Most awaited.Kairos Gregor Rouvin Consunji – Dela Monte VejarDecember 31, 2007I pulled up in front of Catherine's house. I wanted to see her after a long vacation with my family. I felt the need to because I've missed her so much. I still couldn't believe that we passed the friendzone status. It was too much to handle – my feelings for her pero buti na lang at nasabi ko iyon. It was something that I should be proud of because... well, I'm not really good at expressing my feelings.I was pretty happy because I get to see her again. She was always asking me kung may naaalala daw ba akong nangyari a few days ago – sabi niya, importante raw iyon at kailangan kong maalala pero hindi ko talaga alam. Hanggang sa sinabi na lang niya na h'wag na lang daw isipin. Catherine is weird. Ang naalala ko lang naman kasi talaga ay kung paano ako pinagalitan ni Papa dahil nakukulangan siya sa ginagawa ko para sa company.It's as if, hindi ko talaga ginagawa ang trabaho. Hindi ko kasalanan kung iniisi

Nothing happenedKairos Gregor Rouvin Dela Monte – Consunji – Vejar's"Cachi..."Catherine Fe looked at me. Nakaupo kami sa waiting lounge kasama ang buong pamilya ko at naghihintay kami kay Danielle. Maga ang mga mata ni Caterine pero nagawa niya akong tingnan."Stop saying sorry. Lalo lang akong nasasaktan." Bulong niya sa akin. Hinawakan ko na lang ang kamay niya. I wanted to be with her because I know she needs me, kahit na ako pa ang may kasalanan nang sakit na nararamdaman niya, alam ko rin na pwedeng ako ang makaalis niyon. I noticed that she was looking at Mariake who was sitting with her Dad. Nakayakap lang si Iake sa braso ng Daddy niya. Nakukuyom ko ang mga palad ko.Ako dapat ang katabi niya. Ako dapat ang karamay niya pero alam kong kapag lumapit ako sa kanya lalo lang siyang masasaktan. I could hear her heart breaking from afar and I want to mend it but how can I? Naging ganito siya nang dahil sa akin.Lumabas iyong doctor. Napatayo kaming lahat."Doc, how's my girl?" I

SleeplessKairos Gregor Rouvin Dela Monte – Consunji – VejarI couldn't sleep that night. Cachi let the kids stay with me that night. Nasa bahay rin siya at kasama namin si Dione at Pan. They were talking while I was with the boys and we were watching a movie. Rom was leaning beside me. HInahaplos ko ang ulo niya katulad nang ginagawa ko noon kay Danielle habang nanonood kami ng TV. Rem was the more independent one. He was just sitting beside me while eating his popcorn."Do you think, Ada would like this movie?" Rom asked me. "Papa, you are sad. I know why. It's 'cause you miss Danielle. We missed her too. Too bad we didn't have the chance to give her the lego tower we made for her.""Yeah. I mean, we could've been great playmates. Plus, Mommy said that we can be the best brothers for the girls. Uncle Daddy told me that I am a Kuya and he said that a Kuya should always protect the sister whatever happens. He doesn't have a sister. He only has Tito Luigi but they are great buddies."G

Nag-wonder nga ako akala ko nag-alis ikaw."Nakahiga ako sa kama habang si Ada ay nakatabi sa akin. My very big belly is exposed in front of my daughter's eyes. I have no idea if she knew that I am pregnant or she really believed what Maria Juana told her these past few weeks, that I have eaten a big chunk of watermelon at na-impacho ako.Maria Juana is putting a lot of things inside my baby's head. Hindi ko rin naman siya masisi, maigi na rin siguro iyon para hindi masabi ni Ada sa Papa niya na buntis nga ako."Hindi pa pwede, Baby kasi nga nagre-rest pa si Mama."She was drawing something in her paper."I like it when you're on tv. Kasi you're very pretty po. Just like Ate!"Napangiti ako nang banggitin niya ang Ate niya. I cupped her face tapos ay nagpa-kiss ako."Ay, Mama, lalabas na ba si Baby Dog? Kasi nagbibili na si Tita Mary at Tita Clari ng mga things.""Oo, malapit na,

Her hands were clasped in a way na hindi mahahalata na nanginginig siya. I know her, she is my wife. I know how scared she is now and I cannot blame her. I know how much of an asshole I am. I know how much I have hurt her. I know these things and yet, I cannot prevent them from happening to her because, well because of the wrong choices I have made in my life."Well, that's not true." Biglang sabi niya. "I felt like I was the wife but at the back of my mind, I was never sure if you love me or not or you were just being nice. But to me, those were the best moments of my life, Kairos but that all went away because you told me that it was always been her. How about that huh?"May pait sa boses ni Mariake. I sighed again. She stood up and fixed the pillows inside the crib."Bakit pa ng aba tayo mag-uusap? Alam ko naman, Kairo
