CHAPTER FIFTEEN

ISHAY ARCANWAY

(PRESENT)

Dumating ako sa restaurant na ibinook ni Mrs. Vivar para sa amin ni Love Andrei Lee. Four months ago noong kinausap ko si Mrs. Vivar at sinabing payag na ‘kong magpakasal. I had also laid out my condition—the financial assistance I needed for my family’s situation.

At the time, however, she said it wasn’t the right moment. Kabe-break lang daw kasi Love Andrei Lee sa nobya niya, and she didn’t think it was fair to immediately thrust him into the engagement that had previously fallen through. Ganunpaman, ibinigay niya pa rin ang tulong pinansyal na kailangan ko kapalit ng paghihintay ko.

Ang sabi niya, maghintay raw ako ng mga apat na buwan then muli niyang kakausapin ang apo niyang si Love Andrei tungkol sa engagement. Huwag daw akong mag-alala dahil sa mga oras na ‘yon ay matutuloy na dahil siya na raw ang magdedesisyon para sa amin. She explained that the waiting period was to allow her grandson some time to heal and adjust, so he wouldn’t feel

    THE PASTCHAPTER ONE: DR. LEELOVE ANDREI LEE(Eight months ago)“Good morning, Dr. Lee.”I gave the student who greeted me a slight nod as I continued walking down the hallway. Bukod sa pagiging doktor, it was also my debut as a lecturer in the medicine course at Lee University.As I entered the lecture hall, the once noisy and bustling atmosphere instantly quieted down. All eyes turned toward me, their gazes following every step I took toward the front of the room. Nilapag ko sa desk ang dala kong maliit na laptop. Then came the whispers, hushed but clear enough for me to catch snippets of their conversation.“Oh my gosh. He’s so handsome.”“Wait... is Dr. Lee our professor?”“Sh*t. Young doctor and professor. Mukhang magiging study first ako from now on.”I couldn’t help but shake my head ever so slightly. This was exactly what I wanted to avoid—being the center of attention for all the wrong reasons. Pero sa bagay, medyo sanay na ‘ko. Noon pa lang na kasalukuyan akong nag-aaral mab

    THE PASTCHAPTER TWO: IMPRESSEDLOVE ANDRE LEE“Kumusta ang pagtuturo mo?” tanong ni Dad sa ‘kin habang kumakain kami ng dinner. Kaharap ko sila ni Mom at katabi ko naman si Summer.Simula no’ng nag-asawa ang dalawang kakambal ko madalang na lang namin silang makasabay sa hapag-kainan. Only during the family dinners Mom made sure to organize at least once a week.“It’s going well, Dad,” I replied with a small nod.“Aren’t you getting bored, Kuya?” Summer chimed in, her tone curious.I paused for a moment, her question making me reflect. My mind wandered back sa isang linggo kong pagtuturo sa College of Medicine. Initially, I thought I’d find it dull—just another routine in my already packed life. Pero simula nang ma-encounter ko ang estudyante kong si Aria, things had taken a different turn.Bored? No. In fact, her presence in my class had become something I looked forward to. Her sharp tongue, her unapologetic demeanor, the way she seemed unimpressed by me—it was refreshing, almost c

    THE PASTCHAPTER THREE: CONFESSIONLOVE ANDREI LEESa loob ng isang buwang pagtuturo ko sa Lee University, mas nakilala ko pa si Aria. She’s brilliant. Walang quiz at activity ang hindi niya na-pe-perfect. That’s part of what intrigues me about her. She’s such a simple woman, unassuming in her demeanor, and yet kakaiba ang talas ng isip niya. Hindi ‘yon mahahalata sa gayak niya dahil sobrang simple niya lang.From what I’ve overheard, she’s a full scholar sponsored by the mayor of her hometown. That’s how she’s able to study here at Lee University, which is, without question, one of the most prestigious universities in the country.At kasalukuyan siyang nanunuluyan sa apartment na malapit sa university dahil sa malayong probinsya pa pala siya galing. That fact added another layer of admiration—I could only imagine how much effort and determination it must take to balance everything and thrive the way she does.And yet, despite everything I’ve learned about her, she still remains a puz

