Novel & Cerita Yours Truly In Letter

boses ng isang lalaki ito mula sa likod, at napatingin na ako sa kanya. "You have a letter, Miss Carolina." Nagtagpo ang kilay ko habang pinagmamasdan ang kamay ni Manong palapit sa akin. "Letter? At this hour?" I chuckled. Manong handed it to me. "Is this some kind of a joke? Are you the Midnight Postman? Tang-ina naman oh!" malutong na mura ko at pahid sa luha. Umalis na agad siya. Lumapit si Venette sa akin at mabilis kong binuksan ang sulat.

“Ingrid, do you even know who that letter is from?” “Hindi nga diba? Paulit-ulit? At kung alam ko man, sa tingin mo ba itatago ko 'yun?” I threw the letter on the table between us. “Kung totoo ‘to, sana binigay ko na lang sa’yo on the spot at sinabing, ‘Oh by the way, may side dish ako.’” Sarcastic kong pagkasabi 'yung huli. Tumayo naman siya ng dahan-dahan. “You don’t have to get sarcastic—”

Isang puting folder at isang sulat. Napakunot-noo ako. Una kong binasa ang letter. Dear Nona, If you're reading this... then I'm already somewhere above the clouds. Napangiti ako. Ganito talaga magsulat si Daniel at hindi na nagbago. First... thank you. For five wonderful years. Prestige One Events Asia wouldn't be where it is today without your dedication, creativity, and countless sleepless nights. Unti-unti akong natahimik.

“Letrang a kaya?” Umiling naman si Tj. “Two letters po ang need, Yaya, e,” sabi niya. “Ay, dalawa ba? Wait.” Pinagmasdan ko ulit ang mga letra. “Siguro itong O atsaka G na letra.” Turo ko sa dalawang letra. Tumango naman si Tj at agad na pinindot ang dalawang letra na sinabi ko. Napasigaw pa siya ng ‘yes’ dahil tama iyon.

Hinayaan niya muna akong kumalma bago niya pinabuksan sa akin ang sulat. Dear Ate Ysa, By the time you are reading this letter I am probably on my way to US. My aunt will take me there for my medication. I want to stay to take care of you but I'm sorry I can't anymore. They said we need to leave. I wrote this letter because I want to say the words I haven't said to you. I don't know if my spelling is correct or not but I'm hoping that you'll be able to understand it.

tanong nito nang mapansin na hindi okay ang dalaga. Ngunit hindi umimik si Anna at iniabot ang isang puting sobre. “What is this, Anna?” kunot-noong tanong ni Mr. Lee at binuksan ang sobre. “Mr. Lee, this is not a letter of resignation. So, there’s no need to be concerned,” pagkaklarado ni Anna. “Then what is this?” “It’s a request letter, and I won’t come here unless absolutely necessary. I’ll write in my own space and send my manuscripts once they’re finished.”

I love you. Sincerely yours, Einalem December

Praning na rin ako. "Alam kong hindi, Grantt. Sa style of typing palang, alam kong hindi si Greel iyon. Pero how about the letter from him, ha? Sigurado akong galing sa kanya ang letter na iyon, sulat kamay niya iyon!" Greel is a romantic guy who often writes me love letters, especially on our monthly anniversaries or when he's feeling affectionate. I recognize his handwriting so well that I can tell he wrote that letter.

It was Poppy’s. My heart pounded as I unfolded the letter. Napalunok ako dahil hindi ako puwedeng magkamali. Halata pa sa sulat niya na nanginginig ang kamay niya dahil sa ayos ng mga letra. And the first six words, though simple, hit me like a punch to the gut. Dear Kuya Faith at sa lahat,

Lever's point of view "For my son, Lever Winchester, stay handsome as your father Rifle Winchester. I've been seeking for a justice for my parents and grandfather, but I couldn't stay with your side, I can't see you growing up. But I confidence, your mother won't neglect you. You're my last asset, until we meet my Lever Winchester," I read on the paper. He wrote a letter, before he died for me? Tinignan ko ang lumang papel na hawak ko, muli kong binasa ang huling sentence sa letter.
