JON's POV

Chienna asked na bumalik  kami sa Pilipinas kaya pinagbigyan ko. Dinala nya na rin si Patricia. Iniwan nila ang business nila sa Mom ni Pat. Ngayon ay nag aaral ako at si Chie naman ay nasa workshop dahil ipupursue na nya ang showbiz.

CALLING ... Patricia

"Hello Jon. Si Chienna tumanggap ng project. Sabi nya inform daw kita. "

"No issue. Remind her not to accept anything na tatama sa birthday nya. We are going back to Chicago on her 18th and we dont know what is next"

"Uuh cant we not remind her the last words you said? She will be pissed."

"Ok. Im heading to class bye"

"Take care"

As much as I want us to stay here where my bestfriend is at her happiest kailangan namin bumalik sa Chicago in 6months. Yaaah, we are here in Ph. for 2months already. I reminded Chie about our limited time here before we came and as she goes on with her life Im afraid she might forget our departure soon.

"Mr. Lucas your Dad's secretary called asking if your fiance Ms. Lopez is studying too. I told her that I dont remember a Ms. Lopez in class." My professor said when i entered the room.

"She is home schooling Miss. And busy with other stuffs."

"I see. Okay then." Then i head to my usual spot in class.

"I never knew you are engaged" said my seatmate

"That was before but now, Im not anymore."

I messaged Chienna before the class started.

"Goodluck on your projects. 6months. Remember that okay? We dont know what is next after 6months."

Then she replied

"Thank you Jon. I never forget 6months. Thank you. I dont want to turn 18 tho. Stop texting me I know you are in class. See you later. Take care"

As much as i want to reply on her i cant anymore cause she told me to stop texting her.

After class i saw overseas missed calls which I think is from Aunt Anianna so I ignored it but it called again

"Jon this is you Aunt Anianna. I heard what Amanda's been doing there. She entered the how business is that true?"

I know she's trying to be calm but she cant. I'll tell her what she needs to know

"Aunt. Well ya she entered show business but dont react too much remember Aunt, you freed her for eight months. She still have six months aunt. Let her do what she want to do please Aunt?"

"Okay then Jon, but be sure she'll be back okay?"

"I'll do what I can Aunt. I got to go. I'll take a drive home."

As soon as I put my fone in my pocket it vibrated again

"Hello Aunt. What again?"

"Aunt ka dyan. Patricia to. Wait. Nakausap mo ang Dragon Mom?"

So its my girl. Damn. Bat ba di ako tumingin sa caller. Im doomed.

"Hoy Jon Dominic Lucas, nakausap mo ba si Tita Anianna the dragon? Wag ka na mag deny. Bakit mo sya kausap. Pumunta ka dito sa club house dali!"

"I'll explain. Im on my way Boss. Let me drive"

Patricia and  I are really lovers but because of that engagement thingy we separated and now that Chienna and I are free from each other I courted Patricia again and she answered me of course. After chie's 18th we really dont know what is next

I reached the club house in 10mins and saw patricia who immediately pull me soon as she saw me

"What happened to your conversation with the dragon mom?" She asked. "Hey calm down. Well alam nya na nag artista si Chie"

"How can i calm down?! For sure she'll be here!"

"Heeey! Amanda, I mean Chie is free remember? She still have 6 months of freedom got it? Ang concern ni Aunt ay ang 18th niChie kaya wala syang pakialam sa anumang gawin ni Chie ngayon."

"Seryoso?"

"Oo. Wag ka nang praning dyan. Why are we here?"

"Happy Monthsary!!!"

Yeah. Luckily I got a gift insde the car. di ako magaling mag alala ng dates kaya may gift palagi sa sasakyan ko para sa ganitong pagkakataon

"You forgot?" She asked irritatedly "me? Huh. Di no. Wait"

I went to the car and got my gift for her.

CHIENNA's POV

"Kath. Mean girl pala sa series nyo ni DJ ang role ko. OMG! ...  Aagawin ko si DJ sayo" i said the latter with mean girl tone

Biglang may nambatok sakin

"Am I not enough Chienna? After what we've been thru. Aagawin mo pa si DJ sa pinsan ko?"

It's alex pala okay. Kath Dj and I looked at each other and burst into laughter

"HAHAHAH you should have seen you face Alex. Dude nakakatawa. Chie congrats. You will be effective"

"Dj is right. Grabe cousin Kit, you are really funny. Chie is trying to portray her new role"

"Oo nga Lex, seloso ang Oink Oink ko. Uuuui" 

 "you guys are not funny."

He said with said with seriousness.

"Im sorry Oink. Ang OA mo kasi"

"Im sorry I just got scared you will choose someone over me"

I love this guy

"Never. I love you. Okay? What do you have for us?"

"I got you pizza. Let's eat"

"You two are really sweet. But I want that pizza" at biglang agaw ni Dj sa pizza. "Kasali ka din pala sa cast Pre? nakita ko kanina e. Hahaha."

"Whatever DJ. Anyways. I have to go. Kath ikaw na bahala kay Chie, bisita lang ako kina Alexa. Chie. Three days lang. Okay?"

So he is leaving me pala kaya pala may pa pizza sya. Lumabas muna ako sa veranda and he followed me

"Okay. Take care. Kahit three daysan lang di tayo magsama. Imagine since we meet again di pa tayo naghihiwalay. Maybe that is why you want to leave. Take your time" i do not know where those words came from, but what can i do? Nasabi ko na ang nasabi ko.

"Its not like that Chie, Alexa is my bestfriend, i haven't seen her for months. Syempre babawi lang ako sa tao. Kung ako lang gusto ko araw araw tayo magkasama hanggang forever masaya ako don"

"It's okay. Im sorry. I just cant take three days without you, im afraid"

"Dont be. I will be back. You can go with me"

"Nah. As much as i want to its your time with Alexa, i cant be selfish. Enjoy. Say Hi to Alexa for me okay?"

"Sure thing"

And of course he hugged me. "Alex pwede buksan itong isa pang box?" Dj shouted. Natawa na lang kami. Takaw Talaga. "Tara na sa loob mauubos yun" then alex and i headed back inside the house.

This is all I need. Happy friends.
