ALAS ONSE na nang gabi ngunit busy parin sa pagre-review si Austria, malapit na kasi ang Finals nila and it was her hell week tuwing patapos na ang semestre, madami kasing gawain idagdag pa ang exams. Tahimik lang na nag aaral eto nang biglang tumunog ang cellphone nang dalaga kaya naman nawala sya sa focus. She took a deep sigh before picking up the call, ni hindi manlang nagatubiling tingnan ang pangalan ng tumatawag. "Hello" bungad nang dalaga at inilayo konti ang telepono upang masilip kung sino ang tumawag. "Kayo po ba si Ms. Astria?" saad nang nasa kabilang linya na ikinabigla ni Astria at napadoble tingin sa Caller Id. Tama naman ang pagkakatingin nya, Si Cian ang tumawag pero bakit ibang ang boses nang nasa tawag? Bakit iba ang boses? nawala ba nya ang phone nya? Again!? Napabuntong hininga nalang si Astria at pinagpatuloy ang usapan nila nang tao sa kabilang linya. Matapos nang medyo may katagalang paguusap, naliwanagan naman na ang dalaga kung bakit iba a

GULONG GULO si Astria dahil sa nalaman, paano!? palagi naman silang naguusap nang binata pero ni minsan ay wala syang nabanggit na girlfriend rito? how? She suddenly felt like her heart was shattered. "He has a girlfriend?" she unconsciously uttered at narinig naman eto nang pulis "Oo, teka ano nga ulit pangalan non" saad neto and trying hard na alalahanin ang pangalan, maya maya pa ay nagsalita ulit eto "Ahh! ano, Roxie— Roxie Beridez" Saad neto "Grabe talaga yung ginawa nya, buti nalang at napakiusapan yung may ari nang bar. Sabihan mo yang kaibigan mo na wag masyadong basagulero at baka sa susunod e di na sya makalabas" dagdag pa neto saka umiling iling. Naiwan namang gulong gulo si Astria, she can't think straight. Pano? Paano sya nagka-girlfriend nang bigla bigla? he didn't even bother to tell her kahit na araw araw silang magkausap!? Maya maya ay natunton na nila ang kinaroroonan ni Cian, Yung pulis naman ay sumenyas at ibinato ang susi sa isang pulis na nakabantay sa

HE REALLY have a girlfriend now. Paano? Gaano na sila katagal? why did he hid it from her? and why—Mariing napapikit si Astria nang makalabas nang lobby nang hotel, kasabay nang malamig na panahon ang pagbagsak nang damdamin nya. Ang galing nya naman magtago. Hindi manlang nya namalayang may girlfriend pala eto.She suddenly remembered last month nung bumisita sila sa bahay nila Cian. Lolo Carlos always joked about their engagement tuwing nagpupunta sya don pero Cian always laugh it off and her? syempre kinikilig sa gilid. But ang mas nakakasakit pa ay, Cian always replied to it na "Lo naman, you're so impatient, kalma lang. Little Star is still a student right?we should wait for her to graduate" saad neto kaya naman mas lalong naniwala sya na sya talaga ang papakasalan nang binata, pero ano na? he had a girlfriend.Napatawa nalang ang dalaga habang nangangatog na nag lalakad, She laugh her ass off. Feel nya tuloy ay pinaglalaruan lang sya nang binata.The laugh suddenly become tea

CAIRAN JUST sighed nang makitang hindi makasagot si Astria, he took of his coat and put it to her shoulder. Pansin nya kasi ang panginginig nang dalaga. "Hindi ka paba nakakapagbook nang kwarto? Pano ka nyan anong oras na?" may pagkasoft na saad ni Cairan matapos mailagay ang coat nya sa balikan ni Astria. Astria was stunned by his action kaya hindi agad sya nakasagot sa binata. "W-well, I should look for other hotel. Fully booked na kasi rito e, Thankyou pala for the coat" may pagka-awkward na sagot ni Astria. She never expected that he is willing to give her his coat. Hindi naman agad sumagot si Cairan. Mag papaalam na sana si Astria para maghanap ulit mag ibang hotel nang biglang magsalita si Cairan "Ahh, I live upstairs. Kung gusto mo doon ka nalang muna magpalipas nang gabi, I have a guest room" Gulat man sa narinig pero hindi eto pinahalata ni Astria, she should be thankful dahil baka mas lalong wala syang matulugan pag hindi nya matanggap ang pagmamabuting loob neto. "U

