8

Alas otso na ng gabi matapos kong magising sa pagkakalunod ko sa sarili kong luha at mga sakit na patuloy ang pagdaloy sa isipan ko

I feel how much pain he cause, sobrang laki ng lamat na naiwan samin. I know that I also made a mistake, but I know to myself that I tried my best to stop what's happeng between the two of us

I never compare his love to someone else, I know edward. His love infinite, pero parang nagbago na ang lahat

May uuwian paba ako after this? I don't think that I deserve all of this

Breaking news :

Allegedly, Mr and Mrs Go file an annulment, is this the sign that the Go enterprises and the Salvia Corporation is not in a good condition? Is there a third party involve?

"We have no idea about that news, my cousin elisha is very happy with edward"

"That's true, I saw them at LA last week, I think their honeymoon stage is not done yet" 

It's Liandoan and Lesley, my cousin is very happy with his wife, may anak nadin silang dalawa pero parang di sila mag-asawa because of how they treat each other

"My brother is busy on business meeting abroad. I think that's a fake news, if ever that they'll do that my family is the first one who'll know about it. That's a lie" Erjay smile at the camera

"I think that not true, wala naman ganyang issue na napaguusapan. If that ever happen hindi naman maghihiwalay ang Go and Salvia corp." It's tita hynna, her beauty is timeless I can't believe that she's fifty seven

I turn of the television to avoid that news about our marriage, he didn't sign the annulment papers kaya hindi padin kami hiwalay. And I hate it, I can't do what I want

Sunod sunod ang door bell habang wala naman akong inaasahan na bisita, no one know where I am. Kahit isa sa pinsan o kapatid ko wala

I saw their social media accounts and they're defending on us, I know they smell something fishy about my marriage with edward. Kase wala padin akong news kaya wala silang magawa kundi ang dipensahan kami

Hindi padin natigil ang pag-door bell. Maybe the house keeper. 

Binaba ko ang suot kong robe at lumakad papalapit ng double door at marahang binuksan

"Manang-"

"Let's talk elisha.." I am surprised when Oakley is standing right in front of me while he's holding a bouquet of flowers

"There's no reason to talk with you throne-"

"Look, I know that I made a mistake and-"

"It doesn't matter to me Oakley, leave my ass alone and stay away from me if you don't want to involve yourself in issue" mabilis kong sinara ang pinto ng iharang nya ang kamay nya at naipit, mabuti nalang hindi ko agad naisagad ang pagsara

"Oh my god!" Sigaw ko ng mabilis na hinatak sya papasok sa loob at naiwang bukas ang pinto

Dinala ko sya sa kusina at kumuha ako ang ice cube para malagyan ang pasa sa daliri nya

"I'm sorry.." usal ko habang ako ang may kapit ng ice bag at kamay nya

"It's okay, a dinner won't hurt" ngumisi lang sya saakin at padabog kong binaba ang ice bag habang nakatitig sya saakin

"What do you want? Wag na tayo magpaligoy ligoy pa Throne" parang feel at home syang kumuha ng baso at tubig habang ako naman ay pinapanood syang kumilos sa kusina ko

"I just want to know you more" natawa ako bahagya sa inusal nya, he's insane

"Know me more in bed? Not me Oakley, once is enough" matigas kong saad saka sya iniwan sa kusina at umupo sa sofa bago binuksan ang Xbox at ang tv

"I'll cook dinner for you"

"What? No!" Sigaw ko saka naman tumama ang tungki ng ilong ko sa balikat nya

"Then cook for our dinner, I'll eat here" parang di nya nadinig ang pag pprotesta ko at di ito pinansin

"I said no-"

"You'll cook dinner or I will eat you for my dinner" I groan in frustration and lumakad padabog sa kusina at hinanda ang pagluto ko ng pesto pasta. He open all the lights kahit sa corridor at sa paakyat sa taas

"I can't belive that you're still playing Xbox" saka naman sya umupo sa pwesto ko at tinignan ang mga bala ng games ko doon

"I'm twenty seven, anong masama sa paglalaro ko sa xbox?" I ask saka nilabas ang mga sahog sa pasta at namili ng wine 

