Chapter 78 - She's here

[Tristan's POV]

"Khate?"

"Parang lalo ka yatang tumangkad ah? Anong ginagawa mo, bakit mag-isa ka lang diyan?"

My chest feels heavy. It's her.

It's her voice.

I'm sure.

I hurriedly look around. She's here? She can see me from here?!

Sandali, baka nababaliw lang ako? O baka naman nananaginip nanaman ako?

Natataranta na ko and I don't know what to do. If someone's just making fun of me, I swear! Makakatikim siya sakin!

But when my eyes passed at the upperbox part of the gymnasium's seats, I saw a girl standing at the aisle between two rows.

Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali.

My heart starts to beat faster and I feel really, really weird.

I walked.. and walked faster hanggang sa malapit na ko, I can see her face. Ugh. Tell me this is not a dream

I start running fast, as fast as my heartbeat right now.

I feel like my chest is going to explode as I approach her.

Sht.

It's.. her.

I stood one step lower than where she is and I looked at her.

She smiled.

"I'm sorry." She said. "I'm sorry, Tristan." Her tears start falling.

I can't believe this. I can't even say a word.

Niyakap ko siya ng mahigpit.. na mahigpit. I can feel her warmth, her breath.

Ikaw ba talaga 'yan Khate? Pa'no nangyari 'yon?

Please tell me it isn't just another dream.

"I'm sorry." Ulit niya.

Bumitaw ako and I looked at her. Hindi ako makapaniwala. Nanaganip lang siguro ako. Pero please, kung panaginip lang 'to, pwede bang mamaya niyo na ko gisingin? O kaya naman, 'wag niyo na kong gisingin?

"Khate?"

Tumango siya kasabay ng pagpatak ng luha niya.

Hindi ko maipaliwanag 'yong pakiramdam. Siya ba talaga 'tong kaharap ko?

Pinunasan ko 'yong mga luha niya.

"Nandito na ko Tristan. Nakabalik ako. Bumalik ako.. para sayo."

"I-Ikaw ba talaga si.. Khate?" She looks a bit different. Medyo pumayat at 'yong mahaba niyang buhok noon, hanggang balikat na lang ngayon.

Natawa siya and she hugged me again. I hugged her back.

"Mukhang marami akong kailangang ipaliwanag sayo."

"Ugh. K-Khate.."

She looked at me.

"Hindi ka nananaginip."

I touched her in her face and.. we kissed.

Ugh. It's her.

It's her!!
