Epilogue

Jenny's POV

"I'm tired of dreaming." Honey told me and then smiled. My eyebrows raised as I couldn't believe it.

She is the type of person who loves to imagine just so that no one else will hurt her. "True." And she raised her left hand with the ring on her pinky finger.

Before I could asks like, how, why, when, or anything... when a nurse came into her room and said,

"Good afternoon, Mrs. Montenegro. How are you? Just di some BP and temperature. "

My world slowly collapsed with the words the nurse said, then left.

Mrs. Montenegro

I thought there was something for us, Percy, that was interrupted because to me, we had a chance to grow.

But, why not?

It looks fuzzy. Fuzzy as plastic.

"Ahm, honey. I'm going out. Just buy something to eat."

"Sure." I turned around and went outside.

I couldn't hold back my tears, actually. I just leaned against the wall next to the door. Unfortunately, my heart was bleeding too much.

They really are for each other.

And not us.

I've known them for a long time. Too much, I couldn't see myself next to Percy getting old.

I wasted the chance that I had with him. When his heart still has me. When he was hoping, and was not surrendering.

"Ah, ma'am? Are you all right?" I ran away in shame and didn't even notice the nurse who checked Honey.

Shems! It's annoying! My face was epic!

What happened and finally, we're together now?

I have to meet someone at the mall because of Sheen. Coincidentally as we met at a party last Sunday; she was one of those who were invited and I was part of catering. She hung out in the buffet area and told me of her life. She is getting married next year and she wants me to be there. I mean, the problem is, you know that. As to recover, I had a blind date. I really have no intention, because I'm not that good and most of all, I'm waiting for Percy!

And, what else?

She's good at giving creep, so I said yes.

I've been waiting here in an expensive restaurant Sheena and her friend reserved, but goodness!

Until now, he's not yet here!

I decided to go out and I'm getting bored. Even if Sheena reserved it, they would pay it. It's also a shame to see the waiter coming back.

The noise immediately surrounded me. It's too quiet inside. Soon, there's a sudden commotion in front of a bookstore. Actually, just turn right, that's it.

I would not have been curious but when I saw the face of the woman they're holding, I run fast to her.

"Please, give space!" The old woman shouted who's supported her. There are those who leave and stayed, but some are still curious.

"Miss, what the heck?!"

"I know her." I said to get closer because I was about to chased away by the man who was also helping.

"How can we be sure?"

"We're going to meet today. I've been here a while. It's at that restaurant." I pointed the restaurant I came from.

I lied, but I really knew her.

"What's her name?"

"Honey Prescillas Gonzales."

They called for an ambulance because they noticed a blood dripping on its legs.

"All right, come on, Miss!" I also rode the abulance she was riding. They also gave me her things. Maybe, they looked who really she was.

I'm going crazy.

She has yet to explain, she already concludes...

But!

It's Mrs. Montenegro they said!

--

Percy harshly open the door to the person he's going to. And a angry man's face turned to him.

"PERCIVAL MONTENEGRO!"

"YES, SIR!" He salutes it.

"HOW MANY TIMES DID I TELL YOU TO KEEP AN EYE ON HER?" Did he just go for it a few times? He could not count.

"Kuya, actually, she's the one who ran away–"

"You don't have to explain. Because if something goes wrong with them, I'll cut you off!" He automatically held between his thighs.

"Kuya! No!" He laughed. He looked around the room and the woman was not there.

"She's in the bathroom." His brother notice him.

"I'm really sorry, Kuya. I swear, it won't be repeated!"

"Better be, or else!"

"That's enough, Sil." Yes, saved by the bell. Honey just came out of the bathroom. "Wait, how about you, Percy? Have you seen Jenny?"

"Why would I?"

"My question is if you see, not if you meet! He came with me here. She said to buy something to eat, but she's not yet here."

"I don't know. I never saw her." He shrugged and took the apple on the table.

Jenny's POV

"Jenny, someone is looking for you!" I got up from the knock on my dorm. I'm here again in Manila. The branch moved me because they needed a veteran to be in the field. I was having a hard time, so I was transferred here as manager of their Manila branch.

I opened it, "Who is it?"

"Dunno. Get rid of it. I still have something to cook, it might burn. No one is going to entertain with them, we are the one who has the day off today." I groaned in annoyance when she was no longer in front of me.

