Chapter 32

Athalia's POV

"Congratulations everyone!" masayang bati ko pagkatapos ng program.

"Omg congratulations to us! Finally natapos na din ang senior high school!" malakas na tili ni Anastasia habang malawak na nakangiti.

[ "Congratulations sa inyo!" ] it was Iraia through Amaris's ipad.

She's on a video call with us.

"Sayang wala ka dito. May after party daw sa condo ni Athalia." malungkot na saad ni Anastasia bago inilapit ang mukha sa screen.

Rinig ko ang bahagyang pagtawa ni Iraia sa kabilang linya. [ "Its okay. You can celebrate without me. Send me pictures okay?" ]

[ "How about, ahmm who was that again? Ah right, Amaris! Sasama siya sa inyo?" ] innocenteng aniya habang nakangiti.

I saw how Anastasia glanced at me for a moment and smiled back to Iraia. "Oo naman!" sagot nito.

Iraia is still under recovery with her amnesia so she doesn't remember us quite yet. Alam niya lang na magkakaibigan kami at tungkol sa mga maliliit na bagay tulad ng birthday namin, kung kailan kami nagsimulang maging magkaibigan, tungkol sa highschool life namin at iba pa.

Her father informed us that we can't pressure her to remember everything, it might trigger her more na maging dahilan ng kanyang matagal na paggaling.

We can't risk it yet.

Anastasia, Amaris and I also agreed that we can't tell her about Dux yet.

Its for the best.

"Amaris." I called her attention when I noticed her thoughts drifting away.

"Huh?" gulat niya akong nilingon.

Bumuntong hininga ako at nilapitan siya. "Don't worry, andito kami para sa'yo. You and the baby will be alright. Pangako iyan." I gently held her hand and caressed it.

She smiled. "Thank you, Athalia."

"Uh, the call ended. May session sila mamaya kaya pinatay iyong tawag." malungkot na saad ni Anastasia.

"I missed her," naiiyak na sabi naman ni Amaris.

"We all do," sagot ni Anastasia.

I sighed deeply when out of nowhere, Amaris's brother slash Anastasia's boyfriend suddenly popped out of nowhere.

Ano ba iyan. Kabute lang?

"Congratulations love!!"

Kadiri.

"Gosh, tara na Athalia, I can feel Iraia na. Ansakit sa mata, omg," rinig ko na reklamo ni Amaris bago kami nagsimulang maglakad paalis.

"Anyways where is tita, Athalia?" nagtatakang tanong ni Amaris.

She was referring about my mother.

"She can't attend. Nilalagnat si mama kaya hindi siya makakapunta. Its okay, dadating naman si ama." giit ko.

"Oh, speaking of father. He is walking this way na. Enjoy your time with him okay? I'll text you later nalang kapag pupunta na kami ni Anastasia." saad ni Amaris.

"Okay. Don't drink, okay? Bawal 'yan sayo." paalala ko na parang ina..

"Yups! Don't worry, I'll keep that in mind. Thank you, Athalia." she said sincerely.

"Amaris!" it was her mother who called that caught both of our attention. Nilingon namin ang pinanggalingan nito at nakita ang kanyang ina na kumakaway sa kanya kasama ang pamilya nila.
