"Excuse me sir. I came here politely and with respect. But now I don't think I can still have conversation with you. Still, It's nice of you to donated on our charity."

" If you have some concerns please just send it to this email." Ani ko at nilapag ang business card nang aming organization sa mesa.

Hindi ko hinahandle ang account na iyon, ibang kasamahan ko ang nagfa-facilitate non. I'm glad I brought it with me.

I got my things and stand up already.

"If you excuse me sir."

Agad akong umalis doon.

Hindi ko na nakita ang reaction niya dahil malabo ang paningin ko dahil sa mga pinipigilang luha. At nagpupunyagis na damdamin.

He was far from my Hades, my love.

I don't know he can spit words like that. I felt so insulted not only for myselft but also  para narin kay Val. I imagine her happily saying her plan about this. Just for Hades to call it bullshit.

Sumakay na ako sa sasakyan ni Calley.

Traffic ngayon and to be honest. Ngayon lang ako natuwa na traffic since I can wipe away my tears and cool myself down. I was spacing out a lot too.

Nasa parking  na ako nang condo ni Calley.  Here I am, trying to look like I didn't cry or  felt so devastated.

Umakyat na ako and see Calley on the living room. Laughing while holding her popcorn.

Nagtanggal ako ng heel at sinamahan  siyang manuod. Umupo ako sobrang lapit sa kanya and hug her. Napatigil naman siya sa tawa niya.

"Oh andito ka na pala. Ano nangyare?"
Taka niya.

"None, nothing happened. Pagod lang Calley." Matabang kong saad.

"Sus pero okay sabi mo e, pero kung ready kana,all ears ako." Ani niya quite worried pero pinagsawalang bahala nalang ang pag-yakap ko sa kanya.

"Calley, for years did you knew what happen to him?" Ani ko na nakayakap parin sa kanya. I was so curious about him, maybe because of his attitude on me just a while ago.

"Uhm." Ani niya na tila nag-i-isip pa.

"Well wala naman parang dati lang kaso hindi na siya ganon mabiro. Lalo na ako grabe medyo awkward narin samin. Iba na ang attitude ni Uncle. The growth ba." She said lightly, tila dahan dahan sa pananalita inaalam ang reaksyon ko.

"Do you think it was because of me?" nahihina kong sabi.

"Well, maybe? But you know what, to tell you honestly I salute your decision cause you both need it. Specially you. You are strong enough to end it." Naluluha na ako habang nakalublub sa dibdib niya.

"I'm sorry, I should be the one making you feel nice. And here I am, i'm now the one crying." I sobbed.

"No darling. I'm glad you can open up on me. See that's good to, since you can share you thoughts now. You became the better version of yourself." Inangat niya ang aking mukha.

Umiling-iling pa ito nang makita ang luha ko. Hindi ko namalayan na bumagsak na pala ang mga luha ko. She wipes it all.

"I'm proud of you okay. I'll always have your back whatever your decision is, hmm?"

"Thank you, Calley. Me too, talk to me, tell me what you need."

Natahimik kaming dalawa. Kumalma din ako after minutes.

"So how about you? Ang dami mong utang saking chismiss. Kelan kayo nag meet ni kuya Isaiah ha?" Ani ko ang pabirong nilisik ang mata.

Napangiti pa ang gaga.
