Chapter 46:
Revi's POV:
"You know what? I'm just gonna do it for the last time. Just so I could tell myself that I have done everything I could just to save our relationship." I said, with a determined look on my face while staring at his intense black orbs. "If it works or not, then I wouldn't be the one regretting."
I have a good feeling about this. A really good feeling. But that good feeling faded as quick as fuck and it just went with the wind. I bit my lip and looked at him.
"But what if it doesn't work?"
I can see the smile slowly forming on his lips as he shook his head. I noticed that this past few days I always feeds his boredom and turns it into a interesting one just by saying or doing things that he thinks are funny. He put his hand above my hand and slightly mess with my hair.
"Then, you got me." He showed his infamous lopsided jerky smile at me. "Best consolation prize ever."
Parang gumaan yung pakiramdam ko dahil sa sinabing yun ni Percy. We've only been here for what? 1 week? And already we're comfortable with each other. As if we've known each other for a long time. As if we're connected. Parang bigla na lang bumukas ang pinto ng personalidad ni Percy sa akin like he's been waiting this whole time to knock on his door. Though I'm still hoping that me and Yñigo will get back together.
To be honest, I still feel the same towards him. If anything, it only made me realize how much I really love him. Everytime I close my eyes it reminds me of our good times. How much he showed me how he cares and I think it's best for me to show him now how much I love him. He's just confused. But I know deep down he will find it in him that I'm the one he loves. Or he loves me more than enough to choose me over his bestfriend. Percy is right after all ... I should have given him the reason to choose me.
"Alright let's go." He said starting the engine and pulling out of the parking lot.
Pinagpromise ko siya na ibalik ako doon dahil sobrang homey ng feeling sa rest house niya na yun. It's suitable for somebody who's trying to recollect themselves. He told me he will, he even told me that he'll bring me to his mom. Kinabahan ako pero naexcite din ako nang sabihin niya yun. She must have been a good, loving and promising mother to Percy to make him so broken after she left him. Bug then again, anyone who lost their mothers will feel just the same. It made a big hole in his heart that's why he's been acting that way, even though he won't say it out loud. I know that's the reason behind it. Pero hindi naman talaga siya ganun. Once you got through his walls, you will see a real sweet, deep and understanding person behind the facade. And I am thankful I got past through those walls.
Buong byahe ay tahimik lang kami. May mga mangilan-ngilan kaming palitan ng mga tanong sa isa't-isa na hindi naman masyadong mahalaga. Parang pinapatay lang talaga namin ang katahimikan sa loob ng sasakyan. Nakatulong din ang traffic sa kaba ko dahil nabigyan ako ng pagkakataon para kumalma ng sandali. Nang malapit na kami ay sinabi ko kay Percy na iuwi muna ako sa bahay. Pupunta na lang ako kay Yñigo kapag nakapagpahinga na ako. Kung makikipagkita man ako kay Yñigo ayokong makita niya ko at my worst. These past few days I didn't have enough sleep and the dark circles under my eyes are very visible now. I look pale too -- must have been the reason why Percy kept on putting too much food on my plate.
Huminto ang sasakyan sa tapat ng bahay namin at parang gumaan ang pakiramdam ko nang makita yun. Napabuntong hininga ako. Namiss ko sila. Hindi ko sinabi na ngayon ang uwi ko dahil nga wala akong phone. Wala siguro akong maaabutan ngayon at mamayang gabi ko pa makikita sila Mama at Papa at mga kuya ko. Mabuti na rin yun para maihanda ko naman ang sarili ko at mapakita na okay ako.
