His Breakup ChecklistUpdated at Sep 30, 2024, 07:23
I could hear the crowd's loud cheers, but I stayed silent. My colleagues are formally welcoming Altair, our new CEO, so I've retreated to the back corner of the office. Hiding. I blend in with the crowds, hoping that nobody will see me.
Mula sa sulok ay pinagmasdan ko siya habang abalang nakikipag-usap sa mga katrabaho ko. Sa tabi niya ay si Althea. She looked stunning in her designer clothes. It pains me to admit it, but I really think they complement each other very well. Bagay na bagay sila. They are both members of influential, wealthy families and share a social circle.
Habang ako?
Tila piniga ang puso ko sa naisip.
Sino nga ba ako?
How dumb am I to have feelings for him? Worst of all, I confessed to him. I had no idea who he was when I told him I loved him.
Ngayon ay sinasampal ako ng katotohanan. Ngayon na nalaman ko na ang buo niyang pagkatao. My heart began to thump as I gazed at him. He is only a few steps away from me, but I feel an endless distance between us. A distance that I know I can't cross, no matter how hard I try.
Hindi ko siya kayang abutin kahit na pilitin ko.
He is a Werner. And I am nothing.
Pinigil ko ang pagtutubig ng aking mga mata. Tahimik ko siyang pinagmasdan ngunit hindi ko akalaing lilingon siya sa gawi ko. Our eyes locked, and my heart skipped a beat.
A look of sheer guilt spreads across his handsome face. His expression then deeply troubled me.
I forced a smile. Even though my heart is broken, I truly feel happy for him.
He has no reason to feel guilty because it is not his fault. It's not his fault he doesn't feel the same way about me. It is not his fault that he doesn't love me.
It is not his fault that he has rejected me…
