Circles Series #1: Loving You is Healing Me [ON-GOING]

"Am I too late, Kyla? Hindi na ba talaga ako?" I stopped from walking when he spoke again. I was stiffened, shocked, of what he has said. I feel his pain through the words.

"Matagal na 'yon, James. Please stop bringing it back. We don't live there anymore." I told him, trying to catch his eyes with my gaze.

"'Yun na nga, e." Tumingin siya sa akin, nakangiti nang mapakla. "Matagal na, pero hanggang ngayon, nahihirapan pa rin ako."

Nagsalubong ang mga kilay ko. "Why are you acting like-"

"Until now, it still hurts like hell." He cut me off. "I still want you. I still miss you. I still love you. It still hurts me to see you in the arms of another man, Janella. I hope it's me. I hope.." He didn't finish his words because tears started to flow from his eyes.
