Chapter 20 (Last)

"Momma, can I come?" Tanong ni Sofia sa malambing na boses. She sat on Olivia's lap and faced her Momma.

"No, no baby. That's for adult eh. Babies not allowed." Olivia said. Sofia pouted her lips, with her pleading eyes.

"But if my Sofia is a good girl to Mamita, Dada will give you a reward! Deal?" Christian butted in, Sofia's eyes light up. Agarang bumaba sa pagkaka-kandong ng ina.

"Okay, Dada! I love you!" She happily exclaimed and hugged her Dada. Christian carry her and showered her with soft kisses.

"I love you too, little miss!" He replied.

"How about me?" Olivia asked Sofia and went closer to them. Sofia sheepishly smiled.

"I love you too, Momma!" She said that made them laughed.

On their way to Savedra's private resort in Batanes, Christian focused on driving whilts Olivia keep on talking.

Pagdating nila ay naghihintay na sila Alex. Nagulat naman si Olivia ng mahagip Ang katabi ni Alex. She look around as I'd she's looking for someone but to no avail. She examined herself, her heart and she felt nothing.

"Tin! Attorney!" Agad na tawag ni Gesille sa kanila at kumaway.

"Kanina pa kayo?" She asked and gave her friends a peck on their cheek.

"Hindi naman, mga 30minutes." Alex replied. Olivia smiled and nod. She then looked back dahil nagpaiwan pa si Christian. She then faced them again.

"I see. You can go inside na," she said but they insisted na sabay-sabay nalang sila pumasok sa loob ng resort.

"Hon, tumawag si Mommy. Nakita mo ba 'yong favorite teddy bear ni Sofia? Nagta-tantrums na daw eh. Hindi nya mahanap." Christian told her and greets them the latter.

"Nasa kwarto, hon. She left that last night." She replied. Christian nod and jots to his phone.

Napansin rin agad ni Olivia na tahimik lang na nakatitig si David sa kanila ni Christian. Christian snaked his arm around her waist as if he's owning her. As soon as he'd finished jotting, he faced them and smiled. Then he saw David.

"Ah, Attorney. Si David nga pala. David, si Christian, Kerstin' -"

"Fiancee." David cut Alex off.

All eyes on him. Nagtataka kung paanong nalaman ni David. And as if David knew what was on their mind, he smiled.

"I was there. Congratulations, Tin. Christian." He said, a sudden pinched on his heart he felt.

He never expected na may sakit pala. Na maghaharap sila ni Olivia Kasama ang lalaking muling nagpasaya sa babaeng mahal nya. Iniunat nya ang braso para makipag-kamay kay Christian.

"David, pare." He politely said. Christian shakes his hand and replied.

"Christian, thank you pare." He smiled and nod. He then greets Olivia. Ngumiti si Olivia at tumango.

Pagkatapos ng tagpong 'yon ay nauna nang maglakad sila Olivia at Christian, hand and hand whilts the others follows.

"Awkward." Bulong ni Alex kay Gesille.

Sa unang gabi nila, nagtipon silang lahat sa tabing dagat. Si Alex at Gesille naman ang nanguna sa kaingayan bilang hindi naman natigil ang bangayan ng dalawa sa araw-araw o kahit kung kelan sila nagkakasama.

"Ayos ka lang ba, pare?" Tanong ni Jordan kay David dahil pansin nila ni Keon ang panay pagtingin nito kay Olivia at Christian.

"O-oo, ayos lang." He replied.
