Cassiopeia Polaris (Sweetest Downfall Series I)

Bituin 13

I texted nanay na kasama ko sila Ferr at Kael dito sa bahay ng mga Ortuas and that Ate Kylie was summoned by their parents to go to their Manila Branch. Then she said Okay, you take care. I love you.

My mom is my one and only true bestfriend that I can have. Too bad that I wasn't able to tell her about my problem right now. Natatakot ako na nahihiya dahil ang dali kong isinuko ang dapat ay ibibigay ko sa taong pakakasalan ko lamang. But, I don't regret it.

Pumayag akong samahan si Storm manuod ng movies. Tinawagan din namin si Ferr at isinama niya si Michael. Kael Also joined us on our 2nd movie. Late lang siya nakauwi dahil na din sa duty niya sa Villa Cacillas.

Good thing that the Ortuas have their own mini theater sa bahay nila. It was an air conditioned room with 8 La-Z-Boy chairs. Hindi ko naiwasang mapaiyak kanina nang pinanuod namin ang Midnight Sun. Dumagdag pa sa nararamdaman ko ngayon. Tinukso tukso pa nga ako kanina ni Kael dahil ang OA ko ng dahil sa movie.

Kung alam mo lang Kael. The tears fell was not only because of that movie. It was beyond that.

Good thing na nandito sila. Kahit papaano ay nabawasan ang nararamdaman ko. It's already 9:30 pm.

Bumaba pa si Storm to get some drinks. He insisted to play some games. Damn. I didn't imagine na he'll bring a case of Mule.

Sinamahan pa ni Kael si Storm kumuha ng pagkain. At ang magkapatid na ito loko-loko talaga dinala na ata nila ang mga stock na pagkain nila sa sobrang dami ng bitbit ni Kael na Chichirya.

"Let's play Truth or Dare 2.0" Ferr insisted.

This games was different from the Legendary Truth or Dare Game na nakasanayan. Gawa-gawa lang namin ito noong summer get away. Pwedeng lagyan ng twist ang Truth.

Lahat sumang-ayon sa nais niya. Lumipat kami sa labas sa may pool area. We are seated formed in a circle.

Katabi ko sa left side si Ferr while Kael on my right side. Kaharap ko ngayon si Storm at katabi naman ni Ferr si Michael.

"So bottle. Choose wisely" kinausap pa ni Storm ang empty bottle ng wine. Akala mo naman sasagot ito sakanya.

Then Storm flipped the bottle.. I was drinking my Mule when Ferr gasped.

So, You chose wisely bottle huh? Ibinaba ko ang mule ko and I Immediately tied my hair then I said

"Truth" you're brave Cassiopeia. You are.

Naghiyawan sila at ang mga ngisi ng mga ito ay nag iisip ng siguradong mahirap na itatanong saakin. Throw me the hardest question you'll ever ask. C'mon

Since Storm flipped the bottle, He's the one who'll ask me but he also asked for the help of others kung ano ang itatanong.

"Okay. Are you ready, Aria?" Dinuro niya pa ako.

Loko loko talaga. Tinaasan ko lang siya ng kilay then I nod.

"Among us, if you'll be trapped in an Island. Sino ang gusto mong makasama habang buhay?" Wtf? Anong klaseng tanong 'yon? Pinag isipan ba yon?

"What? Seryoso ka sa tanong mo?" Tawang tawa ako sakanya.

Pero seryoso sila lahat.

Okay..If I'll be trapped... syempre naman si Ferr ang pipiliin ko hello? He's my friend.
Bestfriend rather

"Of course, si Ferr. Ang easy naman ng tanong mo." I laughed at them.

Ngumisi silang lahat and the next think I knew. Storm kissed my cheek.

Natuod ako sa kinauupan ko ngayon. What the hell happened? Kahit silang lahat ay nabigla din sa ginawa ni Storm

"We rambled our names and if that name was chosen. He'll give you something in return. Pero what the heck? I didn't expect that Storm. Was that counted?" Tanong ni Ferr.

But before Storm could answer Ferr's Question. Someone grabbed my wrist dahilan para mapatayo ako.

"Noelle" mahina kong tugon.

"You're going home" He starred at me. His eyes are burning. Galit siya.

"No. I'll sleep here with my friends" I replied at him at kinalas ko ang pagkakahawak niya saakin.

Tiningnan niya ang mga kasama ko. But he stopped when he saw Storm. He looked at him like he's going to punch him.

"May magkaibigan bang hinahalikan?" He asked while still starring at Storm.

Kael walked towards Noelle then he asked him "What are you doing here, Sir Noelle?"

Fuck. Only did I realized that I still haven't told him about us. Wait... Is there something between us? Or nag iilusyon lang ba ako?

"We're going home." Hinigit ko ang kamay ni Noelle palabas ng bahay ng mga Ortua. I promise to explain later to Kael. Siguradong magagalit iyon saakin.

I'm sitting on the passenger seat. We're both quiet habang nasa byahe. Hanggang sa napansin kong hindi kami lumiko papunta ng Village.

"Where are we going?" I asked.

"Somewhere Far" He's blankly starring at the road.

Mag A alas dies na ng gabi. Kaya kaunti na lamang ang bumabyahe sa daan Tanging Truck at iilang sasakyan na lang ang makikita.

Hininto niya ang sasakyan sa gilid kalsada. Nasa itaas na parte na kami ng San Antonio. Ang ganda tingnan ng Bayan. Malinawag ito.

"I have a lot of explanation to say, Cassiopeia. Please listen to me" He started to talk.

Binukas niya ang bintana ng sasakyan dahilan para maramdaman ko ang lamig ng hangin.

"Amethyst and I have no relationship. We broke up 3 years ago. She left me for her dreams and I respected that. I quietly moved on and No Cassiopeia, you are not a rebound" he kissed my hand.

But why is he ignoring me this morning?

"Bakit hindi mo ako pinapansin kanina? Pinagsisihan mo ba ang nangyare saatin?" I curiously asked him.

May kinuha siya sa backseat isang lumang litrato ng magkasintahan na may hawak hawak na sanggol. They looked so happy.

My tears fell when I saw the woman who was holding the baby. It was nanay.

"Nakita ko ito sa luggage ni Mommy na dumating kahapon. I talked to Tita France about it as soon as nang makita ko iyan. But she wanted me to keep it a secret from you dahil ayaw ka na niyang masaktan"

Sunod sunod ang luhang pumatak sa mata ko dahil ang tagal tagal ko ng gusto malaman ang mukha ng tatay ko. Gusto kong malaman kung bakit niya kami iniwan.

Noelle hugged me. I want to talk to nanay about this. Gusto ko ng umuwi.

"T-thank you for giving me this" I kissed him

"Sasabihin ko naman talaga sa'yo hindi ko lang alam kung papaano dahil pinakiusapan din ako ni Tita France" He cupped my face and he smiled

"But you know na papagalitan ako ni Tita France dahil sinabi ko hindi ba?" he added

"Umuwi na tayo. Haharapin ko pa ang Nanay mo" Noelle kissed me and then he started the engine.

Hahanapin kita Tatay. I want to know the truth. Gusto kong mabuo ang pagkatao ko.
