He's In Trouble

Kabanata 8

Nang makalabas kami ay agad na lumapit sakin si Kelly at lumapit sa braso ko bago nagtanong "By the way, how did you find out he's Pinoy that quick? I didn't even notice that he is because he doesn't seem to look like one at just one glance." Aniya pa. Talaga ngang hindi mo aakalaing Pinoy ito hangga't hindi mo pa ito tinititigan nang matagal.

"I can tell because of his accent. Remember, if you can fully understand what a French person is talking about, might as well check his nationality because he might have turned out to be something else than what you thought." I answered. I can understand and speak their language but it's still giving me a hard time understanding the way they speak. Kaya ko rin agad nalamang hindi ito isa sa kanila dahil naintindihan ko agad ito sa unang sinabi pa lang

Before we head back to the hotel may tatlong stores pa kaming dinaanan at isa pang boutique kung saan may mga napamili rin kami. The last place we went to is at the 24 Le Restaurant which is I say a very cozy and artistique; Artistic and unique, place. We just ordered a few of their best sellers and I feel like I just have to say this: I've NEVER seen Kelly so happy like this. Ever. It melted my heart everytime she smiles at me because I know I am the one who's making her this happy..

It's past five o'clock when we returned to the hotel and both of us are exhausted yet fulfilled. I know I've already made her happy enough this day, but I can't help but to feel guilty thinking that I'd be living her again tomorrow. All alone here.

Kelly seems to be very tired so she instantly passed out as soon as she laid herself on her bed. I did the same thing right after I changed my clothes. At first I wanted to wake her up to change as well but I changed my mind and let her have the rest she needs.

"Good night, Kells." I whispered right before I closed my eyes

I knew if I wake her up now, she'll just think about me leaving tomorrow and it will for sure sadden her and I would not let that happened. Not now that even in her sleep, there's a little smile on her face.

Hindi pa man nakakasikat ang araw pero gumising na ako. Paggising ko ay natutulog pa rin si Kelly kaya pinaghanda ko na muna siya ng almusal. I know I can just order us some food or pwede ring magpa deliver nalang ako pero for me naman this is nothing lang and a simple thing I could do for her. She's been through a lot and who knows what happened to her when we were separated.. the image of her suffering alone is breaking every delicate part of my heart.

Nang matapos akong magluto ay hindi pa rin siya nagising kaya naglinis na muna ako ng mga kalat dito sa loob ng condo niya. Pinapanood ko lang siyang matulog at sadyang napakalim nito at napapahilik pa nga siya.

She's always like this. Even if she slept early the other day she'd still get drowned to sleep especially when she's too tired. Her body is so weak that she needs to get back the energy that she had lost through sleeping or staying at home.

Naligo nalang muna ako at umasang pagkatapos ko ay magigising na rin siya pero hindi. Kahit nang natapos ako ay malalim pa rin ang pagkakatulog niya. Naghintay pa ako ng isang oras at nang mag aalas onse na ay sinubukan ko na lang siyang gisingin. Ang kailangan lang naman ay makapagpaalam ako sa kanya bago ako umalis. Alas dose ang flight ko at hindi na ako nagpumilit na magpahatid sa private plane dahil magiging abala lang iyon.

11:56 na at 12:30 ang alis ng eroplanong sasakyan ko. Matagal akong napatingin sa kanya bago napabuntong hininga. Siguro kaya hindi pa siya nagigising ay dahil ayaw ng pagkakataon na gisingin lang siya para maalalang ngayon na pala ang alis ko. Siguro mas mabuti nang hayaan ko nalang siya. Ayaw ko ring makita siyang malungkot pag aalis na ako.. pinipiga niyon ang puso ko.
