In Love Series 3: Completely

Kabanata 31

Hindi ko nagawang magpahinga at kumalma sa buong biyahe namin patungo sa Laguna. My head is full because of the sudden confession Ishmael had made. It lingered and echoed inside my pretty little head that I can't stop thinking of it.

Really? Nagtatalo ang puso at isipan ko kung maniniwala ba ako. Siyempre, we were apart for years. Before everything happens, we never had a proper closure or a proper talk about our relationship.

I so wanted to run back to him, hug him, kiss him, apologize and say how much I love him but I know I shouldn't. We have things to settle. We have issues to face. I, for myself, have so many issues in life that up until now, I still find hard to face.

Isa pa, how about Criselda? The whole world knows what's between them. Articles after articles about them being in a relationship is no joke. Her, attending the twin's concert, which the world witnessed via live streaming will never lie. Kahit i-search ko iyon sa Youtube, lalabas at lalabas iyon.

Kaya bakit ngayon, ganito ang kaniyang sinabi? Kaya bakit ngayon, parang wala namang nagbago sa feelings niya?

"You're quiet," he spoke. I startled a bit. Saglit ang ginawang paglingon sa kaniya. "What are you thinking?"

I did not answer. Instead, I looked outside the window and just stared. I don't want to talk to him as of the moment. My head is suddenly full of thoughts about him. At kung dadagdagan pa niya, sasabog ako.

"Come on, baby. What is it?" he tried again.

Pumikit ako sa lambing ng kaniyang boses. It's always like that, even before I lost all the memories with him.

He tried to talk to me until we reached our destination. I never answered him nor I never talked to him. Pag hindi tango ay iling naman ang isinasagot ko. He settled for that, though.

"We'll check the area first, Miss," Bruno said over the phone. Kapa-park lang namin sa isang mall. Ito iyong pinakamalapit sa bahay ni Jelay at sa bahay na rin ni Lola that's why Bruno suggested to just buy the gift here. I agreed because we have no time to find a decent place to buy the gift for my beloved Jelay.

After the fifteen-minute checking, Bruno allowed us to go. I put my aviator glasses on same goes with my face mask and was about to jumped out of the car when I remembered that I have Ishmael with me. Natigilan ako at hindi man gusto, lumingon ako sa kaniya.

He's staring at me. Tila kanina pa yata niya ako pinagmamasdan. Ang mga mata ay nagungusap at parang ang dami niyang gustong sabihin. Ako rin, maraming gustong sabihin pero napangungunahan ako ng mga posibleng mangyari sa pagitan namin.

"Won't you get out off the car?" I asked after a little while.

"Are you comfortable having me?" he asked back. Parang piniga ang puso ko sa tanong niyang iyon.

Hindi ako sigurado pero nababanaag ko roon ang pinaghalong sakit at lungkot. Halos pumikit ako dahil nanunuot ang sakit sa aking puso.

Of course, I am not. His effect on me will be my end.

"Uh... Bruno can't accompany me since he's in-charge observing the area..." I bit my lower lip and averted my gaze from him. "And I don't want to go alone."
