Chapter 26

"Why did you do that?" I asked Kuya Zac while he was driving.

"Then what should've I done? Let you go to jail for a crime that you didn't really commit? Should've I just watched you get dragged to jail? That's what the fuck you want me to do?" He hissed and looked at me.

"You should've! Yung pera Kuya! Malaking pera yun for sure! Attempted murder and sexual harassment, malaking pera yon!" I exclaimed as he laughed sarcastically and angrily looked at me.

"Ish naman! Kuya mo ako eh! Nakakagago sa pakiramdam na makita yung nakababata mong kapatid na nasa kulungan pinagbabayaran yung kasalanan na hindi naman niya ginawa. Tangina eh nasaktan ka pa sa panggagago niya sayo." He exclaimed as I looked down as tears started forming in my eyes again.

"Don't cry, Ish. Be strong for yourself and for Wallace." He consoled as I smiled at him.

"Uuwi ka ba sa condo niyo o iuuwi muna kita?" Tanong niya. I'm very thankful I have a Kuya like him, I could never ask for more.

"Sa condo namin Kuya. Gusto ko na muna mapag isa." Kako as he smiled at me. Nung makarating na kami sa condo namin he looked at me and gave me a genuine smile.

"Tawag ka lang pag hindi mo na kaya hmm? Andito lang si Kuya. Makikinig si Kuya sa kahit ano, tawag ka lang pag hindi mo na kayang kargahin lahat lahat ng sakit. I'll be willing to take some."

I smiled at his statement. "Thank you, Kuya." I said as he smiled and I walked inside the condo. I plopped myself on the bed and I saw some notifications on my phone.

user4535: Ishna did that? Oh my God! I thought she was an angel

rvien: Looks can really be deceiving

valliee: What if misunderstanding lang pala yun? Ishna is so kind kaya nakikita ko siya minsan may tinutulungan siyang mga tao

gianna: I thought I was stanning a queen, turns out hindi pala

Those were the comments I saw on the article na lumabas kanina lang. I'm thankful na may mga tao pa din na naniniwala sa akin pero tangina talaga. Then I saw messages from people.

From: Bunsong sakit sa ulo

Ate, hang in there hmm? Alam kong kaya mo yan. I'll always be here by your side, marami kaming naniniwala sayo. We'll try harder to find every more evidences. Mahal na mahal ka namin ate kong maganda

From: Mommy love (≧▽≦)

Baby, call if you need someone to lean on hmm? Wallace isn't by your side right now pero nandito lang kami, mahal ka namin anak. Don't worry about those stuff, we'll try hard to fight for the justice. Nandito lang si Mommy if the burden is too much for you to bear

From: Daddy <( ̄︶ ̄)>

Babylove, kaya mo yan. Alam naming gusto mong mapag isa ngayon pero nandito lang kami ha? Alam kong matatag ka baby! Mahal ka namin

From: Chrizzna😗

Bb, nakita ko yung news tsaka nasabi na din ni Kuya Zac sakin yung nangyari, alam mo naman na nandito lang kami diba? Just remember it's okay to cry kapag hindi mo na kaya and it's also okay and it's very normal kapag gusto mong ishare sa iba yung sakit na nararamdaman mo. Mahal na mahal ka namin bb, nandito lang ako pag kailangan mo ng kausap

From: Tiana

Ish, wag ka muna mag open ng social media mo ha? Don't add any more stress to yourself. Kayang kaya mo yan, nandito lang kami para sayo. There are many people who believes in you and isa na ako doon

A smile crept into my lips looking at their texts. It makes me feel a little better that I still have these people beside me. I sighed, wala pa ring text o tawag galing kay Wallace. Alam ko naman na urgent yung pinuntahan niya ngayon pero bakit naman kase ang pangit ng timing ng tadhana. Bakit ngayon pa siya umalis?

Later on my phone rang as if it heard my prayers. It was Wallace calling.

"Sweetheart, I am so sorry na ngayon lang ako nakatawag sayo. Nagsasabay sabay kase yung mga paperworks namin tsaka na misplace ko itong phone ko. Ngayon ko lang nakita at ngayon lang din ako nagkaroon ng time para hanapin to. Are you okay? Did something happen?" He worriedly asked. Paano ko sasabihin sakanya? His voice soothes me.

"Wallace love." I broke into tears. Tangina naman oh, napaka emotional naman tangina.

"Sweetheart? What happened hmm? Tell me. I'm willing to come back there just for it." He said and that made me cry even more.

"Silly, wag na. Gusto kong makipag usap sayo." I said and sighed. Diko na alam kung tama ba itong gagawin ko. Tangina diring diri ako sa sarili ko kase wala manlang akong nagawa nung ginawa sakin ni Pier yon. I don't deserve such a pure soul as his, walang bahid ng dumi yung pagkatao niya. Hindi gaya sa akin. Tsaka what good would it bring him if his model girlfriend got rumors na nangharass sa isang CEO.

"I know something's wrong, sweetheart. Tell me, nakikinig lang ako." He said and that made me cry even more.

"Wallace hindi ko na kaya. I won't do any good to you. My image is ruined, nakakadiri na ako." I completely broke down.

"What the fuck are you talking about, Zeyn?" He's getting serious, tinawag na niya akong Zeyn.

"Lace, malalaman mo yung sinasabi ko kapag makikita mo yung mga article tungkol sa akin. Nakakadiri, love." I said as he sighed.

"Whatever that is, I know na hindi mo magagawa yun. Zeyn, sweetheart you are a very pure soul kaya mahal na mahal kita. Just wait a minute hmm?" He said and that made me cry even more, how could he? Dipa nga niya nakikita tapos ganyan na siya. How could I deserve him?

Later on I heard him playing one of my favorite songs in his guitar.

"I just found the guitar somewhere here. Take a chance with me hmm?" He asked as I laughed while tears were streaming down my face.

He started playing the last chorus of the song. As I sang with him.

"Lie to me all you please. I can see right through, see right through." He sang and that hit me, of course he can. He can always see right through me.

"Oh why can't we for once say what we want, say what we feel?"

"Oh why can't we for once say what we want, say what we feel?"  We sang as I smiled.

"Oh why can't you for once, disregard the world and run to what you know is real?"

"Oh why can't you for once, disregard the world and run to what you know is real?"

"Oh why can't we for once say what we want, say what we feel? Oh why can't you for once, disregard the world and run to what you know is real?" I stopped singing because I was already sobbing.

"Take a chance with me. Take a chance with me." He finished the song and my tears were streaming nonstop.

"Sleep, sweetheart. I know you're tired from all the pain. You did great enduring it. I'm so proud of you, you really did a great job. Take a rest from the pain and we'll talk tomorrow. I love you."
