Vince's POV

"Jorgina," Dad greeted Tita Jorgina pagkapasok na pagkapasok niya sa bahay namin. She's with her son, Jorge. "Akala ko hindi mo na naman kami sisiputin eh."

"Hindi naman ako pupunta kung hindi ako pinilit ng asawa mo eh." Tita Jorgina retorted then she turned to my Mom. "Hi Juliana girl."

Bumeso siya kay Mom and Dad before she turned to me. "O, Vince, grabe ang laki mo na. You're getting more and more handsome everytime na nakikita kita ah."

"Thank you, Tita." Sabi ko na lang and kissed her on her cheeks.

"Kanino pa ba magmamana 'yan?" Dad asked smugly.

"Edi kay Juliana, obviously." Tita Jorgina teased.

Dad then turned to Mom. "Hon, bakit mo nga ulit inimbita 'to?"

Nagtawanan na lang kami. According to my Mom, high school pa lang daw sila, lagi nang ganyan sila Tita Jorgina tsaka si Dad.

"O, Jorge, 'musta?" I asked my kinakapatid. Medyo matagal din kasi namin siyang hindi nakita.

"Okay naman, Kuya. Still mourning but I'm doing fine." He answered with meek.

Seven months ago, Jorge's Dad died. It was an accident pero he's blaming himself sa nangyari kay Tito Arry.

"Good. You'll be okay, Jorge. I know you're strong at you'll get through this." Sabi ko naman sa kanya and patted his shoulder.

"Thank you, Kuya." He smiled again but I saw the sadness in it.

After catching up with Tita Jorgina, Mom and Dad decided na pumunta na kila Tita Tanya.

I volunteered to drive para magkaroon pa ng time sila Mom at Dad at si Tita Jorgina para makapag-usap pa while we're on our way there.

And this is better to keep myself occupied so I won't have time to think of Veera. Not that I hate her, it's just that I can't help but to get hurt everytime I think of her.

Malinaw pa rin sa akin lahat ng sinabi niya the last time we talked and it still stings.

But that didn't changed what I feel for her. Mahal ko pa rin si Veera at walang nagbago do'n. Pero tama na rin siguro itong desisyon ko to go to Seoul.

Maybe I'll be able to move on if I'm not anywhere near her. Maybe that would make her happy.

"Jorge!" Veronica exclaimed when he saw Jorge with us kaya napatingin din si Veera sa kanya. They both ran to him. Veera didn't even throw a look at me.

Lumapit na rin si Tita Tanya kay Tita Jorgina. They hugged-more like squeezed each other.

"My god, Jorgina! Finally you went out of your cave! Na-miss kita, gaga." Tita Tanya said.

"Miss you, too, gaga! O, anong niluto mo? Favorite ko ba 'yan?" Tita Jorgina joked.

Our parents laughed and continued catching up with each other.

"Omg, how are you? Bakit ngayon ka lang nagpakitang bruha ka?" Veera told Jorge

"Busy lang talaga, Vee." Sagot naman ni Jorge. "I missed you two." He added and hugged both of them.

Veronica turned to me while Veera continued talking to Jorge, still ignoring me.

"Hi, Kuya." Veronica greeted and kissed me on my cheek.

"Hi, Veronica." I greeted back. "Where's Vrent? I miss him so much."

"Pinalitan lang ng diaper ni Brian. Patapos na rin siguro." She answered. Sakto namang lumabas ng CR si Brian at si Vrent.
