Her Happy Ever After

Chapter 14

"I think you need to answer your phone. Maybe it's important."

Natawa siya Ng napakamot ito sa ulo. "I'll be quick."

"Uel, si Odessa..." Umiiyak a Sabi Ng mama ni Odessa.

Bigla siyang kinabawan sa sinabi nito. Why what happened to her?"

"She commit suicide, drug overdose."

"Naisugod agad namin siya sa hospital, kayo ng magising siya ay naghisteriya siya, hinahanap ka niya. The doctors need to sedate her, now she's sleeping. May baby needs you right now. Save her." Pagmamakaawa nito.

This is all my fault. Sisi niya sarili. If anything happens to her, hindi niya mapapatawad ang sarili. "I'm on my way, tita. Call me , kung may mabago sa condition niya , just tell Odessa I'm
coming."

Why this things need to happen.

"Kate, there an emergency, Odessa tried to commit suicide, drug overdosed."

"I understand Uel, go she needed you right now."

"I'll take you home first."

"No, mag taxi na lang ako, you go ahead. Alam kong nagaalala ka sa kalagayan niya. It's written all over your face."

"I'm so-"

"Thank you for this wonderful night. I won't forget it."

"Why are telling this, as if your telling me goodbye." Buti na Lang may dumaan na taxi. Mabilis niyamg pimara iyon.

She smile at him sadly. "Goodbye uel."
"Call me pag nasa apartment ka na."

Nang makalayo na ang sinasakyan niyang taxi ay saka Lang niya pinakawalan ang mga luhang kanina pa niya pinipigilan. At sakto namang pinatugtog sa radio iyong kanyang somewhere down the road. How ironic.
She need to get away, far away from him.

Bukas na siya uuwi sa quezon. Doon na niya aantayin ang tawag ng pinsan niya kung kelan ang alis niya. She will surely missed him. At least magaan na loob niya. She got the closure that she needed​. She's happy now knowing Uel did love her, maybe they were not meant to be. Kagaya linya Ng kantang pinapakingan niya. They have right love at the wrong time. Wala sa loob na napahawak siya sa kuwentas na regalo ni Uel. It will be constant reminder, that one upon a time, she met him. That everything that happened between them are real.
Pagdating niya sa apartment niya ay nanlulumo na inihiga niya ang kanyang katawan sa Kama niya. Pinatay Niya ang cellphone, she don't want to hear his voice dahil baka Hindi niya mapigilan ang kanyang emotion. Hindi niya mapigilang mag selos kay Odessa. Maybe Uel will have a change of heart dahil sa nangyari. Hindi maubos ang mga luha niya. Hindi niya namalayan na nakstulog na siya na Hindi nagpalakad Ng damit.

Samantalang sa hospital ay inaantay ni Uel na magkamalay si odessa. Ayon sa doctor, odessa she experiencing a mild depression. Na dapat maagapan agad bago lumala.

"Uel..." mahinang sambit nito Ng pangalan noya, siya agad ang unang hinanap nito.

"I'm here." He assure her habang hawak niya ang kamay nito she gently kissed them.

"Please don't leave me, I'll do anything para bumalik tayo sa dati, let's work things out. I can't live without you.." Umiiyak na damnit nito.

"Shhhh.. I'm not going anywhere, You scared me, Odessa. Don't ever do it again."

"Okay, I promised." Nakahinga siya nang maluwag.

"How are you feeling right now?"

"I'm fine, now that your here."

Malungkot niyang pinagmasdan ang apartment niya. Isinauli na niya sa land lady niya iyong Susi. Naimpake na niya lahat ang mga gamit niya. Dadaanan niya muna si Liz bago siya umuwi sa Quezon.

"Bruha ka, bakit hindi mo man Lang sinabi sa akin na mangingibang bansa ka pala."

"I need to to this Liz, please promise me na wala kang sasabihin kay Uel."

"Ano bang nangyari? Kala ko pa Naman na magkakaayos na kayong dalawa."

Ikinuwneto niya sa kaibigan ang nangyari kagabi. She smile sadly, at least I got my last wish, to be with him for the last time.

"Kaya mo Yan, I know your strong at Isa pa kung kayo talaga ni Uel ang para sa isat Isa, love will always find the way. As of now tama oang yang ginawang mong sacrifice. You have a good heart. Your deserve a good person. Ipaubaya mo na Lang Yan Kay God. "

Yumakap siya sa kaibigan. "I'm going to miss you, kayo ni Ellysse."

"I'll call her later."

Muli siya nitong niyakap. "Goodbye and take care of yourself."

"Bye Liz."

"Hey​ cousin, what are you doing to yourself. Nakikita mo ba ang sarili mo sa salamin. We're is the Uel I know."

He gave his Vince a weak smile. "What the heck are you doing here, your soffuse to be on your honeymoon right now?"

"We're living next week to Europe, I'm just checking you out, Tita Fely called me to talk to you man."

"I'm fine."

"Are you?"

"Common let's talk about it. Let's get out of here." Aya nito.

"I'm not in the mood to go out."

"You need fresh air."

"I'm not going anywhere without you."

"Okay fine."

"That's may man!"

Sa isang bar sa BCG Taguig siya dinala ni Vince. "So, you and Odessa are back again?"

Inisang lagok niya ang beer na hawak. "I have no choice pare, Odessa commit suicide. Drug overdose."

"What?"

"And I'm blaming myself sa nangyari sa kanya. Maybe I deserve this for being selfish. For not considering her feelings."

"It's not your fault Uel, nagmahal ka lang, and Odessa won't accept the fact that you already love someone else."

"I don't know how can I escaped from this mess, I'm hurting them both, I'm being unfair to Odessa and Kate for giving up on her. And I missed Kate so much. I felt like dying."

"Your really in a deep shit Uel. Even I don't want to be on shoes right now. And maipapayo ko lang, try
honesty."
