Chapter 40
Articles
Pumasok na si Villa sa sasakyan pag katapos ng tawag. Nag kunwari nalang akong walang narinig dahil wala na rin naman akong pakialam.
Wala nga ba?
Habang tumatakbo ang sasakyan namin ay tahimik kami. Nakatanaw ako sa mga nadadaanan naming mga buildings.
I can still hear my heart beating so fast. I tried to hold it, idiinin ko ang kamay sa dibdib ko para matigil na ang malakas na pag tibok nito pero hindi effective.
"You didn't hear anything."Hindi ko siya tinignan. It's not a question that I need to answer because that's a request.
Yes, of course she knew that I heard her and now she's requesting that? Muntik na akong matawa sa inis. I bit my lower lip to ease the pain and frustration i feel today.
This isn't my year.
"Aella, you must understand me—"
"—don't worry, I understand you."Without looking at her.
She knows what's best for me, just like what I had said she's my manager after all.

Pag karating namin sa Switzerland ay agad kaming dumiretso sa hotel na tutuluyan. Nakatulog ako at nagising na nakikita na ang pag mumukha ng dalawa kung kaibigan.
Pumikit ako ulit."Long no see."I said while half asleep. The tone in voice was husky yet small.
Naramdaman kung umuga ang kama at naramdaman ang pag palo sa pwetan ko. Dahil sa hapdi ay napaupo ako sa kama habang nakayuko at nakapit parin, bumuka lang ang mata ko ng ilang segundo at pumikit ulit habang hinimas-himas ang pwetan ko.
"That hurt."Inis kong sabi habang nakakunot-noo.
Si Shane yung nakita kung nakangisi sa akin. Siya rin yung pumalo sa pwet ko dahil siya lang ang nakaupo dito sa kama, si crystal ay nasa sofa.
"Are you really that tired?"Shane asked her voice were full of irritations.
Tumango ako.
"When's your concert here?"
"Tomorrow."
"We brought you food by the way."
Dahil sa sinabi ni Shane ay nag liwanag ang mga mata ko. I'm starving.
Hindi pa ako nakakain simula nung nakarating kami dito. Nag papahinga din si Villa sa kabilang unit.
Tumingin ako sa Shane and I smiled."I'm starving."At agad na pumunta sa mini table kung nasaan si Crystal.
Tinignan ko isa-isa ang pinami nila. Ang dami.
"Wait, are you sure you can eat that? You need to be fit!"Crystal said.
Natigil pa ako sa pag kain ng chicken wing. Sinamaan ko nalang siya ng tingin at kinain ang chicken wing na hawak ko.
"Slow down, Aella!"
"Baka wala ng mag co-concert bukas, mag dahan-dahan ka nga!"
Hindi ko sila pinakinggan. I miss eating chicken wings and also they brought pizza, mac and cheese and lasagna. Calories!!
It's only one night, just this night let me eat what I want.
Sa kalagitnaan ng pag kain ko ay natigil ako sa tanong ni Crystal. She's holding a phone while frowning.
"Aella, you broke up with him?"She asked looking into my eyes.
I shrugged and continued eating. I slowly losing my appetite pero hindi ko iyon pinahalata.
"Why? What's that?"Shane asked Crystal habang tumabi siya sa pag upo at tumingin narin sa phone.
I bet that's the new article. I haven't read it, I don't know what's happening on the social media world right now because I don't have gadgets as you may know.
And also I avoided it but this two friends of mine...
"Popstar Aella Montiverde and CEO Keane Sanchez broke up."
I continued eating while the two are seriously reading the article about me and Keane.
My stomach got cold and I don't know why I'm sweating. My breathing was not normal.
Itinuko ko ang dalawang kamay sa mesa habang pinipigilan ang sarili. Not now please...I don't want them to worry.
I inhale and exhale normally at mabuti nalang hindi nahalata ng dalawa. Naging normal narin naman ang pag hinga ko pag kalipas ng ilang segundo.
"Mr. keane Sanchez got an accident and got amnesia maybe Miss Aella change her taste after that because Mr. Keane can't recognize her."
"Is that really the true Aella Montiverde? Hindi man lang niya tinulungang makaalala ang boyfriend—kung boyfriend niya talaga. I thought you're kind but I am wrong."
"She's innocent when theirs a camera but she's really a bitch!"
Hindi na ako makakakain ngayon. I tried to hard not to react sa mga comments na binabasa ng dalawa kong kaibigan.
It hurts pero sanay na ako. People on social media only believes on what they read on social media...they don't believe you when you're stating your opinion nor telling the truth they only believe in lies.
"Stop."Sabi ko."Ang lalim na ng gabi baka mapano kayo sa daan."Tumayo ako at niligpit ang kinakain.
"Are you okay?"
I smiled and nodded.
"You aren't okay."
Hindi ko nalang sinagot ang tanong ni Crystal. Natapos ako pag liligpit at humiga nalang ulit ako sa kama.
Staring at the ceiling for almost a minute now ay narinig ko na rin ang kaibigan ko.
"We're staying here, we can't leave you alone while your hurting."Sabi ni Crystal habang humiga sa kama katabi ko.
Humiga narin si Shane sa tabi ko din.
"Rest Aella you have a concert tomorrow better rest."
Rinig kong sabi ni Shane pero binaliwala ko iyon.
"Was he faking his feelings for me?"I asked and the room felt silent."Why is he hurting me so much, did I make him happy if he emotionally hurt me?"I tears I tried to hold on skip and fell.
"Aella..."
"Why am I even fucking crying over him again! His hurting me again and it really broke me!"I covered my face while crying silently.
"Shh, it's okay we're here."Crystal whispered and hugged me.
"I can't tell you to move on, but for now just forget him. Just for now because we know..."Shane also said.
I'm crying over him again, I cried again because of him! Did he really love me in pain?
Loving him is pain in the ass! I love him and I don't know if his feelings for me was legit, now I doubt his feelings for me because he hurt me so bad.
Just hurt me physically but please don't hurt me emotionally kasi mahina ako dyan e, hindi ko kaya yan...
Sumasakit na naman ang dibdib ko. Is this some kind of challenges when you're in love with someone?
Fuck you heart for beating fast when I see his face, this is all your fucking fault.
I heard a ring from a phone. Winala ko ang tabon sa mukha ko at pinunasan ang mukha.
Nagsalubong ang kilay niya habang nakatingin sa amin ni Shane.
"What?"Shane asked.
She bit her lower lip parang nag dadalawang isip na sagutin ang tumawag.
"It's Keane who's calling."
