CHAPTER 4: MEETING

Damn this life! May mas gaganda pa ba sa buhay ko? Bakit ako pinaparusahan ng ganito? Sobrang sama ko na ba? All I want is to be happy. Punyeta talaga!  Galit kong usal sabay hampas ng manibela ko. 

Brrt. Brrt. Brrt.

I open the message that Clarisse sent. Hinanap na siguro ako neto.

Clarisse: Girl! Where are you?

Me: I'm on my way na!

Clarisse: Alright!

Then I speed up. I'm gonna party all night, get drunk and find a man whom I can be with this night. Yung lalaking dadalhin ako sa heaven. 

*Meanwhile at the Mondragon residence.*

-Daise POV-

Hi! I'm Daise Samantha Mondragon, Ashley's older sister. And hindi kaila sa akin na may galit sa akin ang aking lil sis. I don't care if she hates me because I love her. Alam ko namang nagkakaganito lang siya dahil malungkot at sobra siyang nasaktan nung iniwan siya ni Nathan. Nathan was everything to her. He's the love of her life. And now that Nathan's back, I hope that everything's gonna be alright. Even if matagal ang process I still hope na she'll be back to her old self. The cheerful,loving and sweet Ashley that we know. We miss the old Ashley. Me,Mom, Dad and everyone.

Beep. Beep. Beep.

A guest? At this hour?  I ask mom and I saw Dad smiling.

They're here! Mom said gleefully.

Who?

Nathan and his mom.

Napailing nalang ako sa sinabi ni Mommy. Good thing Ashley's not here. Mom just smile at my reaction and sinalubong na namin ang bagong dating. Nag beso-beso at inaya na ni mom and dad ang mommy ni Nathan sa dining hall. Susunod na sana ako ng.

Ate, where's she?

The guy ask me. Tinignan ko siya at inaninag mabuti ang mukha niya. Ang laki ng pagbabago sa mukha niya. MAs naging mature at gumwapo pa siya sobra. Lumaki din ang katawan niya halatang alaga ng gym.

Clubbing. 

Since when?

Since you left her. 

Napakunot noo siya and he nodded. 

I'll go get her!  Then he left. Sinundan ko lang siya ng tingin at napatawa ako bigla.

What's wrong honey?

Hindi ko namalayan na nasa tabi ko na pala si Mommy.
