I live my life for you (BOOK 2)

Bea

"Jhoana anak?" Det

Magkasama sila Jho and Nico ngayon. Hindi ako naniniwala na may relasyon na ulit sila kasi alam kong mahal ako ni Jho

Pero ang sakit lang isipin na iba na ang laging kasama ng taong minsan mo ring nakasama sa araw araw

"Hello po tita, I missed you po" Jho and hugs mom

"Ako rin anak, kami nina tito mo. Dalaw ka rin minsan sa bahay ha?" Det

"A-ah s-sure po kung may time" Jho stutters

"Sige anak una na kami ha? Take care" Det

"Bye po tita ingat po kayo" Jho

Naglakad na kami palayo ni mom

"Bea do you know him? Siya ba yung sinabi mong ex ni Jho?" Det

"Yes mom, he is Nico"

"Jho don't love him" Det

"Po?"

"I can feel it, alam ko ang nararamdaman ni Jho ngayon. She's confused" Det

"Because she loves me"

"Don't expect too much anak, it's still in Jho" Det

Nang makauwi na ako dito sa condo namin ni Jho galing sa mall kasama si mom biglang may kumatok sa pinto

Binuksan ko naman agad yun

"Jho.....hey I missed you" sabi ko at lalapit sana pero agad lang ito dumeretso sa sala

"Do you want anything Jho? Wait I'll get you your fave snack"

"Sit here beside me" Jho

Agad naman akong kinabahan dun pero I have a guess na pag uusapan namin yung tungkol dito sa condo

Umupo naman ako sa tabi niya

May binigay siyang brown envelope sa'kin

"Read it then sign it right after to end everything between us" Jho

Magiging solo owner nalang ako ng condo namin ni Jho at mawawala na ang pangalan niya sa certificate

"I don't want to sell this condo with you that's why I decided to do this action better" Jho

May tumulong luha na mula sa mga mata ko

"You're really c...cutting off e...everything Jho? Is it t...that e..easy to f..forget t..the t..things we s...shared together? The j..joy and s..sorrows? A...akala ko ba Jho w..we'll f...fight together? Y...you surrendered Jho"

"It's just a condo with memories Bea. And why do you keep on saying these things eh matagal na tayong wala? Stop acting like I'm still yours. Wala ng tayo Bea" Jho

"I'll just d...die if I'm the o...only one l..living here and r..reminiscing t..the past.......I now agree Jho. You can freely sell this condo to whoever you want, in one condition"

"What's the condition" agad na sagot ni Jho

"Live with me in this condo for a week. Then after that week I'll sign the papers immediately and move out from this condo so that your buyer can check it clear"

"7 days straight?" Jho

"Exactly"

"Deal" Jho

"Start now then"

"Not now, I'll comeback here with a few of my things good for 7 days" Jho

"Don't take too long Jho"

"I won't" Jho

Then umalis na si Jho

After the 7 days what will gonna happen to us? Will we be given another chance to continue what we had or wala na talaga

Little fast forward

Jho

Nandito kami sa Batangas ni Nico tapos pagkatapos ko dito pupuntahan ko si Bea para gawin ang deal namin

Hindi ko alam kung anong meron dito pero nandito kasi mga close namin pati yung family ni Nico eh wala namang party

Habang nakaupo ako dito sa balcony lumapit si papa

"Anak masaya ako para sa'yo at sa wakas magiging masaya ka na habang buhay" John

"Ha? Bakit naman po?"

"Basta magiging masaya kana anak" John

Ano ba tong sinasabi ni Papa hindi ko gets eh

Nandito kami lahat sa pool area kasi tinawag nila ako. Both families namin ni Nico nandito rin, ano ba to?

Biglang nalang lumuhod si Nico sa harap ko at binuksan ang maliit na box na may lamang ring

"Jhoana will you marry me?" straight to the point na sabi ni Nico

Ano?! Marry?!

"Yes" sabi ng mga tao around me
"Say yes anak"
"Go Jho yes na yan"

Si papa nag gegesture rin na mag yes ako habang si mama nakangiti lang ito pero wala siyang sinasabing mag yes ako

Yung family ni Nico very supportive sila samin at puro yes lang ang naririnig ko ngayon

"Yes"

"Yes? Yes! Whooaaa" Nico at sinuot na ang singsing sa'kin

Hindi ko alam kung ano na itong pinasok ko. Makakasal ako sa taong di ko mahal?

Nandito kami ni Nico ngayon sa labas kung saan walang makakarinig samin

"Thank you for saying yes Jho, I can't wait to live with you forever. You know what ready na lahat pati house natin sinisumulan ko na itong ip-" Nico

"Nico I don't love you"

"B-but you're getting married with me Jho. Mahal natin ang isa't isa surprised kalang siguro sa nangyari kanina" Nico

"I know but I will still marry you"

"Yes! Thank you Jho" Nico

"But I'm asking you a condition"

"Ano yun Jho?" Nico

"Give me a week to prepare"

"Of course Jho sama-" Nico

"No. Let me be alone within a week, no communications"

"Jho diko kaya" Nico

"Let's breakup now pero babalikan kita"

"What? You're now my fiancé Jho" Nico

"Yeah but let me be single within this week"

"Ok but please keep on wearing our engagement ring kasi we're getting married na real soon" Nico

I sighed

"Ok"

"Where will you go ba Jho?" Nico

"Somewhere home"
