One More Chance by Jaycelle Rodriguez

Chapter 96: I screwed up

~~~Looking back now it seems so clear, I had it all when you were here. Oh, you gave it all but I took it for granted. But if there's some feeling left in you, some flickers of love that still shines through, let's talk it out, let's talk about second chances. Wait and see, it's gonna be sweeter than it was before. I gave some then but now I intend to dedicate myself to giving more~~~

-Dennis Trillo and Jennylyn Mercado-

LUKE's POV:

"What? You told her you're going to sell your house... I mean you and her house?" Patrick asked me in shock as soon as I told him my plan the next morning.

"Yes." I nodded, sighing and then got up to join him on the couch in front of my desk.

"What did she say? Did she agree?" His eyes showed confusion as he followed my moves until I finally seated in front of him.

"Yes, and she was shocked. She couldn't believe I kept the house. She thought I'd already sold the property a long time ago."

"Ohh... so what made her agree in an instant when you told her about your plan?"

That question made me take a deep breath and let it out loud.

"Hmm... I think I already knew the answer."

My head snapped at him, frowning as I saw him smirking.

"Let me guess, she said like this... (he pretended to be Sam and mimicked the way she talks)...why would I want to keep that house? I don't remember even a single memory that we became a family in that old house, besides, it would just remind me of how you fucking cheated on me! So yes, I agree to sell the house---ouch! Why did you hit me?" His face scrunched as he asked me after hitting him with a throw pillow.

"Because that's not what she said, idiot!"

He just gave me a hilarious laugh before shaking his head.

"Anyway, what exactly is the reason why you suddenly wanted to sell the house?"

I looked at him, sighing.

"Honestly, one reason is in what you said. We never had fond memories to remember from that house. Even from the day of our wedding and on the first day we moved in. All I gave her was pain and sadness. The only happy memory we had in that house was when we had Cali and the rest were hurtful ones."

"I got it---"
