ViceRylle: Pagbigyan Muli (Love On Top Book 2)

Little Things

After a few minutes, Vice and Karylle decided to go downstairs para makabalik sila sa party. Nauna namang nagbihis si Karylle. Naglagay siya ng konting make-up and combed her hair na sobrang magulo pa dahil nga sa nangyari. Si Vice naman ay kumuha ng kanyang black long sleeved V-neck shirt at nagshorts na lamang siya para mas komportable.

Pagkalabas ng kwarto ay nagulat naman si K sa nakita. Si Anne at Coleen. 

"Hi Ate K! Kanina pa kayo hinahanap sa baba."

"Oo nga K. San ba kasi kayo galing ni Vice?" Anne asked while smirking.

"Nakatulog lang ako tapos sumabay na si Vice. Alam niyo na, jetlag! Pero tara na sa baba!" madaliang sagot ni Karylle which made Anne smile leaving Coleen clueless.

Hindi nagtagal, ay lumabas na rin si Vice ng kwarto. Pati si Vice ay nagulat rin nang makita si Anne na nakatitig sa kanya.

"Anong problema mo?" tanong ni Vice sabay irap. Natawa na lang si Anne at lumakad palayo kay Vice. "Wala. Lumindol kanina eh." Na gets naman ni Vice ang sinabi ni Anne kaya nanlaki ang mga mata niya which made Anne laugh louder.

"Mommy, where have you been? Hinahanap ka po nila Lolo" sabi naman ni Kiara habang kayakap ang mommy niya. Agad namang pinuntahan ni Karylle ang Daddy niya sa pool at doon ay nag-usap silang dalawa.

She gave her dad a backhug which surprised him dahil hindi niya nakita ang anak. 

"What's up po?"  

"We need to talk."

"About?

"You.. You and Vice." 

Karylle felt scared dahil mukhang seryoso ang ama niya. She took a deep breath and started to explain everything that happened. Every detail of it. 

While talking, maiging nakikinig ang Daddy niya. She couldn't help but still cry dahil sa kanyang mga nagawang kasalanan sa loob ng dalawang taon na nawala siya bigla sa Pilipinas at iniwan ang mga malalapit na tao sa puso niya.

 Nahahalata naman ni Karylle na sobrang disappointed ang ama. Kaya panay naman ang paghingi niya ng tawad dito.

"Dad, i'm really sorry. But I swear, hinding-hindi na po talaga mauulit ang lahat ng 'yon. I promise you." she hugged her father as tight as she could when she saw him teary-eyed.

Her dad pulled away from the hug and looked at her eyes.

"Anak, love really hurts. Like what Dr. Phil said "Grief is a process to go through, not a destination in which to wallow. In a process, you keep putting one foot in front of the other, and each little step is part of your healing.". You really didn't need to escape your problems, K. You need to face them because you learn from them." said Dr. M with a smile on his face.

"Hearts were meant to be broken, anak. Kailangan natin tanggapin ang reality. Not all the time we'll be happy right? There will always come a time na magkakaroon ng misunderstanding sa inyo ng taong mahal mo, especially during the married life. But as a couple, both of you should never give up on each other. Ano pa silbi ng wedding vows niyo dati kung hindi naman pala kayo magtatagal? Remember, pag ginawa pa yun ni Vice ulit na lokohin ka, ako na haharap sa kanya. And don't run away, you have your friends,sisters,mom.. and me." he added.
