61. Weird reaction.

The next thing Lara knew, nasa sahig na ang lalaki at pinapaulanan ni Miguel ng suntok habang pinipigilan naman ang asawa niya ng ibang miyembro ng pamilya. There's another familiar guy who pulled Miguel from the man on the floor at inundayan din ito ng suntok. Lola Cordelia desperately tried to stop the commotion as everyone took the opportunity to lash out at Miguel. Sa isang iglap, lugmok ang asawa niyang pinagtulungan ng sarili nitong pamilya.Lara couldn't stop screaming and crying. Nanginginig na dinaluhan niya si Miguel habang ang naunang galit na naramdaman niya kanina ay napalitan na nang matinding takot. "Are you okay?" Duguan na ang mukha pero nagawa pa rin siyang tanungin ni Miguel. Iniharang naman ni Lola Cordelia ang sarili nito sa kanila para hindi na sila malapitan ng ibang mga lalaki sa pamilya. Gano'n din ang ginawa ni Meredith na umiiyak na rin dahil sa nangyari kay Miguel. The one who hugged her earlier was still shouting Lena's name like his life depended on

62. Afraid.

Lara hadn't been the same since that night. Madalas, tulala siya. Hindi niya alam kung napapansin ni Miguel, pero naging busy rin kasi ito kahit nasa bahay lang nang ilang araw. He couldn't come to work looking like he was beaten to death. Kaya double time ito sa kabi-kabilaang call conference. Si Lara naman ay pilit na inaalala ang mukha ni Stefano and if she was right about him. She started searching for him on the internet. Wala siyang nakita na larawan nito from many years ago. Ang mayro'n lang na pinakaluma ay limang taon ang nakararaan. Pero sigurado siya. He was that man. "Okay ka lang ba, Miss Lara?" puna ni Auntie Rosette sa kanya. Nasa garden siya at malalim ang iniisip nang lapitan siya ng matanda."Auntie, oo naman po," sagot niyang ngumiti pa."Halos dalawang dekada na kitang inaalagaan. Sa tingin mo ba, makapagtatago ka pa sa akin?" Naupo ito sa tabi niya. "Ano ang iniisip mo?" "Wala po," kaila pa rin niya. Tapos ay hindi na niya alam ang idudugtong sa sinabi niya.

63. Like a wife.

"I can't go home tonight," Miguel said.Kausap niya ang asawa via video call. Nasa opisina nga ito base sa background nito. And he looked stressed out. "Is anything wrong?" worried na tanong ni Lara. Migo wasn't his usual composed self. "No… None at all. I just need to catch up with things I missed," kaila naman nito agad at pinalitan na ang paksa ng usapan. "Don't forget to eat dinner, okay?""Ikaw rin. Do you want me or Auntie Rosette to send you dinner?" She was hoping he'd say yes. Para magkaroon siya ng rason para puntahan ito. Pero umiling si Miguel."I'll just have Jaxen order for us. I don't want you to come here or I'll not be able to do anything anymore. I miss you. You don't have any idea how much, sweetheart," Migo answered. She blushed a little. Lately kasi, talagang wala itong time sa kanya. Idagdag pa na nagpapagaling ito nang mga nakaraang araw. She also missed him a great deal. Pero nahihiya siyang sabihin iyon."So, stay home. Uuwi naman ako as soon as I'm done w

64. A promise to be kept.

"I'm sorry," sabi ni Miguel sa kanya. Nasa living room silang dalawa at nakaupo. Si Meredith naman, nagluluto sa kusina. Tinapon ng babae ang niluto niyang beef caldereta dahil hindi raw edible iyon. Lara was hurt. But she tried her best to contain her tears. Pero hindi siya nagsasalita. It was already the next day. Meredith had the nerve to spend the night there and even slept beside Migo. Siya naman na nagmukhang t*nga, sa sofa sa sala natulog. Gulat na gulat pa si Miguel na makita si Meredith doon, pero mas lalo ang gulat nito nang makita siya. Hindi nito malaman ang sasabihin pero hindi naman nito pinaalis si Meredith. Na para kay Lara dapat ay una nitong ginawa. "I was totally drunk last night," he added. "I couldn't even remember anything." "Yeah?" Hindi niya napigilang maging sarkastiko. Idagdag pa sa ikinakasama ng loob niya ang katotohanan na dinala nito roon si Meredith. Ang akala ba niya ay walang ibang nakapupunta roon maliban sa kanya at kay Auntie Rosette?"I mess

65. Send him away.

"Lara, ano ang nangyari sa 'yo?" Payakap siyang sinalubong ni Tasya. Luhaan ang kanyang mukha nang makita siya ng kaibigan. Dahil niyakap na siya nito, hindi na rin niya pinigilan ang pag-iyak. Lara cried like a baby in Tasya's arms. They stayed like that for a good several minutes, Tasya rubbing her back and Lara crying rivers. Nang makalma ay saka siya nagkwento. Mataman namang nakinig ang kaibigan niya nang walang panghuhusga. "I can't believe that's just what I am to him, Tasya… To think that I loved him with all I got," hikbi niya. Hindi niya alam eksakto kung paano niya naitawid ang kwento niya nang hindi binabanggit kung ano ang narinig niya. Na hindi pinapaliwanag ang pinanggagalingan niya. At kung paanong hindi na rin nag-usisa pa si Tasya. Maybe, her friend just dwelled on the fact that she heard something that upset her. "Lara, you should have confronted him," sabi naman ni Tasya. "Sana tinanong mo. Kasi kung narinig mo lang at hindi mo naman pinatapos ang usapan, ma

