When Love and Hate Collide [ Series 2]

D-Day 2

Nakatulog sa bisig niya si Lemon dahil sa kakaiyak. Tinulungan siya ni San para ayusin ang higaan sa loob ng tent.

The head teacher announced earlier na ngayon ay maging komportable muna sila sa area at ayusin ang dapat ayusin para bukas maging handa sila sa mga activities.

"I didn't know Jaz would let you accompany her daughter, huh." Kijani said breaking the silence outside the tent.

The three of them are now having a bonfire and sitting silently.

"Didn't know you have kids, at kambal pa." Jared fired back na kinatahimik ni Kijani na sya nama'y kinatawa ni Santino.

"Well, limang taon ka ding hindi nagpakita sa amin. Last we saw each other eh sa Australia." Kijani said while took a big branch of a tree para sa apoy.

"Yep! Where we have our last step on club. Grabe that night was so hilarious, man." San said while closing his eyes.

"Oh yeah, I wouldn't forget how you guys put a that fucking pill on my drink." Jared smack Santino angrily.

Reminiscing about that night, he didn't know who's that woman he fuck though he keeps thinking she's familiar.

"Hindi na kami magugulat if may lalapit sayo na bata sa susunod tapos tatanungin kung ikaw ba tatay niya." San laugh because of what Kijani said.

Naiinis na binato ni Jared nang maliit na sanga si Kijani sa sinabi nito.

"Tangina niyo bakit ko ba kayo kaibigan."

"Magkikita at magtatagpo talaga tayong pito."

"Because we will connect no matter what."

Napahilamos sa sobrang inis si Jared dahil sa pagkabaliw ng dalawa. He look back to check his girl sleeping inside. Jazi pack everything kaya nakahinga ng maluwag si Jared.

"The mosquito net is helpful." He whispered and started to listen about Santino rant.

Jazi couldn't think properly. It's already 1:10am pero hindi siya makatulog. Ito ang kauna-unahang nalayo sa kanya ang anak. She's been thinking of them simula ng umalis sila

She look at her phone and open her contacts. She look at the number she want to call but she's hesitate to press it.

What if he's already sleeping?

Tapos magulat si Lemon at hanapin ako.

Binalik niya ang telepono sa ibabaw ng mesa at naglakad papunta sa kama niya. Hihiga na sana siya nang biglang tumunog ang cellphone.

Halos madapa siya nang makita kung sino ang tumatawag. She gulp before answering the call.

[ On the phone ]

[ Hello? Jasmine. I'm sorry for late call. But Lemon woke up and she's looking for you. ]

Parang siyang sasagot na hindi. Naririnig lang niya ang mahihinang hikbi ng anak at hininga ni Jared na animo'y nahihirapan sa sitwasyon niya.
