Twisted Mistake [CURRENTLY RE-WRITING !!! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK]

CHAPTER 26: Set Free

Nung nagising ako sooobrang bigat ng mga mata ko, grabe halos sa sobrang dami kong naiyak wala na kong maiiyak pa.

Chineck ko yung phone ko para makita yung time and 2:48 a.m then I saw 15 messages.

Ung iba galing kay Shane, yung iba naman kay Ryan.

Binasa ko yung kay Shane muna, he's just sending messages to comfort me. Now... Di ko alam kung gusto ko pang basahin yung messages ni Ryan.

Ang sakit nung sinabe nya kagabi... Kaya masakit kasi totoo... The truth hurts... And maybe... I just don't want it shove on my face.

Its like salt rubbing in my open wounds.

Pero Melissa kasalanan mo to... So face it.

You bought this to yourself.

I opened his message and all of it contains one thing,

RYAN: Mell, can we talk? I know what I said is fucked up... But I was just sooo angry. And I do regret calling you a whore, so please? Can we talk?

He wants to talk...

Kakausapin ko ba sya?

I mean... Ugh!!! Yeah... I think we should talk.

ME: I'LL BE WAITING IN ROOM NUMBER 4

Then suddenly there's a knock on the door, well that was fast.

Tumakbo ako sa cr and washed my face, just to make sure that I look presentable. Then went to answer the door, when I opened the door I saw a tired looking Ryan shows up.

"Come in." Pinapasok ko sya and umupo kami sa couch sa sala, nakatitig lang ako sakanya and he looks so tired and troubled... And its my fault.

"Look Melissa I'm... I'm sorry. I'm sorry for bursting out like that, for calling you a whore and for everything but you know where I'm coming from right?" He looked at me in the eyes, "You... You broke my heart." He said in pain.

I did.

"And I was just so... Angry... Pissed... Because you cheated and it was your best friend's boyfriend... You stabbed me in the back."

I did.

Ryan run both of his hands on his face, "I'm just... So lost right now. Why him Mell?" He finally asked.

"Nearly 5 months ago, I was here in Bora. Gusto ko kasing ma try mag travel alone, I was just doing fine then I met this guy." I looked at him, he deserve to know the truth.

"Eric?"

Umiling ako, "No, it was Shane, si Shane talaga yung nakilala ko. Pinipilit kasi ako ni Katie na sabihin yung name nung guy and since nung time na yun nalaman ko na boyfriend nga ni Katie si Shane I said his name was Eric to cover it up. We had a fun night, it was just supposed to be one night but nung bumalik ako sa Manila we kept in touch, nag uusap kami sa text and tumatawag din sya. But I asked him once... If he was single... He said yes."

"But... He's not..."

"He lied to me."

Nakatitig lang sakin ni Ryan parang nag iisip kung ano yung tamang wirds na dapat nyang sabihin, "So nung nalaman ko na nagsinungaling sya... I hated him. Iniiwasan ko sya, tinatarayan ko sya but still even though I'm doing all that... Deep down... I knew I like him... But I shouldn't... 'Cause he's my best friend's boyfriend... I don't know... I just... Fell." Nakatitig lang ako sa mga kamay ko, ayaw ko kasi syang tinignan.

Ano payung mukang maihaharap ko diba?

I've broken the ultimate taboo... God I feel so worthless right now.
