TAEHYUNG'S POV

"No, seriously" sabi ni Kayden hyung. "I wanna beat the shit out of you before" he said.

Kaming tatlo lang ang nandito sa living room nila after dinner. Si Kara at Tita Serenity ay nasa kusina pa ata.

Tito Dominique laughed and patted Kayden hyungs  back. "You already know his side of the story." sabi ni Tito Dom.

"Though you shouldn't have lied to Kara about that dating ban or whatever your reasons are"

I nodded my head. "I knew that tito... And I still regret lying to her about that." sagot ko.

"I know she'll understand.. But I don't want to be selfish tito... I don't want her to be hurt.. I just.. I thought that was the best decision for the both of us"

"But I guess I didn't think that through" I chuckled.

"Sure you didn't" sabi ni Kayden hyung. "Pareho lang naman pala kayong nasasaktan all those times... You wasted almost a year.. And you missed out on a lot too" Tuloy ni Kayden hyung mumbling on the last part. I didn't catch what he said so I just nodded.

"You don't know what she went through because of your breakup... We almost lost her---"

"Kayden" Tito Dom gave him a knowing look. "I'm just saying, dad" he shrugged.

"But now you explained yourself..and we understand what you did.." sabi ni Tito Dom.

"Thank you tito.." I smiled. Tumingin din ako kay Kayden hyung. "Thank you, hyung."

"It's all on Kara.. We forgave you because of her..because we know how much you mean to her..". Kayden hyung shrugged. "she really loves you, and we can't do anything about that." sabi pa niya.

"If it wasn't for her, I should've beaten you up a long time ago" he chuckled.I nodded. I know how close they are and I know Kayden hyung would do anything for Kara.

"But, I love my sister and I know she'll hate me for life If I ever lay a finger on you.. Do you know how hard it is to hold your anger inside you?" he looks at me and shook his head.

"Sorry hyung" I said sincerely. "Stop it" he looked at me seriously. "Just don't hurt my sister again. Because I won't hold back anymore" sabi niya.

"I won't hyung... I won't hurt her again."

He stood up and patted my back. Nagpaalam na si Kayden hyung kay Tito Dom at umakyat na. May mga kailangan pa daw siyang tapusin.

"You understand Kayden, right?" tanong ni Tito Dom. Tumango naman ako.

"You know how close they are... They were inseparable since they were little.. Kara is her brothers princess, you know that" he chuckled.

Tumango ako. I know that, They were really inseparable. Mapapagkamalan mo ngang kambal sila dahil lagi silang magkasama at magkamukha pa. I remember when I started courting Kara before, laging nakamasid lang si Kayden hyung sa amin.

"And you know how protective he is towards Kara, he doesn't want her to get hurt."

"I understand Kayden hyung tito" I smiled. "Kahit naman po ako kung ako po ang nasa posisyon ni Kayden hyung... I would really get mad" sabi ko.

"I admit... I also got mad at you"Tito Dom chuckled. " I was hurt seeing my daughter cry, watching her bawl her eyes out just makes me wanna punch that guy who made her like that"Tito Dom laughed.

"Sorry tito"

He smiled and patted my back.

"We can't do anything because she's protecting you" he chuckled. "despite everything that happened, she's still thinking about you" sabi ni Tito.

"And that's when I knew it, my daughter really loves you" he smiled at me.

"And I love her too tito... I love her so much" nahihiyang sabi ko.

"Kara is a strong woman you know... She was supposed to study in Paris, but she didn't go" Nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Tito.

"Was... Was it because of our breakup, tito?" tanong ko. Tito Dom took a deep breath.

"A part of it was the reason... Well the other reason was..." he smiled and looked at me. "She'll tell you soon" sabi niya.

Kara gave up her dream to study in Paris and its because of me.

"It's her choice, it's not your fault" sabi ni Tito Dom. "Tito can I ask you something?" tanong ko. Kakapalan ko na ang mukha ko, because this question is bothering me.

"I don't know if it's true, pero..... Meron po bang nanliligaw kay Kara?"

Tito Dom nodded.

"oh...."

Gusto kong tanungin kung sino  kung ano bang ugali niya, kung gaano na siya katagal nanliligaw kay Kara. I want to know everything.

"There might be someone else willing to be with her... Pero wala eh,ikaw ang gusto niya" Tito Dom laughed.

"Her hearts already chained with yours"

My heart was bursting with joy. Nakakabaklang sabihin pero kinikilig ako.

