Dark's POV
A life with Cassandra is a life worth the wait.
That was proven to me as I reflected on the days of letting her go; from being that friend who gave her mixed signals and treated her as an option, to that stupid jerk who chose to hurt her, to the ex who kept begging for his chance, and now, her husband.
She had the choice to not comeback. She had the choice to love someone else. But she chose not to.
Doon pa lang, hindi ko na alam kung anong ginawa ko para sa pagmamahal niya.
But just like what I told myself years ago, I know that my girl deserves so much better. And I couldn't afford to see her with someone else... so I became better.

"May plano rin po ba kayong maka-trabaho siya sa isang project, Sir? Considering na parehong matunog ang mga pangalan niyo ngayon sa industriya."
That question from one of my interviews a few years ago, regarding her comeback, still strikes my mind every now and then. At tandang-tanda ko pa ang sinagot ko sa journalist noon.
"Everything's not settled yet but I already received an email about a certain project."
I said that confidently as I looked directly at the camera's lens. For some reason, I'd like to think that she was watching that interview from wherever she is.
For some reason, gusto kong maging hangal at paniwalain ang sarili ko na may paki-alam pa rin siya sa 'kin.
But my hope immediately faded as soon as we met again after four long years.
"Who are you?" I asked the man with an irritated voice. Clark daw ang pangalan.
"He's my son, the engineer." "Sorry for his bad behavior," Sir Louie apologized on behalf of his son. "Anyway, the meeting's now adjourned. You may now leave, everyone. My Secretary's going to email you the other details about the project. "
Marahan kong pinanood ang galaw ng lalaki. Ang sekretarya ni Cassandra ay nag-ayos na ng mga gamit, habang ako, nakatitig lang sa amo nito.
May balak ata kasi siyang tunawin no'ng Clark sa paraan ng pagtitig niya. Kaya siyempre, nakisabay ako at hinigitan ko pa.
I stared at Cassandra as I heard the man's next words.
Let's have a late lunch, babe. I cooked a new dish. "
Babe?!
Siraulo ba 'to?
Kahit gusto kong ipakita na naiinis ako, Hinintay ko munang mag-react si Cassandra sa paraan ng pagtawag ng lalaki sa kanya pero wala man lang nagbago sa ekspresyon ng mukha niya.
Perhaps... she's used to it. Of course.
Jokes on you for thinking that she has never been interested in anyone after you, Dark. Jokes on you.
But fuck.
Hindi pa rin ako natuto. Hindi ako tumigil sa pag-asa na baka hindi naman talaga sila noong malaman kong galing pala sa New York 'yung Clark.
I did my research. Babe isn't a thing for such a liberated nation. It was normal for them, and that gave me hope, even when Cassandra was totally giving me a cold impression.
