Chapter 16
~•~
Scariett’s POV
My tears fell while entering the airplane through the stairs here. And for once again, I looked at my back. Philippines... goodbye. I wiped my tears and entered the airplane.
Why did he do this to me?
I really love him so much. I gave my body, my heart, and my all! Isn't he satisfied? Ginawa ko ang lahat to satisfy his longing for sex, but at the end, he did sex with her, that fucking kinky girl, to Cathleya! OK lang naman kung sabihin niya sakin ang totoo na Cathleya just took advantage of him because he's drunk, but he never said that. He...he lied to me. Ginawa niya akong tanga.
Bakit ba lahat nalang ng lalaking minamahal ko, niloloko ako?
I made a decision, I will leave him. Kasabay nun ang pagkalimot ko sa kanya, at ang pagbabago ng buhay ko. I will start my new life in... UK.

[Flashback]
“Happy 6th monthsary, babe.” he said sweetly while giving me the bouquet of flowers inside this restaurant that he rented for us, alone. He rented an orchestra that is currently playing my favorite song from Twilight, A Thousand Years.
I smiled at him and got the flowers. I smelled it and it so good. “Thanks babe,” sabi ko. I felt...comfortable! I am so complete! I have everything, money, face, family and him...my one and only.
“Can we dance, babe?” he stood up and giving his hand.
“Are you good in dancing?” I asked with a grin.
“Don’t underestimate me, babe. Kapag ikaw ang kasayaw ko, I will make sure that I will be the best dancer in the world.” he arrogantly said habang idinidipa pa 'yung kamay niya. He is really hot on his white long sleeves polo. 'Yung dalawang buttons sa taas ng polo niya ay unbuttoned, exposing his broad chest.
“Shhh, ang corny.” Hinawakan ko 'yung kamay niya at nagsayaw kami.
“Ano, babe? Ang galing ko 'di ba?”
“Oo na, kahit hindi nagtugma 'yung paa mo sa move mo. Haha.”
“Grabe ka ah.” The next thing happened was he hugged me so tight, while we are still dancing, following the rhythm and melody of the song. “I never thought that it could happen in my life. Parang wala na akong mahihiling pa kundi 'yung next yes mo.” he whispered.
“What do you mean?” Tanong ko.
He stopped dancing and looked into my eyes soulfully. Unti unti ay lumuluhod siya sa sahig. My emotion mixed. I don't know what to do, I don't know what to react. He brings out the ring case and opened it. “Scariett Villaloboz, will you be my forever?” Naiiyak na ako...nanginginig ang buo kong katawan. At hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko.
“Nakakainis ka, Se-Sebastian! Huhuhu!” iyak ko.
“W-why are you crying?!” tumayo siya at marahang hinagod ang likuran ko. “Stop babe, please don't cry.”
“You surprised me... Huhuhu.”
Niyakap niya ako. “Please say yes, babe. Please.”
“Yes.”
“YES!” I was shocked when he carry me and suddenly kissed me passionately. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”
“I love you so much.”
“I love you more.”
“I love you most. ” He kissed me again and we enjoyed the night.
We decide to marry next month. Umakyat na rin ng ligaw si Sebastian sa mga magulang ko. Since I'm already in 22, they said yes.
One night, I did receive an email from cathleyalava@wattpad.com.
“Bakit naman ako i-i-email ng panget na ito?” I asked my self. Pumunta ako sa balcony and I opened the email. I was shocked when I saw pictures, Sebastian and Cathleya kissing on bed. Nakapikit pa itong si Sebastian while this Cathleya is on top of him, covering a blanket. Napahinga ako ng malalim. No, this picture is not true! Hindi nila ginawa ang baga na 'yun. Baka pinainom lang niya si Sebastian ng alak at pinicturan lang niya 'yung paghahalikan nila. But there is a part saying that Sebastian did cheat on me...but no! He can't do it! Cathleya just took an advantage to ruin our relationship.
