The Summer I Met You (Under Revision)

X

"Sure ka naba talaga?" Ahia looked at me with his puppy eyes. "Susulat ka ah!"

I chuckled. "Ito naman, Saglit lang ako do'n! Pag-balik ko may abogada kana"

He pat my head before poiting at the schedule of the flights.

"Baka maiwan kapa, lakad na." He smiled.

I waved at him when I got to the entrance of the gate.

This is it. I'll be a lawyer with or without love. All this in the name of my mom.

"Ma'am would you like do drink or eat anything?" A cabin krew asked while I was reading a magazine.

I looked up and my eyes widened.

"Kelly!" I smiled at her. "I'll have an americano, miss Keybin Kruw." I Chuckled.

She gave me a thumbs up before walking away and returning later on with my coffee.

I spent the whole flight either eating or sleeping. I grew an eating disorder which made me gain more weight but it reslly doesn't bother me.

I looked out the window as we landed.

"Stella! Na'ko ang pamangkin kong napaka ganda." Auntie Gladys hugged me tighter that anyone could. Halos maubusan ako ng hangin.

I'm staying at there house hanggang matapos ko yung BAR. I didn't want to take the BAR sa Philippines knowing that he would find out about it.

Mabait naman si auntie Gladys tsaka ang asawa nya, halos ayaw na nila akong mag part time kasi daw mahihirapan akong mag focus sa BAR.

"Malapit na ang exams ha. Galingan mo, naniniwala kami sa'yo." Ahia said from the other line of the video call. "Nga pala nagsend na'ko ng allowance mo."

"Ahia naman! I told you, okay na'ko. I don't need an allowance tsaka may trabaho naman ako." I shrugged. "How's Ahma?"

"Ayon okay naman. Ikaw nga magsabi na magtake ng vitamins! Akala kasi palaging malakas eh." He complained.

I gave him a thumbs up.

Minsan napapaisip ako kung baka sobra ang pagkamiss sa'kin ni Ahia kasi gabi-gabi kaming magkavideo call.

"Ahia." He looked at me from the screen. "Uuwi ako, pagkakuha ko ng results uwi ako." He showed me the cutest smile.

"Galingan mo, ha? Make me proud." Ate Angellique then entered the room.

"Stel! Hello! Kamusta ka dyan? Pasalubong ko pag uwi mo ha!" She waved .

"Bibilhan kita ng Dove na lotion hahahaha." I smiled at both of them.

My brother finally found someone to spend the rest of his life with.

"Namimiss ka na daw ni Nuel hahaha." She rolled her eyes teasingly. "Kayo ah! Palagi pala kayong magkachat ha!"

"Chismosa 'to!" I scoffed. "Sige na, may exam pa'kong pinaghahandaan."

"Okay! Good Luck, always pray ha? We're all rooting for you, Princess!" She cheered.

I ended the call and went outside the balcony.

Pinanood ko ang paggalaw ng mga puno na sumasabay sa hangin, ang pagkislap ng mga tala sa langit, at ang buwan na sumubaybay sa lahat ng naranasan ko.

"Where are you, Santi?" Bulong ko.

It was already our anniversary yet here I am celebrating it alone. Maybe it has already been too long? Baka dapat mag move on narin ako?

That's when I decided na after ng BAR, magmomove on na talaga ako.

The next few days were tough, halos wala na'kong tulog sa dami ng nirereview ko. Auntie Gladys provided for everything I needed during my review.
