8 YEARS

"I love you so much."

"I love you too so much ..."

Nagising si Alexis sa kanyang panaginip. May buo-buong butil ng pawis sa kaniyang noo, at basa ang kaniyang mata dahil sa kaniyang pagluha, tinakip nito ang mga kamay sa kaniyang mukha ng ibinagsak muli nito ang katawan sa kaniyang higaan, lumipas ang ilang minuto, at huminga ito ng malalim.

Looking at the clock on her bedside table, she got up from her bed and opening the window-door as she walked up to the balcony. Closed her eyes, felling the cold breeze in her skin, breathed the fresh air.

'It's been along years and i still can't forget those memories.'

-

"I've been running through the jungle,

I've been running with the wolves,

To get to you, to get to you,

I've been down to the darkest alleys of the dark side of the moon,

To get to you, to get to you, ~~"

Naputol ito sa malalim na pag-iisip ng marinig niya ang kaniyang cellphone na tumutunog. Nang makita niya kung sino ang tumatawag ay napakunot ang mga magagandang kilay nito.

"What is it?." aniya pagkasagot ng cellphone nito.

"Woah. Woah. Easy! Ang sungit agad!."

"Naistorbo ko ba pagtulog mo? Hahahaha!." pang-aasar na bungad ng nasa kabilang linya.

It was Lars, Cain Skylar Smith the famous superstar, And also her business-partner.

She was one of "friends" theyve called, when she was studying at the Academy in U.S.

Lars has a jolly, carefree, go-lucky personality. He loved to teased people mostly Alexis because of her aloofness attitude towards people, at first she was liked that and later on she slowly changed her attitude toward him, and he liked how straight-forward she is.

She doesn't sugar-coated her words, when it comes to him and the others.

He earned her trust, even though alam niya yung pakikitungo sa kaniya ni Alexis ay cold na dinaig pa ang winter sa northpole.

Naiintindihan niya naman kung saan ito nang-gagaling, na kahit ganoon pa ang pinapakita nito sa kaniya or sa ibang tao, she knew to care and treasured some or let's say few people, at isa siya sa 'few' na yun.

Alam niya na kahit anong pang aasar niya rito ay ganoon lang ang ginagawa nito sa kaniya, mabuti na nga lang ay hindi pa siya nito nasasapak dahil sa pang aasar at pang bwi-bwisit nito kay Alexis.

"If there's nothing, then bye." nang akmang papatayin na nito ang tawag.

"Wait! Waaaait!" sigaw ng nasa kabilang linya ng cellphone.

"Damn you!." pagcucursed ni Lars sa babaeng nagbaba ng phone.

"You've never changed woman." Sabi agad ni Lars pagkasagot ng cellphone ni Alexis.

Nang hindi niya narining na nagsalita ang nasa kabilang linya, napabuntong hininga ito at itinuloy na lamang nito ang kaniyang sasabihin,

"First news, the expansion in the Philippines are doing great!. The second news is you need to flight, and your destination is-Philippines! Hehe."

"Bat kailangan ko pang pumunta ng Pilipinas if okay naman ang expansion?." tanong nito na may duda kay Lars.

"Well it's not about the expansion. It's Ide's wedding, and sa Pilipinas ito gaganapin sa pagkakaalam ko ay dahil tiga-doon ang babae na mapapangasawa niya, that's why he decided na doon ganapin ang kasal niya. Besides, the rest will be there too! So, it's a must na andun ka din! "

Nagsalita ito muli, na mukhang alam niya ang iniisip ng babae sa kabilang linya,

"Woman. We know na may reason ka kung bakit ayaw mong bumalik ng Philippines, but its Ide's wedding so make an exception this time 'kay?."

"Its been a looooong years, Babalik at babalik ka din naman ng Philippines." aniya nito, na sinadyang hinabaan sa pagbikas ng long.

"Fine. I'll be there in two weeks." hindi na nito hinintay pa na sumagot ang lalaking kausap sa linya, ng binaba niya na agad ang tawag nito. Huminga ito ng malalim, at tumingin sa malayo.

'Yes, it's been 8 long years. it's time for me to comeback.' she smiled mysteriously, but it did not reach in her eyes.
