Love is not just about mutual feelings, it's about something deeper. It's about trust, loyalty, and taking risks.
The elevator to Aaron's office dinged and my heart raced even more. I can't hear anything else rather than my rapid heartbeats.
Dumeretso ako sa office niya pero hinarang ako ng secretary niya. "Ma'am, I'm sorry but Mr. Monteverde is in the conference room right now."
Gumuho 'yong mundo ko.
"What time will he—" I asked while trying to mask my peevishness with politeness.She cut me off after checking Aaron's schedule before answering. "7 pm pa po."
I checked my wristwatch and saw that it was only 5:15 pm. I'd have to wait for almost two hours? Hell, no! This is urgent! Anything that concerns my love for him is urgent! I can't lose him! Not again!
I hurriedly ran to the other side of the hallway and ran to the right. This building is labyrinthine but I was able to find the conference room without breaking a sweat.
There was a guard in front of the huge double doors and I knew that I have to make a distraction to lure him away from it so I could get inside and talk to Aaron. I don't have any better ideas so I took chances.
"The girl is commiting suicide! She's gonna jump!" Turo ko sa may veranda.
It caught the attention of the employees. The guard glanced and I bolted towards the door.
Naitulak ko na 'yong pinto nang may humawak sa braso ko. May guard pala sa likod ko, damn it!
"No! I have to talk to your boss! It's important!" pagmamakaawa ko, pero balak yata akong kaladkarin ng guard at itapon sa labas dahil sa ginawa ko.
Hinila ulit ng guard 'yong braso ko. At para hindi niya ako matangay paalis ay inilusot ko ang braso ko sa double doors at ikinapit ang kamay ko sa door knob sa kabilang side.
Hila nang hila 'yong dalawang guards pero hindi ako bumibitiw kahit ang sakit na sa kamay.
"Miss! Ano ba—?"
"Aaron, help me!" desperadang sigaw ko.
I know he could hear me because the door was ajar. Hindi ko nga lang makita ang loob dahil hatak nang hatak ang dalawang ito .
"Miss! Tumigil ka nga! Ipapaban ka namin dito!" banta ng isang guard.
Lalo kong hinigpitan ang kapit ko. 'Yong isang kamay ko ay ipiniglas ko at ikinapit ko rin sa pinto. I look pathetic and desperate but who the fuck cares?
"Aaron! Can you hear me? If you can, then—aray!" Binalingan ko ang guards and told them,"Bitiwan niyo nga ako!" at balik muli kay Aaron."Kung naririnig mo, gusto kong malaman mong mahal kita—Sandali lang nga! 'Wag niyo akong hatakin!—Aaron, mahal na mahal kita and I'm sorry—Ouch!" Hindi ako makasigaw nang maayos dahil hinihila pa rin nila ako.
