Chryss

There's a war inside my head. I am so torn between fulfilling my promise without complication and following the wild beating of my damn heart.

Kaya't habang nakatitig ako sa incoming call ay hindi ko mapag-desisyunang sagutin iyon o ano. I am battling in my mind. It doesn't help too how Senechov gazed at me with a puzzled eyes. As if he have an idea of my confusion. As if he knew that my thoughts are in disarray right now.

Napatungo ako. I sighed heavily. I guess I have to answer this now. Walang mangyayari kung hindi ko ito sasagutin.

Hindi na ako nagpaalam pa at lumayo mula sa kanila. It's better to be safe.

"Oliver." Paunang bati ko.

"Chryss, we already booked our ticket."

Napapikit ako. I already expected this but I never thought it would be this soon. I was hoping it'll be weeks or months from now. Not now.

"Tomorrow, we'll ride the plane. Will you come in the airport to meet us?" He gently asked.

Muli akong napabuntong-hininga. Then decided quickly. Kahit na ano pang gawin kong pag-iwas na mangyari ito ay wala na akong kawala pa. This is meant to happen.

"Of course, I will."

"Thank you." He sighed in the other line. Like a weight has been lifted in his shoulders.

I felt so bad. I knew he was just trying to help me. Oliver never meant anything bad for me. Since time immemorial, he's been there to take care of me. He always see to it that he can give all my needs.

And I felt so undeserving.

"I'll definitely tour you here in the Philippines! See you." I tried to keep my tone lightier and livelier.

"Hmm, I will expect that." He murmured.

I guess he also felt my hesitations. He knew me so well.

Maya-maya'y nagpaalam na siya. Napabuntong-hininga na naman ako. Wala na yata itong katapusan. I forgot everything for just a little time. Now, it's all coming back.

Tahimik akong tutungo na sana sa mansyon nang magulat ako pagbaling ko!

He's standing while watching me from a little distance!

Kanina pa siya roon? Pero kung i-estimahin ang distansiya namin, I guess he can't hear anything clearly. Tsaka mahina lang ang boses ko kapag nakikipag-usap sa cellphone. Of course, I need to be careful.

"Are you done?" Nakahalukipkip at nakasimangot niyang tanong.

"Uh.. yes?" I raised a brow, slightly confused and scared.

Sabi ko nga hindi dapat ako maging kampante.

"Do you have to answer it?" Tila nagtatampo ang tono nito sabay talikod.

His broad back was in my plain sight. I am almost drooling.

I was left there with a confused expression. I somehow knew he meant about the call but what about it?

I shook my head feeling disoriented. I don't think I'll be able to do my mission flawlessly when he's messing up my mind like this.

Damn you, Senechov Stanford!
