The Brother In Law's Obsession ~Epilogue
-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO POV)- ~2 years later~ “Deanna! Halika na at malelate ka na!” Tawag ko habang nilalagay ang mga kailangan niya sa trunk. “Momma, I can't find my other shoe!” Sigaw nito na nagmumula sa loob. Nagtungo ako muli sa loob at kinuha ang lunchbox niya sa coffee table at tinulungan siyang maghanap, at mabuti na lang ay nakita ko ito. “Oh, ito. Suotin mo na.” Utos ko habang ina-alalay siya. Nang masuot na niya iyon ay kinuha ko na rin ang bag ko at sabay kaming lumabas, locking the door before heading to the car and made her sit at the back seat. “Momma, are we going to school?” Tanong niya habang ina-adjust ko ang seat belt nito. “Yes, darling. You’re going to school and Momma– Momma is going to work.” Sagot ko at saka siya hinalikan sa pisngi. “Isn't daddy ninong going to take me to school?” Tanong niya ulit. “No honey, because daddy ninong has work to do.” Sagot ko at saka nagtungo sa driver's side. Dali-dali ko nang pinaandar iyon at umalis, 30 minutes d

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)--❀-~October 2, 20xx~“Saan ka pupunta?” Napalingon ako sa may gawing living room nang may magsalita.“Aalis na ako.” Sagot ko, pointing at my suitcase as I held its handle.I watched as he placed the newspaper down, standing up from his seat and looked at me with a serious look on his face.“Babalik ka ng US?” Tanong nito muli na nakataas ang isang kilay.Tumango na lamang ako at inayos ang suot kong sweater, kahit na ayokong umalis ay kailangan dahil nagtatrabaho ako ruon.“Okay ka na ba?” Tanong ni ate Sera habang ito'y may ginagawa sa kanyang laptop.“Oo, ayos na ako.” Sagot ko rito pabalik upang wala ng mahabang usapan.Tumango na lamang ito at akmang bubuksan ko na ang pinto nang marinig kong magsalita si Kuya.“Don’t forget to take your antidepressants, tawagan mo kami kapag nababalisa ka ulit.” Wika nito.Lumingon ako rito. “I will, salamat ulit.” Giit ko at saka ito niyakap.“Mahal na mahal ka namin, Emy. Always remember that.” Bulong

-(DEAN ALVAREZ POV)--❀-It was 2:00 in the afternoon, I was in my store doing some work and helping Greg and the other staff. Katatapos ko lang din nilabas si Emy, talagang nag rason na lamang ako na ‘day off’ ko para hindi siya malugmok at magkulong sa kwarto niya.I was also trying to keep myself busy these days dahil palagi kong iniisip si Tas, there wasn't a single day I wouldn't think about her.Oh, my darling Tassy…Kahit na nandito na ako sa US, Tassy never left my mind. Her smile, her sweet angelic voice, her body that I always craved for and those sweet luscious lips that I always get to taste whenever we’re alone.She was my everything, my world, and my light in this dark and cruel world. She was the reason why I felt complete everyday.But now, I can't get to see that beautiful goddess anymore and the fact that she's pregnant with Edward's child made me wonder every time.What if… ako ang ama ng bata?What if she's lying?What if she really is telling the truth?What if Ed

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO POV)-~7:30 PM~Dean: Where are you? Kanina pa kita hinihintay.Dean: Babe? Please answer me.Kanina ko pa pinagmamasdan ang mensahe na iyon, at hindi ko magawang kumilos at maligo para sa date namin.It felt like my feet were stuck to the ground, and I couldn't move them no matter how much I tried. Pakiramdam ko na-paralyse ang ibabang katawan ko.Namataan ko ang mga gamot na antidepressants na nasa vanity table, my mind having numerous thoughts once more.(You are nothing!)(You are useless!!)(You don’t deserve to be here in this world)(You don’t deserve everything here.)Those thoughts came rushing my mind like wildfire, tears streaming down my face as I stood up and grabbed the medicines.Pakiramdam ko may sariling utak ang aking katawan at basta na lang binuksan ang bote na puno ng gamot, at saka isinalin sa aking kamay ang lahat ng laman nun.(That’s it, do it… no one loves you anyway..)(Just do it!! Your husband will meet you in the afterlife…)“Lal

