When Destiny Misfires

Kabanata 34

Forever...

"So you two are married now?" He said and sipped his coffee. Pabalik-balik ang tingin niya sa'min ni AJ na para bang hanggang ngayon ay hindi parin siya makapaniwala na kasal na ako kay Allesteve.

I smiled and nodded at him again. I glance at AJ for a moment and he was staring deeply at Lyndon.

I met Lyndon today to show him the design I made. Nang malaman niya na ki-kitain ko si Lyndon ay kaagad itong sumama sa'kin.

"So you're now Mrs. Santiago, huh?" Nakangising sabi niya bago binalingan si AJ. "Congrats bro. You finally got her." Nakangiting saad niya kay AJ.

AJ smirk at him as if he was proud of having me as his wife.

"Pinaghirapan ko muna bago naging akin." He said proudly. Lyndon laughed and tapped his shoulder.

Ilang beses akong napakurap habang nakatingin sa kanilang dalawa.

What the fuck? Parang kanina lang ay parang gusto niyang patayin ng mga tingin niya si Lyndon, but now, they look close na para bang ang tagal na nilang magkaibigan.

"So... you don't need to be jealous of me now. You're married to Hira and I'm married to the woman I love. Let's be happy for our lives now." Tumango si AJ sa kanya.

"Yeah... I'm sorry Mr. Ortega. I hope you'll forgive me for having a bad attitude towards you."

"It's okay, Mr. Santiago. Gano'n din naman ako sa asawa ko kapag may umaaligid sa kanya ay hindi ko talaga maiwasang magselos." Tumango sa kanya si AJ na para bang nagkakaintindihan ang mga ito.

"Ahmmm..." I cleared my throat to get their attention. Parehas naman silang napatingin sa'kin."I thought we're here for a business? Hindi ko akalain nandito pala tayo para pag-usapan ang mga asawa niyo?" Taas kilay na sabi ko sa kanilang dalawa.

Lyndon looked apologetically at me before he looked at the design. Nakangti ito habang tinitingnan ang gawa ko.

"I love this, Hira. Surely my wife will gladly like your design." Nakangiting saad niya sa'kin.Tumango at ngumiti ako sa kanya.

"Mr. Ortega will be your last client, for now, Hira." Kunot-noong napatingin ako kay AJ nang magsalita ito.

Tumikhim ito at nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita. "Because you're going to focus on our marriage life for now. We need to gives time to our marriage, it's time for us to make a happy family." No'ng una ay hindi ko maintindihan ang mga pinapahiwatig niya pero kalaunan ay na gets ko na din naman ang ibig niyang sabihin.

"So possessive, huh?" Lyndon said while shaking his head. "Your husband is right, Hira. You should rest for a while and give time to each other lalo na't bago palang kayo sa buhay mag-asawa." Ngumuso ako sa kanilang dalawa bago unti-unting tumango.
