2024-07-17 17:05:52Athena's POV
It's hard to believe it's been five months since Justin and I became a couple. Time flies when you're with someone who makes every moment feel special, at napaka bagal ng oras kapag nalulungkot ka or your suffering from something heavy in your heart. Justin has been the same caring, attentive guy since the day we started dating. He always knows how to make me smile, and hoping everyday that our relationship will grow stronger than we ever imagined. Today is our monthsary, and Justin insisted on taking me out for a simple date. I once look at my mirror checking myself. I'm wearing a simple dress, casual and elegant. *BBZZZZZT* (My phone vibrated on the table showing Meyer's name in it). I picked up my phone as I answer it with calm and joy. "Hello..."- me "Hi Light, I'm waiting downstairs"- Meyer said on the other line. "Pababa na ako"- sagot ko. Ibinaba ko narin aKaugnay na kabanata

Athena's POVIt was one of those rare days when my classes finished early. I found myself with extra time and decided to wait for Justin outside his department. Siguro oras na rin para ako naman ang maghintay sa kanya para hindi laging siya ang naghihintay. Tumingin ako sa wrist watch ko saka napaupo sa isang bench not too far from their department enjoying the breeze and the anticipation of seeing him.As I waited, I noticed a girl standing nearby, looking nervous and fidgety. She was holding a small box, and her eyes kept darting towards the department entrance. The girl was so familiar, hindi ko masyadong makita ang mukha niya dahil waring nakatalikod ito sa kinaroroonan ko. 'Katulad ko rin sigurong may hinihintay mula sa Criminology department'- inner me. Some students started to storm out from the building kaya hindi ko na ibinaba ang bag ko. Ilang saglit lang ay nakita ko na si Justin papalabas ng department kaya tumayo na ako. "

Athena's POV Today was shaping up to be just another busy day on campus, filled with lectures and lab sessions. Justin maybe busy pero nagagawa parin nitong ihatid sundo ako sa school at apartment ko. I was on my way to canteen nang nagcross ang landas namin ni Micka sa hallway. "Athena!"- she greeted me excitedly. "Hi Micka"- salubong ko naman sa kanya. We're in the same department pero ang mga ganitong pagkakataong na nagsasalubong ang schedule namin ay napakadalang lang. "Tell me you're going to the canteen not to your next class?"- she said with cross fingers. Napatawa nalang ako sa ginawa niya. "Yeah, come on"- paanyaya ko sa kanya. Together l, we headed to the canteen as we catch up for some time. "How's your course going?" Micka asked as we found a table in the crowded canteen. "It's been intense," I admitted. "Medical Technology isn't exactly a walk in the park pero kaya naman, Ikaw? How's nursing treating you?"- balik tanong ko sa kanya. Micka smiled. "It's a

Athena's POVAnother sem had passed, weeks had dragged on with an aching slowness. With our internships in full swing, Justin and I rarely saw each other, and I missed him terribly. The few times we did manage to steal moments together, I couldn't shake the feeling that he was pulling away. He seemed distant, preoccupied, and it gnawed at me.Determined to bridge the growing gap between us, I decided to surprise him. Tomorrow was our first anniversary and Justin's birthday also, and I wanted us to welcome it together. Last year on his birthday, I had said yes to being his girlfriend as my special gift for him. It was a special day for both of us, and I wanted to make sure we celebrated it despite everything.Alam ko ang address ng condo niya at ibinigay niya sa akin ang duplicate key niya.

Athena's POVThe night stretched on endlessly. Sleep evaded me, and I lay awake, staring at the ceiling as the minutes turned into hours. I kept checking my phone, hoping for a reply from Justin, but nothing came. The silence was deafening, and each passing moment felt like an eternity.Tuloy tuloy sa pagluha ang mga mata ko, animo'y hindi nauubusan ng tubig ang katawan ko. Ramdam ko natin ang pamamaga ng lalamunan ko but I keep on hoping to receive a message from the person I've been thinking all night. By the time the first light of dawn peeked through my window, I knew I had to pull myself together. I had a class to attend and an internship to manage. No matter how heavy my heart felt, I couldn't afford to be irresponsible. With a sigh, I got out of bed and began my morning routine, the motions feeling mechanical and devoid of energy."All is well..."- I said trying to calm myself I front of the mirror. Muli akong huminga ng malalim

Athena's POVI arrived at my appointment, hoping for some clarity, but all I felt was the growing pit of anxiety in my stomach. I needed Justin's explanation, pero wala. Hindi ko alam kung ako ba ang mapride o kung may nangyari na sa kanya. With a deep sigh, I pulled out my phone and tried calling him again. The ringing felt like an eternity, but there was no answer. Naka ilang ulit na ako tawag, pero wala pa rin."Justin, nasaan ka na ba?" I whispered to myself, my frustration growing with each unanswered call. I couldn't shake off the worry that something bad might have happened to him. Desperation crept in as I dialed his number once more, but still, no answer. I slumped on the couch, staring blankly at the wall. My mind raced with thoughts and questions. "Ako ba ang may mali? Am I being too prideful?" I wondered, feeling the tears start to well up in my eyes.A sudden knock on the door snapped me out of my thoughts. My heart leaped with hope.

