Kinabukasan. Ipinagpaliban na muna ang photo shoot para sa up coming concert nila dahil na din sa nangyari kay Rege. Habang si Scarlet naman, nasa unit lang niya iniisip yung incidente.
"Hindi ko naman talaga sinasadya iyon eh. Hindi ko din naman alam na allergic din siya sa hipon." Nakanguso niyang bulong sa sarili habang naka titig sa salamin. She's in the middle of her thoughts when someone knock outside her door. Pagbukas niya ng pinto. "The last time I check wala na akong tatay kasi he suddenly vanished without even calling or thinking na may anak pa siya." She stated coldly and sarcasm is there.
"Sab naman. I was there for work and for your future." Depensa agad nito.
"Really? Or maybe for your new family." Sagot niya sabay na umupo sa couch at nag-cross arms.
"Ha!? Who said that? You're the only family I have." he laughs.
"Oh come on Dad. Pareho lang kayo ng nanay ko, nang iiwan sa eire." Inis niyang sagot sabay ikot ng dalawang mata.
"Anak aaminin ko kasalanan ko ang lahat, nagalit ako sa Mommy mo noon. Nalaman ko kasing iniwan ka niya sa Momita mo kaya hindi ko binalak na sabihin sayo kong sino talaga siya but--
"I don't need your explanations Dad. I want the truth, iyon lang but I guess this isn't the right time." Putol niya sa pagpapaliwanag nito.
After the so called conversation. Scarlet on the other hand had no choice but to accept her Dad even though she think, one day he might leave her again. Promises are made to be broken after all.
KINABUKASAN.
"Sweetheart, I have something to tell you." While they're having breakfast.
"Hmm!? About what?" Huminga muna siya ng malalim bago magsalita.
"Ahm." Sabay hawak niya sa kamay ng bunso. "It's about your sister sweetheart. I finally saw your Ate." She informed. Habang si Ali hindi na nagulat. "Hindi ka ba masaya?" Taka niya sa naging reaction nito.
"Is she really Sab? Maybe she's just pretending." Pretending not to know.
"She's definitely your Ate Sab." Ani niya. "In fact you know her." Naiirita na si Ali sa ikinikilos ng Mommy niya, hindi din nito alam kung bakit ganun nalang ang inis niya kay Scarlet.
"Really? Then it must be easier for her to adjust if ever." Sarcastikong sagot nito para mapakunot ang noo ni Rege.
"What do you mean?"
"Nah! Nothing." She shrug. "Then who's my lucky sister?"
"Si Scarlet, siya ang Ate Sab mo." As expected. Hindi mapawi-pawi ang ngiti sa mga labi ni Rege habang si Ali tumango-tango lang at pilit na niyakap pabalik ang Mommy niya, nagkunwari pa siyang masaya.
SCARLET
"Bakla!!! Malapit ka ng maglevel up, 3 days to go birthday mo na mabuti na lang at naalala ko, so how does it feel?" Mas excited pa ata ito kesa sa akin. Nandito pala kami ngayon sa studio para sa rehearsal ng nalalapit naming concert ni SB.
"Okay lang." Sagot ko while combing my hair.
"That's it? Seriously?" Pangungulit nito. Tinanguan ko lang siya, ang kulit eh. "Wala ka bang expectations and everything?"
