Chapter 3 Third

Naya's POV

"I'm not informed that you're now living in this luxurious mansion Miko," I said while I was busy tracing every part of his house.

It's a modern design house detailed with modernity...just wow!

"It's from my blood darling, I work hard for me to owned this kind of house," he said and beside me, I saw Megan with her lips parted.

"Darling?" she asked with her brows knotted. I laughed at her reaction, it looks like she can't take what she heard. Even Miko laughed at her...this evil-minded girl.

"By the way girls let's get upstairs I'll show you the bedroom." we walked through the staircase as we reach the second floor.

Behind me, Megan spoke. "You didn't tell me that you have your sugar daddy Naya." I almost stumble when I heard it.

Sugar daddy? Na,h tell me she's joking.

"Stop with your screwy ideas Megan, he's not my sugar daddy he is my best friend. You're too malicious." I stated as she shrugged her shoulder as if she's not convinced.

Miko and I were best friends ever since we were a child, he is my neighborhood and my playmate before. We both grew up without silver spoons in our mouths, we only living our life before in simplicity and we're contented. I didn't expect that he would be this successful as me, especially that when we're both in high school, he often gets in trouble. He used to do cutting class and start quarrels in our school before. When his mom scolded him, he used to have overnight sleep in our house. He's kind of like a brother of mine and I'm very thankful for that.

"So this is the bedroom for you two and for now take some rest, I'll call you later when the dinner is ready," Miko announced before leaving us in the bedroom.

I tiredly laid myself in the soft bedroom and feel its relaxing sensation. That trip drained me so well and this rest is the one I badly need.

While laying on the bed, I look at the gray ceiling as I took a deep breath. What next now Naya?

"Naya is there's something between you and Miko?" Megan asked while she was busy combing her hair in front of the mirror.

"Of course there's nothing between us except our friendship. Miko is my best friend Megan, nothing more nothing less." I answered

"Do you think he has a girlfriend?" I chuckled.

"I don't know but I think he has so stop fantasizing him." I joked.

"You're too harsh on me Naya, I thought you were my best friend," she demanded with her pouty lips.

"I am your best friend that's why I'm giving you some advice." because of frustration she throws me the comb she was holding. Luckily it didn't hit me.

"What can you say about the foods?" Miko asked while we're having dinner.

"Kinda good." I boringly said causing him to pout and frowned at me. The food is delicious but I intended to get him offended.

"That's all you can say about my dish?" he demanded. Grin badly want to slip on my lips but I tried to hold it back. Let's just wait for Miko's reaction to being offended.

"Nothing else I can say dude aside from that," I answered.

"That hurts Naya!" he dramatically touched his chest acting like he was hurt.

"It tastes good...like you." shockingly, we both looked at Megan. She's wearing her playful smile while her gaze was on Miko. She looks like she's flirting with him through eye contact.

"Megan says I cooked it delicious then how come that your reaction says that I didn't Naya?" I laughed.

"We have different perspectives and mine is different from Megan."

"I won't cook for you again Naya, I swear!" he said in finality.

"Dude my boobs aren't scared."

"I only cook for Megan... for her only," he added causing Megan to blushed. This flirty best friend of mine.

"By the way, you haven't yet told me the reason why you came here to Manila."

"I should be the only one who would come here but Megan come with me and I can't stop her," I said.

"At least I got the right decision," Megan said while having her seductive smile.

Miko and I both shake our heads because of her. She like Miko and I think this Megan Suarez is now my childhood best friend.

"Why did you leave Siargao? Is there any problem?" he asked me worriedly as he holds my hands. In my peripheral vision, I saw Megan's eyes opened wide.

"Of course I don't have any problem, it's just my decision to leave and moved here." I lied but deep inside, I'm hurt by just simply hearing his question.

I moved here because I want my moving on process. Because I want to forget Timothy and his promises.Because I want to forget how hurt I am. I moved here because I want to heal my wounded heart.

"Why are you crying?" unconsciously, I trace my fingers on my cheeks. I'm crying again... damnit!

"I-I need to go." I pushed myself through the staircase while tears are slipping now on my cheeks. I even heard Miko calling my name but I never turned my back. I don't want him to saw my tears.

When I reach the bedroom, I immediately covered myself with the blanket and hugged my pillow. I can't stop my tears from falling and no matter how I convinced myself that I can forget him...I failed.

I thought that when I run away from him and our shared memories, I could escape from the pain but I'm wrong. I can't forget him easily and I can't heal that early.

"Dad.Mom.Kim I would like to meet you Naya, my girlfriend." spoon fell to the plates. I heard its cracking sounds and his parents deep sighed.

If their eyes could kill, I'm probably now buried where I was standing. My hands were sweating as my heart is pounding. Even my legs were like jelly and I couldn't feel my strength.

"Since when Hijo?" his fathers' asked. By just simply looking at his father's figure I'm melting because of his burning authority.

"Two months ago Dad," Tim announced beside me. I hold his hand tight because of nervousness.

At first, I already knew that they don't like me for Tim, I'm informed of that. But what can I do? I'm still a human with a heart and it's my right to love and be loved. I couldn't stop myself loving Tim even though his family didn't want me to be his girlfriend.

"Two months and yet you love her?" his mother asked sarcastically and giving me a wicked gaze.

"Maybe my brother found her as a challenge Mom." his younger brother Kim stated while tracing me, from head to toe.

"Shut up, Kim! Respect her or else you will taste my wrath. Naya let's go..." he holds my hand tight and we're about to leave their dining but because of his father, we are stunned.

"If you leave this house and choose that girl over us, mark my words, Tim. I won't consider you as my son nor a part of Estrella clan." his father announced and because of that Tim releases my hand.

When I looked at him, doubt is visible in his eyes. That was the reason why I end up running away from that house.

I leave their house and I thought he would go to follow me, but he didn't.

Why did you make me feel this pain? Don't you love me so much so it's easy for you to leave me without any explanation? You said you love me but where are you now? Why Kim your brother is the one who went to my apartment instead of you? Why did you let him insult and say rude things to me? Why did you let your family disgrace me like that? Fuck

"Naya, wake up your dreaming." I woke up crying because of Megan, slowly patting my cheeks.

"You're dreaming and it's him again?" I only nodded while I'm still crying.

A dream that I should never dream of again. Isn't it enough when my mind is awake and I get hurt every time I remember him so even when I sleep he makes me cry? I wish I'm strong enough so that I can defeat this pain given by him.

I wish I never love you this too much so that I won't feel this torture anymore. You knew that I love you so much but why did you leave me empty.

Why did you leave me, Timothy?

Why didn't you fight for me? You love me right...you said you love me and I believe you but now where are you? I'm hurt you're the only one who could heal this wound.

"Stop crying Naya." Megan comforted me.

I cried so hard on her shoulder and I secretly wish that after these cries, tears wouldn't slip again.

Isn't it enough that I'm wrecked now? Isn't that enough that he has left me for me to realize that our relationship is finally over? Damn this! I can't accept it. I can't accept the fact that he was going to marry someone else.

He promised me the wedding. He promised me that he would marry me in all church that I want. He promised me that he would fight for me and even the huge strong waves can't make us separated.
