CHAPTER 11 - PART ONE

CHAPTER 11 - PART ONE

Daryl's POV

I don't know where I got this guts to hug her.. I just feel like hugging her right now. I feel like I know her pain or how much pain she's feeling right now. Seeing her eyes full of pain makes me weak.. really really weak....

"I don't know what happened but, let me comfort you.. for I think this can make you feel better..." she hesitated to stay at first.. but later on unti-unti kong nararamdaman ang mga kamay niya sa may balikat ko.. Siniksik niya ang muka niya sa may dibdib ko..

Nararamdaman ko ang baba at taas ng balikat niya... at base narin sa nararamdaman kong basa na damit ko, umiiyak siya... sobrang umiiyak siya..

We just stayed like that for I think 20 minutes ng biglang nag-ring yung phone niya.. She broke the hug as she immediately answer her phone..

She took a deep breath and composed herself..

"Mom... how was her??" nagbalik na yung cold na boses niya even her blank expression..

"What?? Oh thank god!! I know she can do it as I had told yah.."
"Yah yah.. take care of her and yourselves as well.. I'm not there to protect you.."
"Ok. Just give me an update everytime.. say my love to her.. bye.." and she ended the call..

Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya.. kita ko yung blankong mata niya napalitan ng saya... I was mesmerized by her face..

--------

Nandito padin kame sa likod ng school building.. tahimik lang kaming nakaupo.. Siguro nasa 10 minuto na kaming nakaupo dito at nananahimik. Di ko alam kung anong sasabihin sa kanya... diko alam kung saan ako magsisimula..

"Uhh.. Ze-" naputol ang sasabihin ko ng bigla siyang nagsalita...

"I really love her.. I really love my sister.. so damn much.." halos pabulong na niyang sabi..

Tinignan ko siya pero sa malayo lang siya nakatingin. Nagpatuloy lang siya pagsasalita..

"I thought she will going to leave us.. Akala ko susuko na siya.. Akala ko bibitaw na siya...Pero kumapit siya.. Lumalaban pa siya.." nakatingin lang ako sa kanya at inaantay ang susunod na sasabihin niya..

"Two years ago, I'm here with her.. but I did not want that to happen... naligwat lang ako sandali.. pero..." bigla siyang tumigil.. sobrang lungkot ng boses niya.. pero hindi siya umiiyak...

"W..w..what happened to her?" diko na napigilang magtanong. sobrang nacucurious na talaga ako..

Mukang nagulat pa siya pero sumagot din naman siya di kalaunan.. "She'd been involved in a car accident and because of that, na-comma siya... hanggang ngayon..."

"Oh, I'm sorry.."

"No its fine.. Its been two years at ang mahalaga.. Lumalaban pa siya.."

"Di ko man siya kilala.. alam ko na lalaban siya at gigising pa siya . naniniwala ako dun" I assured her...

She gave me a weak smile as she nods her head.. "Thanks.. but I guess I need to go.. salamat sa pakikinig.."

"Wala yun tapos nadin naman ang klase.. hatid na kita.. pwede ba??" malay mo pumayag diba??

"Thanks but no thanks.. I have my car and I can drive" paalis na siya ng pigilan ko siya..

"Maybe I can walk with you hanggang sa parking lot.." she just nod her head

----
"Ah salamat ulit... You are a big help.." sumakay na siya sa kotse niya.. bago siya umalis.. kumatok ako sa bintana ng kotse niya..

"Uhm.. kung may kailangan ka o uhmm.. kausap.. don't hesitate to ask me ok?"

"Yes I will" at umalis na siya..

Diko na maintindihan ang sarili ko.. Ngayon ko lang siya nakausap ng matagal pero parang ang tagal na naming magkakilala... Basta, I made up my mind.. I need to protect her no matter what..
