Chapter 30: uncertainties

"You don't have to take care of me," paalala ko sakanya nang makarating na kami sa harap ng bahay namin.

"Ok, I won't. Pero binilhan kitang gamot. Teka lang." Aniya, kasabay noon ang pag-abot ng kamay niya sa likod.

"Drink this, okay? Take care of yourself, hay nako. Doctor ka pero mismong sarili mo hindi mo maalagaan." Suway niya saakin.

Tinignan ko siya nang masama. "Wow? Thank you, thank you for that," sakristo kong sabi sakanya, kasabay noon ang pagkuha ko ng gamot mula sa kamaya niya.

"Sige na, go na. Get inside na take a bath and take a rest. Don't forget to eat then drink your medicine." Paalala niya saakin. Medyo naninibago ako sakanya.

It feels weird that he actually acts this way. I was expecting him to hold me back, pero that didn't happen.

Natulala ako bigla kaya tinanong niya ako. "Why are you not going down? Do you still wanna stay? May gusto ka pa bang puntahan?" He asked me.

I don't know pero I said something that I didn't expect that will come out of my mouth. I shook my head, "Can I stay here a little longer? I'll just take a power nap?"

"Madali lang akong kausap bebe loves ko, you can of course!" Aniya.

What the actual fuck? Anong nakain nito and puro kajejehan ang lumalabas sa bibig niya?

"The fuck? Never mind, bababa na 'ko." Ani ko at aktong bubuksan na ang pintuan nang hawakan niya ang kamay ko.

"Biro lang, ito naman. Sige na, sleep na. I won't be magulo." He said. Ang conyo, pero sige tanggap ko naman.

Inayos ko ang pwesto ko at inihiga 'yung passenger seat at iniharap ang katawan ko sa pintuan, nakatalikod sakanya.

"Sleep well, my love." I heard him whispered before I dozed off to sleep.

Medyo naalimpungatan ako nang may marinig akong mga mahihinang hikbi. Nag-panic ako because I don't know who's crying this hard.

When I faced the other way, still half asleep. There I saw Axel, crying with soft sobs.

"Bakit ka umiiyak?" Nagaalala kong tanong sakanya. Napatayo na rin ako sa pagkakahiga ko.

"Did I wake you up?" Tanong niya, sabay punas sa mga luha niya. But his tears kept streaming down his cheeks no matter how hard he wipe those.

I nodded, "Bakit? Anong problema?" Tanong ko ulit.

"Nothing, I'm sorry for waking you up." He said with his soft voice.

"You know how I hate seeing people cry, tell me the reason, Axel. Huwag mo na naman ako pahirapan oh?"

"It's nothing serious, my love... it's just that I'm thankful..." tumigil siya saglit para punasan ang mga traydor na luhang pilit na kumakawala sa mga mata niya. "Genuinely thankful. You... you accepted me again into your life and I'm thankful for that. Thank you, Kila. I love you."

I sadly smiled at him, I approached him slowly and held his cheeks and wiped his tears away. "I told you before right? I love you. I know that your reasons are valid." I looked at him in the eyes. He was avoiding my gaze, I tried catching it, but failed.
