Epilogue

"Woah! Look whose back!!!"

Elaine stand on her seat and hugged me the moment I reached the table.

I smiled widely and shrugged my shoulder. "What to do?" I boastfully said.

"What a bitch!" Aliah chuckled and bumped my shoulder. "Damn! She still smelled like p@ssy!"

Nagtawanan naman sina Ritu at Jackie. Habang napapailing si Elaine. I sat beside her and raised my brow at Aliah. "Can't help it!"

"Looks like you had fun huh?" Ritu smirked.

"More than fun!" Napatikhim ako at ngumiti ng malapad. "Well, to be honest ayoko pa ngang umuwi! The place was superb! We will definitely go back there!"

I just came back from my honeymoon trip with Charm. So far, the experienced is one for the books. Not only because of the place but most especially because of the person with me.

I could never be thankful enough after that night na nagkaayos kami ni Charm.

"Why you didn't talk to me after Nimfa confessed to you about what she did?"

We were sitting on the bed right next to each other inside her room. I kissed her on the head and held her tight. "Actually it was the plan. The moment Nimfa told me everything, I wanted to run to you and confront Jin." I sighed as I remembered Nimfa's face. It was full of sadness and regret. "But she told me that she'll talk to you and maybe its about time that you'd do something about our relationship."

Napatingala sa akin si Charm habang nakakunot ang noo. "What did she means by that?!"

"Bigyan ko naman daw ng konting pride ang sarili ko at huwag naman daw parati na ako iyong humahabol sa'yo. Napatunayan ko na raw sa'yo ng maraming beses kung gaano kita kamahal. She even said that maybe its about time that you prove to me how much you love me."  Piningot ko ang ilong nya dahil sa biglang pagbabago ng ekspresyon ng kanyang mukha. "Don't get me wrong, Charm. I didn't talk to you right away cause I know you'd feel bad and guilty at the same time. I don't care what Nimfa said or what other people will think, I only care of what you'd feel." Huminga ako ng malalim saka tipid na ngumiti. "So I'd thought to give you time to think."

"A-Alexa, I-I'm r-really sor--"

"Sssshhh..." I stopped her from talking. I held her chin for her to look me in the eye. "I love you so much, Charm. And I don't want you to feel guilty or to feel sorry for what happened. You were just also a victim of the situation."

"Aren't you mad at Jin? Or at Nimfa? Or even at me for not giving you the chance to explain."

Tipid akong ngumiti. "At first gustong gusto kong magwala! At that same moment that I knew the truth, I even wanted to face Jin!" But then I remembered Dyosa. How she made me realize certain things. "Pero bigla akong nahiya sa sarili ko, Charm. Who am I to confront Jin for whatever she did? Nagkataon lang na iisang babae ang minahal namin, pero dapat ko bang kwestyunin ang kaya nyang gawin para sa babaeng mahal nya? Who knows if I where in her shoe? Would I do the same thing?"

"Alexa..."

"That's why, I didn't do anything and just waited. Sinabi ko sa sarili kong I already did my part to prove to you how I really feel. So maybe its about time for me to trust what you truly  feel, Charm." Nagkibit balikat ako saka ngumiti. "And look where am I right now?" Hinawi ko ang ilang hibla ng kanyang buhok na tumatabing sa maganda nyang mukha. Oh, I love her. I love Charm so much. Unti unti kong inilapit ang aking mukha sa kanyang mukha. "I am in the right place with the same person, Mahal ko. And that's all that matters." I whispered and closed the gap between us. I kissed her deeply.