KINUHA NYA ang cellphone nya at tiningnan eto, nag-text pala si Cian. "Little star, nakahanap ka naba nang hotel room?" basa nya sa text nang kaibigan. wow naalala nya pa pala sya? funny thing. Hinayaan nya nalang eto at binitawan ang telepono nya. She's so sleepy to bothered to reply in his text tsaka after what happen earlier she lost all her energy to talk to him. ' You're so bad Cian, you let me stay in that cold night. Buti pa si Cairan, he let me stay in this cozy room, you're so bad Cian ' tanging saad nya sa isip bago nagpadala sa antok. That night, Astria dreamed something she didn't want to dream. Lumaki si Astria na masunurin sa elders, modest din sya sa lahat nang bagay at magalang. At lagi syang kasa-kasama ni Cian sa lahat, Even Cian use her para pagtakpan sya sa lahat nang kalokohan ni Cian nung bata pa. Nung makapasok si Cairan sa mga Funtaveriá, not only they weren't welcomed him, they even gave him a cold shoulder. And one of them is Aunt Odette, she'

MATAPOS NYANG maligpit ang higaan ay nagdesisyon na syang lumabas nang kwarto, kailangan nya nang bumalik sa dormitoryo nila anong oras nadin kasi. Nagulat sya nang makalabas nang pinto. Gising na pala si Cairan, nakatayo ang binata sa may tabi nang dining table at busy maglapag na plato. Napaangat naman nang tingin ang binata nang marinig ang pagsara nang pinto nang guest room. "Ahh, Good morning" may hiyang saad ni Astria, hindi parin talaga sya sanay na kausapin ang binata. Hindi nya din alam ang itatawag dito, nakakahiya naman i kuya sya baka hindi nya magustuhan. He just stare at her blankly with no expression pero later on Cairan decided to speak "After mong maghilamos, come here and join me" tanging saad neto habang inilalapag ang mga nakatupperware na pagkain. Wow, andami. Kahit man may pagkagulat si Astria sa akto ni Cairan e hinayaan nya nalang eto at dumiretso sa banyo upang maghilamos. Naalala nya bigla yung panaginip sakanya, nabagabag tuloy sya dahil don. S

"UHM, I'M in the hotel right now, ilang blocks lang from your hotel" saad nya sa kabilang linya hindi naman sya nagsinungaling at nasa hotel naman talaga sya, she just— hindi nya lang minention na sa hotel room ni Cairan sya ngayon. "That's good to hear pero bakit hindi ka nagreply kagabi!? you know how scared I am? what if something happen on you?" sagot nang nasa kabilang linya na para bang nabunutan na nang tinik sa dibdib kung makabuga nang hininga "I'm also worried na baka wala kang makuhang room hindi ka naman makakabalik sa dorm nyo kaya kanina pumunta ako don to see if nakabalik kana pero wala ka pa" dagdag pa neto. Tahimik at kalmadong nakikinig lang si Astria, maybe kung hindi nya nalamang may girlfriend eto eh kikiligin na sana sya pero now? that nangyari yung kagabi was become her eye opener. Suddenly parang namulat ang mata nya na his just being kind to her because they are friends. Pero, If she really didn't get a room and get frozen by the cold night eh sa umaga

"TEKA" PAG AGAW pansin ni Astria kay Cairan na papasok na sana sa study room. Ayaw nya na sanang abalahin pa ang binata pero hindi talaga kakayanin nang konsensya nya kung hindi nya narerepay ang mga ginawa nang binata. He just coldly stare at her as usual. Napalunok naman si Astria dahil feel nya ay na-offend nya ang binata base sa mga tingin neto, hindi naman masama ang tingin nya pero nakaka-intimidate kasi. "Uhm, ano..." tanging nasambit nya, wala syang maisip jusko! brain gumana ka! "Ah! ano, your birthday! kailan birthday mo? I'll give you a gift too" Mabilis na saad ni Astria nang makaisip nang idadahilan bakit tinawag nya ang binata. "Nah, no need. Tapos na birthday ko tsaka..." He paused for a while and saka tumingin kay Astria with a slight sad emotion "I don't celebrate my birthday" he calmly said na nagpahinto kay Astria. Hindi alam ni Astria ang isasagot, she wants to pity him but she knows that it might be disrespectful to Cairan. Well, looking back sa mga din

