KEEPING THE LAST BULLET
CHAPTER 29
BREIGH'S POINT OF VIEW
Five months.
It's been five months. Five months of losing her, not hearing her voice, feeling his touch, seeing her smile. Saying I love you, and hearing her said she loves me back.
Limang buwan na walang Avrionne.
Limang buwang madilim ang buhay ko.
Kailan ka ba magigisng? Kailan ko ba muling makikita ang bahaghari? Ang liwanag sa'yong mga ngiti?
"I warned you not to get your hopes high. Apat na buwan na siyang hindi nagigising, o kahit maigalaw ang daliri ay hindi niya magawa. I told you that the bullet hit her heart badly, it has been caused a lot of damages that makes it hard for her to breath."
I went out of the hospital and decided to go to a bar to unwind. Habang patagal ng patagal ay mas lalong bumababa ang pag-sa ko na magigising pa siya.
"Hand me a vodka, please."
I drank the bottle of vodka, bottom's up. Napapikit ako sa matapang na lasa nito ngunit 'di kalauna'y idinukdok ang mukha sa lamesa. I was on the stool bar when I saw something- - someone in my peripheral view.
I stood up and asked for two bottles of liquor before went towards her direction.
"Pushcart girl."
Her eyes widened in shock after seeing me. I knew she was surprise, so am I.
"Ano'ng ginagawa ng isang anghel sa bar?" natatawang tanong ko.
Flashback...
"Sorry!" I immediately apologized to the person I bumped with. I picked her things and put in on her push cart.
"Pasensiya na 'rin, hindi ko sinasadya," paumanhin nito pabalik.
Sa aking pagtunghay ay isang anghel ang bumungad sa akin.
"Uhh..Hello?" she said and waved at my face.
"Oh, sorry!"
"Ganito na lang, I'll pay your groceries, dahil nabangga kita. I'll do that as an apology."
"N-Naku, hindi na kailangan!" tanggi nito, nahihiya.
"It's not a problem."
She really is an angel, inside and out. Girls like her doesn't suit this place. Masyadong magulo at maingay.
"Oh, hahaha. Trying to unwind," she answered and laughed. I gave her the other bottle and smiled.
I noticed her eyes were somewhat reddish.
"Did you cry?" I asked.
She laughed softly but looked at the other direction.
"Come on, you can share it to me."
And with what I said, she started to cover her face using her hands. Her shoulders were shaking, means that she's crying.
I did nothing but to caress her back to at least calm her.
"What happened?" I asked.
"Hindi ko alam. P-Parang ang bilis na lang bigla ng mga pangyayari. I was just living my normal life with him, b-but when she came in to the picture.." She paused and wiped her tears.
