Say That You Love Me Chapter 22: Nakakapagduda
Chapter 22I had no choice but to stay inside the house for a damn while. I tried talking to Markus, but it was only for a few minutes. I’m so baffled by the fact that I only get to talk to him for a few minutes when I should’ve talked to him more than should!Pero kahit ganoon, I’m so happy that he’s fine. Hindi naman siya binugbog, but there was still bruises evident on his face. Sinubukan kong humingi ng tawad, but he kept on insisting that he’s at fault anyway. Hindi ko siya maintindihan dahil doon, but we both kept the conversation clear and short. Matapos noon ay hindi na rin ako muling nakatawag. I was either crying myself or simply trying to figure out things dahil mababaliw na yata talaga ako rito.Chester and I haven’t been talking for almost a week. Although he assists me often, he was always silent. At ayaw ko rin naman siyang kausapin. I’d rather talk to the wall than understand his bullshits.We’ve never stayed in the same room at night again. I just couldn’t bear it. An
Say That You Love Me Chapter 23: Everything's Made-up
Is he… for real?“Reese is kind and charming, Chester. I mean, it's not that I still like him–”“I know–”“It’s just that I’ve known him ever since! He’s kind and always sympathetic. Kaya ko nga siya ginawang boyfriend noon!”Chester sighed and tucked the loose strands of my hair behind my ear. “People change, Paris. Besides, after years of being in prison and having his reputation ruined, I don’t believe he’d still be the saint that you thought him to be.”Wala akong nagawa kundi bumuntonghininga at tumango. I’m aware of that though. “That’s Dad’s fault anyway. At kasalanan ko rin–!”“What? How in the world is it your fault?” he asked in annoyance. “It was too ambitious for him to want you. That was his sin.”My lips parted at his answer. Hindi ko tuloy alam kung anong mararamdaman ko dahil doon! Damn you, Chester!“Stop it,” nakangusong sabi ko at saka nag-iwas ng tingin. I heard him smirk a bit bago muling nagsalita tungkol sa issue.“Anyway, I’ll have it under control. Just please
Say That You Love Me Chapter 24: Reese
“How are you feeling?” Chester asked after I handed him the glass of water.Mabigat ang loob na umiling na lang ko at binigyan siya ng ngiti. After what happened earlier, he immediately took me home. I never passed out, pero parang mas lalo lang nakasama iyon dahil hindi nawala sa isip ko ang mga nangyari at nasabi ng Daddy.I feel like I’m about to explode anytime now. My mind’s so messed up, and the problems kept adding up. I don’t know if I could take more. I want to just rest. I want to just leave. I’m so tired of all the secrets and lies na ngayo’y sabay-sabay lumalabas at sinasabi sa akin. Why didn’t they have the urge to tell me the truth in the first place?They just want me to end up miserable, don’t they?“Paris, what’s going on in that little head of yours, hmm?” Chester asked as he stroked my hair and held my head near his chest. “Please tell me,” he said.I breathed so heavily and hugged him tightly. I badly want to cry ero parang tuluyan nang naubos ang luha ko at naman
Say That You Love Me Chapter 25: Accident
“Chester,” Mister Del Fuego greeted me as I approached him. He was waiting outside for a long time now, but I don’t give a fuck. After what I Paris’ bodyguards reported to me, there’s no way I’d let him inside. After all, I was never on his side anyway. If only he wasn’t the father of the woman I love, I’d never get along with him and his antics.I breathed heavily and stood face to face with him, hindi gustong magpaligoy-ligoy pa. “She’s okay now,” I said, which made him sigh in relief. No matter how much he hides it, I know there’s a part of him that deeply cares for his daughter. Too much care that he almost wants to control her, never letting her out of his sight. “I’m going inside,” aniya subalit hindi ko iyon hinayaan.“But she doesn’t want to see you,” asik ko. “So I can’t let you, Sir.” I did my best to maintain my respect, but it’s fucking harder than it sounds. Lalo na ngayong pakiramdam ko’y magpupumilit pa siyang pumasok sa loob dahil halata ko iyon sa pagkunot ng kanya
