B2 Chapter 9

Dear Mrs. Dale Barber,

I miss you!

I wanted to tell you those words that night we had dinner at your family's house.

I wanted to ask you to choose me and let me be your future husband again.

Pero naduwag ako.

Naduwag ako na sabihing mahal kita dahil baka hindi ako ang piliin mo.

Baka kasi hindi na ako ang gusto mong maging future husband.

It was just a statement made by a 7 year old kid so why should I expect you to honor it?

You already had Marco.

Besides you thought Lexie and I are together.

I wanted to tell you the truth about me and Lexie.

I just used her to forget you and she knew it.

Pero aaminin ko kahit paano ay napamahal na sya sa akin.

But it was never the same as the love I had for you.

I know it was wrong of me to use her to forget you.

Ganun ako kag*g*!

But then when you told me to forget about being your future husband, I decided why not just learn to love Lexie?

Maybe in time I'll learn to love her and I'll forget you.

But I guess I never really did.

I just made myself believe that I did because I was blinded by my jealousy of you and Marco.

And now, you are suffering the consequences of my cowardice and jealousy.

I just hope that in time you can forgive this coward who hurt you.

Because I swear from now on I will no longer be a coward.

And I will always be only...

Yours,

Edward

PS Day 9 of missing you

Present

Pagkapasok sa opisina ay pareho ng seryoso ang dalawa.

"Here you go!" Trish ushered her in to her office.

She looks around at the familiar sight.

Umupo sya sa swivel chair in front of her huge desk and immediately opened her laptop.

Napangiti sya nang mapansin sa gilid ng mata ang picture frame na naroon.

"You like it?" tanong sa kanya ni Trish.

Tumango sya.

"Nice touch!" puri nya sa sekretarya habang pinagmamasdan ang larawan na naroon.

Ang larawan nila ng lalaking pinakamamahal nya.

Speaking of...

Her phone started ringing.

Sinagot nya agad nang makita kung sino ang tumatawag.

Hindi pa sya nakakasagot ay nagsalita na ito.

"I love you!"

Napangiti sya.

He never fails to tell her.

"I forgot to tell you kanina."
