"I see you finally decided to come back."
She was startled upon hearing Aga's voice. They are now inside her dressing room.
The show is over, both of them acted so casual and civil in front of the camera.
It's as if, he never stood her up on their wedding.
She smiled bitterly at that thought, at hinarap si Aga.
"What can I say? I missed home." She replied in a friendly manner, if Aga can act as if nothing happened six years ago, she can do that too.
"Lea-- I-I'm sorry" He suddenly said and she was surprised by it.
This is going to be easier that what she thought it would.
"Wala na yun Aga. Kalimutan na lang natin." She shrug her shoulders as if dismissing the topic of the past.
"Pero Lea--"
"I said wag na nating pag-usapan." Ulit pa niya at nginitian ito.
"Why don't you come with me?" She offered.
"What?" He asked.
"I mean, the gang is at my house, welcome party daw for me, everyone is going to be there, except Regine and Ogie, so why don't you come? Afterall, may pinagsamahan naman tayo. Let's just not include what happened 6 years ago shall we?" She said smiling.
She actually thought that being away from limelight for six years will make it harder for her to act, but she was wrong.
Smiling and being friendly with the person who used to own your heart only to tore it apart, was surprisingly easy.
She guesses that desperate times called for desperate measures.
If she done it before, she can do it again, and honestly, she will do it again for the same reason : Love.
Only this time, she's more desperate. She needs to do it fast before it's too late and the clock is ticking.
She cannot lose someone she love for the second time. She just can't. She knows if she did, she'll die.
"Sure." Aga answered. "Ahm, sabay na ba tayo? Or we can use separate cars naman, I know where you live naman." He added but she shook her head.
"Actually, we'll have it at my condo. Martin and Pops will come as well. I'll just ride with them. Nagpahatid lang kasi ako sa driver ko kanina. We can convoy na lang." She stated while picking-up her things.
"Lea! Let's go na? Martin is already waiting by the car." Pops suddenly showed up when they are about to go out.
"Ahm. Why don't I drive Lea there instead?" Aga intervene and Lea and Pops looked at each other.
"Oh! You're coming pala?" Pipay asked Aga instead.
"Yeah . Lea invited me e, if okay lang sa inyo." He said.
"Syempre naman okay lang! Sige, si Viceral nauna na sa condo mo Lei." Pipay said meaningfully and she nodded.
This is it! Kaya mo to' Lea.
"Okay! Let's go na Morning!" Aya niya dito at nauna na siyang lumabas ng pinto.

Both of them are silent on the way to her condo.
After giving him the direction, she busied herself on her phone instead.
She doesn't have social media accounts, so basically wala naman siyang ginagawa sa cellphone niya, just playing Candy Crush Saga.

Hayran KurguMaybe it was her fault. Or maybe it was his? They say love can make you do crazy things, and Lea did just that. She did all sort of crazy things to get him. The question is, how far will she go to win the man she loves? When he's already in-love wi...