-(DEAN ALVAREZ POV)--❀-“How is she, Doc?” I asked as soon as the doctor came out of her hospital room.“Seems to me, she was trying to kill herself once again. We found an empty bottle of antidepressants in her pocket, and we can’t think of another reason why she would get overdosed.” Wika nito at saka binigay sa akin ang bote ng nasabing gamot.“So, what you mean to say is, she swallowed a bottle full of antidepressants?” Tanong ko na siyang tinanguan nito.“Luckily, you brought her to the hospital immediately. Otherwise, she would have died.” Sagot nito sa akin at saka lumingon sa hospital door ng kanyang kwarto.“Okay, Doc. Thank you.” Ayun na lamang ang sinabi ko at saka pumasok sa kwarto, seeing her once again with an IV drip in her hand.“Oh, babe.” Bulong ko nang makalapit na ako rito, seeing her sleep peacefully.She was getting thin, her body losing weight by the minute, and I don’t know what to do just so she can overcome this obstacle she’s experiencing.Lord… tulungan Ni

-(KAJI YUJIRO ALDANA POV)--᯽-“Kaj, anong balita? Sumagot na ba siya?” Tanong ni Jace sa akin nang ako’y makarating sa main residence.“No, ni-seen lang niya ako.” I answered plainly before sitting at the sofa.Kasalukuyan akong nandito sa bahay dahil kukunin ko ang iba naming gamit ni Axzie, may nakita kasi kaming bahay na pwedeng lipatan at napag-desisyunan namin na duon na lang kami kaysa sa California mag-stay.“Nasaan kaya yun, ilang araw na siyang hindi umuuwi, nagdala pa ng bagahe nung umalis.” Wika ni Jace at saka nagbukas ng dyaryo.“Hindi kaya pinuntahan niya si Emy?” Giit ko rito na siyang nilingunan niya.“Si Emy?” Ulit nito na nakataas ang isang kilay.“Oo, I mean ‘baka’ lang naman diba? Sabi mo may dalang bagahe, so I assumed na pinuntahan niya.” Sagot ko rito ngunit nag iba ang ekspresyon nito.“Emy already fucking thinks Gelal is dead, so why would he go there?” He asked again.Akmang sasagot ako nang marinig namin bumukas ang pinto na naging dahilan upang kami’y lumi

-(JACE RAJIV PHILEMON POV)--ᄒᴥᄒ-As I was packing my stuff in my room, someone opened the door, causing me to look at whoever it was.“What are you doing?” Jescel asked and closed the door immediately.“I’m packing, isn’t it obvious?” I asked ominously before zipping the suitcase."Saan ka naman pupunta?" Tanong nito muli. "Mabibisto na tayo ni Lal, what are we gonna do?” “Ako ang bahala, ang gawin mo na lang ay manahimik ka.” Sagot ko rito at saka lumabas ng kwarto.“Pero anong gagawin ko kung magtanong siya tungkol sa babaeng yun? Ayokong mawala si Gelal sa akin.” Giit nito as she followed me.“Kaya nga ako ang gagawa ng paraan. Manahimik ka dito sa bahay and act like nothing happened.” Sagot ko nang harapin ko ito.She didn't respond and just nodded at me, lowering her head before heading to their bedroom.I sighed, frustration taking over dahil hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko sa puntong ito. I guess I have to do it… for our sake…-(DEAN ALVAREZ POV)--10:30-"Binago mo na nama

