{Nadine's POV}



Mahal ko na si Paulo, ma.






Hindi yun ang sagot sa tanong ko Nadine.









Nawawala ba talaga yung love ‘my? Kasi feeling ko, hindi naman. Feeling ko palaging andun yun. Nagbabago lang siguro yung intensity. Nagbabago yung klase ng love. Siguro hindi na gaya ng dati na romantic love yung kung anuman ang meron kami ngayon o ang nararamdaman ko sa kanya. After all, kung wala si James, wala naman si Reese sakin eh.













Hindi ka na ba nagagalit sa kanya? Sa ginawa nya? Sa choice nya? Dati may sama ka ng loob kay James ‘nak. Wala na ba ‘yun ngayon? Napatawad mo na sya?














Wala naman dapat i-forgive eh. Tama naman kayo. Hindi lang naman sya yun eh. May fault din ako. And nakikita ko naman na nasaktan ko sya. Pano ko magagawang magalit sa kanya? If I think about it, parang parehas lang kami. Parehas kaming nawalan. Nawalan ako ng asawa, nawalan ng tatay ang anak ko ng ilang taon. Pero nawalan din sya. Nawalan sya ng asawa’t anak. Yung mga moments ni Reese na dapat naging part sya, ninakaw ko yun sa kanya.











Pinili nya yun diba? Napilitan kang umalis dati dahil sa kanya mismo.










Yun na nga eh. Hindi ko naman talaga sya binigyan ng option diba? No’ng nalaman ko na buntis ako lumayas ako without telling him, without asking him ano ang gusto nyang gawin namin. And ma, kanino ka ba talaga kampi? Dati kahit ayaw ko, pinapadalhan mo sya ng updates kay Reese. May mga pictures pa nga eh. Tapos ngayon parang dapat hindi ako makipaglapit sa kanya?







Hindi naman ganun anak. Ang sa akin lang, sa’yo na rin nanggaling. Ayaw nya pa ng baby noon. Parehas kayo na hindi ineexpect ang pagdating ni Reese. Yung ginawa ko bilang manugang ko sya at anak nya si Reese karapatan nya yun malaman. And kung anuman ang mga nangyari hindi na natin maibabalik yun. Ang intindihin mo yung ngayon. Iba ang sitwasyon nyo ngayon. Ano’ng plano nyo? Pag nalaman nyo sino yung nagkalat ng tungkol sa kasal nyo? Ano na ang gagawin nyo? Hanggang kelan kayo magpapanggap na okay kayo? Hanggang kelan kayo titira sa isang bahay? At paano kayo nyan pag naghiwalay kayo? Paano pag hinanap sya ng bata?











I had no answer to any of it.
My dad picked up my mom but Mimi wanted to sleep over so James promised my dad he’ll drop her off in the morning on his way to the studio.










It wasn’t any surprise that Reese slept soundly; he was overtired from playing with Mimi and Jack and trying to catch Clarky only to land on his ass. I was applying lotion when James entered the room.









Uhm. Tulog na si Reese. I don’t think he’d wake up pa. Pwede ka na sigurong magsleep sa room mo tonight.







You’re kicking me out?






James…






May sinabi ba si Mama? He sits at the foot of the bed, tucking Reese’s toe in the blanket.








Kinausap nya lang ako... may point naman sya eh.






What did she say?






Don’t you think this isn’t a good idea? Getting Reese used to the setup?





He was quiet for a minute, deliberating inside his head probably.
Can I be honest? I’m getting used to this too.





Does Nath know?






Does Paulo?





Yes. I tell him everything.





No, Nath has no idea. He kissed Reese on the forehead then turned for the door.
Night, Naddie.
