Yong ikaw lang ang dapat mo iligtas sa gitna ng unos at sarili mo lang ang iisipin mo sa gitna ng kaguluhan. All my life, I spent being alone. I saw different cruelty and crime. Do you expect to be kind when the world keep betraying? I have one rule, If the world hurt you then wrecked the world more than it deserve. But everything was changed when I met her. " F*ck, Can't you find her?!" I angrily shouted my friend, Eros. He is known for being professional tracker but why he can't find that woman?! " Calm down, Zech. We can't resolve another problem if we stay irritated." Nite tried to calm me down. " I think I saw her, " Eros interrupted us. Pinaharap niya ang laptop niya sa amin habang pinapanood ang isang CCTV sa isang cafe na malapit sa mansion nila Daxon. I felt my body shivering. I never been scared in my life. Naramdaman ko ang pag-tulo ng aking luha. Nite tapped my shoulder. " It seems that the world is starting to be kind," Nite shrugged. Walang pasabi ko sila iniwanan at tinahak ang Cafe kung nasaan ang mag-ina ko. Ramdam ko ang panginginig sa buo kong katawan at ang pagkasabik na mayakap sila. Kung kinakailangan na lumuhod ako para lang muling tanggapin ay gagawin ko. If she's pregnant with my child, I will do everything to make her stay. Kung pwede lang dalhin ko ulit siya sa Isla ay ikulong muli sa aking mga bisig ay walang pag-aalinlangan ko gagawin. If she's carrying my own child, I will risk everything to have them in my life. I may be monster but I also deserve to be loved. This monster is craving for her. Nang makababa ako sa sasakyan ay agad ko nahanap ang babaeng tangi kong mamahalin. The girl who's craving for revenge and I'm willing to be shattered just to have her. I'm nothing without her. " Mon amour," I heavily breathe as I saw her walking in front of me. She can't hide my son from me. Her stomach is getting bigger. " What are you doing here?" she asked without any emotion in her face and it hurts. Like I didn't matter. Like she make me fall so hard for her revenge. Like she never love me that way I do. " Mon amour, Let's go back in the Island." I tried to smile and touch her hand but she refused. " At bakit ako sasama sa'yo?" she asked back. Marahas kong pinaglandas ang aking mga daliri sa aking buhok. I frustratedly faced her. " Because you're pregnant with my child!" Once again, I tried to touch her stomach but she angrily snapped my hand. Her eyes is pure disgust and pain. It breaks seeing her full of hatred. It hurts more than how the world betrayed me. " Paano ka nakakasiguro na ikaw ang Ama nito? You're funny. Do you think I will let you impregnate me?! Sa tingin mo ba hahayaan ko ang anak ko na magkaroon ng isang Ama na isang mamatay tao? You're imagining things. I let you c*m inside of me but it doesn't matter that you're the father of this child! " singhal niya. My visual is starting to blur. I don't get it! I freaking don't understand! " It's part of my past! " I was assassin but I met her. Hindi ko akalain na ang babaeng magbabago sa akin ay siyang dudurog sa akin natitirang buong pagkatao. " But your past will dictate your future!" " H-How can you judge me easily like you never hear my story of how the world break me?" ramdam ko ang pangingig ng aking labi. Marahas kong pinikit ang aking mata. " Can we stop this nonsense?! I don't love you and I never did! Can't you see? I flirted you to have my revenge! You killed my family. You assassin them. I will never forgive you." may diin sa kanyang bawat salita. She's trembling in anger. At sa pagsalubong ng aming mga mata, alam ko na kahit anong gawin ko ay hindi niya ako mapapatawad. I'm evil and she's a rose in the garden full of hatred. I trigger her root to grow. I made her monster but it won't deny her kindness flowing in her veins. " I d-didn't killed your family." I stated. But she laughed sarcastically. " And do you have a proof to justify your innocence?" She caught off guard. How can I explain my side if she already closed her door for my good side? " I c-can be a good father. Give me a chance to prove myself. To change my view to the world. Please, I'm