I'll ask him later if he is with Cathleya awhile or the other day and if drink liquors.
“Uhm, Sebastian... uhm, are you with Cathleya awhile or the other day?” tanong ko. I saw his reaction, he was shocked! What's the meaning of this?
Please Sebastian, tell me that Cathleya just took advantage of you.
“I'm not with her babe, hindi ko pa siya nakikita.” And I smelled his mouth. Uminom siya ng alak and he is like dizzy. I also saw a lipstick stains on his polo attire. Unti unting bumibigat ang dibdib ko.
“O-OK, sleep now...mukhang NAPAGOD ka.” I said calmy while trying to stop my temper. He kissed me on my forehead, and I smelled a girl's perfume.
“Good night babe.”
“G-good n-night.”
As he entered the room I silently cried in pain. Ang sakit ng puso ko. Ang bigat ng pakiramdam ko. I emailed Cathleya and I said that we'll meet tomorrow.
Maaga akong gumising at in-meet siya sa isang restaurant.
“So, you already know the truth?” panimula niya. “We are in a secret relationship, Scariett. We are secretly married. Sana kasi sa una palang nakinig ka na sakin para hindi ka na masaktan.”
“Hahahaha!” I faked a laugh. Ibinuhos ko kagabi lahat ng aking iyak. Gustong gusto ko na ngayong patayin itong si Cathleya using this table knife. I saw her expression that she's like disbelieving me.
For what she said, halata nga. They cheated on me. They made me feel like I'm so dumb. They made me feel like I'm a worthless person.
“You're wrong dear. Parepareho lang tayong naggamitan. Remember that pinalayas ako sa amin dahil sa kagagahan ko. I used Sebastian para ibalik lahat ng dad ko ang lahat ng pera ko. Hindi lang 'yun, my cold nights turn to a hot and tiring night. You know, ang sarap ng ASAWA mo. Ang SARAP SARAP niya. Salamat sa pagpapahiram sakin ng ilang months ha? And now, I'll leave without any words. Bitch sa 'yo ko lang sasabihin ito. 'Wag mong sasabihin kay Sebastian na aalis na akong bansa papuntang UK. Baka kasi... hanap hanaping ng ASAWA mo ang katawan ko.” Napatingin ako sa paligid at lahat sila nakatingin. “People, don't look at me, I know I'm beautiful.”

I didn't get my things on his house. Nagpaalam ako ng maayos kila Mommy, Daddy and Iñaki. I told them that I want to start a new life. I also told them that don't tell Sebastian where am I. I said that I broke up with him because I didn't love him anymore.
And now, I'm here at the plane, waiting for deplaning. As I stepped out from the airport, I smelled the different cold and fresh air of this city. This is my new life, this is the old me.
I will not going to be a bitch now.
From now on, I will rebuild my life. I will focused on my work.

Three years passed by...
Ang tagal na pala ng panahon. I looked on the outside through the glass wall of my condo unit. At this moment, I am now the most in-demand Civil Engineer here at Britain. Lahat ata ng roads ay sakin inaassign. At ang ilan sa mga buildings sa paligid, I build it with my Architect, Dalton Vaughn. I met him last last year and we decided to work together.
[Flashback...]
“I never thought that we will meet here.” sabi ni Dalton, nang nagmeet kami sa isang company, where he is working with.
“It's nice to see you again. So, how's our life?!”
“It's OK. How about you? Your family?”
“Family what?!”
“Isn't you did have a family? It's actually what your brother said thats why I stopped courting you and decided to go back here.”
“Dalton, I have no family. That guy who I'd said to be my brother was my boyfriend back then. But, he did break my heart, so... we're not—”
“Really? So, can I court you again?” he asked unexpectedly.
I smiled on him. “Court me 'till you want but I don't want to go into relationship again Dalton. I decided to fix my life. Baka nga maging nun pa ako eh. Ayoko kasing magasawa.”