It's my day off! I plan to stay awake later until tomorrow!

It's better to go out and deal with them - or whoever they are.

"Hi."

I stopped going down the stairs. What my dorm guests refer to is none other than Honey and a man I don't know.

"Honey."

She stood up and the man supported him. "Sil, OA." She looks good here.

"It's not." This is a serious answer.

"Anyway, Jenny. I couldn't thank you for the last time. I swear, thank you very much. So much."

I slowly approached her. "Honey ... you know ... you shouldn't be thankful–"

"Just quits? I'll admit—"

" Can you two just sit? You can do the talking without worrying me."

"Yes, damn." Honey sat down and was supported by the man. Who is this?

Is he OA?

"I'll call someone. Call me if you want anything, huh?" It reminded her before it came out and it seemed like someone was going to call.

"Sit here, Jen." She patted the opposite chair in the living room. I just obeyed.

"We're not quits, Jenny. You know why? I will admit, I was hurt because you didn't listen to me before. I feel like you didn't really listen to me and understand me. As far as I can imagine, you might be under pressure. So I walked away. You need to be able to think while I'm away.

"You're wrong if you think Percy and I are in a relationship. I told you right? We are twins. And now, we're siblings–"

"Did you get adopted?" I couldn't help but smile. Like ... just for me she let herself to be adopted?!

"Jenny, chill! You're still like that! Hahaha!"

"Eh, what?"

"You saw that guy?" I nod.

"That's my husband." And she gave me the smile she showed at the hospital.

"Really? Mrs. Montenegro is what they called you!" Why does it sound so different?

Hope she can't get it!

"That's why you never come back? That's Percy's brother."

"Brother?"

"Yes. That's crazy Percival. He has a brother but didn't tell anything. It's been a long time since Sil been in London, so, accordingly, they met. "

"Meet?"

"Yes. He introduced his older brother, do you know what's funny? We're like cat and dog–"

"Wait… you mean?"

"Percy is my husband's brother. Silvester Montenegro, and not Percival Montenegro. But, I can't say you're okay with Percy. He is dating my friend in London. It's not like I want to expect from him, if ... if you have any feelings, huh? Before I could answer Sil, he talked to me and ... and he said he was ready to date someone.

"Ahmm, I still vote for the PERNNY love team, but Percy has decided. And as I see it, every time he calls me, my friend is always in his stories. I gave him the blessing he asked as what, we were supposed to be twins, right?"

I didn't know the right word to answer what she e said.

Too heavy! I was the only one waiting, and the cruel, to nothing!

"Jenny. I'm sorry. I know you love him but I don't want to lead Percy, I know he's been hurt too."

"I know ... it's my fault." Why is my heart treacherous?

"Let's wipe it off." And Honey wiped it with her handkerchief. "I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault. I'm just really stupid, Honey." She gently patted my back.

So Percy couldn't even give me a small smile, because he was giving me something different.

From before, I should've listened to Honey.

For the second time, she was right again.

Percy is serious.

"What did you do?" We were surprised at the sudden entry of her husband. I wiped my face. It's a shame to know that I'm crying because of his brother.

"I didn't. Stop me, Silvestre!" Honey's threatening that made me laugh.

I forgot to say that she's hot-temper. Then got married with the same fiber.

"No. Just reminiscing. Wasted chances." I interrupted.

"Was it? I've heard my brother is in love with you before. So, what good characteristics made you turn him down?" Honey's straightforward husband.

"Will you stop, or will you sleep on the cold floor?"

"Never mind. Just think that I didn't say anything."

He came to her and I stared at them most.

I remember Honey's smile when she said she was done dreaming. Compared to the two of us, she had only once been in a relationship, and it was still a long time before she found Silvester.

There is something strange about her behavior that others often hate, and that is intimidating to men. And that's why she never confessed to anyone.

But with the joy in her eyes now, with her husband, all the pain and waiting she had been, it was over.

"Anyway, Jenny. It's been 2 months since I've been pregnant, you're godmother, hmm?"

Honey is a friend even if you do not apologize, just embrace her and she will forgive you. I'm happy she probably doesn't have any what if's anymore.

Unlike me.

It's too late for...

My what if's.
