Eiffel's PoV
From: Kuya Willam
Subject: Husband's where abouts
He's in this bar with me
I'll wait at you in the entrance
You can do this lil' girl :-)
Pagkabasa ko ng text ni Kuya Willam ay ngumiti ako. Yes, I can do this.
Inihanda ko ang sarili ko ng dalawang araw para makausap siya and Kuya Willam didn't fail me.
I looked inside our house and took Puffy. "Don't worry, makokompleto na ulit tayo dito sa bahay natin baby" nakangiting saad ko as I hug her back.
I will win him back; I will win my Hubby back.
Sumakay ako ng taxi at nagpunta sa nasabing address ng bar.
Pinalibot ko ang paningin ko sa building, first time Kong makapunta at makakita ng bar sa personal.
I texted Kuya Willam and informed him na narito na ako. Maya maya ay lumabas na siya ng bar and went to me with a smile.
"Are you ready?" Nagpapasiguradong tanong niya sa akin. I nodded and let him guide me.
We passed through the guard dahil pinakita ni Kuya Willam ang VIP card niya ay pinapasok ako.
"Is he always here?" Hindi ko napigilang itanong.
Maingay at ang daming nagsasayawang mga tao sa loob nitong masikip na bar. Naghalo ang amoy ng alak sa sigarilyo. Nakakasilaw din ang papalit palit na ilaw ng disco ball.
"Ah, hindi-oo parang ganoon na nga" nalilitong napakamot nalang siya ng ulo niya.
Oh God, what is he doing to his life?
Clyed's PoV
"Isa pa" saad ko sa bartender.
Pangilang araw na bang wala akong ginawa kundi magmukmok? I feel so pathetic for not being able to do anything at all.
Kinuha ko ang shot glass at tinunga ang lamang alak.
Naramdaman ko nalang ang isang kamay na humagod sa likod ko papunta ng mukha ko.
"Hi babe, what a coincidence seeing you here" nangaakit na sabi niya.
Pumiksi ako at tinangal ang kamay niya " natural na makita mo ako dito, what's the use of that private investigator you've hired to follow me?"
I didn't have to look at her to know her reaction because she just laughed as she brush off the topic.
"What are you doing here? Drinking out your frustrations because of that brat?"
Dahil naaalibabbaran ako sa presensiya niya ay tumayo na ako at naglakad palabas ng bar, I'll just call Willam na nauna na ako.
I used the back gate and looked at the sky, nagsimula nang bumagsak ang ulan.
I suddenly remembered the day I saw Eiffel drenched and shouted at me to marry her. That day was so unforgettable after all, everything started in that day.
Aalis na sana ako ng biglang may humablot sa kamay ko.
"Elizabeth," nabwibwiset na tawag ko sa kanina pang umumoubos ng pasensya ko.
"Let's get married Clyde!"
Agad kumunot ang noo ko "Ano nanamang kabaliwan ang pinagsasabi mo?"
"Patay na ang ama ng batang yon! Wala ng dahilan para manatili ka kasama niya"
"You just married her because of the wish of her dying
Father, right?!" She shouted as she convinces me.
"Look, kung kaninong Poncio Pilato mo nalaman yan ay wala ka ng paki, you know nothing" saad ko gamit ang malamig na boses ko.
Tatalikuran ko na sana siya ng bigla niya akong hinatak at hinalikan!
She is trying to part my lips to enter and invade my mouth.
Napakadesperada talaga ng babaeng to!
Hinawakan ko ang balikat niya to push her away but the moment I opened my eyes, I saw the beautiful blue gem eyes that stares back at me....
Eiffel's PoV
My heart broke into hundreds of pieces because of what I saw...
Kuya Clyde was kissing ate Elizabeth.
Kaya ba ilang araw na siyang nanlalamig sa akin at hindi na umuuwi sa bahay ay dahil kay ate Elizabeth?
Siya ba ang laging kasama ni kuya Clyde?
My heart aches just imagining the possible things they do when they are just together alone.
"Shit! Eiffel, it's not what you think!" Nagaalalang saad ni Willam.
Bakit si Kuya Willam ang nagsasabi ng ganito?
Bakit nakatayo lang si Kuya Clyde at matamang nakatingin sa akin na parang wala siyang ginawang mali?
"H-Hubby, I'm ready to listen on your explanation. H-hindi ako manghuhusga sa nakita ko. Just tell me that it was an accident" nakangiting sabi ko at pilit na pinipigilan ang pagpiyok ko.
Expressionless na tumingin siya sa akin.
"It wasn't an accident Eiffel, I kissed Elizabeth" malamig na saad niya.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa narinig ko. Inamin niya...
Ate Elizabeth looked at Kuya Clyde na tila di rin niya inexpect ang pagamin ni Kuya Clyde but she smirked at me in the end.
"W-Why?" pilit na nagpakatatag ako. Ayokong maging simula ito ng pagaaway namin, I'm ready to listen to him kahit ano man ang sasabihin niya.
"Because I just realized that she can give me what I want" bale walang sagot niya
Tears started to stream down from my eyes. Parang may ilang milyong kutsilyo ang tinarak sa puso ko.
"I told you so" ate Elizabeth arrogantly said pero hindi ko siya pinakealaman, my focused is only towards my husband.
"H-Hubby-"
"Don't call me that" putol niya sa akin. Sunod sunod ang mga luhang pumatak mula sa mga mata ko.
