Unexpectedly Falling For You

75: Day 6

Setting: Hospital

Aika woke up the next day, now seeing her siblings and her mom. David was there as well.

Aika got up quickly and searched for him

Aika: Ma, asan si Caesar?

Leni can't look her in the eyes.

Aika: Ma! Akala ko ba aayusin  natin to. Asan si Caesar.

David answered her.

David: I told you, he left. He left you for someone else.

Tricia couldn't stand it anymore.

Tricia: Left her for someone else, o dahil left her because of you. Dahil sa mga ginawa mo.

Aika stood up and went infront of David.

She slapped him and began hitting him in his chest as her tears ran down from her eyes.

Aika: Why.
.
.
.
Why
.
.
.
.
Bakit mo kelangan to gawin!!

David: Dahil kelangan, para sayo to Aika.

Aika heard the lies he spitted out and slapped him again.

Aika: Para sa akin? O para sayo.
.
.
.
.
Wag kang umasa David. Kahit mawala sakin si Caesar, hinding hindi kita mamahalin.

Aika took off every IVs connected to her making her hands bleed.

Tricia: Ate!

Aika: wag niyo ako pigilan!

Aika looked at her family, longing for Caesar.

Aika: Wag.
.
.
.
.
.
Dahil kahit anong sabihin niyo, hahabulin ko siya, kahit pagbawalan niyo ako, lahit pigilan niyo ako, hindi!
.
.
.
.
Susundan ko parin siya.

Tricia: Ate yung kamay mo. Please

But as soon Tricia wanted to go to her, David stopped her and raised his voice as he said these words to her.

David: Gusto mo sumunod kay Caesar, sige pagbibigyan kita! I did this to let you live Aika!

Aika looked at him disgusted.

Aika: no David, ikaw mismo ang papatay sa akin kapag nawala si Caesar.

David frowned.

David: Fine, go to him. I'll let you see him as he get married para mabuksan ang mga mata mo Aika.
.
.
.
I'll prepare everything. I'll make sure yoy you can go there in time for him to get married.

Aika: What are you saying?

David: Caesar and Aya will be married 2 days from now.
.
.
.
So I suggest, you bring your handkerchief cause you'll need it.
.
.
We will be leaving later in the afternoon.

David passed through her and slamming the door.

As Aika heard everything, she lost all her strength and began crying hard.

Leni: Aika..

Aika: Ma, please. Please. I'm begging you. Let me.
.
.
.
.
.
I don't wanna lose him again.
.
.
.
.
I can't lose him again.

Leni looked at Tricia and Jill.

The two of them nodded.

Leni wiped Aika's tears and smiled.

Leni: Let's bring him back. But first we need to do something about your hand. Trish.

Tricia: yes ma, ako po bahala.

Tricia treated the wound while Leni and Jill was preparing for the departure tomorrow.

Tricia: Ate. What if you couldn't..

Aika: No. I won't let that happen, Trish. Just let him see me. Let him see me and everything will be okay.
.
.
.
.
I just need to see him.

Setting: Fitting room

Caesar was now being measured for his suit.

As he try different suits, his face wasn't smiling at all.

Lucas noticed.

Lucas: For sure, Aika would love this suit.

Caesar looks at him worried.

Caesar: We had an agreement!

Lucas: I was just saying son, be happy since you'll get married soon. And oh, make sure your mom and your siblings attend because if they don't, you know what will happen.

Caesar couldn't help but nod.

On his way back to their house, he stopped at the Cemetery.

He saw a familiar figure looking at Sha's grave. It was Aya.

Caesar: you came to ask permission?

Aya didn't answer his question.

Aya: You know Caesar, she always wanted you to be happy. Even when she was dying, she wanted you to be happy.

Caesar: But I guess that won't happen anymore.

Caesar said as he offered flowers to the grave.

Aya: I also want you to be happy.

Caesar: I told you Aya, no one but her at this point could make me happy.
.
.
.
.
At this time, I just have to slowly accept that I could never be happy in this life.

Aya pittied him.

She hugs him but he didn't hugged back.

Aya: I promised her to make you happy.

Caesar became silent but eventually broke it.

Caesar: Then I guess, you broke your promise.

Caesar took her hands off of him.

Caesar: for the next two days, we will get married but Aya don't expect anything.

Aya became silent.

Caesar: the so called thing love, I can't give that to you.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Because when I left, I already left that so called thing love with her.
.
.
.
.
I wish we could all be happy.
.
.
.
But maybe, we all need to wake up to the fact that wishes don't come true.
.
.
.
Even if you begged for it to come true.

Caesar left Aya after saying those words.

Aya looked at the grave once again and breathed deeply and smiled.

Aya: Sha, you should've teach him about hope because this time, he needs it more than I do.
