BONUS CHAPTER
"Cadesia?"
Magkasalubong ang kilay nito nang makita ako.
"What are you doing here?!" Galit nitong tanong sa akin. Napahawak ako sa dibdib dahil sa gulat. "Kuya, why is Erin here? You guys broke up! I don't want to see this girl's face again!"
"Cadesia, calm down," hinawakan ni Cadmus ang kanyang kapatid dahil nagliliyab ang mga mata nito habang nakatingin sa akin. "We are back together again and we are getting married soon."
"What?!" Bulaslas nito. "How come?! You... You guys broke up and this woman is a cheater like Amber!" Dinuro-duro niya pa ako kaya agad na kinuha ni Cadmus ang kanyang kamay.
"She didn't cheat, okay..." Bumuntong hininga si Cadmus bago tumingin sa akin, tila nagtatanong kung itutuloy niya ba ang sasabihin o ako na lang ang magsabi. Tinanguan ko siya, pagsenyas na pumapayag akong siya na ang magsabi.
Ikinwento niya ang lahat kay Cadesia na halos malaglag na ang eyeballs sa gulat ng revelations ni Cadmus sa kanya. "Oh my gosh, really?!" Gulat niyang tanong at napahawak sa bibig. "I'm sorry for calling you a bitch, Ate Erin!" Nagmadali itong bumaba sa sahig at paulit-ulit na nagbow sa akin.
Nataranta tuloy ako dahil alam kong nahihirapan siya sa suot niyang stiletto kaya agad ko siyang tinulungan para makatayo.
"I'm really sorry!" Pagpapaumanhin muli nito. "I'm sorry I ignored you sa tiangge! Huhu, I was just really mad! But I really mean it when I said I would choose you over my brother. But I never expected you would leave us like that so..." Nagbadya ang luha sa kanyang mga mata kaya agad ko siyang niyakap. Napakapit naman siya sa akin.
Ang tingin sa akin ni Cadmus ay makinang. Ang labi niya rin ay maaabot na ang langit sa kakangiti.
"I'm glad we are okay now." Cadesia cried. I shushed her and caressed her wet cheeks.
"It's okay now..." Pagpapakalma ko rito.
"Should we go see mom today? I want mom to see the three of us together. I missed us." Cadesia sobbed. Sabay kaming napayakap ni Cadmus dito. "Oh wait! I want to call my boyfriend too, I'll tell her about what happened and maybe he can go with us."
"I want to meet him too." Cadmus said, I saw how his jaw clenched.
Agad ko siyang tinampal at sinamaan ng tingin. Parang siya, hindi siya nagkagusto sa babae ah?! Nasa tamang edad na rin naman si Cadesia.
"What?" Kunwari'y clueless na tanong niya tsaka tumawa. "Kidding aside, I really want to meet him. We need to talk. Boy's talk." Ngumisi ito.
"Just try, Kuya! I will burn you alive." Sinamaan ng tingin ni Cadesia ang kuya niya habang patuloy na dina-dial ang numero ng kanyang nobyo. "Yes hi!" Sa wakas ay sumagot na ito. "I want you to come here. Kuya and his fiancee wants to see you."
Hapon na nang makapunta kami sa sementeryo. Ang Japanese na boyfriend ni Cadesia ay kabadong kabado sa mabigat na presensya ni Cadmus. Ang loko-lokong kuya naman ay tuwang tuwa sa reaksyon ng nobyo ng kanyang kapatid.
"Cadmus! Stop glaring at him!" Saway ko at sinamaan siya ng tingin. "You're scaring him!"
"I'm not!" Natatawang sabi nito at nagtaas pa ng kamay habang kasalukuyan kaming naglalakad para hanapin ang puntod ng kanyang ina.
"Sa susunod, gusto ko puntod naman ni mama at papa ang puntahan natin."
"After this, then?" Cadmus held my hand.
I smiled and nodded.
"Can I go?" Cadesia heard what we're talking about. She gave us the puppy look so I laughed and nodded. She's so happy today!
"Hi mom," bati agad ni Cadmus nang makaupo na kaming apat sa harapan ng ina. "It's been awhile since I bought her here. Did you miss her? The last time I talked about her I was crying my eyes out because I was heartbroken but now I couldn't ask for more because my heart is full." He smiled sweetly and looked at me as he brushed his fingers in my cheeks and the strands of my hair.
"Hello po, sorry po kung pinaiyak ko ang anak niyo and I made you upset. Siguro, may chance po na mangyari iyon ulit but I promise you that I will never leave him again." Ngumiti ako.
"Right! Don't ever leave me again!" Ngumuso na parang bata si Cadmus tsaka ako niyakap.
"Akala niyo ma, si Kuya lang? Meron din ako, this is Riku Agusaki, my boyfriend. We met on Japan while I'm trying to be an independent woman like you. He's very sweet!"
"H-Hello po... Magandang hapon." Baluktot pa ang pag-Tagalog nito pero ayos na rin. Alam kong pinaghirapan niya iyon.
Sunod naming pinuntahan ang puntod ni mama at papa na magkatabi lamang.
"Hi ma'am, sir," kumunot ang noo ko nang unang magsalita si Cadmus. "First I want to take you for giving our Erin a chance to live in this world and for guiding her above. Thank you. Today I want to ask, if it's okay, you have no choice..." Ngumisi ito sa akin. "I want to marry your daughter, ma'am and sir Crisostomo. I love her so much."
Pinanood ko lamang siya roon habang ako ay nakangiti. I hope my parents are happy from the above now.
"I promise you, with my whole heart and god as our witness, I will love your daughter unconditionally and I won't let go of our string. Please guide our relationship so we won't argue that much after marrying each other. Even you can't answer now, I hope it's a yes. I want to be her husband and be a father of her future children and I promise you I will give them the life they always deserved. Thank you so much." Dagdag pa nito.
His words made me and Cadesia tear up.
I was never wrong for choosing this man. I will never be.
"Ate Erin, ako ninang ng anak niyo ha!" Jarell smiled at me. Gabi na nang makaalis siya sa bahay namin.
"Oo ba! Basta invited kami sa kasal niyo ng bagong boyfriend mo!"
Ngumisi ito. "Bagong boyfriend." Ulit niya sabay tawa. "Yes, you guys are invited. Sana hindi kayo magulat sa groom."
"Sino ba ang groom? He's so lucky to have you as his wife." Niyakap ko siya.
"Secret! Basta punta ka ah!" Kumaway na ito para magpaalam sa akin kaya kumaway na rin ako pabalik. Tuluyan na siyang nakalabas ng bahay namin, bumukod kami sa mansion.
"What do you want to name our precious little one?" Cadmus kissed my ears from behind.
"I want to name her Victoria Fiorella. Para elegante. Victoria Fiorella Arcajante." Ngumiti ako sa kanya.
"Victoria Fiorella Crisostomo Arcajante." Pagbanggit niya sa buong pangalan nito. "I like that."
Nagulat na lamang ako nang bigla niya akong buhatin!
"Saan mo ako dadalhin?" Nanlalaki ang mga mata kong tanong sa kanya.
"Gagawa pa tayo ng kasunod ni Victoria." Nakangising sabi nito kaya agad ko siyang tinampal, namumula na ang buong pagkatao ko!
"Hindi pa nga siya lumalabas!" Sigaw ko rito.
"Ah basta," he kissed my lips. "Get ready baby, I will not let you sleep tonight."
