Franzine's Pov.
Nandito na kami sa bahay.
Sir Sandro, and Jeremiah's with me and my Yaya.
Pinadala ko muna si Jeremiah sa Room ng Kuya ko Since wala naman natutulog don.
My Yaya's in my Kuya's room, hinihilamusan si Jeremiah, while sir and i are here sa sala.
Nakaupo lang.
And till now, tulala pa rin ako.
Parang napakadumi ko sa nangyare.
I feel so uncomfortable everytime ngayon.
'Don't worry, you'll be ok.' he said.
He put his palm in my back and it rubs it.
'Take a shower and Change your clothes.' he said.
Why it seems like alam na alam niya kung ano dapat kong gawin.
'Go.' he said and he stood me up.
My yaya came down.
Nagkasalubungan kami sa hagdan.
"Tell me what happened earlier, later.' she whispered at sinamahan muna si sir.
Sandro's Pov.
I just let Franzine na maligo at magbihis, now i'm waiting her nalang na matapos para magpaalam ng umuwi.
Her Yaya sits beside me naman.
'Hello.' she sweetly said.
I give her smiles.
'I thought you was her friend, boss ka pala niya.' she said.
I chuckled.
'Isn't it obviously po kase to someone like her, mayaman then she has a boss.'
I said.
'Being a Rich person isn't issue to her, if only you knew her, magugulat ka nalang about her personalities and who she is.' she said.
I smiled.
'Sino po ba talaga si Franzine?' tanong ko sakanya.
'She's just a normal girl, a simple girl, ewan ko nga bakit siya nagtatrabaho as a secretary lang.' she said.
I wondered about that too.
'She's really not belong in ilocanos, in other country, in other places; makati, Baguio talaga siya belong. Sabi ng nanay niya she just moved here for a very important reason.' she said.
I have no idea about that very special reason.
Naguguluhan pa rin ako sayo Franzine.
Hindi pa nga talaga kita kilala.
'So you're a Marcos pala, Ano mo si PFM?' she said.
Pfm? Ah President Ferdinand Marcos.
'He's my Dad.' i said.
Then politician ka rin siguro.' she said
I just nod my head.
Runs in blood ata talaga.
'Kawawa naman yung bata.' she suddenly said.
'Jeremiah po?' pagclarify ko.
She nod her head.
'May heart failure din kase yung ate niya kagaya nung pinsan ni Franzine.'
She said.
So she has a cousin who has Heart failure.
'Kamusta naman po yung pinsan niya?' i asked.
'Minsan ok, minsan hindi, but almost of the time, she's always loosing her breath, and she's also fighting naman.'
She said.
'Hanga nga ako dun, for almost 5, 6 years ata dala dala niya yung hirap.' she added.
'She consulted?' i said.
'Yes, ang dami nang tumangin, but now her doctor is her sister.' she said.
Nice, libre yun ah.
But i know it also hard for her sister dahil nakikita niyang nahihirapan yung kapatid niya.
'Franzine?' someone shouted sa taas.
'That's Jeremiah for sure.' her Yaya said at umakyat nalang kami sa taas papunta sa kwarto kung nasan siya.
We stopped here sa may malapit sa Pintuan at tinitignan lang sila.
He's with Franzine.
They look Perfect together.
Her yaya chuckled.
'They're now starting catching feelings' she whispered.
Wow catching feelings.
'Bakit po?' tanong ko sakanya.
'He's Franzine first heart break.' she said.
May pa "sorry, my feelings faded that fast." Pa si Franzine.
First heart break niya naman pala.
Tama pala hinala ko, there's something between them in their past.
'I thought they're just friends.' i said.
'Franzine's the one who fell first, ngayon si Jeremiah naman.' she said.
I chuckled.
What's that, taguan feelings?
Seems like Franzine's happy naman being single.
'I don't think Franzine would like to enter a relationship.' i said.
'You're not sure, baka hindi mo alam, love is unexpected.'
She said.
I didn't heard that from anyone.
Maybe.
Franzine suddenly caught us.
' pasok po kayo.' she said to us.
Pumasok naman yung yaya niya, and i stayed here sa pinto lang.
'Sir, may Couch po dito.' she said and look at me.
'Ah no, i'll go ahead.' i said.