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-Why is he not answering?Kanina pa ako naghihintay ng sagot mula rito, at mukhang wala siyang balak na sumagot sa akin.“Hello, Theo?” Tanong ko nang wala akong matanggap na sagot.“I’m so sorry for leaving you hanging, Cory. I was just thinking of something.” Sagot niya.“It’s okay, magpapaalam na rin sana ako kasi maglilinis pa ako ng bahay.” Sagot ko pabalik as I went to the utility closet upang makuha ang vacuum.“Sure, usap na lang tayo pag tapos ka na.” Giit nito.“Okay, bye bye.” Wika ko rito.“Bye bye.” Sagot niya at saka binaba ang tawag.Nang maibaba niya ang tawag, hindi ko maiwasang mag-overthink dahil sa boses nito.He sounded so much like Bubby, but Bubby has been dead for about a year now…Even so, hindi rin ako nagdalawang isip na pindutin ang number ni Dad upang humingi ng tulong rito.“Hey, Dad. It’s me, Emy.” Panimula ko nang masagot niya ang tawag.“My Emy, how are you? Okay ka na ba?” Tanong niya sa akin.“Oo, okay lang ak

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO POV)- ~•~ As I pulled up to the side of the road, nagtataka ako kung bakit may mga elf truck sa harap ng bahay nina Gelal, at ang daming lalaking naglalabas at nagpapasok ng mga gamit. “What the heck?” I whispered to myself and got out of the car. May namataan akong isang lalaking may hawak na clip board, ngunit bago ko ito tawagin ay may tumawag sa pangalan ko. “Yes?” Tanong ko nang namataan ko ang isang babaeng patungo sa akin. “You’re Emerald, yes?” Tanong nito pabalik na may bahagyang ngiti sa labi. “Ako nga, ba’t mo ako kilala?” Pagtataka ko habang hawak ang isang envelope. “Kuya told me everything about you, darling.” Sagot niya habang hindi umaalis ang ngiti sa labi. “Oh, okay. Kuya mo si Gelal?” I asked. “Never mind, nandito ba siya? Kailangan ko lang siyang-” “He’s not here, Emerald. He left.” Sagot nito sa akin. “Saan siya pumunta?” “He left for France, went to see his– I don't know. Wife?” Giit nito na parang hindi sigurado. “Oh– but, w

-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~•~Nang makapasok ako sa bahay ay inexcuse muna ni Mr. Luxembourg ang sarili dahil may aasikasuhin daw ito, at bago kami makasagot ay nagtungo na ito sa taas.“Eve-” Tawag ko ngunit nagtungo ito sa hallway.Sumunod naman ako rito bitbit ang aking mga bagahe, kahit pagod at puyat ako ay kinaya ko iyon.“This will be your room for now.” She stated.“How are you?” Panimula ko nang maituro niya sa akin ang guest bedroom.Kaming dalawa lang ang naroon, kung kaya’t inipon ko ang makakaya upang makausap siya.But even so, she didn't answer and just opened the door for me with the words “Dinner will be ready in 20.”And before I could say anything, she left. With no choice and due to exhaustion, I entered the guest room to settle my things.Patuloy kong minumura ang aking sarili habang inaayos ko ang mga gamit ko sa closet, at alam kong sinira ko ang kanyang tiwala– Big time.-(JEAN EVOLET LUXEMBOURG POV)-~•~As I was making some food for Gelal to eat, numer

-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)-~Tuesday~“Sir, I have postponed every meeting you have including with your meeting with Mr. Ameer.” Panimula nito nang makapasok siya sa opisina.Tumango na lamang ako bilang tugon at saka ipinagpatuloy ang ginagawa, ngunit hindi ko pa rin makalimutan ang sinabi ni Emy sa akin nung nakaraan.(Tatanggapin ko kahit may kahati ako.)“Damn it, Ems.” I mumbled to myself and rubbed my forehead.“Sir, is everything alright?” Sambit ni Silas na naging dahilan upang mag angat ako ng tingin rito.“You're still here.” Sagot ko.“Akala ko po kasi may sasabihin pa kayo.” Sagot niya pabalik.“Wala, you may leave.” Utos ko rito na naging dahilan upang tumango ito at lumabas.Heaving a sigh, sumandal ako sa backrest ng swivel chair ko at tiningnan ang oras, seeing it was 4:40 in the afternoon.Sakto rin na tumunog ang aking cellphone, kaya kinuha ko ito at upang tingnan iyon.Eve: When are you arriving?She texted, yet I wasn't ready to reply. At least not yet.-(EMER

