Isang linggo na rin ang lumipas simula ng bumalik ako sa bahay at nalaman kong wala na don sila mama. Wala narin akong ma contact ni isa sa kanila. Si papa naman hanggang ngayon hindi parin tumatawag.
Sa isang linggong lumipas mas nakilala ko pa lalo si Brent. Palagi niya akong inaalagan, pinagluluto at kung ano ano pa. Hatid sundo din ako ni Brent sa school. Magaling narin sya magtagalog haha. Kung hindi dahil kay Brent ay hindi mabawas bawasan itong bigat sa dibdib ko. Mas napalapit pa lalo ako kay Brent.
" Ands, dinner is ready, kain na tayo " yaya ni Brent. Kaya bumangon na ako at lumabas.
Palagi akong sinospoil ni Brent sa mga favorites foods ko kaya naman feeling ko tuloy eh mas lalo akong tumataba.
Pagkatapos kumain ay niligpit kona ang pinagkainan namin at naghugas narin ng plato.
" movie tayo? " aya ni Brent bitbit ang laptop sa dalawang kamay.
" sureeee. Teka teka maghahalf bath pako eh. Tapos kana ba? " excited na sagot ko.
" I'm done. Clean yourself first, I'll wait for you. " sagot nya. Kumaripas nako ng takbo sa cr haha baka magbago isip niya eh.
Pagkatapos kong magbihis ay lumabas nako sa sala kay Brent. Abah! Prepared masyado haha may dala syang kutson.
" what do you want to watch? Hmnn " tanong niya.
" gusto ko yung the notebook Brent. Matagal na yan pero sabi daw nila maganda daw yun. Ikaw ano ba gusto mo? " excitèd kong sabi.
" anything you say Angel." Sagot din nya.
" yeyyyy " kinonek ni Brent ang laptop nya sa tv kaya naman nahiga na ako dun hahaha . " wala bang popcorn Brent?" Pabiro kong sabi.
" wait, I'll get some for you. " akma na syang tatayo ng pigilan ko sya.
" I'm jist kidding Brent hahaha dika mabola " sabi ko
" I'm serious. I'll get some for the both of us. Stay put ,okay? " haha kaya nanahimik nako. Biro lang naman sana eh diko naman alam na planado nya pala to hahaha.

Brent's POV
Its already past midnight. Ilang movies narin napanood namin but I didn't even understand even just one movie. Si Andi naman may iiyak then she would suddenly laugh. I don't know but I didn't clearly understand everything from the movie.
" Ands, I think we should sleep already " sabi ko sa kanya but I didn't get a reply.
I watched Andi peacefully sleeping beside me. I turn off the television and the laptop. Pagkatapos kong ayusin ang ginamit naming mga bowls, I went directly inside her room to arrange her bed.
Binuhat ko si Andi and placed her in her bed. I kissed her forehead and whisper good night. I then closed her door and went directly inside my room.
I can't sleep thinking about Andi. Alam ko kung gaano nya kagusto mahanap ang mama nya but I can't do something about it. She doesn't want me to.
I force my self to sleep sapagkat umaga na din ng biglang pumasok sa isip ko si Andi. Isang taon nlang din naman and she will be graduating. Nakita ko kung gaano sya ka dedicated sa studies nya and everything she does was perfect.
I really salute my Angel for being so brave, smart and talented.
Mas napalapit ang loob ni Andi sakin and all I want to do was to protect her. Andi is so fragile in terms of everything. I wanted Andi so much. I wanted to be the reason of her happiness but I know, this is not the right time. I want her to finish her studies first coz I know that she has a lot of dreams and I wanted her to achieve that first. I'll support her all the way.
Pinikit ko ang aking mga mata kahit hindi talaga ako makatulog. Mag aalas dos na kaya I badly needed to rest so I could prepare a breakfast for Andi later.
A lot of things was running in my mind. All pf it was just about Andi and Andi. I think I'm going crazy already. Kahit san ako pumunta ay si Andi nalang talaga ang tumatakbo sa isip ko. Kahit pa minsan nasa trabaho.
Mas lumalim pa ang pag-iisip ko hanggang sa di namalayang nakatulog na ako.
