Destiny's Game 6

Urgh! What the hell happened? Bakit parang sumabak ako sa isang weightlifiting competition at ganito na lang kasakit ang katawan ko.

I tried to move myself but heck, the pain is giving me hard time.

"Bro, bro gising na siya." I heard, then I felt someone's hand in my hand.

"Alleah?" A familiar voice echoed in my ear. Parang biglang nawala na lang lahat ng sakit sa katawan ko when I hear his soothing voice.

I slowly opened my eyes and a worried look of Zake welcomed me.

"Thanks God, you're awake." He squeezed my hand and gave me a faint smile.

"Monique!!!" The view of smiling Zake was replaced with a worried Flare. "Geez Monique, where have you been? Bakit ka ba kasi alis ng alis. You could have called a company. What if wala si Zake kanina, Oh God knows what will happen then."

What if wala si Zake kanina?

So, Zake's the one who rescued me. Napangiti ako.

"At nakaya mo pa talagang ngumiti! Geez." Hindi ko pinansin si Flare, I looked at Zake and gave him a smile.

"Thanks for saving me." I took his hand at ako naman ang pumisil nito.

"Aba, aba. Mali na 'to ah, naka three points ka na Zake ah."

"Flare..."

"Three points?" Kunot noong tanong ko. Diba pang basketball yun? Three points shot?

"Yeah, nakatatlong puntos na siya sayo. First, he's the one who saved you, second he kissed you and now... he got to hold your hand. Takte, ako nanliligaw sayo Monique."

Can he repeat what he just said? The second one? Did Zake really...?

"Don't misunderstand Alleah, It's CPR." Sambit ni Zake. Pero... pero kahit na diba? Even if it's a form of CPR, still, our lips met. OUR LIPS MET!

"Where's Ms. delos Santos?" Napalingon kaming apat- including one of our classmates who probably gave me first aid.

"Mrs. Lopez." Sambit namin.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt somewhere?" I blink thrice, totoo ba 'tong nakikita ko? Am I not imagining things?

'Coz I can see clearly at her eyes the hint of worried ness. So tell me, it's not called hallucinating right? Side effect ng pagkalunod?

"Sinabi ko naman kaninang umaga to Listen Attentively. I clearly said na bawal ang pumunta sa malapit na falls because it's slippery. Marami ng namatay doon." Napayuko ako, yeah it's really my fault. I didn't gave my ears kanina.

"Sorry po ma'am." Paumanhin ko.

"Anyway, magpahinga ka. We still have lots of activity tomorrow. You boys, take care of her." After that ay lumabas na siya sa tent.
