Chapter 14---The 3rd member Ethan Dale Mertinez

__________

Steffany’s POV.

Pagkaalis ni Max kanina pumasok na rin ako sa loob. Dumiretso ako sa office ng School Administrator which is Ethan Dale Mertinez.

.................................

Flashback...

‘‘You’re letting go?’’ Nagulat ako sa nagsalita. How did he know I'm here? Kahit ‘di ko lingonin kilala ko 'yan.

"Ethan..." Sabi ko at lumapit sa kanya.

"Right, Steff.." At niyakap n'ya 'ko.

"How did you know I'm here?" Tanong ko at tuluyan ng lumabas.

"Every year, two months before his death anniversary. I request the guards to call me if a certain girl named Steffany Rue Villasenior will come. After almost 5 years, my long wait is over...you came." Mahabang explaination ni Ethan. I just smile at Ethan after kong i-lock ang pinto ng monumento ni Frye.

"Same old Ethan advance kung mag-isip ng mga possibilities." At pinasingkitan ng mata, he just chuckled.

"You're back to the old Steffany I used to know at hindi 'yung nakita ko the last time I saw you. I'm happy that your back. Guess…you finally moved on." At sabay na kaming lumakad palabas.

"Care to join me for a cup of coffee?" Aya n'ya sakin.

"Sure. Did you bring your car?" Wala kasi akong makitang ibang sasakyan, maliban sa'kin.

"No! On my rush I just get a cab after I walk out of that restaurant. Supposedly I'm on a dinner meeting with Dad when the guard called." Umiiling na wika n'ya.

"Haha…Tito Miguel most be fuming mad back there." Natatawang wika ko.

"Maybe not, sinabi kong pupuntahan kita."

"Same Ethan, dinadahilan ang mga kaibigan." Strikto kasi si Tito Miguel kay Ethan, but when we are the reason lumalambot 'yun.

Mahal kami ni Tito eh. Kaya si Ethan kami ginagawang excuse mula bata pa kami.

"You drive?" Tumango s’ya kaya hinagis ko ang susi at una ng pumasok.

Nandito kami ngayon sa isang coffee shop at nasa may pinakasulok. Iwas na rin sa mga nakakakilala sa'min. Ewan kung may makakarecognized pa sa'kin but Ethan, agaw atensyon 'yan. The 3rd member of mavens.
