CHAPTER TWENTY ONE:
Peach is with Prince Caspian in the garden. She's wearing an elegant gown.
And it hurts her knowing that this gown is made by Prince Caspian's first love.
She manage to act fine and to act like everything is fine.
She wanted to know the truth in Prince Caspian's mouth. She wanted to hear all the words only to Prince Caspian.
"Are you okay Peach?" Prince Caspian asks.
Peach smile and nod. "Yup. I just woke up to early. That's why I think I'm half sleepy." And then she laughs.
Prince Caspian give her a tight smile. Not her Prince Caspian.
"So, is this going to be our last meet up for the modeling?" Peach asks. Trying to make a conversation.
Prince Caspian is im a deep thought. "Yeah, this will be the last time."
Too short. His answers are too shorts. Making the atmosphere silent again.
Peach breath heavily as she try her best to asks another question without her voice being cracked.
"Hmm, then no more meet ups I guess?" Peach mix that question with a little laugh. Trying not to make things more awkward between them.
'Please stay, I want to feel what forever feels like.' Peach thought.
She's hoping that Prince Caspian will answer her with a no but what Prince Caspian's said makes her knee wobble.
"Yeah. This will be the last meet up. And you are going to be free."
Prince Caspian' words is like a knife in her heart. Those words makes her heart shattered into pieces.
Her breath starts to get heavy and she can feel heart heart ache.
Until the last minutes that they are together, Prince Caspian didn't even look straight into her eyes.
Peach laughs sarcastically. "So this is how things will end huh?"
Her words made Prince Caspian stop tidying his brushes.
"First, they will make you feel a butterfly and now they will left you with mental trauma." She bitterly said.
"Just leave, before we regret things even more." Prince Caspian coldly replied making her eyes watered.
"What the fuck Sevastian!" Peach said in disbelief.
Prince Caspian try to leave the garden but before he can take another step, Peach harshly grab his arms making him stop.
"Do you think I'm a joke to you?!" Peach yell at the top of her lungs.
Prince Caspian look at her with a furious eyes. "All I ever did was to used you. I neve loved you. I never think of you. Never."
Prince Caspian's words makes her knees weak. She can't help but to slowly drop herself on the floor.
"So all the things that came out of your mouth is just a lies. Everything that you made me feel is just a lie." Peach look at Prince Caspian with her eyes full of hatred.
"Everything is just a lie." For the first time. Tears come stream down her face making her laugh while crying.
"I have never cried before. This is the first time since I woke up in that damn hospital bed." She unknowingly informed Him.
"And I'm crying because of your lies. I'm crying because of a jerk like you!" Peach can't help but to spat those words.
She's in pain and she's broke.
Peach woke up in a familiar surroundings. White walls, white curtain and everything is white.
She blinked a few times to adjust her eyesight. "Ugh!" Peach groand.
"Hey, hey slow down." A familiar voice said while trying to help her to sit down.
"Mom?" Her mother smile gently. "Yes baby? Are you hungry or do you want some water?"
Peach is having a hard time talking because of her dry throat.
"A water will do." She said politely.
"I'm worried. We left you here in Philippines because you said that you can handle yourself but then when we heard that you fainted in school we immediately went home." Worried filled her mother's eyes while looking at her.
It made her heart ache. Seeing her mother. Being with her mother. It made her weak like a baby.
"Mommy..." Peach's tears stat to fall in her eyes like waterfalls.
No words can explain how much she's in pain. All she can ever do is to hug her mother and cry her heart out.
"Hush, now baby. Mommy's here okay?" Her mother's sweet voice cover up her ears like a lullaby to her.
"Mommy, it's hurts like hell!" She said in between her sob.
"Shhh... everything is gonna be alright okay? Just trust in god. Hush now baby." Her mother's comforting words is starting to drown her in sleepiness.
"Mommy?" Peach mumbled. "Yes baby?"
"Can you sing a song for me?" Peach request in murmured.
She can feel her mother's smiling. "Yes, baby. I will sing for my baby."
"Sleep now, my love
Let’s leave this world for now
Come now, let’s sleep~"
Her mother's calming voice is making her sleepy but Peach is trying to resist the sleepiness because she wanted to hear her favorite song being sing by her mother.
"Sleep now, my love
Cease your weeping
Your bed is soft
Think of worries some other time~"
Peach badly want to do that. To stop thinking of her problems. She just wanted to be at peace.
Her mother's voice makes her tear up while trying to calm herself.
She's here now. Peach thought.
"Mommy, thank you so much." Peach said in a hoarsely voice.
Her mother just hummed and continue singing.
Finally. Sleepiness is eating her. Peach felt her mother's lips kissing her head.
"Sleep now, my love. Mommy's here." With one last smile, Peach finally fell asleep.
***************************************************
Peach woke up by the sound of her friend's voice. Slowly she open her eyes and meet the worried look of her two friends.
"Bitch, how come we are back in this crappy white walls?" Sue said with her bitch tone making her laugh.
"I'm getting discarded later. Nothing to worry, k?" She assured them with a smile.
"We are so worried when you fainted." Tobias said.
To think about it, she doesn't remember what happened before she fainted. All she can remember is the painful encounter with Prince Caspian.
Prince Caspian. Peach thought in a sad voice.
Yes, she's with him. And he just broke her heart.
Unknowingly, Peach reach her heart. It's being too damn fast! And it's hurts. She can feel the hurt that Prince Caspian give her.
"After the sweet memories, there is the heartbreak." Peach bitterly mumbled.
But of course. Her two friends here it. Making them frown.
"What did that mother fucker do to you?" Tobias asks. Trying to calm himself.
Peach smile bitterly. "We are over." And then she laughs. "To think about it, there is nothing going on between us. It just happened that the day come and he is so sweet with me. Making me think that something is going on." But obviously, I'm wrong.
