Chapter 21: Chapter 21

“Hmph. At least I don’t flirt with other guys, right?” I told him.

Shemerds. I think the pain will come back.

I must endure it.

“My mon amour, I’m sorry.” He told me and then hugged me very tightly. Hugs me as if there’s no more tomorrow.

I somehow know how he feels.

I closed my eyes and let the tears fell. I’ve been waiting for this moment.

I know that I was partly at fault too.

But still, he should’ve told me about his other girl.

“I-i..never-r expected..t-this.” I managed to utter.

All of the pain that I felt and all the questions I readied that day, I am going to ask him right now.

Like what Gio told me, knowing the truth will hurt you, yes, but it will also clear your thoughts and hesitations. I wipe my tears that goes down on my cheeks and cleared my throat and took a deep breath.

“Did you have other girls, other than me and Eve?’ I asked her directly.

That question makes him let me go from his hug.

I looked at his eyes.

Shocked is very evident.

“WHAT THE HELL Celine.” He shouted.

“Are you OUT OF YOUR FREAKING MIND?!

I don’t have other girls, and another thing is that Eve is not my girl.”

W-what?

Ha?

None?

“E-eh? Why is she nude that day on your bed? And he even calls you husband.” I shouted as a response.

His face is now turning red. He’s very mad.

Ha! I am too.

I was the one being pushed away that day!

“ F*ck! That girl is crazy! Why are you believing what she just told that day? Shit. you didn’t believe what I’m saying? If you don’t believe it, then fine! I’ll tell you this again, and please understand it and put it in your mind and heart! I LOVE YOU! Shit believe me.”

At that moment...

I’m stunned.

I might be dead right now, because of wrong accusations.

On the other hand, I died but, not literally.

We are still here inside the car, having a heart-to-heart talk.

I can’t process those words that he just said.

“Eve is not your girl.” He instantly grabbed my shoulders and shake me.

“My mon amour, no. For the nth time, she’s not my girl. She’s not even my wife.

She’s mentally ill and needs psychological treatment. Since childhood, Eve acted like that toward me. I just ignored it because I know she’s not well. We dated once but, it didn’t last.

She threatened me by sending text messages that shell kills the girl that I am going to love. That’s why I’m afraid of your safety.” He explained.

What? She’s crazy.

Shit. I should’ve known better.

The pain that I’ve felt the past few days at Gio’s mansion goes to waste. But, till thank you to his advice, without that I and Yjn will not be together right now.

The nail that pierced my heart is slowly vanishing. All I can hear now are the birds chirping and angels singing.

I’m relieved. I quickly embraced him, pulling him towards me and giving him a super tight hug, and again, tears were rushing down my cheeks, but this time it’s not about the pain I’ve felt.

But because of happiness, she is sleeping soundly on my lap.

She’s tired, tired of crying. Her eyes are so puffy maybe because of stress.

My poor, Celine.

Finally, I got the chance of telling the truth. This is the time that I have been waiting for.

She deserves to know.

I focus on driving. It is already late afternoon, yet we’re still here inside the car. Currently, on the drive-thru lane in NLEX.

What are we doing here? Is Celine planning to kill me here in the middle of this expressway?

My condo is located at Bonifacio Global City, but we are on our way to Bulacan.

“Tsss. Girls.” I murmured.

I rested my head on the seat, then I went to the driver’s seat.

I then drive going to Celine’s condo unit.

I have to take her home.

“Wake up, my mon amour.” This is the nth time that I’m hearing those words.

I was mesmerized by that angelic voice, that’s why I can’t wake up from this dream of mine.

“Hey! Celine Navarro! Wake up! Don’t take advantage of this, I wake you up for how many times.

You’re already biting my hand.” A long group of words from him.

Tsk. His voice is angelic only in my dreams, but in real life it is demonic.

I immediately stand up then look around me. Shit. we are already in front of my condo. I must have been in a deep slumber.

I look at the man who’s in front of me, who’s wiping his hands using wipes.

“Yuck. So gross.” He annoyingly said.

Hah! He thought that I am not hearing things that he’s saying.

I just bite it; is it gross already? Oh, I get it. He’s a former gay that is why he thinks that what I’ve done is gross.

Although he is being mean, I still love him.

Yjn’s phone is ringing, which makes me go back to reality.

It was Eve.

I smirked.

That damn bitch.

Yjn and I look at each other before he answers the phone.

“What do you mean?”

“Fuck. What now whore? After what you fucking did to me? You want me to welcome you with open arms?”

.

“Wha-at? N-no!
