"I took the risk for you. I lied to my parents about us. I accepted the pain that you brought me. I love you. That's what my heart says. But why did you leave me? Why did you leave me on my birthday? Why did you leave me... on new year's eve?"

"Zandro, kinakabahan ako..."
He smiled and held my hand. "Ano ka ba, na-meet mo naman dati sila Mama at Papa."
"Oo pero iba pa rin ang ngayon..."
"Love, calm down... Hindi sila nangangagat. They'll love you for sure!"
Kahapon na-meet ng aking pamilya si Zandro at ngayon naman papasok kami sakanilang bahay. Nasa loob ang boung pamilya niya. I bit my lower lip. My heart is beating rapidly.
Pumasok kami sa loob at sinalubong ako ng Mama niya.
"Zandro! Elyse!"
Ngumiti ako sa kanya. Nanlaki ang aking nga mata ng yumakap at bumeso siya sa 'kin.
"I'm so glad to see you again hija! I am also so happy that you guys got back together!"
Tito Zeus chuckled at the back. He held his wife's waist and greeted me with a big smile.
"Kumusta, hija? Have you been well?"
"Opo, Tito..."
"Kain na tayo!" ani ng isang magandang babae. I think she's in her late 40's.
"Love, this is Tita Shera. She's Cyrus' mother."
"Hi, dear! It's so nice to finally meet you!"
Yumakap at bumeso siya sa 'kin. On her side is a man, I'm guessing he's her husband.
"Ito naman si Tito Philip. Asawa siya ni Tita Shera."
Ngumiti ako sa lalake. He smiled back.
"Upo na tayo. Baka lamigan na ang mga pagkain," aniya
Umupo na kami sa hapagkainan.
"Saan na sila Cyrus at Ate Einica?" tanong ni Zandro.
"We're here!"
Napatingin kami sa biglang nag salita. May dalang tupperware si Cyrus at Ate Einica.
"Bumili kasi kami ng sweets kaya na-late kami."
Umupo sial sa harapan namin ni Zandro.
"Hi! I'm Einica! Zandro's cousin!" naglahad siya ng kamay at maligaya ko itong tinanggap.
"Nice to meet you..."
"Likewise!"
Cyrus chuckled on her side and smiled at me.
"Long time no see, Elyse..."
"Oo nga eh..."
"Kain na tayo!" si Zandro at siya pa ang nanalangin. After that, we started eating. Zandro gave me some of his food, which made me smile.
"Elyse, I heard you have thalassemia. How are you feeling, hija?" tanong ni Tita Divine. Natahimik ang lahat. I felt Zandro held my hand under the table. I looked at him and put on a small smile.
