Lahat ng Kabanata ng Sabotaging My Walkout Queen Book 2: Kabanata 71 - Kabanata 80

Athena’s P.O.V. “Can I come in?” I answered David’s question with a question. He might have forgotten to peek through the peephole that was why he was surprised to see me here. It was awkward to ask the same way as how my dream started, but this one was real… and it was impossible for that dream to happen here. David did not answer. He just opened the door wide enough for me to enter his place. “Thanks,” I said as I turned to him… and it was too late for me to realize that I shouldn’t. My jaws quickly dropped off the floor because I wasn’t expecting to see him this way. His mass of unruly hair matched with brown eyes as intense as dark chocolate just added an inexplicable effect to his unique form of handsomeness. My eyes got stuck with his lips and heat rose on my cheeks after remembering how he ate m

David’s P.O.V. I drove Denise back to the hospital where his fiancé was currently admitted. Nagkakasayahan sila kahapon sa The Love Shack—isa sa mga sikat na videoke bars sa Alabana, nang makita raw nilang wala nang malay ang binata sa loob ng CR. Now I realized that despite what she had been going through, Denise was still able to be jolly around me with her slight memories of Athena. Maliit na nga lang na bagay ‘yon, pero ipinagkait ko pa sa kanya. Pakiramdam ko tuloy ngayon ay wala akong kuwentang kuya! When we reached the parking lot and my car came to a full stop, lalabas na sana ako para pagbuksan siya ng pinto nang hindi man lang niya hinintay na gawin ko iyon para sa kanya. Denise was also going through a lot, and yet, I was too stubborn and egotistical para saktan ko siya. Sana ay pinag-isipan ko muna nang mabuti bago ako nagbitiw ng mga masasakit na

David’s P.O.V. “This is not the right time para mag-away tayo, pre. You know what’s the best thing to do? Hanapin na lang natin si Athena,” Tyler calmly said when the two of us distanced ourselves away from the others. Just the thought of him already made my blood boil in an instant, paano pa kaya ngayong kaharap ko na siya? Aba’t ang lakas din naman ng loob ng gagong ‘to na tawagin akong pre? Kahit kailan, hindi ko natatandaang naging magkaibigan kami! “What are you doing here?” tiim ang bagang na tanong ko sa kanya. The first thing I wanted to do right now was to strangle Tyler’s neck, but would that help me find Athena easier? No. Kailangan kong kalmahin ang sarili ko. I had to remind myself that anger would not do me any good. “Kagabi pa hindi umuuwi si Athena. She’s not even answering

Athena’s P.O.V. Nang makarating ako sa site ay nakita ko pa si Yaweh na saglit kong tinanguan to acknowledge his presence, bago ako pumasok sa ginagawa pa lamang na Charmed annex building. I forgot to wear my shades, so naiintindihan ko kung bakit gano’n na lang ang tingin niya sa’kin. My eyes were all puffy and concern was evident on his face with the way he was looking at me. In just a span of three months, malaki na rin naman ang naging improvement ng main building—bagay na pabor sa aming dalawa ni David. The forty percent was already close to finishing and with that, I wouldn’t be able to stay here any longer at mas mapapabilis pa ang pag-alis ko kaysa sa original date of departure ko. I was certain that it would take a long proc

David’s P.O.V. Pareho na kaming nakaupo at nakuha na rin namin ang in-order naming mga kape at desserts nang magsimulang magkuwento si Ate Paula—bagay na hindi ko inaasahan na gagawin niya. I didn’t know why, but an uneasy feeling started to occupy my heart. My instinct was telling me that I would soon know about Athena’s life—way more than I had already learned about. “Athena and Helena are identical twins—bagay na alam kong matagal mo na rin namang alam. Limang taon pa lamang sila nang magsimula akong manilbihan sa pamilya nila—noong mga panahong buhay pa ang mama nila.” Uminom muna siya ng kape bago niya itinuloy ang pagkukuwento sa akin. Ate Paula was not looking any younger. She was already having those fine lines on her forehead and some were underneath her eyes. Her hair began to develop gray strands too.
