Dear Sandro

CHAPTER 37

"DEAR SANDRO,

Ito ba yung magiging unang pagsubok sa relasyon natin?

Sana wag kang bumitaw agad.

-Your Clarion"

----------------------

Libby was standing in front of us dala-dala ang isang bag.

"Oh hija." Tita Liza greeted her.

"How are you?" Lumapit naman si Libby sa kanya at nakipag-beso.

Nasa likuran lang ako ni Sandro at nanonood sa kanila.

"I'm good, Tita. I'm just glad that dad was able to overcome this." She said to her.

"Me too, hija" Hinawakan naman ni Tita Liza ang kamay ni Libby and she put on this sad face.

"Sandro? Aren't you gonna greet your fiancé?" Tita Liza asked Sandro and huminga naman ng malalim si Sandro.

"It's okay, Tita. Magkasama po kami kanina." Libby defended him.

"I see. Anyways, sabay na tayong umakyat sa kwarto ng dad mo." Tita Liza said and they both looked at us.

Libby was grinning at me and pinigilan ko talagang hindi magpahalata na naaasar ako sa mukha nya.

"Sandro, aren't you coming to see your future father in law?" Tita Liza asked habang nakataas ang kilay.

Luh akala ko mabait sya.

"Mom...can I talk to you first?" Sandro told her.

Huminga naman ng malalim si Tita Liza at tiningnan ako ng masama.

"Can it wait?" She asked Sandro.

Napaatras naman ako sa kaba.

"Mom...please." Sandro was pleading.

"Uh... sige po, mag-usap muna kayo. Halika ka na, Clarion, sabay na tayong umakyat." Libby said smiling.

Wala naman akong magagawa kasi parang magiging seryoso yung discussion nila.

I was about to come with Libby but Sandro stopped me.

"Wait." He said habang nakahawak sa kamay ko.

Masama naman ang tingin ni Tita Liza and Libby sa amin.

"Sandro! What are you doing?! " Tita Liza exclaimed.

I looked at Sandro at mukhang sasabihin nya na ang totoo.

Naisip ko naman si dad, hindi pwede ngayon.

Baka mapano si dad.

Hindi ko kakayanin na mawala din si dad sa akin.

"Mom, she is the - -"

"The maid of honor po." I interrupted him.

Sandro was stunned and looked at me confused sa sinabi ko.

"What?" Tita Liza asked me.
