The Good Bitch

Epilogue

Leah's Point of View

"A little help here please, sweetie!" I heard my husband called from our bedroom.

I strode towards the room. "Whaat again?" I groaned.

"Can't tie my necktie." he says as he struggles to tie the black necktie around his neck.

"Oh, Clark!" I exclaimed, "When will you be able to do this by yourself?"

He smirked and shrugged, "Dunno. I have you to tie this piece of shit, why bother to learn?"

"Clark!" I whined, "What if I'll be gone?"

His face suddenly gets serious an his smirk fades away from his face. "Hey, you won't leave me, right?"

I fastened his tie and held his face. "I will never leave you, Clark." I comforted sincerely. "Why would I leave my reason of living? Maddison, Ethan, you..., you are my reasons in living this life. I would never leave you." I slowly descended unto him and gave him a peck on the lips. "I love you."

"I love you, too."

Maddison's Point of View

"Get off now." utos ng kambal kong si Ethan.

"Maghintay ka nga! Ang atat mo masyado!" sumbat ko saka padabog na bumaba sa kotse.

"I am not. I just hate slowpokes."

Hindi ko na siya pinansin at sinara ko nang malakas ang pinto. Bwisit talaga 'yun. Hindi makapaghintay. Palibhasa kasi, susunduin pa niya 'yung girlfriend niyang mafia princess, si Blaze Blake. Kakaiba pangalan niya 'nuh?

Naglakad na ako papasok sa university. Magkaiba kasi kami ng school ni Ethan. Ewan ko ba dun at ayaw niyang mag-aral sa school namin, ang Sanford University.

Biglang may umakbay sa akin. Agad akong tumingin sa taas at nakita ko ang mukha ng best friend ko.

"Hey." I greeted and smiled.

Tumingin siya sa akin at ngumiti, "Hey, Maddie. How's your life?"

"I'm good. How about–"

Napahinto ako nang mag-ring ang school bell.

"Holy crap. I think we need to hurry."

"I know–Kyaaa, Ashton!"

Napatili ako nang wala sa oras. Pano ba naman kasi? Binuhat lang naman niya ako!

"You can manage yourselves on your own, right?"

"No, Clark. I told you they should live with my brother."

"Yes, dad. We're old enough to live by ourselves."

"Ethan!"

"Mom, just trust in me. I'll take care of myself and that brat."

"Don't call Maddison brat."

"Yeah, sure. I mean, she doesn't listen to me."
