The Selfish Bastard

Prologue

"what do you want, Seb?!" sigaw ko dahil hinila niya ako palayo kay Xavier.

"I thought you said you like me?! You fucking said you like me! Why are you dating that guy?!" he spat out.

Pinilit ko namang tanggalin ang hawak niya sa pulso ko dahil sa sobrang higpit ng hawak niya pero mas lalo lang niya itong hinigpitan.

"Y-you're hurting me." naiiyak kong sabi. Yes, you're hurting me! I'm not talking about his tight grasp on my wrist pero sa bawat araw na kasama ko siya. I am not a fucking masochist! Hindi ko na kaya.

Binitiwan niya yung kamay ko. Yumuko siya at minasahe ang ulo niya.

"I'm sorry." bulong niya pero hindi siya tumitingin sa akin.

"Please don't. Wag mo na ituloy." sabi ko pero umiling siya at binuka ang bibig para magsalita kaya pumikit ako.

I prepared myself for his response. Masasaktan na naman ako sa sasabihin niya. Sana kapag nasaktan ang tao, mawala na lahat ng feelings niya. Ang hirap hirap kasi eh. Sana madaling makarecover sa heartbreak dahil feeling ko mamamatay na ako sa sakit. I feel like I died a million times already. He's killing me... Emotionally.

"I'm sorry-"

"Just let me go."

I cut him off at nakita ko kung paano nalungkot ang mga mata niya. Malungkot? Damn, what am I saying? He doesn't care for me! He wouldn't hurt me if he did.

"No. Break up with that guy." he said and I narrowed my eyes at him. I was going to speak but nagsalita na naman siya

"break up with him or I will be the one to do it." he said.

"what? You can't do that." He can't.. But he's Seb.. Can he? Ugh

Natawa naman siya sa sinabi ko.

"Oh, but baby, you know I can. I'll tell him that you cheated on him. That you kissed me on the yacht." he threatened.

I closed my eyes for a moment and when I opened them, I looked at him in spite.

"why are you so selfish?" I asked but he just walked away.

Goddamn it.
