-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~•~Nakarating na ako sa bahay ngunit walang ibang pumalibot sa isipan ko kundi pagtataka, bukod sa hindi nakasindi ang ilaw ay mukhang walang tao rin dito.Dali-dali akong nagtungo sa may pinto at walang alinlangan na binuksan iyon, only to find myself alone.“Nasaan kaya to?” Bulong ko sa sarili at saka nagtungo sa taas.There wasn't a sight of her as I searched the house, and I couldn't help but feel anxious and wonder about her reason.She–she left me…Just like what Emy did to me a few years ago…Grabbing my phone from my pocket, I quickly texted her number, and only to find my message unseen by her.Theo: Mein Liebling, where are you?-(KHALEED MAXIMUS FRANCISCO POV)-~♪~(If Theo came and asked you, don't tell him where I went.)“Khaleed.” Tawag ni Gelal habang ako'y naglalaro ng basketball.“Ano?” Tanong ko naman at saka tumingin rito. “Kanina ka pa tawag nang tawag.”“Nasaan si Eve?” Tanong nito pabalik habang siya'y nakasandal sa pader.“Aba,
-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~•~“I’m sorry, boyfriend?” Gelal asked as he furrowed his brows.I watched Callum nod at him as I held his arm, and it was clear to me that he's shocked, he just hides it.“Gelal.” He introduced myself.“A pleasure to meet you.” Sagot ni Callum at saka tumingin sa akin. “I'm just gonna take a shower upstairs, okay?”“Alright.” Bulong ko bago siya hayaang magtungo sa kwarto namin.Nang makaalis si Callum, pinanood ko itong kunin ang kanyang susi at saka nagtungo kay Deanna at saka hinalikan ang noo nito.“Daddy's going to leave now, be a good little girl okay?” He reminded and caressed her hair.“When will you be back?” She asked as she looked at him.“Soon, and don’t worry, I’ll bring you some toys and buy you your favourite fudge.” He answered and smiled.Oh that smile…“Can I come with you?” She asked again.“I'll let your Momma decide, my love.” He answered and looked at me solemnly.And just by his stare, hindi ko mapigilan ang hindi mata
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~The next morning~“Good morning, my love.” Panimula ni Evolet nang makababa na ako ng hagdan.“Hello, good morning.” Sagot ko naman at saka nagtungo kung nasaan ito.“Did you enjoy the party last night?” Tanong nito nang mahalikan ko ang kanyang noo.“I did, but I was only thinking of you.” Sagot ko naman at saka umupo sa tabi nito.“Aw, you missed me huh?” Biro nito.“Yeah, I did.” Sagot ko at saka siya hinalikan. “So much.”Niyakap ako nito at hindi ako nag-dalawang isip na gumanti rito, ngunit ang lahat ng nangyari kahapon ay sariwa pa sa ulo ko. At hindi ko malimutan kung paano ako tingnan ni Deanna at ni Emy kagabi.(Are you leaving, Daddy?)(Yes, I am darling. But, I'll be back..)(Tomorrow?)(Tomorrow…)“My love.” Tawag ni Evolet sa akin nang humiwalay ito sa yakap, na naging dahilan rin upang bumalik ako sa reyalidad.“What is it, my love?” Tanong ko at saka hinawi ang iilang pirasong buhok na nakaharang sa kanyang pisngi.“Are you going to wor
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~•~Nakarating kami sa isang parte ng bahay nila na kung saan walang gaanong tao, at hindi ko mapigilan ang inis na kanina ko pa nararamdaman.“What do you want to talk about?” I started. “Bakit ka nandito?” Tanong niya pabalik. “From what I know, hindi kita ininvite sa party ng anak ko.”“Ininvite ako ng kapatid mo.” Sagot ko. “And for the record, that's my child too.”“You're child?” She asked in disbelief. “She's not yours, Lal.”“She's mine.” I bravely answered. “You're both mine, Emerald.”“No.” She shook her head slightly. “We're not yours, and we broke up a long time ago. You already have a wife, so what's the big deal?”Hindi ako nakasagot dito dahil sa kanyang sinabi, ngunit isa lang naman ang pinunta ko sa party na ito.“Why can't you just let me see her and let me spend some time with her?” I asked. “It's not like I’m going to abduct her from you.”“I'm not going to allow that, and you have to leave whether you like it or not.” Sagot nito.“
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~•~Kasalukuyan akong nasa mall, namimili ng mga regalo para sa anak ni Emy nang makita ko si Axzie kasama ang mga anak niya.“Oh, Lal. Kamusta?” Tanong nito na may ngiti sa labi.“Ayos lang ako, kayo?” Tanong ko naman. “Kamusta na si Kaji?”“Hanggang ngayon hindi pa umuuwi, busy daw sa trabaho.” Sagot nito. “Mabuti na lang tinutulungan ako ni Kuya Max mag-alaga.”“That's good to know, malaki na rin sila.” Giit ko at saka sumilip sa kanyang likod na kung saan nagtatago ang dalawa.“Oo nga, pero hindi sila sanay sa maraming tao.” Sagot naman nito. “Nao-overwhelm sila.”“Masasanay din sila, kung hindi, hayaan mo na.” Sagot ko na lamang. “Nga pala, kamusta na kayo ng asawa mo?” Tanong nito muli. “Narinig ko buntis daw siya.”“Oo, buntis nga.” Sagot ko at saka ngumiti nang bahagya.“Congrats, magkakaroon ka na rin ng anak.” Giit nito na may ngiti.“Oo nga, excited na ako.” Sagot ko. “Oh siya, aalis na ako. May pupuntahan pa ako eh.”“Sige, mag-iingat ka.”
