Eyes Of Love

Chapter 2

One thing I can't understand is that I am missing his voice for the whole day, parang nagsisisi ako na tumakbo ako kasi what if, hindi na ulit kami magkita. Paano ko sya hahanapin samantalang Emman lang ang alam ko sa kanya...

Lumipas ang buong araw at tanging sya lamang ang laman ng isip ko. Alam kong hindi dapat, pero... Ewan ko ba, there's a connection between me and that guy.

After eating dinner, hindi na ako nag-atubili, at pinilit ang sarili na matulog. I closed my eyes, umaasa na magkita pa ulit kami ni Emman.

Slowly, I catched my sleepiness. When I opened my eyes, alam kong nasa panaginip na ako, and yes, I succeeded. Same place, same moment. I was sitting on a bench, and the environment is peaceful.

"Sabi ko na nga ba babalik ka." I heard a whisper in my ear which gives me a feeling of butterfly in my stomach. Ugh, his voice really makes my heart beat faster.

Sa sobrang pagkabigla at excitement ay bigla ko syang nayakap ng mahigpit. I wasn't thinking right that time knowing that the person I am hugging is a stranger. He hugs me back tightly and said "Mmmm.. Grabe namang yakap to, parang ayoko nang kumawala."

Maya-maya pa ay natauhan na ako at hiyang hiya sa ginawa ko. Tinanggal ko ang aking kamay mula sa pagkakayakap sa kanya at umupo ng pormal sa aking pwesto.

"Sorry, I was just... Uhmm. A-I did not mean to~..hindi ko.,,. Hindi ko sinsadyang ma ano.. Uhmm.. Don't get me wro-"

"Shhhh, can you please finish your sentence first before stating another one, ang totoo, namiss mo lang talaga ako" he said confidently, but I found it cute.

"Hoy ang kapal mo! Interesado lang ako kasi ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng kausap sa panaginip"

"haha, I was just kidding miss beautiful..It's nice to meet you nga pala. Ikaw naman kasi iniwan mo ako kaagad kahapon. "

"Sorry nga pala"

"Haha, it's fine, alam mo, kahapon diba hindi natin alam ang gagawin, I think we should take a walk paakyat ng bundok maganda dun, 5 hours lang naman ang lakaran, I think sapat na yun para magkakilala tayo~"

"5 hours? No! "

"why not? Alam mo, huwag ka mag-alala, aalalayan naman kita paakyat. Promise, that's paradise waiting for the two of us.. "

"5hrs! Hindi talaga pwede,hindi enough yung time ko dito.. "

"bakit, dahil tutunog ulit yung maingay na yon and you should run again? "

"Oo, at kapag~"

"then why not run for the next time it rang? Sheena, matagal na ako dito ang I never chase that sound, and believe me, it rang for so many times! 5hrs lang! "

"Emman, I can't. 5 years ago, I tried not to chase that sound.. Pinabayaan ko. You know what happened? I've been in a comma for 6 months! Alalang alala ang mommy at daddy ko. 1 minute here in dream world is equal to 1 hour in reality. From that day, sinet na nila ang alarm ko ng 8 hours~"

"So, 8 minutes? "

"Yes, meron lang tayong 8 minutes... "

"dibale.. Basta promise me, you'll always choose this place, malulungkot ako. You're my only friend since then. "

"I'm not sure, hindi ko alam, hindi ako sigurado because I don't even have an idea how to be here, basta ang alam ko, kahapon at ngayon, swerte lang na napunta ako dito~"

"Sheena, it's not about luck, just promise me that you will always think of me, and this place whenever you sleep, kapag inisip mo, magkakatotoo. " he holds my hands while saying this line. Hindi ko maipaliwanag pero gustong gustong gustong gusto ko lang makinig sa kaniya at lahat ng sinasabi nya pinapaniwalaan ko. Na kahit kakakilala palang namin sa isa't isa, naibigay ko na yung trust ko sa kanya. I can feel the love and care in every single word that comes out in his mouth, giving me the feeling that he's so sincere and kind, and gentle, and a good man.

Ayoko pa sanang maputol ang pag-uusap namin ngunit tumunog na ulit ang alarm clock ko.

Palakas ng palakas ang tunog, pero parang ayaw tumayo ng paa ko mula sa pagkakaupo until he began to speak..

"Sige na, huwag ka mag-alala sa akin, just always think of this place at makakabalik ka, inaantay ka na sa mundo mo. See you soon miss beautiful!" after saying those words itinayo niya ako.. I can't even run. Nahihirapan akong iwanan sya. Lumakad lang ako at sinundan muli ang tunog. But in every step, pabigat ng pabigat ang feeling ko.

Ang hirap nya iwanan. Pero kailangan.