“Sayang naman.”
“Teka, alam mong magtagalog?”
“Konti lang. Siyempre, I'd live there in the Philippines for a year. But, it's really a pitty. You know I really like you.”
“Thanks but, I already fixed my mind. Can we be just friends?”
“OK.”
[End of Flashback...]
Ngunit hindi rin nagtagal, gumawa kami ng kasunduan. Kapag 28 na ako at 30 na siya, if ever na wala pa kaming asawa or boyfriend, we'll marry each other. That's why he is always there for me. Katulad ngayon, he's eating on my table.
“Three years pa, Scariett.” sabi niya. Ngayon nabibihasa na siya sa pagtatagalog. Pero may accent pa rin.
“What if you got a girlfriend? Paano kung mainlove ka sa iba? That can happen, Dalton.”
“Let's just wait. And if you will not find the man of your dreams, I'll be your man. You know Scariett alam ko namang ako talaga mapapakasalan mo. You ignored all of your suitors, so it means...you like me.”
“Oo na...kahit hindi. Sa totoo lang praprangkahin kita ah? You know Analyn, your ex wants to be in relationship with you again. Dalton, I think she really likes you.”
“Tigil ka Scariett! Mas masarap pa 'tong luto mo kaysa sa kanya.”
“Ang gagu mo!” Kinuha ko 'yung sandal ko na suot suot ko at ibinato sa kanya.
“Ouch! Aray!”
“Playboy ka talaga.”
“Pogi ako eh.”
~•~
At night, wala na si Dalton. As if I can let him sleep inside my unit. It's kinda gross for persons out there even if this place is liberated. I opened my phone and did Skype with my brother that is now in 21.
He fastly answered my call and I can now see his cute face, and he is half naked. Ang pogi ng kapatid ko.
“What made you call, sister?” he asked. He's voice is so masculine. Naku maraming papaiyaking babae ang isang 'to.
“I just want to say hello. How's dad and mom?” tanong ko.
“As usual, traveling all over the world.”
“They didn't informed me where they are, so nasaan sila ngayon?”
“I think, Japan? Winter ngayon doon eh and they want to have their honeymoon for Christ's sake.”
Napangiti ako.
“I got a news. About your ex.”
“Ex? Who?!”
“Sino lang ba ang alam kong EX mo? Isn't Sebastian Baron?”
I sighed. “I don't want to hear it.”
“No. Listen to me. Your ex is just the Bachelor that is Billionaire here at the Philippines. Grabe kapag kayo nagkatuluyan siguradong billionaire ka narin ngayon.”
“Shut up, you jerk! Another, Sebastian's not a Bachelor. He is secretly married to Cathleya Lava.”
“Who's that?”
“Secret wife of Sebastian.”
“So, it is the reason why you left him without any words?” Oo nga pala. Naikwento sakin ni Iñaki. A day after I leaved, Sebastian is looking for me. “You knew that he is already married?”
“OO.”
“Ngayon mo lang nakwento sakin 'tong bagay na 'to, ate huh.”
“E ngayon lang naman naopen. Ugok!”
“Baby, let's continue please...” may narinig akong babae sa kabilang linya.
“Who's that, Aki?! Aki?!” tanong ko sa tonong nagagalit.
“I need to turn it off now...someone is waiting for me.”
“Aki, listen... don't do that! 'Wag kang maging playboy.”
“Ate naman. Sayang ang pogi at katawan ko kapag 'di ko nagamit.”
“You're so—” he turned it off! “Uggggh!” napayuko nalang ako sa table ko. I looked at my laptop and opened it. I searched his name. And it's true that he had known as the Bachelor Billionaire in the Philippines. But why is it...all of his pictures here at Google and all sites is...he's not smiling. His face in expressionless and I can see to his eyes that he's furious. What happened to you, Sebastian after how many years?
