Bie POV

"Mommmmmyyyyyy" sigaw ng batang babae

"Yes, baby?" I said at bumalik sa pagluluto

"Shawn!!!!! Broke my Pencil Mom" she said and cry infront of me, iniwan ko muna yung niluto ko at kinarga si Sapphire patungo sa kwarto ni Shawn

"Shawn, baby buksan mo yung pintuan" sabi ko

Agad niyang binuksan ang pintuan habang nakayuko

"Why you broke her pencil? Shawn?" I said in calm voice

"Because she said that were just a Orphans " he said and cry

Binaba ko muna si Sapphire at inaalo si Shawn

"Yes your two an Orphans pero kahit orphan kayu, anak ko parin kayu" I smile " kahit namatay na yung totoong niyong mga magulang, nandito lang ako, anak ko kayu okay? So get up babies where going to see your Daddy Zeon and please no more crying okay" I said at tumalikod na

"Thank you for keeping us Mommy, your the best" sapphire said at rush over me and hugged me

"I love you both of you" I said

"We love you too mom" they said and hugged me

***

Habang nakahiga kami dito sa damuhan malapit sa puntod ni Zeon agad namang nagsalita si Shawn

"Mom?" He said

"Yes?" I said

"Can I ask you something?" Sabi ni Shawn, habang kumakain ng spaghetti si Sapphire

"Yes anak? What is it?" I said in sweetest voice

"Uhmm, can you tell me about your Story with Daddy Zeon?" He said

I cleared my throat

"Yes anak" I said

"A long time ago, when I was in Teenager, nakilala ko yung daddy niyo sa Convenient store" I laughed and remember what I did those days " I was just singing and then he show up at tinanggal yung headset ko, and then that day we become close, and months months later pumunta kami sa Cebu City, pumunta kami sa Private island" I paused when sapphire spoke

"Yung island na Maganda mommy? Yung pag aari ni Tito Vale?" Tumango lang ako

At pinagpatuloy yung pag kwento ko

"And the night came he proposed me, to his girlfriend" and suddenly my tears went fall

"That night when everyone sleep, he died suddenly because of Leukemia" I said and ended the story

Shawn wipe my tears using his Hands

"Don't cry mommy, were just here, we don't leave you right sapphire?" Shawn said

"Yes mommy, we don't leave you no matter what happens" they said, kaya lalong akong napaiyak

"I'm so lucky to have two of you" sabi ko habang naka ngiti at humigpit ang yakap ko sa kanila

Those 15 years have past, Vale Montefalco is now the heir of Montefalco Corporation he has 3 children's Drake, Fawn and Angelo  and their mother none other than Miss Mary Park my cousin small world right?

And those 15 years I finally move on na Wala na talaga siya, pero nandito parin siya sa puso ko

And those 15 years inampon ko si Shawn at si Sapphire they 8 years old

I'm happy and contented with my life right now

At habang nag mamaneho ako biglang  inion ni Shawn yung Radio and they was it the Song

(The that got away)

Summer after high school, when we first met,~

I remember when I first met him in convenient store

We'd make-out in your Mustang to Radiohead~

And I remember that we sing Demon on his mustang, hindi ko na namalayan na umiiyak na pala ako, somehow I didn't regret everything

And on my eighteenth birthday, we got matching tattoos~

Hindi kami nagpa tattoo bawal pa daw, I wipe my tears using my hand

Used to steal your parents' liquor and climb to the roof~

Iliterally laugh at my mind naala ko yung nag nakaw kami ng liquor sa bahay nila Zeon

Talk about our future like we had a clue~

Bat parang naalala ko lahat? Yung nakaraan? Dahil lang sa kantang Ito?

Never planned that one day I'd be losing you~

And that day, the day that you propose me, the last day na nakikita pa kitang humihinga

In another life, I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises, be us against the world~

And I promise my sweet, in another life I will be your girl, hindi ko namalayan na sunod sunod ang patak saking mga luha

In another life, I would make you stay~

In another life, I differently make you stay, nilingon ko sa backseat at nakatulog na pala yung dalawa kung anak

So I don't have to say you were the one that got away~

I miss you Zeon, I love you

The one that got away~

Please if ever makita kita ulit, please don't leave me okay, don't leave me, I will wait for you no matter what, I will wait , I love you so much my sweet

***
Nakauwi na kami sa mansion ko, lumabas  sa driver seat at tinungo sa backseat para gisingin sana yung mga anak ko

Kaso pagkababa ko, may butterfly sa sidemirror ko, a violet butterfly to be exact

"Zeon, I will wait for you, I love you"

When I said those words, the butterfly flew away
