Chapter 26

Fix It

Why do romantic movies have kissing scenes? Seriously, it's what makes Amethyst in even more rage. It's not impossible for her to go rampage any moment.

Buti na lamang talaga at iba ang If I Stay sa ibang romantic movies. The way it was film was different and also the arrangements of the scenes was not like the other movies. Kadalasan flashbacks lang yung mga romantic scenes.

It's like this. When a romantic scenes comes in (which is just in flashback), Amethyst will digest the scene and when she's about to just burst in anger, the flashback ends. When it is the present scene, she'll calm down.

When the movie was coming to it's end, the scenes gets heavier with the drama. Amethyst just can't stop herself from crying. Nadadala ito sa bawat scenes. Idagdag pa na naalala niya ang nangyari sa rooftop sa kanila ni Archie. That kiss. That freaking kiss.

She remembered what he said. That he kissed her for an unknown reason. That's close to kissing without feelings, right?

And with that, she just cried. Hard.

Felix was alarmed because of her crying. Natataranta itong naghanap ng tissue. He was glad that there's one on the bed side table. Binigay niya iyon sa kanya.

"Why am I surrounded with girls that cry so hard?" he unknowingly asked out  loud. She chuckled.

"Don't ask me."

Hinimas himas ni Felix ang likod ng kapatid. Amethyst just cried there.

"Do you want to tell me what happened?" Felix asked her a while later. She was calming down a little.

Umiling ito. "Not yet."

He nodded. "Okay."

"You can go now. I'm fine."

"Are you sure?"

She nodded. "I'm good. Itutulog ko na lang to."

"O-okay."

He hesitantly walked out of her room. He doesn't know if it was the right decision. To leave her just like that. If only he knew what happened then at least, he'll know what to do.

Felix is totally clueless of what happened with Amethyst. Nagulat na lamang ito nang lapitan siya ng kakambal kanina na galit na galit at halata pa na galing ito sa pag-iyak. Romeo was behind her. He thinks it's his fault but Amethyst said otherwise. Nang inaya siya ng kakambal na umuwi, wala na siyang ibang nagawa kundi ang iwan ang natutulog na si Samantha kay Romeo. Which reminds me...

Kinuha ni Felix ang cellphone sa bulsa niya. He looked for Samantha's name on his phonebook then called her. He was already in his room when she picked up. Or did she?

"Pre, si Romeo to."

He tsk-ed. "How's Samantha?"

"Natutulog pa din."

"Are you still in Roosevelt?"

"Wala na. Andito na kami sa tapat ng bahay ni Samantha. Dito na kami matutulog nila Archie. Gabi na din kasi."

He gritted his teeth in annoyance. Romeo, in Samantha's house?

He heard an unfamiliar woman's voice on the other line. She's inviting everyone in. He couldn't help but ask Romeo who just spoke.

"Nanay ni Samantha. Sige na, pre. Sasabihan ko na lang si Samantha na itext ka pagkagising nya."

Romeo didn't let him talk and just ended the call. Nabwisit lalo si Felix. Of all people, si Romeo pa talaga ang kauna-unahang nagbaba sa kanya ng phone. He's always the one to end the call, not the other way around. Damn you, Romeo.
