Khalil Spinel Evangelista's P.O.V.

It was the first time in years that dad told us to eat dinner at home together.

The air was heavy and i know exactly why.

"Sir chandler alexander sent a letter that the engagement will now be nulled and invalid, no news from the indigo's yet" dad's tone, grim and disappointed.

Hearing it now even in my dad's normal voice, sound so loud, it almost makes me feel deaf.

What goes wrong? We were fine in paris and now...now she wont even look at me or talk to me.

Parang dati lang.

parang dati na hindi ako nageexist sa buhay at paningin niya, i was just some irrelevant person na classmate niya, i bitterly thought too myself. The fuck khalil tinamaan ka talaga big time, so stupid.

A hand lay itself on top of mine at doon lang ako nag angat ng tingin, mom "what happened? Nag away ba kayo ni sapphire?" Tanong niya na may pagaalala.

I smile at her sadly before shaking my head.

Siguro yun yung mas masakit, i didn't know what happened, i didn't know what had gone wrong cause as far as i remember it wasn't me who hurt her. Those twin did that, those twin hurt her.

"No mom we didn't, maybe it was something personal mom, dad, lets not make a big deal out of it" kalmado kong sagot even if deep inside i have a lot of question to ask, a lot of things running inside my head and all of them involving katana.

They stare at me before slowly nodding at me understandingly, mom rub my hand using her's while still looking ay me with a hiny of worry "im fine mom really" i told her reassuring as i put my free hand on top of hers before giving it a light squeeze.

She nodded with a small smile "sige lets just eat"

And thats what we did. We ate avoiding the topic of me and katana.

But it doesn't mean that i'll leave it at that.

Hindi ko hahayaan to ng hindi nalalaman ang dahilan at nang hindi kami nagkakausap ni katana ng maayos.

After lunch i head back to the school after sending katana a message saying

Lets talk at the old garden

Hindi ko alam kung dadating ba siya o hindi but i'll wait for her.

I sit myself on the edge of the fountain facing the entrance from the junior year hall.

A couple of minute became an hour...

An hour became five hours till it reach nine o'clock pm, my stomach already grumbling from hunger but i continue waiting.

I refuse to leave dahil baka bigla siyang dumating at wala ako baka isipin niyang na ginugood time ko lang siya.

I was busy looking at my phone when someone spoke...

"Are you trying to make me feel guilty? Cause its not working"

The one i've been waiting for.

I immediately look up before hopping off the fountain edge where i was sitting in.
