CHASING THE MOON

CHAPTER 42

Astra

" thank you for everything, miss Alice. I'll visit you once I am done to all this problems that my parents cause." Serenity said while hugging Miss Alice.

I look at them softly as they have their moment. I am sure that they will miss each other. Today is our flight going back to the Philippines, we will settle everything.

I just stayed behind them as they're starting crying together. I also bids my goodbye after saying thank you for what she did to serenity through the years.

-

" you okay?" I asked her as I intertwined our hands together. We are here already inside the plane and she's beside me on the window side.

" yeah, I am just nervous and at the same time excited." she said then smile at me. I kiss her forehead then whisper at her.

" you should sleep, we still have a long flight to go." I said the saw her nodded to head.

" I love you, lovey." she said and I can't help but to smile cause it's my first time hearing that endearment after a long time. And she rarely calls by that.

She lean her head on my shoulder as she clung her arm around my arm.

" I love you more, baby. " I said then cares her head. Minutes later I just noticed that she's already fallen asleep cause her breathing feels heavy already.

" BESTIE/FRENNY!" a loud shout welcome us the moment we step out the airport.

I look to its direction and saw Lim and fernandez running towards serenity. They're running while spreading their arms.

" tangorangejuice namn." I bit my lower lip to contain my laugh as fernandez trip and fell on the ground. I am containing my laugh cause the way she trip and her expression is really hilarious.

" tanga mo naman, Gail." Lim yell because she got drag also and both of them are now on the floor.

" HAHAHA maxine, galie!" Serenity immediately let go of my hand and run to the two whose still on the floor.

Serenity help them to get up and they immediately hug together making me smile ni awe. The two chaotic and a normal one has reunited.

I saw Lim and fernandez wiping their tears as they hug serenity again.

" frenny five years, five years kaming nangulila sayo." lim said at serenity.

We are here at my house already. After that scene on the airport, seems like mybaby forgot about my existence. The three couldn't be separated since where at the airport.

" does mygirl forgot about me?" oh yeah, I am not just the one sulking here. Both me and Maggie and watching them in front of us cause they are sitting on the couch.

" seems like mybaby also forgot about me." I said as I crosse my arms against my chest.

The two listen to serenity story and I can see how Lim and Fernandez change of mood after knowing what serenity's parents did to her.

I can't blame Lim and Fernandez to be angry because I am furious until now. Her parents should pay for everything that they did. Mybaby got traumatised to their doings and I can't let that slip in my hand.

Actually before I go to pennsylvania to find serenity, I settled everything against the Vera family, that why Maggie cancelled my flight. I talk to the about the engagement that serenity evolved with. I told them that I'll do everything to make serenity free from that thing. To my shock, they already disposed that agreement due to a personal reason. And on that day also, Llwella Flare talk to me about it and said that she's that one who convinced her parents to disposed that agreement.

I don't know why she did that, but I am still thankful about it. The only problem right now is, serenity's parents that was nowhere to found.

I am here at the kitchen, drinking some water when someone hug me from the back. I smile as I look to her against my shoulder. I face her and hug her waist as stole a peck on her lips making her smile.

" mybaby is so cute." I said making her pout. I laughed at her cuteness then pinch her cheeks.

" lovey, it hurts." she said as she pout more.

I can't help myself but to lean in and kiss her lips hungrily. I did not disappoint when she kiss me back as her arms encircled around my neck and pull me closer to her.

" mhhh..." I heard whimper making me smile between our kiss. I was about to reach her delicteble ass, when...

" Miss A, Bestie tagal nyo na-oh shit bold." Serenity immediately broke our kiss and face fernandez whose now covering her eyes.

" G-galie." Serenity stutter in embarrass and I can't help but to chuckles.

" aish....oww." I exclaimed when she pinch me. I look at her and saw her glaring at me.

" stop." she said then face fernandez again. She still covering her eyes. I just hug serenity from the back and place my chin on her shoulder.

" a-ano tuloy niyo and naudlot na bold." she said and it makes me laugh to her last word.

" hoy anong bold?!" Lim said the moment she step in inside the kitchen.

I look down as I noticed serenity spacing out, like she's in her deep thoughts.

" tang*na nito, lakas ng pandinig mo pag bold ang usapan ah!" Fernandez said as she smack lim's head making the other one revenge.

" What's Bold?" Serenity suddenly ask making the three of us look at her. I saw her innocent expression while waiting for an answer.

I glared at the two whose holding each others hair. They smile fakely and give me a peace sign.

" Fernandez, Lim!" I tell at them and they immediately run back to the living room.

" Run for your life!" They both yell as they run.

I close my eyes as I sign. I open my eyes and saw that serenity is looking at me with that innocent eyes and shoot she's so cute.

" riri." she said using her baby voice.

How can I explain to her when she's this cute and innocent?

" ahm...it's an adult stuff, baby." I said to her but this innocent cat still not convinced.

" I am an adult already." she said as her brows furrowed.

" No, you're still a baby." I said teasing her to make the vibe turn light.

" RIRI!" She yell as she notice that I am teasing her. I laugh at her reaction and hug her waist then kiss her forehead.

" let's just drop that topic. Let's go to the living area, okay? "I said as I look to her. I saw her pouting then nodded.

I can't help but to pinch again her cheeks and kiss it many times.
