Haven't met you yet: https://youtu.be/1AJmKkU5POA

I'm not surprised
Not everything lasts
I've broken my heart so many times
I stopped keepin' track
Talk myself in
I talk myself out I get all worked up
Then I let myself down

I tried so very hard not to lose it
I came up with a million excuses I thought,
I thought of every possibility

And I know someday that it'll all turn out You'll make me work so we can work to work it out
And I promise you kid, that I'll give so much more than I get
I just haven't met you yet

We were both in silence inside his car. After he calmed me he offers to drive me home. My eyes was on the way only while enjoying Michael Buble's songs. I really loved the song but I much prefer to listen on Eion singing it. Tuwing dadating na sa chorus ang kanta ay sinasabayan niya ito.

I secretly glanced at him. He's so handsome. I like his nose, his eyes and I love his reddish lips. Ugggh!

"Stop glimpsing to my lips." he said and I gulped. I look at the window and close my eyes. Oh my ghad! I didn't even seen him glanced at me so how did he know I was examining his face? I remember the times he kissed me. Fuck stop it Aziel!

My eyes widen when he stop the car. My heart was racing and beating so fast. I bit my lips and I was breathing deeply. "Look at me." he command. I slowly look at him and our eyes met.

His forehead creased and he looked at me questionable. I'm sure that I was starting to like him, medyo marupok but I know I can't. I will get hurt knowing that he doesn't like developing feelings towards woman. That's awful.

"Why?" he asked and I quickly shook my head.  I heard him giggling and I look at him. "Why are you laughing?" I asked but his forehead just creased and pointed his self. "Did I?" he asked. I bit my lip to stop myself from smiling. This fucking Eion Acrisius is driving me crazy.

I nodded. He eyed me and went his eyes back on the way. He started the engine and continue driving. "I think you should always smile." I said. He glanced at me for split seconds. "Eh?"

"I always seen you with no emotions but now I saw you giggle and it was nice seeing you smile. You're looking more a-attractive." I stated that made him gulped. I smiled.

"Be with me." He mumbled. My eyes automatically widen but I'm not sure if I heard it right. "You are the reasons to this smile." he added that made my jaw drop. He pullover his car in one side.

I was breathing deeply again and I felt like my oxygen was taking away from my lungs. My eyes widen when I saw him lean to me. Our faces was just inches away and I felt his lips touch mine. It was quick, very quick but I was lost in it.

"Don't talk again, you're disturbing me." he said while looking straight to my eyes. "Once you opened your mouth and say a word I'll keep on punishing you." his eyes are still on mine. "P-punishment?" I asked.  "One word, one kiss." he added. I immediately put my hands on my mouth and look at the other side. I saw him smiled again.

Fuck off Eion! Don't make me drown in you. I know you will not catch me if I fall.

After that I shut up my mouth and just enjoy listening to the radio until his car stop in front of my house. I bit my lip and glanced at him, his eyes are on the way. I cleared my throat to get his attention and he look at me.

"T-thank you for the ride." I said while looking at the air ventilation of his car . I saw at my peripheral vision that he nodded. I look at him and met his eyes. It was tantalizing.

"I thought you're allergic to womens?" I asked nowhere. I bit my lips after realizing what did I asked. I quickly unbuckling the seatbelt and open the door. I was about to run but he gently pull my wrist.

"You're an exemption." he answer that made my lips parted.

I quickly get inside our house but too my surprise I saw my Dad tightly pulled my Mom in her arms. I automatically put my hands on my mouth. My heart was pounding again and it was beating triple times in my normal heart rate.

"How dare you cheated to me Ariella!" he shouted and pushed my Mom in the couch. She automatically fell. I gasped. "You're such an asshole! After I married you-

"Married me?" Mom repeated and I saw how she burst in tears. I pittied her. "Married me for my dignity?!" she exclaimed that made my eyes widen. W-what are they talking about?

"We both know that you just marry me for my dignity. You just married me after you raped me-

My jaw drop. Hindi niya na naituloy ang sasabihin niya 'nung biglang mag angat ng kamay si Daddy. "Stooop!" I shouted while my tears are keep on running down my cheeks. They are both surprised seeing me. I rush to my Mom and hugged her. I'm gasping.

My Dad immediately went outside while carrying his things. I look at my Mom and she's shaking in nervous. I quickly get water from the kitchen and held it to her. She get it and drink. After a couple of minutes when I make sure she's calm I face her.

"Ma, I'm sorry." I said but she just shook her head. Bagsak ang mga balikat ko habang nakikita siyang umiiling at tuloy tuloy sa pag iyak. Eion is right. Maybe I should hear her explanation before I became mad at her.

She wiped her tears. "I'm sorry I didn't tell." she started. "Then tell me everything." I said and she sighed.

"Jero is my first love. We bacame lovers for more than 3 years. We are both comfortable with each other and when he was about to introduce me to his family and planned to get married, something just happened. It was your granny's birthday when they invited me. I didn't drink liquor but that night after I drink juices I felt dizzy." she started. I was just listening while my heart was beating rapidly.

"The next morning I wake up and I was sleeping next to your Dad, to Vince. That day everythings turns out. I was nothing. H-he drugged me and raped me." he continued while crying. I clinched my fist in anger. My Mom doesn't deserve this.

"Your granny said I should marry Vince instead of Jero. And after we got married he always hit me especially when he saw Jero and me. Even when I'm carrying you inside my tummy he's still punching me." she said and I can't help but to cry even more. This is too much.

"Did you know why Jero and I still seeing each other?" she asked but I shook my head.

"We don't cheated. We just loving each other secretly. B-because of you." she said that made my forehead creased.
"We discovered something." she paused and look at my eyes.

"That Jero," she paused and I breath deeply. My tears began to fall again and I was gasping.

"That Jero is your real Dad Aziel."
