CHAPTER 39

Chapter 39

Alyssa went home to her mother's house. Ayaw niya sa bahay dahil ayaw niyang magkita sila ni Den. Wala siyang ibang ginawa kundi magmukmok lang sa kwarto niya. Iiyak siya, makakatulog at iiyak ulit. 

"Ma'am Alyssa"

Someone is knocking on her door "Bakit po?"

"Andito po ang magulang ni Timmy. Gusto daw ho kayong maka usap"

She felt nothing about it. Siguro alam na nila ang nangyari sa kanila ni Dennise "Sige po"

Hindi na siya nag abala pang mag ayos. Bakit? Kailangan ba presentable siya sa harap ng dalawang taong kasama sa sumisira sa buhay niya? Pagkababa niya, sinalubong kaagad siya ng mommy ni Timmy 

"Look at you iha, you look terrible."

Hinimas pa nito ang pisngi niya. Nilagpasan niya ito "What do you want?"

"Alyssa, the wedding is still on. We are here to bring your gown. Here it is" 

She saw a white rectangular box. Nilapitan niya ito. She opened it. Walang emosyon tanging sakit lang. Den reject her, Den denied her, Den hurt her. She has a lot of reasons to continue the wedding, but a million of reasons cant beat the one reason why she is still breathing, that is she loves Den.

"This?" 

Kinuha niya ang gown mula sa kahon. She looked at it. Then she reached for a scissors, then she started cutting it, iniisip niya na yoon ang puso niya. 

"Oh my god Alyssa!  What are you doing?"

Puso niya na ayaw tigilan mahalin ang taong paulit ulit na nananakit sa kaniya, ayaw tumigil na umasa na baka babalikan pa siya. 

"You stop it Alyssa!"

Tim's dad get the gown away from her. Ang mga luha niya ay pumapatak na para bang hindi na nauubos.

"I will never marry your son!"

"Your mom signed the papers!"

She smirked and get the envelope above the table. Ngayon niya lang nalaman na nasa mommy niya pala ang copies ng mga ito. She found it at her mom's office. Nilabas niya ang mga papel sa envelope.

"What are you doing Alyssa?" Tim's mom ask nervously

"Eto ba?" she raised the papers "Ito ba ang sinasabi niyo na pinirmahan ng mommy ko?"

She slowly cut them out. Which left Tim's parents dumbfounded "Now you dont have any proof. You may go"

Umakyat siya at pumasok sa kwarto niya. She cried at the corner of her room. Bakit ba napaka unfair ng buhay sa kaniya? Bakit parang hindi sapat yung sobrang pagmamahal niya kay Den para siya naman ang piliin nito? Ano ba ang kulang sa kaniya? 

She stiffened when she saw a book, a book that she kept when Den arrived. A book that she made, a book that she wrote.

Their scrapbook

She slowly stood up and get their scrapbook. Nanginginig siyang kinuha ito. She opened it and her and Den's first picture welcomed her. Mag bestfriend pa lang sila noon.

From the day you stepped in our house's door, you caught the hell out of me. But your eyes, your eyes that like an ocean, that eyes that speaks your emotion. That eyes that made me fell inlove with you. They say, you should not fall inlove with the face cause it will fade away as the time past by. Instead, fall inlove with the eyes because what ever happens, eyes will be the same as what you see when you fall inlove. Well I think I really did fell inlove with your eyes, really really deep. I love you Densie.
