 ************************************************************

A month after that very emotional yet very romantic incident between Albert and Samantha, they are still pretending that nothing happened, that they could move on with their lives without thinking about each other.

One Friday night, Albert and his friend Peter spend their Friday-after-work-night at the resto-bar owned by Peter’s girlfriend. It is not a typical resto-bar because only prominent people usually go there. Rare wines and foods are usually served.

Albert and Peter were just drinking some wine and just chatting normally.

“So how’s the married life, Pare? How’s your life with Valeen?” Peter asked.

“Honestly, I really don’t know, Pare“ Albert replied as he took a sip of Antinori Solaia wine.

“Pero she’s a good catch Albert, ano pa bang hahanapin m okay Valeen? Don’t tell me di ka na aattract sa kanya..” Peter teased.

Now Albert realized that although he find Valeen attractive, his heart is still shouting for one name. Albert had a simple wedding with Valeen a week after he accidentally met Samantha at the cemetery. It was very difficult for Albert to made that decision because he really loves Cesca and he’s seeing her to Samantha, but Valeen help him out to make things easier for them.

Sorry if I caused you a trouble Albert, alam ko na naaawa ka lang sa aki, but I already accepted the truth. Alam ko din na sya pa din ang mahal mo hanggang ngayon, at hindi naman kita pipilitin na makalimutan mo sya. I just want to feel happy while I’m still breathing, you know.. And don’t worry, mabilis lang ang one year..

Albert realized what Valeen told him right after their wedding mass. He should not take her feelings for granted but he can’t move on with the past.

“Mabait si Valeen, she’s a perfect wife. Pero alam mo naman kung sino ang mahal ko..” Albert explained.

“Si Cesca na naman, you know what Pare, di ko man nakilala ‘yan si Cesca but I bet she’s a hell of a goddess.. Paano hindi mo makalimutan eh.. Mas maganda sya kay Valeen noh?” Peter said.

“She’s beautiful indeed, pero hindi lang naman ‘yun kundi buong pagkatao nya ang mahal ko.. Pero since you are my friend, I’m going to tell you this..” Albert finished his third glass of Antinori Solaia wine.

Peter listened carefully.

“Nagkita kami ni Cesca, one week before kami ikasal ni Valeen..” Albert said.

“But how? Akala ko ba wala na si Cesca???” Peter got confused.

“Yes, she’s already gone, but I saw her through Samantha, hindi ko alam paano nangyari pero talagang kamukhang kamukha nya si Cesca, iisa lang talaga ang mukha nila.” Albert explained.

“Wait Pare, sino naman si Samantha?” Peter asked curiously.

“I saw her after I first met Valeen, nakita ko sya sa mall. Unang kita ko pa lang sa kanya Pare, alam kong sya si Cesca, her fair skin, her hair, yeah it’s shorter now pero walang pinagbago, her eyes, yung pagka chinita nya, ganung ganun eh, and her lips, kahit dati simple lang sya, I admit, she’s prettier with her red lips.. and most especially, I know it’s her because of her kisses..” Albert cut his story.

“What do you mean by “her kisses”??? Don’t tell me…” Peter teased him.

“Yeah, it’s a long story how it happened the first time, pero yung sinasabi ko sa’yo kanina, ‘yung nakita ko sya bago ako magpakasal kay Valeen..” Albert finished another glass of wine.
