Hindi alam ni Chase kung anong gagawin, his mind was in a daze, his damned phone kept on ringing so he threw it away, wala na siyang pake.
All this time..? Nakakagago isipin na he thought Ara was fooling around with his friend and it turns out that all this time she was helping his family, to make him whole again. So that's what she mean.
He needs to go to Ara, and he did.
Napadpad siya sa bahay ng mga Saavedra.
"ARA!" sigaw niya mula sa gate.
"Ara please! Lets talk! I'm sorry!," sigaw niya ulit.
And there she is, Ara...
"Ara! Let me explain, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," paulit-ulit na bigkas ni Chase habang niyayakap si Ara.
"C-Chase... I'm not Ara, I'm her twin sister," anito.
"W-What?,"
"Sinabi niya na raw sayo diba? I'm Yra, her twin sister,"
"A-asan.. si Ara?,"
"She didn't told you? Nasa airport na siguro sila ngayon ni Papa, they're leaving to Vancouver," anito.
Chase was in shock.
They're leaving?
No! He can't let her leave! Not without saying sorry.
Agad na pumasok si Chase sa sasakyan niya at pinaharurot ito papunta ng airport.
——
"Bro, why is Chase taking so long?," tanong ni Mark.
"I don't know, I've been contacting him, pero wala," ani Hermes.
"Bolt, can you track him or something?," tanong ni Collin.
Bolt cracks his knuckles.
"I'm not sure but I'll try," anito tsaka binuksan ang kanyang laptop.
Bolt wore his glasses na ginagamit niya lang pag tinatamad mag contact lens and 10 Thorns watched him do his thing.
His fingers was so fast typing on the keys.
And minutes later he pressed one last key before saying "found him!"
"So, it was kinda hard looking for him, I tried to track him phone and it looks like it's broken or something, but I checked sa mga cctvs ng mga roads and saw him throw his phone away," anito.
"Where was he heading?,"
"Since he used his other car, yung may nakalagay na tracker, I found him, he's going to the airport," dagdag ni Bolt.
"Let's follow him," ani Yam at sinundan naman ng lahat.
——
Tinignan ni Ara ang malaking screen sa airport.
Malapit na pala ang flight nila papuntang Vancouver.
"Ara, are you alright?," tanong ng ama sakanya na puno ng pagaalala.
"Yes pa, I'm just a little tired," anito.
"You can sleep on the plane, sorry, the private jet was broken, so I just booked the first class tickets I can find," anang Ama.
"It's totally fine, pa," anito tsaka ngumiti.
Minutes later Ara heard a voice speaking that is saying that their flight is up.
——
After a frustrating time of traffic, Chase finally arrives. Hoping that it's not too late. Please.
Tinakbo niya ang malaking airport.
Pagpasok niya tinignan niya ang screen.
Shit.
Nakita niya na marami nang pasaherong nakapila.
Is that their flight?
Tinakbo niya iyon, wala na siyang pake.
"Ara!," sigaw niya. Pinagtitinginan na siya ng tao pero di niya iyon pinansin.
Sinigaw niya pa ang pangalan ni Ara ng paulit-ulit hanggang sa may humawak sa balikat niya.
Akala niya mga guwardiya na ito upang paalisin niya but then it felt like he suddenly saw the light.
It was Ara.
Hinay-hinay bumaba si Chase para lumuhod.
"I-I'm sorry... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I already know what happened, I'm sorry I wrongly accused you, I'm sorry I doubted you," she said while still kneeling and looking at the ground.
Ara suddenly kneeled also and faced him.
"It's fine, tapos na iyon, I forgive you," Why is she like this? Why is it so easy to forgive
"Please.. come back to me.. please?,"pagmamakaawa ni Chase.
"I'm sorry, yes, I forgive you, but just for the sake of my inner peace, ayokong umalis ng pilipinas na may dalang sakit, Yes, I forgive you, but I'm sorry because I'll never forget. I'm ready to get hurt again Chase, pero wag muna ngayon, wag muna. Ayoko rin na maranasan lahat ng sakit ulit,"
"A-Ara... I'm sorry, I was wrong. Please..." loud sobs escaped Chase's lips.
"Okay na sakin yun, don't be too hard on yourself. Thank you for everything. Okay?,"
"I'm sorry Chase, I know I'm the one who let go, but know na hindi mo iyon kasalanan, it was us. We were in the relationship together but it just didn't work. Yes, I forgave you, pero yung sakit Chase, sariwa pa, forgiving is not the sign of healing but moving on is,"
Ara caressed Chase's face one last time.
"Goodbye, Chase," anito tsaka tumayo at pumunta na sa kanyang ama.
Chase was still crying while kneeling down.
He didn't looked back at Ara, he can't.
He thought she'd come back, and change her mind.
But it was just his fantasy that is now far from being a reality.
"Chase!," sigaw ng mga kaibigan niya.
