Breach Of Trust 50
50I stayed there for a few more minutes before going out. I don't want anyone to see us leaving there ng sabay! It was a comfort room for a girl, tapos lalabas siya? Ghad! Mababaliw ako kakaisip sa pwedeng isipin ng mga makakakita.When I came out, I saw him outside. I wanted to run away, but he was right outside the door, as if he knew I might think of running away.Wala akong nagawa kung hindi ang sumama sa kanya, walang nagawa? Really, Aliyah? Aminin mo, gusto mo rin. Haist! Napabuntong hininga na lang ako sa naisip ko.I was silent while in his car. I don't know where we are going. He just kept glancing at me while driving.I glanced at him and remembered what he said. She doesn't have a fiancé. Is that true? But how did that happen? Kaye was with him then, and I remembered last night what Zoren asked; the question and what he said indicated that they were together.Mukhang napansin niya ang tingin ko sa kanya kaya sumulyap siya sa'kin. Napaiwas ako ng tingin at muling bumuntong

51"What happened?" Bella asked weakly as Maddix finally left. Seji is watching me; she's just quiet. Alam ko na nagtataka at nagugulat na siya, but I'm thankful that she didn't ask anything right now.Napatitig ako sa dinaan ni Maddix sa pag-alis niya. Seryoso ba siya? Mariin ang kagat ko sa labi at malalim na bumuntong hininga. Shempre, Aliyah. Seryoso siya!They were in a boutique, and Maddix took me there. After that, Maddix didn't talk anymore; he didn't even glance. I want to cry. That's what I want, na mawalan siya sa'kin ng pakealam, but to think that he's willing to ignore me makes me want to cry. He loves me. He really does. Now, the one question in my mind was answered a while ago: Kung bakit hindi niya ako dinawit at sinumbong sa pulis? He loves me. Ayaw niyang masira ako kaya mas gugustuhin niyang siya ang masira. Mali nanaman ako. Bakit iniisip niya pa rin ang kapakanan ko? Bakit kailangan niya akong mahalin ng ganoon? I don't deserve that."Can we go home, Bella? I'm s

52"Wala pa raw. Hindi pa siya umuuwi." My shoulders dropped when I heard that from Bella. I'm talking to her via video call.Ilang araw na talaga na wala akong balita kay Maddix. He really serious. "I think he really wants to give you time just like you want. Hayaan mo na muna siya. Kasal na namin next week, I'm sure he will be there," Bella tried to assure me."What if makahanap nga talaga siya ng iba?" Tanong ko, pero narinig ko ang tawa ng nasa tabi niya. I think it's Wendell."Try Maddix Villaranza, Aliyah," I heard Wendell voice, hanggang sa magpakita ito sa sa tabi ni Bella."Kunting lambing lang doon, kakaripas yun pabalik sayo," he said.Napanguso ako."Yeah, right, Aliyah. Galingan mo na lang," si Bella naman iyon at sinabayan pa niya ng pagkindat, then she said the kama, pero walang tunog.I shook my head but also smiled. I said my goodbyes to them because I had some work to finish. Next week will be Bella's wedding, so I have to finish my other work, especially since I as

53He's annoying! What's that? He really wants me to allow Zoren to court me? Wala. Binalayaan ko nga, pero wala pa rin. He didn't come home. He didn't show him to me. I frowned, leaning my head against the window of Verd's car. We are going to Tagaytay right now for Bella's wedding. My cousin and I used the same car, except for Bella, because she was there first with her parents.Hindi ko mapigilang iuntog ang ulo ko ng mahina sa bintana ng kotse ni Verd."He'll definitely be going tomorrow for Bella's wedding. Stop being dramatic, Liyah. Kasalanan mo rin naman yan," said Jero, who was next to me. I looked at him, annoyed."Being dramatic? It's been 2 weeks at mahigit, Jero! And yes, inaamin ko na na kasalanan ko, pero bakit natitiis niya ako?" Parang batang tanong ko.Nagkatinginin si Verd at Xian at sabay pang napa-iling."I really can't imagine myself being in love. It's disgusting," Verd said at nagkunwaring parang naduduwal pa kaya inis na inihagis sa kanya ang yakap-yakap kong