Kalix's POVI was busy looking at my laptop when my phone rang. I saw Micka's name on my phone nanagpakunot ng noo ko. I immediately answer the phone. "Anong oras na? Hindi ka parin tulog?"- deretsong tanong ko pagkasagot ko sa tawag. "Oh sorry, is this Kalix?"- a familiar voice frome the other line pero hindi si Micka. "Yes? Who's this?"- I asked "It's Abigail if you still remember me, a friend of Micka... Ahm, pwede bang pasundo itong dalawang ito dito sa bar ko?"- she said "What? At this hour?" Hilot ko sa noo ko. 'It's already 3 am in the morning for god sake!'Ibinaba ko na ang tawag at iniwan ang report na ginagawa ko.I arrived at the bar, a sense of urgency gnawing at me. When I walked in, I immediately spotted Abigail as she raised her hand in front of one of the VIP's door "Kalix," she greeted, a concerned look on her face. "Buti nalang at andito ka na""What's going

Athena's POVI woke up with a pounding headache, the aftermath of last night's drinking session hitting me full force. My mouth felt dry, and my eyes were puffy from crying. For a moment, I forgot where I was, but then the memories of the previous night came flooding back. We went to Abigail's bar and we had drunk ourselves into oblivion.Sitting up slowly, I glanced around the room. I'm on my room."N-nakauwi pala kami kagabi?"- I asked as if someone will answer me. I saw water in my side table so I drink immediately. Beside it was a medicine for headache with a notes. "Drink this when you wake up, alam kong masakit ulo mo ngayon, text me okay?"- Micka.I took the medicine as I drink more water.It's literally 1 pm in the afternoon, medyo mahabang ang tulog ko but my head hurts. Umiikit din ang paligid ko so I went to my shower. I saw myself in the mirror.'I am so wasted'After kong magmuni muni sag

Athena's POVAs we entered the living room, I felt a mix of dread and anticipation. This was the moment I had been waiting for, but I wasn't sure I was ready to hear what he had to say.Justin sat down on the edge of the couch, looking more vulnerable than I had ever seen him. "Light, I... I don't even know where to start.""You don't know? Like you can start in why did you do that? Where have you been? Bakit hindi mo manlang sinasagot ang mga tawag ko? For god sake blinock mo nalang sana ako dahil man ok pa yata iyon kaya hindi mo sagutin ang mga putang*inang tawag ko!"- Seryosong sabi ko. "You knew how much I was broken when Czareenah left... Alam na alam mo Justin. Mas okay nga yata si Czareenah dahil nag iwan siya ng mensahe eh. Atleast I know. Samantalang Ikaw... Samantalang Ikaw wala... I was desperate to know why Justin. Bakit mo nagawa iyon?"- I asked in between my sobs. I saw a glimpses of puzzled in his eyes kaya medyo napatawa ako. Kinuha ko ang phone ko saka iniabot sa k

My Fiance is my Ex CHAPTER 41
Athena’s POV Weeks passed after Justin’s recovery, and although we’d had that heart-to-heart, things didn’t magically get better. Justin tried—oh, he tried so hard to make it up to me. Every time he’d come home early from work, he’d bring me flowers, my favorite food, or sometimes just a simple note telling me how much he loved me. Ilang araw din matapos ng paggaling niya ay bulamik ulit siya sa dati in terms of his work. Mas madalang narin. Siyang umuwi kaysa dati which made me more worried. Madalang narin nagkakasalubong ang oras namin. Days turned into weeks, and the stress of our situation started to weigh heavily on me. I found myself overthinking everything—every time Justin was late, every time he couldn’t explain where he’d been, my mind would spiral into worst-case scenarios. I knew I needed to stop, to trust him like I said I would, but it was easier said than done. Because of this constant anxiety, I stopped taking care of myself the way I used to. Meals became someth

Justin was finally stable, nagawa king natanggap ang mga balang nakabaon sa kanya, he's still unconscious at hindi pa namin alam kung kailan siya magigising. The thought of him lying on that stretcher, covered in blood, still haunted me. I had to stay strong, but my heart felt like it was breaking into a million pieces.Tito and Tita is out of the country, nasabihan ko na rin sila about Justin pero pareparehas kaming walang alam sa nangyari. I still don't have any idea on what exactly happened, kung bakit siya nabaril and so on. As I walked out of the operating room, I leaned against the wall, trying to catch my breath. My mind was racing. Paano ito nangyari? Sino ang gumawa nito kay Justin? “Athena,” It was Micka na siyang sumalubong sa akin. "How was it? Are you okay? Si Justin?"- tuloy tuloy niyang tanong. "Na-nagawa kong matanggal ang mga bala sa katawan niya

