Deanna POV
Ang tagal naman ng JhoBea, kanina pa pumunta don si Ate Jho, mayayari ako ni captain nito eh.
Wala akong choice kundi puntahan sila or else I would be dead.
From the party venue I have to walk about 5 mins bago makapunta sa unit namin.
Habang naglalakad ako and nagcocontemplate sa buhay may tumawag sakin.
"Hey Deanns! Asan Ate Jho mo?" Nico
"Uy Kuya Nico! Nandito ka pala? I thought di ka makakasama." Deanna
"No that's just a show hahaha susurprise ko si Ate Jho mo, asan ba siya?" Nico
Paktay bakit ba kasi siya pa sumundo kay Dada, malaking gulo to pag nagkita na magkasama sila.
"Uhmm baka nasa venue na, di ko masyadong napansin check mo na lang don Kuya Nico." Deanna
"Okay thanks Wongskie! San ka punta?" Nico
"Ah sa unit ko lang, may kukunin lang." Deanna
"Ah ganon, samahan na kita para sabay na tayo pagpunta sa venue." Nico
"Wag na, una ka na don. I have to go sa cr pa eh hehe" Deanna
"Ay ganun ba sige, una na ko Deanns! See you later!" Nico
Buti naman kumagat siya don and tumakbo na ako pabalik ng unit ko.
I opened it agad agad and to my surprise magkasama nga sila.
Tulog si Ate Jho while si Dada kalalabas lang ng cr.
"Uy Deanna, parang hinahabol ka diyan ah. Oks ka lang?" Bea
"No! I saw Kuya Nico outside! Hinahanap si Ate Jho!" Deanna (whisper)
"Ayan Ate Jho mo, pasundo mo sa kanya tulog na tulog eh." Bea
"Baliw! Malaking gulo pag nakita niya na magkasama kayo." Deanna
"Wala naman akong ginagawang masama and besides si Jho ang pumunta dito, hindi ko naman kagustuhan yon. Gisingin mo na yan para makalabas na kayo. Susunod ako." Bea
"Promise yan ah! Susunod ka, wag kang matutulog lang dito!" Deanna
"Oo nga! Kaliligo ko oh, sige na gisingin mo na yan so I can prepare na din. Go shoo! Shoo!" Bea
"Ate Jho! Ate Jho! Gising na tara na sa venue akala ko ba ikaw maghihila kay Dada eh ikaw tong parang namagnet ng kama." Deanna
"Ay sorry Deanns! Si Bea kasi ayaw pang bumangon kanina." Jho
"Luh ako pa sinisi mo, bangon ka na nandiyan sa labas boyfriend mo iniintay ka daw sa venue." Bea
"Ano?" Jho
"Si Kuya Nico nasa venue, hinahanap ka." Deanna
"Ay ganon ba? Hindi ka sasabay samin Beh?" Jho
"Ate Jho narinig mo ba sinabi ko? Si Kuya Nico nasa venue!" Deanna
"Narinig ko, pero ang tanong ko kung sasabay satin si Beh" Jho
"Una na kayo, baka maging gulo pa." Bea
"Okay." Jho
"Una na kami Dada! See you! Wag masyadong galingan ah!" Deanna
"Baliw! See you!" Bea
BEA POV
I weared a polo, unbuttoned first two buttons wearing a sexy two piece swimsuit I would say. And a shorts of course, party pa naman yon hahaha!
I sprayed my favorite perfume, it's a boy's perfume kasi mas mabango talaga. Signatured Calvin Klein edition.
Lumabas na ako getting my phone, kasi yung lang naman kelangan.
I received a message from Jia kung nasaang lupalop na daw ako kasi wala pa ako don and the party is about to start.
I replied naman for her not to get mad
"Chill ~" that's the only thing I replied for her to be annoyed.
Habang naglalakad naririnig ko naman na ang tugtog ng venue.
"Bea!" Thirdy
"Uy Thirds! Nandito ka pala, pinasunod ka ni Jules no?" Bea
"Syempre, boyfriend duties! Hey I want you to meet Marco and Brix my friend actually friend din nina Jules and Ponggay!" Thirdy
"Hi Marco and Brix Nice to meet you!" Bea
"Nice to meet you too Bea!" Marco
"Hey Bea! Nice to meet you!" Brix
And naglakad naman kami sa venue while having a little chitchats.
Nakita ko naman kung saan nakaupo sina Jia and there's a vacant seat beside her. Nagpaalam muna ako kana Thirdy and sila din naman sa table nina Jules.
I hugged Jia sideward.
