When The Heart Fails (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 18

CHAPTER 18 | DRAGGED

Iniwan ako ni Race na mag-isa sa inuupuan. Kailangan na niyang umalis kaya hindi ko na siya pinigilan. At least kahit sa ngayon man lang ay nagpaalam siya.

Napakatanga ko sa parteng umasa na mahal niya din ako. Bakit niya ba kasi ako nagawang paasahin sa harap ng mga tao? Kahit sariling kaibigan ay unti-unti kong tinatraydor dahil sa mga nararamdaman.

I just want him to tell me if he has feelings for me. But it turns out he just wanted me to forgive him so the past won't haunt him again.

Is this how life works?

Hindi ko namalayan kung gaano ako katagal nakatulala sa kalangitan. Dumidilim na at hindi ko inaasahang mabilis lang dumaan ang oras.

I'm not mad with Race because he's just true to his feelings. If he don't have feelings for me, then I should stop loving him too.

There are so many questions that needs answers. My parents are not an exemption for me to not feel mad about them. All these years they are just trying to hide the biggest mistake they did in life.

My heart is so heavy that I wanted to cry but there's no shoulder that I can cry on to.

I calmed myself before walking back to the plaza. I forgot that Clark was there and so as my things. I feel so weak about this. I thought I can handle my problems easily, but it's the opposite of that.

"Bea?" I came back to my senses when Clark appeared in front of me while I was still walking on the sidewalk.

"Clark?" my voice suddenly cracked after I saw him.

"Saan ka ba galing? Kanina pa kita hinahanap. Ano bang nangyari sayo?" Clark's voice is worried about me.

I sighed heavily after I shook my head. I tried looking up to the sky while the dark is now slowly coming.

"Nothing," I lied.

But Clark isn't satisfied with my answer and suddenly hugged me tightly. It feels like he knew something is not fine with me.

I can't help myself but to cry again. I'm crying while hugging Clark.

"Everything will be fine soon, Bea. Tahan ka na," Clark said those words and assured me that everything will be fine.

Tears flowed from my eyes while his hug tightened and made my face to hide on his shoulder.

He's not my bestfriend for nothing. At sa oras na inaakala kong walang nakakaintindi saakin ay pinaramdam niyang sapat na siya upang ako'y mapakalma.

We stayed like that for minutes before I became calm. I asked Clark to sit with me on a quiet sidewalk.