'Ayaw nyo po munang magpahinga?' she said and she stood up.
She approach me and says her thank youssss.
'wag ka na munang pumasok bukas, take a rest.' i said.
'cause i know she needs rest and peace of minds, hindi ko naman siya mabibigyan nun.
Sakit ng ulo pwede pa.
'Ok lang po?' she asked.
'Ofcourse, like i said just take a rest, don't think too much about what happened earlier.' i said at tinapik yung balikat niya.
'Sige na, it's getting late, i'll drive pa. Just, just say my goodbye to them' i said and i give her smiles.
Pababa na ako ng hagdan nila, and i noticed she's following me.
Ihahatid pa ata ako sa labas.
I suddenly stopped and faced her.
Nakayuko siya.
Dirediretso lang siyang bumababa at nabunggo ako.
We almost fell.
Buti nalang i catch her at nakahawak sa hawakan ng hagdanan.
My arm is on her waist.
'Sorry sir.' she said and i stand her.
Tulala parin siya.
'You okay?' i asked.
She nod her head.
Nakatayo lang siya at nakatingin sakin.
'You don't need na ihatid ako, let's go, hatid nalang kita sakanila.' i said and i cary her pabalik sa kwarto kung nasan sila Jeremiah and her Yaya is.
After that, umalis na ako.
It's already 11pm nang makabalik ako sa bahay.
I saw my Mom, Dad, Si and Vinny there sa sala.
'Happy birthday kuya.' they said.
'Come here.' my mom said.
I approached her and Give her kiss sa cheek.
'What's up.' i said.
'Did you enjoy it?' she asked.
I just raised my eyebrows and nod my head.
Honestly, i liked it, but I didn't enjoy it.
Having a birthday celebration without the person you want to be isn't enjoyful.
'Ok, i'll rest na.' i said.
Patayo na sana ako but my Dad speak.
'Stay for a while.' he said.
'Were going to Baguio tomorrow, let's celebrate your birthday at lunch there, join us.' he added.
So brave.
Baka ipapakilala niya lang talaga yung babae niya kila Vinny kaya pupunta kami don with the fam.
'I have a lot of things to do.' dahilan ko sakanya.
'Except of looking for Jillianne, ano pa?' he said.
'Heto nanaman.' i suddenly said.
Lagi nalang niyang sinasali sa usapan yung tao.
Isali ko rin kaya yung babae niya
'Do you want to talk about girls?' paghamon ko sakanya.
'Sandro, were just asking if you'll join.' pagtigil ni Mom.
She looked at Vinny and Si.
Napatingin nalang din ako sakanila.
They don't know what's our Problem, gusto ko na ngang sabihin sakanila eh.
But i just thinking about my Mom, i know she don't want us na magalit kay Dad tho nasasaktan na siya because of him.
I can see her sadness in her eyes para saming dalawa ni Dad.
Kasalanan din naman ni Dad kung bakit kami naging ganito.
'Susunod ako after my schedule.' i said to her.
'Thanks for the Celebration Mom, i appreciate it.' i said and i hugged her before i left them.
Im already at my Room, nakahiga na.
So Tired.
Tired of Everything.
The next day.
I woke up 9am.
I just get my phone and check some updates.
Some greetings from Facebook, twitter, ig ang bumungad.
I read those messages from Fans, and i thanks for those efforts they did.
Birthday ko pala, I can't feel it.
I just take a shower at nagbihis na.
Pumunta muna ako sa Office to check some schedules, at wala naman.
Pumunta nalang ako kay Matt and i help him to distribute some ayudas.
"Nandito rin po pala ang ating Birthday Boy, na fresh na fresh pa, may date ka ba?' he suddenly said in his speech.
Nakakahiya Matthew.
Pinagkalat pa talaga na birthday ko.
Baka magexpect yung mga tao na magpapahanda ako.
'Huy, may date ka ba?' he said.
Umiling lang ako.
Pwede naman siyang magtanong mamaya after his speech, sinasadya niya lang talagang iparinig sa mga tao.
After that, ako naman pinagspeech niya.
I just said my Normal speech.
Suddenly there's a guy who shouted
"Anong oras ang inuman"
And i suddenly got laughed.
Hindi na ata nila ako kilala bilang Marcos eh, kilala na nila ako bilang matakaw sa alak.