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~2:00~Patuloy akong naghihintay kay Gelal habang nasa harap kami ng bahay nito, at kahit ayokong umalis sa puder ni Callum ay mapipilitan ako.“Momma, why are we here?” Deanna asked as she yawned.“We're just waiting for Daddy Lal, okay? Kaunting tiis na lang.” Sagot ko at saka ito niyakap.“But I want to sleep na, Ma.” She yawned once again.Ngumiti na lamang ako nang bahagya at saka ito binuhat, letting her sleep in my arms as we waited.“Pasensya ka na kung nadamay ka sa gulo namin, nak.” Bulong ko rito at saka hinalikan ang kanyang noo.The cool breeze kept blowing as I waited, and I couldn't help but feel sleepy.A few minutes passed by, but there were still no headlights heading towards this direction, which caused me to sigh and close my eyes for a bit.-♪-“Emy.” Someone murmured my name, and all of which seems to be a blur.“Emy.” It called once again. “Emy, wake up.”As I came to my senses, with my vision getting clear once again, I

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~That night~“Babe, ayos ka lang ba?” Tanong ni Callum habang ako'y nakatingin sa may bintana.Nasa kwarto ako ngayon at pakiramdam ko wala akong ganang kumain, and to be honest, I want to be alone with my thoughts for a while.“Hey, what's wrong?” Tanong ulit nito, at ramdam kong lumubog ang isang parte ng kama.“Nothing.” Sagot ko na lang. “I want to be alone for a while.”“But Deanna is looking for you.” Sambit nito, forcing me to look at him as I felt his thumb and finger on my chin.Even though he said something, I didn't feel the need to answer him, and just looked away once again.“Can you please tell me what's wrong, Emy?” Tanong nito sa huling pagkakataon, ngunit hindi pa rin ako sumagot.Silence enveloped us and there was nothing I could think of an answer for him, all I could do was stare and remember the scene where-“Are you thinking about him?” He asked again.“Who?” I asked and looked at him.“Gelal.” Sagot niya, and there was s

-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~Friday~“Nasaan si Gelal?” Panimula ni Lez nang makarating ito sa hospital.“Parating na yun.” Sagot ko at saka nilagay sa bag ang aking cellphone.“Sana sa kanya nga si Deanna, hindi ako papayag kung ang gagong yun ang ama.” Wika nito at saka tiningnan ang bata sa tabi ko.“I thought you hated each other? Bakit parang nag-iiba na ang ihip ng hangin ngayon?” Biro ko sa kanya.Tumawa na lamang ito bilang tugon at nag-usap muna kami ng ilang minuto habang hinihintay si Gelal, hanggang sa dumating na sina Dad ay wala pa rin ito.“Nasaan na ba ang asawa mo, Emerald?” Tanong ni Dad sa akin habang nakakunot ang noo. “May aasikasuhin pa ako sa opisina.”“Baka po na-stuck lang sa traffic.” Sagot ko. “Tawagan ko na lang po ulit.”Kinuha ko muli sa bag ang aking cellphone at akmang pipindutin ang kanyang numero, nang biglang sumigaw si Deanna at saka umalis.“Deanna!” Tawag ko ngunit nakita ko na sinalubong pala nito si Gelal.Pinanood ko itong buhatin

And there was nothing I could do except finish these before leaving.-(EMERALD CORLYN VERDANIO-FRANCISCO POV)-~Verdanio Residences~Kasalukuyan kaming nasa main residence

Kaya walang alinlangan akong nagreply rito.Ems: Last week mo lang siya kinuha, why so sudden?Theo: Evolet’s bleeding.Just by seeing his reply, I couldn't help but worry for his wife. And worry for his safety…-(GELAL THEODEN FRANCISCO POV)--♪-“Silas, is everything booked?” Tanong ko habang kami ay papunta sa office.“Yes, Sir.” Sagot nito. “Your flight will be on Wednesday night.”“Sige, cancel my meetings from Thursday to Saturday.” Utos ko rito bago ibaba ang tawag.Hindi ko maiwasan ang hindi kabahan para kay Eve, at pilit kong sinisisi ang aking sarili dahil sa sinapit nito.Kailangan ko na rin ipa-DNA test si Deanna, para bago ako umalis ay panatag ako na akin siya.“Daddy, where