"Isa pa, i heard that he's doing well in U.S so isn't it strange that he will return here kung saan puro pahirap lang ang naranasan nya? Isa pa, with his ability pwede naman syang gumawa nang sarili nyang kumpanya, but he didn't, he joined the Funtaveria Corp that runs by his father who never cared for him. Try to think of it, put yourself in his shoes, hindi ba parang ang strange naman non? will you go back to something that made you suffer without thinking of any kind of revenge?" dagdag pa ng ina ni Astria.Napatahimik nalang si Astria, mariin syang napayukom ng kamao, mahigpit na mahigpit hanggang sa bumaon na ang mga kuko nya sa kamay nya.She tried to open her mouth but no sounds came out.Sobrang gulo ng utak nya, hindi na nya alam ang iisipin pa. Her mother's word is valid and had a point... Hindi na nya alam."He can be a cunning person" sabi ni Astella na nagbigay-lamig sa buong katawan ni Astria. "But still, we can deny that he's a poor child but grew up into a outstandin
Take my Hand and Choose me CCXX. Live a life that you really want.
Napakagat nalang ng labi si Astria, she felt cold all over her body."Kaya hayaan mo na, whether we get divorced or not. Ayoko na dyan sa daddy mo, I'm so done with him." Madidiing saad ni Astella at pinapanatili ang pagkakalma kahit sa loob loob nya ay sobrang galit sya kay Roy "My life... It's now completely mess kahit ano pang gawin ko eh wala na akong magagawa pa. I never had a good life with him, kahit kailan. Kahit nga nung nagdedate palanh kami, I just shrugged it all because i was blinded kahit alam kong sobrang misogynistic nya tsk, sa una lang sya magaling" iritable pang asik ni AstellaTahimik lang namang nakikinig si Astria, naawa sya at nalulungkot habang nakikinig sa mga kwento ng ina."Kaya ikaw, Star. I just hope that you will live a good life, hindi tulad ng buhay ko. Just let me and your dad rot in hell, you shouldn't live in this hell. Live a life that you really want." seryosong saad ni Astella sa anak at binalingan eto ng tingin. Her eyes is crying, sunod sunod an
Take my Hand and Choose me CCXIX. Is it because of her?
Astria tries to shake his hand off but it failed kaya naman masama syang tumitig ulit kay Cian "Let go of me, Cian" malamig ang boses ng dalaga matapos sabihin ang mga kataga na eto. Cian felt a chills through her words. Dahan-dahang lumuwag ang pagkakahawak nya sa wrist ng dalaga hanggang sa tuluyan na etong nakawala. How did things between them became like this? the rip in their friendship isn't shallow anymore... Just a few months lang ang nakalipas pero grabe na ang pagbabago sa kung anong meron sila. Back then, they we're each other's comfort, they had endless things to talk about every day. Astria will always smile at her, her eyes is bright and soft. But not anymore. "I'm just concerned ok? can't you just appreciate my concerns?" may pagkairitableng saad ni Cian, he got triggered dahil sa naging reaction ni Astria "Kung hindi dahil sakin, who would told you that tita Astella was injured!?" dagdag pa nya. Natahimik naman si Astria nang ilang minuto. Mariing napapikit
Take my Hand and Choose me CCXVIII. She noticed and even pin point his mistakes.
She suddenly felt guilty for giving Astria an family that she couldn't rely on. Wala syang kaalam-alam nang kahit ano tungkol sa anak nya dahil hindi na eto malapit sakanya.... That's why she always felt a little bit of guiltyness towards her only daughter. She doesn't even know kung nasaktan ba si Astria o nalungkot ba sya nung malaman nyang nagka-girlfriend na pala ang pinakamalapit sakanyang lalaki. Wala manlang sinabi sakanya si Astria. Theirs always a gap or barrier to their relationship of them— between this mother and daughter. Napakamot ulo na lamang si Cian, hindi nya alam ang sasabihin dahil ngayon nya lang din napansin. "Uhm... Kasi tita, Astria and I... we do have some conflicts right now" nahihiyang pag-amin ni Cian. Hindi naman na nabigla si Astella rito, inaasahan na nya dahil sa mga naobserbahan nya nung mga nakaraan. Napapikit na lamang si Astella. "Well, it's not surprising at all. You said infront of so many people that you didn't want my daughter
Take my Hand and Choose me CCXVII. He never noticed that.
Hindi na nakapagpigil pa si Astella, she broke down and rushed towards Roy para paghahampasin eto, she didn't even care kung gaganti si Roy sakanya. Ang bawat hampas ni Astella ay talagang tumatama kay Roy, magaan lang ang kamay neto ngunit ang mga kuko ni Astella ay sumabit sa balat ni Roy dahilan upang magkasugat at magdugo."You! how dare you uttered those words! hindi lang ikaw ang nawalan Roy, ako rin. Anak ko rin yon! Wala kang konsensya! Hindi ikaw ang pinaka nasaktan rito, ako yon Roy, ako! I carried that baby for Eight months! Pero ano bang alam mo!? eh bobo ka naman. You kept looking down on Us women pero tingnan mo yang sarili mo ngayon Roy, samin ka umaasa— kaming ng anak mong babae, umaasa na isasalba namin ang kumpanya mo! then whose the useless here? You're relying on woman for everything now. Sinong mas walang kwenta satin?" puno ng galit ang mga kataga ni Astella at patuloy na hinahampas at kinakalmot si Roy.Nagulat naman si Roy sa inaasta ni Astella, she looks like