'Anytime apo, basta gastos ay sainyo.'
I said.
And the ilocanos laughed.
Now i know, ilocano talaga ako.
'cause i'm that kuripot.
A minutes passed, at we distributed it to all of them na.
I said my Good bye to Matt at Umuwi nalang muna sa bahay.
I'm the only one who's here.
Na sa Baguio na ata sila.
Am thinking twice pa kung pupunta ako don.
Baka away lang maabutan ko dun with Dad eh.
But for Mom, i'll come.
I rest here muna ng kaunti and after that, tumawag na ako ng private plane.
Sumunod na ako, and after that, i already arrived in Baguio.
It's 11;40 am and i land.
suddenly Vinny Called me.
I answered it.
'Kuya, are you going here? We already ate lunch.' he said.
Akala ko pa naman ice-celebrate namin yung birthday ng lunch.
Di man lang nila ako hinintay.
'I just land in Baguio right now.' i said.
That's good, Dad said let's move it nlaang daw in Dinner time, he's not here din eh, kakaalis lang.' he said.
Sabi ko na eh.
Pumunta lang talaga siya dito to see that Girl.
I ended up the call and i called Mav.
'Yes sir?' he said.
'Check my Dad's Mistress' House, papunta si Dad 'don.' i said.
'Opo sir.' sagot niya.
I ended up the call and call someone para ipagdrive ako.
A minutes passed, my Driver came at nagpapunta muna ako dito sa Sm Baguio para magpalamig.
Pumunta ako dito sa isang Coffee shop sa loob ng mall.
I ordered a coffee na and just waiting for them to serve it.
and i suddenly saw a familiar guy wearing a black jacket.
It has a small guitar design sa may bandang chest.
Can't remember who's it.
Sean?
I approached him and he faced me.
It's Sean.
'Sandro?' he said.
'Why you're here?' i said.
I look around, and hoping that he's with Jillianne.
Kahit malaman kong sila na, basta makita ko lang siya ulit, i'll treasure that na.
'You, why you're here?' he said.
'I stayed in Baguio sometime, are you with Jillianne?' tanong ko sakanya.
Naaatat ako.
Hindi ako mapakali.
Baka he's with her.
'No im not, wait, diba you're her boyfriend?' he said.
So hindi nga, hindi niya kasama.
'Nevermind.' i said to him.
My energy changed.
I go back to my table and just wait for my order.
Sean suddenly sitting beside me.
'Why?' he said.
'You're always late in balita.' i said to him.
'Niloko mo?' he said.
Wow.
I glared him.
'She suddenly left me, 5 years ago, and I don't know where in this earth she is.' i said.
He chuckled.
'No, you're kidding. She loves you so much, how the hell she can leave you?' he said.
'If you see her, ask her.' i said.
'Sorry.' he whispered.
'no, it's ok.' sagot ko sakanya.
'No it's not.' he said.
My Coffee served.
'So see you around?' i said.
He smiles and held his hand.
We did fist bump before i left.
It's good seeing him, tho we have a messy past.
While at Car, nandito ako sa passenger seat and my driver's driving na pauwi.
I called Mav. To ask an updates.
'Sir, you're right, he's here.' he said.
'Bantayan niyo lang, if he stays there hanggang hapon, then i'll go there para ipahiya siya sa harap ng babae niya.' i said.
After that, i called Franzine to ask if she's now ok.
She answered it.
'Hello sir, can y-you here me?' she said.
'Yeah, but you're voice is a little choppy.' i said.
Ah wait.
'Is my voice better now?' she said.
'Yeah, Why it's like your signal is so poor, san ka ba?.' sagot ko sakanya.
'Ah Sir, nasa byahe po.' she said.
Hindi ko nga siya pinapasok para makapagpahinga siya, tapos gagala naman pala siya.
'Sana pumasok ka nalang kesa naglilibot ka.' i said.
'Ah sir, sorry po, magpapahinga lang po ako ngayong araw sa Baguio.'
She said.
Ah sa baguio pala.
Maybe she want to rest with her fam.
'I'm also in Baguio, who are you with?' i asked.
At natahimik siya bigla.
'Franzine?' i said.
'Ah sir, i'm, i'm with my Yaya and Jeremiah.' she said.
