Fate Or Mistake? ✿ darren espanto

xxxv. will she say yes?

"Kumusta naman ang life mo ngayon, Marielle," Evangeline asked expressionless. Is this a miracle? Bakit siya naging nice sa akin?

"Mabuti naman, famous parin, ikaw?" I smirked, walking confidently, causing her to scowl.

"Mabuti din, glamorous kasi nakatira ako sa isang famous at rich na resort," she devilishly grinned, a glint of trouble in her eyes.

"Ah, oo nga pala, 'Roosevelt!' How foolish of me not to recognise, I forgot how desperate you are, clinging on to your Daddy for support and, as you say, 'glamour,'" I raise my eyebrows, my smirk widening as her grin vanishes and the glint in her eyes more emphasised.

"Ha, oo nga pala, ikaw parin and low life na tao na kailangan nang attention para ma buhay, diba?" She snaps, as I laugh in amusement.

"Haha, oh, Evangeline, hindi ka parin nagbabago. You still don't get my petty jokes! Past aside, diba!" I fake giggle, as I embrace her.

"I'm just playing, you know? Haha, I missed you!" She enthusiastically remarks, air kissing me, her tongue running out of English words, "and Darren," she mutters, but just the volume for me to hear.

"He's here, you know, and JK. Did you miss him?" I smile, my eyes glistening with mischief.

"I missed Darren, that's all, and I know he misses me," she fakes a smile, opening her eyes even more to seem innocent, causing me to roll my eyes in my head.

"Well, hope you have your fun in this resort!" I air kiss her again, "While you can," I murmur, placing a thin piece of paper in her cheap garage sale 'gown,' flicking my hair and sashaying away with Darren.

JK

After the shakes, we decided to hit the sack for the night. We entered the building the through the lounge chair area, however, being the guy who appreciates every single detail of something, I went around with my camera to take pictures on the architecture of the building, in all its glory, capturing them near the sea. Afterwards, I enter the premises, noticing everyone had left. Except a familiar face.

Curled long black hair. A seemingly expensive gown.

Evangeline?

It couldn't. Or, could it? Immediately I ran towards the girl, turning her towards me. I couldn't believe it. After all these months, dito pala siya napunta. After all the effort I put into finding her.

Fury ran through my veins, my cooking blood. How dare she? I missed her so much! Ano ba ang iniisip niya para mapunta as malayo? Ano, para ma disappear ako da buhay niya? Ano ba and problema niya seven months ago?

She turned away before I could form words from my tounge, "Angel," I whimper as her face gets closer to mine, "Ano ba ang nangyari sa yo? Bakit nandito ka sa Boracay?" I question with a quizzical look on my face.

"Huwag muna n-ngayon, JK—"

"Anong huwag muna? I've been waiting for seven months, Angel! At hinanap kita when you were gone! What happened to our friendship, ha? Is there something wrong with me?" I shout, gaining puzzled and startled faces from the crowd.

"Wala—"

"Wala? WALA BA TALAGA ANGEL!!" I exclaim, feeling a pang of sorrow hit me as a tear escaped my eye. Why am I feeling this way? "THEN WHY DID YOU LEAVE?"