"Bawal nakasimangot sa party babe" Bea
And kissed her cheeks!
"Ang tagal mo lang talaga Isabel Beatriz!" Jia
"I said chill! Pumunta na ako oh, andito na ako sa tabi mo pwede mo na ako landiin" Bea
"Landi pa rin talaga kahit kelan baby besh! Manang mana ka kay Alyssa!" Den
"Hehe sorry na Mommy Den! Loyal naman ih." Bea
"Wow bango natin ah!" Maddie
"Syempre dami chicks mamaya Mads! Perks ng single!" Bea
"Wow! Jia mambabae ata tong bata mo ngayong gabi eh." Maddie
"Hindi niya kaya, promise pustahan pa tayo hahahaha!" Jia
"What if I can, would you be mine Ms. Julia Melissa Morado?" Bea
"Yes naman! Kaya pala late nagpagwapo pa para makascore kay Jia! Ano Jia pag yan nakapangchicks tonight, magiging kayo?" Ella
"Baliw! Ang childish niyo! Ako na naman trip niyo!" Jia
"Sus kanina lang nag-aalala ka kasi wala pa dito si Bei!" Ella
"Che!" Jia
"Guys settle down na magstastart na ang program." Alyssa, alyssa being alyssa tagapamagitan sa lady eagles
JHO POV
Hindi ako masaya, pero dapat masaya ako kaya panggap ako dito sa party. I should be happy right? Dumating si Nico pero bakit hindi?
"Babe! Surpriseeee!" Nico
"Heyyy! Dumating ka akala ko hindi" Jho
I said na kunwari excited but in fact it's a no for me.
"Wouldn't miss it for the world na wala ako sa piling mo. Bawi ako sayo now!" Nico
"Sure Babe, let's take a seat na." Jho
Umupo na kami, si Wongski naman kadadating lang naghiwalay kami para di kami halata ni Nico.
And for about ilang minutes dumating na din si Bea and I don't know what I'm feeling but I found her hot sa suot niya. Shit!
Maglalandian lang ata sila ni Jia tonight. I should focus on Nico. Kay Nico ang mindset ko dapat.
Nasa kabilang table ako kasama sina Syd and other rookies. Sa kabilang table naman sina Ate Ly, team besh kasama si Jia Maddie at Bea. Yung iba na naman nasa kabilang table din.
Nandito din pala si Thirdy and may kasama siyang guy. Di ko siya kilala pero maputi ha and gwapo din.
The party is about to start.
**
Host: Welcome to the annual Revolution Party! I hope we are all inlove, for us to celebrate this year full of love! If you're sad right now, we are here to help you to let it go.
If you're inlove, sana katabi niyo ang mahal niyo ngayon.
BEA POV
Pagkasabi ng host eh napatingin ako kay Jho, the love of my life sana nga katabi ko siya but apparently no. My baby is inlove and beside with someone else.
Sabay nang pagtingin ko ay siyang pagtingin niya din sa kanya...kay Nico pero bigla siyang tumingin sakin.
I know she don't remember anything, but why do I feel na she's not happy with Nico right now.
I hope this feelings of mine, won't interrupt what I have in my mind.
Umiwas ako ng tingin at tumingin na lamang kay Jia. Seems everyone got a partner right now except the rookies and well Ate Ella hahaha!
The party started, may mga bandang tutugtog and dj's. Bukas na din ang buffet section kaya hinila ko si Jia, holding her hand and pumila sa buffet.
"Ano babe gutom na gutom? Lakas makahila ah." Jia
"Di pa ako kumakain, wag ka na kumontra please, gagawin ko lahat ng gusto mo pero isa lang basta samahan mo na ko kumain." Bea
"Fine! I'll keep that in mind. Miss De Leon hihi." Jia
Medyo mahaba yung pila kaya matagal din ako nakatayo, dinamihan ko na yung kuha sa pagkain ko kasi baka one time big time lang 'to.
Sobrang saya ko kasi ang daming bagnet! Favorite kaya namin 'to.
Bumalik na kami ni Jia sa table namin after kumuha ng foods. I got a lot of Bagnet, papagalitan sana ako ni Jia but I just shrugged her.
"Not in the mood for sermon Ju, gusto ko lang kumain." Bea
"Fine! Eat this gulay para balance naman, tapos you'll drink pa later. That's my favor for you! You owe me one!" Jia
"Fine boss babe! Kain na tayo." Bea
Kumain na kami, minsang sinusubuan ako ni Jia ng gulay and I would do the same sa kanya.
Dumating naman si Wong at puro bagnet din.
