Falling in Love With My Brother

Chapter 33

He started unloading stuffs from his backpack. Natulala ako nang makita ang mga lunch box na may lamang iba't-bang klase ng pagkain. There are also some sweets and some sliced fruits too.

Hindi ko mapigilang mapahanga sa kanya. I didn't expect him to exert all the effort for this date.

"Wow", utas ko habang unti-unti niyang binubuksan ang mga transparent na cover.

I picked up one taquito from the box to have a taste. It tastes really good.

"Did you made all these?"

Nang tumango siya ay ngumiti ako nang malamlam. "Thank you, for making this date possible and memorable."

"Anything for you." he replied and pulled me close, as if we weren't close enough.

Unti-unti kong tinanggal ang suot niyang facemask. I feel suffocated looking at him wearing the damn thing. "I think it's safe. You don't need this for now."

We ate the food he brought while watching movie at the same time using his laptop. It's a movie called 'Five Feet Apart'. Hindi ko alam kung bakit ito ang pinili kong panoorin namin. I'm not even a fan of sad endings. Judging from the way how the movie started, I can already guess that it won't end well.

Ilang beses akong lumuha sa mga sad scenes at nang malapit ng matapos ay tuluyan na nga akong umiyak. Damn, what a way to ruin the mood. Hindi pa nakakatulong na tinatawanan ako nitong katabi ko.

"Cry baby", he teased.

Tiningnan ko siya ng masama pero agad ding naglaho nang patakan niya ako ng isang malambing na halik sa tungki ng ilong.

"Although you look adorable and cute while crying over petty things, I don't want you stressed with anything, so stop crying now." he whispered, trying to soothe my feeling.

"Kung alam ko lang na iiyak ka, Avengers nalang sana pinanood natin." natatawang dagdag niya.

I sighed while leaning on his shoulder. "They parted in the end. What do you think happened to the guy?"

"He won't last long. He'll meet his demise in the end, though it wasn't shown in the movie."

"I feel sorry for him. Although we're not in the same situation compared to them, I hope we won't end up parting ways too."

Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko at pinagsalikop ang mga ito. "We won't."

We spent the next hours in comfortable silence. Hindi ko alam na nakatulog na pala ako sa balikat niya. Nang ginising niya ako ay halos papalubog na ang araw.

Oh my gosh! Si kuya Waylon! Sinabi niya kanina na tawagan ko siya dahil susunduin niya ako.

"Sorry for waking you up. Your phone keeps on ringing. Waylon has been calling you several times already. I think he's worried."

Bigla akong nataranta sa sinabi niya. Agad kong hinanap ang phone ko na katabi ko lang.

"Shit", bigkas ko nang makita ang ilang missed calls galing sa kapatid. May ilang text messages din na galing sa kanya.

Napatakip ako sa bibig habang binabasa ang sunod-sunod niyang mga mensahe.

Kuya Waylon:
Where are you?

Kuya Waylon:
Why are you not picking up?

Kuya Waylon:
I searched for you everywhere, hindi kita mahanap. Call me!

Kuya Waylon:
Are you kidnapped!? I hope not.

I can already tell that Waylon is worried sick about me. The way he sends me those messages says it all.
