"May the best man win.. " This statement caught everyone dumbfounded. Jia stared at him in disbelief!
"Jim! What's going on in your head? I just could not understand you!"
Jia was furious then. She just could not understand how Jim humiliated himself. Tears of frustrations were now running down her face. Though their table was on the front row, if she would make her voice loud, they could be noticed by the crowd. All she wanted was to yell all she could, if not for the scene she would be creating if she would. She was already shaking.
She stood up and wrapped an arm around his waist and pulled him out to the door. They appeared sweet in the eyes of many, but only they could tell how harsh she already was.
"Hey, where are you two going?" Kuya Nap shouted, Jian was clinging on his side
"On a date! " She yelled back, getting the attention of the few among the crowd. They laughed, thinking it was so sweet of him.
"Uh, okay then.. Make many nieces and nephews for the single uncle! " The crowd laughed once more.
"Please take care of Jian, kuya! "
"Sure, sure, as long as he would not be lonely anymore! " Kuya Nap looked relieved and amused. He could almost predict what happened.
The moment they were out of the hall, she was already sobbing in anger. She had endured so much in controlling herself not to flare up.
"Sweetheart..." He could not go through. In the end, he chose to keep silent until they were inside the room he had booked.
The moment they stepped inside, Jia slammed the door. Her eyes emitted fire that could easily burn the man she was with! She stood in front of him as she looked squarely into his face.She then held his two upper arms with each of her hand and tugged him.
He was silent and there was grief in his eyes. This strong man in front of her whom she had always known as such, had suddenly became a weakling. Tears were streaming silently in his face. He had been devoured of his own insecurities.
Suddenly, all her desire to shout at him, was gone. Because, she now understood...
"Jim, why do you do this? Why do you have to sell me to Anthon? Why do you have to hurt yourself?" Jia was now speaking softly and painfully.
He did not say anything. His breathing became shallow. He suddenly looked afraid. After what seemed like forever, he finally replied.
"I love you more than myself, Jia. I do not want to lose you. "
"Yes, you love me but you are feeding me just now to him. It is you yourself who is losing me!" Jia answered angrily.
"There's no way I could win over
him." Jim answered her.
"Damn it, Jim! We already planned the marriage. It was you who moved it back."
"Marriage is just a piece of paper if your heart is not with it! " He argued, making Jia sigh in frustration.
"Jim, how should I say it to make you believe me? I want you, I need you and it is you that I love now. Yes, it took me long to forget him but through all the years you had been with me, how could he ever still win against you? "
"Jim, I have a human heart. It is not made of steel nor made of rock. If a simple movie could make it love the male lead, if a romance novel could make it love the leading man, how could it be numb to someone who tenderly cared for it?"
"A heart can change, Jim, a human heart can love again." Jia was now sobbing.
"He took the greatest part of you. You have given yourself to him and with that, a son was born. How could I win over him?"
"Crazy! " Jia gritted her teeth in anger.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. Jia turned her head to the door then back to him.
"Wait for me in the bedroom." She said as she walked towards the door to open it.
"How's the fight? " Kuya Nap stood outside with a wide grin, Jian was in his arms, already asleep. This man never ran out of smiles.
"Please place him in the room,
kuya! " She said as she pointed the direction of the room. "I have to hurry up! " There was still a hint of anger in her expression.
"Where are you going? "Kuya Nap asked in a confused look.
"In the bedroom. I'm going to **** your brother! " She said angrily.
"Good, good, good. Hahaha! "Kuya Nap was really amused. He exactly understood what was happening. He knew that his brother had lots of insecurities though he was good in displaying sportsmanship.Though he appeared strong and patient...
"Jia, make it sure he could not get up in the morning. You have my support! " Kuya Nap was now giggling.
Just this week, when he was on the phone with Jim, he asked him why they were still not having another baby.
"I have not touched her yet." Jim answered softly.
"What? Were you just both reciting the rosary every night you were in bed? "
Kuya Nap could not believe it. Six years of being together? And a woman as beautiful as Jia? How was he able to resist the temptation? Even some priests were reported to have sex with their fellow nuns!
"We do not share a room though at times we slept together." Jim casually answered.
"Oh, my bunny! How could you ever stay a saint? " If he himself was in his situation, a week would not pass by if he could not conquer it! As beautiful as Jia.. and he would just turn his back? Impossible!
Jia looked back at the giggling, supportive brother.
"I will make it sure he would not get up for the next three days. Take care of Jian!" She said, feeling deternined. Kuya never understood that she was not joking.
" Jia, answer me. You still did not do it? " Kuya Nap asked her without hesitation, he was still grinning in disbelief though he knew the answer.
"Not anymore after tonight! "
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
