UNEXPECTED EXCHANGE (completed)

CHAPTER 35

Bella's POV.

I feel a sudden ache in my neck, when I open my eyes. Nakahilig ako kay Bryan, did he moved my head? Nakasukbit parin sa tenga ko ang AirPods, I checked the time, almost 3pm in the afternoon. 30 minutes ago when the plane take off, 30 minutes nadin pala akong nakatulog sa balikat niya.

Nakaramdam ako ng ihi, there's a flight attendant who just passed by, "uhmm miss is the toilet available?" I ask, she smiled at me. "Ah, yes ma'am." I stood up and went to the toilet at the back. I try to find the others pero nasa unahan ata sila eh.  I went at the back of the toilet kasi ito yung malapit. I stepped inside and peeing, I feel relieved after I wash my hands use alcohol and go outside of this mini comfort room.

Pagkalabas na pagkalabas ko gutom naman agad ang ininda ko, hindi pa pala ako nakaka kakn simula kaninang umaga. Pagbalik ko sa upuan I see Bryan wake up already, bat siya nagising? His eyes really look tired. "Where did you go?" He ask. "In the toilet, why?" Hindi niya ako sinagot at biglang nag vibrate ang tiyan ko. He look to it, so am I, and then we stare at each other. I smiled bitterly, "kailan huling meal mo?" He ask with the voice of anger. "I can't remember." I said.

The last thing I know he called the flight attendant. "Uhm miss. do you have any heavy meal?" He ask, "yes sir, we have filipino food and beef steaks pastas." The flight attendant said. "Can I have adobo, is adobo available?" The woman just nod. "One adobo and the steak."

"That's all sir?"

"Yeah."

He said, the woman is about to walk away pero may pahabol pa si Bryan, "and one bottled water. Sorry." Bryan say sorry because of his inconvenient and now he's attention is back to me. "Why you didn't eat?" Tanong niya na medyo naiinis, "I don't know maybe I forgot." Wala naman na siyang magagawa nangyari na eh. We're just waiting for his order speaking of yan na, "here you go sir." Ibinababa ko ang table na naka dikit sa seat ng nasa unahan namin. Bryan put the first meal on my table and the steak put it on his. After he pay for it, I start to dig in. I'm really hungry ngayon kolang naramdaman ang gutom.

"Dahan-dahan." I look at him with full of food inside my mouth, he's crossed his arms. I just keep on eating, I done know but I didn't see him eating the steak. Would he eat that? "Oh.." I look at him, inilagay niya sa table ko ang steak, "is this mine?" He nods, "hindi ka kakain?"

"I'm not hungry." After he said it, yung steak naman ang kinain ko, I'm just keep on swallowing foods inside of me. I see his hand offer the bottled water, I look to it for a seconds then he opens it for me. I drink the water until my throat is free from food and I start from swallowing again. Until I can't eat anymore because of fullness. "Ok kana?" He ask, "yeah, I'm full so much." he smiled at me, minutes later sobrang tahimik lang namin dito. I'm looking at the window, hindi ko siya pinapakiramdaman.

"Ang paa mo ok naba?" I turn around to him, "yeah, ok na ginamot kona to."

"Good." I felt a sudden joy in my heart, maybe because he's concern about me. Nakaka overwhelm ng pakiramdam, I miss the way he being like that. Before, and now.

Nagising ako ng may humahagod sa buhok ko, I didn't open my eyes. I know that it was Bryan doing it, nakatulog ako ulit, minutes later I can't feel his hands anymore to my head. I open my eyes and I see him sleeping, I checked the time 2:30pm. Ang himbing ng tulog ko, I'm not just sure if he also does kasi kanina pako ata nakasandal sa kaniya sa pangalawang pagkakataon.