"Hindi naman, sabi nang doctor ay baka daw binubog sya because of her bruises and pasa sa mga katawan nya kanina nang icheck sya ng mga doctor, her face is swollen. Kaya naman may mga nainfect at namaga na mga sugat that cause her fever right now" Saad ni Cia at mariing napapikit, hindi sya makapaniwala na kaya ng tito Roy nyang magawa ang ganong bagay.Hindi naman makapaniwala si Astria.Don't tell me.... binugbog ni Roy ang mommy nya!? Hindi sya nakapaniwala, naaawa sya sa kanyang mommy...Wala na syang pake."Send me the location kung saan sya nakaadmit ngayon" tanging sambit na lamang ni Astria.Cian took this as an opportunity for her to unblocked him."Unblocked me first, isheshare location ko sayo" seryosong saad pa ni Cian.Napakunot noo na lamang si Astria, she knew that Cian is taking this happening as an opportunity to be unblocked, pero wala syang magagawa. She needs to go kung nasaan ang monmy nya."Okay" saad ni Astria at ibinaba ang tawag.Si Astella naman ay nasa isa

He really achieved a lot kaya proud na proud si Astria, ilang taon lang ang tanda sakanya ni Cairan pero napromote na eto bilang isang director."Got slam? what does it mean?" seryosong tanong ni Cairan at nakakunot pa ang noo.So cute, he's so clueless. Pigil ngiti na lamang si Astria dahil sa cuteness ng binata. Bahala sya mag-isip."You're a techy, Use your 4g Internet" pigil tawang saad ni Astria."I use 5g" sagot naman neto at napaseryoso, hindi ba tuloy nakapagpigil pa si Cairan at napatawa na lamang dahil sa binata.Gulong gulo naman si Cairan at hindi alam ang nangyayari sa kasintahan.Matapos pa ang ilang minuto ay huminto rin si Astria sa kakatawa "Sige na, baka malate ka pa sa pasok mo" pagpapaalala ni Astria at kinuha ang coat nya na nakasabit sa stand."Ah, oo nga pala" Cairan completely forgot na aalis pala sya dahil sa kasintahan.Kaya naman sinuot na ng binata ang coat nya at pumasok sa study upang kumuha ng ilang papeles na inuwi nya pati ang laptop ay kinuha nya rin

Astria woke up in her man's arm, napatitig nalang sya sa maamo netong mukha. After their talk na halos mag-iisang linggo narin ang nakalipas, their life began to be peace. It seems that they really communicate so well, ngayon ay halos malaya na sila, they even communicate when things get hard such as everytime na tinatawagan ng Psychiatric si Cairan because of his mom. Every time he go, sinasabi na nya sa dalaga... but still hindi pa sya neto sinasama and Astria understand why. He didn't want to shock her.And she respect that at hinayaang maging ready ang binata, she didn't rushed him.Anyway, simula din ng araw na iyon ay halos magkatabi na silang matulog dalawa gabi-gabi. Maybe their fight brings them closure to each other, kagabi kasi ay halos nagkwentuhan lang sila nang mga bagay bagay hanggang sa tuluyan na silang nakatulog."Done staring yet?" nagulat si Astria dahil lumingat lang sya para sana tingnan ang oras nang biglang magsalita ang binata at nagmulat ng mata.What!? he

He lift her up at dinala na kama.Kumalma naman sya ng ibinaba sya ng binata sa kama.Niyakap naman sya ng binata, hinalika ang kanyang noo, tungko ng ilong, at ang kanyang mga pisnge nang ilang beses ang ulit.Astria just stretched out her hands and touched the man's chest, dahil nga sa init kanina ay pinagpawisan silang pareho. Cairan's skin is kinda sticky from sweat but she didn't feel disgusted at all.It was the result of their burning love.She even leaned deeper unto his arms. Hanggang sa napahinto sya at tahimik na dumistansya papalayo sa katawan ng binata.He didn't seems to calm down yet.She's lost in thoughts ng magsalita si Cairan "You didn't belive me?" he uttered."No..." nag-aalangang saad naman ni Astria. She even bit her lips and for a moment, hindi na napigilan pa ang sarili at napatanong "Hindi ba uncomfortable pag ganyan?" pointing out about Cairans bonér."A little bit, but It's ok" sagot ni Cairan at ipinulupot sa dalaga ang kamay nya upang yakapin eto "Stop be
