One Last Time: A girl in the crowd

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Chapter Fourteen

Scarlet's POV

"Baekhyun." sabi ko at bumangon sa pagkakahiga. I gripped the bed sheets tightly, my heart is beating unbelievably fast.

I don't want to loose him.

"She's awake." sabi ni Chanyeol.

"Are you okay?" tanong ni Kyungsoo.

"Maybe" sabi ko at lumingon kay Baekhyun.

"Are you sure?" tanong ni Xiumin.

"Okay na talaga ako, I just had a very bad dream, a dream that I don't want to recall." I sighed, I just don't want them to probe more. I looked at Baekhyun blankly.

"Hi there." bati ni Baekhyun sa akin at hinawakan yung kamay ko. I just gave him a bitter smile.

"I know you're mad." sabi nya.

"Am not." sabi ko.

"We promised not to lie with each other." sabi nya.

"I'm just a little bit disappointed." sagot ko sa kanya.

"I'm sorry." he said and kissed my knuckles.

This simple gestures of Baekhyun can easily make my heart beat erratically.

"It's alright, I'm used to it." hindi ko nga alam kung saan ako humugot ng lakas ng loob para sabihin sa kanya yon. I think I'm just really disappointed.

"Sorry." tanging sabi ni Baekhyun.

"Don't you have a schedule today?" tanong ko sa kanya at umiling lang sya.

"Are you going to scold me." sabi nya at yumuko. Hinawakan ko yung isa nyang kamy, kaya napalingon sya ulit sa akin.

"Then you need to rest." sabi ko at binigyan sya ng isang ngiti. Real smile.

"Ano ba yan, lahat naman kami dito pagod 'tas sya lang yung o-offeran ng pahinga." bulong ni Kai.

"Sorry." sabi ko at nagpeace sign inalalayan ako ni Baekhyun na umupo.

"Thank You." sabi ko at nagbow ng mataggal. "Thank you kasi palagi nyo akong inaalala, at thank you kasi inaalagan nyo ako na para bang tunay nyon kapatid. Thank you talaga." sabi ko habang nakabow parin. Lumapit sila sa akin at pinaupo ako pa balik.

"Ano ka ba nagbibiro lang si Kai ka nina." sabi ni Kyungsoo at'saka siniko si Kai.

"Oo nga alam mo naman kami, mahilig mangsira ng moment." sabi naman ni Chen. I don't really expect Chen to say that, well we all know that he likes to goof off a lot.

"Pinapamukha nyo kasi sa amin na ang tanda-tanda na namin pero single parin kami. Kaya tumigil ka nga dyan." sabi naman ni Xiumin.

"Sinong matanda, for your information bata pa ako." pangiisnob ni Sehun.

"Bata parin ako." sabat naman ni Kai.

"Eh, mas matatanda naman yung mukha." sabi ni Xiumin na para bang hinahamon yung dalawa ng modelling.

"Kita mo mga baliw to, hindi to napupuyat, kaya wala lang yun sa amin na binantayan ka, kasi mahal ka namin." sabi ni Chanyeol.

"Kahit mas matanda ka pa kesa kay Kai at Sehun, ikaw parin ang bunso namin." sabi naman ni Suho.

"Tandaan mo yan ha, baby girl? Group hug." sabi ni Chen at nagyakapan nanaman kami.

Biglang nasira yung moment namin nang may bigla kaming narinig na cellphone na nagriring. Napunta naman yung atensyon namin kay Baekhyun.