"Bagnet Bagnet Bagnet! Masarap ang Bagnet!" Bea
Kanta ko sa kanya kaya sumabay siya sakin.
Tinapunan naman kami ng tissue ni Ponggay!
"Korni niyo!" Ponggay
"Alam mo inggit ka lang! Kuha ka din ng bagnet bagnet bagnet 🎶" Deanna
"Duh healthy living naman diyan Deans! Kaya di ka nirereplyan ni Jema ehh!" Ponggay
"Hoyyyy! I told you it stays between us! Letche ka Ponggay!" Deanna
"Ooopss sorry, akala ko mamantika bibig ko. Napadulas! HAHAHA!" Ponggay
"Jema who?" Maddie
"Secret! I'm not ready to tell a story!" Deanna
"Ay ang daya! Guys si Deanna umiibig na!" Maddie
At bumilog naman lahat ng ALE sa table namin para icorner si Wongs. Patay kang bata ka hahaha I think I need to save her ass.
"Guys! Spare Deanna, wag niyong ipressure bahala kayo baka lalong di ipakilala ni Deanna satin si so-called-Jema" Bea
"Wow Bei, ikaw ba yan? Parang ayaw mo mangbully ngayon ah! Hahaha nakakapanibago nagbabago kana Bea huhuhu" Mitch
"Huy hindi! Ayoko lang ipressure si Wong na mag-open up." Bea
"Guys balik na sa table niyo. Kasi party party na later!" Ate Den.
Bumalik naman na sila at kumain na. Mayamaya lang ay nagsabi na host na start na ang rave and dance party.
Actually this party is exclusive lang dito sa bar na lagi naming pinupuntahan.
I was taken back ng biglang sweet songs ang pinapatugtog ng dj. Lahat kami ng ALE eh nagtataka. Biglang humawi yung tao sa venue. Tumapat ang spotlight kay Jho.
"Okay what's happening?" Jho
Biglang may another spotlight sa kabilang dulo na katapat ni Jho.
"Hi Jhoana! I know I've known you for almost three years. Sobrang fan mo ako sa volleyball, kaya sobrang saya ko na maging kaklase ka sa ilang subject. From the moment na pinansin mo ako sa class natin. I knew that I want to spend every second with you." Nico
JIA POV
Okay okay, we are panicking right now. Is he going to propose. Hinanap ko si Beadel and nasa likod siya ni Jho. Lumapit kami ng Team Besh even Wong sa tabi ni Bea.
Shit shit! Sana hindi ano ba tong plano ni Nico!
Pagkatapos ng speech ni Nico. Lumapit siya kay Jho.
"Babe I know saglit pa lang tayong magkasintahan. Pero I don't wanna lose you anymore. Ayoko na makita na hawak ka pa ng iba. Ayoko na bumalik sa dati, I want us to focus on the future." Nico
May kinuha siyang papel and binasa niya ito.
"I found this letter sa paborito mong place. Yung overview sa Antipolo. And I think these are the right words to say to you.
Jhoana I promise to take care of you, to love you unconditionally. You're a gift. You're a gift I never dreamed I could want, or need and everyday I will show you that you're a gift that I deserve. You Make Me The Best Person I could ever hope to be, and I want to spend, and learn, and love, The Rest Of My Life With You.
Jhoana Louisse Agno Maraguinot, will you marry me?" Nico
Nagtilian ang lahat ng tao sa venue but the rest of us Ateneo Lady Eagles hindi kami masaya sa nangyayari.
Nakaluhod si Nico and nasa likod niya si Kiefer and Miguel. Well Kiefer was Ate Ly's ex suitor pero binasted siya ni Ate Ly. While Miguel on the other hand was mine.
Jhoana said Yes.
Sa sobrang dumb ko sa panonood sa proposal ni Nico. Hindi ko napansin na umalis na si Bea.
"Ate Ly! Si Ate Bea!" Deanna
"Shit! Guys! Habulin natin si Bea!" Ly
"Ella and Den the rest of the rookies stay here and update us ha? Habulin lang namin si Bea!" Ly
Tumango naman sila, ako di ko na alam ang gagawin. I know Bea's extremely hurt with what is happening right now. Pero I'm waiting what Jho would say. Nakatingin siya kana Ate Ella. Like she's confused or anything.
She already said Yes? Pero bakit parang wala siya sa sarili niya?
JHO POV
"Jhoana, I promise to take care of you, to love you unconditionally. You're a gift. You're a gift I never dreamed I could want, or need and everyday I will show you that you're a gift that I deserve. You Make Me The Best Person I could ever hope to be, and I want to spend, and learn, and love, The Rest Of My Life With You.
