Chapter 39

Together Again

Yuan’s POV

“You two.. is not yet… divorce.” I looked at Althea. She looks shocked too. I guess ngayon lang din niya nalaman to.

“What’s happening here?”

“Yuan, anak. The reason why Althea left 3 years ago is because of her heart failure.”

“What?”

“Ang buong akala namin noon, she can’t survive. The doctor said that it was like a miracle that she survive. She left you because she wants you to forget her kung nawala siya noon.” I looked at her but she just looked at the floor.

“I know it’s not easy to forgive her. She knows that-“

“Wait, you leave beacsue of that petty reason?”

“Petty?” She looks at me.

“Yes. Hindi mo alam kung anong ginawa mo. Para mo na din akong pinatay ng umalis ka. At dahil lang sa akala mong mamatay ka, iniwan mo ko? Pero ngayon, buhay ka!”

“Yuan! I know that. And I regret that.  You don’t know what I have to do para lang iwan ka. Nasaktan din ako. It’s the first time in my life that I regret. I regeret that the moment I wake up, it’s too late because you have Sage.”

“You knew I don’t love her.”

“I don’t want to hurt my sister.”

“Hmm, so you want to be a saint? You want to protect others. You want to give up things that can give you happiness?”

“I’m sorry.”

“Sorry?”

“Tama na Yuan. Hindi pwedeng sobrang mapagod si Althea.”

“She has artificial heart now.”

Althea’s POV

Yuan and I are still married. But- paanong?”

“Mommy what’s happening?”

“I know this time would come. That Yuan will know about this. Remember, you are my child. You said all you want is to be happy and I know Yuan is your happiness. I didn’t have the opportunity to protect you. Give things that you want. And It’s my fault kaya ka nagkasakit… kaya di ko prinocess ang divorce papers niyo.”

“Mommy!”

“I’m sorry anak.”

“There’s more.” Tumingin ako kay Mamcy. “It’s time to tell us about Nadine.”

“What else? Is there more?” Tanong ni Yuan. I need to come up with something.

“Na-Nadine is.. Nadine is a Saavedra.” Then I walked out of the room.

Pero alam kong sisusundan ako ni Yuan. Maya maya may hummatak sa kamay ko.

“Where are you going? Were going home now.”

“What? Nadine needs me.”

“Nadine or Cole.”

“Please Yuan, she’s my-“

“Daughter I know, but you are Althea Louise Alleje. I’m going to adopt her.”

“No!”

“She will be.”

“She’s a Saavedra!!”

“Okay if that’s what you want. Itigil na muna natin to. Umuwi na tayo.”

“Ano?”

“Uuwi na tayo sa bahay.”

“Tama let’s go na mga apo.” Bigla kaming napatingin ni Yuan sa likod and there we saw Mamcy. “Sa unyo muna ko titira. Ahh, pati nga pala ang lola mo Althea. Let’s go na at pagod na ko.” Hinila niya din ako. Nakatingin lang sa amin sila Yuan.

At the House..

“So this is what your house like. Yuan saan ang kwarto ko.”

“Manang pakihatid na lang siya sa guest room.”

“Bye have a good night.” Then nakatinginan kami ni Yuan. Pero umiwas lang kami ng tingin,

“Yuan. I need to back to the hospital.”

“Why because of Cole?”

“Yuan, pwede bang wag na natin tong pag awayan. Nadine needs me.”

“Kung ganun, halika na.”

“Huh?”

“Sasama ako,”

“Yuan..”

“Tandaan mo you’re my wife.” Lumapit siya sa akin ng napakalapit, but still there was no emotion in his eyes but somewhat parang naging mas okay na.

“OKAY!! Hindi na ko aalis.”

“Good.” Then tumalikod na. “Matulog na tayo.”

“Saan ako matutulog?”

“Sa kwarto natin.” Sabi niya habang patuloy pa rin sa paglalakad.

“What?” Then tuluyan na siya pumasok sa kwarto.

“Aish,,, anong gagawin ko ngayon.” Nagpunta na lang muna ako sa garden. Wala man lang nagbago. Naupo muna ko sa may duyan. Then I dialed Cole.

“Hello! Bakit di ka na bumalik?”

“Oops, don’t shout.” Tatawa tawa kong sabi.

“Are you okay?” Seryoso niyang sabi. I guess I need to be serious too.

“Yuan and I, were not yet divorce.” Bigla na lang tumahimik. “Cole?”

“I’m here.”

“What should I do?”

“Tell him everything.”

“He knows everything.”

“Including Nadine?”

“Not yet.”

“He doesn’t know everything yet.”

“Did you find her?”

“…Yes and she’s with Brian. Hindi niya kami maalala. Including Nadine.”

“What? Brian?”

“Yes, Her brother. Kinausap ko siya pero ayaw niyang makita ko si Nancy.”

“I will talk to him.”

“No, you knew what he wants.”

“Wala akong pakiaalam, As long as I can save Nadine,”

“No.”

“Where is Brian?”

“If you insist. I will tell Yuan everything,”

“I don’t care. May balak na din ako na sabihin sa kanya yon.”

“Louise! Hindi mo anak si Nadine.”
