Moments Of Serenity

Chapter 27

Sean Chardeux

"Sean..." Sambit ni Natasha habang nakahiga kaming dalawa. Nilingon ko siya sa tabi ko. "Hmm?"

She just stared at me for approximately 5 seconds. "I'm sorry." She said innocently. I just smiled at her.

"Look at you." I said. She seems confused as her eyebrows met. "What? Why?" She drunkly said.

Tumawa lang ako. "8 years passed, and you're still gorgeous." She smiled at me and almost teared up.

The only light na nagsusuporta sa loob ay ang streetlights sa village malapit sa bintana ko. But i can still see her clearly. And yes, she's so beautiful.

"Pero seryoso, i'm really really sorry, My Sean." She said while her tears streams down on her face. Hinarap ko siya at hinawakan sa pisngi.

"I'm really really sorry for everything. Hindi mo lang alam kung gaano ko pinagsisihan na iniwan kita no'n. Simula noong iniwan kita, puro pagsisisi at araw-araw na pag-iyak ang nararanasan ko."

"Iniwan kita noong panahon na kailangan na kailangan mo'ko and that was the biggest mistake i've ever done. At hindi ako tumigil na umasa na balang araw, babalikan mo'ko dito. Always kong naaalala 'yon."

I just smiled at her. "Apology accepted, my Natasha. Ever since nasa GenSan pa ako, I already forgave you. I don't even need your explanations, pinapatawad na kita." She just cried.

"And i love you so much. Sabi ko nga 'di ba? Ikaw ang priority ko kaya ako bumalik dito." I smiled and holding my tears.

She just cried and hugged me. "I love you too, My Sean. Please don't ever leave me again."

Hinaplos ko lang ang likuran niya. "Hushh, i won't. Naandito na ako, love. At kailan man hindi na kita ulit iiwan dito."

She just sobbed on my chest. I then kissed her on the forehead.

Napangiti na lang ako habang nakatingin sa labas ng bintana. Finally, after 8 years.

"Natasha." I said. "Hmm?"

Bumitaw ako sa pagkakayakap sa kaniya. "May boyfriend ka na ba?" i innocently asked at nakita kong ngumiti naman siya.

"Why do you asked? Ang cute." She just laughed. "Just answer it."

"Okay. No, i don't have one." I smiled. "And to be exact, ikaw lang ang naging boyfriend ko sa buong buhay ko. May mga fling-flings lang but nothing's serious." She said.

Tumango lang ako. "Why?" She asked. "Ibig ba sabihin no'n, pwede na kitang liligawan ulit?" I smiled while staring at her eyes.

She smiled at me with a crystal eyes. "Oh iiyak kana naman. Hindi ka naman inaaway ah!" We both laughed.

"Kasi i know na....Sa'yo pa rin ako uuwi. At sa'yong-sayo lang ako kahit ilang beses ko 'yon i-deny sa kanila." I smiled when she said that.

So all this time....I was right. Ako talaga. Ako naman talaga dapat.

"Aba dapat lang ah!" She laughed.

"Matulog na muna tayo please. Masakit pa 'yung ulo ko." She said. I hugged her. "Okay, goodnight, My Natasha."

"Goodnight, My Sean."
