Broken Strings (YaRylle FanFic)

Chapter 36- A New Life With Them

Janella's POV

"So sad we're leaving this wonderful, awesome place."

"Dont worry, we can come back anytime... When we're not busy," -Karylle. But we're always busy.

A moment of silence.... But as I expected, mamita broke it.

"I guess, someone needs to talk to somebody." -ZsaZsa. Talk? Again? "K?"

"Yeah, thanks ma." -Karylle. They all left except for me, mom and dad.

"What will we talk about again?"

"We're leaving." -Karylle. Yeah, I know. We're leaving this awesome place. Awesome.

"Leaving bora? Or..." -Yael. Oh.

"Yes, Ella, we're leaving Phils. Sorry Yael, you can't spend more time with Ella anymore." -Karylle. Gosh, dad was like... ughh... I don't wanna see those teary eyes.

Silence again.... I hugged daddykins, I cant resist. Then mom held dad's both hands an knelt down in the sand. That's ouchy!

"Sorry... I'm sorry Yael for everything. I hope you can forgive me for everything. I know you can still remember those. Again, I'm so sorry. Sana balang araw.. Sana... Mapatawad mo ako. Balang araw." -Karylle. So she just realized she was wrong. That's easy.

Mom pulled my hand and we already went to the boat. Only me, mom and the fisherman. And dad is left in there... Pity.

"Mom? What just happened?" I didn't hear anything from her but tears. Tears of joy or sorrow? Sorrow I guess... Tears all over her face. "Mom stop the car." "I know you still love him. Am I right?" She stopped the car and wiped her tears.

"I don't know, I dont know what am I doing know. My mind told me I dont want him any more but on the other hand, my heart tells me I still love him." -Karylle. That's love... I hugged her sincerely for the very first time. First time.

"Wait," I hurriedly called dad's phone and he answered back immediately.

"Hello? Ella?" -Yael. I can still hear sadness im his voice.

"Dad, wait for us there. Really important matter."

"Okay, okay." -Yael. Oh yeah baby. Peace in the world. We went back to the beach. Its good we haven't go too far.

"Mom, faster! In the name of love...!" She approached dad. I just let them talk, a drop of tear fell down to my cheeks. Awww...

Karylle's POV

"Good morning mom." -Janella. Ngayon, 11 na sila Ella, she's almost a teen. Time flies too fast nga naman talaga. Pero buti nandyan pa ang baby bunso namin, si Hannah Julia, she's 3.

"Mommy!! Ellaaaa!! Good morning!!" -Julia. Energized baby namin ngayon ah. She calls Ella, Ella only. No ate. Hindi yan uso dito sa New York eh. By the way, Ella's with Yael. Buhat-npbuhat niya.

"What do you want baby Julia?"

"Pancakes!!!" -Julia and Yael. They love my pancakes. Hihi.

Janella's POV

I hate pancakes. Really hate them. Well, mom always cooks pancakes.. Julia's favorite. The last time I ate pancakes was last month. Crepe with whipped cream is my fave. I have no choice but to eat outside.

"Ella, aren't you gonna eat?" -Yael.

"Nope. I prefer eating with my friends."

"Wut?" -Julia. Psh.

"Are you deaf? I JUST SAID I PREFER EATING WITH MY FRIENDS!!" Aww... The baby starts to cry. Duuh!?

"Ella...!" -Karylle. Whatever. I stormed out of the house and went to E.A.T Cafe. I just ordered Linguini ang Potato Pancakes. My ideal breakfast.

I ate up all my potato pancakes and suddenly, someone sat on the other chair of my table. It's Brianna Ruth Madrigal. Pure Filipina but an American citizen.

"Hey? What's up?" -Brianna. Me? Fine? No way.. "How's life being the eldest?" She knows.

"There, my sister's so urggghh!!" I punched the table so hard all the customers turned the attention on me for a 5 seconds.

"That's so embarrasing, Ella." -Brianna. So what?

"I don't care,"

"Wanna hang-out with the girls?" -Brianna. Why not?

"Sure. I love to! Besides, I don't wanna see my sister."

Karylle's POV

"Baby, alam mo ba kung anong problema ni Ella?"

"No. Tsaka hindi naman siya nagsasabi saakin eh." -Yael. Oo nga.

"What happened to her?" -Julia. Hindi na 'to nasanay na laging umaalis ate niya...

"I'm done eating my breakfast.. I'll just go to my room." -Julia. Pumunta siya agad sa room niya, sign para mag usap kami ni Yael.

"Part pa yun ng pagiging teenager? Laging layas."

"Ewan ko din. Hindi naman ako ganon dati. Eh mula nung 2 years si Ella ganyan na yan." -Yael. Teka, I smell something fishy.

"Teka, teka, hindi kaya nagiging unfair tayo masyado?"

"Huh? Paano naman? Eh pareho naman natin silang anak?" -Yael. Yeah pero...

"Isn't it we spend more time with Julia than Ella? Siguro kaya Ella's always with her friends."

"Maybe. Pero I think ganyan na kapag teens. Always with friends... Less talk and halos hindi na lumalabas sa kuwarto." -Yael.

"We need to talk to her."

"Pero alam mo namang hindi yun nadadaan sa ganon?" -Yael. Oo, hindi pala siya nakikinig.

"It's worth a try. Malay mo naman. Plan number one palang yan,"

"Will I call her now para makausap natin siya?" -Yael.

"Yah. Dahil kung hindi pa natin siya tatawagan ngayon, for sure mamayang gabi or hapon pa yun uuwi." Tinawagan niya si Ella agad, naka loud speaker so naririnig ko yung mga pinag-uusapan nila.

"What?" -Janella.

"Go home now," -Yael.

"But I'm at the mall with my friends..." -Janella. Nasa mall? Nanaman?

"You need to go home now. We really need to talk to you." -Yael.

"Urghh! Fine. I'll be there." -Janella. Mabuti naman kung ganon.

Since New York's a long island... Parang Manila rin, matagal pa bago siya makarating dito sa bahay.

"What now?" I intructed her to sit down.

"Do you hate us?" -Yael. "Do you think we're being unfair?"

"No comment. Ask Julia, for sure, she knows the answer." -Janella. I looked at her seriously. "What? She's smart, like you. Who knows... I'm not smart, maybe I'm not the Janella Yvanna Karly you lost. The YNA who you left 13 years ago?" -Janella. O.0 She can remember? O.0 My husband and I are speechless. "I really need to go." Umalis na nga siya. We didn't hear anything from her but what we last heard is enough.

"Oh em gee. She can remember! Siguro naman, mag-iiba na siya?"

"I don't think so. She became worst." -Yael. Maybe?
