CHAPTER 33: Elmo wants an annulment from Julie

continuation……

Matapos kumanta ng banda kasama si Alden, ay bumaba na ng stage si Alden at agad na nilapitan sila Julie at Maqui….. She taps Julie’s  shoulder at napa-tingin naman si Julie (na tila mugto ang mga mata nito dahil kakatapos lang lumuha) kay Alden…and Alden just give Julie a weak smile at sabay umupo ito sa tabi ni Julie…

ALDEN: hey…. thanks huh for watching my friend's band performance…. (smiled)

JULIE: (tumingin kay Alden) thank you din Alden. (weak smile)

ALDEN: (tumingin kay Julie) no, just a piece of advice Jules, All you really have to do is to convince yourself that you shouldn’t waste your time with someone who can’t even love you back.

JULIE: (tumingin kay Alden) ganun din ba yung ginawa mo kaya ka naka-move-on?

ALDEN: (chuckled) sabi ko nga sa sarili ko e, ‘Hey, I’m a great guy, and if you can’t see that, then, that’s your loss, not mine!’ (smiled) yabang ko noh? (chuckled)

JULIE: (weak smile) dapat lang naman na magkaroon ka ng konting pride sa sarili mo sa ganong pagkakataon.

ALDEN: siguro din, dapat ganon ka rin kay Elmo. (smiled)

JULIE: (Tumingin kay Alden at napa-iwas rin sya ng tingin agad)

ALDEN: (naka-tingin kay Julie) you’re not even trying to get over him……are you?

JULIE: (tumingin kay Alden and just sighed)

ALDEN: Jules, alam mong ipinaglaban ko rin ang love ko sa’yo dati di ba? But I let you go……not because Letting go means giving up…. but, rather, it’s accepting that there’s just things that cannot be. (nakatingin kay Julie)

JULIE: (napa-tingin kay Alden sa mga sabi nito)

ALDEN: …..you know, some people think, that it’s letting go of them makes ones strong but, sometimes (weak smile)…..sometimes it’s actually letting go… (nakatingin kay Julie)

JULIE: (napa-yuko at tumingin kay Alden and let go a deep sigh and gave Alden a weak smile) thanks Alden…

ALDEN: (gave Julie a weak smile and taps her shoulder) thanks ladies… thanks for coming ah.. I'll just go and help my friends there…(smiled at Julie&Maqui)

……then Alden left the two(Julie&Maqui)

MAQ: (tumingin kay Julie at nag-smirk) ano? Tinamaan ka ba sa sinabi ni Alden?

JULIE: (nag-kibit-balikat) ewan ko Maq…. Kaya nga ko sumama dito e para makalimutan si Moe….pero mas lalo ko lang syang naalala…. (sighed)

MAQ: (nakatingin kay Julie) haaaynako Julie Anne, (kumunot ang noo) hopeless case ka na nga talaga… (umiling) pati ‘ko e, nadadala sa’yo e..

JULIE: (sighed) 

KINABUKASAN….. It’s around 11:30AM ng hinihintay ni Elmo na lumabas si Lauren sa condo building nito….. [SETTING: naka-tayo lang habang naka-sandal si Elmo sa SUV nyang naka-park sa parking lot ng condo building ni Lauren at tila may na-isip at naalala habang hinihintay nyang lumabas si Lauren….]
