Warning! Mature Scenes

Present time...

Sarah

I tightened my scrunchie and heaved a deep breath when I looked at myself in my full-length body mirror. I chose to wear a skimpy black skirt and a red v-neck long sleeved blouse. To top it all, I also made sure to put on my favorite shade of red lipstick before I go to my destination today.

I had paired my outfit with my black sneakers and my purse with the envelope inside. Despite the anticipated cold showers today, I still decided to wear this as part of my plans to get him back.

It took me a long time to have the courage to wear these kinds of clothes as I am always on the conservative yet trendy type of style. I never imagined I would stoop this low. For him. Only for him.

With one final glance at my reflection, I spun on my heel and left my bedroom. I contemplated to do this for more than a week since I have come to know about their disgusting betrayal.

It is painstaking as it is. But, I am not one to quit. I am not the type of person who easily gives up if faced with a difficulty.

I love Billy. And what we have is something worth fighting for.

He was just tempted. His libido at those moments were heightened so it was easy for Nath- for that woman- to seduce him. He is just a guy with needs.

And, I was neither strong nor ready enough to give myself to him. Before marriage.

I consider sex as sacred. Something that is ought to be precious and should be done within the grounds of marriage.

But, at this very moment, I am doubting my beliefs. I am doubting my principles. And, it is all because of love.

I reached his house and politely greeted their helpers and Tita Odette as soon as they saw me. Tita Odette was a little surprise to see me— probably because, in this outfit, I feel like q different person— but she still gestured me to his bedroom which I courteously nodded in acknowledgment.

When I stood in front of his room, I was having second thoughts on whether to enter his cave or not. Apparently, before I can even decide, he can already feel someone is outside.

"Kung sino ka man, pumasok ka na dito." He called out in a bored voice and I can hear the sound of an action movie being played on the television.

After taking a few deep breaths, I kept my chin up and entered his room. He slowly turned his head ar me and met my eyes.

"Hello, Love." I said and his jaw dropped when out of the blue, I aggresively clung to his neck and kissed him like crazy.

For a moment, he was stunned with what I did. We were in heat of the moment and not realizing his hands were already on my waist.

I felt myself flush when his warm hands became eager to clung to my thighs. Its as if I became liberated for a while and my senses came back to me.

He was drowning me with his kisses but I was able to stop him when he attempted to touch my chest. I pushed him to his bed and stared at him, teary-eyed.

"I-I'm sorry." I stammered and wiped my tears with the back of my hands and removed myself from his lap. "I cannot do this." With that said, I grabbed my bag and pulled my skirt down before I ran to his door and leave him alone.

I hurried my way out of their house, tear-stung and overwhelmed with bowled-over emotions. I was quite thankful when a taxicab seemed to be approaching my direction but it turned right, ignoring my calls.

My hands were gripping over my chest as I heaved deep breaths. I was certain I was having another attack which my parents don't know of. I felt myself gasping for air and before I knew it, I completely blacked out at the streets in front of Billy's house.

I have no idea what happened next because when I woke up, white ceiling and white walls greeted me. The smell of hospital invaded my nostrils and a dextrose was inserted in my hand.

I saw mom crying on the chair just beside me and I felt my own eyes welled up again.

"M-ma." I said almost in a whisper.

"Sarah! Anak!" Mama wailed and stood up as she went to my aid. "May masakit say'o? Bakit hindi ka nagsasabi? Teka, Nurse! Doc!" She said frantically as she pressed on the intercom.

Soon, nurses and a doctor came rushing in to my room. They took on my vitals.

It was at that moment when I felt my heart breaking apart as Doctor Hubbard broke the news to my mom.

"I'm afraid you only have three to four months to live. Your illness took a long time to be consulted. Hindi na maagapan." Dr. Hubbard said and at that time, I can only stare at him blankly.

My feelings died. My hope died with the news. My goal of restoring my relationship with Billy went into ashes.

Maybe, Billy does deserve to have someone else. And it's not me.
