Ep. 41 (The Savior)

"In another life, I would be your girl
We keep all our promises, Be us against the world"

Alyssa

"Hey!" Bati ko sa kanya.

Mabuti na lang naabutan ko siya ngayon. I badly wanted to see Isabela gaya ng request ng asawa ko. Kahit naman 'di sabihin ni Fiona. Talagang pupuntahan ko siya. Super hectic ng schedule ko lang talagang sa school recently. Pati nga si Fiona nagrereklamo na sa akin. Kaya hanggang tawag at mensahe lang muna ako kay Isabela.

I'm totally aware of what happened between them. I can't even blame my sister nor Isabela, because both of them have their own reasons.They love each other so dearly but fate gave them a twist. Fate and faith. Isang pabalik, isang papunta. Mabuti na lang sa amin ng asawa ko eh nag kasalubong kami agad sa daan.

She lost and lost weight. Ang dating masiglang brat biglang nawala sa kanya ngayon. Iba nga naman epekto ng brokenhearted. Buong sistema mo apektado. I've been there and done that but in a short period of time. Pekpek short pa nga eh kasi hindi ko hinayaan si Fiona na mawala. Kaya nabuo agad si baby namin.

She hugged me so tight and hugged her back. Mukhang nakahanap siya ng kakampi ngayon sa pamamagitan ng mga bisig ko. Haist, Isabela.

I will not judge her and Gre. I know that they will settle this chaos soon.Not now but I can't tell it when, where, and how. As soon as there is a word soon, one day they will be alright both...Soon.

She cried with all her heart. Sobbing like there's no tomorrow and a child. She's really our little brat. She has grown up so fine. Kaya nga patay na patay si Gre dito eh. All I did was hug and caress her back. Kaya siguro mas lalo siyang naiyak.She needs my arms to comfort her in this state.

Dati ko pang sinabihan si Gre na if ever mag ka ganito man. She can't blame me for comforting and ally Isabela. She has nothing. Wala siyang matatakbuhan at masisilungan pag may mga ganitong sakuna. Physically she has a lot, but emotionally I doubt it. She has me and Gre only. Well, given na ang nakapaligid sa amin pero alam ko na naghahanap siya ng comfort ngayon.

We didn't bother the people in our surroundings. As if I care.All I care is this hooman in my arms. Medyo naiyak na niya siguro ang three fourth na luha kaya tumigil na ang yugyog ng balikat niya.I just sighed. Ayon na lang ang tanging kong magagawa sa situation nilang dalawa.

"Bakit ang tagal mong di nagpakita sakin. Panay messages and call ka lang." Complain niya sa akin.Hindi pa niya masabing diretso dahil sa mga luha at hikbi niya.

Gusto ko sana siyang asarin kaso baka hampasin lang ako at mawala ko ang momentum niya.So, I choose to keep quiet about what's inside my head. Maninira pa akong moment niya eh.

But I can't control my giggle, that's why she hit me on my shoulder.

"Sorry na. Busy kasi ako." While hugging her so tight with matching sways. "I miss you. We miss you." Hinalikan ko siya ulo.

We miss her. Fiona and baby Julienne too. Dapat nga nasa bahay sila last Sunday eh. Family gathering namin yun kaso wala kasi dahil sa nangyari sa kanila ni Grenade.

Just like before, she can have my arms and shoulders to cry and lean on.This is Grenade responsibility even before.The difference was that she usually cried on Gre's shoulders when she was a little and she shed tears because of Grenade today. How playful their fate is. They're unfated to love each other.

I love them both and no one can get it. I know that she needs me right now,kung hindi nga lang busy si Fiona sa anak namin baka siya na laging kasama nito. I'm so blessed with my wife ang caring niya sa mga mahal ko sa buhay. Kahit alam niya ang totoo.Napagalitan pa ako kanina kasi mas inuna ko daw ang trabaho ko kaysa kay Isabela. Isabela is like her younger sister and my wife meant it.