Jho, Will you marry me?" Nico
Para akong nabingi, I should be happy right? The one I love proposed to me. Sagot ko na lang ang hinihintay. But as I remember his words. I felt it was familiar.
Unconsciously slip of the tongue I said Yes. And from that moment pinagsisihan ko sa mabilis kong pagsabi ng Yes due to pressure sa mga taong nasa paligid ko.
Sa sobrang pressure and pag-alala nang sinabi ni Nico sakin mula dun sa maliit na papel na binasa niya... sumakit ang ulo ko then....
Everything went black.
BEA POV
As soon as I heard Jho said Yes. Sira na ang mundo ko, she will never be mine. Tumakbo ako papalayo sa kanila. Papalayo sa mundong 'to.
Buti na lang I got my keys. Tumakbo ako ng sobrang bilis. Narinig kong tinatawag ako nina Deanna. Pero di ko sila pinapansin.
Diretso akong sumakay sa sasakyan ko at pinaharurot ang pagtakbo nito.
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Gusto ko nang mawala sa mundong to. Mahirap nang ipaglaban ang taong nakatali na.
"Why didn't you wait for me Jho? Why didn't you hold on to your promise? Tangina Lord! Ano bang nagawa kong masama to deserve this kind of pain." Bea
Nico used my letter, that's my promise to Jho. I didn't know na nakita niya yung pinagtaguan namin ni Jho ng letter. Tangina!
Sobrang bilis ko pinatakbo ang sasakyan ko and hindi ko alam kung saan ako papunta.
Gusto ko lang lumayo sa kanilang lahat.
Lumayo sa taong mahal ko.
Totoo nga na "wala na finish na" finish na.
Tapos na ang istoryang naming dalawa. She already said yes. The love of my life said Yes.
Walang tigil naman na nagriring ang phone ko. I'm not gonna answer that. Tumigil muna ako sa isang gasoline station and nagpagas and bought some food and drinks.
After that, sumakay uli ako. I was drinking while driving. I know, I'm breaking the law here! But fuck the law, gusto ko lang kunin na ako ni Lord.
I'm running for about 100km/hr buti nga wala masyadong sasakyan.
I even get my cigar. Inom here inom there. Sunog baga here, sunog baga there.
I hope this will be the death of me.
Naging blurred paningin ko kasi di ko namalayan na naiyak na pala ako.
Inaalala lahat ng masasayang araw namin ni Jho. From strangers to lovers nawala na lang bigla, naglaho parang bula, everything's fading even my vision.
"I don't feel so good about this, but Thank You Lord!"
And the second I knew... everything went black.
ALYSSA POV
Ang bilis nawala ni Bea, kaya naghiwa-hiwalay kami nina Maddie ng sasakyan to search for her.
Mahigit twenty minutes na din kaming nagdridrive.
Tumawag si Den
*on the phone
"Babe bad news, si Jho, nanghimatay isusugod namin siya sa ospital 15mins away from here. Sunod na lang kayo pagnakita niyo na si Bea. Ingat ka. Ingat kayo. I love you." Den
"Shit. Ingat din kayo Iloveyou. Di pa namin nakikita si Bea." Alyssa
We bid goodbyes at binaba na ang call.
*Deanna calling
"Ate Ly..." Deanna
"Uy what's wrong? Bakit ka naiyak? Nakita mo na ba si Bea?" Alyssa
"Ate Ly, si Dada, she got into and accident. Dito sa may arko ng San Juan, La Union. Hurry up!" Deanna
"Shit! I'm coming over tumawag ka na ng ambulance I'll call Maddie!" Alyssa
*on the phone
"Madz where are you? Meet us sa arko ng San Juan La Union. Bea's there. Faster!" Alyssa
"Huh? Okay! Anong nangyari?" Maddie
"I'll explain later!" Alyssa
Binilisan ko ang patakbo ng sasakyan ko. Nakarating din ako after 10mins.
I hugged Deanna, she's in shock of what is happening, dumating na din si Maddie and she just get down on her knees.
"Anong sabi ng emergency team?" Alyssa
"She has vitals pa daw and breathing buti naagapan pero kailangan na siyang dalhin sa hospital dahil fifty-fifty ang kalagayan niya. Ate Ly ayokong mawala si Ate Bea." Deanna
"The two of you composed yourself! Papunta tayo sa hospital kasunod ng ambulansya. Let's go! Let's pray for her." Alyssa
Shit naman Bea! Bakit umabot ka naman sa ganito! I groaned in frustration at hinampas hampas ang manobela. Umalis na rin kami sa lugar at sumunod sa ambulansya. I need to call Jia.
