I stared at the marble while the name of Dream's fathed was carved on it. Finally, we're here. I slowly sat on the tiles while looking at the date of his birth and death.
Naramdaman ko ang pag-upo ni Dream sa tabi ko at ang marahang paghawak niya sa aking kamay. I smiled at her and leaned so I could plant a kiss on her forehead. We lit up the small round candles and did an indian sit in their family's mausoleum.
"Do you want to talk to him first?" She drifted her eyes to my direction.
Umiling ako kaya tumango siya at muling bumaling sa harap.
"Hi pa," she forced a smile. "Malapit na akong ikasal."
Huminga siya ng malalim at mas hinigpitan ang pagkakahawak sa kamay ko. "Pa, sorry kung hindi agad kami dumalaw. Galit kasi ako sa'yo no'n kaya ayokong pumunta dito at magsabi ng kung ano-ano sa'yo, kaya ipinagpaliban ko nalang muna ang pagbisita. But today, I have finally come to a realization na walang patutunguhan kung magtatanim ako ng galit. Ikaw pa rin naman ang papa ko kahit bali-baliktarin pa ang mundo. Nagkamali ka lang naman. At pinapatawad kita sa mga maling nagawa mo. Sana'y napatawad mo rin ako sa mga ginawa kong mali. " she paused so I tightened my grip on her hand. "Pa, I may not say this all the time when you were still alive but I want to say I love you. And I will always do. Thank you and sorry, papa."
I gently pulled her so I could envelop her into a hug when she started sobbing. She tightened the hug and cried in my arms.
I slowly uttered a prayer for the soul of her father while comforting Dream. I sighed and gazed at Dream. "Let's go?" I asked her.
Marahan siyang tumango at inayos ang mga bulaklak sa puntod ng tatay niya. I gently held her elbow and pulled her up to help her stand. We gazed at the tombs of their relatives before we went out and locked the gates of their mausoleum. Dream was silent the whole ride, the indie songs were the only thing that filled the silence. After dropping her off, I maneuvered the car and went to my condo to get ready for the bachelor's party.
I twisted the door knob and lightly pushed the door, the interior of my unit filled my eyes. I walked to the couch and dipped my weight on it. Kinapa ko ang remote at naghanap ng magandang palabas. I comfortably rested my back on the sofa when I finally found a good movie.
"What the fuck," I whispered when the fucking plot twist just came when the movie was almost done. The short movie was almost fucking done and here they are, dropping some fucking plot twist! God, why do people hate happy endings so bad?
My phone rang so I glanced at it. I picked it up and swiped the accept button before putting it on my ear.
"I can't believe i'm doing this," I heard her frustrated voice.
I automatically tried to fight the urge to chuckle when I heard her voice. "Why? When was the last time you wore a dress or had a make up on your face?"
Venus went silent for a while before sighing. "I fricking don't remember either. I was always wearing our suit and those cargo pants that wearing a dress would make me feel concious now! And for that fricking make up, I also don't know either! Geez, did we made the right choice? I'm now starting to regret filing that resignation letter. I never knew I would fricking miss the Administration so bad."
"Uh-huh. You're now talkative," I chuckled.
Biglang tumahimik ang kabilang linya. My brows furrowed when she suddenly hang up the call. I stared at the screen and chuckled. That easily pissed woman.
I scribbled on my contacts and just called Dream instead. Agad niya naman itong sinagot.
"Brave, our invitation card is almost done!" Dream happily said.
