Pagtatagpong Muli

Chapter 1

I was listening a music through my earphones while watching the pouring rain.

Im here inside my favorite cafe. Reminiscing all the memories that we made from the past 7 years.

How it started and how it ended. Ngayon lang ulit ako nakabalik ng Pilipinas simula nong araw na nangyari ang lahat.

We are meant but we are not destined for each other. Sadly meant to be is just a theory for a someone like me whose hoping about meant to be.

Ang daming nagbago. Ang daming nawala at ang daming bagong umusbong. My favorite cafe noon ay hindi gaanong sikat but now this is one of the famous cafe in the Philippines.

I wiped my tears the moment I hear the song in my phone 'akoy sayo at ikay lamang' our theme song for each other. 7 years has pass but my love didnt change.

Everything was clear. Everything will not going back the way it use to be cause everything happens in a wrong time.

I was about to leave in my favorite cafe when someone...

"Hi! Miss Xandri pwede po ba mag pa autograph?" tanong ng isang teen ager na bata sa akin.

I was once hers.

"Sure" dali dali nyang kinuha ang unang libro na napublish ko it was entitled " When ice melts"

Yes I am a writer and I am so grateful that my story is one of the famous books in town.

"Thank you po" pagpapasalamat ng babae saakin.

"No problem"

agad kong kinuha ang payong na nasa gilid ko at lumabas na sa paborito kong cafe.

Alexandria Knight Villafuerte  the daughter of Alexer and Alexis. The princess of the three kings.

Nag iisang babae sa pamilya namin at ka kambal ni Alexandrie Thunder.

I dont want to be late for my interview in the famous TV network here in my hometown so I drive fast as I could.

The moment I arrived from the parking lot I immediately go to the dressing room and dress up I dont need make up cause I dont have enough time.

"Maam Xandria 5 minutes nalang po sabi ni direk" sabi ng isa sa mga staff doon.

"Okay na ako" deklara ko sa mga nag re retouch sa akin. Kailangan daw kasing mag retouch.

One of the staff keeps on reminding me what will I do and keep on nodding.

I immediately sit on  the chair and the host is in the front of me.

"We will be on air after 3 minutes"

"Hi! Miss Alexandria it was nice to meet you" naglahad ng kamay ang host ng show. Na agad ko namang tinanggap.

"Its my pleasure too"

"We are so happy na pinaunlakan mo ang aming imbitasyon alam naman naming minsan ka lang umuwi dito sa pinas"

napangiti lang ako sa sinabi ng host sa saakin. Uuwi lang ako ng Pilipinas kung kailangan. Minsan uuwi ako 3 days lang at puno pa ang schedule nya ko for book signing and etc.

"Bea,
Miss Alexandria, your host for today"

"Camera rolling in 5,4,3,2,1 action!"

"magandang gabi mga ka pamilya. Another night another guest and luckily napaunlakan ng isang sikat na author not only in the philippines but also in some other countries. Our very own Ms. Alexandria Knight Villafuerte"

Tumayo naman ako at ngumiti sa mga tao na nasa harapan ko.

"Have a sit Ms. Xandria So now lets talk about you"

Lagi naman tong tanong everytime I have a guesting.

"How are you Miss Xandria?"

"Im okay. Contented of what I have and Happy"

"What makes you happy? Is there someone who makes you happy?"

All eyes and all ears is on me.

"My family Ms. bea who makes me happy"

"Okay wala palang special someone" natatawang pahayag ng host. "Well patikim lang yun. We all know you as a good writer but sino nga ba talaga si Alexandria Knight Villafuerte?"

"Shes a woman who keep on chasing and dreaming. And now nakuha na nya ang gusto nya"

"Very simple a woman who chase and dream. Well maraming nagbabasa sa mga libro mo and one of your books ay ginawa na ng movies here in the philippines. It was entitle When Ice Melts we feel the pain, the happiness, and everything in the story. Pano mo yan nagagawa? Have you fall for someone?"

And thats a tough question di ako ready sa tanong na yan.

"oo naman. Lahat naman siguro tayo nakararanas na ma inlove"

"Why do you entitle it 'When the Ice melts?' "

"Kasi because of that girl his coldness melts"

"Whats the name of the girl in the story?"

"Andrea"

"And the boy?"

"Luckey"

"Was Andrea in the story was you in the real world? Yes or No only"

Lahat ng tao na nasa studio ay nakatitig at nakikinig saamin.

Ayokong sumagot.

"Does Luckey the Ice exist in this world?"

Lahat nag aabang sa isasagot ko.

kaso wala akong maisasagot.

" 'Loving you is not a choice I love you because I love you' yan ang linyang tumatak sa isipan namin now Loving him Ms. Alexandria was not a choice nga ba?" 

Tahimik.

Yan ang naririnig ko sa studio tanging ang background music lamang ang naririnig ko. Lahat ng tao naka abang sa sagot ko.

"No hindi ko sya minahal dahil sa rason na choice ko na mahalin sya. I love him because I love him like what Luckey said in the story" .

I didn't expect di ako prepared masyadong ma personal ang tanong na binabato sa akin.

And I dont want many people will know about my Hidden Love story.
