The longed silenced invading between us. The only thing I heard is the waves touching the sand, the wind touching our skin and this heartbeat drumming.

He was breathing heavily, blaming himself why my hand and knees are hurt. I am totally fine after he said those words! He said it so casually that it's just nothing! while I am affected so bad like I'll faint anytime.

I saw Fercy and Karl from afar, coming on our way. Medyo kinabahan ako dahil baka makita nila ang posisyon ni Ethan. Sasabihin ko sana sa kanya na parating na sila Fercy pero tumuwid na sya sa pagkakatayo.


"Naku! Hindi nag-iingat, Zena. Natamaan ka tuloy!" sabi ni Fercy sabay bigay sa malinis na tela kay Ethan.


Karl got the mineral water and gave it to Ethan. He wet it and gently tapped it to my wounds. I was looking on him while his doing it. He is very serious like I am a priority patient. Siguro ganito sya kapag may mga ginagamot syang pasyente?


"Bilis mong natumba ah!" si Fercy naman na hindi pa tapos kakasalita.

"I lose my balance. Nagulat din kasi ako ng papunta sa akin ang bola."

"Mabuti nalang at hindi mukha mo ang natamaan."


I pouted. I'm sure if my face got hit by the ball, I will look like a walking tomato. I shook my head.

"Ouch!" I painfully grimaced as Ethan put an alcohol on my wound. Hindi ko man lang napansin na iyon na pala ang nilagay nya.


"I'm sorry." agad din naman nyang tinigil iyon.

I nod, still frowning because of the pain. Ang hapdi!

"Yan! Iiyak na! Mahapdi ba ha?" tumatawang sabi ni Fercy sa akin.

"Ikaw kaya lagyan ng alcohol ang sugat." I threaten her but she just grinned at me.


"Galit ka na? Lambing parin ng boses ah."


My brows furrowed. This is why no one can take my anger seriously dahil daw ang lambing ng boses ko! Even my students just appreciated and complementing even though I am mad. I sighed.


"You spiked the ball with too much force, Doc." Karl said while tapping Ethan's shoulder.


I saw how Ethan's jaw clenched and heavily sighed.


"Galit ka Doc nu?" si Fercy naman ngayon.


"Halata nga at sa bola nya nabuhos ang galit." si Karl na tumatawa.


I pursed my lips remembering the word he just said to me. My face suddenly heated when his words echoed my mind. He's damn jealous! and I don't know what to react! Hindi ko man lang alam kung bakit at ano ang pinagseselosan nya.

Kasabay ng pag-ihip ng hangin. We came back to the cottage where everyone is. Ethan assissted me, thinking that I'll fall in no time. Hindi naman masakit ang sugat ko, tanging nangangalay lang ang aking balikat dahil doon tumama ang bola.

Every step we made, causes a soothing sound of the sand. Nang malapit na kami sa cottage ay nakita naming nagtipon sila na parang may pinag-uusapan. When they saw us coming, Roland immediately come near me with worried face.


"I'm sorry. Hindi ko sinasadya ang nangyari." He said with worried tone.

"It's no ones fault. Hindi naman sadya ang nangyari kanina."

"I'm sorry."

"Walang may kasalanan." I tapped his shoulder to assured him that it's fine.
