Chapter 41

Never 

Kuya was so busy with the unending legal actions. He volunteered to handle those stuff, so I wasn't really worried that he's the only one doing it all. What's important for me right now is that Senyor is already held in prison. I don't think he still could find a way to get out of it. The evidence was all strong, plus the other people's lawsuits against him... I really don't think he still could get out of bars.

Si Okaasan ay kasama si Mommy at ilang kaibigan sa Cebu. They've been traveling a lot lately. Next week kasi ay uuwi na sila sa Japan dahil marami ring responsibilidad na naiwan.

Nasa isang club kami ngayon. Bago lang kaya naman grupo lang namin ang nasa loob. Sa pagkakaalam ko, sa susunod pa na linggo ang official opening ng club. Sa boyfriend yata 'to ng isang babaeng Montevinski.

The club is high end. This is just another branch but Mooze said that this is better compared to their main branch. Napuntahan niya na kasi ang ibang branches ng clubs. Hindi raw naman siya nambabae roon. Nahila lang daw ng mga pinsan.

Hindi maingay, sakto lang ang tugtog mula sa sound system. The neon lights are on, and the streak lights are beaming on the surroundings. Some of the Montevinskis are here with the love of their life. Kesian is already here and she was so warm to me. To be honest, lahat naman sila. Even Maddizon.

"Saan ka na naman galing?" tanong ni Rhione kay Zeus na kadadating lang.

"I'll guess. In front of the hospital?" Mooze said arrogantly with his hand around my waist. Nakaupo kami sa malaking coach, katabi ang mga pinsan niya.

"Ate Weya?" Cheonsa whispered after sipping on her glass.

Hindi umimik si Zeus at naupo na lang sa harap na couch. Inubos niya ang shot na nasa lamesa kaya naman nakaani siya ng mga asar galing sa mga kaibigan. Tiago was with his wife when I looked around.

They changed the topic since Zeus seemed not in a good mood to entertain his cousins' teasings. Hindi naman naging awkward ang paligid dahil parang sanay naman na sila sa mga ganitong asaran.

"So, when is the marriage?" bulong sa akin ni Hiraya. Siya kasi ang katabi ko sa couch.

I chuckled. Lumapit ako sa kan'ya kaya napalingon si Mooze. Kunot ang noo niya pero 'di ko pinansin. It's like I will leave or something. Umurong lang naman ako nang kaonti...

"I don't know," I whispered back because the crowd was really loud. Nagtatawanan kasi sila habang umiinom.

"Dapat magpakasal na kayo. I know Kuya is already looking forward to that day. He has loved you since you were sixteen, right? O, fifteen? Gusto ka niya na simula noong grade ten ka, 'di ba?"

Natawa ako roon. Maybe she's really close with her brothers so she knows a lot about them. Kahit kay Kuya Trev ay marami siyang alam. She kept saying things about him and his wife. Nagkukwentuhan kasi sila tungkol sa nakaraan.

"Gusto niya nang magpakasal, kaso marami pang ginagawa sa kaso ni Senyor. But hopefully, this year..." binulong ko 'yon nang sobrang lapit para hindi marinig ni Mooze. Dahil sa oras na marinig niya, baka gawin niya na next month pa lang.

Hiraya chuckled. "I want to have a niece from you. Para na rin may makalaro ang anak ni Kuya Trev. Ako kasi baka matagal pa," she shrugged and rolled her eyes. Kumuha siya ng cocktail at sumimsim doon. Namula siya kahit kaonti lang naman ang ininom. She reminds me of myself, that's why I laughed.

"Hmm, we'll see..."

"Anyway, congrats pala sa successful plan niyo. Gusto ka nang makita ni Mommy," aniya at nginitian ako. "Uh, sa Sunday, are you free? Mom would be so happy," she trailed off.
