WRATH | SDS Present ✔ (TO BE EDITED)

Chapter 27

Pagpasok sa unit ay nakita ko si Xavier na naka-higa sa sofa kaya natigilan ako. I slowly walked towards his sleeping state but I quickly stopped myself as I remember what Jago said earlier.

He cheated on me a week after we got married. It's just absurd.

Yes, I understand that he doesn't want this marriage but he chose to commit himself to me and to our daughter so why did he cheat? I can't even believe that he was threatened by that bitch because if he really regrets having an affair, like he always say, he shouldn't have done it in the first place.

I took one last look at him before I went towards my room. Staring at him disgusts me.

"Hey."

Natigilan ako sa pagbukas ng pinto dahil sa inaantok nyang tawag which gave me goosebumps.

"Kumain ka na ba? Tiniran kita ng pagkain." I heard him say before I heard rustles but I remained standing still with my heart starting to ignite.

"What do you want?" Mahina ngunit nanggigigil kong tanong kasabay nang pag-harap ko sa kanya.

Natigilan sya sa pag-lapit sa akin at gulat akong tinignan pero hindi ko pinansin ang pag-daan ng sakit sa mga mata nya dahil naalala ko lang ang pagtataksil nya sa akin at sa anak ko.

"I just want to be here for you." Mahina at seryoso nyang sagot which made me scoff.

"You were not by my side when I needed you the most." I said with acid dripping in my tone and I saw how guilt and regret were splashed in his face.

"I'm sorry--"

"Your sorry's won't bring my baby back to life!" Bahagyang sigaw ko kaya napa-pitlag sya.

"I called you, diba? Ilang beses kitang tinawagan kahit pa ang dapat ko nang tawagan ay ang emergency hotline pero hindi, dahil pinang-hawakan ko yung sinabi mo hindi mo kami papabayaan. You said, you will not let anything bad happen to her and I am fool for believing you!" Sigaw ko before I slightly pushed him but he didn't budge.

This is the first time talking about what happened that day and damn it because it brings back the pain, the memory of pushing out my baby all alone and desperately trying to make her breath.

"Then you expect me to believe that you're really sorry?!" Sarcastic kong sigaw para pigilan ang pag-tulo ng mga luha ko while Xavier is just looking at me with a hurt expression. "Fuck you, Xavier! You were having sex with your mistress while my daughter is dying!" Sigaw ko pa bago sya pinag-papalo sa dibdib and he just let me.

"I was not having sex with her." Mahina nyang sagot habang naka-tingin sa akin kaya tumigil ako bago lumayo then scoffed.

"You really think I'm a fool, huh?!"

"I swear in Doreen's grave--"

"Don't you fucking use my daughter as an excuse for your sins!" Sigaw ko bago mabilis na tumulo ang mga luha ko kaya linapitan nya ako but I just pushed him away.

"I am telling the truth, Danae. I am ending it already but Gwen answered your call and pretended in moaning." Nag-susumamo nyang sabi while trying to reach for me but I just glared at him.

"How can I believe you when you started lying to me since the start of this marriage?" I asked breathlessly while my tears are silently falling. Naibaba nya ang mga kamay nya at natameme.

Humakbang ako palapit sa kanya and tiningala sya para makita nya kung paano ako nasasaktan and damn him for reflecting my eyes.

"I own all of you except your heart and I accepted that because what I only asked from you is to be a father to my daughter but you just betrayed her." Matigas kong sabi kasabay nang pag-uunahan ng mga luha ko sa pagtulo.