    THE PASTCHAPTER FOUR: APARTMENTLOVE ANDREI LEESabi ko kanina gusto ko nang magpahinga, pero hinatid ko pa rin si Aria sa apartment niya. Alam kong hindi ko dapat ‘to ginagawa. Alam kong hindi puwede dahil bago pa man ang lahat, nakaguhit na ang kapalaran ko sa ibang babae.But no matter how much I reminded myself of that, I just couldn’t ignore her. I didn’t know why.There was something about her, something intangible, that kept pulling me toward her like a magnet. Even when I tried to resist, it was as if the universe itself was nudging me in her direction.“Dito na lang, Dr. Lee.” Itinigil ko ang sasakyan matapos niyang tumuro sa tabi, sa tapat ng lumang building. It was an old structure, situated along the highway. Pero base sa mga damit na nakasampay sa maliit na balcony bawat palapag, mukhang maraming nanunuluyan sa building.As she unbuckled her seatbelt, I glanced at her briefly, a strange heaviness settling in my chest. I shouldn’t have cared where she lived, but somehow,

    THE PASTCHAPTER FIVE: SHE SAID YESLOVE ANDREI LEEIsang buwan na simula nang ligawan ko si Aria. I know I shouldn’t have, but I chose to follow what my heart wanted. And that was to be with her.At first, she was shocked—and she rejected me right away. She brought up my family’s tradition of arranged marriages, something she was well aware of. Matapos kasi ang pangalawang kasal noon ni Faith at Poppy ay lumabas ang isang article, na lahat kaming magkakapatid ay arranged marriage ang uuwian. And she said she didn’t want to ruin a union that had already been planned long before.Ipinaliwanag niya rin sa ‘kin ang sitwasyon ng buhay niya. Ang sabi niya malabo raw kami dahil langit ako at lupa siya. Inopen niya rin sa ‘kin na ulila na siya at ‘yong pinanggalingan niyang angkan ay walang sinasabi sa buhay. Kahit may ilan pa siyang kamag-anak, walang tumutulong sa kaniya o nagmamalasakit kaya pinilit niyang maging iskolar ng mayor sa bayan nila para lang makapag-aral. Baka magsisi lang daw

    THE PASTCHAPTER SIX: UNSUCCESSFULLOVE ANDREI LEEFast forward (Love Andrei and Aria two months together)Ramdam ko ang tensyon sa loob ng operating room, sumasabay pa ang beeping ng monitor at ang kasalukuyang paghahanda ng team ko para sa isasagawa naming maselan na operasyon.My eyes were locked on the patient lying on the operating table—a 45-year-old man who’d been rushed in with a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm. At bago pa man ang lahat, alam na namin na 30% lang ang chance of survival ng pasyente. Ipinagpauna na rin namin ‘yon sa mga kaanak nitong naghihintay sa kaniya sa labas.Nakakalungkot, but as a surgeon, I couldn’t let that number weigh me down. All I could do was focus on what needed to be done.“Magsisimula na tayo. Focus,” sabi ko sa team habang ginagawa ang unang hiwa. Time was our greatest enemy. Kailangan kong ma-clamp ang aorta sa itaas ng pumutok na bahagi, kontrolin ang pagdurugo, at palitan ang nasirang parte ng synthetic graft.For a while, it seemed like

    CHAPTER FOURTEENISHAY ARCANWAY(Four months ago)“Oh my goodness, anak!” Nagulat si Mommy nang salubungin niya ako sa main door. Her eyes widened as she stared at my face, particularly at my hair, which now only reached my neck, compared to how it used to fall halfway down my back. “Bakit ka nagpagupit? Alam ba ng manager mo ‘yan?” She even circled behind me to inspect how it looked from the back.“Yes, Mom. Actually, ayoko sana. But it was my manager who said I needed to cut it for my new project,” I explained.“Nag-mature ka tingnan. Pero kaunti lang naman.”“It’s fine. Honestly, long hair can be a hassle. It takes forever to fix. Laging hirap ang stylist ko sa pag-aayos ng buhok ko lalo na at makapal pa. Ngayon, sa tingin ko hindi na siya mahihirapan. Anyway, where’s Dad?” tanong ko nang mapansing wala ang presensya ni Dad sa bahay. Tahimik.Bahagya siyang napabuntonghininga. “He’s in his study.”Kumunot ang noo ko. “Kaninang umalis ako rito sa bahay naroon na siya. Ngayong nakaba

