Chapter 22: CHAPTER 23
I called Leo's bodyguard to guide him home. Yet, his mom wants to talk to me but I declined and said.
"It's fine, and I'm fine."
It was nothing and those were no big deals. Nina was looking for me because I left backstage to talk to Leo and clear everything.
He's still the man on his own. Leo is still the same as before, nothing changes.
Except for this idiot doings he did to the pageant. He causes a scene! for Pete's sake.
How dare he ask me those questions. Is he questioning my moving on! and letting him go forever!
I tweak my hair and went inside my bathroom to take a quick shower. My make-up is still fine, but I should remove it all.
Forgetting how further I spent just to walk well in the aisle. Such a hesitation of bragging myself to join.
Shouldn't have agreed to Nina. I almost forgot that I have a daughter at the moment that I said yes to their merciful faces.
After a quick bath, I went beside my daughter and hug her from the back. I miss this angel so much, this angel is making me relax.
"How long will it take before I forgive your father baby?" I ask while caressing Ely's face.
Why am I asking my daughter about forgiveness? You are an idiot Lucia, idiot.
I felt the tiring feeling and slowly my eyes were closing. The only thing I heard is my snore and breathe.
The rain's noise woke me up and felt the coldness of the air. It wasn't a good day to play in the park because it was still raining.
My mom did a promise to Ely that they'll play in the park nearby the cafe I always go to.
Now it's still raining and the park was all wet. Ely can't play there because of its fu of mood.
It's Saturday and no class, so I decide to go cook breakfast at 8 am. Before that, I went to grocery stores to buy some fruits and meat.
Ely loves to eat Caldereta and Chicken so I'll be cooking those.
While I was in my car I texted Keanna if she can visit Italy. As I was walking through the entrance door I notice that the market was quite colorful.
Ohh, maybe there's a celebration. Hmm, maybe there's an opening... or something.
I went to the chicken station before going to the meat section. Those are fresh and you can tell it frozen.
After picking at least 3 kilograms of meat. I went to the baby girls' station to buy some dresses for Ely.
Some of the sales ladies were looking at me. While they were busily entertaining other customers.
What's with their looks. I was busy, picking that beautiful dress when someone locked his left arm on my waist.
I gasped and tried to run but he was so strong and I can't unlock his hands.
I stepped on his foot so that he would let go of me. Knowing that it was kind of too much for me to do that but it felt right.
"Leo!?" I snarled while looking at him.
"Hi, I just really wanted to talk to you," He pleaded in front of me.
"Are you out of your mind!? We're done that's it!" my mouth grumbled.
"Lucia just please! Listen! Listen, please. Please. Please just this time," He tried to reach my hands but failed.
I wasn't expecting him to kneel in front of me. The pain was with him but I don't understand why I can't talk to him right now.
Maybe because there is nothing to talk to.
Even if he explained further, I won't accept him. I won't cause I can't.
"Leo," I paused and tried to face his painful eyes.
"Leo, what happened between us in past is nothing to do right now. We ended each other and I'm sorry I can't talk to you. Nor forgive you," I admitted.
I turned my back at him and leave him kneeling on the floor.
My hands hurriedly hid the baby clothes and shoes, scared that Leo might find out that I have a child.
I cant understand and know why Leo kept forcing himself on me knowing that I don't care anymore.
Forgetting everything is the right decision. Including him. But why does he keep forcing it?
As I was about to turn in the counter area. When someone pulls my dress, causes me to bump into a manly body behind me.
"What the fu--,"
"Leo!?" I snapped, realizing it was Leo who pulled my dress.
"I'm s--,"
"The fuck do you need!?" I shouted in frustration.
I'm so tired of this set-up!
I'm so tired of him!
Why can't he understand that we're not going to be okay?
"Lucia just once. Let me explain everything, please," he begged and held both hands.
I lifted my hand away from him. He was a bit shocked but perhaps he understands what it means.
"You're the one who ruined us, Leo. So if you're asking some mercy from me? Fuck off," I murmured.
I left him speechless. I know what I did was right but why does it hurt this much?
He called me twice but ignored those and went into the counter to pay for everything bought. Everything is paid and packed so fast.
The pouring rain is lunatic. The rain, really understands what I felt right now. How ironic.
Does the rain pour everything when she felt it's now heavy? or maybe it was her way to chill herself.
When I reach the exit, the whole ground was all wet because of the heavy rain.
But instead of waiting for the rain to stop. I run through it till I reach my car.
My dress was all wet so was my hair. If only I knew that it will rain again, I should have brought my umbrella.
I was a bit far and my car where parked at the end of the parking lot. It wouldn't be this hard if their parking lot were on the ground floor of their building.
Finally! I found my car. I went inside my car and drove away from that place.
