The Sunset In Paradise (Seduction Series #3)

Chapter 30

Damn, it's been 8 years. Grabe, nakakapagod pala talaga magtrabaho dito sa company, but it's okay as long as I get to help my family. And I know that daddy's proud of me, from heaven.

"Pst, Leah Angeline!" Bungad ni Lucas.

"What? I'm busy." I said, while writing some documents.

"Pupunta ka sa birthday ni Derrick, diba?" He asked.

"Yes. What time is it again?" I asked, now looking at him.

"6pm, sa bahay daw niya."

"Yes, okay. I'll go. Diba pupunta kayo ng girlfriend mo?" I asked.

"Oo, pupunta kami ni Pia. Sasama din si Nathan and Elle." Sabi niya.

"When are you planning to propose to Sophia?" I asked.

"Secret." He chuckled before going out.

Grabe, nakaka-inggit. Lahat sila masaya lovelife, si Pia and Lucas, Nath and Elle, Sean and 'yung Gwyneth yata 'yun, and si Derrick and Kaitlyn. Mag-asawa na nga sila eh. May kambal pa.

I was still writing, until my phone rang. Elle is calling me.

"Hello?" I answered.

"OMG girl, pupunta ka sa party later diba? Guess what!" Sabi niya.

"What?" Agad na kumunot ang noo ko.

"Philip will be there, on the way daw siya galing pa siyang California. Grabe!" Pagbalita niya.

Tila nanlamig ang buong katawan ko, he'll... Be there... Akala ko... Akala ko nasa Canada siya, pero bakit galing siyang California? At bakit sinasabi sa'kin ni Elle 'to?

"And so?" I said, trying to sound like I don't care.

Well, wala naman talaga akong paki.

"Wala sinabi ko lang, kasi malay mo maging kayo ulit, diba? OMG! Comeback na ba 'to?" She teased.

"Oh shut up, Elle. It's been 8 years, malabo nang ako pa rin ang mahal niya. His feelings would fade out for me you know." I rolled my eyes, and leaned on the chair.

"Eh ikaw? Siya pa rin ba?"

Nanahimik ako.

Oo. Oo, siya pa rin. I don't know why, but I still like him. These past 8 years, siya lang ang gusto at mahal ko. Wala nang iba, hindi ko alam pero... Masakit isipin na paano kung hindi na niya ako mahal? Kung wala na siyang nararamdaman para sa'kin?
