How To Love A Superstar?

5 years after

Eric's POV:

Eric: "Babe are you ready to go?"

Paige: "Oo ready na ako, medyo nagmadali na nga ako e- hindi ko natapos yung piece deadline ko pa naman na dapat yun today, sa isang araw na pi-pick upin yun eh."

Eric: "Will you have enough time for it tomorrow?"

Paige: "Oo kaya ko naman siguro yun- teka anong oras ba lalapag yung flight niya?"

Eric: "About an hour from now?"

Paige: "Aabot ba tayo?"

Eric: "I don't know pero we have to go now."

Ngayon ang uwi ni Dale from the US. She only stayed for about half a year back home after releasing her book *How to love a superstar?* . They made a movie out of it but she never attended the premier, I don't even know if she had ever seen it.

Nung bumalik siya noon for Donny's eulogy, akala niya kaya niya nang magsimula muli, pero hindi pala, kaya mas minabuti niyang bumalik sa US, kung saan sinimulan niyang buuin muli ang sarili niya. And that was 5 years ago. She had isolated herself, only contacted us through video calls and emails. So now we are excited to have her back. She planned to reopen Café o Dale, and grand reopening would be a couple of days from now.

As for me, I am still me, same old Eric, Paige and I are still together, going strong, still living together, we never once broken up or fought, after realizing that what we have is real. We haven't spoken about marriage, although I am ready, I know that Paige still wants to focus on her dreams, and I understand that. I see how passionate she is with her craft, and I am happily supporting her all the way. When it's time, it's time.

Reese and Trina are now also very successful with R&T publishing, they now own 100 percent of the company, I sold it to them when I realized that I was useless to them in the business. Trina is now engaged and Reese and Jim had been dating for quite sometime now, and they just had their first baby early this year.

Pag dating namin sa airport, we saw from the monitor na lumapag na ang eroplano ni Dale. We just waited for her near the exit.

Paige: "Ay ayan na siya!"

Eric: "Dale!"

She ran towards me and I gave her the warmest hug.

Eric: "I missed you! Finally! We have you back-"

Dale: "Yes! I can't wait to see nanay and tatay! And naku! Gustong gusto ko na makita si baby Liam! Ang gwapo gwapo!"

Eric: "Well everyone's waiting for you!"

Matapos kaming mag salo salo sa bahay ng parents ni Dale- nagpahatid siya samin sa bahay niya.

Eric: "Are you sure you're going to be okay here? We can stay with you if you want-"

Umiling ito.

Dale: "I'm okay. I am now ready to go home."

Matagal siyang hindi nakatungtong sa bahay ng grandparents niya. Naaalala niya parati yung huling beses niyang nakita si Donny. Memories. But now it seems like handa na talaga siyang harapin ang lahat.

Dale: "See you tomorrow, Paige, thank you sa pag sundo."

Paige: "naku anytime, bukas si Eric lang ang makakasama sayo ha, meron kasi akong deadline e-"

Dale: "of course, don't worry, see you Eric-"

Dale's POV:

Bago ko tuluyang -iikot ang susi ko para buksan ang pinto, huminga muna ako ng sobang lalim. Kahit talaga gaano mo ng pinaghandaan harapin ang ilang bagay, hindi parin ito ganun kadali kapag nandun kana.