54The awkwardness of the surroundings prevailed. I blinked and couldn't help but look at Maddix. Naging hilaw ang ngiti niya, pero nakatingin pa rin kay Tito. Tito is now staring at me, kunot na rin ang noo niya at napasulyap kay Maddix, mukhang ngayon lang napansin ni Tito na mas umikli ang buhok nito kaya sumulyap ukut siya sa'kin. Pinanlalakihan na niya ako ng mata.Xian and Verd are now giving me a bad look. I heard Bella laughing next to me. Napatikhim ako at binitawan ang kutsara ko."I-I mean, si Xian po ang may pangit ang hairstyle," mabilis na sambit ko.Nabilaukan si Xian sa sinabi ko dahil umiinom ito nang sabihin ko iyon. Tinuro niya ang sarili."Bakit ako?" Bulong nito na kahit hindi ko narinig ay nabasa ko labi niya. Hindi napigilan ni Jero tawanan si Xian. Pekeng tawa ang binigay ni Tito Peter at saka sinulyapan si Maddix."Si Xian pala," natatawang sambit pa niya, pero rinig na rinig na pilit na tawa iyon."Tumigil na nga kayo. Come here, Maddix. Sumabay ka na sa'min

55Kaye was also smiling at tumingkayad pa para hawakan ang buhok ni Maddix. Napaiwas ako ng tingin at napasulyap na lang kay Zoren."Bukas pa ang uwi namin. May inuman daw mamaya saka bonfire, pupunta ka?" Zoren said.I tried to act normal. "Titignan ko. Sige. May gagawin pa ako," mabilis na sambit ko na lang at umalis na kahit na rinig ko ang pagpigil niya sa'kin. Halos matawa ako sa sarili ko sa subrang inis nang maramdaman ko ang pagpatak ng luha ko habang paalis doon. Why I even crying? Ano naman kung mukha siyang masaya habang kausap iyong ex fiance niya? Ano naman kung nagpagupit siya para sa ex fiance niya? Ano naman sayo, Aliyah. Don't acting like a child, Aliyah! In wedding reception, mas lalong nag-asim ang mukha at nararamdaman ko nang makitang nakuha ni Kaye ang bulaklak at si Maddix naman ang nakakuha ng garter. I know it's just a fucking game, but hearing some of the people cheering them on made me want to cry again.I even heard someone na bagay sila at may iba na n

56Taranta akong bumaba sa kama, pero sa taranda kong pagbaba sa kama ay nagkacramps ako at hindi maiwasang mapadaing."Shit! Ahh!" Ungol ko at tuluyang napaupo sa sahig. Hinawakan ko ang paa ko at hindi muna ginalaw. Napasulyap siya sa'kin at napapikit."Maddix," I called him softly. He sighed and came closer to me, but when he got closer, pero nang makalapit na siya ay medyo maayos na ang paa ko.Nang malapit siya ay hinawakan niya ang paa ko. Kunot ang noo siyang nakatingin sa paa ko. I bit my lips while staring at him. Bumaba ang ang mata ko sa labi niya, mukhang napansin niya ang patitig ko sa mata niya kaya sumulyap siya sa'kin. Nakagat ko ang labi bago magsalita."I'm having cramps. Can you carry me back in my bed? It still hurts," I said softly, but the truth is that's just my excuse. I just want him to carry me. I don't want him to leave me here and go back down there.Nandoon si Kaye, dapat nandito siya kasi nandito ako. I bit my lower lip again while thinking about it. Tala

57"Hinila lang ako ni Bella. Wala naman talaga akong planong sumama sa inuman," pagpapaliwanag ko at biglang nabitin dahil tuluyan nang tumigil ang kamay niya."Maddix!" Bulyaw ko, pero masyado ng galit ang tingin niya sa'kin."Naupo sa tabi mo yung lalakeng mukhang paa na 'yun tapos malalaman kong wala kang suot na bra?" Hindi makapaniwalang sambit niya at talagang galit na galit na siya.Nakagat ko ang labi ko at bigla kong narinig sa tenga ko ang boses ni Bella. "Isubo mo," Bella's said that in my mind. Napapikit ako at hindi maiwasang matawa."What's funny?" "Galit ka?" Parang tangang tanong ko sa kanya."Sinong hindi magagalit? Lumabas kang walang suot na bra, ang raming lalake roon, Aliyah! Paano kung napansin nila?" Frustrated na sambit niy sa'kin."Hindi naman nila mahahawakan. Ikaw lang naman ang hahayaan kong hahawak," sambit ko na pinagsisihan ko dahil mas lalo itong nagalit."Kung ganokn ayos lang na makita yan iba? You know what? Let's stop this!" Galit na sambit niya,
