I'M YOURS, YOU'RE MINE (Book 3)

Epilogue

Epilogue.

Odette’s POV:

5:18PM; Spain

Iniwan ko si Yaya Elis sa taxi. Yes, she came with me.

Lumabas na ‘ko sa taxi, at tumakbo papunta sa simbahan.

Narinig ko yung kampana.

Maybe… just maybe, the ceremony has started already.

I am not the kind of girl

Who should be rudely barging in

On a white veil occasion

Naka-bukas ang pinto ng simbahan.

Saktong nakita ko,

But you are not the kind of boy

Who should be marrying the wrong girl

Nagtago ako sa gilid ng pinto.

Totoo na… ikakasal na sya.

Aaminin ko, umasa akong hindi nya din ‘to itutuloy.

But I was wrong.

Maybe he doesn’t really love me anymore.

This is

Surely not what you thought it would be

I lose myself in a daydream

Where I stand and say

Vince, please?

Don’t say yes, let’s run away now. I’ll meet you here out of the church at the back door.

Don’t speak a single vow. You need to hear me out—

And they said speak now

Hindi ko alam kung masaya sya sa oras na ‘to or what. Wala akong idea. Hindi ko makita yung mukha nya.

Hindi ko makita yung mata nya. Hindi ko masabi kung gusto ba nya ‘to.

Gusto kong malaman.

Is he doing this because he loves her?

Or is he just doing this to forget me?

“Hindi kaya… natutunan nya na talagang mahalin si Chellu?”

“Or worse, baka napalitan na talaga ni Chellu ang isang Maria Odette sa puso nya?”

“Either mabawi mo sya, or makita mong makuha sya ng iba.”

“I love her, so much. She’s the only person I would want to meet in the altar.”

Stupid Odette.

Ano bang ginagawa mo dito?

Malinaw naman na hindi ka na nya mahal.

Eto sya, nagawang ituloy ang kasal nya.

Ibig sabihin, mahal nya si Chellu.

Kasi kung katulad mo syang hindi mahal ang pakakasalan, malamang umalis na din ‘yan.

But no. Ayan sya, nakaharap sa altar, katabi ang ibang babae.

“Odette…” Naramdaman ko ang hagod ni Yaya Elis sa likod ko.

Bigla nalang akong nag-breakdown. Napaupo ako at naiyak.

Ang sakit!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mas mabuti pang mamatay nalang ako. Kesa ganito.
