Joanna's POV

Natatanaw ko mula sa malayo ang nakaluhod na si Ally sa harap ng puntod ni Tita.

Nanatili parin siyang nakatingin sa puntod habang patuloy sa pagluluksa. Sa pag-alis ni Matthew ay dahan-dahan naman akong pumunta sa kinaroronan niya.

Even if my hands are trembling I manage to put my hands on her shoulder and I slowly back hugged her tightly.

"Bes, sorry I'm late." Mahinang turan ko

Dahan-dahan niya akong nilingon.

"Bes..." She smiled at me but still I can see sorrowfulness in her eyes. "Akala ko hindi ka pupunta." She hug me back.

"Matthew told me about what happened Ally. Condolence..."

Napayuko na din ako. I'm so sad for Tita specially for my Bestfriend Ally.

"Bes... W- wala na si Mama... She left me... Just like that... *cries* masaya pa siya... Before she l-left me... M-masaya pa kami before she left... B-but now... Wala na si Mama... *cries*" patuloy na pag-iyak ni Ally ang tanging naririnig ko.

I didn't say any word instead I hug her tightly and just let her cry on my shoulder.

"There's no M-mom that I'll call to. There's no Mom that will hug me tightly and k-kiss me on my cheeks before I leave for work. There's no Mom that will s-stay by my side like you do, Joanna." Tiningnan niya ako habang pinipilit niya ang sariling tumahan.

Pinatayo ko siya mula sa pagkaka upo sa damo.

"Don't worry Ally. I know na masaya si Tita. Always remember that Tita will always be here with you as always." Tinuro ko ang dibdib niya sa may bandang puso.

"You're right Joanna... Alam kong laging nandito si Mama. Thank you for being here beside me. Thanks for staying by myside. In happiness even in sadness..."

I held her hands.

"Ally... I gotta tell you something..." I looked at her directly in the eyes and she did the same.

" What is it?"

"A-Ally... I'm sorry but I guess I won't stay by yourside any longer. Because I'm going to Italy tomorrow. Pero kahit na pumunta man ako sa Italy, lagi kitang kakamustahin Ally."

I saw her emotions changed into more deeper sadness...

"So your leaving too... Iiwan mo rin pala ako Joanna." Malungkot niyang turan

"But I'm going to Italy for my own good Ally. I hope you understand..."

"Yes, I do understand. You're free to go Joanna.. Syempre ayaw ko namang magdusa ang Bestfriend ko dahil lang sa sakit mong 'yan. I know in time, you'll come back and we will live with our happy lives." She hugged me again with a smiling face although her eyes are swollen.

"Thanks for understanding Ally. Magpakatatag ka lang for yourself. I will always be here beside you... It may not literally means beside but trust me. Lagi lang akong nandyan for you Ally."

"Thank you Joanna... You really are my Bestfriend. Thank you for still staying even if your in pain with your situation. Dahil magpapakatatag ako, you should always be strong... For yourself. Para soon magkakasama ulit tayo."

"I will do that also Ally. Hopefully I can cure this sickness. I really hope... So I can stay with you longer Ally." Tipid akong ngumiti

"Don't loose hope.. Nandito rin ako for you and ofcourse God is always there to guide,care and protect you. Tiwala lang Bes." She smiled at me too.
