Letter To Stranger (BL)

Chapter 29

He looks so peaceful in his sleep, still cute. Who would have thought he just passed out an hour ago. Good thing I catches him on the right time before he falls to the ground.

"Wake up, Wing, and I'll tell you everything you wanna know. Just wake up."

And I kissed his hand.

And it twitched! His hand moved! The next thing I know, he's opening his eyes!

"N-nasaan ako..?"

"'You're in the hospital, Wing. You passed out."

He looked at me and he started crying.

"Totoo ba..? Ako ang dahilan kung bakit namatay si Ate Lei..?"

"Take a rest for now, let's talk later."

"Sagutin mo ang tanong ko, Kent..! Please..!"

I took a deep breath before answering him.

"No, Wing. No. You're not the one who hit her with a car. She just helped you catch the thief who broke your car's window, just like what a police officer would do, even if she's off-duty that day. And shits happened. It's not your fault. Please, don't blame yourself."

"'Yan ba ang totoo..?"

"Do you wanna watch the CCTV footage where you got a heart attack and Ate Lei got hit by a car while chasing the thief?"

"Oo..."

And I let him watch it. I also showed him the viral vlog of Tito Tedd where he talks about what happened to Wing and asking them to not tell it to him. And he cried as he watches it.

"Ito ba ang dahilan kung galit na galit ka sa'kin noong una?"

"Yeah."

"Sinisi mo ako sa pagkamatay ng ate mo..?"

"Yeah, but not anymore."

"Si Ces... Sinisi niya ba ako..?"

"No. That kid even convinced me to give her mother's heart to you."

"Bakit..?"

"'Coz that's what Ate Lei told her. That that's what she wanted to happen if she got into an accident and beyond saving."

"Kung hindi niya ako tinulungan, buhay pa sana siya... At ako na lang sana ang namatay..."

"Please, stop thinking that way, Wing."

And I wiped his tears.

"She helped you willingly. And she's always ready to die as it is part of her job. And it was an accident nobody wanted. Stop blaming yourself, please."

He looked at me straight to my eyes, and I could see sadness in it.

"Let's break up."

"No! I don't wanna! If you wanna have some space to sort things out, I'll give it to you! Bt please, don't break up with me!"

"But I don't think I could still continue this relationship if I'm feeling guilty of what happened to Ate Lei! Ni hindi ko nga alam kung natitingnan ko pa si Ces nang diretso sa mata at hindi umiiyak! Please, maghiwalay na tayo, Kent. Hindi ko na kaya."

At I hugged him tight as I cry. Even if he's trying to push me away, I'm still hugging him.

"Please, Wing. I don't wanna. Ayoko. Please."

And we agreed to have a cool-off...

But even though we agreed to that, he's not responding to my messages. He's not answering my call either. He's also ignoring Casper that made the kid so sad and cried multiple times at me. We also tried to go to their house, but they didn't let us in as Wing requested.
