"Smile mo mukha mo. See you later." Sagot ko sakaniya. Siyempre diba nga, act normal. Pero wag naman abnormal. Iba na yun. Hahahahaha!
Bumaba na ako para pumasok pero bago iyon kumuha muna ako ng kahit ano sa refrigerator namin para baunin. Mansanas lang nakita ko kaya iyon nalang. Paalis na ako ng nagising sila mommy and daddy. "Aga mo ata anak?" Bungad ni daddy habang bumababa sila ng hagdan ni mommy. Inaalalayan niya si mommy, it's so sweet. "Hmmm. Motivated ka ba today? Kayo na ba ulit?" Tanong ni mommy. Bigla siyang ngumiti habang sinasabi niya ito. I know what she's thinking.
"Uhh no, maaga lang talaga pasok ko ngayon, half day lang kami. May meeting kasi yung mga professor namin after ng class." Sagot ko. Oo nga pala ano, half day kami. Sakto.
"By the way, mom and dad.. baka gabi na ako makauwi. I'll meet Dean sa may BGC, may papagusapan lang kami. Maybe makakuha na ako closure or kung magiging kami ulit. I miss him, actually." Ngiti ko sakanila. Kahit medyo masakit.
"Tsaka isosoli ko na yung sweater niya na nasa akin." Dagdag ko. My parents are very supportive since then kaya alam kong ayos lang sakanila. They actually love Dean. Buong pamilya ko, okay samin kaya wala akong poproblemahin. Teka, bakit parang ciniclaim ko na agad na magbabalikan kami? Grrr. Gusto mo din girl eh, kunwari ka pa eh. But remember, huwag ka munang umasa.
"You deserve everything, anak. Do what makes you happy. We're always here for you. As well as Dean. He's been with you through your ups and downs, right? Why not give him a chance? Mabait na bata iyon at meron akong tiwala sakaniya. Pero still, you'll decide nak." Dad said. I want to cry! They know what happened about us. Alam nila na I don't want to open up about it. But, I think nagulat sila na today I chose to say something about me and Dean. And also about what's happening at the moment.
Pero yung kung bakit kami nag-away
I think I'm not yet ready.
But hindi naman ganun ka-OA yung reason, ayoko lang talaga alalahanin. It hurts. Lol.
"Yes, that's right. You and Dean deserves each other. We love you both. Follow your heart, bebe namin. Huwag kang mag-papakain sa pride mo. We're proud of you. At sa wakas, nakapagsabi ka saamin. Alam naman nating hindi totoo na sila na ulit nung ex niya. Kinausap namin siya noong nag-break kayo. At doon namin siya nakilala lalo." I cried and hugged them both. But I didn't know nagusap pala sila. Ano kayang naging conversation between them and Dean? Pretty curious pero I have no time kaya sa susunod ko nalang itatanong.
But, now I know I've decided. I'll give him another chance. This makes my heart and myself happy.
I love him so much, and I won't let anyone ruin us this time now. Especially that Sofia. That bitch.
"Smile na anak. Bring him here, later ha? Introduce him to us again as your boyfriend for the second time. We'll prepare dinner." Sabi ni Daddy. I'm so happy. What a way to start my day. "Thank you for everything, Mom and Dad. I love you and I'm so grateful. Alis na po ako coz today is going to be a very long day." Paalam ko sakanila sabay ngiti as a sign of relief. I'm speechless yet happy.
Nilabas ko na yung kotse at pumunta na ako sa school. 45 minutes din binyahe ko. Grabe, traffic. Hassle. Pagkarating ko, nakasalubong ko si Paul sa labas ng room ng mga senior high. Maybe pinuntahan niya yung room nung sister niya, si Yvonne. I'm a 3rd year college, while si Dean and Paul ay 4th year. Graduating na sila. I'm really really proud of them. They made it this far, after all those thesis they've been through. Hahahahaha!