Sue's face became blank while starring at her. "We didn't do anything. But he is beaten up so badly."
Peach frown at what she heard. There is a part of her saying she wanted to see Prince Caspian ans see if he is Alright.
"I'm mad. Because he hurt me. B--but I--it hurts knowing that he's hurt." A tear fell down on her eyes making Sue hug her.
"Stop now Peach. Let him go. You don't deserve that jerk." Sue's sweet voice makes her cry more. This girl, hee voice is always harsh. But now look at Sue hugging Peach. Saying sweet words.
Peach can't help herself but to grin. "I know. And I will let him go together with the short memories that we have."
Peach is determine to do it. And she will. She promise herself that this will never happen again.
And just like that, A wall as hard as narra is made again.
Deep inside, Peach know that her life will not be the same as when she met the Prince. The Prince who broke her heart and made her feel nothing but a pieces of trash.
"Gosh, that fucking man is a liar." Tobias nose crinkled.
Sue let go of her. "Yeah. He is a fucking liar. Saying that he will never hurt you. And now? Look at you looking like a shit."
Peach wince. "Guys, you are here to comfort me. Not to say shit things."
Her two friends laughs at what she said.
"Yeah, we are here to comfort the broken girl."
Weeks past, and Peach is trying to cop up with her life without Prince Caspian.
"You ready?" Mourge asks. Peach smirk at Mourge. "I'm always ready."
Mourge raise a brow. "Then bring it on, girl."
When Peach enter the mini stage in Bittersweet cafè, the customer's cheer for her. Making her smile.
"Thank you for coming. And I hope everyone will have a nice evening." Peach said while smiling.
Some of the customer's faces is familiar in her eyes and some are not.
Peach fix her mic before starting to strum the guitar. Mourge, being the drummer and the other owner is on their respective places.
Peach start to sing. Closing her eyes, making her feel the song.
"I see your face in my mind as I drive away,
'Cause none of us thought it was gonna end that way
People are people,
And sometimes we change our minds
But it's killing me to see you go after all this time~"
There goes the memories that she tried putting in her pandora box.
The last few weeks, she never go to school. Making her home study. Just to avoide meeting Prince Caspian.
"Music starts playin' like the end of a sad movie,
It's the kinda ending you don't really wanna see
'Cause it's tragedy and it'll only bring you down,
Now I don't know what to be without you around~"
Peach bitterly smile. Just like the song, her love for him only bring her down. And it turns of into a tragic one sided love.
"And we know it's never simple,
Never easy
Never a clean break, no one here to save me
You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand~"
The lyrics is making her laughs. Yeah, they never have a clean break up. Because from the stop, there is no them.
"And I can't,
Breathe,
Without you,
But I have to~"
Peach voice is starting to crack up. You trying hard bitch! Peach scowl at herself.
Peach tighten up her close eyes. Wishing that that her tears won't betray her.
When Peach finally open her eyes. A two pair of a familiar eyes meet her teary eyes.
"Sorry (oh) sorry
Sorry sorry~"
When Peach is finally done singing, she still looking at the man's eyes. Those eyes.
His eyes is begging. Making Peach confuse. But she never let it get in her head.
All the customers clap their hands. Peach tried to smile and look around the cafè.
"Thank you!" Peach shouts.
When she tried searching for the man's eyes, she can't find it anymore.
"Hey, looking for someone?" Kaye chi asks.
Peach smile and shake her head. "Nope."
When they get out of the mini stage. Peach face went blank.
"How dare him show himself!" She saw Prince Caspian. She's sure that it was Prince Caspian.
There is a part of her wanting to hug Prince Caspian. But she need to keep tough. Peach needs to forget him. She has too.
"Hey, Peachie baby." Peach turn around to look at Mourge. She looks hot with her black widow suit.
"Are you wearing a costume?" Peach asks.
Mourge roll her eyes. "Bitch I'm not. You are the tenth peson to ask if I'm wearing a costume."
Peach laughs. She really looks like she's wearing a black widow costume.
"I like it. Super tight making me see every curve in your body." Peach complimented Mourge.
Mourge is not skinny. Shw have the fats in the right place. But still, those fast doesn't stop her from wearing whatever she wanted to wear.
"Way you go Mourge!" Peach cheer when the owners enter the stage again. Singing the next song.
When she sat in a tall stool. Peach drink her kamikaze.
Today, the Bittersweet cafè is launching their new menu. The owners decided to add liquor in their menu. But of course. They make their cafè have the right place for the liquor. There is a mini bar inside the cafè. Far from the eating customers.
"The next song is for the fuckers who lied to their exes." Mourge harshly said making Peach and the other customers laughs.
"In short. This song is for our madafaka exes! Cheers!" Oh, Mourge. She even have the nerve to have a shot before singin. All of the owners! Even her cousin.
"Is my cousin broke?" Peach asks herself.
"I'm done hating myself for feeling
I'm done crying myself away
I've gotta leave and start the healing
But when you move like that, I just want to stay~"
Peach laughs before taking another shot. The lyrics is indeed for those who need to moved on.
"What have I become now?
Looking through your phone now, oh no
Love to you is just a game
Look what I have done now
Dialling up the numbers on you
I don't want my heart to break~"
Peach frown. "I should have sing that song." That song is basically for her!
The lyrics remind her how Prince Caspian play with her feelings.
The song made Peach think. Is he sleeping peacefully after he fuck with her head?
Gosh! What a devil he is! And he is here!
"Ang kapal ng mukha." Peach winced. What a fucker.
"I see you drinking alone now huh?" A familiar voice said making her heartbeat fast.
What the fuck! Prince Caspian! You have the nerve to talk to me!
