Chapter 20
"Wow! All in one!" wika ni Gregory nang matapos niyang in-explore ang buong building. "Ang yaman niyo talaga, Miss!"
Napailing ako. "Sila lang ni Mama at Papa. Hindi ako mayaman."
Nakaupo kami ngayon sa sahig dito sa may parte ng dance studio. Lumabas naman si Kairos at nagpaalam na kunin ang mga gamit na nasa loob ng sasakyan niya.
"Tumahimik ka nga, Gregory! Para kang bata kung umasta. You should act your age!" sita naman ni Ate Jade.
Umirap naman si Greg. "Pake mo ba? Buhay ko 'to. My age, my rules!" parang batang sagot niya at ininis pa lalo si Ate Jade sa pamamagitan ng pagtakbo-takbo sa paligid. Napatampal tuloy sa noo si Ate Jade at hinayaan nalang si Gregory sa trip niya. Natawa naman ako sa bangayan nilang dalawa.

It was uncomfortable sitting in the car. Ate Jade and James were busy snuggling and flirting with each other while I was beside them. Hindi ko inasahang may ganitong side si Ate Jade. Siguro ganoon talaga kapag in love, 'no? Nalalabas ang hindi mo inakalang meron ka pala. Masaya naman ako para kay Ate Jade kahit kulang na lang ay mapisa ako dahil kinain na ng mga pwet nila ang upuan dito sa likod. Sometimes, James' arm would rub against mine, whether be intentionally or not. Every time our arms would rub against each other, he would look at me and smile. I would only smile and look outside to mind my own business. "I miss you," Kairos said on the phone. "Sorry, hindi kita nasabayan sa pag-uwi kanina. It's just that..." Umiling ako at ngumiti kahit hindi niya naman kita 'yon. "Don't

Kinabukasan, napabangon ako sa kama nang biglang pumunta sa kwarto ko si Gregory at sinabing nasa baba si Kairos. Muntikan pa akong madulas sa tiles ng bathroom, buti nalang at naging mabilis ang reflexes ko. Pagkatapos kong maligo ay nagbihis ako ng desenteng damit na pambahay, a loose t-shirt and a black shorts. I dried my hair first before I went out of my room to meet Kairos who was in the living area. Sumilay ang ngiti sa labi ko nang nakita ko si Kairos na nakaupo sa single couch, kausap niya ang mga magulang ko na nakaupo naman sa long couch. Nahinto ako sa paglapit dahil nagtanong si Papa. "So, you'll be taking my daughter out today?" Papa asked. Tumango naman si Kairos. "Yes, Sir."

"Yes, Lilianna. We know each other...a lot." Hindi maalis sa isipan ko ang mga katagang iyon hanggang sa bumalik ako sa room ko. I was curious as to how and why did they know each other. Were they enemies? Were they best of friends? I want to know. Should I ask Mama? But then again, the last interaction I had with my mother was... not good. Bumuntong-hininga ako at binagsak ang sarili sa malambot na kama ng hotel room. Napanguso ako nang nakaramdam ako ng gutom. Hindi ako nakakain nang maayos doon dahil hindi ako kumportable sa pinag-uusapan nila buong oras. All they talked about was... Kairos being tied to Isla. Sa tuwing napapatingin ako kay Ate Jade ay puno ng pag-aalala ang mga mata niya. Ngingitian ko siya para ipaalam sa kaniya na okay lang ako. Come to think of it... Hindi naman talaga ako dapat mangamba o kahit anong masamang pakiramdam dahil ako naman ang mahal ni Kairos... and I believe when he said he only wants to m

"Someone will fetch you there, Lilianna," I remembered what Mama said as we arrived at Mactan-Cebu International Airport's parking lot. "Someone important to you.""Who?" I remembered asking her and looked at my father who was smiling.Mama smiled in a timid manner. "You'll find out once you get there."And she was indeed right. Someone was waiting for me to arrive in Arkansas... and it was my childhood friend, Ruairi. Ruru, in other names. I was the one who made that nickname for him. It was cute.Sa galak ko ay mabilis kong tinakbo ang distansiya naming at agad siyang niyakap nang mahigpit. My tears actually fell because of the happiness I've felt that day. God, I remembered how I said that I've missed hi

Pagkatapos ng halos isang araw na paglipad ng eroplano ay nakarating na kami sa Pilipinas, sa wakas. Sobrang lapad ng ngiti ni Ruairi habang nakasakay kami ng taxi papunta sa bagong bili niyang dalawang condo unit sa ciudad ng Makati. Nagulat pa ako noong sinabi niyang sa akin daw 'yong isang binili niya. Syempre tinanggihan ko kasi kahit palagi ko siyang sinusungitan, may hiya pa rin naman ako sa katawan. Pero ang loko hindi tinanggap ang pagtanggi ko."Tanggapin mo! Para naman hindi sayang 'yong ginastos ko para sa condo mo."Napahawak ako sa dibdib ko. "Wow! Para namang ako pa ang nag-utos sa'yo na bilhan mo ako ng isang mamahaling condo sa Makati!"Tinawanan lang ako ng gago. Napabuntong-hininga lamang ako. Pwede naman akong mangupa sa mga maliliit na apartme

I was not yet done processing what Ruairi just said when he shamelessly announced another thing that made me more dumbfounded than usual."Keo's the CEO of Matchless Furniture, and yes! He's the friend I'm talking to you about. He will also help me with my growing dance school and..."What in the world...Awkward lamang akong nakatayo roon habang nakatitig sa mga kamay ni Kairos na nakalahad sa harapan ko.I felt my hand tremble, contemplating whether I accept his gesture or not. I breathed heavily as I slowly raised my hand to meet his."Lilianna Vera," I introduced myself even though we knew each other all too well.

Hindi kami natagalan sa kalsada dahil hindi naman traffic papunta sa Minglanilla. Throughout the ride, I was amazed because of how things changed and improved. May malaking bridge na rin na papatapos na sa may SRP! It was an amazing sight even though it's not yet finished.My heart fastened its speed when we entered the gates of Midori Plains Subdivision. My parents didn't know that I'm already in Cebu and is about to see them. I bet my father's disappointed at me after that call because I did not "come back".Nakaupo lamang si Zoey sa passenger seat habang nakabukas ang pintuan nito. Si Gregory naman ay nakatayo sa gilid niya na may dalang payong, prinoprotektahan ang asawa sa sinag ng araw. Ako naman ay nakatayo sa harap ng gate. Pinindot ko ang doorbell at ilang segundo pa ang lumipas bago nagbukas ng pintuan ng bahay. I b

I know I should be home by now given that it's almost 9 PM since I left but I didn't want to be home. I wanted to be somewhere. May naisip agad akong lugar kung saan ako makakatambay at agad minaneho ang bike patungo roon.I parked the bike near the building my parents bought for me when I turned nineteen. Thankfully, I always brought the keys with me. I opened the two-way door and closed it when I got inside. Nilagay ko ang helmet sa may kitchen counter at inayos ang buhok kong medyo basa dahil biglang umulan nang mahina habang nasa kalsada ako. I rested my body on the sofa when I heard my phone beep.From: MamaWhere are you? It's already nine.I typed in my reply.
