CHAPTER 6
990 Words
I panicked back to the car before speeding it off.
I can't focus on driving! I'm still dumbfounded and wondering how fast it happened! In just an instant, I lost the important person in my life! Why did they disappear so quickly? Why did they disappear from my life?
What the woman said earlier was correct. 'The life is unfair!'
TWO WEEKS LATER...
"Love, eat first." Missy said softly and brought the spoon with only food to my mouth but I just tilted it so it ended up on the floor.
She is Missy Ontangco, my girlfriend. We have been in a relationship for almost 1 year but I think she wants to break up with me because she can't be with me anymore and we don't have time for each other anymore. She also doesn't like to message and update me like before.
"Are you here because you feel pity for me?... Just leave."
"Love... I'm here to take care of you."
"Don't fool me Missy!... If you can't see me in this situation just leave. Don't torture yourself."
"But I'm here to take care of you!"
"Can you just leave? I'm having a harder time if you're here, Missy!"
"B-but l-love. I'm here to be with you."
"Are you not listening to what I'm saying?"
"L-love..."
"I said go out!" I said, I was angry with her but she didn't seem to care. She didn't even move and just looked at me. "Do what I said, Missy!"
"B-but love..."
"Dont call me that f*cking call sign, Missy! Let's break up!"
"L-love? W-why? Did I do something wrong?"
"Nothing! And you did nothing but worry about me! It's like you consider me as your brother and not your boyfriend!"
"But love, I didn't treat you that way! I was just worried about you because I love you."
"What? Are you f*cking love me! Or are you just putting up with me?"
"L-love, it's n-not like that."
"F*ck! How many times do I have to tell you not to call me with that f*cking call sign? Don't you really know how to listen?"
"No love. I m-mean Bryson. Im listening B-bryson." She said but she's not used to calling me by my name.
"So leave!... Now!" I ordered her which she obviously didn't want to do so I just pushed her.
She quickly stood up and left my room in tears.
Annoying!
If she treats me like a child. I think she just treated me like a younger brother. It's not like before how she worries about me. I can't feel the love she gives me. I can't feel it!
That f*cking love won't come to me anymore!
I was annoyed when I looked at the food on the floor.
That girl is still scattered here!
I thrown away things successive that I could handle because of so much irritation. I don't care if it breaks! What else is important in life?... Gone!... My life is worthless! I'm just like broken pieces of life that can be thrown away. There is no point in living! No more!
"S-sir." I stopped breaking things when someone called me from outside the door. She must be my old maid. "Someone is giving this to me, sir but i think that is for you." She said in low voice and slipped a small envelope under the door.
What do I do there?
I continued to break things in the room. I almost destroyed the curtain, air conditioner, light bulb and other items in the room.
I went out from the balcony and poured out all my anger there.
"God! Why did you keep me alive? Why did you let me live? I will be hurt too! It's the same when I'm lost, right? Why did you let me survive in that place? I'm in so much trouble! Why don't you just take me?!" I complained successive while looking at the cloudy sky.
My tears slowly fell as I remembered the time I was with Braxton. In all the troubles in my life, he was with me, and so was grandpa who always accompanied me and helped me in many things, especially when it came to the company. He even worries about the company more often than me.
"Grandpa, Braxton, I miss you." I said while looking at the clouds that were gradually increasing in number. I felt my tears fall so I immediately stopped them.
"I just miss you but don't make me cry like this." I complain.
After a while I decided to go back to my room which was too messy. I still seeing the small envelope by the door so I decided to take it.
I observed it's appearance. It's a small brown in color and has a wedding design. it's like paper in the old days.
Why is it like this?
Whose is this from? It's cheap!
I opened the envelope and there was a white paper inside, so I immediately opened it and read it.

To my only son Bryson,
Hello son, I am so glad that you can read this today. It's January 26 and it's midnight. I don't know when you will read this but I just want to tell you that I am so happy because you became my grandson. You didn't even meet your parents but you still didn't leave me. You're the best grandson in the world. I hope you will always watch over our company. Don't let it go bankrupt, it's also for the one you marry. Take care of her too and don't leave her. You should get married on my birthday and if you don't do that, we will lose the company. I'm sorry grandson if I just said it now.
You're best grandfather, Percival.
