Can't Fall in Love Again

Chapter 62

BEATRIZ

"Sinungaling ka" Jho as her tears were falling down

"What? Why are you crying, Jho? What's wrong?"

Linapitan ko na siya at niyakap. Hinaplos ko ang head niya na ngayon ay nakasandal sa shoulders ko

*Jho sobs*

Makalipas ang ilang minuto ay sinubukan niyang pigilan ang pag-iyak and she stepped back so she could see me properly

"Ok kana? May problema ba, Jho?"

"Wag ka nang magpanggap, Bea. Bakit mo 'to ginagawa ha?" Jho at bakas pa rin sa boses niya ang paghikbi

It shocked me. How did they know?

"Ano?"

"Magsabi kana ng totoo! Bakit ka nagpapanggap na walang alam!" Jho at napataas na ang boses nito

Pero sa bawat pagtaas ng boses niya luha naman ang tumutulo sa mga mata niya. I looked down on the ground, holding back my tears

"Sumagot ka!" Jho

"Because I had no choice. You don't know what I went through, Jho" I said but still looking down

"Look at me" Jho

Inangat ko na yung tingin ko

"Gusto ko malaman lahat" Jho

Flashback

At the UK (doctor's office)

"How much money do you want? I'll give it straight away, just be my accomplice" I said to the neurologist

"Isabel, it's a crime. I don't want to be in jail" neurologist

I told him na tulungan niya akong palabasin na may amnesia ako. This is my only way para makauwi ng Pilipinas, because mom will never allow me to be home with Jho kapag nakikita niyang okay at maayos ako. Lalo na ngayong pinaglalapit niya kami ni Caitlin

"You won't. Trust me, I'll take care of this. I have money, and I can manipulate everything around me"

Present

Umiiyak sa akin si Jho habang magkayakap kami. Nandito pa rin kami sa mismong spot kung saan niya ako nakita kanina

"Sorry if I had to pretend. But I did that para makauwi ako sa'yo"

"B...bakit antagal m...mo?" Jho sobs

I regret so much the time I wasted. All I can feel now is sorry.

JHOANA

Matagal na rin kami dito sa labas ng mausoleum

Now that I found out na wala talaga siyang memory loss, is this the right time to tell her about our child?

"Bea?"

"Why?" Bea kisses my head

Hindi ako nakasagot kasi hindi ko alam kung pano ito sisimulan

"By the way, Jho. Is it ok if I ask who you visited? Aside from Nico?" Bea

Sinabi na rin niya sa'kin kanina na alam pala niya lahat, kaya tanging yung anak lang namin ang hindi niya alam

Dahil sa tanong niya ay muli na naman akong napaiyak

"What is it, Jho? Y-you're making m-me worried" Bea at bakas sa tono ng boses niya ang takot niya
