Chapter 17

Are you sure you'll be fine going alone? "

I nodded "I have to.."

I texted him earlier to see me if he is free. Nag-uusap kami ngayon dito sa apartment ko. This is the least I can do after niyang magmalasakit sa akin, ang ipaalam sa kanya na uuwi na akong Davao. Kailangan ko nang harapin ang mga magulang ko. I have to face the consequences of my action as early as possible..

"I can come with you, samahan kitang kausapin mga magulang mo "ginagap niya ang aking kamay.

"I'll be fine Luke. You don't have to. I have to do this alone, mas lalong masasaktan sina mama kung papatagalin ko pa ito."

"Please let me. I want to help you." he said while looking at me seriously.

Umiling ako." Thank you for the offer Luke but....I will do it alone, I have to do it alone."

Hindi ko pwedeng idamay si Luke dito. I don't want him to be in trouble. Ayoko nang makaabala pa sa kanya . People might judge me at ayaw ko siyang idamay. May pangalan siyang inaalagaan at may negosyo siyang pinoprotektahan.
