Abelino Pete Felixiano

Kabanata 35

4 years after...

''So, you have a plan to come back?'' I was taken aback by Alton's question.

I glanced at him and raised my eyebrow a little bit, I am still sipping wine from my glass.

''Di ba halata? Syempre babalik ako!'' I promise to comeback for Abel, I still love him walang labis walang kulang.

''Dalian mo na sis, baka magpakasal na iyon kay Ashley'' sabi naman ni Mel, asawa ni Alton.

We are in my Studio, sa loob ng office ko. They wanted to see me that's why they came here earlier at nandito parin sila hanggang ngayon.

Parang may tinik na tumusok sa puso ko. I am hurt because I know Abel is seeing someone else, a celebrity. Patricia is gone, may pamilya na, I don't know how but I am happy for her.

Di naman kasi talaga sila magkakatuluyan ni Abel no! Di ako papayag, akin parin si Abel and yes, I am planning to get him back when I go home.

Akin siya noong una eh, dapat akin parin siya hanggang sa huli.

I smiled. ''Alam kong mahal parin ako ni Abel'' I said confidently but doubting my heart. Ewan ko kung mahal niya pa ako matapos ng lahat ng ginawa ko. Iniwan ko siya pero para naman iyon sa ikakabuti namin eh.

Alton burst a laugh so loud that's why Mel hit his shoulder. ''Shut up, Alton! Pinapakaba mo si Ali!'' she exclaimed and I smiled.

Alton is my boy best friend and same with his wife na mas close ko ngayon. Mapang asar kasi si Alton, palagi niya akong tinatakot na magpapakasal na daw sa iba si Abel kaya ako naman itong tanga na mahal na mahal si Abel, umiiyak talaga dahil sa takot.

Pero hindi ngayon. Uuwi na ako, babalik na ako... Siguro naging sapat na ang apat na taon para mahilom ang sakit ng nakaraan namin though nandito parin naman ang sakit ng pagkawala ni Tonton but time goes by and I realized that Tonton was not meant for us, baka may plano ang diyos para sa amin.

''I'm just telling the truth, Love. Abel is different from Abel who's so in love with her in the past, madami ng nagbago. You need to come back fast, baka maunahan ka sige ka. Iyak ka talaga'' pananakot niya pa sa akin.

I pouted.

Damn you, Alton. I am really scared. No way.

''Voy a volver y tenerlo de nuevo, lo amo y lucharé por él 'hasta el final'' I said in spanish.

He smirked at me ''Pues buena suerte, quiero verte en un futuro con mi hermano si te vuelve a aceptar'' he said back at me.

''Ewan ko sa inyo, di ko kayo maintindihan. Let's just talk about business here'' sabi naman ni Mel na parang nairita sa pag e-espanyol namin.

Pareho kaming natawa ni Alton.

''Well... This is not my office kaya hindi tayo pwede dito mag-usap. Duon tayo sa company namin'' sabi ko sa kanila.

Their mouth parted. ''What the hell, Ali?! I thought this is your office! I thought we can talk here!'' Alton hissed.

I shrugged and sipped wine. ''This is my studio office, hindi ako negosyante dito, Photographer po ako dito kaya malas kayo. Duon ni'yo dapat ako pinuntahan sa Company namin.'' I explained and they just like can't believe, shock was written all over their faces. I want to laugh.

Alton groaned. ''You are unbelievable'' sabi niya pa sa akin. Napatawa ako.

''Di nakakatawa, Ali. Alam mo namang may tatlo pa kaming anak na naghihintay sa amin'''si Mel naman na mukhang inis. Mas napatawa ako.