Say That You Love Me Chapter 26: More of the Lies
“What the fuck happened?!” I could almost taste blood as I run downstairs, trying to fucking call everyone I know that should be around the accident.Fucking shit!After hearing from Chancellor’s bodyguard what happened, I didn’t fucking care at first. But hearing who she’s with during that fucking accident almost already made me want to kill someone, at isa doon ay si Chancellor. Why the hell is he with my wife?!“Check all the cameras in the restaurant and coordinate with the police. Gusto kong mahuli agad ang driver ng sasakyang iyon.”“Noted, Sir.” My men immediately left as my bodyguard escorted me to the damn hospital!Damn it, Paris. You’ll be the death of me. Why was she in that place in the first place? She should’ve been home! Bakit… bakit kasama niya si Chancellor? I can feel my heart pounding si much in anger, pero hindi naroon ang atensyon ko. There’s much worse than fucking jealousy. And when I heard the siren of the ambulance, I recognized that feeling already.When I
Say That You Love Me Chapter 27: Love Me
I couldn't sleep. Let alone rest at the thought of it. Hearing those words from him shattered my heart into million pieces. It feels like I was betrayed, fooled…But damn it, no matter how much it fucking hurts me, hindi ko magawang magalit sa kanya. Kahit hindi ko siya maintindihan, at sa kabila ng lahat ng paninira sa kanya, at sa pagtatago niya ng mga bagay sa akin… I still feel like he’s the only one I can trust.May parte pa rin sa akin na nagsasabing may dahilan siya kaya niya iyon nagawa. Na dapat pa rin akong magtiwala sa kanya.Those thoughts are choking me, parang hawak sa leeg at ipit ang dibdib. I don’t know anymore… Bakit hindi niya sinabi sa akin?I want to hear his explanations pero… hindi ako naniniwalang hindi niya kilala ang pamilya ko. If he knows us, I’m sure he knows something. I breathed heavily and immediately stood from the bed when I realized na wala itong patutunguhan. Wala akong patutunguhan kung puro lang ako ganito. What’s there to think about? Ni utak k
Say That You Love Me Chapter 28: To Plan Our Future
I woke up in the unfamiliar coldness of the bed. Hindi ako sanay. It felt like something was missing. More like someone. When I opened my eyes, I wasn't even surprised anymore when I saw her gone on the other side of the bed. Pero kahit hindi na ako nagulat, hindi ko pa rin napigilan ang kirot sa dibdib ko. She really hates me right now, doesn’t she?I sighed heavily and almost wanted to pull my hair out of fucking frustration. I should’ve expected this. I should’ve been ready for it.I took the white polo that was crumpled on the bedside table, wearing it without minding the lipstick stain on it. I tried looking around, eyeing if there were any traces of her or her whereabouts. But with her last night's clothes tidied up, and her most intimidating, yet addicting perfume filling up the room, I already knew she was somewhere.But where could she be? Will she meet someone?Hated to admit it, but that was the perfume she wore during our dates. Kaya mas lalo tuloy akong hindi napanatag ku
Say That You Love Me Chapter 29: Left
“To be with each other. To plan our future. To get married someday.”Nagpaulit-ulit iyon sa pandinig ko na parang sirang plaka. Unlike the usual days where I feel my head pounding, hindi ko matukoy kung bakit ngayon… puso ko ang kumikirot dahil sa pamilyar na pakiramdam. There were flashes coming before my eyes as I was in that particular scenario. It was as if it was real.No… it was real. It ain’t that clear pero nararamdaman kong totoo iyon!And it’s making me question everything. How is this possible? How is it possible for him to hide these from me all these years?!“Is this a joke?” I asked, trying to gaslight myself that this is not real. Na baka paraan niya lang ‘to para mapabalik ako sa kaniya. But more than half of me believes on what he’s saying!Dahil ako mismo, nararamdamang totoo iyon!Pero hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit kailangan, at paano niya kinayang itago?! This is not just a mere information… this is a huge part of my life!And the way his eyes glimmered with sad
