The Sweet Things

Chapter 3

Nightmare

In the middle of the night I started having nightmares and It felt  that as if something stopping my body from screaming and opening my eyes. I keep moving to wake up.

"Rine awake! Rine!" Kin patted my cheek softly to wake me up but I couldn't open my eyes.

"Rine, open your eyes, you're having a nightmare." He said and patted my cheek and finally I was awake.

I woke up sweaty and with messy hair and I hugged Kin. My heart is still beating fast because of fear.

"It's okay, it's just a nightmare." Calming me down. He left for a while and came with a milk.

"Drink this it will calm you down." He said and gave me the glass of milk. I drank it and calmed myself down.

Kin wiped my sweat and combed my messy hair.

"Are you okay now?" He asked me.

"Yeah. That was scary, it was like my hands were tied and my eyes were blindfolded because I couldn't open them. Thank you for waking me up." I said and he laughed.

"I will always take care of you. Do you remember your nightmare?" he asked.

He is touching my hair from the top of my head down to the back of my body and he knows that it clams me down.

"No." 

I leaned into him and he hugged me tightly. We were silent for a while to make me calm until I fell asleep in his arms.

KINABUKASAN...

I woke up early because I felt something heavy running in my stomach. I opened my eyes and saw that it was Kin's hand on my stomach. I faced her and immediately saw her smooth face, his thick eyebrows, his sharp nose and long eyelashes. There was hair covering his right eye so I moved it to his head. 

'I can't deny that he is handsome, only when he is sleeping.' 

When I noticed that I was too distracted by looking at his face, I woke him up.

"Kin! Wake up. We still have class today." I shook his shoulder to wake him up. He groaned a little bit and opened his eyes. 

"Good morning girl! ang gwapo ko ano?" he said and grinned. 

'gwapo nga, ayy erase, mahangin pala '

"It's still morning Kin, mahangin ka na" I told him and sat on the bed to stretch. I prayed and Kin also accompanied me.

After we prayed, I fixed the bed and Kin left to take a shower and get ready to go to school.

I took a shower and got dressed in my uniform. I also curled the ends of my hair and put on some lip gloss. I went to the mirror and looked at myself.

' How beautiful! I know I was beautiful before but I'm more beautiful now. hahah ' 

After observing myself for a few minutes, I left my room and went to the dining room to eat. I saw Kin's mom and dad there sitting and talking.

"Good morning to you" I greeted and they also greeted me. I sat where I usually sit next to Kin and Ana.

"How did you sleep well hija?" aunt asked.

"I sleep well po, malikot nga lang si Kin." aunt and uncle laughed and they started talking about Kin and Ana's childhood.

While we were talking, the brothers came noisily as if they were fighting.
