WRATH | SDS Present ✔ (TO BE EDITED)

Chapter 29

I slightly curled my short bob hair and just by looking myself in the mirror makes me wanna cry. I never imagined myself to be this broken up to the point, I changed.

But one's thing for sure, I will never love Xavier again. The pain he caused me made my heart irreparable and no matter what he do, he can't win me back.

I wiped my tear before I tucked the shorter side of my hair then I took my handbag and went out. Naabutan ko si Xavier na nagluluto pero hindi ko sya pinansin at nagtuloy-tuloy lang sa paglalakad but I was stopped when he blocked his body in the front door so I glared at him.

"Move out of my way, Xavier. I'm already late." Inis kong sabi sa kanya but he just shook his head.

Sandali naman akong na-distract dahil naka-sando lang sya habang naka-patong ang isang beige checkered apron rito. Maybe if I am the old Daniella, I already blushed but I am not anymore so I quickly returned my eyes in his face.

"It's just quarter to 7, Danae. Let's eat first then I'll let you go." Sabi nya kaya tinaasan ko sya ng kilay. "To your work, of course." Naka-ngiti nyang dagdag which just made my brow shot up more. 

"You think I'll follow you?" Sarcastic kong tanong before crossing my arms.

Ngumiti naman sya lalo at ginaya ang posisyon ko kaya nag-uumpisa na akong mairita sa kanya.

"I am not ordering you, Danae. I am just asking you to join me for breakfast." He said in a matter-of-fact tone kaya mas nairita lang ako.

"Wala namang mawawala kung sasamahan mo akong kumain." Dagdag pa nya. "O baka naman masyado kang naga-gwapuhan sa akin kaya ayaw mo akong masyadong nakikita." Naka-ngisi nyang sabi kaya mabilis nag-dikit ang mga kilay ko.

This is the first time he boasted like this. Parang hindi si Xavier ang kaharap ko. Nahawa na ata sya sa magaling kong kakambal na sobrang bilib sa sarili.

"Dream on." Inis kong sabi bago sya tinalikuran para pumunta sa dining table.

I can't believe he made me follow him. Well, I just did this para hindi na nya isipin na masyado akong nagpapa-apekto sa kanya dahil hindi naman. To me, he is now just the man who hurted me and killed my daughter.

"Breakfast is served." He said lively before he gave me a plate.

I rolled my eyes before I took a toast and a strip of bacon. I felt his stare kaya tinignan ko sya and he is just looking at me with a pursed lips.

"What?" Iritado kong tanong kaya natauhan sya at umayos.

"May sinangag. Diba you like it?" Sabi nya sabay usog sa akin ng mangkok ng fried rice.

"I don't like it anymore. I will gain more weight. Ni hindi pa nga ako nakakapag-gym." Inis kong sabi before continued eating.

"Hindi ka naman ganoon tumaba. You're still slim." Natigilan ako at tinignan sya nang nakataas ang isa kong kilay kaya sandali syang nagulat.

"I am not slim, okay? My body is a perfect hourglass shape. I have the right curves so don't you ever call me slim. I am not like that mistress of yours." Gigil kong sabi kaya nanlaki ang mga mata nya at agad na umiling.

"I am not comparing you to her, Danae." Agap nyang sabi but I just rolled my eyes. "I didn't mean to imply that. I just wanted to say that you're still.." He trailed off before he cleared his throat then look everywhere but my eyes.

"What, Xavier?" Iritado kong tanong kaya tinignan nya ako at nakita ko ang pamumula ng mukha nya.

"Sexy." He mumbled and I almost didn't heard him.
