status: it's COMPLICATED! (COMPLETED)

Chapter 67

"Enzo, I'm sorry for telling you this, pero kasi. . .
.
.
.
hindi si Sophia yung nakita mong namatay. It's another person. . .
.
.
It's her twin sister Carmen."
 

 
 
TWIN SISTER.
 
 
Sophia has a twin sister?? How come I did'nt know?!
 
 

I did'nt utter a word.

 

Instead, I just listened.
 

That's all I can do.

 

I'm too confuse to do otherwise.

  

I have too much questions that I can't seem to decide which to ask, and which to not.

 
"Alam ko na mahirap intindihin ang mga sinasabi ko ngayon Enzo dahil iba ang alala na nasa isipan mo. Pero yun ang totoo. I hate myself for not telling you before. I saw how hurt you've been, how miserable you've become, pero hindi ko parin sinabi ang totoo. Maybe because we did that for our daughter Sophia. And because we don't want you to get hurt because of the truth. The truth that Sophia fell out of love with you."

 
    
That. I have to clarify.
 

"Mawalang galang na po tita, but you did it because you DONT WANT ME TO GET HURT? I am FAR from NOT getting hurt! I almost ended my life because of the lies you fed me! And what do you mean that Sophia fell out of love with me?  We. . . w-we loved each other so much." sabi ko habang pahina ng pahina ang boses ko because of the realizations I'm having.

 
 

 Now that I think about it. . . yes. There are signs. .

   

 
Signs that she did not love me anymore.
 

Signs that I blindly ignored because I trusted her. . .and because I loved her.

Numerous call logs of a person named James.
  
Security enabled files na dati naman ay wala.
  
Mga pagkakataon na parang wala na siyang ganang kasama ako.
 
Kisses that are not passionate.
 
I love you's that are not heart felt.
 
And moments I saw her with another man but I stupidly made myself believe that it's not her. . . Even though I know that it is.
   
 
"I know Enzo. I know. That's why I'm sorry for keeping the truth from you. That is the biggest regret I have in my life." sabi ni tita saka niya hinawakan ang mga kamay ko.

    

"But tita, can you explain to me what REALLY happened?"

 

    

. .Flashback. .
    
 
"But mom, . . I don't love him anymore! Hindi na ako babalik pa diyan sa pilipinas dahil gusto ko na kasama si James. Dito na kami sa US maninirahan. I'm sorry mom, na bigla nalang akong umalis ng walang pasabi, but. . hindi ko na talaga kaya pang magtagal kasama si Enzo. Hindi ko na kayang magpanggap pa!"

 

Nag-uusap si Sophia at ang kanyang Ina sa telepono. Bigla kasing lumipad si Sophia papuntang US kahapon ng hindi nag-papaalam at ngayon ay sinasabi nito na hindi na siya babalik pa. . .Dahil may mahal na siyang iba.
