After I calmed myself from the sudden movement I did, I lifted her chin to make her look at me.
"Problem????", I asked.
She looked down but I lifted her face again.
"What's the problem? Why did you ran away awhile ago?", I asked calmly.
She bit her lip and her eyes are trembling.
"I...I-I... Me can't....s-speak English....well.", she said stuttering.
I looked at her in the eyes, telling her to continue.
"...I don't...uhmn.. D-di ko natapos ang highschool....b-because my...mother and father is fighting....a-always...n-naghiwalay sila....at...and...I-I'm...mag-isa--- alone.", she continued while crying.
"Naghiwalay sila?", I asked because I don't know what it is.
"Hiwalay...uhmn... *Showed two fingers that are separating from each other.*, hiwalay...", she said and continued the gesture.
...
Her parents got divorced? Separated?
I felt pity towards her but as well as, I feel like saluting at her.
Why?
Well, despite of her background, she still manage to live on her own. While me? Well let's see after 5 days without work.
An idea went in of me.
"Hey... How about, you teach me tagalog.", I said, but I think she didn't understand.
"Teach..*hand gesture*, me tagalog.", I said.
She immediately smiled after that.
"Then... I will teach you English.", I smiled.
"English, I WILL teach YOU ENGlish.", I empasized it to make her understand.
I tried to look for an object then I saw my belt.
I loosend my belt to remove it, then I raised it, just for her to see it.
"Belt.", I said.
"Belt.", she repeated while smiling, she then pointed the belt.
"Sinturon!!", she said.
"Sin...tron?", I asked.
She titled her head while forming an X with her arms.
"Sin...", she started.
"Sin..??", I repeated.
"Tu.."
"Rooooooon!", she squealed.
"Aaahhh! It's Sin..tu...ROOOOOOOON!", I immitated her tone.
In just a snap, I saw her laughing on the grass as if she will die if she stops on laughing.
Is it wrong?
I just followed her right?
Sin...tu...ROOOOOOOOON!
I just let her laugh and stared at her.
I felt relieved in just seeing her like this. It's good that she's laughing.
"Ahhh, so you will not stop eh?", I smirked.
She then stopped on laughing.
I went up of her, she's now inbetween my legs.
I started to tickle her sides as she wiggled.
"HAHAHAHAH!!!! HOY TIGIL!!! HAHAHAHA", she squealed.
I didn't stop
"YAAAH!!! NAKAKAKILITI ANO BAAA!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA"
I went laughing with her.
After a while, I stopped tickling her, she's already panting haha!
I dropped both of my hands on the grass,both sides of her head.
"You tired?", I asked and acted like so drowned.
"Ahh... No, I not pagod.", she smiled.
"Pagod?", I repeated.
"Tired.", she simply said.
We both smiled and chuckled then she looked at me.
"Teach...me.", she mumbled.
I smiled at her for an agreement.
"I will.", I pinched her right cheek.
"But also....Teach me too."
"Teach me.", I repeated.
She showed me a thumbs up while smiling.
As the wind goes by, we didn't noticed that we stared at each other for a long time.
Also without knowing, I carressed her face while bringing my face close to her.
Until...
"HOY KUNG GAGAWA KAYO NG MILAGRO WAG DITO! MAAGA PA UY!"
A man shouted as Echoserang Kapre blushed and pushed me off of her.
Eh?
