TM 18 - wrong memory

  Lucas' P.O.V.
"E, sorry nadamay ka ni Lorraine , it was me who was her target to be ruin but it happened to be you, I am really sorry"sabi ni Maxine kay Elise.

"it's not your fault , M, It was me who got drunk"Elise said in a coarse voice , namamaga ang mga mata nito , tanda ng kanyang pag-iyak.

"what happen ,E, bakit andito si Jace sa city? , I thought he was assigned at the town.how come na andito siya , and why the hell did you kiss him?"sunod sunod na sabi ni Maxine.
"I don't know , M, I don't know!!! basta naka salubong ko siya kanina sa bar, that kiss was an accident, I was just......
.
.

.Drunk"sabi ni Elise.

"Jace is here for business, last week he file a letter of discharge ,alam mo namang ayaw ng dad ni Jace na maging sundalo siya Di ba? and besides, Kath and Jace cooled off"sabi ko.tiningnan naman ako ng masama ni Maxine.

"you knew??? and you never bother to tell me!!"naiinis na saad ni Maxine . nagkibit balikat lang ako .

"you didn't ask and besides I don't keen on prying others life." sabi ko.

"ay! ewan ko sayo!"sabi ni Maxine at inirapan ako.

"but why did you kiss him , E.??"I ask.

"Because I love him since then, and because I was drunk"sabi ni Elise.

"WHAT????!!! YOU LOVE YOUR SISTER'S EX-LOVER????"magkapanabayang sigaw namin ni Maxine.tiningnan ko naman si Maxine.
"I thought you knew"I said to her inirapan naman niya ako. bakit ba ang mga babae mahilig manga-irap?

"well, obviously I don't,kaya nga nagtatanong diba?"sabi niya.napansin ko na tila natahimik si Elise .

"are you alright , Elise?"tanong ko.
"Tell me , Maxine , have you recovered all your memory?"biglang tanong niya sa future wife ko at nilapitan niya pa ito at niyugyog.
"I think so"sabi ni Maxine at nag-iwas tingin.
"liar! you know ,you haven't yet, Maxine, alam kong alam mo yun"sabi ni Elise.
"yeah right"Maxine said at lumayo kay Elise.
"hanggang saan lang ang naalala mo sa akin?"Elise ask.
"you were my bestfriend, sister of Kathlea, bestfriend of Jace, neighbor of lucas, you are brave and you don't cry because of a guy or just because of this simple problem" Maxine said to Elise.
"your memory are treacherous M, it is not me you are remembering , that was Ayumi, our other friend"Elise bago sumilay ang mapakla niyang ngiti.
"no wonder you hurried to come here. hindi naman pala ako na bestfriend mo ang naalala mo, it was her all along, dahil ang ako na kilala mo noon ay ang weakest sa barkada , ako yung laging umiiyak dahil Kay Jace, dahil nagkatampuhan kami ni Kathlea and when you get mad at me, every single thing iniiyakan ko.That is the reason why everytime I call you and I am crying you just pamper me through your words at phone, pero never kang pumunta sa akin o sa condo ko kapag umiiyak ako"mapait ang ngiting sabi ni Elise. yes! that's the Elise I knew also, noon lagi lagi ko siyang nahuhuling nakikipag-usap sa buwan habang umaagos ang mga luha niya.sa university namin noon eventhough she's a princess she was bullied and she would just cry.ibang-iba noong nagpalit sila ni Maxine ng katauhan, because Maxine is really fierce and she's very persistent.

"I can't blame you for kissing the man you have ever love , E, but I am not tolerating you also. hindi mali ang magmahal kahit pa sabihing may mahal ng ibang babae ang lalaking minamahal mo , pero E, hanggang kaya mo pigilan mo .don't focus with just Jace, Date around! masyado kang maganda para mabaliw sa isang lalaki. explain everything to Kathlea , I am sure she'll understand"saad ni Maxine kay Elise.
" now your like the old Maxine, mas mature nga lang ngayon.hahahah"sabi ni Elise na kahit may luha pa ay nagawa ng tumawa. ...

nagkaroon ng sandaling usapan ang dalawang babae habang ako ay tahimik lang na nakatitig sa babaeng mahal ko. they are wearing the same dress and acting the same , but my eyes is settled to someone who stole my heart in just a smile. Maya-maya pa ay nagpaalam na si Maxine kay Elise. We were both silent inside the car, well it is because Di talaga ako madaldal and Maxine is soundly sleeping . napagod Ata.

WEEKS PASSED.

"Wife , yung coffee ko."sigaw ko ,bahala na ang mga makarinig sa akin.maya-maya ay nakabusangot na pumasok si Maxine sa office.
"kailangan talagang pangalandakan na asawa mo ako, where in the fact , Di pa kita pinapakasalan? sakalin kita e!"naiinis niyang saad at inilapag ang coffee ko.
"and so? we're getting married anyway, bakit ba may nanliligaw bakit sayo na gusto mong ipalit sa akin?"naiirita ko ring wika at sinimsim ang Kape bago muling inilapag.
"Aiiiisshhh!!!"naiinis niyang ginulo ang buhok niya tapos kinuha ang coffee ko na nakalapag sa mesa saka uminom doon. napatanga naman ako sa ginawa niya.
"what?"naiinis pa rin niyang tanong.
"you sip on my coffee"sabi ko.
"alam ko,'nu akala mo sa'kin? boplaks??!"saad niya. nangingiting napailing nalang ako.
"you didn't get it .did you?"nakangiti kong sabi sa kanya.
"get what?"tanong niya.
"you sip on my coffee exactly where I also sip. an indirect kiss just happen , wife" nakangiti kong saad.shet!!! sinong may sabing babae lang ang kinikilig, sasapakin ko talaga!
namumula namang nag-iwas ng tingin si Maxine.
"So? were getting married anyway"panggagaya niya sa sinabi ko kanina.
"right! we're getting married anyway it does not matter "sabi ko at uminom sa kapeng tinimpla niya ng hindi nilulubayan ng mata ko ang mata niya and I even notice how she gulp. is it just me or talagang sumarap ang kape?(hahaha rhyme?).I smirk at her.
"you know what I know something better that could make my cell alive aside from coffee, this"I said at hinila siya sa batok saka hinalikan .shock na shock si Maxine sa nangyari but later on she responded to my kisses making the room temperature hotter. naka-on naman ang Air-con.I stop the kiss though it's difficult.
"as much as I wanna take you, I wanna make you mine on our first night. kaya Maxine lumabas kana, don't make this hard for me"I said.
"ikaw itong nanghahalik e, tapos ako sisihin , sakalin kaya kita"sabi ni Maxine bago lumabas ng office ko.