Athena’s POVI never imagined that just days after our wedding, life would take such a sharp turn. Few days after the wedding ay naglipat bahay na kami sa bagong bahay na titirhan namin —our own space, our sanctuary. Simpleng bahay lang din, which is Justin let me decide about it. Hindi masyadong makali, hindi masyadong maliit, sakto lang talaga siya at elegante tignan. Even the appliances Justin let me decide it, hindi ko nga alam kung bahay namin ito o bahay ko lang eh. If you're asking about us? Well ...*Flashbacks*"Paano ang kwarto?"- I asked him"Alam ko namang hindi ka parin komportable sa akin so I can use one of the guest rooms"- Justin. Lagi nalang siyang nakarely sa desisyon ko which is I know na nirerespeto niya ako but I also want his opinion pero..."Ok ..."- sagot ko nalang."So if ever our parents will be visiting we can pretend then"- pagpapatuloy ko. Tinitigan niya ako ng ilang segundo bago tuluyang sumagot. His eyes are blank which is mas nasasanay na ako kesa s

Athena's POV Nakaharap ako sa salamin, pinagmamasdan ang sarili sa puting gown na suot ko. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang mararamdaman? Ang kasal na ito ay hindi ko pinangarap na ganito. I may once wished na si Justin ang mapakalasalan ko but not this kind of set-up. “Okay ka lang, Tina?” Enah asked me, maid of honor."Yeah..."- tumango ako sa kanya. She gave me a smile Saka lumapit sa akin. "You're beautiful"- Enah.Ngumiti lang ako sa kanya. "Nagdadalawang isip ka parin? Ngayon pa na isinuot mo na yan?"- tuloy nito sa suot ko"Masyado lang mabilis ang mga pangyayari, hindi kapanipaniwala"- mahinang sabi ko."You have your time after this Tina...

Athena's POV I was expecting na mamayang gabi pa dating si Justin, nagulat nalang ako nang makita ko siyang hingal na hingal sa tapat ng apartment ko 15 minutes after ko siyang tinawagan.

Hindi ko alam kung anong maririnig ko sa kanya ngayon, I clear my mind so I won't expect

Athena's POV 'I felt someone kissed me in my forehead kaya tiningala ko kung sino. When I saw it was Justin I kissed him. It maybe a dream but atleast kahit sa panaginip manlang I can taste his lips again.' I woke up with a heavy head at parang pinipiga ang ulo ko sa sakit. "Drink this para mabawasan ang sakit ng ulo mo"- I heard a familiar voice. 'Nananaginip parin siguro ako' Unti unti kong ibinukas ang mga mata ko when I saw a blurry face. Inilagay nito ang gamot sa kamay ko at tinulungan akong isubo iyon. Pang apat na lagok ko ng tubig ay unti unting naging klaro ang mukha ni Justin sa harap ko. *Burrsstt* (naibuga ko ang tubig sa tabi ng kama ko) *Cough* *cough* "Hey, careful"- hagod ni Justin sa likod ko saka nagsalin ulit ng tubig sa baso and gave it to me.

Athena's POV "Here come to bride!"- Micka shouted as I enter the room. Napakunot ang mga mata ko when I saw them cheering on me. Tatlo sila and ngayon ko lang marealized na may bagong mukha akong nakita. Her face is familiar then I realized kung saan ko siya nakita. Napangiti lang ito sa akin but I can see she's excited to hugged me dahil halatang nagpipigil ito. "Giselle? Is it you?"- sabi ko"KIYYAAAAHH!"- we both shouted in chorus. Hindi namin pinansin ang dalawang nagtatakip na ng mga tenga as we both jump into joy while hugging each other. The cozy ambiance ng VIP room sa resto bar made everything feel so intimate. Nakangiti akong nakatingin sa mga kaibigan ko. Finally, lahat kami nandito na."Grabe, finally! kompleto tayo"- I said."Cheers?"- Enah raise her glass."CHEERS!" Giselle, Micka and I shouted. "Any update with the wedding?"- Enah"Tuloy na tuloy talaga huh"- Micka"Tsskk"- I just shrug dahil nagsisimula na naman sila sa pang-aasar. "So sinong napili mong maid of

My eyes where in him na nakasandal sa wall looking at me. "Doc..."- nag aalalang wika ni Mrs. Tranco.The guardians where waiting for me to speaking kaya napunta sa kanila ang pansin ko. "The operation is successful po, but still we wait for further results."- I said Sabay sabay silang nakahinga ng maluwag matapos kong sabihin iyon. "Thank you Doc... Thank you so much"- Mrs. Tranco."Ililipat po siya sa ward so doon nalang po siya hintayin"- sabi ko sa kanila saka tuluyang nagpaalam bago ko sila tinalikuran.

Athena's POVI've been driving for hours pero malapit na ako sa resort. Isa ito sa favorite naming pinupuntahan ni Czareenah dati maliban sa mga view decks na napupuntahan namin kapag nagjojoy rides kami na ginagawa naming tambayan o kaya sa bukid nila mismo. Maliban sa magandang view ay may mga resto na pwedeng pagpilihan depende sa mood o sa gusto mo. They also have bars, cafes, karinderias and different resto styles like Korean resto, Japan and others. Sa 'Cafe Latte' ako dumeretso tulad ng napag usapan namin. "Tina!"- I heard Enah's voice behind me."Oh! You're here... Hi"- I hugged her. "Of course...
