YOU are STILL my LIFE and my WORLD (discontinued)

Chapter 17: LOST STARS (Christmas Chapter)

Jacob's PoV

(It's better to read while the song 'lost star by adam lavine' is playing)

"Ren, gumising ka na. Pasko na mamaya pero hanggang ngayon natutulog ka pa din" nakaupo pa rin ako at binabantay si Serenity dito.

"Alam ko na, kakantahan na lang kita. Eto kasing kanta to, tugma sya sa sinabi ko sayo kanina eh" sabi ko at kinuha ang gitara ko.

Please don't see just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies
Please see me reaching out for someone I can't see
Take my hand let's see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand
I'd be damned Cupid's demanding back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears and

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
Who are we? Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?
Woe is me, if we're not careful turns into reality
Don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page maybe we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears and

God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark? ooh
And I thought I saw you out there crying, ooh
And I thought I heard you call my name, yeah, yeah
And I thought I heard you out there crying, oh
Just the same, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and this lamb is on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark? ooh
And I thought I saw you out there crying, ooh
And I thought I heard you call my name, ooh
And I thought I heard you out there crying, oh
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?
But are we all lost stars, trying to light up the dark?

"Ayos ba, Ren?" Tanong konat biglang tumulo ang luha ko.

"Merry Christmas, Ren. Mahal na mahal kita" sabi ko at biglang bumukas yung pinto.

"Anong sinabi mo? Mahal mo si Ren?" Tanong nya ng nagagalit.

"Oo, may magagawa ka ba dun? Wala na ba akong karapatan na mahalin sya" sabi ko.

"Kahit na mahalin mo sya, hindi ka nya mamahalin dahil mas mahal nya ako" sabi nya.

"Confident ka naman palang mahal ka nya, eh ano yang ikinagagait mo kung sigurado ka naman palang mas mahal ka nya" sabi ko sabay smirk.

"Merry Christmas!" Biglang sigaw ni Kuya Seb at pasok sa loob.

"Merry Christmas, Kuya" sabi ko.

"Oh? Andito ka na pala Dylan. Ang bilis mo ah" sabi nya.

"Oo, Kuya. Merry Christmas din" sabi ni Dylan sabay bigay ng deayh glare sakin. Tsk. Paskong pasko eh, ganyan sa kagalit.

"Ren, Merry Christmas! Gumising ka na. Dadating sila Mama at Papa may dalang pagkain" sabi ni Kuya Seb habang halata sa boses nya na pinipilit na lang nya na maging masaya para hindi mahawa ang lahat sa lungkot ng pangyayari.

"Gigising din yan kapag andyan na yung pagkain" sabi ko.

Maya maya pa, dumating sila Tita at Tito kasama si Elizabeth at Cassandra na may dalang pagkain.

"Merry Christmas, Ren!" Sigaw nung dalawa habang halata rin sa boses nila yung lungkot pero ayaw nila yong ipahalata "Merry Christmas sa lahat"

"Merry Christmas!" Sigaw ni Tito at Tita habang ang tono ng boses, ganun din.

Habang kumakain kami biglang gumalaw ang isa sa mga daliri ni Ren.

"Ren?" Sabi ni Kuya Seb at biglang dumilat ang mata ni Ren.

"Ren!" Sabay sabay naming sabi at tuluyan na ngang dumilat ang mata nya.

"S-sino k-kay-yo?"

Itutuloy..
