AC's POV

To: Isabel Beatriz
I got good news for you!

From: Isabel Beatriz
What is it?


To: Isabel Beatriz
They already allowed me to study in Ateneo!


From: Isabel Beatriz
OMG! I'm so happy for you! I'm literally smiling, I swear.


Mas lumawak ang ngiti ko because of her reply.

I am having my breakfast with my parents and I texted her the moment my dad cracked the good news.

"Oh hi, Bea! You're too early ah." Nagulat ako sa pagdating niya. She's still wearing her pjs and halatang namumungay pa ang mga mata.

She kissed my parents and greeted them good morning.

"Avery texted me the good news and uhmm I don't like the breakfast at home, eh." She's scratching her head while saying that.

Natawa nalang ang parents ko and mom asked our maid to give her plate and utensils. Pero si Beatriz may natitira pa atang kahihiyan when she volunteered na siya nalang ang kukuha.

"Kapal ng mukha." I murmured when she sits beside me.

Pero tinawanan lang ako then kisses my forehead. "Early celebration dapat."

Nagkwentuhan lang kami while eating. No, more on nakipagkwentuhan siya with my parents. Parang ako pa yung na left out, ako ata yung nakikain.

"Tara! Sa pool house tayo." Bea pulled me after we finished eating.

"Bahay mo?"

"Yeah, tagal na." She smirks at tuluyan na akong hinila. Ako naman? Ayun nagpahila.

"So, what force them allowing you to stay?" She asked right after makapasok kami sa pool house.

"Nothing, I guess? But they gave me condition." Bea look at me with her 'what-it-is-look' kaya sinagot ko kaagad. "I need to take up BS Psych as my course."

"Why Psych?"

"Psychology is flexible. I can enter business, law or medicine right after na wala masyadong hassle. You'll not lose track."

"So they don't really want you to be a doctor, huh?" Tumango ako para sumang-ayon sa kanya. Bea gave me this worried look.

"Obviously. But, who cares? This is the first step. I'll do whatever it takes for that dream, Bei." It was full of determination. But, Bea's gazes giving me this uncomfortable feeling.

"Even your family?" Nagulat ako sa tanong niya pero hindi ko pinahalata.

"Like what I said before, if hindi naman kailangan pumili, why choose, di ba? But is ever circumstances push me, siguro depende pa rin. Pero siguro naman, if they really love me, they will respect my decisions."

"Even me?" Kung nagulat ako kanina, mas nagulat ako ngayon.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Wala lang. I'm just curious kung pati ako kaya mong ipagpalit sa dream mo." My forehead wrinkles. Anong pinagsasabi nito?

"That's our dream." I told her while studying her expression.
