Lonely

Second Chance

Weeks have passed, it's sunday. Magsisimba silang lahat na magkakapamilya, sabay kakain sa labas.

"Louis,tawagin mo na si Victoria at pupunta na tayo,kanin apa daw nandoon ang Wowa niyo"Greggy command to her "Okay po"She retorted.

Nagpunta ito sa kwarto ni Victoria,sakto namang kakatapos lang ni Victoria magbihis at palabas na ito"Buti naman nakabihis ka na ikaw nalang ang hinihintay"she said,dinaanan lang naman siya ni Victoria at hindi ito pinansin.

Nasa likod siya ni Victoria,Louis is wearing a white simple dress same with Victoria,but Victoria is wearing a red ribbon on her hair.

Irene is wearing a red skirt and long sleeves polo,nakatupi ito hanggang sa siko niya,with matching some necklace, she's wearing a black heels.

Greggy is wearing a simple polo and jeans.

Si Greggy ang magmamaneho ng kotse,magkatabi sila ni Irene sa harap habang ang kambal ay magkatabi sa likod nila. Pareho silang nasa magkabilang dulo ng upuan.

Hindi naman nagpapansinan ang dalawa,hindi nagkikibuan. Irene and Greggy looked at each other "What happened"Greggy whispered to Irene, Irene just shrugged her shoulders as an answer means she didn't know.

Minutes later,nakadating na sila,they went inside the church,magkaaksabay silang tatlo,nakasunod sakanila si Victoria.

"You're late"Imelda whispered "Sorry Mom"Irene replied as she kissed Imelda's cheeks. Victoria decided to sit beside her Tita Aimee,magkakatabi naman sila Irene, Greggy, Louis at Imelda. Nasa likod naman nila sila Imee, Bonget,Aimee and Victoria.

"Nanay Beth told me na umuwi kang lasing last week"sabi ni Aimee kay Victoria,nakatingin naman saknya sila Imee at Bonget"You're drinking alcohol na? You're just a minor. Anong ginawa sa'yo nila Irene at Greggy?"Imee asked

"Malamang napagalitan yan"sabi naman ni Bonget.

"Anong sabi sa'yo ni ate at ni kuya?"Aimee aksed with her calm voice"I don't remember na po eh,I was so so so drunk at that time"she answered shyly.

Aimee caressed her hair"Don't do that again ha? Lagot ka pag nalaman ni Mama Meldy yan,hindi ikaw yung mapapagalitan ang mommy at daddy mo"payo nito kay Victoria,she just nodded naman na at nakinig na sa misa.

After 1 and a half hours natapos na ang misa,nagbeso silqng sahat sa isa't isa.

"Kakain na!"Bonget said"So? Saan tayo kakain?"Imee asked"Sa chinese restaurant,sa may BGC"Imelda said,they all agree naman since ngayon lang sila ulit makakakain sa Chinese restaurant.

Sumabay na si Victoria kila Aimee habang sila Greggy naman ay sumakay sa kotse nila.

Nakadating na sila sa restaurant,they ordered some chinese foods.

Magkatabi si Victoria at Aimee, they're laughing and whispering. Para bang may sarili silang Mundo.

"Tiganan mo yung anak mo Irene,basta pag kasama si Aimee parang may sariling mga mundo"Imee whispered dahil katabi niya ito"Hayaan mo na ate,siya lang naman yung kasiyahan ngayon ni Victoria eh"she simply said.

"Tita,you told me na you're gonna teach me how to play drums noong nag visit kayo sa house but hindi ka naman dumadating"she said to Aimee"Chill, Tita is just busy. Bakit hindi ka magpaturo sa daddy mo? He knows how to play drums din naman ah"

"Ikaw gusto ko,laging busy ang daddy sa office eh"she said while getting some siomai using her chopsticks,Aimee laughed at her kasi nahihirapan itong gumamit ng chopsticks"Tita,can you help me to get this? Nauubusan na ako ng pasensya eh"sabi nito at napipikon na dahil hindi niya makuha ang siomai,they heard it kaya tumawa silang lahat, Victoria was embarrassed "Tita,pati ba naman ikaw?"she whispered to Aimee who is also laughing at her.
