On the Wings of Love, August 10 na! ♥
-His POV-
"Are you enjoying the view?" I asked her.
We are now in Picnic Grove in Tagaytay. I decided to go south of Manila for us to have a different surrounding from the city.
"Oo, ang ganda pa rin pala dito. Bata pa 'ko nung huli akong pumunta dito. Buhay pa si mommy no'n."
Then I remembered the day she confessed about her family issues, it was three years ago. Every time she tells that story, her eyes possessed the same sadness that I know I cannot erase from her.
She smiled, "Salamat ah. Ayoko sana talaga lumabas sa apartment pero pinilit mo 'ko. At kung hindi mo 'ko nakumbinsi hindi ako ulit makakapunta sa lugar na 'to."
We were looking at the Taal volcano as the wind brushes our hair.
"That's nothing. I'm happy to see you happy, Nadine. I promised to help you in everything, right? I'll always do what I can, just for you."
She looked at me as her forehead crinkled. "I'm just curious of why you're like this to me James. Really, why do you care so much for me?"
I admit I was taken aback by that question. But what can I do? I just can't tell her how I feel. She might not understand and she might just hate me. I have to do the best I can for her to trust me. And maybe that time, she remembered our past already.
I looked straight to her eyes, "Because I'm your friend. We missed out on each other and this might be my only way to catch things up between us the past years."
"Ha? Bakit nga pala nawala ka? I mean bakit nung gumising ako no'n sa hospital, wala ka?"
Her next question triggered me to remember the accident. It was still vivid to me. It was terrifying. Nadine's expression there pains me so much. She was so scared that she was trembling and then everything went black for me.
"I have to go back to the States before your accident. My father ordered me to continue architecture there." I lied.
She looked to the volcano and smiled, "Ah, kaya pala. So how's America? I mean bakit ka pa bumalik dito kung nasa States na ang parents mo?"
I sighed before coming up with another lie. This is really hard than I expected it.
"I just believed that my expertise is more needed in here. There's a ton of architects in there. And then we met again so that's another reason."
She hit me by the arm and said, "Bolero ka pala. Tara, kain na muna tayo. Mag-ha-hapon na rin, e."