66. It's always been you.

"Please, not a word," Lara blurted out when she recovered. Pinigilan niya ang akmang paglapit ni Miguel sa kanya. Tasya sold her off. Kaya naman wala siyang choice ngayon kundi harapin ang asawa niya kahit na bakas pa sa kanyang mga mata ang ginawang pag-iyak. "Sweetheart, let me explain." May pagsusumamo sa tinig ni Miguel. "I don't wanna hear it," she stubbornly answered. "Kaya umalis ka na!" But in her heart, that's not what she wanted. Gusto niyang tawirin ang pagitan nila at yakapin ito. Yakapin ito nang mahigpit at sabihing ang tangi niyang gusto ay manatili sa piling nito kahit hindi siya mahalin nito. But she couldn't keep hurting herself, right? "Hindi ako aalis hangga't hindi ka nakikinig sa akin, Lara! You have to let me explain." Miguel took steps forward. "Tasya said you heard me and Meredith discussing about how I feel for you. I admit I might have said—""Stop!" Tinakpan ni Lara ang magkabilang mga tenga niya. It was a desperate attempt to stop him from telling he

67. Happiness.

"Marupok," tukso ni Tasya sa kanya. Kausap na lang niya sa telepono ang kaibigan. Kanina kasi, hindi na siya nakapagpaalam nang maayos dahil nagmamadali na si Miguel na iuwi siya. "Come on! Who was talking about forgiving quickly earlier? Sinunod ko lang ang payo mo," she rolled her eyes kahit wala naman ito sa harapan niya."Kahit 'di ko sinabi 'yon, alam kong isang suyo lang sa 'yo ni Mr. Villareal at bibigay ka na kaagad. My gosh, kung isang tulad niya rin ang hahabol sa akin, hihinto ako sa pagtakbo!" Kinikilig nitong sabi. "Hindi nga ako nakapagsalita nang kausapin niya ako kanina. Napatango na lang ako kahit na ayaw ko sanang papasukin!"Lara giggled. "Sira ka talaga!""Oh ano na? Bumawi kayo sa tampuhan?" Tasya teased, may malisya ang tono.Namula si Lara. Napahawak siya sa roba na tanging suot niya. Sumilip siya sa kwarto kung saan mahimbing ang tulog ni Miguel. Napagod kaya mabilis na nakatulog. Malakas na tumawa si Tasya nang 'di siya makasagot. "You're married and yet y

68. Meant to be together.

When Lara woke up the next morning, Miguel had already gone to work. Pero may iniwan itong bouquet of blue roses at note sa mesa sa kwarto para sa kanya. Tatlong salita lang naman ang nakasulat sa note – I love you.All smiles si Lara at kinikilig pa pero mabilis natapos iyon nang makaramdam siya ng hilo at pagsusuka. A few minutes later, her reflection in the mirror told her she looked horrible."What is wrong with me?" She asked herself as she prepared to get a shower. "Am I sick?" She took her time under the sprinkling warm bath habang iniisip kung bakit ilang araw na siyang masama lagi ang pakiramdam tuwing umaga. Pero nang maalala niya ang blue roses, nawala lahat ng iniisip niya. She hastily finished her bath at excited na binalikan ang mga magagandang bulaklak. She was happy. Her heart was full. She could really feel that Miguel loves her. To express her gratitude for the flowers, she took a selfie and sent it to her husband. "Thanks for the flowers. I absolutely loved t

69. Check up.

Lara couldn't believe what just took place. Habang nakatingin siya sa singsing na nasa daliri niya ay parang cloud nine pa rin ang pakiramdam niya.Miguel loving her back was already a surprise to her. But him wanting to marry her again was another thing. It was beyond what she could have ever imagined. Lara was overwhelmed. At hindi niya rin ini-expect na gagawin nito ang proposal sa harapan ng puntod ng pamilya niya. When he popped the question, iyak talaga ang itinugon niya.It took her sometime bago niya nakalma ang sarili. Miguel had to stand up and pacify her nang hindi pa nasusuot sa kanya ang singsing. But she accepted his proposal with a big warm yes. It was just then that Miguel was able to breathe. Kinabahan daw ito that she would turn him down. "Why on earth would I do that?" tanong niyang may luha pang nakadungaw sa mga mata niya. Nakalabas na sila sa mausoleum."I don't know. You might not accept me. I was scared you'd say no." "How can I say no to you?" Yumakap siy

70. Condition.

Hindi makapaniwala si Lara na kaharap niya si Stefano Villareal. Nasa isang cafe sila sa baba lang ng ospital. Hindi na kasi siya nakatanggi gawa ng hindi niya in-expect na makikita ang lalaki roon."Are you pregnant?" Tanong nito sa kanya. Hindi mawari ni Lara kung paano ilalarawan ang emosyon sa mukha ni Stefano. The look in his eyes was somewhat scaring the heck out of her. There was a danger that she couldn't fathom. Sa ilalim ng mesa, nakakuyom ang mga kamao ni Lara habang pinipilit na hindi kumawala ang magkakahalong takot at galit sa puso niya.Because there she was face to face with the man she believed killed her sister. How could Stefano still act like he didn't do such a horrific thing in the past?"Are you carrying that bastard's child?" Stefano rephrased his question.Lara shook her head. Pero siguro ay hindi talaga siya sanay magsinungaling. Because she denied her pregnancy and yet the man in front of her burst into a dangerous sounding laughter. It made her shiver.
