“You sure you’re leaving for real?” Meg asked besides me with her gloomy eyes.
"You know the reason why I am leaving right? I don’t wanna be in trouble especially that I am nothing compared to them." I stated. Another reason is that I found out that the man I used to love is now getting married,so what’s the reason for me to stay?
“So where are you gonna live now after you leave this island?” I took a deep breath.
“In Manila? Wherever the waves bring me.I just need to leave this place to have my moving on process.” just like those seashells drifted by the waves,
"When are you living?” my eyes rolled when Megan throw me another question.
“You’re not an investigator right?You have too many questions.” I demanded.
“Just answer me Naya.” she said
“Uhm…tomorrow.”
"Tomorrow?Why that’s too early?"
"When should then?After a month or a year?" sarcastically I asked her.
"Okay…okay calm down I’m just asking you know?”
After we have our short conversation,we decided to go back on work again.The café was loaded of costumers and it’s really that tiring.Looks like after this day I’m totally drained.
"Here's your order, Ma'am." I quickly returned to the counter to get the other trays of order.Shit…my legs hurts!
I can’t even get some rest because of too many orders.
"Here’s for table four Naya!” Megan shouted.I took the tray and walked through the table four.
While walking I didn’t intend to heard some girl talks.Their talking of someone reason for me to get interested.
"Did you hear the news? Timothy Estrella is now going to be married and guess who’s the lucky girl?”
"Who?Is she the famous fashion model?"
"Nope.He was going to marry Verone Sandoval."
"Is it true?”
“Ofcourse.Infact their really meant for each other right?”
“Yes they are.I just can’t pictured it out how Tim have his past relationship with just a waitress.”
I froze because of what I’ve heard.The man I love is now going to marry my best friend's sister.Why Megan didn’t tell me?
"I pity that waitress girl.Imagine how Tim make fun on her flesh.” my fist clenched into tight balls as I heard them telling those theories.
I continued to walk as I tried to controlled myself.Bedwarmer huh?Maybe that was the true intention of Tim to me but he didn’t succeed.He have my lips but he never laid his single fingers on my body.
"Here's your order,Ma'am and Sir."
As soon as I served their orders,I run into the stock room and tears rushed from my eyes.Memories with Tim flashes on my mind.The way we used to shared our smiles.His comfortable hugs that make me feel I’m secured and most of all,his sweet and gentle kisses.
“You’re the girl I want to spent my whole life with Naya.”
Fuck it!I was fooled by your hugs and kisses.I was fooled by your promises,Tim and I regret it now.I should have known that your sweet words can deceive.You gave me the promises and I hold onto it but now,what happened?
You make me believe and yet you left me wreck and broken like a glass.You left me hanged into our dreams.Fuck you!
"Stop crying Naya." I turned my gazed into my best friend standing in front of me.
"I thought you will never cried again for that asshole?" she sit besides me as she hold my hands.
"M-meg…” I almost whisper and tears fell down again on my cheeks.
"Lemme hug you.” she hugged me tightly.I'm ver thankful that I have her…I have Megan Suarez as my best friend.
"This is the reason why I didn’t tell you that Timothy is going to marry my half-sister.I know that you would cry a lot again and I can’t take it.You cried a lot and that’s enough Naya.” she caress my back.
"Unlucky for him that he was going to marry my evil sister.He didn’t make the right decision as he choose Verone over you.” she added.I'm still crying but hearing her words are enough to lessen my tears.
"Why does it hurts a lot Megan?” I asked between my sobs.I heard her took a deep and heavy breathe.
"You love him.That's enough reason why you’re been hurt.It's part of a break up.”
"Am I beautiful Megan? I’m sexy right.I have fair skin and…” she cut my words off.
"Naya cut the crap.You're beautiful,sexy and almost perfect even you have you have your imperfections.You don’t have any problems.It was Timothy who has his stupid mindset.Cheer up Naya, there’s lot of man out there.Don't focused your heart to a stupid man.”
"I can do this Megan.I will leave this place and forget everything about him.” even with teary eyes,I tried to composed myself again.I smiled even if I looked idiot.
"Eh…here’s the tissue wiped out your tears.It's ruining your make-ups.”
"Let’s go outside,lots of costumer waiting for us and their orders.”
"Go first I’ll follow.” I answered.Before leaving Megan mouthed first telling me that I should wear a smile.
I fixed my make-ups first before leaving the stock room and when I saw the entire café again…. Costumers we’re doubled.
“Miss you lost your towel.” I heard a deep baritone voice from behind and my jawed dropped when I saw his face.
Shit!He was the guy I used to stole some gaze awhile ago.The one who was wearing a brown shirt and having a celebration party after winning the surfing championship.
“Miss?” he said again.Shit he’s so handsome and I can’t stop myself looking to his Adonis face and figure.
“Uhm…thank you.” I almost swallowed my own tongue just by looking at him.I can hear my heart beating so fast as my hands we’re sweating.
“Tense?” he asked and giving me the cutest grin I’ve ever seen.I stunned for a moment before giving him an awkward smile.Am I that too obvious?
“Um…no I’m not.By the way I gotta go.Thanks again.”
That was our first encounter and I really thought that it was the first and last but I’m wrong.The next day,one of my colleague called me and I didn’t expect that moment.
“Naya someone is asking for you to serve him.” Leeze announced.
I frowned as I heard her. “Why me?I currently taking my rest.” I demanded but she gave me a wicked smile.
“He wants you to be the someone who serve his foods.Go and serve him at table seven.” she commanded.I can’t do anything but to follow her instead.
With my brows knotted, I walked through the table seven.Who's this bullshit disturbing my current rest…God!
“Here’s your order Sir.Enjoy your meal.” I said as I giving him his orders.
“Hello.” as soon as I heard his familiar voice my eyes open wide.When our eyes met for the second time, I could heard again my own heart beating so fast.
“H-hello.” I answered in nervous.
“Tense?” tense?yes I am tense.
“Mind if you join me?” I stunned for a second when I heard his words.Am I hearing it right and clear?Is he asking me to join him?
“Um…I’m sorry Sir but it is prohibited…” he cut my words.
“Then you’re allowed now.” He said full of authority.I can’t do anything but to join him and actually,it giving me the feeling of a butterflies in my stomach.
“Let’s eat.” I awkwardly smiled.I can’t believe that the man I stole some gaze yesterday is now eating in front of me.No, erase that.We're actually eating together…geez!
“By the way, I’m Timothy but better called me Tim.” he said as he laid his hands.
“N-Naya Luiz.” I answered.
He smiled. “Half American?” I nodded.
Two months ago I thought I was lucky because I met him.That I was lucky because I got the chance to eat with him,but it’s actually not.Because meeting him is a big mistake that happened in my life.I was wrong giving him the chance to entered my pieceful life.I was wrong for loving him.I'm too idiot and stupid for believing that he really loves me.His sweet smile deceive me,as well as his lips that I love to kiss.
Everytime he smiled at me I’m like an ice cubes under the burning sun, melting slowly.Everytime he giving me hug, looks like I can’t take him away from my body.He seems to be a drugs and I’m too addicted.
And when he gave me the promise that he would marry me, my life turns upside down.It’s too late for me to realized that Elsa in Disney Movies is right.We can’t marry a man we’ve just met.And now I regret believing to Timothy’s promises.
