Epilogue 1

"Tss, why are you staying for a guy like that, he always does the guilt tripping." Riley commented.

"Get one in my room, but don't return it, I don't like other people using my things." Xandro added.

"I'll pay," she said with a smile. How can this angel be treated less of what she deserves, right, she settled with that. Ano bang nakita niya sa lalaking 'yon? Mukhang santo na nasa loob ang kulo.

My whole family was also invited in their annual Christmas party, one of her cousin in the Ynarez side was my former classmate. Sa unang kamustahan pa lang ang dami ko ng nakuhang impormasyon.

"I'm surprised the Montefalco's accepted him," Angel, her cousin said. "I can't pinpoint why I'm not particularly fond of him."

"Why?" I asked. "Mukhang in love na in love 'yang pinsan mo."

"In love? Sixteen lang sila noon, I doubt paano sila tatagal na ganyan ang lalaki. Mag-take ata ng law si Trina, si Troy sure med, sa taas ng pride ng lalaki, mapupuno din 'yang si Trina."

I hope so! Tss. Sa akin ang dali niya maasar, ngumisi lang ako minsan, iniirapan na niya ako.

Bumalik ako sa mesa namin, magkakasama silang tatlo, at kasama nila ang asungot na boyfriend. I sat beside Xandro. Nagulat ako noong tumayo 'yongg Troy at sinundan naman ni Trina. What the fuck?!

"Parang tanga!" Si Rylie na pinapakalma ni Yca.

"Napa'no sila?" Kunyari hindi ako apektado dahil nakasimangot kanina si Trina. Kung pwede lang suntukin ang kumag niyang boyfriend ginawa ko na.

"Gago talaga 'yang Troy na 'yan! Si Trina na nag-magandang loob na mag-offer ng scholarship para sa med ni Troy, minasama pa ng kumag na 'yon!" Sabi ni Xandro. Sinundan ko ng tingin ang dalawa na pinapanood ang pagtatalo ni Trina at ni Troy.

"Uwi na ako," paalam niya. "Xandro, hatid mo ako? Wala pa 'yong driver."

"Asan 'yong kumag mo?" Tanong ng kapatid ko.

"Can you stop saying 'kumag'. Umalis na siya, may emergency sa bahay."

"I don't believe you," Rylie interrupted. "Nandito naman ang daddy niya."

Kami ni Xandro ang naghatid sa kanya sa bahay nila. Pinagmamasdan ko siya gamit ang salamin. Her eyes will release tears, surely, if we'd ask for more.

"Sino ba daddy ni Troy?" Tanong ko.

"'Yong head ng security nila Trin," sagot ni Xandro. "Bakit?"

"Wala naman," sagot ko. "Sure law school na siya?"

"Yeah, after boards nila ni Ry."

I was so happy for her when she passed her boards, kung pwede ko lang siyang yakapin ginawa ko na.

"Congrats, baby!" Marco greeted her.

"Thank you, Kuya!" She hugged him back.

"Congrats, baby! Galing naman." Kuya Gerard also hugged her.

Pinili kong batiin siya noong mag-isa siyang nakatanaw sa pool nila. I coughed, for her to notice me, she was serenely watching the sky above.

"Congrats, Bella!" I uttered, niyakap ko siya bago pa siya makapagsalita. Wala naman siyang ibang reaksyon

"Thank you, Kuya!"
