2year later while Erica and Angel were having a meal at a cafe own by Erica,when suddenly Erica saw a familiar face with a familiar smile— Risha having a meal with Mary. She excused her self to Nicole then she sat beside Risha her arms wrapped around Risha's neck while she was messing her hair. Mary looks at them laughing, when Risha looked at the girl who was messing with her she froze with a huge smile in her face.
"What the hell you asshole?". She takes of the hands that was wrapped in her neck. "Erica?, is that you ass?. Long time no see,what are you doing here?".
She hugged Erica tapping her back while Erica was carrying her while spinning like two kids, tears were dropping while they laughed and enjoyed their moment after being apart for 8years and Mary was just looking at them hands at her face.
"I miss you idiot".
"I miss you too asshole".
"I didn't know you were her Erica".
"Of course I will be here. I own this place".
"Really?".
"Don't you believe me".
"No!. Just kidding".
While they were talking Nicole came and told Erica that she will go home first.
"Hi Risha it's been a long time, nice to see you again, Erica I'll be home first. Bye".
After Nicole left them, Risha started to glance at Erica raising an eyebrow.
"So you and Nicole were together huh?".
"Were married but I don't love her. It was just because of my Grandma's will".
"Where is your grandma now?".
"She was in her business trip in Canada". Erica stand up. "Let's chat again later. It's nice to see the two of you here today". She hugged the both of them before she left.
After Erica left,Mary looked at Risha holding her hands. "Babe,Why didn't you mention about Ange?".
"I will tell it tomorrow".

The day when the sun early rises with a gentle breeze of the weather—Risha woke up early staring at Mary's lovely face. When Mary woke up Risha lean her a kiss.
"Good my sweetheart".
"Why wake up early Risha?".
"I just want to stare at your face while you were sleeping". Risha warmth Mary with her arms hugging her girlfriend.
"Babe when will you meet Erica".
"This afternoon. I will call her now to meet me". Risha called Erica to meet her at the cafe.
Risha: "Erica what are you doing".
Erica: "writing. Why?".
Risha: "where is Nicol?".
Erica: "still trapped in her dreams".
Risha: "are you free this afternoon?".
Erica: "after finishing my work".
Risha: "meet me at your café I need to talk to you".

In the afternoon Risha was there in the café waiting for Erica. She was looking at her phone while drinking her coffee when suddenly Erica walk towards her. When she sat down beside her Erica called the waiter to order some coffee and bread.
"So what do you want to talk for?". She talks to Risha while looking at the menu.
"Do you still think about Angel". Risha looked at her at talked to her seriously.
"I was so focused on my life now. I don't have time to think of her". Erica smiles and answered fast. She know that if she tell the truth, Risha will tell it to Angel. She doesn't want her to have an hope that they will be together again.
"Erica I know that you still love her. You don't have to deny it". Risha holds her hands.
"You think it wrong. Ever since I left, I never think about her". Erica took her coffee and was about to leave but Risha stop her
"Erica, Angel love you too".
"I'm done with Angel. She can do whatever she wants".
"Are you really sure that you're done with her?".
"Of course I am".
"Okay if you really think that you don't want her back, make sure that you won't regret it ". Risha walk away form her.
Erica stock in her seat crossed arm, still confused.
[In Her Mind]
"What does she mean by me regretting it?. I do love Angel. So much. But I don't want her to wait for me".

Later that night when the sala of their room was filled with darkness—Erica barely noticed herself looking at the photos of her and Angel when they were still together when tears were dropping in her face a shadow from the corner appeared opened the light it was—Nicole looking at her. When Nicole walk towards her Erica whipped her tears rapidly.
"What are you doing here Nicole?." She hides her phone under her pillow while looking at Nicole staring at her.
"It's Angel right?". Nicole leaned on the wall beside her crossed arm.
"Why do you have to know it?". Erica replied rudely.
"Don't worry Erica I won't stop you anymore". Nicole came closer and sat beside her and for the first time Nicole didn't stop her for thinking about Angel.
"What do you mean?". Erica raising an eyebrow.
"Erica you're free to follow your heart now. I won't stop you". Nicole holds her hand smiling at her.
For the first time in years that she hates Nicole it was the first time that she felt comfortable with her again. That gentle nice smile that Nicole had made felt real. This version of Nicole was the one that she once known.
"Nicole can you make it more clear".
"I'm letting you go now. You've been suffering for years, and I don't want you to feel those pain that you've been hiding for a long time". Nicole gently brushed Erica's hair.
"Nicole are really letting me go?". Erica hold back her hands with joy in her face.
"Yess Erica. And I already discussed it with your grandma".
"And what did she say?".
"She allows it. I tell her that our company and your families company will remain partners".
**One week ago**
When Nicole had accidentally woke up in the middle of the night she saw Erica crying looking at the photos of Angel. Nicole felt guilty for what she had done to Erica.
The next morning she called Erica's grandma.
[On The Phone]
[Nicole]: "Hello grandma,how are you?".
[Grandma]:"I'm fine dear".
[Nicole]:"Grandma can I ask you a favour?".
[Grandma]:"What is it?".
[Nicole]:"Grandma, I feel guilty for what I did to Erica. She didn't deserve it. Grandma I was so selfish.
*/Crying
[Grandma]:"Don't you want to be with her anymore?".
[Nicole]:"Grandma I will file a divorce paper".
[Grandma]:"Are you sure about this Nicole?".
[Nicole]:"Yess grandma. But don't worry our company's will remain partners".
[End Call]
**Back At The Present**
"Your free now Erica. I know how much you love her and I know that she still loves you." Tears were dropping in her face. Her heart was in pain and her mind was full of thoughts. (It won't be like this if she doesn't dumb Erica back, then push Erica to love her again when she knows that Erica had someone else).
"Please don't cry Nicole". Erica whipped her tears.
"Why would I?. I was so selfish and I regret it".
Erica move closer to Nicole. "Nicole can I hugg you".
"Yeah sure". Nicole smiled at her before Erica hugged her tight. And that was the moment that she had been waiting in years, that Erica will hugged her again without any thoughts, without any anger in her heart, just happiness.
"Nicole I'm sure that soon you will find the person that will love you for who you are and what you are".
"Thank you Erica". Nicole stand up and she took Erica's hand. "Let's go back Erica. I will bring you back to Angel".
"Wait I need to buy tickets".
"No need I already buy it yesterday. No need to packs your things too I already packed it". Nicole smirk.
"Oh Nicole. You're insane".
"I know".

"Erica wait up!!". Nicole stopped catching up her breath.
"Nicole no time for that. We need to go back quickly". Erica laugh at her.
"Chill Erica we still have 30 minutes for our flight. Don't be so excited".
They rushed to the airport going back to Philippines for Erica to follow her heart. Now she didn't care about others, this time it was just her self. Following her heart and finding her true happiness and that was to be with Angel.
