Love Wins

Chapter 22: Coming Back

Ilang araw na ang lumipas simula ng mangyari ang di inaasahang halikan ni Althea

Pilit niyang kinakalimutan ang lahat ng mga nangyari subalit kusa pa rin itong bumabalik sa kanyang isipan

Kathleen on the other side,kept on texting,calling and following Althea kahit na ilang beses ng sinabihan ni Althea si Kathleen na yung sa kanila is already over

Puso niyang minsa'y naging sayo,
Ngayo'y pakawalan na at hayaan mo,
Noon at ngayo'y magka-iba,
Dahil ang bago'y,yon, ang minamahal niya

ALTHEA'S ROOM:

Music starts.....

~ There were nights when the wind was so cold
That my body froze in bed
If I just listened to it
Right outside the window~

Mga ala-ala ay kusang bumabalik,tamis ng pag-iibigan ng kahapo'y kumukurot sa puso

Mga araw na ang lumipas subalit nananatili paring naguguluhan ang puso't isip ni Althea

~ There were days when the sun was so cruel
That all the tears turned to dust
And I just knew my eyes were
Drying up forever (forever)~

Althea: Bakit ba ganito?(She asked herself) Why is it coming back now? Jade,I'm so sorry (Sabi nito at kanyang mga luha ay umagos)

~ I finished crying in the instant that you left
And I can't remember where or when or how
And I banished every memory you and I had ever made~

Mga luha'y patuloy na dumadaloy,nakahiga at yakap-yakap ang kanyang mga paa

FLASHBACK:

Kathleen: Babe,paano kaya tayo sa future? (She asked while staring at Althea)

Althea starts brushing Kathleen's hair using her hands

Althea: Happiness is a choice (She started),so I'll be there in our future with you kasi your my happiness. At gusto kong maka sama ka sa araw na yon

Kathleen: Salamat Althea. And I'll be waiting for that day to happen

END OF FLASHBACK.

BACK TO: ALTHEA'S ROOM

~But when you touch me like this
And when you hold me like that
I just have to admit
That it's all coming back to me
When I touch you like this
When I hold you like that
It's so hard to believe but
It's all coming back to me
(It's all coming back, it's all coming back to me now)~

Althea: Hindi to pwede! Hinde! (Sigaw nito at kanyang pinagsusuntok ang unan) It's all over! Why is it coming back now! (Patuloy nito)

SALA:

Kasalukuyang nagbabasa ang ina ni Althea ng marinig ang kanyang anak na sumisigaw

Dali-dali nitong binitawan ang kanyang binabasa at agad na pinuntahan ang anak

BACK TO: ALTHEA'S ROOM

Marahang binuksan ni Mama C ang pinto at agad na linapitan ang anak at kanyang yinakap

Pati na rin siya'y umaagos ang luha

Mama C: Shhh...anak..(Sinubukan nitong patahanin ang anak)

Althea: Ma... I love Jade very much,ayokong mawala siya (She said while still crying)

Mama C: Shhh... Ano ba ang nangyari?

Althea: She came back ma..

Muling yinakap ni Mama C si Althea matapos na marinig ang sagot ng anak

Mama C: Althea,listen to me..Be with someone you want to be with. Happiness is a choice. No matter who you choose the important thing is that your happy but no matter what you do,never run back to what you have broken. (payo nito sa anak)
