CRUISING Part 21: . I went to Cathys house, my bestfriend. I told her everything. Everything that happened at the coffee shop and everything that Daniel said. She just let me cry, touching my back and comforting me but no one can stop me from crying. Im so hurt. I thought I already got over him. I thought I have totally moved on but no! My love for him did not vanish. It never fades. It just sleep inside my heart and now I cant do anything to stop it. The pain keeps on increasing, my chest feels so heavy. Later on. Vince came, Cathys boyfriend, our workmate before in the cruiser ship. He saw me and asked me what happened. Cathy told him everything and asked me if I let Daniel explain. No. I did not gave him the chance to explain. I said in a husky voice. Youre a dumb girl. You should have listen to him first. Vince annoyingly said. and why? Why should I? Vince started explaining... Listen. Daniel came at your meeting place. He was walking towards you when a group of men grabbed and brought him to somewhere. He was beaten and left by the streetside almost half dead ohh. what about the money? how could you explain that? I asked. Horrified. its not Daniel who received the money. It was his brother. His brother was threatened by your mother. Your mother told him not to tell you the truth or else their mother will die and so his brother lied to you. Daniel was dying in a hospital for almost 8months. He was in a comatose Vince clearly elaborated. I horribly cried again. how could you let this happen? why did you not tell me this earlier? How dare you? how dare you. I keep on crying while punching Vinces chest. I never tell you coz I saw that you seem not to care for Daniel. You did not even ask me and it seems that you have moved on easily how dare you! if ever I lose him then it will be your fault. I can never forgive you I bluntly said. its ok but you have to hurry now before he left. Hes going to Tagaytay now via bus Vince said. oh you brute. I really hate you. I have to go now before I could kill you. I need to find him. I jokingly said while wiping my tears. go girl! bring home the bacon! Cathy cheers me up. You shut up, crazy. I glared at her then smile and hurriedly ran out. I drove off to the Central Bus Terminal. I almost want to fly just to get there. Daniel come back. Come back please. I repeatedly said to myself while tapping the steering wheel of the car. I reached the Bus Terminal. Its so big and crowded. Wheres the Tagaytay bus station? Damn it! I need to see him now. I panicked. I run, walk, run, walk, searching for the specific Bus station. There! I saw it. Daniel is walking towards the bus. I called out when Im almost near. Danieeellll... Im almost breathless but I dont care about the people looking at me. He looked back and stopped walking. I walked fast and stopped 5 steps from him, catching my breath. I saw him raised his eyebrows, confused. I dont know where to start. I took one step and look him in the eyes. Where do you think youre going?I asked to Tagaytay he flatly said. no! you cant go! I commanded him. and why? he smirked. because... Because you cant leave me like this I said. My lips are shaking. Chloe you already ended everything between us. I have no reason to stay here anymore. he weakly said. how dare you. You didnt tell me the truth. You even accepted my accusations. I burst into tears. no Chloe. Ive tried to explain but you did not listen. Yes and Im sorry. Your stupid friend Vince told me everything. I became blunt, selfish, rude because Im hurt. Im sorry if I did not let you explain. Im sorry if I did not search for you because I thought you left me. Im sorry I was wrong. I misjudged you. Please dont leave me. I pleaded while tears kept on flowing down. Youre still a little girl. Youre childish and you never learn your lesson. he softly preached. He sounds ridiculous but the endearment melted my heart. I know I am, but I learned my lesson now. Ive learned that I love you and I cant live away from you for too long. I hiccuped, biting my shaking lower lip. Daniels face softened. I took one step again. Stop! dont come near me or else I will never let you go again. he shrieked with misty eyes. I smiled at him and said, I would love to, baby. Dont worry I will never go away from you again, not even a second Is that true? he asked with pure delight. yes. Thats true. I smiled and crossed the distance between us. I hugged him as tightly as I could, he hugged me back even tighter. can I ask you something little girl? Daniel asked. I looked up to him. yes? I gazed at him, smiling. can I apply as your PAF, Madam? PAF? I repeated the letters, wondering. Personal Assistant Forever He said grinning. I throw my head back and laugh loudly. No, it should Paternal Assistant Forever coz Im your little girl. I giggled and he frowned a little, Just kidding, Youre hired Mr Guidotti He smiled then kissed me. I closed my eyes and it seemed to me that Im hearing the soft music again in the cruiser ship.... The world will turn and the seasons will change, And all the lessons we will learn will be beautiful and strange. . . We can laugh about how time really flies. We wont say goodbye coz true love never dies. Youll always be beautiful in my eyes. . . . I felt like Im floating . The kiss was intoxicating, searing with passion, flaming with love.
