"You left without saying a word, Ciana. Hinanap kita, naghintay ako. Umasa akong babalikan mo 'ko dahil baka sakali na maisip mo ako," napatitig ako sa mga mata niyang kulay kayumanggi ngunit lumuluha. "Tapos ngayon babalik ka na para bang walang nangyari?" nakagat ko ang ibabang labi kasabay ng pagyuko sa kaniyang pangunguwestyon. "Sinisisi mo 'ko kasi hindi kita magawang kausapin ng maayos? Pansinin tulad nang dati?" napapikit ako ng matapos niyang sabihin iyon ay hinampas niya ang pader sa aking tabi. "You think I'm okay? Nasasaktan ako Ciana, kahit sorry man lang galing sa mismong bibig mo wala akong natanggap." Tinitigan ko siya ngunit ako mismo ang nasaktan nang umaagos na ang luha sa mga mata niya. "I'm sorry," mahinang sabi ko. "This is not the right time to do that, because I can't f-forgive you for l-leaving me." Malamig niyang sabi ngunit bakas ang hirap sa pananalita. "Mahal kita at nakalimutan kong may gusto ka nga pa lang iba," hindi ko siya makapaniwalang tinitigan dahil sa sinabi sa akin. "I'm leaving." Paalam ni Mateo tapos tumango at lumabas na ng kwarto.

“IKAW?” My eyes nearly popped out of my face when I saw him—the mysterious stranger from last night. Is it him? The same man? Parang gusto kong mahimatay. Wehh? Hindi pwede! Impossible! my inner voice screamed, pero ang katawan ko nanginginig na parang nakuryente. Hard f*ck na yata ng buhay ‘to. And suddenly, a memory crashed into me like a tidal wave. That night. That stupid, reckless night. The stolen kisses, the laughter between moans, the way he made me beg—“Wag kang titigil!”—like I’d lose myself if he stopped. I swore I’d never see him again. I swore it was just a one-night stand, a mistake I could bury. But now he’s standing right in front of me. Not just a man. Not just anyone. But the CEO. And worse… the ex-boyfriend who once shattered my heart. His smug grin sent shivers down my spine. “Of course. Why wouldn’t I?” he said, like fate itself was mocking me. I froze, torn between rage, fear, and something I couldn’t even name. My mind screamed run, but my heart whispered, stay. My world was spinning, and suddenly, every choice felt heavier than ever. Will this be the start of something dangerous… or a responsibility I can’t escape?

I was staring at Leion. He was kneeling in front of me, begging like he would lose half of his life when I left him. "This is what you want, from the very beginning, right?" I said, while smiling from ear to ear, before I sipped on my red wine. I didn't know that red wine taste so sweet, when I feel the victory, I know I will win this one, because loathe makes me stronger, I will feel nothing, if not anger, resentment and pain. I am numb, and the day Leion hurt my feelings, over and over again. But now, look at him, acting like he loves me and he cares for me, that if his feelings are true, why couldn't he do it then? "Aubrey, I am begging you, please—" "Do you remember the day I begged you to stay, because I am weak and tired from all of your bullshits, I gave you patience and all the understanding, and now, do you think all of the so called kindness that you show me lately is enough to forgive all the things you've done to me?" "Why are you so heartless?" Leion said while his tears running down to his cheeks, a crocodile tears, I will never be taken away again. "My love, you're the reason, now deal with it."
