So CLOSE But Still So FAR

Chapter 22:The shocking Truth

[Third person POV]

Wednesday,

Yesterday was boring for Gred.Her brothers forced her to stay in bed.And she did.

Today, is her father's Death anniversary.

And she is planning on not going to school.Her real dad. The dad she thought, she was the reason why he died.

She was all alone in going to the location of her father's lapida.

Malayo kasi para sa kanya ang pinaglibingan ng Papa niya.

May dala siyang Bulaklak at kandila.

When she arrived, she looked at the tomb.No flowers or candles.

We're was his step family now.Ba't hindi nila Binisita yung daddy niya sa death anniversary nito.

She was sitting in front of the tomb.

Ngumiti siya habang inilalagay niya ang mga Bulaklak sa lapida at nagsindi ng kandila.Her father, her real father is one of the few people who actually did spoil her.

"Hey Papa, long time no visit Na pala yung anak mo no?Sorry po! Busy lang sa school.Last Monday, I went to moms tomb and saw that kuya placed a set of tulips there. I thought mauuna sila o siya dito.But I guess,I was wrong." Mahabang litanya niya habang hinihimas ang lapida Na nakalagay ang pangalan ng Papa niya.

"My life has been great this past year.Yun nga lang, hindi ko alam Na may nagiging kaaway Na ako,subconsciously nga lang." Sabi niya pa.

Palagi niyang ginagawa ang magkwento sa papa niya kapag bumibisita siya.

"Pa,sorry! Kasalanan ko kung bakit wala ka na ngayon.I'm sorry!" Sabi niya and tears were slowly falling from her eyes.

"I should have known Na may consequences yung actions ko noon.Sorry!" Dagdag niya pa.

May anino siyang nakita sa tabi niya.She looked up and saw a man, smiling down at her.

"It wasn't your fault.You were just a kid.I'm sorry for leaving you." Sabi ng Lalaki.

"I thought Na mas mauuna ka PA sa akin ngayon, yun pala, nauna pa ako sayo.Noh kuya?" She asked as she smiled widely with tears on her eyes.

"Don't cry,I'm here." Sabi ng kuya niya at niyakap siya.

[Relle's Pov]

Thursday,

Kakapasok lang ni Gred para sa week Na ito at wala siyang alam kung may assignments ba kami.

Agad niyang tinanong sina Axel at Rhette.

Teka nga! Diba kami ang friends dito?What is with her by the way?

Ang sama ng tingin sa kanya nina Mocha.

Mocha looked like she wants to kill somebody. Habang tinitingnan ko sila, I can feel Gred has the hots for Rhette but paano Na si Axel?

What would happen to Axel.

Kasalukuyang nag-uusap si Ronnie at Berry.

Ewan ko sa dalawang ito.All I know is that pwedeng maging sila.At kawawa kaming mga nakakatanda pa sa kanya, naunahan pa kami.

I am currently talking to Nette.I was after all, teasing her about Stanley.

In denial pa ang babaita.Akala siguro niya eh hindi ko nakikita yung way ng pag gaze ni Kay Stan. Kontra sa look Na ibinibigay niya kina Timmy at Vin, mas affectionate ito.

The only problem is, she is so Indenial. Hindi niya maamin sa sarili niya Na gusto niya si Stanley.

Hindi ko nga alam eh kung bakit nagseselos pa siya habang lumalapit si Yssa,o di kaya ay si Mocha o si Mandy.Alam naman niya Na hindi papatulan ni Stanley ang kahit sino man sa kanila.
