dedicated to Marianne Ho Galenzoga. nagwawatty na din kasi siya e. Hi anetch! this chapter is for youu! pagpo promote lang ang peg. :DD haha!

Xander's POV

I miss this place a lot. I mean A LOT! not just this place but also those people here. It turned out that she became a lot tougher and hates me so bad. I don't know what happened to her after 5 years. It's so dramatic I know. but I do understand her. I'm really the bad person here. I shouldn't have left her. She needed me, and before I knew it, she already loved me. At first I didn't believe my sister. We've been so close and all I know is that she was comfortable having me because she thinks I'm her brother. But that changed when I saw her on a video clip and crying in pain. I was such a jerk. I don't know how to apologize to her. She must have been into hurt several times.

So now I'm back, and I think for good,I want to make her feel okay. I want her to feel that I'm still the Xander she loved before. I want our friendship back, even if its the last thing I'll do. 

I'm always at the bakeshop. I want to impress her. Every little thought counts. She has been pushing me away since day one. But that's not a reason to give up right? 

"hi Jess, hi Jen" I told them with coffee on my hands.

"haay, andito na naman. When will he stop sis?"

"I don't know either. just let him sis. Dun siya masaya e."

"Oo, masaya siya. Masaya siyang asarin ako. Ganyan naman siya noon pa lang, di na nagbago. Hoy Xander di nako bata kaya di mo nako madadaan sa ganyan. Kung dati nadadaan ako sa ice cream, ngayon kahit kape pa yan di mo nako masusuyo no."

There she goes again. Everytime she sees me, she always complain and drag those memories from the past to the future. 

"Hey, that's not my intention here. I just want you to know that all I want was a good morning for both of you since you're both busy. Well, if you really don't want me here then fine. take the coffee and I'll just stay at the house."

Actually, I'm not mad. its just that I can get a move. And it sucks. ugh.

"aAww, touch naman ako kay kuya. sis, wag ka naman ganyan. Can't you be a little bit nicer to him? nagmamalasakit lang naman siya no."

Very good Jessie. I like this. ^____^

"Haay. fine fine. Thanks for the coffee. Pasok nako sa office."

And with that, she walked away with her coffee and locked the door. What's with her? napakataray e. 

"Kuya, sorry for that ha. Feeling ko di ka pa din napapatawad ni Jen e. Well... makakabawi ka din. Mamaya malamig na ulo nyan, promise."

"It's okay. So can I help here? boring sa bahay e. Don't want to do business anymore. Sakit na sa ulo. kaya pa naman ako pumunta dito para magvacation.Kaso si dad may toyo"

"Oh, e vacation pala e.There's no vacation here. Puro work din kami dito e. uhmm... ah! ganto na lang. May mga deliveries kasi mamaya. ikaw na lang magdeliver para may magawa ka. Okay lang ba?

"Oh sure. That sounds fun. Sige gusto ko yan."

After that, pumunta na ko sa office ni Jess at nagsoundtrip na lang muna. Need energy later. zzzzzz....

Jen's POV

Bakit ba laging nandito yun? Nakakaasar na e. Ayoko na talaga siyang makita. Ang masaklap pa, lagi na lang siya nandito and it freaks me out!. As much as possible gusto ko siyang iwasan, pero eto namang sutil kong bestfriend pilit siyang nilalapit saken.
