Truth Hurts Meaning Novels & Stories

It makes me want to hear more. "Forgiveness is a tricky thing, especially when the wounds run so deep. It's like trying to mend a shattered vase, no matter how much glue you use, the cracks always show. When someone you love hurts you, it's not just a surface wound, it goes straight to the core of your being."

"I'm s-sorry for all the things I said yesterday, Hon. I d-don't mean it...I don't mean it.... Nadala lang ako sa takot...Please wife take me back...I'm begging you.." His words were like knives stabbing my heart so many times again. I wanted to stay in his warm hugs but it can't be. It's not the right time for both of us. We need to grow. I need to fix myself first. The words he said yesterday left a big scar in my heart. Tama nga sabi nila, truth hurts at kaya nasasaktan ako dahil somehow tama yong ibang mga sinabi niya sa akin. Labis ko lang dinamdam pero totoo naman.

Muling bumalot kay Trixie ang katahimikan ng buong bahay niya, habang unti-unting napaupo si Trixie sa isa sa mga bar stools sa kusina. Tulala. Luhaan. Nilalabanan ang unos ng emosyon sa dibdib. Lahat ng ginawa niyang iyon noon… para sa akin? But no! She couldn't just believe this! Because he genuinely felt real and raw emotions for her half sister! This won’t do! Ang akala niyang poot at galit ay unti-unting sinusugpo ng katotohanan. Paano mo pupurihin ang isang lalaking sinaktan ka, kung siya rin pala ang nagligtas sa’yo? How do you grieve for the man you lost, when you’re slowly realizing he never truly left you alone?

"Bella? Nagpapatawa ka ba? Aaminin ko na magaling siyang makipaglaban pero hindi niya ako kayang talunin." Ngumiti ako sa kanya ng marahan. "Mukhang hindi mo naiintindihan ang sinasabi ko sa iyo, Jarvis." Napakunot-noo naman siya bigla. "The feeling of that kind of love, being angry and being in pain because you can't accept the truth, will destroy you." Sa sinabi kong iyon ay biglang nanlilisik ang kanyang mga mata. "You should not seek revenge, Jarvis. Trust me, you'll probably hurt yourself more," nakangising wika ko.

Mariin niyang pinahiran ang kanyang luha at kinuyom ang kamay. "Are you here para ipamukha sa 'kin na natalo ako? Na mas pinili ka pa rin ni Lucas at ang totoo, mas mahal ka niya kaysa sa 'kin?" Nagsimulang umapoy sa galit ang mga mata ni Trina. Ngunit sa likod ng galit na iyon, ramdam ko pa rin ang sakit na nasa loob ng kanyang puso. "Nandito ka ba para pagtawanan ako dahil isa akong failure sa buhay?" bulyaw niya sa akin saka muling bumuhos ang luha sa kanyang mga mata. "No! I'm here to know the truth. Gusto kong ikaw mismo ang magsabi sa 'kin ng lahat."

Tears fell down my eyes while hearing his words. “You don't understand--” “No! You don't understand me, Mie. Can you just accept the truth? I only hurt you.” “But you told me to hold you closer didn't you? You agreed that there is no end... that there are only beggings, but you're ending this now?! You're ending our relationship?!” “Mie--” “Why do you have to say that and assume the things that aren't happening yet?!” I said rhetorically. “It happened, Mie. I hurt you and I can't let that to happen again and again.” Thunder retorted but his voice is still soft and weak.

after all he wants to get rid of thye pain he still feels inside of him. It’s been 6 years at ganun pa rin ang sakit, di nawalala at habang lumilipas ang panahon imbes na maghilom ito ay hindi kailanman nangyayari, siguro ay dahil s anever niya namang sinubukang mag move on. Para ano pa ang pag mo-move on? For Daniel he realized that moving on with pain is not good at all… why? It’s because you are just giving everybody a license to hurt you again, to take advantage of you, and to manipulate you with their lies.

Natatawang tanong nito na nagpawala ng ngiti niya at nagpabalik ng kirot sa puso niya. "Pinaglaruan mo akong gago ka. Pinaniwala mo akong ang lahat ay totoo. May totoo man lang ba sa lahat ng nangyari? Ang pangalan mo, trauma mo, lahat! May karapatan naman siguro akong malaman man lang bago niyo ako patayin, hindi ba?" Mapait na sabi niya na nangigilid ang luha pero hindi hinayaan ang sariling umiyak sa harap nito. "My name, my trauma, they are all true, woman. You can believe that much."

Dahil hindi na niya kayang magsinungaling. “Yes…” Huminto siya. “And maybe.” Nanlaki ang mata ng tatlo. “But…” Mahina siyang ngumiti. “The truth can hurt.” Tahimik. “However…” Tumingin siya sa kanila. “Sometimes, the truth is also the only thing that can heal.” At sa sandaling iyon… naunawaan ni Mara ang isang bagay. Matagal niyang pinrotektahan ang lihim ni Venice dahil mahal niya ang kaibigan.

"I don't know. Maybe, oo. Pwede ring hindi." The honesty of those three words shattered him. Because he knew she wasn't trying to hurt him. She was simply telling the truth. And somehow that hurt more. Sophia's eyes softened. "Ang totoo talaga niyan, hindi ko alam..." She reached up. Resting her hand against his cheek. "I don't know because if I didn't marry you, I wouldn't have experienced some of the happiest moments of my life." Tears burned behind Adrian's eyes.