'Sir, wait lang po.' she said and she suddenly end up the call.
Nagsawa ata ssiya sa mga tanong ko sakanya.
Baka too personal na din kasi yung mga Questions ko.
A minutes passed, nakarating na ako sa Bahay here in Baguio.
Sinalubong naman ako ni Mom sa pinto.
I just hugged her and gives a kiss sa cheek.
We entered the house at ingay ang sinalubong ko kila Simon and Vinny.
They're jamming again.
They suddenly stopped when they saw me.
'No, it's ok, sige lang.' i said.
Akala ata nila may issue ako sa kaingayan nila, mag ingay lang sila ng mag ingay as long as i'm not in bad mood, ok lang.
They change the music style, and play the chords of Happy birthday.
My Mom's singing happy birthday naman while they're playing the instrument.
She suddenly went in the kitchen at bumalik sa kin ng may daladalang cake.
'Thanks guys.' i said and i give them smiles.
'You blow it.' my Mom said.
Don't like wishes, kaya i just blew it.
I get the cake from mom at nilagay muna sa ref.
I just sit here sa sala with them and making some bond.
Ano nanaman kayang nirason ni Dad kila Mom kung bakit siya wala dito.
'Where's Dad?' i asked Mom.
'He's in the Municipal of Baguio, meeting daw with the Congressman.'
She said.
'Oh Dad didn't tell it to me, he just said na he need to go somewhere, and do something important.' biglang sagot Ni Vinny.
See, iba iba palusot niya.
Nakakahalata na siguro sila vinny sa kilos ni Dad.
'Yeah, that's important naman, meeting with the Congressman, isn't it?' she said.
Vinny just nod his head.
I looked at my mom and she looks fine.
But that's also my point, she's fine tho she knows that her Husband is cheating on her.
'Mom, they need to knew it already.' i whispered to her.
'What's that?' she whispered back.
'na Dad is Cheating.' i said.
'How Many time i have to tell it to you, your dad is just working.' she said.
Pagtatakpan niya nanaman.
I stood up, and go to my room na.
It's already 2pm
I don't want to hear lies about him anymore.
Nakakasawa na.
If Dad still there mamaya after i rest, i'll tell to my Brothers what's really goin' on.
Franzine's Pov.
My Yaya, and i are already here in Baguio.
In my Mom's House.
Jeremiah's with us kanina, kasama namin siyang pumunta.
But he's in their house na.
Their house is just near dito samin.
That's why he can't go here anytime, and i can go there anytime.
Were parents treat us like their real child.
Mabaet din kase nanay ni Miah.
Si Jeremiah lang hindi.
We visited her Ate kanina sa Hospital, as now, ok na siya than last night.
I just said to her na keep fighting, like i always says to my Cousin.
Tito Bong is here, talking to my Mom.
I already said to him na baka pumunta si Sandro dito, pero ayaw parin umalis ni Tito Bong.
But i trust him, matalino siyang tao.
Hindi niya naman siguro hahayaang magkagulo.
'Ok ka lang?' i asked to my Cousin.
She just nod her head.
A minute passed and alex came.
My Cousin's Boyfriend is Alex.
I just let them talk at lumabas muna.
It's already 3:40pm in the afternoon.
Suddenly Jeremiah called me.
I answered it.
"I'll treat you outside." He said.
And suddenly ended up the call.
What should i do?
I'll treat you outside lang sinabi, he didn't tell me what time.
Baka naman next year.
A second passed, i saw her Car na paparating sa bahay.
So ngayon nga.
He beeps.
Wait lang naman.
I ignored him at pumasok muna sa loob to get my Phone.
After that sumakay na rin ako.
'Ang tagal.' he said and he drives.
I checked his temperature.
Ok naman, wala naman siyang lagnat.
'What did you eat? Himala you'll treat me.' i said.
'Wow, when did you ever treat me ba?' he said.
Grabe naman.
Sabagay, hindi ko pa naman siya nilibre.
'San tayo punta?' he said.
'It's up to you, ikaw naman manlilibre eh.' i said and i giggled.
He smirked.
'Kunwari ka pa, sige na, where you want?' he said.
He really knows me.
'Street food.' i said.
And after a minutes, huminto kami dito sa harap ng may nagtitindang street foods.
We buy some pero sa Car na niya kami kumain.
