~chapter V~
I looked at my clock on top of the table beside my bed. It's already midnight. Pero hindi pa din ako makatulog. Hindi maalis sa isip ko na nasa kabilang unit lang si Sir Clive. Ano ba kasing ginagawa niya dito? He's not even the one renting the unit beside me. Ang alam ko matandang mag-asawa ang nakatira don. Bakit hindi ko man lang sila napansin na lumipat? Ang daming tanong ang nabubuo ko kahit wala naman sasagot sa mga tanong ko.
Well Deirdre mga magulang niya lang naman ang may-ari ng buong building kaya hindi malabo na tumira siya dito.
A deep sighed just came out from me. I'm now planning to sleep. As I close my eyes it just took seconds when I heard my door bell ringing. Napadilat naman agad ako at napaupo sa kama. Kesa magtaka mas kinabahan pa ako.
Sino naman pupunta dito ng ganitong oras?
Kahit na kinakain ako ng takot pinilit kong bumangon dahil hindi pa din tumitigil ang nagdo-door bell. I walk slowly towards my door and look at the doorhole to see who's outside.
I looked at the hole. Then wondered why is it dark? Wala akong makita. Lalo tuloy akong kinabahan. I can't even see the lights from the hallway.
My hand is now holding the doorknob but still hesitant to twist it.
Paano kung magnanakaw pala? Deirdre the building is on high full security.
"Sino 'yan?" I shouted from the inside. Pero walang sumasagot.
Bibitawan ko na sana ang pinto dahil tumigil na din naman ang nagdo-door bell. As I let go of the door knob the door bell rang once again.
Agad kong binuksan ang pinto nang walang pagdadalawang isip. I froze when I saw the person in front of me.
It's Sir Clive standing in front of my door.
My forehead creased when It got my attention that he's not moving. Nakatayo lang siya habang nakatungo. Maybe that's why I can't see anything from the doorhole maybe his head is covering it.
"Uhm...Clive?" I cleared my throat to get his attention. Then he slowly turn his gaze up to me.
Napansin ko ang pagkapungay ng kanyang mga mata. When he saw me he's wearing a full smile. He also smile widely.
"Hi Blue."
Wait is he drunk? Base on his voice I think he had a drink.
"Anong ginagawa mo dito? Alam mo ba kung anong oras n~." I got cut off when he stumble and fall into me as he tries to step in my unit.
I quickly put his one arm to my shoulder and put my other arm to his waist for support. Alalay buhat ang ginawa ko hanggang maabot ko ang sofa. Ang bigat naman ng lalaking 'to.
Binagsak ko lang siya sa sofa dahil ang bigat niya. Wala akong pakialam kung masaktan siya sa pagkakabagsak ko. He's head is resting at the sofa. Hindi ko naman maiwasan ang titigan siya habang nakapikit ang mga mata. Pagkalipas ng ilang minuto natauhan na din ako. I lean forward and put my right arm to the sofa then I lightly tap his cheecks.
"Hey, Clive?"
"Hmm~..." he just groaned.
"Do you want water?"
He just groaned again then my eyes set to his adam's apple as it moves. Bumilis ang pagtibok ng puso ko at napatayo ng tuwid. I swallow the lump on my throat.
