A summer to remember

Chapter 25

Inalalayan ni Bryan ako , si tita at tito hanggang sa libing, kinausap na rin niya ang mga ito about us.

'Walang problema sa amin, yun nga kagustuhan niya di ba, Bryan, parang anak na namin kayo ni Maxine, maging masaya kayo, lagi kayong dadalaw ha, alam nyo naman kaisa-isa naming anak yan'. wika ni tita.

'magbabakasyon muna kami sa Amerika, pansamantala'. inform ni tito

And we all hugged. Binuhos na namin lahat ng emotions in front of Jessies grave.

It hurts, really hurts, miss him a lot, his chinito mestizo looks, the way he smiled,the way he cares, ilang buwan akong hindi naglalabas ng bahay, school bahay lang. Bryan, sobrang nag-aalala na, even my friends and family. Hindi naman nauubos luha ko, sabi ni yaya, malulungkot daw si Jessie, pag laging ganito ginagawa ko, hindi daw matatahimik. So, I stand up, for Jessie, the man na kahit sa huling sandali ng buhay niya, kapakanan ko pa rin naiisip.

I talk to Bryan, pleading him, to stay away sa akin, umiiyak siya, huwag ko daw gawin sa kanya yun, Sabi ko, how can I move on, kung parati siyang andiyan, I want to. restart myself..then he go, there was pain in his eyes,

It's been five years. since I left Manila, nothing change traffic pa rin, two days na nga pala kaming nakabalik from Canada. Sumama kami kina papa at tita pagtira duon right after my graduation, too much pain, I can't bear anymore. Heto, bumalik kami, my two brothers, kagragrauate lang and they will be working in papa's company. Si yaya, kasama pa rin namin, pero may boyfriend na Irishman, , si mama and tito nasa States.

Nagmamadali ako, marunong na kong magdrive, nag-aral me sa Canada. Kasal ni Rhiza.

'grabe friend, antagal mo ha'. si Jonathan yun, flower girl anak nila ni Beth at Jane.

'ang gugwapo ng ring , coin at bible bearer'. pagbubuhat ni Alexander ng sarili niyang bangko, pogi talaga anak niya, same with Ferdie and of course pinakagwapo sa lahat ay may dear little Jess, he he he

It is a nice wedding, napangasawa ni Rhiza , barkada ni Bryan. He is standing there at the altar beside the groom, his much more good looking now, at grabe kung makatitig ha, ako , bridesmaid. The wedding singer is singing. Maybe this time...

Naglilikot si Jess, so I stand up, hinabol ko near the church door.

'young boy, do you want to go outside'. naunahan ako ni Bryan, inakay niya si Jess palabas.

'Bryan'

'yes''

'look little boy, your mama is very happy to see me''

'Bryan'

'hey, wala ka bang sasabihin, after all this years, my dear'

'wala'. then I kiss him , nagulat siya, then kiss me back'

'mama'

Napatawa kami sabay, at binuhat niya ang anak namin.

----

Two old sweethearts who feel apart,

somewhere long ago, how are they to know, someday they meet again and have a need for more than reminiscing.

Maybe this time, it 'll be love they find,

maybe now they can be more than just friends,

she's back in his life, and it feels so right,

maybe this time love won't end.

its the same old feeling, back again

its the one that they had way back then,

when they were too young to know when love is real

But somehow, something never change

and even time hasn't cooled the flame,

its burning even brighter, than it did before

it got anothet chance and if they take it

.....

Yes, we take it.' we wait for this magic moments'
