" whuhoooo! Kaya mo to Aeries Xandria. Kaya mo to. " Para kong tangang nakikipag usap sa sarili ko habang lulan ako ng elevator.

Paano ba namang hindi, eh ang lakas ng kaba sa dibdib ko. Hindi ko alam kung mapapatawad nya pa ko sa lahat ng mga masasakit na salitang nasabi ko sakanya. She's more than a best friend to me, she's a sister.

Tama... Papunta ko sa condo unit ni Nikka ngayon. I really missed her at hindi ko na kayang pairalin ang pride ko now that I know the truth.

Paglabas ko ng elevator dumerecho na ko sa pinto ng condo unit ni Nikka. Isang malalim na buntonghininga muna ang pinakawalan ko bago ko napagdesisyunang katukin ang pinto.

Kaso.....
Hindi pa man sumasayad ang kamao ko sa pinto ng unit ni Nikka ay bumukas na ito.

Saglit kaming nagkatitigan...

"Hi" - ako/Nikka

" What are you doing here? "

" I just wanted to say.... "

Sabay na salita naming dalawa.
Parehas kming natigilan.

" I missed you" ako/nikka.

Pareho kaming nabigla but then we smiled ang hugged each other.

" God sissy I really miss you." Nikka said without taking off her arms on me.

" Me too. I'm really sorry for all that I've said Nikka. I really am. "

Nikka hugged me tight again.

" It's all my fault. I'm really sorry Sissy. "

Bago pa man kami magkaiyakan minabuti na naming pumasok sa loob ng condo ni Nikka.

Naupo ako sa sofa habang siya naman ay nasa dining area at naghahanda ng mamemeryenda. As I look at her, I know she's very happy and excited so am I.

" Where were you going then if I didn't came here? " I asked.

" Actually to your house. I'm going to try again to talk to you since it's been two months when it happened. " naglakad siya papalapit sakin tsaka nilapag ang hawak na tray na my lamang pagkain bago umupos sa tabi ko at nagpatuloy. " I am hoping for another chance to let me explain myself. To tell you why I came up to that situation Xandy. "

Nakita ko ang paglamlam ng kanyang mga mata. She's near to crying again. I held her hand.

" I know the truth Nikka. " She looked with full of question in her eyes. " About the curse that you and Axel's grandfather unintentionally made. And I understand you, cause if I were be in your shoes I will also do the same thing. "

I saw Nikka's relief.

" Kung inalam ko lang din sana agad kung sino yung lalaking dapat ipakasal sakin, sana nasabi ko sayo at sana hindi kayo nagbreak ni Axel at di ka masasaktan. "

" Ganon din naman ang mangyayari. Maghihiwalay pa rin kami dahil ipauubaya ko siya for the sake of your lolo cause I know if that would happen to me you'll do the same thing. "

" Pero masasaktan ka pa rin. "

" Yes I would. But it is Axel's decision not to tell me."

" cause I told him not to. Though alam kong may karelasyon na yung lalaking nakaarrange para sakin I warned them not to tell anything dahil natatakot akong ipaglaban siya ng babae at hindi kami matuloy. Pwede kasing hindi siya maniwala which is ikaw pala."

" Yun yung pinupunto ko Nikka. If Axel told me the problem before baka sumama pa ko sa kanya sa Canada to find the truth and help him solve the problem without sacrificing our love. Or kung pagdating sa Canada at nalaman kong ikaw yun I still let him go for you. Hindi sana tayo humantong sa ganitong siywasyon at hindi tayo magkakagalit dahil sa maling akala.  "
