BEATRIZ
"Ano ba talaga ang balak mo Beatriz?! Ano, pagkatapos mo mag propose propose jan lolokohin mo lang pala ako!" Jho shouts
Nandito kami sa room niya, and I just told her what happened the whole night when I was with Caitlin
"Babe, relax okay? Hindi kita niloko" mahinahon kong sabi and held both of her hands
Winaglit agad ni Jho ang pagkakahawak ko sa mga kamay niya "bitawan mo ako" Jho
"Sorry for not letting you know right away. Ayaw ko lang na mag-alala ka"
"Ang sabihin mo nag enjoy ka sa halik niya, ba't di niyo nalang kasi tinuloy?! Dun ka naman magaling diba?!" Jho shouts
"Sa kama ka lang magaling. And now I know kung bakit nangati kang makipag sex sa'kin, para mawala yang guilt mo" Jho added at madiin niya itong sabi
I am just silently listening to her, but it's killing me inside.
"I'm not like that, babe. Ganyan ba tingin mo sa'kin?" nanghihina kong sabi and my shoulders dropped
Jho did not dare to respond
"Tatanggapin ko kung pano mo ako tignan, but put some trust in me naman Jho. My heart knows where it belongs"
Jho turned her back and proceeded to leave the room, leaving me alone inside
THIRD PERSON
Hindi naman nagtagal si Bea sa room ni Jho nang iwan nito, dahil bumaba rin siya after
"Manang, have you seen Jho?" Bea
"Ah eh nasa pool area, bad mood ba? Ayaw ako kausapin eh" manang
"Ganun po ba? Sige, I'll talk to her lang at uuwi na rin ho ako" Bea
"Agad agad?" manang
Bea nodded
Mag-aalas sais na kasi ng gabi
Nang marating ni Bea ang pool ay nakita niyang nakatalikod si Jho na nakalubog yung mga paa sa tubig habang umiinom ng wine
Lumapit si Bea at umupo with her feet, and then hugs Jho from behind with her hands around Jho's waist
"I admit that I was wrong. But I didn't mean to hurt you, babe. I never wanted to hurt you. Patawarin mo ako please?"
Hinahayaan lang naman ni Jho si Bea. Habang nakayakap si Bea ay dahan-dahang pinunasan ni Jho ang mga luha niya
"Gusto kong mapag-isa" Jho
Nanatili lang si Bea sa pwesto niya at niyakap lang si Jho sa from behind
"Did you hear me? Ang sabi ko, gusto kong mapag-isa" Jho
Bea tightened the hug for a moment at bumitaw din ito. She then kissed Jho's temple before speaking
"Uuwi na ako. Thank you for the day, babe.....Don't forget to eat dinner later, ok? I love you" Bea
Jho continues drinking wine as if not minding what Bea is saying and not caring to respond back. Hindi nagtagal ay umalis na nga si Bea
Few moments later
Jho looked behind her to see that Bea was not in her sight anymore at dito na siya humagulgol sa pag-iyak
Two days later
JHOANA
Mag-isa ako ngayong nakipag meet up sa wedding organizer namin. Hindi ko kasama si Beatriz dahil dalawang araw na kaming hindi nag-uusap, I blocked her socmed accounts. Kahit naman kasi nasira phone niya ay may other gadgets pa yun
"....so that's all for today Ms. Jho, next meeting nalang yung ibang kailangang ayusin, and hopefully kasama na si Bea soon hehe" mimiyuh (wedding organizer)
"Hehe thanks Mimi" I chuckled
After the meeting ay umuwi na ako sa condo ko here in Manila. Nagpa transfer na rin ako ng work location kay papa. Magiging hassle kasi kung sa Batangas pa ako nag wowork ngayong kalagitanaan ng wedding preparation namin
DEANNA
*Bea and Deanna's phone call*
"Tapos na raw meeting ni Jho"
"Ok kumusta raw? How is she?" Bea at habang nagsasalita siya ay inuubo ito at sinisipon
"Ewan yun lang naman sabi ni Carly. Teka are you sick?"
"Wala 'to" Bea
"Halata sa boses mo, Bei. Hindi ka pa ba kasi inu unblock ni Jho?"
"Nope, not yet" Bea
"I'll tell her na may sakit ka, nako si Jho lang kailangan mo para gumaling"
"Deans no, wag mo siyang abalahin. I'll be fine" Bea
"Abala ka jan, as if matitiis ka niya. Isa pa, para maayos niyo na yung problema niyo"
After the call ay nagsumbong ako kay Jho ☺️
JHOANA
*Det and Jho's phone call*
"Hello tita? Papunta po pala ako ngayon sa bahay niyo, ok lang po ba?"
Deanna texted me, may sakit daw si Bea
"Sure sure but before you come, uminom ka ng vitamin C, para hindi ka madaling mahawaan kay Isabel, anak" tita Det
"Sige tita, thank you"
"Ingat sa daan ha? Miss kana ni Isabel hehe" tita Det
"Hehe mas miss ko po siya"
"Kayo talaga. Oh sha, hindi ko na patatagalin para makarating kana agad dito" tita Det
"Sige tita I'll end the call na rin hehe, bye po"
I ended the call
BEATRIZ
Bigla-bigla nalang pumupunta si Caitlin dito. The worst thing is that she's now inside my room, pinapakain niya ako ng soup. But the good thing is nandito rin si mom sa loob ng room ko, for sure binabantayan niya si Caitlin
Hindi rin naman alam ng parents ko ang nangyari last two days ago kung saan nagkita kami ni Caitlin na siyang dahilan ng away namin ni Jho
"Do you remember something like this? Our old routine back in the UK" Caitlin habang sinusubuan ako
Siya kasi non ang laging nagpapakain sa'kin nung nasa hospital pa ako
"So?"
Hindi naman kami rinig ni mom kasi medyo malayo siya samin at mahina rin naman boses namin ni Cait
"Bei, don't be rude naman, pwede?" Cait
"Sorry to say this, pero kung sana hindi ka nanggugulo"
"Just please allow me to love you, kahit alam kong hindi ako ang tinitibok ng puso mo" Cait
"Cait stop. And no, masasaktan si Jho. In fact, I don't want to be close with you anymore"
Suddenly a tear fell from her eyes, and I immediately looked away
I don't want to see her cry, nanghihina ako. Cait has become close to my heart since then, ayoko rin naman siyang nakikitang nasasaktan
I don't want Cait to put up with so much pain.
DET
*door opens*
Pumasok na nga si Jho dito sa loob ng room ni Isabel, at agad ko naman siyang sinalubong
"Babe?" maganang sabi ni Bea
"Jho anak, you're finally here" sabi ko at nagyakapan kami saglit
"Mild traffic tita kaya medyo natagalan hehe" Jho
"It's fine. Oh by the way Caitlin is here, dinadalaw si Isabel"
Ngumiti si Jho ng simple
"Don't worry nakabantay ako the whole time" I whispered
"Nako tita ok lang po kahit hindi na" Jho
"Mahirap na anak" sabi ko
"Caitlin iha, may itatanong lang pala sana ako"
Lumapit naman si Caitlin sa'kin at iniwan muna si Isabel
"What is it tita?" Caitlin
"Sa baba nalang tayo. I baked some Lasagna, kain tayo while making some kwentos hehe"
"Sure tita" Caitlin
"Enjoy" I mouthed to Jho
