Kelly

I keep pacing back and forth in the living room. Hindi ko alam kung bakit di ako mapakali. I'm starting to question my decision, tama ba ang gagawin ko? I love Kristen and I only want what's the best for her

"Ma'am Kelly, naayos ko na po ang mga gamit ni Kristen"

I turned to her and saw sadness in her eyes, I just smiled and nodded. Layla gave me a sad smile and left

I sighed. I heard an engine from a car outside, is that Phoenix? Hindi pa sya nakakabalik simula nang umalis sya kanina. My question was answered when I saw Kyo and he's with his friends

"Hey Kelly, why you're still awake? Maaga ang flight nyo bukas and Phoenix asked me to drive you and Kristen to the airport"

Napansin nyang nakatingin ako sa mga kasama nya

"Oh they are my friends. This is Jk"

He smiled at me and I was about to offer a hand when he suddenly hugged me

"Oh damn, you're so pretty. No wonder that Phoenix fell for you"

He giggled. He's handsome but I guess he's looking for handsome too

"And this is Kheira"

Napatingin ako sa babaeng kasama nila

She's beautiful. She has this blonde hair. She smiled at me and I smiled back

"We heard that you will leave together with Kristen, we dropped by to see that beautiful girl before you guys leave"

Jk clung on her arm and looked at me

"Yeah she's right, can we? "

I nodded at them. They smiled and went to Kristen's room. I turned to Kyo and gave him a look, he arched his brow at me

"What? You're not thinking that she's my girlfriend right? "

"What do you think? "

He frowned

"Don't give me that look Kelly. She's a friend, kilala mo si Kyle?"

Phoenix already told me about him. Siya ang susundo sa amin

"That's her ex and believe me may continuation pa ang love story ng dalawang yan"

He laughed and sat on the couch. I sat across him

"Sigurado ka na ba sa desisyon mo? "

"I think this is the best way"

"I know I don't have the rights para makialam sa inyo pero pwede mo bang pag isipan muna ng mabuti ang gagawin mong desisyon? "

"I already thought about that at alam kong may alam ka rin sa mga nagawa sakin ni Phoenix. There are wounds that can't be easily heal"

"Ano sa tingin mo ang mararamdaman ni Kristen pag nilayo mo sya kay Phoenix? "

"She's smart at alam kong maiintindihan nya ko"

"Stop being selfish, you will make up lies to make Kristen believe you? "

Napatingin ako sa nagsalita, it was Kheira. She arched her brow and sat beside Kyo. Si Jk naman ay umupo sa may gilid ko

"I won't make lies"

"Then you will tell her everything? Do you think a young mind as her can take that kind of truth? "

"I-i don't have a choice"

"Oh Kelly, there are always choices. Why don't you give her a complete family? "

I gritted my teeth

"Wala kang alam sa ginawa sakin ni Phoenix"
