Chapter 36

Hilary POV

AS THAT DAY happened everything change. My life changed even my world. Noon umiikot lang ang mundo ko sa mga akala. Mga maling akala kumbaga. Ang daming what if's sa utak ko. But now, now that I have him again, we have each other, my world goes around on its axis. I never thought that this moment would happen. Akala ko dati hindi na ako sasaya pa, akala ko hanggang dun nalang ang role ko sa mundo, ang magmahal, masaktan at mag move on. Pero isang maling akala lang pala iyon.

Maybe God had planned this after all. Scratch that word. He planned this in the very beginning. Seeing them happy makes me happy too. Ang mga magulang ko, mga kapatid, si Sky, si Blessy. New part of my family.

Si Lawrence na laging sumisira ng masayang moment namin ni Sky sa fake cough niya.

Si Prince na medyo tahimik lang, si Sacky na hanggang ngayon maingay parin si Pam na patay na patay parin sa jowa niya, at si Danica may lihim na pagtingin kay Lawrence. Oo, this past few days ramdam kong may pagtingin si Danica sa kaibigan ko. She even asks questions about Lawrence, like what type of person he is, kung anong hilig niya, kung anong gusto niya sa babae and his favorites. I was wondering at first, dahil hindi ko masyadong kilala kung sino talaga si Danica but when we had our vacation palagi ko siyang nakikita na nakatingin kay Lawrence and when he glances her, nag-iiwas ito ng tingin.
Mga in denial talaga. But I know there is a right time for them.

I am hoping that Lawrence would realize it someday.

I close my real estate business para maituon ko ang buong atensyon sa MMT at sa anak namin. It was hard to close it dahil malaki-laki ang naging panimula ko but good thing because it's a start up business and hindi pa kami masyadong nagkakaroon ng expenses and liabilities.

My life is happier than it ever had. Wala na yata akong mahihiling pa. Or maybe meron pa. And that day is yet to come.

"Bakit ang tahimik ng Pie ko ngayon?" Saad nito habang nakayakap sa likuran ko.
Nandito kami sa veranda ng bahay nakatingin sa garden kung nasaan nagpi-picnic ang pamilya.

"I am just thinking about us." Mahinang sambit ko at sumandal sa kanya.

This feeling is so relaxing. At parang inaantok ako. And yeah, sleeping beside him is so comfy.

"Gezz you're enjoying it huh." He teased ngumit lang ako.

"My family would arrive this afternoon." Paalala niya. I curled my eyebrows saying I didn't get what he means.

"Oh, I mean, mamamanhikan ako, kami sayo. Just like the old way of you know. Before wedding." Napa ahh nalang ako sa inusal nito.

"Nak! Samahan niyo kami rito!" Tawag ni Papa sa garden tumango lang ako at nagpunta roon. Sumunod naman si Sky at hinila ko.

"Mama ako po ang magiging flower girl niyo. Then si kuya Bryle po ang magiging ring bearer. That would be great, right Papa Sky?" Sabad ni Blessy sa usapan. We're talking about that wedding. The brain of this 8 years old girl.

"Yeah, that's great baby." Puna naman ni Sky na tumatango pa.
"So, when is the wedding?" Untag ni Lawrence na kakarating lang kasama si Prince.

"September dude." Sagot ni Sky.
Someone's missing.

"Nasan si Danica?" Sabat ko. Umiling lang ito at nagkibit balikat lamang si Prince.

"Pie, sino si Bryle?" Untag nito sa'kin.

Nasa garden parin kami at naglalaro ang mga isip bata, feeling bata at literal na bata ng habulan.

"Pamangkin ko, anak ni ate Jane. Ba't mo natanong?" Sagot ko. Tumingala ito sa langit. It has a nice weather today.
