Mina's Point of View

He's here

He's here

He's here

He's here

He's here

"Mina?"

I looked at her and just like that all my worries faded. I was about to hug her but my body stopped me as I continued to tremble out of fear.

What if he goes near

What if he touches me

What if he take me away

I glanced at my girlfriend who is just patiently looking at me, waiting for me to speak. Worry is evident in her beautiful eyes, I also noticed the several of times she tried to open her mouth, maybe to ask questions, she sighed but immediately smiled at me.

I felt sorry.

I roamed my eyes around. I am laying on the clinic bed. Si Chaeyoung lang ang kasama ko and narealize ko rin na she changed her clothes. I remembered the festival.

"Hindi ako nakasayaw." malungkot na sabi ko.

Chaeng just looked at me and nodded. "Okay lang yun, pinagpahinga ka nalang nila and sabi nila ate Nayeon they will perform well for you." She said with an assuring smile.

Napangiti ako.

I want to hug her.

I could feel my hands shaking. I don't know what to do, I don't know what to react. I am scared it might happen again. I looked at Chaeng, she's checking something on her phone while she's just sitting across my bed.

I couldn't bare to lose her.

Napatingin ako kay Chaeyoung dahil biglang nag-ring yung phone niya and she frowned upon seeing who the caller is. She looked at me and pointed her phone and excused herself.

I sighed as I got up. Hinanap ko yung bag ko and reached it to get my phone and ganon nalang ang pag-iyak ko sa nakitang message.

|Unknown: I'm home, Minari|

Chaeyoung's POV

Lumabas ako ng clinic at iniwan saglit si Mina para lang sana sagutin ang tawag sa telepono ko.

"Taylor, anak."

Sumimangot ako sa narinig at mas lalo akong hindi natuwa dahil si papa ang tumawag sakin.

"Ano 'yon?" masungit na tanong ko dito, simula nung dumating siya uli, parati nalang niya akong tinatawagan para mangamusta o ano.

"Mas sasabihin ako sayo anak."

"Tungkol saan?" Napalingon ako saglit sa lalaking dumaan sa gilid ko pero hindi ko na ito pinansin dahil naiinis na ako sa tagal ni papa sumagot.

"Tungkol sa trabaho k-"

"Ahhhhh!!!!" napatingin ako agad sa clinic dahil narinig kong sumigaw si Mina.

"Mina!"

Agad-agad kong pinatay yung tawag at tinakbo si Mina at nakita ko ang basag na telepono niya sa sahig. Nanginginig ito habang nakatakip ang mga kamay sa tenga at sumisigaw. Parang kinurot ang puso ko dahil hindi ko maintindihan kung anong nangyayari.
