When I Met You (GXG)

CHAPTER 48

"L- ly I'm very sorry. I thou- I thought I can still save her. And she pleads me not to tell you everything." he explained.

"And you think that was a brilliant idea? You didn't even think about me! What about me?! Can- can't you see that my lola is the one of the people I only have aside from my brother?! Now what? I- I don't have anyone! Even her... even her left me... kuya."

Naramdaman ko ang panlalambot ng aking mga tuhod kaya agad akong napaluhod, aalalayan niya na sana ako ngunit agad kong hinawi ang kaniyang kamay.

"Don't you ever try to talk to me again kuya Adam. Please lang, I can't see you right now." hindi matigil ang pagtulo ng aking luha, lalo na nang maramdaman kong nawala na ang kaniyang presensya sa aking harapan.

"Ly!" I was taken aback when I heard my brother's voice. Lumingon agad ako sa kaniya, nakita ko siyang tumakbo papunta sa akin.

"C- come one, kuya is still here." lumuhod siya habang nakaharap sa akin, atsaka ako binigyan ng isang mahigpit na yakap.

Kung kanina ay umiiyak lang ako, ngayon ay hindi ko na napigilang humugolgol. It's been a while ever since I felt my kuya hugged me, ever since the day of our parent's funeral, ngayon ko nalang ulit naramdaman ang yakap ng isang kapatid.

"K- kuya, h- help me... I need her, I want her and I... I miss her." I felt my kuya clueless about who I am talking about but I still say it to him.

How can I tell him that I fell in love with his best friend? And that best friend of him is getting married into someone so she left me.

"Shh, be patient Ly."

be patient for me

be patient for me

be patient for me

shit that word again. Is that why she said that before she left me that night? And I answered I will do it, how stupid of me to not notice that.

"K- kuya..." that's the last thing I remember I said before my eyes went blurred, I lost my breathe and then I passed out.

"HEY, you fine now? Sabi ng Doctor nakulangan ka sa pagkain. You should have called us right away to be with you. We didn't know you're going through this much." nalulungkot na sabi ni Sica habang inihahanda ang pagkain sa aking harapan.

"Ayoko nang abalahin pa kay-"

"Don't you dare say that! It's your lola Ly, she's your world and you just lost her. Don't you ever mourn alone, nakakatakot baka you'll do stupid in yourself." Laure further said.

"Yeah, my two worlds left me... and it pained me- a lot." tears were almost out in my eyes but I force myself to avoid it from falling.

"They left me without even saying goodbye. Bakit naman ganun? Hindi ba nila ako mahal? May pagkukulang ba ako sa kanila? If meron kaya ko namang baguhin ang sarili ko, I can improve and I can be better. But why do they- why do people in my life always leave me." hindi ko na napigilang ilabas ang mga natitira ko pang emosyon sa king dibdib.

"You are enough, you don't need to change. I'm sure proud sayo yung lola mo. At aabangan ka pa niyang maging doctor someday, so don't lose hope. Andito naman kami, di ka namin iiwan." Leia said.
