"Ayokong ako ang lalabas na masama. N-na ako ang may kasalanan. This is nuts!" singhal ko sa kanya.


Lumapit ako sa lamesa niya para titigan siya ng matalim. A stare that is cutting him alive. Biglang nag-init ang buong katawan ko. Naga-alab ako sa sobrang galit!


He poked the side of his cheek with his tounge while nodding a little. Nagi-isip ata. He raised a brow at me before playing with a pen in his right hand.


"Exactly why I'm telling you to be involve in this. Put yourself on a thin ice, I won't mind, but we are talking about the sanctity of marriage here. Hindi ito answer sheet lang na pwede mong itapon anytime of the day when you felt doing so. We need to sift on this marriage carefully so we can void it without getting drossy. The results will tail us forever" pagpapaliwanag niya.


He just shrugged confidently. Bakit parang ang dami niya namang sinasabi ngayon? Huminga ako ng malalim bago umupo ulit sa harap niya. Padabog kong niyakap ang bag ko.


"Unless you don't want to" he scowled.


I scoffed. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay bago nilingon. Gago ba siya?!


"You know what, let's just do this, Mr. Leviste so we can fucking stop doing this. I don't really care anymore" I whispered before giving him a disgusted smile.


I'm starting to lose the capacity to endure his trouble and delays. Nawawala na din ata ang delicadeza ko.


I stayed in his office for an hour. Nakakainis lang dahil minu-minuto ata may sinasagot siyang tawag. Architect ba talaga siya o call center agent?


"So, we're taking one lawyer for now?" tanong ko sa kanya. Tumango siya.


"Yes. For now, it's connivance but soon I'll get another lawyer to separately handle our case"


Tumango ako. We still need to work on a lot of aspects. Considering the poor justice system in the Philippines, I somehow accepted that it will take a long time for us to get what we want. I will force myself to take on his presence again.


Binigay ko din ang number ko kay Ken. Of course, there's no other way for us to communicate. It's ridiculous to think that we're getting each other's number again.


"Alis na ako" sabi ko at kinuha na ang gamit ko.


Kumunot ang noo ko nang bigla siyang tumayo at dumiretso sa pintuan. I literally assumed that he wanted to open the door for me but no, lumabas lang talaga siya.


Nanliit ang mga mata ko nang pabalibag niya iyong sinarado leaving me completely alone inside. Sunugin ko bahay niyo e. Tsk!


Tumayo nalang ako para lumabas na din ng office niya. He was standing beside the door, one hand inside the pocket while talking to someone over the phone. He gave me a cold glance after noticing my presence.
