Cheska's POV
When Tanner Cedric dropped the bomb about calling off the engagement, halos mahimatay ang parehong mga nanay namin. Aaminin ko, nalungkot ako sa naging desisyon niya pero hindi ko siya magawang pigilan dahil ayoko rin naman maging selfish. Naisip ko kasi, he has always been my comfort zone, and I wanted to set him free. Hindi ko lang magawa noon kasi natatakot ako.
A week after that, lumipad agad si Tanner Cedric papuntang LA. Everyone was so emotional, especially ang The Kaisers. I am still fond of calling them that sa sobrang solid nila.
"Cheska, about my brother..." Margaux trailed off. We decided to meet sa coffee shop malapit sa firm ko. "Have you given a thought about it?"
I nodded. "I decided to face him. Wala naman din kasing mangyayari kung parati nalang akong tatakbo sa nakaraan."
"Will you still consider him, though?"
Nagkibit-balikat ako. "I'll just cross the bridge when we get there. For now, gusto ko munang marinig yung side niya."

Margaux told me to go to the usual spot, me and Bryce used to hang out to. Yung maliit na museum malapit sa local parish ng place namin. I saw Bryce right after entering the front door, nakatingin siya doon sa painting na pareho naming gusto, yung The Awakening.
"Hey." Panimula ko.
"I thought you're gonna stood me up." Hindi pa rin tumitingin sa akin si Bryce. "I really missed this place."
"Ako rin."
"The Awakening, huh?"
Then there was an awkward silence that lasted for about 15 seconds.
"Cheska." / "Bryce." Panabay namin na sabi.
"Go ahead." Sabi ko sa kanya.
"You know, I really don't know where to start and I think that we should get out of here." He said, nabigla ako ng hawakan nya ako sa braso at igiya palabas ng museum.
"Bryce, wait..." I stopped. "I brought my car with me."
"Oh... If that's the case, gusto mo convoy nalang tayo?"
I nodded. "Okay."
Nagtaka ako ng biglang marealize ko na sa isang executive subdivision sa Tagaytay ako dinala ni Bryce. Tumigil kami sa tapat ng isang modernong bahay.
"Anong ginagawa natin dito at kaninong bahay 'to?" Agad-agad na tanong ko ng makababa ako ng sasakyan.
Hindi sumsagot si Bryce bagkus ay dire-diretso lang kami papasok sa loob ng bahay, wala akong nagawa kundi sundan siya. Pagtapak namin sa patio, binuksan nya ang pinto at laking gulat ko sa bumungad sa akin.
