Only Fools (Completed)

36

Dinala si Thirdy sa isang bahay, vacant and abandoned. Pagpasok nila natuwa si Bea when she saw kung gaano kalawak ang lawn.

"Sa isang client ito, gusto nya irestore."

"Bakit mo ako dinala dito?"

"Because I need your input, your ideas."

"I don't work for you anymore simula kahapon."

"You never worked for me, Bea."

Natawa si Bea.

Habang pinapakita ni Thirdy ang mansion, kwinento nya kay Bea ang story behind the house.

"Isang famous doctor ang may ari nito who fell in love with a neighbor. Ung babae mahilig sa bulaklak at ginamit nyang reason un para parati magpunta ung babae dito.Sadly, ung doctor naging busy sa ambitions nya, naging workaholic hanggang nawala na sya ng time, ung babae napakasal na sa iba."

"Robot din pala sya katulad mo."

Tinawanan lang sya ni Thirdy.

"Tara na, ayusin natin to. Tell me what needs to be done."

They entered the house pati ung malaking garden pinagusapan nila. Bea shared her ideas with Thirdy, hanggang dumating na sila sa last room.

"Bakit mo ako tinawagan?" Tanong ni Bea sa kanya.

He looked at her, his eyes sparkling.

"To see you. It's still not going to end."

"Um-oo ka na ba kay Julia?"

Thirdy looked away.

"So, sa tingin mo dapat oo ang sagot ko sa kanya? I'm really interested in what you have to say."

"I think that is expected."

"Ano na plano mo?"

"Nag apply na ako sa mga universities, here and abroad."

"Abroad? Bakit ayaw mo tanggapin tulong ko sa scholarship?"

"Ayoko," she gently said. "Sabi mo nga I disrespected you since that day I came and kissed you. Naalala mo ba? So inaayos ko na. I only wish you and Julia happiness."

"Bea, you don't have to leave."

"I have to."

"Bakit?"

"Kasi gusto ko." She was already teary-eyed so she turned her back to see the view of the room. Nung mapigilan na nya ang luha nya, humarap sya ulit kay Thirdy.

"Bakit mo ba ako pinipigilan umalis?"

"Ganun ba talaga kalaki galit mo sa akin, hindi mo talaga mahintay na makalayo ka sa akin?"

"You'll never really understand me, huh, Thirdy? I won't work for you, anymore. I can't. I want to live my life, too."

"Okay, fine. Then I want to thank you for everything that you've done. You have reunited me with Julia, ibig sabihin, na accomplish mo ang mission mo."

"I'm grateful to you din, Thirdy. You helped me get through the weeks that I can never forget."

"Come here," Thirdy said and he gave her a hug.
