Marie's POV
"So Marie, how did you met
Lucas?" Tanong ni Lia while
we quietly partake our meal sa
restaurant na malapit sa shooting
location namin.
"I just met him today" tipid kong
sagot.
"Right! she just met me today but I already knew her back in college"dagdag ni Lucas.
"And how about Ion? How did
you met him?" tanong nya ulit and it made me stop chewing my food especially when it reminded me of how we actually met.
It was really a nightmare.
"ahhh... Probably a workshop
called mind your own business,
what do you think?" I said
sarcastically.
Masyado na kasi syang nangingi-alam.
"Off course business, just business.." she said as she chuckles.
"ano pa bang ine-expect ko? I know naman na sobrang boring ng buhay mo"dagdag nya bago nagpatuloy kumain.
"See? there's nothing interesting"dagdag ko while glaring at her.
Ilang sandali may biglang tumawag kay Lucas.
"Excuse me, I need to take this call"paalam nya at lumabas muna.
"Me too, wash room lang ako"
paalam din ni Lia.
And now, kaming dalawa nalang
ang naiwan sa mesa... what a good
timing. Life is torturing me.
"How are you these past few days?"Tanong nya agad.
"Do I really have to answer that
question when obviously I'm not
okay at all?" I asked sarcastically.
"You don't have to kung ayaw mo"he said while staring at me habang kumakain ako.
"You're still wearing that ring" sabi nya while staring at my right hand,then I suddenly realize that I'm always wearing this and I haven't taken it off yet.
"Ahh... eto ba? It was so tight to take off, I can't imagine kung paano to nasuot sa daliri ko...but don't worry it's just a ring, don't make it a big deal" paliwanag ko naman.
"So how's the annulment papers?"tanong ko.
"I haven't sign it.. I mean... I won't sign it" nya ng diretso.
"Akala ko ba nagkaliwanagan na
tayo? Sign it para matapos na bago pa malaman ng media, baka maging issue pa" sagot ko naman.
"I don't care about it right now.
basta ang alam ko... I will never sign that paper" He said and it really pisses me.
I want to slap him or spill my
drinks to him but I can't. people are watching so I decided to suppressed all my anger and excuse myself papuntang washroom.
Kumukulo ang dugo ko sa sobrang
pagpipigil, napaisip din ako sa
sinabi nya, bakit hindi nya pa
pinipirmahan? bakit pa nya
pinapatagal? napabuntong hininga
nalang ako.
Gusto ko na talaga matapos to.
Ilang sandali, nakakita ako ng hand soap sa tabi ng faucet kaya ginamit to while trying to take off the ring but it's really hard.
Kahit anong pilit ko ayaw matanggal, kailangan ko pa atang putulin yung daliri ko para maalis to.
And now I'm wondering kung paano napasok sa daliri ko ang
singsing nato.
Di nagtagal ginive up ko narin,
namumula na kasi ang daliri ko so
I decided na bumalik na muna sa
mesa namin pero pagkalabas ko ng
washroom Ion was already waiting
outside.