begging you to stay. " I begged. Ilang beses ko sinabi sa sarili ko na kahit kailan hindi ako magmamaka-awa. I will never kneeled to have anything or anyone. The world will regret for breaking me into pieces but I was wrong. Unti-unti ako lumuhod sa harapan niya habang nakatingala sa kanya at sinalubong ang poot sa kanyang mga mata. " I can take the anger but please don't take my son away from me." I'm trying to look strong but my tears betrayed me. Sa gitna ng kalsada ay muli nito masasaksihan kung paano ulit ako luluhod at magmamaka-awa. Aasa na sa pagkakataong ito ay tuluyan na ngumiti ang kalagitnaan sa akin. Because even the most bad person, also deserve happiness. But maybe, I'm exception. " You don't deserve to be happy. You deserve to feel the same pain and agony," she said. I nodded. Maybe my mother was right before she abandoned me. No one will love me because I'm a monster. " B-But you're pregnant," My unborn child is giving me a hope. Pero tulad ng pagbugso ng ulan ay doon matatapos ang pag-ngiti ng kalangitan. Mababalot ng dilim ang kalawakan at doon mo mapagtatanto na masama ang maging masaya. " You're not the father of this child. I f*cked someone when we're still together." Unti-unti ako tumingala sa kanya. She's dead serious and it scared the s**t of me. Akala ko may sasakit pa noong iniwan ako ng sarili kong Ina pero may dudurog pa pala sa akin. " Y-You're lying, " I plead. " Sa tingin mo ba gusto ko mawalan ng Ama ang anak ko? At mas lalo hindi ko gugustuhin na ang maging Ama niya ay isang krimenal. A killer who killed for living!" singhal niya. Kasabay ng pag-bugso ng ulan ay ang pagtulo ng aking mga luha. " Everything is a trapped! I used you to have my revenge. At nagtagumpay ako. You took my family so let me be happy. Let me build a family that I'm longing for decades. Sa atin dalawa, ako ang mas may karapatan na sumaya," she said. But Am I ready to let her go? To witness how she will love someone, genuinely? " Who's the f*cking father? " I asked her with low voice. " Why? " " Para malaman ko kung sino ang papatayin ko. You're mine. He took you away from me. " my jaw is aggressively moving in anger. " Zech! Gawin mo at kahit kailan hindi kita mapapatawad. You always sabotaging my happiness!" her burst in pain. Isang butil ng luha ang nagpalaya sa akin mula sa aking ilusyon. Seeing her in pain is my weakness and seeing her in tears is the dead of me. " I c-can accept the child. Handa ako maging mabuting Ama para sa kanya. Handa ko talikuran ang buhay na nakagisnan ko. I can even surrender myself in cops just to have you, again. Kahit hindi mo ako mahalin at pagbigyan mo lang ako makasama kayo. Please, accept me. I'm nothing without you. Susubukan ko maging mabuting tao para sa'yo, para sa inyo. I can be a father to that child. " Sinubukan ko siyang muling yakapin at sa pagkakataong ito ay nagtagumpay ako. Sinubsob ko ang aking mukha sa kanyang tiyan habang pinakinggan ang bata sa kanyang sinapupunan. " I was never been yours. Hindi ako naging sa'yo. Please, let me go. Let me build a happy family for my son. Z-Zech, pakawalan mo na ako," ang kanyang boses ay puno ng pagsasamo. " D-Do you love him?" I asked her between my sobbed. " Sabihin mo hindi at handa angkinin ka kahit wala ako karapatan, " I added. " I love him. " Three words from her and I'm setting her free. I bravely stand - up and faced her. " Mon amour, be happy. You deserve the world." I gently kissed her lovely lips. I can risk the world for her. " Not all love are real - some are faked feelings and when it's real it ends up in tragedy," she bitterly smiled. " If I'm forbidden to be happy then I'm wishing you to have your own fairytale." She left. Habang papalayo siya ay alam ko na kahit kailan ay hindi na ako muling mag-mamahal. Kasabay ng paglisan niya ay ang tulayan na pagkaka-piraso ng aking pagkatao. " At tulad ng sinabi ko, hihintayin kita sa dulo pero hindi kita pipilitin na piliin ako," I sai d in the midst of betrayal. This is Zech Chartreuse, a assassin who killed for living but little did she know that I'm just protecting the world from evil.
