My Willow Man (Book 1&2) (Unedited)

CHAPTER 74

IT'S BEEN three months since Sandro and I finally broke up.

After I gave him back the engagement ring he gave me, hindi nya na din ako kinausap pa.

Lumipat ako ng Makati para dito kami mag-umpisa ulit ni Alex.

I had some savings naman kaya kahit papaano, nakapag-umpisa ako ng maliit na business.

Para din hindi ko maiwanan si Alex sa ibang tao, dahil na-trauma na ako sa nangyari kay Carla noon.

I am selling food packages online, marami naman bumibili kahit papaano.

But I decided to hide my name and Alex para hindi ako mahanap.

Kahit mahirap, hindi na ako nagpatulong sa mga Marcoses.

I decided to cut ties with them, si Anna lang ang nirereplyan ko and she promised me na di niya sabihin sa kanila kung saan man kami ni Alex.

Last thing I heard about Sandro and Diane was they probably got together.

If sila naman talaga ang naka-tadhana para sa isa't isa.

Bakit ko naman pipilitin yung sarili ko di ba.

Baka nga hindi totoo ang willow man. Kathang isip lang ng mga tao na umaasa sa pag-ibig na walang hanggan.

"Knock knock" Ravi said habang papasok ng apartment namin ni Alex.

"Ravi!!" Alex exclaimed at tumakbo papalapit kay Ravi.

"Hello handsome boy" Nagpakarga naman agad si Alex sa kanya.

"You're getting heavier na" Ravi said at ibinababa agad si Alex.

"Oh... this is for you" He handed him a box of donuts kaya tuwang tuwa naman si Alex.

"Yehey! Look mommy!" Alex showed me the donuts.

"Ops. one donut lang after dinner" I said.

"Yes.. mommy.. thank you mommy" He gently said at inilagay sa ref ang box.

He is growing to be such a gentleman.

"Oh? Anong ginagawa mo dyan?" Ravi asked at lumapit sa akin.

"Ito, nagpe-prepare lang para sa mga orders bukas" I said.

"Hmmm mukhang masarap yan ah, order ako ha. Dalawang buffalo wings" He said.

"Hay nako, araw-araw ka ng umu-order sa akin" I smiled at him.

"Sarap mo magluto eh."

He said at tumabi na kay Alex na naglalaro.

Ravi moved here in Makati ng malaman nya na dito kami titira ni Alex.

Sila lang ni Anna ang pinagkaka-tiwalaan ko ngayon.

Naging sandalan ko sya ng mga panahon na halos bumitaw na ako sa sobrang sakit.

He became my bestfriend again.

"Althea.. mahal na mahal kita..."

"You're the only want I want to marry, I want to spend the rest of my life with you and Alex"

"Althea.. I'm sorry.. I am in love with Dia--"

"NO!" I Exclaimed

I woke up and it was all just a dream.

No..

It was once a dream but it became a nightmare for me.

I looked at Alex and he was sleeping peacefully.

I kissed his forehead at naupo.

I still can't forget what happened.

Saan ako nagkulang?