I wanted to be strong pero siya mismo ang nananakit sa akin.
"W-Why are you doing this?" I bit my lips to prevent myself from sobbing. I need to show him how much I love him.
"I just realized na bata ka lang talaga, I mean I can't keep on playing "kasal kasalan" and "bahay bahayan" with you all my life. Isang malaking pagkakamali ang pagpapakasal ko sayo." Bulgar niya at unti unting napatingin ako sa sahig.
Anong sasabihin ko? May dapat ba akong sabihin?
I started to make a choking sounds that was supposed to be laugh "I-It was all just a GAME to you? E-Everything that happened... All the memories we shared?" mahinang tanong ko.
He laughed at me and brushed his hair "Don't tell me na pinaniwalaan mo ang lahat non? I just did it for Tito Raven's sake"
"No! I know it wasn't a lie!" sigaw ko at tumingin sa kanya!
"I know you love me! I felt it! and I don't understand why you are doing this Kuya Clyde!!!" giit ko.
Pinanghahawakan ko ang lahat ng mga alaalang pinagsaluhan namin. Hindi ko hahayaaang masira ang lahat. This is my own fairy tale!
Lumapit siya sa akin at hinawakan ako sa balikat "Wake up Eiffel! I never loved you. Simulat sapol ay bata lang ang tingin ko sayo! At kahit anong gawin mo ay hinding hindi magbabago ang katotohanang kinaawaan lang kita kaya kita pinakasalan! When will you accept the truth Eiffel?!" he exclaimed shaking my shoulders.
I whimpered as tears stream down to my cheeks desperately searching for an answer but he knew I couldn't find one.
"N-No! this all just a dream! A nightmare! Kuya Clyde will never hurt me like this! The kuya Clyde I know loves me!" I denied habang humihikbi.
He stared at me with his dead onyx eyes like he doesn't care about everything anymore.
"How can I love an eleven-year-old child like you...? Sa tingin mo importante ka sa akin? Kailan mo ba marerealize ang lahat Eiffel?! I never loved you!" he shouted harshly causing me to shut my eyes and wince. Tinakpan ko ang tenga ko at mariing pumikit.
"Stop! Stop it!" I screamed on top of my lungs, my lips are quivering and I glanced at him. I could hardly see him with all these tears coming from my eyes.
I gathered all my strength and run away.
"Eiffel!" Narinig kong pagtawag sa akin ni Kuya Willam.
Pero hindi ko na kayang makinig pa sa lahat ng sasabihin niya.
Hindi sapat ang pagiyak ko para mabawasan ang kirot sa dibdib ko.
Hindi ko alam kung nanginginig ba ako sa lamig ng ulan o sa sakit na nararamdaman ko. I continued on running and running while sobbing
"Will you accept me as your husband Eiffel?"
"You will marry me. My Cousins will be you Cousins, my parents will be your parents and I will be your husband. Your Family"
"Will you go out with me Eiffel?"
"My wife is prettier than her"
"Eiffel, I'm here"
"Nine years from now, pwede na tayong magpakasal sa simbahan"
"Gusto ko sa bawat hakbang na gagawin mo ay kasama mo ako"
"Ako, andito ako para sa iyo. Hinding hindi kita iiwan."
Paulit ulit pumapasok sa isipan ko ang lahat ng mga salitang sinabi niya. Ang mga ala-alang pinagsaluhan namin.
At ngayon ay napakasakit tangapin na kasinungalingann lang ang lahat non.
"This very special day is the start of our forever"
He promised me that in our wedding day, pero dito na ba matatapos ang forever namin? Was that also a lie...?
Andaming mga naglalakad na may mga dalang payong pero wala akong pake. I was running crazily na paarang pilit tumatakbo papalayo sa bangungot na to.
Pero sa kakatakbo ko ay nadulas ako at napasubsob sa basang kalsada.
My body is shivering from the cold water while I made choking sounds as I wailed. Unti unti akong bumangon pero wala na akong lakas pa para tumayo.
Nanatili akong nakaupo sa basa at malamig na kalsada habang nababasa ng malakas na ulan.
Biglang pumasok sa isip ko ang huli nyang sinabi...
"I never loved you!"
Nagsimula akong umatungal na parang isang musmos na bata na iniwan ng magulang. Kahit gaano kalakas akong sumigaw ay hindi nababawasan ang sakit na nararamdaman ko...
Like a tidal wave, my world was crashing down on me, ngayon lang ako nakaramdam ng ganitong sakit.
At ang pinaka mahirap tangapin ay ang katotohanang hindi nya ako minahal kahit kelan.
My mind couldn't form what was happening into words. I was on the wet floor covering my face on my hands crying my eyes out. I kept on calling his name, putting my hand over my heart as it clenched and clenched with the pain of heartbreak.
"K-Kuya Clyde..."
I looked up in the dark sky. It's just exactly how my world became now. Dark lifeless world without him...
Ironic isn't it? It was also raining when the day I shouted at him to marry me and everything begun.
Now it is also raining on the day where everything ended...
*'·°'°'·*'·*°'
Huhuhu sinong gustong manapak kay Clyde?
What will happen to Eiffel now?
Please don't hate me guys. So Clyde nalang hahaha. Naiinis din ako sa kanya! He's such a jerk! Buti pa si Willam ko hahaha.
