BILLIONAIRE'S SERIES #1 : BILLIONAIRE'S WIFE

CHAPTER 25

"I know I'm at fault. I'm sorry." mahinang sambit nito. Di siya umimik at nanatili lang nakatayo. Zion stood up and hugs her tight saka kumalas at pinahiran ang mga luha niya.

"Maybe Them was right, other people was right. All this happenings between us means we're not supposed to be like this. Pirmahan mo yung divorce papers para matapos na ito. Zion alam mo kung anong nararamdaman ko sa sarili ko? Awa! Naaawa ako sa sarili ko dahil hindi ko man lang kayang ipagtanggol ito sa iba. Ikaw may pamilya ka na kapag may problema ka andiyan sila. Eh ako? Wala, ang gusto ko lang makalaya sa lugar na ito. Maramdaman ko yung pakiramdam na  hindi ako naiipit at inaalipusta dahil kinasal ako sa isang mayamang may ibang karelasyon. Ayokong isipin ng ibang tao na pabigat ako, ampon ako, wala akong kwenta at higit sa lahat dagdag problema. Oo nga at may shares ako sa kompanya mo, pero sapat ba iyon? Sa tingin mo maniniwala ang mga tao? Eh ampon nga ako diba? A stupid orphan with nothing!" bulalas niya saka pinahid ang mga luhang tumutulo sa mga mata niya.

Niyakap siya nito ng mahigpit saka bumuhos ang samu't saring emosyon at napahagulhol na lamang siya sa balikat nito.

"I'm sorry. If you feel alone all this time, its my fault. I am to blame with it. Just don't stay away from me again! I wasn't supposed to be saying this but I feel like I am being broken piece by piece seeing you far away from me."  mahinang sambit ng lalaki sa tenga niya.

Did she hear it right? What does he mean by it?

"I made mistakes and I can't control myself everytime I feel disappointed and angry. I have a very bad temper. Kung hindi ko inuna ang galit hindi ito mangyayari. I'm sorry kung nahirapan ka nang dahil sa akin at sa sitwasyon natin. I'm so sorry!" mahinang usal ni Zion saka siya nito niyakap ng mahigpit. "Look, Aya!" wika nito saka kumalas sa pagkakayakap at tumingin sa kanya. Pinahid pa nito ang mga luha niyang tumutulo sa pisngi niya. "I know it's too late but I want you to know na hindi ako nagsisisi na makilala ka, don't think of yourself as a burden to anyone. Huwag mong isipin na pabigat ka kasi hindi ka ganun. You are a treasure to be treasured. You know that right? You are something that made me felt attractive to you. Habang nakikita kita na umiiwas sa akin naiinis ako sa sarili ko for doing stupid things that hurts you a lot. Just stay who you are and stay with me! I will do everything to stop the things  from happening. Them ain't part of it and I want to put you in assurance that I mean everything I say."

Nalilitong tumingin si Aya rito. Nagtatanong ang mga mata niyang nakatingin rito.

"Why are you saying that to me? Alam mo? Hindi tayo bagay sa isa't isa. You came from a rich family and I am not. I am not worth it for you and you to me. Just sign the divorce kasi ayoko na. Pagod na ako. Chairman would understand right?" Umiiyak na sambit niya.

"In a relationship it doesn't matter if ypu had different status in life, what's important is the love. Just let me prove one thing before I sign the divorce. Will you please, after I can prove it to myself I'll let you go. I don't want to be confused with my feelings but I think I'm.....I'm.... falling for you!"

Hindi agad siya nakapagsalita at tinitingnan ang kaharap kung seryuso ito o dinadaya lang siya ng pandinig niya.

"I didn't realize that it happened to me buy when I woke up one day I fall for you and I don't know how! I don't know why! I just did!" wika nito saka napailing at mapaklang tumawa. "I am such a stupid man for keeping these feelings for you! I did all those things without knowing you're hurt.  I am stupid and a fool for hurting you and being selfish to myself."

Tumigil ito at hinintay na sumagot siya. Did he mean it? Hindi siya naniniwala at gusto niyang umiwas rito gaya ng sinabi ni Sem sa kanya. She can't bear with it anymore. Ayaw na niya, kung Maniniwala siya she would be more hurt.