    THE PRESENTCHAPTER THIRTEENLOVE ANDREI LEE“Final na ang desisyon ko, darling,” ani Mommyla habang magkakaharap kami sa pangpamilyang mesa.It was Saturday, our usual family dinner, and this time, we were at a well-known restaurant. Everyone was there—my twin brothers and their wives, Summer, Tita Baby, Mom, Dad, Mommyla and Daddylo.“Pinagbigyan ka namin noong una,” she continued, “dahil akala namin magiging masaya ka sa babaeng ‘yon. Akala namin tama ang desisyon mo na balewalain ang engagement mo kay Ishay. Pero ano’ng nangyari? Iniwan ka. Ipinagpalit ka sa career niya sa ibang bansa. That says only one thing, Love Andrei—that the two of you were never meant to be. At naniniwala ako na nangyari ang bagay na ‘yon para matuloy ang kasal mo kay Ishay—sa babaeng ini-match talaga sa ‘yo ni Don Adolfo.”Summer nodded in agreement, adding fuel to the fire. “I think so too, Mommyla. We’re on the same page.”Focus sa ‘kin ang usapan kahit na abala kaming lahat sa pagkain. Everyone seemed t

    THE PASTCHAPTER TWELVELOVE ANDREI LEEHindi lang kahihiyan ang baon ko paglabas namin ni Aria sa restaurant. Baon ko rin ang sakit at sama ng loob. Nakakahiya dahil may ilang nakapanood sa amin kanina nang tanggihan ako ni Aria, at nakakasakit sa loob dahil kahit ano’ng gawin ko, hindi ko nabago ang isip niya sa pag-alis.The car ride to her apartment was suffocatingly silent. I didn’t say a word to her from the moment we left the restaurant to the second my car stopped in front of her building. The frustration, disappointment, and anger bubbling inside me were too overwhelming.Nanatili kami sa loob ng sasakyan ko kahit nasa tapat na kami ng apartment niya. Hindi ko siya kailangan balingan sa tabi ko para malamang umiiyak siya. The occasional sound of her sniffles gave her away, even though she tried so hard to hold it in.“Sorry, Love,” she murmured, her voice barely audible, yet it still managed to pierce right through me.Humigpit ang hawak ko sa manibela habang deretso ang ting

Alam kong maaga pa dahil alas sais ang usapan namin, pero hindi na ‘ko makapaghintay kaya inagahan ko ang punta sa kaniya.Hindi niya ‘ko kailangan pagbuksan ng gate dahil saktong pagdating ko may estudyanteng lumabas sa gate ng apartment at hindi niya ‘yon naisara. Hinintay ko lang makalayo ang estudyante bago ako bumaba sa sasakyan at deretsong pumasok na sa loob.I wanted to surprise Aria, so I went up the stairs on my own, leaving the bouquet I brought for her in the car for later. When I reached her door, I knocked. A few seconds passed before she opened it, and the look on her face told me I’d caught her completely off guard.“Hi, love,” I greeted her with a smile.“L-Love… bakit… bakit ang aga mo?” she stammered. Napansin ko ang mahigpit niyang hawak sa doorknob at hindi man lang binubuksan nang maayos ang pinto. It was as if she didn’t want me to come in.I

    THE PASTCHAPTER TENLOVE ANDREI LEE“Villaflor, Aria.”“Absent, Dr. Lee,” sagot ng isang estudyante sa ‘kin na nakaupo sa katabing upuan ng girlfriend ko.My brows furrowed as I looked up, glancing at the student and then at Aria’s empty seat.Late ako ng seventeen minutes sa klase dahil dumaan pa ‘ko sa ospital. Kaya kanina pagdating ko, itong attendance muna ka’gad ang inatupag ko. Ni hindi ko nagawang sulyapan ang upuan ni Aria bago ako maupo sa desk ko. Ngayon ko lang nagawang mag-angat ng tingin at oo, wala nga siya.Why didn’t she attend my class? She hadn’t texted or called to inform me. That wasn’t like her. Aria never missed class without a good reason, especially mine.Does she have a problem?The thought unsettled me, distracting me from the task at hand. I couldn’t shake off the nagging worry as I moved on with the attendance, my gaze flicking back to her empty chair more times than I’d like to admit.Bigla akong nag-alala dahil nitong nakaraang linggo matapos ang pagtan

Pareho kaming walang saplot, our bodies covered only by a shared blanket.I had come straight here after my shift at the hospital. Nagkita naman kami kanina sa university noong klase ko sa kanila, pero hindi sapat ang oras na 'yon lalo at hindi ko siya malapitan at mahawakan.I brought groceries and other essentials she might need—daily supplies, personal hygiene products, and even a variety of fresh fruits. At first, sinermonan na naman niya ako, pero kalaunan naging okay rin kami no’ng sinabi kong gusto kong gawin ‘yon para sa kaniya.Hours later, after sharing the McDonald’s I’d brought for dinner, we found ourselves here again, tangled up in her sheets. Hindi na rin mabilang kung ilang beses nang may nangyari sa ‘min simula noong naumpisahan namin ‘yon gawin. It had become a regular part of my visits, and every time I initiated, she never said no.
