Now and Forever (Ricci Rivero Fanfiction)

Chapter 6

RICCI's 💚🏹

"Ricci. Okay ka lang ba talaga dito?" Tanong sa akin ni Ate Cha.

"Opo naman ate. Hahatiran narin po ako nila Ahia ng food."

"Pinapatawag kasi kami ni Coach Ramil. We'll be back ASAP."

"Sure ate. Take your time po." And then they went ahead.

I checked the time. It's 10pm na pala. Finally. This day that felt like forever will end parin pala. I reached out her hand and grabbed a seat.

"What are the chances, ano? I thought after natin makauwi dito sa Pinas, I'll never see you again. I tried looking for you, pero nasa L.A. ka daw or minsan sa Perth yung sinasabi nila." Inayos ko yung strand ng hair niya na nacover yung mukha niya. "You still look the same. You still act like the same. You're still you. And this time, I'll never let this slip away." Makakatulog na sana ako sa tabi niya when the doorbell rang. Baka sina Ahia na to so I stood up and opened the door kahit sobrang nakakatamad.

"Hey bro. Anyare?" Bati sakin ni Ahia with a hug.

"Ahia, Dihia." I hugged Dihia too. "Brent, bro."

When they gave me my food, I started to tell them what happened.

"Wow bro. That's good you got your shit together."

"I was a mess."
