"Oh my God, Athijha," Lily mumbled and helped me to get up. "He's just handsome but I don't like his vibe."
"Lily, he's just like that because he's mad at me. I already told you that." I heard her sighed. "Lily, do you mind going back to the mansion alone? I am going somewhere before, you know, get my things at home."
"Okay. Just make sure you won't commit suicide or I'll be the one to kill you in another life."
Minutes have passed and I'm still standing outside the hall. Staring at the busy street like I have nothing else to do.
A loud horn from a truck startled. I tucked my lips in and started walking to a random way.
I can't forget the way he looked at me earlier. I can't for
I kept on mumbling the same statement over and over again while shaking my head. I stood up and used the wall as support. I took my hoodie and left his condo. I held my chest. My tears are dry now but the pain is still in there. Crawling from my heart to every part of me, slowly eating me alive. I fell on the floor when my knees gave up. It's a good thing I fell on the grasses, if I fell on the rocky or hard ground, my knees would be wounded and that will affect my chosen career. A burst of empty laughter echoed around me. I surrounded my gaze and chose to stay. It looks like an abandoned park but it's not scary at all. I laid on the grass. The moon is so beautiful. My eyes star
Oh G! I don't want to have those kinds of thoughts. I massaged the bridge of my nose and hissed. I slightly knocked my head on the wall. Cakes. Ice creams. Pizzas. Strawberries. Chocolates. I kept on repeating and picturing the foods I love inside my head while running to school. I don't want to entertain those thoughts. Coffee. Salad. Pasta. I stopped running and he
Maybe that smile from earlier wasn't meant for me too. Maybe... maybe the moment he stepped into this condo and landed his gaze on me, he saw her. He thought I was her. It's so stupid of me to forget that he's drunk. It's so stupid of me to think that he has forgiven me. It's so stupid of me to do things for him even if it breaks me. How could I forget that he's into her? And I can't believe how masochist I am. I can't believe that I can't bring myself to be mad at him, to hate him. I can't believe I love him so much. I combed his hair and planted a feathery kiss on his forehead before storming out of the room. I sat by the window. The light coming from the misty moon is not tha
My jaw dropped when he turned his back. No, no, I did nog ruined the years we spent together as friends, Quel. You did, I just took the risk of being with you and it was you who decided to throw those years."You don't even worth a thing to me, selfish bitch," He said before ascending upstairs.I smiled bitterly. Your words will hunt me forever, Quel. It made my heart bleed a gallon and will leave a huge scar that will be embedded not just in my heart but also in my soul.We just graduated from college today. I almost lost my place in dean's listers because of you, Quel. I did everything I could to fix everything, even if it takes away everything I have or even if I lose myself.I brushed my tears away when my phone rang.
I clenched my chest when an unbearable pain struck my heart. It hurts so bad. I held onto the wall and pulled myself up. I was sobbing silently when I ran out of his room. I did not intend to shut the door that loud but I can't help it. I'm pain. I'm deeply hurt that I can't control my actions. I drove away from his condo as fast as the legal department allows. I screamed at the top of my lungs and as loud as I can as I drive somewhere I don't know. I immediately turned off the engine and jumped out of my car as soon as I found a place where there's only me, the moon and the sea can hear my screams. "Aaahhhhh! Quel, today is our second month of marriage! Damn, and you spent your
I leaned on the railings as soon as I reach the highway. I was panting and was already sweaty. Damn, my back is really killing me. The fast movements of the vehicles makes me feel dizzy so I just looked up to the sky where the stars lies without the presence of the moon. My mouth parted when I realized how beautiful they are. For a second, I forgot about my aching back the moment a falling star passed through the sky. I beamed. What a beautiful sight to see. A loud horn made me jolt in surprise. I looked at the car in front of me. Its window slowly rolled down which revealed the person from the inside. River was frowning while looking at me, obviously confused about the reason why I am standing alone by the highway.. "What are you
"Exiquel!" "Slap me, Athijha. I don't have enough reason to treat you that way. You are already in pain and I added up to your problems. I treated you like a trash instead of treating you like a princess. Hurt me, Athijha," I kissed him on his forehead instead of doing what he wanted me to do. He pulled me and hugged tightly but it didn't hurt me. It was tight yet gentle. I combed his hair using my fingers. "I can not do what you want me to do, Exiquel. Even if you hurt me over and over again. Break me again and again. I wouldn't care. I will still hug you as tight as I can no matter how many times you stab me, no matter how much I bleed. I am going to give all the love I can." He hugged me tighter. "I'm so sorry, Athijha."
I sighed and rolled my eyes. I bit the insides of my cheeks to suppress the smile that has been begging to be shown. "Does it taste good?" I bet if I ever say yes, he's going to brag about his how good cook he is even if he just learned to cook by himself so nuh-uh. I refuse to give him what he wants to hear from me. "No, it's kind of salty. You're still a bad cook, Quel," I said while shaking my head. He frowned then he took a spoon to taste it. His frown slowly faded and glared at me. I let out the laughter that I have been holding for several seconds. "You should have seen your face, Quel. You look defeated earlier," I said in the middle of laughter. I held my tummy when it s
