If I Stay

THIRTY-TWO

Keera's Point of View

"Anak, may bisita ka!" My mom shouted. Nasa baba kasi siya. Agad na kumunot ang noo ko, sinong bisita? Imposible namang sila Cy yun kasi panigurado, aakyat yun agad dito. Imposible ring si Jaydon

"Okay Mom, I'm coming" sabi ko na lamang at tumayo sa kama ko. Agad agad na bumaba ako.

"Mom, who's--" Hindi ko natuloy ang sasabihin ko nang makita ko kung sino yung nasa sala, agad na tumakbo ako papunta sa kaniya at niyakap siya ng sobrang higpit. I cried, tears of joy!

"Daddy! I've missed you!" hinagod niya naman ang likod ko

"I missed you too, my princess" lalo akong natuwa. tinulak niya naman ako ng bahagya para mapaharap sa kaniya

"Your Mom is right. You've really grown beautiful" I just pouted. He's teasing me! He wiped my tears

"But you're still a cry baby" and he kissed me on my forehead. I just smiled

"Where's Mom?" I asked him, "I'm here in the kitchen sweetie" I smiled. Nagluluto si Mommy, yeheeey! We're complete right now. Agad na umupo siya sa sofa, so I did the same

"Why you didn't call me dad? Nasundo man lang sana  kita sa airport" I uttered. He just giggled

"I just want to surprise my princess" I just pout, at kumuha ng chocolate sa box na dala dala ni Daddy

"I bought you some chocolates, dresses, shoes and bags baby" Agad na nagtwinkle ang mga mata ko sa narinig ko. Agad ko siyang niyakap

"You really know me Dad" sabi ko sa kaniya, hinaplos niya lang ang braso kong nakayakap sa kaniya

"Of course, para na rin naman makabawi ako sa'yo diba?" I just nodded at humiwalay na sa yakap namin

"I'm sorry wala ako kahapon, nadelayed lang talaga ang flight ko" sabi naman ni Dad

"Dad, It's okay as long as you're here right now" I said to him while smiling

"Kaso Dad, I don't have a place" And I pouted. Naghihintay ako na sermonan ni Daddy pero wala akong narinig

"It's okay Keera. As long as hindi mo napapabayaan ang pag-aaral mo, as long as you're not distracted" sabi niya naman. I just smiled

"Speaking of distraction. I want to meet your boyfriend, Jaydon" agad na napatigil ako sa pagkain ng chocolate at umayos ng upo. Si Dad, he's really easy to get along, may sense of humor at hindi talaga KJ and also he's supporting me on what I want. Pero pagdating sa mga boyfriend boyfriend na 'yan, he's really serious.

"Dad, you're not gonna kill him right?" naghihintay ako sa sagot ni Daddy nang tumawa siya

"C'mon sweetheart, what do you think of me? A killer? Kikilalanin at kikilitasin ko lang naman, princess. But if he gave me a reason that I should kill him, then I'll do it for you" hindi ko alam kung dapat matouch ako or matakot para kay Jaydon dahil sa sinasabi ni Dad.

"I'll just tell him Dad. MagkikIta naman kami bukas" sabi ko naman sa kaniya, he nodded

"How about Cy? Akala ko talaga siya yung magiging boyfriend mo, botong boto pa naman ako sa bata na yun!" sabi ni Dad, agad naman akong napailing

"Dad, can you hear what you're saying?! Dad, you're so gross! Cy and I we're just bestfriends. We know our limits Dad!" sabi ko naman sa kaniya

"Kawawa naman yung batang yun, may gusto yun sa'yo eh" agad na nanlaki ang mata ko, bakit ba ganito Daddy ko?!

"Dad! Stop it!" he just laughed, he's really teasing me huh

"How about Lily?" he asked me, I nodded.
