Love Me Again (On Going Revisions)

Chapter 22

It's been so long.... But here I am writing my feels on a rainy day. Sorry for the long wait. 😳💔

------------------

It was still dawn when Marian woke up disoriented, trying to remember what happened earlier. She fell asleep beside Gabriel, her hand on his tummy while her head rested on his chest.  She slowly move her head up with a half smile while looking at his handsome face. Her eyes stuck on it for a couple of minutes and reminisce this significant moment.

'Hmmmnn! Morning mahal' his lips landed on her cheek.
She smirk, move for a while.
'Ang aga Hon.' She pulled him closely. Gabriel held her hand intertwined and place a soft kiss on it. His eyes on her.
'Hmmmnn! Nakatingin ka na naman sakin.' She said upon opening her eyes.
'I love you my 3 am thoughts.' Then give her a peck on her lips.

After a few, She slowly pulled the blanket up to his chest and carefully remove his hand that wrapped on her waist. She step on her shoes, get her cardigan and headed on the veranda. Marian crossed her hands over her chest while her eyes closed. She feels the cold wind that blows her hair. It's only 3:30 am.

She breath in. 'Kaya mo to Yan kakayanin mo!'  She motivate herself.

For snap, she shift her eyes onto him. "I have done so much and I almost lost everything fighting for you and now maybe it's time..." She wiped the small tear that form on her eye.

-------------
Two days since Gabriel was discharged in the hospital and everything seems back to normal particularly with his Marian's treatment.

'I'll take care of this Tita Gia.' Carmina offered, she's helping her organizing the guest room while her sister is busy playing with her cousin. Gia handed her the small box. 'Thank you, please sa basement na lang yan Carms if ever Kuya needs that.'

'Okay Tita.' She took it from her.

Carmina carefully open the basement door placing the box on the small table. Her eyes roam around the area while she walk to see the old stuffs inside it. There are so many old memories inside she guess when accidentally she step on something that lead her to the floor. 'Shit clumsy' then she groped an object beside the old frame as her hand move, she saw the old photo. She get it to see who's in the image and saw three people. She think they were all teenagers. She suspect on the left side is her Papa and on the other side is her Mama but  she's not familiar with the woman in the middle.  She looks like an angel but her skin is just fair. She never seen her.

'San mo to nakuha Carms?' She asked upon staring at the photo.

'Sa basement Tita nakita ko lang sa floor.'
