Loving the Broken Hearted Man(COMPLETED)

Chapter 16

"A penny of your thoughts?" Ate Xia asked. Nandito ako ngayon sa bahay nila ni Kuya Nathan. Wala raw siyang kasama eh kaya pinasundo niya ako sa driver nila.

"I'm just curious about Jayce's past ate. Cause all of the people na malapit sakanya they said na his last girl left him unexpectedly. I don't understand why unexpectedly?"

My curiousity is making me anxious each day. Ewan ko ba, pakiramdam ko kapag hindi ko nalaman kong anong meron sa past niya mas guguluhin ako kakaisip araw-araw.

"Bakit hindi mo siya tanungin? You scaredy cat." She said and tapped my back lightly. "Hindi matitigil 'yang pagiging curious mo if you don't asked him directly. Be brave, if he's really pursuing you, he'll opened up."

Tama si ate, but it'll look like na pinapilit ko siyang mag open up. Maybe, i'll just wait for him to open up. It's not my nature to make people open up to me intentionally, I wanted them to open up to me na sila mismo ang magkukusa.

"I'll think about it, Ate. By the way, wala pa ba akong pamangkin?" Atat na tanong ko. Ilang months na silang kasal ni kuya, imposibleng wala pa?

"Alam mo ikaw? Ikaw na lang kaya mag buntis, jusko!" Namumulang sabi ni ate. She's hiding something.

"Are you pregnant ate?" I eyed her. Hindi siya makatingin sa mata ko, it means she's tensed! And she'll gonna spat lies.

"No!" Depensa niya.

"Yes, you are. I am not your sister for nothing, I know you more than other people." I said in my serious tone.

Nakita ko kong paano bumuo ang luha sa mga mata niya. "Hey, ate! Why?" Tarantang tanong ko.

Bigla na lang itong umiyak, is it hormones? Or what? Iyak lang ng iyak si ate that's why I hugged her. "Ate, is there a problem?" I asked ng mahimasmasan siya.

"It's Nathan. He's too busy to his work, sabi niya may meeting siya. Pumunta ako sa office niya the other day, and his secretary said na umalis si Nathan. When I asked kong meeting ba or what ang pinuntahan ang sabi ng secretary niya, hindi." Kwento ni ate habang nilalaro-laro ang mga daliri niya.

"I tried calling him too, but he's not answering. Sa sobrang frustration ko pumunta ako sa mall. And guess what I saw, Nathan carrying a child and there's a woman beside him. They looked like a happy family and the lady kissed Nathan in his lips." Malungkot na sabi ni Ate.

Hindi mag loloko si Kuya Nathan. No, he can't do it. Ngayon pa na kasal na sila ni ate? Ngayon na kong kailan pwede na silang bumuo ng pamilya?

"Huh? Napaka-impossible naman na magloko si Kuya Nathan. Is he have a reason?"

"I can't bear a child, Mau."

My sister's last words makes me worried for her. It's been a week since the last time I saw her. And here I am right now, sa office ni Kuya Nathan. I'm just going to talk to him, wala akong intensyon na sugurin siya or what. Hindi naman ako ang asawa para gawin yun.

"Ma'am Maureen, pwede na po kayong pumasok." Tumayo ako mula sa pagkakaupo sa waiting area at naglakad papsasok sa loob ng office ni Kuya Nathan. I thank the secretary before I finally enter his office.

"Long time no see, Maureen. What brought you here?" Nakangiting bati sa akin ni Kuya Nathan. I smiled back and roam my eyes, I saw a picture of him and a child I bet it's the kid that my ate is talking about.

"I'm just here to asked if I can get my ate, back." I said and plustered a fake smile at him.

"Is that your's?" Sabay turo ko sa batang kasama niya sa picture. I saw how tensed he is, cheaters.

"Maureen, about tha----" I cut his words.

"What about that? Did you know that my Ate saw you with your woman and that kid? And you know what my Ate saw? He saw you and the lady you're with kissing!" Galit na ani ko.

Sabi ko I didn't came here to pick a fight with him. But I can't just stand to see that my ate is hurting because of the man he loved!

"You're married! But why the hell are you with another woman at ang malala pa, with a kid!" I exclaimed.

I may be acting like a mad wife but the hell I care. Ate ko ang pinag-uusapan dito. Hindi namin pinagkatiwala si Ate sakanya para saktan niya lang! Sumumpa siya sa harap ng maraming tao, even to God that he'll take care and love my ate. But what is he doing?! Nakakagalit!

"SHE CAN'T BEAR A CHILD! I WANTED TO BUILD A FAMILY, MAUREEN! SHE CAN'T GIVE ME A FAMILY!" he shouted.

"That's your reason? That's your reason why you're hiding many things thing on her? Do you know how painful it is for her?! Do you know that she's also suffering?! DO YOU KNOW THAT SHE'S PREGANT AND IT'S MIRACLE CAUSE YOU BOTH SAID SHE CAN'T BEAR A CHILD?!" I shouted back.

Natigilan siya sa sinabi ko. Yes, my ate is pregnant. It's almost two months and she's hiding it to her husband. Bakit? Dahil niloloko na siya, he doesn't deserve to know the truth. But my ate doesn't deserve the pain.

"W-what did you said? She's p-pregnant?" He asked me na naguguluhan.

"Yes, she is. But you don't have the right to know about it. If you trully love my ate, you'll stick with her thick or thin. But what did you do? Namangka ka sa ibang ilog, dahil ano? Dahil hindi ka niya mabigyan ng pamilya? Kuya Nathan, alam mo kong gaano kabait ang ate ko! Alam mo kong gaano ka niya ka-mahal, but because of what you did, even me nawalan na ng tiwala sayo." I said that directly to his face. He deserves it, i'm fighting because my ate is being abused emotionally.

"I'm getting my ate back. You can't do anything about it, caused if you will not let my ate go with me. I'll tell my family that you have a mistress. Let my ate rest for now, and don't ever show your face."