He suddenly drives at pinahawak sakin yung pagkain niya.
Hindi tuloy ako makakain.
We stopped here sa may Park.
Ang ganda.
'Sorry.' he said and he get his food to me.
He did a good decision, mas masarap kumain dito sa park.
We got out of his Car at umupo dito sa may Grass.
Palabas na yung Sunset.
And were done eating.
We buy a drink at bumalik rin kami agad dito sa may Grass.
While waiting for the sunset, he suddenly called me.
'Franzine.' he said.
And i looked at him.
He's smiling for a unknown reason.
Ewan ko sakanya.
'Yes?' i said.
'Do you ever think of us being more than friends?' he asked.
I chuckled.
'No.' i said.
but sometimes, i also think about it.
Pero bat ko naman sasabihin.
Bigla niya naman inalis yung tingin niya sakin.
Hala.
'Why?' i said.
'Isn't it obviously? I like you.' he said.
Pano ako magrereact.
I almost treat him like my brother.
Yes i like him, but that's before.
I don't know now.
Do you remember the first time we talked? 'cause I still remember the feeling i felt.
The feelings that no words can express how happy i am when i met you and become close to you.
The feelings that i don't want to lose.' he said.
I didn't expect him talking like this.
I didn't ever think he would like me back.
'Hey, say something.' he said and he chuckled.
'I'm ok with rejection, don't worry.' he said.
No.
I don't want to hurt him.
'I know you like your boss.' he said.
And i suddenly looked at him.
'What if i told you i like him?' i said.
'Sandro's Pov.'
It's already 4:40pm.
I'm with Simon here in one park sa Baguio.
Were just waiting for the sunset to leave.
Then suddenly i saw her.
Franzine with Jeremiah.
I don't know what they're talking about.
They look so serious together.
I don't want to interrupt them.
My phone suddenly Rings.
It's Mavrick.
I answered it, 'cause i need updates about my Dad.
'Sir, baka po umalis na Dad niyo.' he said.
'Don't worry, paalis na kami.' i said and i ended up the call.
I looked around and i saw Franzine and Jeremiah walking out of the Park na.
'Si, let's go.'. Pag aya ko sakanya.
I was in the direction of the location that Mav. Sent, i noticed, parang dun din papunta yung Car ni Jeremiah.
Then a minutes, they suddenly stopped sa harap ng bahay ng babae ni Dad.
Si Franzine lang yung bumaba, and Jeremiah drives his car na.
Why you're here, Franzine.
'Kuya, is this your Secretary's House?'
-biglang tanong ni Si.
'I don't know.' i said.
We saw Dad's Car.
I can see Franzine with my Dad, and His Mistress.
'Who's the one they are with?' he asked.
'That's Dad's Mistress, now you know.'
I said.
He suddenly chuckled.
'No kuya, Dad can't do that to Mom.'
He said.
'Are you blind?' i said to him.
My eyebrows are crossing.
Like, is he thinking i'm just tripping?
'Maybe she's just Dad's Friend.' he said.
'Fuck off Si.' i suddenly said with my Raised voice.
I left him in my Car at naglakad palapit kila Dad.
I make myself calm and i clapped my Hands around them.
'Hi dad.' i said and i smiled to her Mistress.
'Sir?' biglang salita ni Franzine.
I just ignored her.
Baka pati siya mapagbuntungan ko ng gakit.
Si joined us.
'Maybe you want to introduce her to your sons?' i said to Dad.
'Kuya.' pagtigil ni Simon sakin.
Suddenly a car stopped behind us.
'Sandro.'
It was my Mom's Voice.
They got out of Car and She's with Vinny.
What a good time.
'Now we're complete Dad, you can introduce her.' i said.
'Sandro, let's go.' pag aya ni Mom.
'Why Mom?! This is the time.' i said
'This is just your Dad's work.' she said.
Stop!
'Trabaho niyang magbabae?' i said.
'Kuya.' Vinny said and he hold me.
'Ano Dad?!' i said with my Raised voice.
He's just looking at me ng masama.
I'm not a kid anymore para matakot.
'If you don't want to introduce her, then ako na.' i said.
'Ok, let me introduce to you, my Dad's Girlfriend.' i said and i point the girl.
'No.' the girl said and she chuckled.
