A very very short chapter because this story is actually coming to an end??? *Cries* because I'll be proceeding to write The Married Life which tackles Xavier and Keiran's life as a married couple. I'm also having trouble getting out of writer's block so, there.
Also, a bit of a WARNING that this chappy may contain sexual abuse, possible rape and more. Read at your own risk or whateva.
Keiran
Of course, I still love him. I'm told to lie when he asks. Masakit para sa akin to see him hurt kaya nagmadali akong umalis.
Hawak ako ng tatay ko sa leeg. He threatens to hurt Xavier if ever we get back together behind his back, which scares me a lot.
Elias can be controlling but he can also be a piece of shit. Katulad nyan, pilit niyang pinipigilan kung anong meron sa amin ni Xavier.
Pumayag lang siya for the money, all for the money. To keep the money to ourselves, to keep the family name clean, to keep everything in our loving hands. Wala siyang pakealam sa nararamdaman ko. Pero seems to me that his homophobic ass is much greater than his love for money, considering he and Xavier's parents stopped the arrangement before it even became official.
Nagbuntong hininga ako at nagpatuloy sa ginagawa ko rito sa school. Me and Kairo caught up with each other sa bahay since we go to different schools, mahirap magkita nung mga nakaraang buwan but now I'm back.
Sa loob ng isang buwan kong nakabalik sa bahay, I've been bossed around, threatened and bad-mouthed. Mum and Kairo were there for me of course, but Elias always has the need to be a little bitch to me.
Tinanggap ko na lang na he hates me, ayaw niya sa kagaya ko even if it meant losing our bond, he apparently wants to turn me straight. I don't know how but he's determined that he will.
Jokes on him, that's never happening.
I'm the council president now, marami na akong dapat asikasuhin. Siguro nga, a break from Xavier would be nice.
Nagsisimula na ring mag-pile up ang mga gawain sa kompanya, staying focused is a challenge nowadays. I'm really not dedicated with owning a company.
On second thought, if we pursue this, maaaring madalas kaming magkasama ni Xavier.
Enough of him! He probably hates you now that he thinks na hindi mo na siya mahal.
It stings, a lot. But I need to be better because the way I see it, things aren't going to get better.
"Sir Keiran," ridding me of my thoughts comes Josef, my bodyguard, "Sir Elias wants to speak to you." He hands over the phone.
Did I mention that I'm not allowed to use my phone? No? Well, I'm not. Baka raw i-contact ko si Xavier.
"Hello," I started over the phone.
"Keiran, I want you home early. May ipakikilala ako sayo." He abruptly says at ibinaba na ang phone.
Something's wrong. Hindi ko gusto itong ipapakilala na 'to. Why do I have a bad feeling about this?
Nevertheless, pinabayaan ko muna ang isip ko at pinagpatuloy ang pag-pirma ng mga events na hinain ng iba't ibang department sa akin.
"Fund raising for junk food." Hawak ko ang ulo ko habang binabasa ito, "A big no for me."
"Petition to be kissed by the council president." Agad namang kumunot ang noo ko rito. "Not interested."
