AIZEN'S POV
"Travis was fuming mad kasi hindi ipinaalam nitong batang 'to." Natatawang saad ni Daddy sabay gulo sa buhok ni Trev.
Umiwas ng tingin si Trev pero nakita ko ang bahagyang pag-nguso niya dahil sa sinabi ni Dad na siyang nagpatawa sa akin.
"Don't worry, Tita, Tito... You'll meet him, soon." Nakangiting wika niya bago kinuha ang maleta ni Mommy. " Uuwi na po ba kayo? "
" Hindi pa kami nagdi-dinner, ayos lang bang kumain na tayo sa labas? " Dad suggested na nagpatango sa amin. Mom became silent after that topic. Marahil ay iniisip pa rin nito kung bakit wala siyang alam sa nasabing engagement.
"Ako na." Agad kong hinawakan ang luggage ni Mom pero marahang inalis ni Trev ang kamay ko roon.
"Ako na, kaya ko naman." Nakangiting saad nito sa akin bago naunang lumakad at sumabay sa paglalakad ni Mommy.
" Tsk. Napaka bagal mo kasi, naunahan ka na." Daddy patted my shoulder bago ako inakbayan at sabay na kaming naglakad sa likuran ng dalawa.
"Dad, I told you many times. Trev and I are just-"
" Friends? Gasgas na yan, 'nak. Halata namang hindi ganoon ang dating sayo. " Natatawa ngunit may panunukso sa tono niya.
My parents and I are really close. Siguro dahil na nga rin nag iisa akong anak kaya ganoon na lang kami kalapit sa isa't isa. I didn't mind my age, talagang nagpapa-baby pa ako sa kanila. Gusto ko lang din sulitin lahat ng mga araw na pwede kaming magkakasama. Isa 'yon sa palaging sinasabi sa akin ni Trev. Dahil hindi natin alam kung kailan sila mawawala sa piling natin, sabi niya. Gaya na ng nangyari sa kanya.
My Mom and her mom are the best of friends ever since elementary, that's why when Tita died, Mom mourns so much that she didn't even leave Trev beside Tita's tomb. They both cried together until the last day. After that, almost a year, Mom took care of Trev. Ni hindi na nga iyan umaalis sa condo ni Trev. She said that it was her promise to Tita. To look for Trevhincy until her last breath.
I remembered the time when Tito Travis dropped the biggest bomb in her life. It was when he brought home his mistress, Helia and their daughter, Amory. That was the time when I saw the broken and messiest Trev. She was shocked, in denial and was fuming mad. We all know that when Tita was still alive, she knows about Tito Travis' mistress. She knows he has a daughter outside. But she still lives with him despite of that. Trevhincy grew up with that kind of environment. Yes, she was born with a silver spoon, was spoiled, she has everything she wants, she needs. But she was born with that kind of family when she thought at first, she is the luckies for having that kindnof family. Iyon din ang dahilan ng pagbabago niya ngayon.
Nang makasakay kami sa sasakyan ay agad kaming tumungo sa pinakamalapit na restaurant. Mabuti na lamang at may mga 24/7 na kainan katulad nito.
Agad kong hinila ang katabi kong upuan para paunahin si Trev na agad namang umupo dito kaya umupo na rin ako sa tabi niya. I noticed my Mom's glances at us but she kept her mouth shut.