"I've never seen her this happy since you two broke up" sabi pa ni Tito Dom. "and its nice seeing my daughter become like her normal self again"

"And we all know you're the only one who can make her the happiest... Our little princess is all grown up" he sighed.

"And I didn't know that time flies so fast.. She'll soon leave to build her own castle" Tito Dom smiled at me. I looked at him confused.

"Take care of her, hmmm?"

Is he giving me his blessings?

"W-What do you mean tito? Like.... Uhm... Are you giving us your blessings?" tanong ko.

He chuckled and patted my back.

"I'm entrusting you with my little girl, that's what I'm saying" he smiled.

I smiled to myself as I remember the conversation I had with Tito Dom earlier.

I'm relieved now knowing that we're all okay now. And I feel like I'm on cloud 9, I know It all happened all of a sudden. Me asking Kara to be my girlfriend again. And now we're back together.

"I'm home!" tawag ko pag bukas ko ng pintuan sa apartment. "Oh? You're all here?" sabi ko nung maabutan ko silang lahat sa living room, nag-iinuman.

"Oh! Bat ka umuwi?"tanong ni Jimin." Anong gusto mo tumira na ako don? "biro ko.

"Pwede naman" he said wiggling his eyebrows. "Hmmm... You didn't put my gift into good use" sabi niya.

"Aish! Perv!" sabi ko at ibinato sa kanya yung binigay niya saakin kanina. "You keep this for protection" he laughed and shoved it back to me.

"Hyung" sabi ni Jungkook at inabutan ako ng beer. "How did it go?" tanong ni Namjoon hyung nung makaupo ako.

"It went great hyung" ngumiti ako.

"Hyunggg... Taehyungieee hyung..."

Napatingin ako sa katabi ni Jungkook. "Oh? Eunwoo! You're here too? I didn't notice you there" sabi ko. Hindi ko napansin na nandito pala siya.

Tumingin ako sa kanila nagtatanong kung bakit andito siya. Nagkibit balikat lang naman silang tumingin saakin.

"Hyung... Did.. Uh... Did the dinner went well?" he asked. I don't know if it's because he heard earlier or he already know where I went. Maybe the guys told him.

"Oh!" tumango ako.

He laughed and nodded. "That must be great" he laughed.

"You're drunk again" sabi ko. Tumawa uli siya tsaka tinungga ang hawak niyang alak. "It's.. cause my heart hurts" he laughed.

"hyung...." sabi niya. "Can you stop pursuing your ex?" tanong niya. Nagkatinginan kaming lahat dahil sa tanong niya. Iniangat niya ang ulo niya at tumitig saakin.

"Can you, hyung?"

Tumayo ako mula sa kinauupuan ko at tumabi sa kanya. "What?" tumawa ako. "What are you talking about? You're the one who told me to get her back, now you want me to quit?" I laughed and patted his back.

Tumango siya at tumawa ng mahina.

"Can you not pursue her anymore?" he asked his vouce cracked.

"But you told me to get her back..." sabi ko. Maybe he's still hurt about being rejected.

"Can't you just let her go hyung? Just this once?" he asked his tears flowing down his face.

"Eunwoo yah, you're drunk---" i said but was cut off by Namjoon hyung. "Just let him" he whispered.

"Just go with the flow" Sabi naman ni Jimin. "He's pretty drunk" sabi ni Jungkook.

"Eunwoo! Cha Eunwoo, whats with you?" I laughed and patted his back again.

"Hyung.... Just let her go.. Oh?" sabi niya. I took a deep breath and patted his back. "This has nothing to do with her though" sabi ko.

"You told me to confess hyung...." he chuckled. "And you told me to stay... and... and show her that I love her" he cried.

The guys looked at me and I sighed. "I know... But she made her choice, I can't do anything about that." sabi ko.

"So that's why.... That's why don't pursue her anymore hyung.. Just let her go.. Please" he cried again his voice  almost pleading.

"Eunwoo yah! Stop it, you're drunk!" sabi ni Jungkook.

"I'll take care of him hyung" sabi ni Jungkook at sinenyasan niya kaming umalis na. "Ani.... Hyung! Just let her go oh?" sabi ulit niya at tumitig saakin.

I felt really sorry for him but what can I do? Ni hindi nga namin alam kung sino bang pinag uusapan namin.