"Ang bata mo palang pala" I smile and he start looking at my suite

"You love the view?" He ask habang nasa malaking glass wall sya kung saan kita ko ang kabuoan ng BGC

"Yeah, I chose this noong ako pa nagttrabaho bilang president until binitawan ko, my cousin said that he can handle the company kaya I let go. I am very inlove with shoes kaya gunawa ako ng shoe line, all kind of footware tapos naikasal naman ako kay edward, he believe that if we waste time baka magsisi kami kaya I agree to marry him"

Natulala ako at naalala na hindi nga pala iyon ang sagot sa tanong nya

"Sorry, anf layo ng sagot ko" I apologize pero tumawa lang sya

"I adore you, sa mga business parties lang kita nakikita noon, and as usual wala kang ibang pinagbubuhusan ng atensyon mo kundi ang asawa mo" he said and I laugh slightly

"I am so inlove with him when I first him, every womens dream and I got him, he got me and marry me immediately" tangging katahimikan nanaman ang namalagi saamin saka ko naman sinama na ang pasta na malambot na sa sauce

"You know that I marry veda because of business, my parents never ask me if I am happy or not. They never ask for my opinion, syempre sa una nakakainis, arrange marriage sucks" saka ko nilapag sa mesa ang lutong pasta at ang red wine 

"You're lucky, you chose for your own that's why I really like you" he said it like I am not there, I felt my blood is rushing up to my cheeks. He said it boldly, ako pa ang nahiya sa mga inamin nya

"Stop flattering me thorne!" Pag-saway ko sa kanya kaya umayos sya ng upo habang ako naman ay umupo sa harapan nya

"Why? Did I say something wrong?" Bumuntong hininga naman ako at umiling

"What are we doing is wrong Oakley, gusto mo ba na maissue ako na kabit mo?" Tumawa sya ng malakas at nagsalin ng wine sa baso namin

"Off course not, I will take this slow. Ayoko mapahamak ka because of my decision" nakahinga ako ng maluwag sa sinabi nya at tumango ng bahagya

"That's good." Simpleng sagot ko bago inumpisahang kumain ng niluto ko

"Where is your ring?" Tinignan ko ang kaliwang kamay ko kung saan wala nga doon ang engagement or wedding ring namin ni edward, is this the reason why people believe that we are not in good terms, because I don't wear my wedding ring?

"I missed place it I guess, after I went home with you I don't know where my wedding ring is" saad ko bago nya inabot ang kamay ko at may kinuha sya sa bulsa nya na box

"What the-"

"Shhh, just wear this one" 

He said and binuksan ang box, it's a platinum ring with a big and well sculpted diamond in the center, halos buong singsing ay may diamond kahit sa palibot nito, sobrang kinang ng singsing at kahit sino ay maaagaw ang atensyon mo kapag tumingin doon

"What is this?!" Gulat kong tanong matapos nyang isuot iyon saakin

"A ring.." he laugh while he said it and I roll my eyes

"I know Oakley, but why did you gave this to me?" Naguguluhan kong tanong saka sya ngumiti na parang may kahulugan saakin

"Just wear it okay? No buts or what if's." Pinandilatan ko sya ng tingin habang kapit kapit nya padin ang kamay ko at tangging ngiti nalang ang naisagot ko sa kanya

"It's confusing me Oakley, wala kabang balak patulugin ako kakaispin?" I said and he laugh while he's caressing my hand

"It suits on you elisha, stop stressing yourself. Bibisitahin kita dito araw araw" mas lalo naman akong naguluhan sa nangyayari at sinasabi nya

"Kahit wag na" I said and I show him my cocky smile

"Why? I love how you cook food for me plus I won't force you to have sex with me" namula nanaman siguro ang pisngi ko sa sinabi nya at inirapan sya

"What? I won't let that happen and get a life. Can you see this is insane"

"I am insane when it comes to you elisha" umiwas ako ng tingin at hinayaan sya na magsalita

"Elisha-"

"What's the meaning of this?!" Napalingon ako and a face of mad men and women 

It's edward and veda?

"Elisha.." he whisper while he's looking at my hand na kapit kapit ni Oakley ngayon. They saw the diamond ring 

"You bitch!"
