sa gagamiting banners at billboard ng kompanya."napangiti na lamang ako dahil don, another big catch!

"Sige, tell him that we will take it━teka kailan daw ba 'yan?"tanong ko rito.

"Next month pa naman 'yun Yumera, tatapusin lang daw nila 'yung blue print saka nila tayo tatawagan for confirmation."sagot ni Van, after we discussed for some revamping on our concepts ay ibinaba ko na rin ang tawag bago pumasok sa loob ng cabin.

Saktong nasa living room ako ng marinig ko si Brandon na may kausap sa phone. I am not that kind of person who eavesdrop when someone is talking to their phone but there is something went inside that pulls me closer to listen to him.

I slowly sat on our L-shape sofa as I silently listen to his words.

"So your telling me that  your wedding will be moved?"I heard him said.

Wedding? Don't tell me

"Shamara, look I wanted to come home but I still need to fix something in here. Not to mention we will be needing to import our goods to Tijiuana."he said, oh gosh, oh goodnesss. It was her,

"I promise I will be home right after I settle things hereof course you are important to me my queenI will attend your wedding once and for all. I told you that you need to take good care of your health when I am not there, 'eh ano 'tong nababalitaan 'kong ikaw daw ang hahawak sa isang project kay Mr. Zhang?"muling kumirot nag aking dibdib habang pinapakinggan ko siya at kung paano niya kausapin si Shamara. He even called her as his queen.

"Shamara Ezra, bibigwasan ko talaga 'yang si Hunter pag nalaman kong pinapabayaan ka niya."

"Yes, okay fine. Sige na may gagawin pa ako, goodbye queen."he said before I took a deep breath wiping off my tears.

Well, I guess, being with Brandon for a while will hurts so good. A pain that will bring me a unbearable happiness, yeah, this is what I want━to be by his side even if I will hurt myself.

"Yumera, I told you that you will be staying on my pad. PERMANENTLY."Brandon exclaimed when I told him that I need to stay on my apartment for a while dahil may a-ayusin lang ako. Lalong lalo na't madami kaming pending projects at kailangan na naming mag open nina Van.

"Yes but Brandon, hindi ko magagawa ng maayos ang trabaho ko kung 'dun ako sa pad mo. Ilang araw lang naman 'eh, just give me three days to finish my works and I will return."diretsong sagot ko rito.

"Kailan ba talagang mag stay ka 'dun? I mean Yumera━"I cut him off.

"I need it Brandon, I still had a job and I need to move in order to make my living. Hindi 'yung palagi na lang akong nakadepende sa'yo dahil lamang gusto mo at dahil sa kondisyon mo. I also have my own life and you also had one."hindi ko alam kung saan ko nahugot ang aking lakas ng loob para masabi sa kanya ang mga katagang 'yun. Siguro dahil narin sa bugso ng aking damdamin ay nabitawan ko ang mga salitang 'yun.

"Alrigth Yumera, I will respect that. Just come back when you are done doing your work."he simply said leaving me behind.
