Strong (K.N)

Epilogue

Their story started because of a simple test. Dahil sa test na ito, the government marked them as the perfect match.

And when they first met Amethyst Bernardo Padilla did something embarrassing, she addressed her match 'DADDY'. And her innocence made Adam Louis Padilla lose control of his emotions. 

Parehas nilang binaliw ang isa't-isa, maraming nagdaang pagsubok but they stayed together. Sofia, the ex girlfriend came in and tried to break them apart. Pero ang mga salitang Borderline Personality Disorder lang pala ang makakapaghiwalay sa kanya. 

Natakot si Adam na masaktan niya si Amethyst dahil ditto, he had No Control of his emotions and that scared him. Higit pa dun he thought that he was being too dependent. So they decided to stay away from each other for a mean time. 

And after a year apart a lot has changed, they both grew in their own ways. Pero kahit sa isang taong lumipas they still found their way to each other. Starting over again wasn't easy, specially if maraming sikreto ang isa sa inyo. 

Adam was hesitant to tell Amethyst everything pero narealize niyang kaya niyang gawin ang lahat para lang hindi mawala si Amethyst sa tabi niya. 

 Then Sue and Jacob came in, both tried so hard to keep them apart. Pero parang wala lang ang mga subok nila dahil Amethyst and Adam stayed Strong because of each other's love.

"Athena Padilla!" Nakangti kong pinapanood ang mag-ina kong naghahabulan sa may garden naming dahil ayaw magpatali ng buhok ng anak ko. 

Natawa ako ng makitang napaupo ang three years old kong baby dahil mahaba ang suot niyang dress kaya naabutan siya ng mommy niya.

"Ikaw talagang bata ka, hindi ko alam kung kanino ka nagmana eh." Sermon ni Amethyst pero nakangiti naman ito. 

"Hayaan mo na baka dahil wala lang talagang hilig ang bata pagdating sa ganyan." Sali ko sa usapan nila kaya sabay silang napalingon sa akin. 

Kitang-kita ko ang resemblance ng dalawa Lalo na at sabay pa itong napangiti sa hindi ko malamang dahilan. Then I saw my wife whispering something to my daughter's ear at masaya naman itong tumango. 

Sabay na naman silang napatingin sa akin kaya nanlaki na ang mga mata ko at nagmamadaling tumayo. 

"Oh no, no." Tumakbo na ako palayo ng makitang mabilis nila akong hinahabol.

"Bakit? What did I do?!" Sigaw ko habang hinahabol nila ako, rinig na rinig ang tawa nila habang tumatakbo ako paakyat sa kwarto naming. 

"Hulihin si daddy!" Sigaw ni Amethyst at tinulak ako pahiga sa kama. Napatingin ako sa kanilang dalawa na nakaupo sa itaas ko. 

"Anong binabalak niyo?" Natatakot kong tanong at bigla na lang humalakhak ng maramdaman ko ang mga kamay nilang kinikiliti ako.

"Stop! Tama na please," Pakiusap ko habang gumugulong kakatawa.

I feel happy and contented with my life, ng mawala si Sue sa buhay naming tuloy-tuloy na ang masaya naming buhay. Kahit na minsan hindi kami magkasundong mag-asawa lalo na ng maipanganak si Athena.

Marami kaming hindi napagkakasunduan ni Amethyst sa paraan ng pagpapalaki sa anak naming, pero hanggang tampuhan na lang yun. 

We both make sure na hindi kami matutulog ng may tampo sa isa't-isa, and here we are. With our daughter na pabilis yata ng pabilis ang paglaki. 

I am Adam Padilla, the man who found his place in this world and that is beside Amethyst Padilla as her husband. And as Athena Padilla's father. 

This is the first half of my story ending, where  it all started of me having No Control over my emotions and ending with the love of this girl beside me, and that love made me Strong. 

As the first half ended my story will continue, this time I am going to be confident in anything that I am about to face, together with my family.
