Chapter Twenty-One
Sleep
I'm busy scrolling on my new phone. Yep, new phone. Kasi tinapon niya talaga ang phone na bigay ni Tyler, he is forgiven naman na kasi he bought me new. This guy is... ambot.
Boring.
I decided to search his name, Syvc Andre Couture.
He do really have a good body, I think I'm drooling over it.
Oh wow, kahit pack ng abs niya nakalagay dito. His favorite food, his hobby, his likes... uhh, grabe na to ha. Hindi niyo man lang nilagyan kung ilang inches meron siya.
It says here that he's 28 years old, it means he's 2 years older than me. Ilang taon na nga ulit si Cel? 18?
"How old is Cel?" I asked while looking at the phone.
"22, why?" I didn't answered him, I'm focusing here.
A lawyer, pero bat nakahilata to dito sa sofa? Sumbong ko kaya to, tanggal lisensya nito.
I'm shocked to see that there are so many pictures of us being together, damn we look good. Even sa beach may picture sila saamin. Kahit saan ata sinusundan kami ng cameras, nakakatakot naman ang mga taong tao to.
I typed my name to search what they put on mine, Jewel Amari Arcias.
A freaking... Cardiologist and it also said kinukuha ako minsan para magmodel, I'm busy daw sa hospital kaya hindi basta basta makuha ang attention ko. Tama kayo diyan. Give money first para pumayag ako.
But then holy shit, I'm a Specialist. I wanna go there... maybe they forgot about me and won't accept me anymore.
"Tinakwil na ba ako ng hospital na pinagtatrabahuan ko?" I asked him.
He laughs. He just laughs. Are you completely insane?
"Why would they do that to the owner of the hospital? Silly" he said while holding his stomach. It's not that funny, OA.
Holy shit, I'm rich.
I can't believe this, I'm really rich and smart and gorgeous and ughhh sexy.
It says here that I'm 18????? Uhhh, I'm not. I'm 26, right?
I poked Andre's side. "How old am I?"
"26, why?" Thank God. Screw you all, fake news.
"Nothing," I've continue reading facts about me. Some of the facts are wrong, gosh nakakahiya kayo.
Deceased.
Uhh, excuse me? Who's behind this article? Lemme talk to that stupido.
I'm still walking and I could slap you right in the face.
God, I miss working out.
The world thinks I'm dead, I'm crying huhu.
"What happened to you?" tinitigan niya ko na para bang isa akong idiota. I'm mourning because I'm dead.
"Shhh, quiet" he continued watching TV.
Brianna... what's his surname? Same lang ba sila ni Aziel?
Brianna de la Vega. Model, Chef, so what.
23 years old.
I keep on reading her age. Baka namamalikmata lang ako or something.
It won't change, still 23.
She's just freaking 23 years old?! A year older than Cel, 3 years younger than me and 5 freaking years younger than Andre. What is wrong with her?
"Andre Couture and Brianna de la Vega is now engaged" I read that loudly, engaged na pala kayo eh.
He ignored what I say at kinuha ang phone. "Tama na, kanina ka pa nakatutok diyan, nakakaselos na."
Aba, nagselos sa cellphone. Unbelievable.
"Eh nakatutok ka din naman sa TV ah" kinuha ko ang remote at ini-off ang TV. Fair enough.
"Hindi mo naman ako pinapansin eh" lumapit siya sa'kin and he stick out his hand. Waiting for me to accept his hand. I accepted it and I stand up.
"Let's go upstairs, let's cuddle." he said and we go upstairs. Entering our room.
Kinikilig ako, oo kinikilig ako. Ganito pala ang epekto saakin ng isang Andre.
"Baka magalit si Brianna," sabi ko at nakatayo lang sa may pintuan. He already sit on the bed.
"Are you jealous?" he wiggles his eyebrows.
Me? Jealous? Psh, Oo.
"Hindi ah, syempre wala naman na tayo eh. Tapos fiance mo naman siya. Support ko--" hindi ko natapos ang sasabihin dahil hinila niya ako papunta sa harap niya.
Wow, is it just me or it looks like he's waiting for me to strip in front of him?
I hate my mind.
"Are you breaking up with me?" he asked me.
Umiling ako.
"Baka ikaw, okay lang naman. Matagal naman akong nawala, understandable naman na kailangan mo din ng kasama." I can feel the pain in my heart while saying those words.
He hugged my tummy. "I only love you, You're the only one who can make me happy, who can make me smile even though I'm angry, I will continue to love you for the rest of my life. You are the one that I want and you no one can change that."
Feel ko naluluha ako, Let me remember please. He loves me so much, he's so pure. My heart misses him, his touch and his kisses.
I miss him.
"It's alright, I'll wait on you." he said at binitawan ako. Humiga na siya sa bed.
"Tabihan moko please," he said and tapping the space beside him.
He's so cute.
Tumabi ako sakanya, niyakap niya ako.
I am falling for my husband.
Ano ba Andre, kinikilig ako. Leche naman oh.
Bakit mo ba ginagawa sa'kin to ha.
I should tell him tomorrow what really happened 2 years ago.
He runs his finger through my hair. So satisfying. It helps me sleep.
"I can't sleep kasiii, I'm so tired and I wanna rest but I can't sleep" I said, I wanna cry so bad. Ang dami kong ginawa ngayong araw tapos ayaw pa akong pagpahingahin ng katawan ko.
"Shhh, sleep baby." he said as he runs his finger through my hair. It made me relax and it satisfies me.
He's hugging me and we are lying in the bed.
He keeps on doing that until I feel that I'm sleepy. Finally, some rest I deserve with him beside me.
"I love you." he said and he kissed the top of my head. My eyelids are closing slowly.
I love you too, Andre. See you in my dreams.
