RIGHT AFTER TAKING SHOWER, I went out to look for mom but instead, I found my twin in the living room. It appears that she was really waiting for me since she stood up as soon as she saw me.
“Dusk…”
She gave me a mocking smirk. “You went to Baguio with Caleb, so I heard.”
“I WENT HERE BECAUSE…”I stared at Dawn. She looked tensed and curious at the same time. I wanted to tell her that I miss her already even though we were just together this morning. How can tell her about my feelings when she’s actually facing a problem on her own?Confessing my love for her might cause her distress. It might also appear as a burden and I don’t want her to think and feel that way.
I thought I would be having a great day on our way to the beach but it was the opposite. It was suffocating! With Dusk around and Caleb near me, I was having a hard time pondering what to do. If I get too close to Caleb, Dusk will glare at me. If I get too close to Dusk, she’ll push me away and Caleb will see how bad our relationship went because of him.I can’t believe I’m torn between these two.
I WAS STARING ATthe twins who were silently eating lunch in front of me.They didn’t tell me anything yesterday and just acted as if everything was okay. But I knew better. Dusk clenching her fist and Dawn rolling her eyes meant something. They were not fine and I had a hunch that it really was because of me.
"PSST! JERK, STILL AWAKE?"That was the message I received from Dawn. I sat down and checked the time. It was two in the morning and everyone was in bed.Did something happen?
MY HEAD WAS STILL spinning but I immediately stood up when I realized that Dusk was not in the room. I also saw her texts to Caleb that alarmed me. I quickly ran to his room, not even bothering to dress up."She woke me up asking where you were, Cal. She's still drunk but she insisted going out here. But… why are you two here anyway?" Cass shifted his eyes at Dusk and looked at her confused. "And what did I miss?"
THREE DAY PASSED and Dusk never really showed up. The day she left; we also went back to Manila. Director and Caleb went home with me and explained the situation. They weren’t able to talk to me because I was in daze – still too shocked to talk.Mom and Pops kept visiting me in my bedroom and tried to talk to me but nothing really has gone into my head. My heart died the moment she left. Comparing the pain I’m feeling right now to what my twin was going
CALEB KNELT IN FRONT of my parents. As soon as we arrived home, he immediately asked me to call them in the living room. Never did I imagine that he'll do this."I haven't got the chance to say I'm sorry the last time we talked. I never meant to cause heartache to your twins. I was too dumb not to realize that Dusk was feeling something greater than being friends. I apologize." He sincerely said with his head bent forward.
CALEB GENTLY PATTED the ice pack on my face. He was staring at me as if I was a kid who got her first bruise."Did the pain lessen, kitten?" He lovingly asked.If Caleb wasn't here, maybe the second
