Just friends

Frantic lips

"Aya's going out of the hospital tomorrow, what's your next move?" Kuya Allen told me.

"If I said I'd go to your house and introduce myself, would you call me crazy?" I told him with a smile on my face.

"I don't know how I'd call it, bravery or insanity." He said.

"But, I know this is the best for all of us. Especially for aya." He said.

"Kuya Allen, can I ask you one last favor?" I said

He raise his eyebrows.

"Please??!" I plead. "For aya"

He took a deep breath.

"Okay. Just tonight" he agreed.

I almost jump of joy, and embrace him, but he stop me shoving his hand on my face

"Don't you dare" he said in a low voice.

"Thanks kuya" I said. I never had any siblings before, but it felt nice having to call someone kuya, for once.

"Kuya your face" he said and smirked.
We both laughed, no wonder she's Aya's brother. They have similar qualities.

Headstrong. Loving. And irritable most of the time.

They get mad at each other everyday -  almost every hour, I never saw anyone bicker as much as they do, but talk fondly of each other with other people.

They clearly have "karinyo brutal" with each other.

I am indebted to him. If he didn't help me, I'd probably lost my mind thinking of Aya.

I wonder, can it be like this for their other brother.

I took a deep breath.

Maybe not. Aya's youngest brother wants that dilan for aya, and his older brother doesn't want anyone for her sister.

Crap. I never had this kind of problem before.

As always, I sat beside aya while she sleeps.

"Sorry, did I wake you up?"

"No, I was actually waiting for you" she said, wiping her eyes.

"Why are you waiting for me?" I asked.

"I missed you" she said shyly. I smiled.

"I miss you too" I said and kissed her hand.

She smiled but sighed.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm going out tomorrow." She said.

"Thats good news right, it only means your okay now"

"Anyways, aren't you tired seeing this four corners of your room?" I told her.

"I'm bored here, but..." She paused and looked at me.

"But what?"

"I can only be with you here" she said sadly.

I put my hand on her shoulder.

"Of course not. When you go outside, we'll be able to go to the beach again. What do you think?" I said.

"I'd love that." She said, but there was sadness in her voice.

"I miss the beach" she said.

"Really?" I said. She nod.

"Then let's go"

"Huh?"

"Let's go now" I told her

"But"

"Just go. Before I change my mind." Kuya Allen suddenly interrupted us.