"Ju asan kayo?" Alyssa
"We're here sa hospital? Kayo asan kayo? Di sumasagot si Beadel sa call ko. " Jia
"We'll meet you there. Nandiyan ba silang lahat?" Alyssa
"Yes! Even Nico and his friends saka sina Thirdy." Jia
"Okay. Bye Ju! Tatagan mo."
I tried not telling her on the phone. Ayokong magcause ng panic sa kanila.
JIA POV
"Tatagan mo." Ate Ly
Bakit kaya?
Jho was aided by the doctor. I even called Tita Lovel and they're gonna come first thing in the morning kasama ang medical doctor ni Jho.
After 30mins may maingay na ambulansya na paparating.
Aid! Aid! 50:50!
Sigawan ng mga nurse and doctor.
Nagulat ako na kasunod sina Ate Ly.
"Hey who's that?" Den
And suddenly Ate Ly breakdown
"It's Bea." Ate Ly
No! It can't be, hindi mangyayari na si Bea yon. Maingat siya magdrive after ng accident nila ni Jho. No hindi pwede to!
"Ate Ly tell me you are joking!" Jia
"No I'm not! Why would I joke something like that!" Ate Ly
"Hey guys calm down and let's pray for the two of them." Ate Amy
"Deanna Maddie, is that true? Is that Bea?" Jia
"Yes ate Jia!" Deanna
Only Deanna managed to answer me.
Everything is slow-mo pagkatapos kong marinig na si Bea yon.
And they both cried. Umiiyak na din ang buong ALE kasi hindi deserved nilang dalawa to. They don't deserve this pain.
I cried and I cried until I heard someone whisper
"Bilis ng karma pre. Hirap talaga kapag mang-aagaw."
"Ulitin mo yung sinabi mo." Alyssa
"What?" Nico
"I said ulitin mo yung sinabi mo." Alyssa
"Ly kumalma ka, walang magandang dulot kapag pinatulan mo siya. Hindi lang matutuwa si Bea." Den
" Bilis ng karma tingnan mo nakaratay sa emergency room." Nico
"Oh she would be happy if I do this." Jia
Sinapak ko si Nico to the point na napahiga siya sa sahig. Inawat naman ako nina Thirdy sa nangyayari. Pero sumapak din si Ate Ly pagkatapos makatayo ni Nico! Hinawakan naman siya nina Brix.
"Bitawan niyo ko, mapapatay ko yan! Ikaw lang naman sumisira ng buhay nilang dalawa eh! Umepal ka sa story nila! You were never gonna be Jho's love. Inagaw mo siya when in fact silang dalawa naman talaga sa isa't isa. You poisoned her with lies. Tingnan na lang natin kung matutuwa si Jho kapag nalaman na niya ang lahat lahat. Goodbye to your happiness Nico. I will tell Jho everything. Si Bea ang tunay niyang mahal, and that invented story of yours mawawala parang bula! Sinusumpa ko pagbabayaran mo tong lahat." Ate Ly
"Tingnan natin kung sino ang paniniwalaan at kakampihan ni Jhoana, ngayong engaged na kaming dalawa. Good thing bago mangyari ang lahat, wala ng habol yang kaibigan niyong nakaratay!" Nico
"How dare you to talk to Bea like that! It's so disgusting na kamag-anak kita!" Ella
Sinampal niya ng sobrang lakas si Nico.
Ate Den called the guards at pinalabas sina Nico.
Magproprotesta pa naman siya pero hinila na din siya nina Kiefer.
We waited and we waited na lumabas ang doctor ni Bea. While Jho is stable and walang malay.
I can't sleep knowing my two bestfriends are here in the hospital.
6 am na wala pa din kaming balita. Dumating na din sina Tita Det at Tita Lovel.
"Where's my daughter?" Tito Elmer
"Nasa operating room pa po." Den
"How about Jho?" Tita Det
"Nasa loob po ng room." Mitch
Pumasok naman sina Tita Lovel with Jho's doctor.
Naiwan naman kami sa labas pati sina Tita Det.
Mayamaya lang ay lumabas na ang Doctor ni Bea. After 16 hours.
"Sino pong pamilya ni Isabel Beatriz De Leon." Doctor
"Kami po." Kuya Loel.
Lumapit naman sila at kinausap ng doctor yung malayo samin.
Narinig ko naman na humagulhol si Tita Det.
And the next thing we knew....
Si Bea....