-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~♪~Kasalukuyan akong nasa balkonahe muli, at nilalasap ang simoy ng hangin habang tinitingnan ang buwan, at isang baso ng whiskey ang nasa kamay ko.“Theo, is everything alright?” She asked me for the fifth time.Ngunit hindi ko ito pinansin at sumimsim lang sa alak na hawak ko, hindi ko na rin alam kung ano ang pwede pang sabihin dito.“You’ve been avoiding me ever since Corlyn left, and I couldn't think of a reason for you to avoid me.” She stated. “I didn't do anything wrong or for you to get mad, but… I just want to say I’m sorry.”“Don't be.” I plainly answered before taking a sip once again.“Why not?” She asked again. “You’re like this because of me.”“No, no it's not.” I answered and faced her. “This is not your fault.”“Then why? Why are you avoiding me?” She asked again.“I have so many things in mind, and I don't want to open up.” I lied. “Especially with your state.”“You can at least talk to me, that way I can at least give you some comfor
-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~♪~“Where have you been? It's late.” Wika ni Lez nang makarating na kami sa bahay.It was 8:30 in the evening, and Deanna already slept while we head home. And I couldn't erase the scene from a while ago.(Emy…)(Anong ginagawa mo rito?)Everything felt different, and he was–he was so matured looking. Those cognac brown eyes that were once filled with affection, were now filled with anger and disdain.“I am asking you, Emy.” Giit ni Lez na nakapagpabalik sa akin sa reyalidad.“Galing kami sa kaibigan ko.” Sagot ko na lang. “Iaakyat ko na muna si Deanna.”Kahit na tinatawag pa ako nito ay hindi ko na siya pinansin pa, at basta na lang nagtungo at umakyat ng hagdan bitbit si Deanna.~§~“Saan kayo galing, te?” Tanong ni Clydel nang makita niya ako sa backyard.“Galing kami sa kaibigan ko. Nag-celebrate lang.” Sagot ko bago sumimsim sa hawak na basong may wine.“Bakit parang hindi ka masaya?” Tanong naman niya ulit at saka umupo sa tabi ko.“Pag
-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~•~As the car came to a halt in the driveway, hindi ko maiwasan ang kabahan dahil pamilyar na pamilyar ang bahay na nasa harap namin.Puta..“Let’s go.” She started as she opened the driver's door.Akmang sasagot pa ako ngunit lumabas na ito ng kotse, at hindi ko maiwasan ang pagpawisan ng malamig dahil sa nakikita at nararamdaman ko.“Ma, nasaan po tayo?” Tanong ni Deanna.“Nasa bahay tayo ni Tita Eve, nak.” Sagot ko na lang at saka lumabas ng kotse.Pinagbuksan ko na rin ng pinto si Deanna at pinalabas ito, and seeing my plants outside of the yard thriving had me teary-eyed.“Mommy, are you alright?” Tanong nito muli.“I’m fine, darling.” Sagot ko. “Tara na, pasok na tayo.”“Beautiful, isn't it?” Eve asked as she waited in front of the doorstep.“It is.” I answered with a small smile.Heading inside, the first thing I saw was the painting I painted for him. It was still hanging on the wall, yet everything around it changed.From the walls p
