FINALE

The long wait is over, Skylight thought. She gently caressed her tummy and nervously sighed.

She was pregnant when she first wore a wedding dress. Nasa harap siya ng salamin at kinakabahang naghihintay ng oras. Excitement and overjoy almost kill her that moment before Kinn Torres left her in the air.

Parang naulit lang ang mga pangyayari. She's again in front of the mirror with her white gown, elegant hairdo, beautiful make-up and an embryo inside her womb. It's again her wedding day. The only difference is, her groom. It's not Kinn Torres anymore, but Dylan Eros.

Yes, it's actually Dos, so why would she have to feel worried. Ilang beses na bang napatunayan ng lalaki kung gaano siya nito kamahal at pinapahalagahan? Maraming beses na. Hindi na mabilang. Wala nga siguro ito nung mga panahong kailangang-kailangan niya ng katuwang, but he was there all the time after he have known about her. He was there and he's always willing. Bakit siya kakabahan kung sakaling mag-ring man ang phone niya at makita niyang ito ang caller? Malaki ang tiwala niya rito na hindi siya nito bibiguin.

Then, suddenly, her phone rang. Kumabog ng malakas ng dibdib niya sabay lingon sa kama kung saan iyon nakalapag. Ilang beses siyang napalunok. Ilang beses din niyang natanong sa isip kung lalapitan ba niya iyon at kung sasagutin ba niya kung sakaling si Dos ang caller. She groaned softly.

"He won't let you down, Skylight."

"Trust him."

She kept mumbling to herself while getting closer and closer to her phone. Nagpakawala siya ng maginhawang paghinga nang makita niya ang pangalan ng kanyang Daddy sa screen niyon. Thank God, it isn't Dos.

But, Daddy?  She got surprised when she realized it again. Kumunot ang noo niya. Daddy niya ang tumatawag. Pero bakit? Kailan pa ba nung huli silang mag-usap? A year ago? Or more? Hindi na niya matandaan. Ang alam lang niya, hindi maganda ang naging huling pag-uusap nila.

Having second thoughts, she waited until the ringing finally stopped. Hindi niya alam kung handa na ba siyang makausap itong muli, dahil ni minsan sa loob ng nagdaang isang taon, hindi ito naglakas-loob na magpakumbaba o humingi ng kahit kaunting patawad. Naging tahimik ito lalo na nung matalo ito sa eleksyon. Kaya may duda siya. Bakit saka lang ito nagparamdam sa araw ng kanyang kasal?

"Skylight?" Lumingon siya sa pintuan. Naroon si Renee, at nakapag-ayos na rin ito bilang Maid-of-honor. Wala kasi siyang ibang kaibigan o kilalang kamag-anak kaya ito na lang ang kinuha niya. Kahit papa'no nama'y naging close na din sila simula nung tumira ito sa dati niyang apartment.

"Ready ka na?" Masigla at nakangiti nitong tanong.

She glanced at her phone, hoping that her father will call her again. Yes, she's hoping. Hindi siya katulad ni Cloud na pinanindigan na ang pagtalikod sa kanilang ama. Hindi ganuin katigas ang kanyang loob. It's her father even if she have changed her surname. No matter what happens, she's still Mr. Ong's daughter. Sa oras na humingi ito ng taos-pusong patawad, patatawarin niya ito nang buong-buo. Ngunit hindi na umilaw pa ulit ang kanyang cellphone.
