Gay Friend

Chapter 48

Sheianna Scarlett Montolla POV

It gave me shivers about Arthur's answer. I'm scared imagining him getting insane because of me but I have to.

I need to tell him the truth. I just didn't know how to start.

"Arthur m-may d-da-pat kang m-malaman."

"What is it love?"

"You know that I love you right?"

"Yes."

"Do you really believe that my love for you is real?"

"But of course, yes. Mahal na mahal na mahal kita Scarlett. I would never doubt your love for me. I trust you, lovey-babe."

Di ko na kaya, sasabihin ko na talaga sa kanya. I stood up and kneel in front of him.

"Scarlett what are you doing? Is something wrong?" He was shocked.

Tears went down on my cheeks.

"Oh lovey-babe. Why are you crying? May problema ka ba? Tell me." He said gently wiping my tears.

I took a deep breath.

"Oo Arthur may problema at ako iyon."

"What?" I placed my forefinger on his lips.

"Just listen to me first. Huwag ka munang magsasalita." He nodded.

"I don't how and where to start. I didn't know if Anthony told you something about me. And that's true Arthur. Niloloko lang kita. I used you for me and my family to have a better life in the future. Plano na namin iyon since we become best friends. Pero totoo na minahal kita kaya ko ito sinasabi na sa iyo ngayon. I can't do this anymore. And about what happened when we ate at the hospital together with my co-workers, I'm not really a med-tech. I didn't pass the board. I want to have the examination for the second time around but I really need to work kasi nagkasakit sina Nay at Tay at the same time. So I had no choice but to work as a janitress. Kahit maliit ang kita as long as may pera kami. We're so poor Arthur. Walang-wala talaga kami. The three of us are working para may makain lang kami. I'm so sorry Arthur from the bottom of my heart. I'm really so sorry. We just want to have a good life and secured future for my future children Kaya ko nagawa iyon. Ayoko na maranasan nila ang hirap sa buhay. But I really did loved you Arthur. Sana mapatawad mo kami ng pamilya ko."

He was just staring at me with no emotions.

"So it's over between us?" He asked.

"I'll understand kung makikipag-break ka sa akin. I admit it's my entire fault. I hate myself for doing that."

"You didn't answer my question?"

"The decision is up to you Arthur. Maintindihan ko naman. You deserve someone better who would really love and care for you. Di kagaya ko na manggagamit. Again, I'm really sorry. Pinagsisisihan ko ang ginawa ko."
