She's crying again. She's been crying so hard for quite sometime now and it really makes us all worry, of course most especially me. More than anything I really don't like seeing her like this because it hurts me as well. Her pain is my pain too. That is why as her twin, I promised to myself that I'll do everything within my power to make her happy no matter what.

But right now, looking at her painfully weeping like this just makes me feel so helpless and I hate it. I can't do anything. I can't do anything for the most special girl in my life right now (apart from my Mom and Laura). I can't because the cause of her pain is something that is beyond my control and certainly inevitable in this house. It's the pain of eviction and we all know that.

I looked at her. The scene is so disheartening. She's currently being sandwiched in between Kisses and Ate Elisse. Naturally, it is very obvious that I am not the only one who is feeling anxious whenever she's crying like this. She is Maymay after all. With her friendly, bubbly and funny personality, it is not surprising that every housemate grew very fond of her already. They all wanted her to be just her usual happy self always as well because apparently, no one can deny that she's definitely a person who brings life and joy into this house every single time.

"Tay.......?" I heared her painfully mumbled all of a sudden.

When I saw those fresh tears streaming down her beautiful face once again, I instantly felt like my heart has been squeezed up so tightly inside my chest. I wish I could just take all tha pain away and just have it with me instead. If it is for her, I certainly wouldn't mind at all.

To be honest, right now, I am having an inner battle within myself because of this overwhelming urge to take her out from Ate Elisse's and Kisses' embrace. I wanted to pull her in my arms and hug her myself instead. So desperately. If she would cry like this, at least let it be in my arms so that I could share her pain. I wanted to be the one to comfort her and assure her that even though Kuya Nonong already left the house, there is still this one person left inside who will treasure her as much as he did or even beyond that. Though definitely not as a father figure (good gracious definitely not that of course!) but as person she can always depend on whatever happens.

Don't cry anymore Maymay. Please. It kills me!

"May tama na." I finally uttered sofly.

I can't take it anymore. I needed to do something and not just watch her being like this or else I will lose it. And so I touched her cheek and pinched her cute nose gently.

"Uy tama na." I said with a little laugh this time before wiping her tears away with my fingers, as well as remove a few locks of damp hair that is now covering her face.

I guess I'll just do what I am best at to console her and that is through my jokes.

"Hala may sipon!" I muttered with a laugh still. Oh well I actually saw some snot leaking from her nosestrils so I automatically pulled my shirt to wipe it since I do not have a tissue or a handkerchief with me at the moment.

"Hala grabe!" I added jokingly as I continued to wipe her snot with my right hand while consolingly caressing her back with my left hand at the same time.

Some viewers might think that what I did is just 'kadiri' or not hygienic at all but I honestly don't care. It's just Maymay and she's my Maymay. It won't matter and never ever it will matter to me anyway.

She continued to cry softly for a couple of more minutes before it finally subsided, thankfully. I continued to play with her face just to keep my comic facade because I learned that it is obviously effective. She did stop weeping after all. I also noticed that she started to move herself away a little from Ate Elisse' and Kisses' embrace now.

Now is the chance Edward! I told myself encouragingly.

As soon as I found an opening, not wanting to waste even a single second, I immediately took her by the shoulders and enveloped her with my body for a twinnie hug. I almost can't contain the relief that I felt when I finally be able to feel her tiny frame, safe and sound in my arms.

"Okay na. Okay na." I whispered to her smilingly as I continued to caress her back consolingly.

We stayed like that for a few moments before she pulled herself away from my embrace much to my dismay. And then right after, she did something in surprise which literally caught me off guard for a moment. She actually wiped her own snot and her right palm on my shirt this time.

"Hmmnn sarap!" I said with a fake indignation as a reaction to that. Though I admit that it was a poor attempt because I can't keep myself from smiling like a fool anyway.

"Yuck yuck eww eww!" I just added jokingly and then wiped the remaining traces of tears and snot on her face with the hem of my shirt once again.

She smiled in return for a second which eventually turned into a few chuckles afterwards.

Wew!

I almost fell down on my knee at that. I seriously felt like sunshine just entered the house upon witnessing that little, beautiful stint of hers even though it is obviously night time already and that the thing that I just thought right now is nothing but plain ridiculousness after all.

Nabuang na naman ako!

I guess seeing her laugh at this moment is just really all I needed. To me it is everything.

Danke Gott, ich danke Ihnen so sehr! I mutedly uttered to above in gratitute for that.
