Twisted Game of Destiny

Warmth of A Hug

"Hindi mo ba napapansin? Madalas nga silang nagtatawanan ngayon. Like the old days." commented Vice and sat at the chair beside Dawn.

"If you could just see them sa set namin sa movie, kulang na lang talaga, hawakan na ni Aga 'yong kamay ni Lea. And I'm pretty sure, Lea would be willing to let Aga do that." and her friend Dawn, squealed.

Little did they know that Lea hears their conversation and she's just outside her Dressing Room and the door is slightly open.

"Kinikilig ako. Ano ba." singit ni Vina. Lea automatically smiled.

"Tingin niyo, may chance kaya?" asked Vice.

"Meron, may chance na sipain ko kayong tatlo." And Lea entered the room and her friends were shocked by her sudden entrance. "Did you guys know that it is not good to talk about someone while he's away?"

"Anong away? Nandiyan ka lang naman eh." pamimilosopo ni Vice which made Lea throw a pillow at him. "Aray ha."

"It's been couple of years, pero shipper pa rin kami ng loveteam ninyo." said Dawn.

"Uy, hindi ako. Lea-Rob fan ako eh. Hihi." answered Vice.

Lea just rolled her eyes at them, "Ewan ko talaga sa inyo."

"Pero, Lei, seryosong usapan, what's the real score?" asked Vina.

"Wala, ano ba. Okay lang kami. Let's leave it like that." she answered.

"Weh? With the word 'lang' talaga ha?" asked Dawn.

She didn't answer.

"Actually, may chika ako eh." Vina caught their attention. "Kala niyo, Lei ah? Kala niyo di ko nakitang kiniss ka ni Aga sa noo last time? Kala niyo lang."

Her mouth formed almost perfect circle with that. And Vice and Dawn screamed in joy.

"Oh my God! May ganong ganap?! Bakit hindi umabot sa akin 'yon, babaita?!" asked Vice and threw the pillow at her. Good thing, it didn't hit Lea.

She just remained silent. But her face turned crimson red.

"Ang umabot lang na balita sa akin eh, 'yong matagal na yakapan sa tapat ng tent ni Lea." added Dawn which made Lea's face turn into even redder one.

Before they could even speak more about Lea and Aga, she stepped out of the room and went inside her own DR.

Those are all true. I'm letting him enter my life again.

She turned into the mirror and asked herself, "Tama ba 'tong ginagawa ko?"

--

He was about to go to the cr when he thought of visiting Lea's tent first. It's been couple of days since they had the chance to talk. Bigla na lang naging cold si Lea. He could still remember that she almost mouthed I love you. Almost.

He didn't even bother to knock, she's used to that, he'd just barge inside her room and bug her. He opened the door. And in surprise, instead of seeing Lea, he saw a little girl who seemed to be familiar.

The girl looked at him and was shocked, "Superman?!"

"Oh! It's you, princess!"

He hugged the girl. And he didn't know what force made him hug the little girl long.

"Ooops! I can't breathe, superman." the girl said. He then pulled from the hug.

"What are you doing here?" he asked her.

"My mimi's here. She said she's working here and I asked her if I could join her. So she brought me here. How about you?" said the kid with her cute little voice.

He didn't know but he became nervous with that. Her mom's working here and this is Lea's tent... No... It couldn't be...

"Ah, I-I am also working here kasi." he answered.

The girl was about to speak when Lea entered and was shocked. "B-bea? A-aga?"

"Mimi!" the girl went near Lea and hugged her.

Aga just looked at her, and she couldn't even say a single word.

"Mimi, look! Superman who saved me is here! He said he's working here like you."

"Aga..."

"We need to talk, Lea." he said and stood up.

"You know each other, mimi? You know superman?"

"I'll be waiting outside." he went out and waited for Lea.

Lea on the other hand told her daughter to just behave inside her tent which the latter willingly did. She went out of the tent and saw Aga waiting for her. When he saw her, he walked heading to the rooftop. She just followed him.

"Is she your daughter?" he asked her.

She bit her lower lip and nodded. "Yeah."

"How old is she?"

"She's turning four this year."

Aga looked straight into her eyes, "Who's her father?"

"You don't even have to know that, Aga."

"Come on, just answer me, who's her father?" his voice was a bit louder this time.

And there were already tears streaming down her face. "So what if you are her father?!"

He was taken aback by that.

"Ano? You are going to ask me kung bakit ko hindi sinabi sa'yo? Kasi may pamilya ka na, Aga. Who am I to ruin your life again, ha? At pangalawa, kasi gago ka."

"You should've at least told me."

"Para saan pa? Para pagmukhain kong tanga 'yong sarili ko sa harap mo? Is that what you want? Para magmukha akong tanga? Oo, I am dam* stupid. Kasi hinayaan ko pang may mangyari sa ating dalawa. Bakit pa nga ba?" she wiped her tears away. "Now that you already know, mas mabuti pang alam mo lang. Huwag na huwag mong lalapitan ang anak ko."

He kneeled infront of Lea which made her look at him.

"Tanggap ko, Lei. Matagal na akong gago. Walang kwentang tao. Pero nagbago na ako. Nagbago na ako, Lea. Narealize ko na, kahit anong gawin ko, ikaw at ikaw pa rin ang gusto ko. Ikaw pa rin ang hinahanap ko. At ikaw pa rin ang kailangan ko. Ang plano ko lang, is to win you back. Ikaw lang. Pero nong nalaman kong anak ko rin siya, ito, nag-iba na ang plano ko. I am going to have you and our daughters back in my life. I'm going to do everything that I can just to have you back. Even if I have to face the reality that you have Rob. Wala namang mawawala kung susubukan ko, hindi ba? Pero sana, huwag mo siyang ipagdamot sa akin. Para mo nang awa."

She noticed that there were already tears coming from his eyes but he looked down.

She closed her eyes first and kneeled as well facing him.

He looked at her and she wiped his tears.

"Please..." he pleaded again.

"Why are you doing this to me Aga?"

And then she hugged her ex-husband tight.
