XXL SERIES #1: Strahmn Volkswagen (+18)

S.V CHAPTER 27🟥

DEAR MY beloved ate,

I hate to do this but I need it for the sake of my sanity. I need to leave the apartment right away or else he'll find me. There's so much going on but none of them could give me the courage to tell you. I'm very terrified of what your reaction will be if you find out. I'm sorry, I know it's a selfish and reckless decision to make but I hope you will understand. Maybe soon, I'll have the face to reveal it to you, for now, I just want to keep it to myself and endure it while I'm away.

Don't worry ate, even though we're apart, I will take care of myself, especially now that I have another reason to live my life to the fullest. If I have some time to spare, I will contact you and Treasure. I'm going to miss you both. Goodbye for now... I love you. ♡♡

The letter had her crying for a while now. It's been days since Brialen was gone. The apartment feels empty and lifeless without her twin. She feels empty.

Day by day, if she misses Brialen she'll just read the letter again and lie herself to the bed and cry. That's a daily cycle.

There's some moments that Treasure will cry with her because he also misses his Tita Brialen.

What bothers her is what Brialen means on 'or else he'll find me'. She doesn't understand it.

Treasure cracks a voice to ask, sending her mind back to reality from her little reverie. "Hindi pa po ba uuwi si Tita Brialen, ma?"

She shook her head as 'no'. She stroked her son's hair apologetically when she earned a very deep sigh with a sad smile on his face.

Although Treasure was sometimes savage and naughty to Brialen, nonetheless, they both have a great bond like they were inseparable.

"Eh... Si Uncle Hamham po, mama? Kailan po siya bibisita sa akin? I missed him already," Treasure frowned even more.

"Treasure..." She sat herself comfortablably, she held Treasure's shoulders. "S-Sa ngayon tayo lang muna magsasama, hmm? Hindi na pupunta si Uncle Hamham mo rito."

There's heavy tear from Treasure's eyes, from a single drop 'til it makes flood.

"He left me? Did I do something wrong?" Treasure hardly wiped his never ending tear but it keeps flowing. He shook his head repeatedly.

"Tell him Treasure will be good this time. I'll behave from now on. I'll be a good boy, ma... " Nagkakandautal-utal na nagsasusumamo si Treasure sa harapan niya.

Strahmn really made an unbreakable bond with Treasure. Treasure is now really attached to Strahmn as if Strahmn is Treasure's root of happiness and that is a pinch to her heart.

Naaawa siyang pinapanood itong kunin ang selpon saka inilahad sa kaniya.

"M-Make Uncle Hamham stay, Ma... I need him," naging piyok ang boses ni Treasure. Nagmamakaawa sa kaniya.

This is one of she scared the most, Treasure being so attached to Strahmn. She know from the start that Treasure will long and long for Strahmn's presence.

"W-We can't make him stay, baby. He'll never going to come back." She's trying to repress her cries.

She feel so sorry for her son, for hurting him by telling the truth.

It also hurt her, she couldn't see Strahmn again. She's couldn't feel his touch again. She couldn't see his sweet smiles again, but she doesn't have any choice, Strahmn hurt her again and that's the reason why they are in this kind of drama.

With ragged and short breaths, Treasure started to reached for his chest, clutching it firmly. He's running out of breath.

Uzziah noticed it. "Treasure? What's wrong?" She became panicked and alarmed.