'I'm your Dad's Friend.' she said.
'Do you think you i'll believe?' i said to her.
'But that's what we are.' the girl said.
'Is there a friends would kiss each other as a goodbye?'
Is there a friends would set a private restaurant for the both them? I said.
'Sandro, let's talk to in our house.' Dad said sabay paghatak sakin.
I moved his hand and pointed the girl.
'You! What do you really want from my Dad?!' i said.
'This is too much!' biglang sigaw ni franzine sa harap ko.
'Get out our house, or i'll demand you making a trouble and being trespassing.' she said.
Suddenly i stopped.
And just look at her.
'Sorry sir, but you don't have any reason to raised your voice to my Mom.' she said.
Her mom?
'Are you kidding? Your Mom?' i said.
'Yes, you can leave, sir.' she said.
Wth, her mom is my Dad's Mistress?
'Let's go, Sandro.' my mom said.
'No.' pagpigil ng babaeng sinabi ni Franzine na nanay niya.
'I'm sorry.' my dad said to her at bigla nalang akong hinila.
'I said no.' the girl said.
My Dad stopped.
'Let's explain it to your Son inside my House.' she said and she walk with Franzine papasok ng bahay nila.
'this is what you want right? Come on.' my Dad said.
He hold my arm so tight.
Nasasaktan na ako.
'Go home.' my Dad said to my Brothers and Mom.
Sumunod kami kila Franzine and we stopped in their terrace.
Binitawan ako ni Dad at tinititigan lang nila akong tatlo.
'Admit it now.' i said.
'What?' i said.
'Can you please just listen?!' Franzine suddenly said.
Her mom holds her.
'Just take a rest in your room.' she said and Franzine left us.
'Ano na?' i said.
'Shut up.' my Dad said and he glared at me.
A minute of Silence between us.
'You're Father just helping us, your Mom knows about that.' she said.
'Helping you what? Raise you, your kids by my Dad's money?' i said.
'You don't know her, watch your words.' my dad said.
I faced him and said "i know her, she's mistress."
'Nothing's going on between your dad and i, were friends and believe me or not, she's just helping us' she said.
'My niece has a heart problem, and we need a professional Doctor.' she added.
'Then what's my care? Sinama niyo lang ba ako sa usapan niyo ngayon oara mag ambag ng pera?' diretsuhan kong tanong.
'We don't need your Help mister.' she bravely said.
'Halika.' my Dad said.
He stood up at hinatak ako papasok sa isang kwarto.
'Stop, i'm hurting.' i said to him at inalis yung hawak niya.
I saw a girl.
And suddenly changed my emotion into soft.
Nakahiga, with dextrose.
She's so thin, nangigitim yung labi, yung baba ng mata rin.
She looks so helpless.
'Now what can you say? Do you still have a heart?' my Dad said.
'How could you to make; helping a issue.' he said.
'Now, i'll ask you. can you just stare at her and don't make anyway to help her?' he said.
'I just really wenting here in Baguio because of her, because of a girl who i want to give hope.' he said.
He left me here with Franzine and the girl who has a heart problem.
I approached the Girl, and suddenly can't help myself not to tear.
'She's idolizing your Family, specially your Dad.' Franzine said.
So Dad's coming here para magpakita dito sa babaeng may heart problem.
I never thought about this.
The girl slowly opened her eyes.
Nagising ko ata.
'Ferdinand Alexander Marcos?' she suddenly said with her super low voice.
Her voice is cracking.
I smiled at her and hold his hand.
'Kamusta?' tanong ko sakanya.
She's saying something.
Pero hindi ko masyadong marinig dahil napakahina ng boses niya.
Nilapit ko lang yung ear ko sakanya to hear eat clearly.
'Kaya pa po.' she whispered.
Suddenly, there's someone who entered the room.
She looks like a nurse.
'Sir, she needs to rest.' bulong ni Franzine sabay pagsama saking lumabas.
We went back here sa Terrace nila.
Dad and her mom isn't here, baka naguusap sila sa loob.
'Sir, sorry po.' she suddenly said.
She so humble, tho she didn't do anything wrong siya pa nagsorry.
'I'm sorry, sorry for my raising voice to your mom.' i said.
