CUPID ON VACATION (FRANDEESAL)

EPILOGUE

Frances' POV

Jaydee called Dad para sunduin ako pero mukhang tulog na ito kaya si Tita Naomi nalang. I expect her to be mad because I stole her car pero di ganun ang nangyari. Siguro nga lahat ng ineexpect ko di nangyayari.

Sabi pa ni Jaydee kanina,

"I'm sorry for ruining your birthday."

Haaayst.

Andito nako ngayon sa loob ng kotse with Tita Naomi.

"Hey, cheer up. Di pa naman katapusan ng mundo. At least di pa sya kasal. Magbabago din ang isip nun." Sabi ni Tita Naomi.

"P-po?. What do you mean?."

"Frances honey, di ako bulag o manhid no. Alam ko that there's something going on between you two. Napagdaanan ko na yan, remember?." Napayuko nalang ako.

"Di nya ko pinili Tita."

"I figured. Nadaanan ko sila kanina sa may central school.
I agree that Jaydee is worth the heartbreak but not the choice to be miserable for the rest of your life."

"Pinakawalan ko na po sya Tita. I want her to be happy."

"I know. And you did the right thing. You don't know how proud I am of you right now." As she looks at me appreciatively.

Amy's POV

KINABUKASAN

Okay na kami ni Laney. Naisip namin na wala din namang patutunguhan ang pagtatalo. Nakipagkita ako sa kanya dito sa isang coffee shop para sana pag-usapan kung pano namin masusulusyunan ang problema na sinimulan nya namin nang biglang pumasok si Jaydee at Madie. Di nila kami napansin. Umupo sila sa kabilang table. 2 tables away from us.

"It's gone." Once I realized it.

"Ang alin?." Takang tanong ni Laney.

"Ang arrow. Laney, Jaydee defied the spell."

"Pero sabi sa libro impossible yun. There's no way."

"Akala ko rin." 

But I guess their love is stronger than any spell or curse. I thought magic can manipulate love but turns out love manifests how unreal magic is, because in love there are no tricks, just the truth.

Jaydee's POV

In a world that keeps telling me to believe in magic, Madie made me believe in love.

Frances' POV

Lumipas ang ilang buwan. Grumaduate narin ang batch nina Jaydee, ibig sabihin lilipat na sya ng school. Hindi ko alam kung saan kasi di na nga ulit kami nag-usap saka lumipat na siya sa isang Tita nya pa na kakauwi lang from States, pinsan din ng Dad niya si Tita Winona. She's a widow at walang anak. Ang kwento ni Daddy sundalo ang asawa ni Tita Winona.

Siguro nga si Ate Madie or Madie ang nagwagi. And that's why she's the real QUEEN. She's born to be one. Apilido nya palang–Epilogo, pang end game na.

Grade 12.

June. Back to school. Malungkot ang bagong school year dahil maliban sa di nya ko pinili ay di ko na rin sya makikita. 

Pero ikanga ng matatanda, kapag may umalis may darating. Nasa harap namin ang class adviser naming si Miss Anne.

"I would like you all to meet your new Biology teacher, Miss Eve Ezekielle Pablo. Miss Kielle, you may now come inside." At nang pumasok sya,

Look at the stars
Look how they shine for you
And everything you do
Yeah, they were all yellow

How could someone be that attractive, smart and composed?. I don't know but it somehow felt like she just lit up the room. Majority samin especially the guys ay nakatitig lang sa kanya. She looks young.

I never saw someone who looked that amazing in a teacher's uniform. Fixed hair, fit blouse, pencil skirt and heels. She pulled them off perfectly. And damn she smells good too.

Puso naman kalma lang, teacher mo yan.

I came along
I wrote a song for you
And all the things you do
And it was called "Yellow"

So then I took my turn
Oh what a thing to have done
And it was all yellow

Your skin
Oh yeah your skin and bones
Turn into something beautiful
Do you know
You know I love you so
You know I love you so

And that's another story to tell.
