Clash to Crush

Chapter 27

--------

"Kaycee!"

"Kaycee!"

I know Im still crying. Nararamdaman kong tumutulo parin ang luha ko...

"Kaycee..."

I know who owns that voice. 

Alam kong siya yan

Si Ace yan...

Binuksan ko ang mga mata ko...

I dont know... Pero bigla ko nalang siyang yinakap.

"Shhhh... Shhh... Im here.." Hinahaplos niya lang ang buhok ko at pinapakalma ako

"I... I had a bad dream..." Sabi ko sakanya habang umiiyak...

"Shhh... Ayos na... Wag ka ng umiyak. It was just a dream.. Ok?"

I was just a Dream.

"Right." Bumitaw na ko sakanya at pinunasan ko na yung mga luha ko...

"Thanks.... For waking me up" Bulong ko sakanya.

"No prob.  Iyak ka na kasi ng iyak.. Ano ba kasing panaginip yun?" ... I cant tell you... I just cant...

"Wala..."

"Sige, Matulog ka nalang ulit. Malayo layo pa eh." - Ace

"Asan si... Si Peter?"

"Nagpaiwan siya sa Manila. Pinalipat niya ko dito" -Ace

Sumandal nalang ulit ako sa window... 

It was just a dream...

It was just a dream...

A dream..... With meanings?

No... Panaginip lang yun. Panaginip lang... Na walang ibigsabihin.

"Cant Sleep?" Tanong ulit sakin ni Ace

Di ko siya sinagot pero nagulat nalang ako ng bigla niyang hawakan ang ulo ko at ipinasandal ito sa balikat niya. Feeling ko umiinit mukha ko...

"Huy t-teka lang naman Ace... Baka may makakita niya kung ano pang isi---"

"Shhhh. Matutulog ka. Patutulugin kita kaya wag kang magalaw" pagputol niya sakin.

Hinayaan ko nalang siya at nagpanggap na tulog. Kumakanta siya shet!

Takte. Kainlab ang boses niya sheeeeet.

"I look at her and have to smile

As we go driving for a while

Looking nowhere in the open window of my car

And as we go the traffic light

Watch them glimmer in her eyes

In the darkness of the evening

And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

We stop to get something to drink

My mind pounds and I can't think

Scared to death to say I love her

Then a moon peeks from the clouds

Hear my heart that beats so loud

Try to tell her simply

That I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

Oh and I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

Oh and I know this love grow

Oh I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat

Oh and I can't keep my eyes on the road

Knowing that she's inches from me

And I've got all that I need

Right here in the passenger seat"

"Nakakapeste Kaycee, Alam mo yun? Sana di nalang kita nakilala" Ouch. Ang sakit nun sobra

"Hindi ko alam. Pero sayo lang ako nagkaganito. Nakakabakla kasi na sa tuwing kakausapin kita kailangan ko pang pilitin ang sarili kong huwag mautal"

"Kabaliwan nga ata to eh. Di ko alam paano kita liligawan." Bahagya siyang tumawa pero ramdam ko yung sakit. 

"Paano ba naman mangliligaw ang lalaki sayo? Ibang klase ka kasi masyado."

"Pero wala na tong atrasan. Di ko na napigilan eh, nahulog na ko."

Tumahimik sa for 3 mins. bago siya ulit nagsalita.

"Goodnight Kaycee" 

Ace... Hindi naman ako kakaiba eh. Hindi naman diba? Napaka ordinaryo ko din. Ngumingiti, tumatawa, umiiyak, kinikilig, nasasaktan, at nagmamahal din ako. Siguro mahirap nga akong ligawan pero hinihintay ko lang naman yung lalaking hindi susuko sakin. 

Ewan ko ba pero nung napangahinipan ko yung mga bagay na yun... parang may kakaiba. Oo panaginip lang yun, pero habang nangyayari yun... parang lahat nung nararamdaman ko totoo. Parang totoong naguguluhan ako nung una at nasaktan ako nung sinabi niyang aalis siya. 

Pero alam ko namang impossible yung mahal na kita hindi ba?

Sa ngayon hindi pa... ata. 

Goodnight Ace.