'And sorry for thinking wrong about your Mom and my Dad.' i added
'Sir, you must be say that to them, hindi sakin.' she said.
I just looked at her.
I'm full of confusion.
'Franzine, how your Mom become friends to my Dad?' i said.
'A long story Sir.' she said.
'Sandro, let's go.' my Dad's voice behind me.
Lumapit naman si Franzine sa nanay niya.
I can't look at her straight.
Nakakahiya yung mga ginawa ko.
'If you don't have to say, then let's go.' my day said.
And my conscience keep telling me to say sorry to them.
'Sorry, Ma'am.' i said and i approached her.
I Faced her.
And I'm expecting her slap in my Face.
But she didn't do it.
She smiles, and suddenly hugged me.
'It's ok, sometimes you just need to show your flaws din.' she said.
She's humble as her Daughter.
Now i know kanina nagmana si Franzine.
I smiled at her.
Suddenly alex came.
'You're, you're here.' he said to me.
Dad give him fist bump.
Nagmano nalang siya bigla sa nanay ni Franzine.
'Excuse me po.' he said and he went somewhere sa loob ng bahay nila Franzine.
Why he knew Franzine's house.
What's alex connects to Franzine.
Alex came, and i Heard a bark from a dog.
Nabitawan bigla ni Alex yung tali and then the dog run to me.
Is.
Is this Yesha?
But it's so imposible to see it here.
She's Jillianne's own, then why Yesha's with alex.
Baka kamukha lang ni Yesha.
Same breed and same eye color.
Noz this is yesha.
'Yesha?' i whispered.
And suddenly the dog barks when I called her Yesha.
The dog kisses me.
Seems like it misses me.
'Yesha.' i said at kinalaro siya.
'It name is Kesha, nit yesha.' alex said.
And i just look at him.
He get the dog.
'Excuse, bye tita, Franzine, sir Bong.' he said
at sinakay sa sasakyan niya yung aso.
'It's Jillianne's dog.' i said habang tinitignan yung aso sa may bintana ng sasakyan ni Alex.
'Sandro, don't think about it, that dog us theirs.' my dad said.
'Let's go.' he added and he walked palabas.
'Franzine's Pov.'
Sir Bong is in his Car na.
Hinihintay nalang ata si Sandro.
He's here beside me.
Nakatingin lang sa sasakyan ni Alex.
'It's really her dog.' bigla niyang salita.
'Baka kamukha lang sir.' i said to him.
'No Franzine, i know our dog.' he said.
'Why it's with that guy.' he added.
Tahimik lang ako at hinayaan siyang mag isip.
The girl he saw earlier is my cousin.
She's Mira.
She's adopted by my Tita who's now in other Country.
Binilin siya samin.
And we treated her like our own relative.
But Mom and i just checked her here.
May nag aasikaso na sakanya dito.
This is our second house in Baguio lang.
My kuya's There kung saan lagi kaming nag i-stay to cary our cousin who also has heart problem.
My legitimately Cousin.
Yes, she's Jillianne.
My tito Noel and Tita Eliza's Daughter.
She just moved there earlier, bago nakarating si Sir Sandro.
Buti nalang tito Bong helps us to moved her there agad.
Tito Bong handled us.
When i'm still here in Baguio with Jillianne.
I asked her about Sandro dahil lagi najang nitang bukang bibig yun.
We talked about him.
Until i decided to go in Ilocos just to know Sandro Marcos.
To give Jillianne update about him.
To give her happiness kahit konti.
Hanggang sa i choose to applied para makilala siya.
No one knows that i'm related to Jillianne, my cousins.
But
Tito Bong searched who really i am, he investigate who my last name is, unti he knew that his Son's past Girlfriends is my Cousin.
He talked to me when were at the hospital, when the time that Vinny and Simon got an accident.
He said to me na alam na niya what's my purpose why i'm here.
He asked me if he can see Jillianne.
And i let him see her.
Everytime that Sir bong is going here in Baguio, lagi siyang may dala dalang updates about Sir Sandro.
And that's make her happy.
Her smiles different everytime we're talking about Sandro.
Ibang iba.
Alex's trying his best naman to nake my Cousin happy, pero si Sandro lang talaga yung may kayang magpalakas sakanya.
Jillianne's Boyfriend now is Alex.
The Congressman of this place, Baguio.
