CHAPTER 2: Condition

"What condition?"

"I'll help your company but in exchange of that help will be...

YOU.", Kyle

Hindi naman agad ako nakapagsalita sa sinabi niya. WHAT?! He's gonna help the company in exchange of ME?

Pinaningkitan ko naman siya ng mata. "You're shitting me right now?"

"No baby, I'm not shiting you. That's my condition. Take it or leave it.", nakangisi naman niyang sabi sa akin.

"Then NO.", mariin ko namang sagot. The hell with him! Hinding-hindi na ulit ako magpapakatanga sa kanya. Once is enough!

Aalis na sana ako nang biglang may brasong pumigil sa akin. Inis ko naman siyang nilingon. "You heard me, AYOKO."

"So hahayaan mo lang na bumagsak ang kompanyang tumulong sa pamilya mo nang kayo ang nangailangan ng tulong?", seryosong tanong naman niya na nagpa-init sa ulo ko

"DAMN YOU! Hear this Mr. Anderson! Hindi ko hahayaang bumagsak ang kompanya ng pamilya MO pero hindi ko rin pipiliin na bumalik SA'YO! I'll do everything in my power to help the company without your help! NOW LET GO OF ME!" galit na sabi ko naman sa kanya pero hindi niya ako pinakawalan.

"They're not my family anymore as far as I can remember.", he said in a cold tone and I can't help but roll my eyes on him because of what he said.

"Kahit pagbali-baliktarin mo ang mundo, it would not change the fact na sila ang pamilya mo Kyle."

"They were the ones who disowned me kaya wag mo akong pangaralan tungkol sa pamilyang iyon!" Kitang-kita ko naman ang galit sa mata niya habang sinasabi yun kaya napatahimik ako. "C'mon Violet, I'm giving you the simplest option. Just come back to me, and I'll help your company. And that would be of your advantage because you use to be in love with me, remember?", Kyle

WOW. Really, WOW! Ang kapal din ng mukha niyang sabihin yun sa akin!

"Oh really? Kasi sa pagkakatanda ko rin, you use to break my heart. REMEMBER that also?", I asked in a sarcastic tone.

"Just come back to me already Violet.", he said in a serious tone. Pero kung seryoso siya, seryoso din naman ako.

"NO.", I answered firmly

"You'll come back to me Violet.", Kyle said as if he's really sure that I will

"Dream on Mr. Anderson.", mapangkutya ko namang sabi sa kanya

"I won't because I'll definitely make that happen. At ikaw na mismo ang babalik sa akin ng kusa.", he said while grinning at me

Inalis ko naman ang pagkakahawak niya sa braso ko at tinalikuran ulit siya saka naglakad na palayo pero napatigil ako sa mga sumunod na sinabi niya.

"I want you back, and I'll definitely have you BACK

MRS. ANDERSON.", Kyle

Dumiretso naman na ako sa paglabas sa restaurant pero hindi ko mapigilang hindi mangilabot sa sinabi niyang iyon.

Yeah, that bastard is my husband na dapat sana ex-husband ko na pero dahil sa kagaguhan niya asawa ko pa rin siya hanggang ngayon! I filed an annulment before pero ang gagong iyon, he did not make it possible. Hindi niya hinayaang ma-annul ang kasal namin at nalaman ko lang yun 1 year after magkita ulit kami ng attorney ko. Hindi ko kasi pinagkaabalahang alamin ang nangyayari tungkol dun sa annulment at hinayaan ko ang lawyer ko ang umasikaso dahil ang sabi ng doctor ko nung time na yun, bawal akong ma-stress.

And now he's back threatening me?! Damn him!

'Violet, you shouldn't be scared.', I said to myself

Tama. I can't let that happen. And I won't let that happen! Ayoko ng magpaka tanga ulit dahil sa kanya. Going back to him means living in hell again kaya hindi ko hahayaang mangyari ang gusto niya!

No way in hell Kyle! You'll never have me again! NEVER!

(Kyle's P.O.V)

I can't help but stare at Violet's picture that I'm holding right now. I was the one who took this picture when we were still together. She really looks like an angel. But I must admit, her personality really did change. Mas naging palaban na ito.

But I know I can still can handle her.

And I'll definitely have her back AGAIN.

And this time, I won't and would NEVER LET GO OF HER.

I'll make sure that those people who would try to take her away from me will have a miserable life.

I know I'm being selfish after everything that had happened before, but what can I do? I still love her but the worst part is that I've just realized that after hurting her so much. And after she left me. Pero gaya nga ng sabi, hinding hindi ko na talaga siya pakakawalan pa ulit. Hindi ko hahayaang may iba akong kaagaw sa kanya. Besides, I'm a selfish person. I don't share, especially MY WIFE.

SHE'S MINE AND MINE ALONE.

"I won't just be dreaming anymore baby because I'll definitely have you back again. I'll do everything to have you back again, that's a promise."

And I mean EVERYTHING.

Inisang lagok ko naman ang hawak kong glass na naglalaman ng alak.

Nilabas ko naman ang phone ko sa bulas ko at tinawagan ang aking personal assistant.

"Hello Gareth, I want you to do something for me..."

If I can't convince her to come back to me in a nice conversation, then I'll convince her in MY OWN WAY.

Agad ko namang sinabi kay Gareth ang gusto kong gawin niya.

At alam kong sa gagawin kong toh, si Violet mismo ang lalapit sa akin at papayag ng bumalik sa buhay ko.

Alam kong magagalit din siya sa gagawin kong toh pero anong magagawa ko? I'm too desperate to have her back.
