Lea

"oh" the guy in front of me smirked "bakit parang gulat na gulat ka? Di mo ba ako namiss?" he opened his arms asking me for a hug

A smile suddenly build up on my face as I pushed myself towards him

"ba't ngayon ka lang bumalik kuya" I said as we hugged

Matagal ko naring hindi nakita si Kuya eversince he, and his dad went to the US. Anim na taon narin pala ang nakalipas

Mahigpit ko syang niyakap. Kataka taka talagang nandito sya ngayon. Akala ko hindi na sya babalik

Kumalas ako sa yakapan namin

"pasok ka na, pinagluto kita" pinisil nito ang ilong ko at inakbayan ako papasok

"Pa! Nakauwi na si Lea!"

Napangiti ako nang makita si Dad sa lamesa. Awtomatiko naman syang napangiti nang makita ako

Sa wakas! Buo na ulit ang TRILEO!

Ito ang tawag ko sa grupo naming tatlo; LEOnora, LEOnor, LEOnardo ang tatlong LEO

"Take a seat" hinila ni Kuya ang isang upuan "My Princess" he smiled teasingly

Napangiti lang ako at napailing. Namiss ko to!

"Thank you, my lord" nag bow pa ako

Natawa kaming dalawa ni kuya

"ang ganda nang bahay mo ha" Leo laughed "akala ko talaga nag jojoke ka lang nang sabihin mong magpapagawa ka nang bahay"

Oo nga pala. Wala na sya dito nung pinagawa ko ang bahay na to

I can't help but think about his ex girlfriend, Danica

Nang umalis sya papuntang US, Danica broke up with him. Ayaw nya daw kasi sa LDR. Pwede naman syang sumama

"OK ka na ba?" his smile faded as our gazes met

"Ofcourse" pag iwas nya nang tingin at nagsimulang kumain ulit "Ang tagal na rin non. Nakamove on na 'ko" he laughed a little

I just stared as he continued to dig on his plate. Kung may pinagsisisihan ako, iyun ay ang hindi ko makita ang totoong nararamdaman nya

He was the greatest liar I know. Even his eyes can't tell me what he is hiding underneath. And I hate it

Alam ko kung gaano kamahal ni Kuya si Danica. Although she was a crazy woman. I know my brother truly loved her. And that was one thing I was confused about. One thing I wish he regrets now

"Is that Leo's Sister?" suddenly a memory appeared in my mind

Ito yung araw nang party ni Kuya. The day Danica first saw me

"oh Lea? Yes, that's her. Why?" sagot naman nang babaeng kausap

Both were dancing as they talked. Halos magsigawan na nga sila dahil sa ingay. The reason why I could hear them kahit nakaupo lang ako at nakatulala

"Nakakahiya naman sya" her words echoed "When I was her age, I was a model in San Francisco"

"what about you? Have you found Mr. Right?" my brother's voice pulled me back to reality

I think I did

"No, And I'm not interested" I said coldly as I grabbed the glass and drank from it to hide a smirk

"you'll grow old alone, princess" he said and looked at me "Are you sure you're not interested?"

Binaba ko ang tubig sa lamesa bago nagsalita "I'd rather grow old and die alone, than having to take care of jerks like you"
