POSSESSION SERIES 2: MAXIMO SOKOLOV [ COMPLETED/SOON TO BE PUBLISH ] ✓

EPILOGUE

In a relationship, it's not always happy and perfect. It's not always peaceful. Challenges will come to test your resilience and how strong you are together. It's a test by fate to determine how long you'll stay with each other. So when fate tests us, let's not give up easily. Fight with what you have. Because if you don't fight and the person you cherish slips away, you'll regret it for a lifetime. So it's better to fight than to give up. Even if there's no certainty that the person is truly meant for us, the important thing is that you fought, you tried.

Because after everything, you will truly feel happiness and joy. Just like her and Maximo. They fought together, and now, after the storm they've been through, they've become even stronger. They learned to love each other more. But, of course, they also reserved something for ourselves.

"What are you thinking, hmm? " He ask softly as he pressed his face on her neck.

She smile sweetly and cupped his face.
"Hindi ko inakalang, ikaw ang lalaking darating para sa akin. " saad niya habang nakatitig sa mga mata nito. "Thank you‚ thank you for accepting and loving me." Madamdamin niyang sabi.

Tumagilid ito at tinukod ang siko upang mas lalo siyang matitigan.

He smiled. "I should be the one to say thank you‚ because you came into my life. You are like a moon who gave light into my darkest night. Baby, thank you so much. Thank you for loving me. I really can't believe that this kind of beauty will fall for me." He said gently and caressed her face.

Nanubig ang mata kanyang matang nakatitig dito.

"Ang ganda-ganda mo. Mahal kita babae. " saad nito habang punong-puno nang pagmamahal ang mga mata.

Tuluyan na siyang napaiyak dahil sa sinabi nito.

"M-Mahal din kita."

Ngumiti ito at pinunasan ang kanyang pisngi.
"Tears of joy ba'to? " Biro nito na ikinahalakhak niya.

"Gago talaga. " Umiling-iling niyang sabi.

Umupo ito sa kama at kinuha ang cellphone na nasa ibabaw ng side table na katabi nitong kanilang hinihigaan.

Agad nitong tinapat sa kanilang mukha ang cellphone. Nangunot ang kanyang noo at napataas ang kanyang kilay sa pagtataka.

"Smile." Utos nito na mas lalo niyang ikinataka.

"Ha? Para saan? " Naguguluhan niyang tanong.

"I will post this on my Instagram." Umawang ang kanyang labi.

"May Instagram ka? " Hindi makapaniwala niyang tanong. Tumaas ang kilay nito at pinag cross ang mga braso.

Ma-attitude yan?

"What do you think of me? Napaglipasan ng panahon? " Natawa siya dahil sa tanong nito.

Pabiro niya itong hinampas sa braso habang tumatawa.

"Eto naman, akala ko kasi wala kang Instagram. Mukha ka kasing busy–ng tao. " Rason niya habang nakangiti.

Umirap ito na ikinalaglag ng kanyang panga.

"Just tell me if you don't want to take a picture with me. " Nagtatampo nitong saad at akmang ibabalik ang cellphone na agad niyang hinablot.

"Eto naman, napaka OA. Tampo agad? Nag tatanong lang e. " pairap niyang sabi.

"Smile ka. " Sabi niya at tinapat sa kanila ang camera na ikinangiti nito nang malawak. Pinaunan siya nito braso bago tumingin sa camera kaya mabilis siyang ngumiti at pinindot ang click bottom. Kumuha siya ng maraming litrato nilang dalawa na iba't iba ang anggulo.
