"I'm happy now, Cassidy," nakangiting sabi Christian habang nakatingin sa nakatalikod na si Theia.
She excused herself to go to the comfort room for a while. Psyche is with her boyfriend kaya hindi siya kasama ngayon.
I gave Christian a fake smile. "I can see that. Good for you." Hindi ko mapigilang mabahiran ng bitterness ang tono ko. Am I the only one here who feels miserable?
Christian tapped my shoulder. "It's all thanks to you. Naalala mo no'ng umalis ka dati? Sabi mo dapat pagbalik mo, kami na. I decided to make a move. Thanks, Cassi."
"Cassi, you have to make a move. In order for you to be happy, you have to do something," may laman niyang saad.
Bumuntonghininga ako at pinaglaruan ang straw ng macchiato ko.Bumalik na si Theia. She slid on the chair next to Christian. "What's going on?" nagtatakang tanong niya.
Umiling nalang ako at pinilit kong ngumiti. Nagtaas siya ng kilay but she knows better than to press me for information, so she just shrugged it off. After an hour, we decided to go home.
I boarded a cab and told the cabbie where I wanted him to drop me off.Habang nasa taxi ako ay hindi ko mapigilang maalala ang gabing naospital si Drei. That was the night I cut ties with Aaron. That was the night I asked him to let me go and he did. That was the night I lost him forever.
Pagkatapos ng gabing 'yon ay hindi na ulit siya nagpakita. He regularly calls the twins at pinapasundo niya ito sa bahay. But he remained true to his words. When he bade his farewell, I actually felt that he meant it. I knew I had no right to cry and be broken about it but I was.
In two months, I'll be Drei's wife. I eyed the engagement ring on my finger. It felt painful to look at.
Pinadala 'to ni Aaron sa bahay the night Drei got discharged. After no'ng gabing pinili ko si Drei ay hindi ko na nakita pa ni ang anino ni Aaron.
I have to put it all together. And now, it's been a month.We're flying out in a few days.

"Ano'ng ginagawa mo riyan?" tanong ko kay Drei na naghihintay sa akin.
He pouted at me. "Hinihintay ka. Masama bang hintayin ang pag-uwi ng fiancee ko? Masama ka bang ma-miss?" paglalambing niya.
"Ewan ko sa 'yo, Drei. Baka makasinghot ka na naman ng alikabok. Pumasok ka na nga sa loob."
Kinuha niya 'yong mga pinamili ko para sa kambal at inakbayan ako. Sabay na kaming pumasok sa loob ng bahay. Nadatnan namin si manang na nakikipaglaro sa dalawa. Xiana and Xander ran towards me and hugged my legs.
"Mommy! We're home! Daddy has a meeting so he sent us home even if it's early."
Pinilit kong ngumiti pero ngiwi ang lumabas sa bibig ko. I patted their heads. "Mommy bought new clothes for you two."