"Just stop pursuing her hyung... Please"

I sighed and smiled. "I can't do that.... Not when we just got back together" sabi ko. Napatigil siya at tumingin ng seryoso saakin. I don't know if I saw it right but I think hurt just flashed in his eyes.

"No.... I won't let her go... I won't let her go without a fight..." he mumbled. I smiled and nodded. "Just play along" sabi ni Namjoon hyung.

I know it has nothing to do with Kara, and if this makes Eunwoo feel better then so be it.

"Okay... May the best man win then" I said and patted his back. "Hyung I'll go in now" paalam ko sa kanila.

"Jungkook take care of him" sabi ko din kay Jungkook at itinuro si Eunwoo.

Nagpaalam na ulit ako at pumasok na sa kwarto.

"Eunwoo's pretty wasted again last night" sabi ni Yoongi hyung. Nasa kusina kaming lahat at nag-aalmusal.

"heartbroken eh, nakita daw ata yung babae kasama yung ex niya" sabi ni Jungkook. "He's a pain in the ass when he's drunk" tuloy niya.

Hinatid siya ni Jungkook pauwi kagabi since he can't drive because he's too drunk. Obviously still going through a heartache.

"The girl is mean. How can she reject Eunwoo and get back with her ex?" tanong ni Jungkook. "I mean Eunwoo is a package deal already!"

"right!" sumangayon naman sila. "it's not that she's mean or anything, we don't know her side of the story.. Maybe she has her reasons" sabi ko. They all looked at me and I shrugged.

"Well you have a point" Namjoon hyung said.

I smiled and nodded. "actually it was Kara who said that" sabi ko. They all looked at me and smiled.

"Oooooooh" biro nila.

I shrugged still smiling. "Na kwento ko kasi sakanya... And she said maybe the girl has her reasons on why she rejected Eunwoo" sabi ko.

"Or... Baka mahal pa talaga niya yung ex niya. That's why she rejected Eunwoo to get back with her ex" Namjoon hyung said.

Well, kahit ano pang rason o dahilan nung babae desisyon namab niya yon.

"Well hindi natin malalaman kung ano bang totoo, since we don't even know her" sabi ni Jimin.

"Next topic!" sabi ni Jin hyung. "Speaking of getting back together!" tuloy niya. Bumaling uli silang lahat saakin.

"You said you and Kara just got back together? Is that true?" tanong ni Hobi hyung.

"And you didn't tell us what happened last night!"

"Just stop pursuing her hyung... Please" Jungkook acted out Eunwoo's words last night.

"I can't do that.... Not when we just got back together" then he acted my words making us all laughed.

"Wah! Hyung.. You sounded really cool last night" he said laughing. "I thought I was watching a drama" Jin hyung said.

I smiled and nodded. "Well...its true---" I was cut off when they started cheering after hearing what I said.

"We can finally hang out with Kara again!" Sabi ni Jimin.

"Okay okay! Tell us what happened last night" sabi ni Hobi hyung."It went really great" I smiled shyly remembering what happened.

"Eyy.. Not that ... We need details" sabi ni Jin hyung.

I nodded and told them everything that happened. Everything that happened last night still feels like a dream. From the heart to heart talk I had with Kayden hyung and Tito Dom, to me and Kara getting back together. It still felt surreal. I feel like I'm on cloud 9.

"Whoah! That went really great!"

"who would expect that they'll give you their blessings on your first dinner with them again?" sabi ni Jin hyung.

"Tito Dom practically want you and Kara to get married" sabi ni Namjoon hyung. "No.. He didn't say that" sabi ko.

"Man! He gave you his blessings to take care of Kara and like... Build your own castle, and all the talk about babies---"

"maybe they badly wanted a grandchild?" sabi ni Jimin.

"What's important is that, you have their blessings, that means they really want you for her" napangiti ako sa sinabi ni Yoongi hyung.

"Okay, let's have a toast! Raise your glasses!" sabi ni Jin hyung at itinaas ang basong may lamang juice.

"To Taehyung and Kara!"

"To Taehyung and Kara!" they cheered making us laugh.

"Wedding bells are ringing! Wedding bells are ringing!" kanta ni Jungkook. "Dingdingdong!" Sabi naman ni Hobi hyung.

Napangiti ako. That was one of my dreams.

My ultimate goal.

To marry the girl I love the most. To marry the love of my life.

To marry and to start a family with her.

My first everything,
Kara Vixen Agoncillo.
