The Story We Made Together

Chapter 8

Days turns to weeks and months.

Isang buwan na kami ni Saito, still happy and contented. This kind of relationship is already fine with me.

And with Anshein? Were fine, were hanging out and we became friends.

Kaming tatlo lang sapat na samin. And im so happy to have the both of them.

"Bro, oh look at your girlfriend, na nanakit oh!" Pagsusumbong ni Anshein kay Saito.

"I cant do anything bro, baka ako saktan nyan." Natatawang sabi ni Saito at inakbayan ako. Napanganga nalang si Anshein sa narinig nya at binelatan ko nalang sya.

We were always like this, akala ko nga noong una ay hindi magkakasundo ang dalawang to.

"No, eat this, babe. Wag ka ngang pihikan." Napanguso ako naman ako. Ayoko naman kasi talaga ng ubas e, tapos ubas pa ang dala nitong si Anshein ayan tuloy pinipilit akong kumain ni Saito.
"I hate the taste, i dont like it!" Mas lalo pa akong ngumuso. Bigla naman nya akong hinalikan kaya napa atras ako. "Hey!" Sabi ko. "Sige, if you didn't eat this, I'll kiss you!" Pananakot nya. "Then, shower me your kisses!" Sabi ko at inginuso ang labi ko para hintayin ang bawat halik nya.

"Geeezzz, Stop Doing PDA in public places. Nakakarumi kayo!" Nasusuka sukang saway samin ni Anshein, at napatawa ako. "Napaka bitter mo, garden to walang tao!" Sabi ko at niyakap pa si  saito. "At kung wala ako dito? Nagtutukaan na kayo? Ang bababoy nyo." Pagtatantrums nya pa. Napatawa nalang kami ni Saito.

"Una na ako lovebirds, ang dami ko pang gagawin!" Pagpapaalam ni Anshein at tumango nalang kami ni Saito.

Naiwan kaming dalawa at nahiga sa carpet na inilatag namin kanina.

"Paano kapag ikinasal na tayo? Ilang anak ang gusto mo?" I asked him. Nilingon nya ako at hinalikan ang noo ko. "As long as you wanted to be with me i am contented. And for having a kid? I want to have a twin!" Sabi nya at nakatingin sa asul na asul na langit.

"At yung kambal na yon, ay mamahalin ko kagaya ng pagmamahal na i ibibigay ko sayo at sa susunod pang mga taon!" Sambit nya pa. Niyakap ko sya mula sa tagiliran. I badly wanted that wish to happen. But i know we just have 4 years less to be with each other. I wanted to say these words to him but i dont want to ruin the moment. I just wanted to feel it.

Today is Sunday so walang pasok kaya nandito ako sa kwarto ko sobrang bored at gusto nang makita si saito. I wanted to call him, pero nasa palengke pa siguro yon dahil tinutulungan sa pag bebenta ng isda si tita, or should i say Mama.
"Oh gosh, youre being so cheesy Avery!" Sabi ko sa sarili ko at nakatingin sa ceiling ng kwarto ko.

Sometimes i am imagining something like using his last name as mine and also using at my signature. But in the end im giving up because someday, not his surname but Anshein's sure that I'll going to use.

Konti nalang ay makakatulog na ako ng walang habas na kumatok ang isang nilalang sa pintuan ng aking kwarto.

"Hey, avery. Hey, open this door!"

"What the hell, Shein? What do you want?" Inis na sabi ko ng buksan ko ang pinto.

"You need to come with me!" He said at napatulala ako sa mga mata nya.

"Umiyak ka ba?" I asked him. Namumula ang mga mata nya. "Wait did something happen? Gosh what is it?" I asked him more.

"Si, si Saito!" Sabi nya at lalong nanlaki ang mga mata ko. "What happened to him?" I asked him at inalog alog pa ang balikat nya.

"I dont know how to explain, just come with me!" Sabi nya at nagpatianod naman ako sa paghila nya. Im so nervous i can feel mu body shaking. What happened to him? O my god, i dont want to think negative thoughts but its still coming onto my mind.

Were heading to the seashore,
My god! Dont tell me that he drowned or something!

"Hey tell me what happened?" Sigaw ko pagkatigil namin sa tapat ng dapat kung saan kami madalas tumambay ni Saito.

Anshein faced me to the sunset. "What now?" I asked him. But i stopped and nailed my feet on the sand. When the strum of the guitar played. The familiar song played.

_Fallen_

"Whats this?" I asked everyone, dahil karamihan ay nakatingin sa amin at kinukuhanan kami ng video. Nakita ko sa malayo ang may hawak ng bulaklak at sumasabay sa kanta..

I saw there Saito, holding a bunch of rose walking so slow, singing the song. Biglang umingay ang paligid ng magkalapit kami ni Saito..

"I think I'm falling, falling inlove with you! And i dont, i dont know what to do! " pagsabay nya sa kanta.

Inabot nya sakin ng bouquet of flowers na hawak nya. Kinuha ko naman iyon at inamoy. "Para san to?" I asked him. At sobrang lawak ng ngiti. "Nothing, i just want you to feel so special for me." He held my hand ang guide me to the bench where we always sat as we watch the sun rest.

"I dont know what to feel!" I exclaimed. He smiled and hugged me form behind.

"I want to marry you" he softly tell me. I smiled and hugged his hands. "Me too!"
"I cant promise you anything, but being by your side and loving you as the whole me. I love you Babe!"

I rested my head to his chest and appreciate the whole place.

SOMEONE'S POINT OF VIEW

Why do i need to feel this way?
Bakit kailangan kong masaktan, kapag nakikita kitang masaya? I want you to be happy with me. But why is it so much hurt. It hurts me to think that i am not the one you love. I am not the one who makes you happy.

"Gusto kong sakin ka maging masaya. But i am going to be selfish if i pursue you to be with me."

I want to be happy just to see you happy even if it hurts that i am not that lucky person.

"And i will promise, if that man's hurt you, i dont think twice to make him suffer and i will make you mine."

Not now but i will make sure soon.
You will fall for me, no matter what happen.
