Chapter 38

Napangiti ako nang nakitang nakatulog na ang aking mga anghel. They were so energetic today at alam kong pagod na pagod na sila kaya hindi nila na nakayanang hindi matulog.

Bumalik ako sa dating pwesto at napasulyap sa pwesto ni Lewis.

I want to confront and ask him about us but I'm quite hesitant.

Nahihiya ako. That's what I'm feeling right now. I mean, paano ba dapat mag-react? Paano ako magsasalita? Ano ang sasabihin ko?

You cannot expect me to act normal and relax after that encounter with Lewis. It's just that... It felt so surreal. Napakabilis ng mga pangyayari. So fast I couldn't grasp it.

I sighed to free myself from confusion. I guess... I'll just live with what's happening right now.

It's funny how our situation quickly changed. Half of me was skeptical about this whole situation but then I thought... There's no harm on taking risk. Walang mangyayari kung hindi ka susubok. You have to at least try, kasi hindi mo malalaman ang kahihinatnan kung hindi.

The only problem here is I don't know when to start. Should I start being casual to him as if nothing's happened between us?

The talk I had with Lewis in the cliff somehow made me realized a couple of things. We do not know what will going to happen in the future, but we can at least do something in the present to make our future better. To make our future far from endless pain. Though along the journey, there might be humps that will be getting in our way.

Lutang sa buong pangyayari, mas pinili kong manahimik habang nakatingin sa labas ng bintana ng sasakyan.

I am happy. But I was too overwhelmed to react. The feeling is too euphoric. I cannot withstand it.

Sumulyap ako kay Lewis. Napanguso na lamang ako nang nakitang maaliwalas ang kanyang itsura. He's that happy, huh?

Gusto kong tanungin siya at magsalita ngunit hindi ko alam kung paano. Pinapangunahan ako ng kaba sa tuwing sinusubakan kong ibukas ang aking bibig.

Iniwas ko ang tingin mula sa kanya ngunit hindi ko rin nakayanan at napapasulyap ulit.

To my surprise, he caught me and gave me a grin.

"You can look at me whenever you want, wife. I'm all yours," he said before chuckling.

Hindi ko naiwasang hindi mamula kaya inirapan ko na lamang siya. Why are you so good at this Lewis? You never failed making me flushed!

I cleared my throat before speaking. This thought has been bugging my mind and I couldn't take it anymore.

"What about Danica? How will you deal with her?" tanong ko.

His playful smile vanished and was replaced by a grim line.

Bumuntong-hininga siya at sumulyap sa akin ngunit binawi rin agad ang tingin at humarap sa kalsada.

"I don't know. But I'll try my best not to hurt her physically," mariin niyang sabi. Halata ang galit sa kanyang itsura. Nagtagis din ang kanyang bagang at tila pinipigilan ang emosyon na nararamdaman.

I felt worried about him that's why before I knew it, I already reached out my hand to caress his arm gently. Hoping for him to calm down.

Napatingin siya sa aking mga kamay at agad kong napansin ang pag-iiba ng paraan ng kanyang paghinga. Tila sumikip ito at bahagyang hindi makahinga. Nang ibalik niya ang kanyang tingin sa akin ay doon ko lang napansin ang pamumungay ng kanyang mga mata.
