"Ganyan ka na lang?" Duane said while giving me another glass of water "Putang ina Ethan, baba-"

"Don't say that she's just a woman. I didn't just lose her, I lost my entire life." Despite being drunk, I can still feel how painful it is, I am still conscious of what's happening around me.

Duane still cleaning the mess I did upon entering his condo unit. I went out with my boys tonight, they were able to drive me home but I went to Duane's condo because I don't want to be alone. Baka maka-isip lang ako ng isang bagay na hindi maganda.

I was left with no choice, I love Gabby I really do but I love my mom as well and I know that if I choose Gabriella over her para ko na ring pinatay ang mommy ko and I can't afford to witness her downfall just because I choose love over her. I never thought that I can be both selfless and selfish at the same time.

We don't have anything to do with our parents past pero bakit tila kami ang nagbabayad ng mga nangyari sa kanila. I know that Gabriella's Dad was doing that just to get even with my mom and dad. That stupid moron, I never thought that monsters can be human.

"Bukas na lang tayo mag-usap pag matino ka na." He said giving me a glass of water again. "Putang ina, susuka ka pa ba?" If I'm just in my normal state I will punch this scumbag right on his face.

Humiga ako sa couch and gently closed my eyes I heard Duane still saying something but I did not manage to answer back because I felt really dizzy so I fell asleep.

I woke up the other day still feelong the pain inside my heart, parang wala ng katupasan. What should I do now with my life?

"I heard you have a modeling offer ha." Bryan said before drinking her orange Juice.

He helps me look for a land where I can start up my company. From the shares I had with Gino, I can continue it with my own. I also have investors waiting for this, Gino really messed up but I was able to gain our previous investor's trust and they are still willing to help me once I build my own company.

"I don't have time for that, can't you see I'm going back to the scratch."

"Sungit. Tanggapin mo kaya 'no malay mo someday 'yun pa maging way para magtagpo ulit kayo ni Gabby." He said.

That hits differently but wanting to prove something to everyone, I still did not accept the offer to me. I strived really hard to put up my own company. It wasn't easy, I struggled a lot, and it was a tough journey, there was a lot of failure and rejection plus the feeling of something is missing and you can't do anything to fill that emptiness, it was exhausting but I believe I can do this.

"I have a girlfriend," I said when someone tried to flirt with me in a bar, I didn't even look at her.

Padabog siyang umalis sa pwesto namin.

"Girlfriend?" Bryan asked and smirked. "Hanggang kailan mo sasabihing may girlfriend ka?"

"Hanggang sa magkabalikan kami or kung hindi man hanggang sa maka move on ako but I think that's not gonna happen." I said and drink the alcohol in my glass.

"Hangga't duwag ka to sacrifice your mom, you will never get her back."

"Look who's talking about cowardice," I said while smirking.

Days had passed and nothing changed. Para akong gumigising at humihingi dahil kailangan, hindi ko na maintindihan.

"Have you thought about it, Ethan? My offer is still up." Mama Han asked me after 3 years of rejecting her offer to me.
