A Reader's Own Love Story

Chapter 10

Its a very busy week. Sobrang daming requirements ang kailangan naming ipasa. Wala na kong time para sa kahit anong bagay.

I also dont have dont to eat. Damn it. Kaliwa't kanan ang dami ng kailangang gawin.
Hindi na din kami nakakapag kita ni Drake or kahit text or call man lang.

Tinambakan kami ng paperworks ng mga profs namin. Sunod sunod din ang deadline.

Its already 2am in the morning but Hattie and I are still awake. Tinatapos pa namin yung plates namin.

"Hattie. Bababa muna ko sa convenience store. Do you want something or anything? We havent eat lunch nor dinner."

"Just a cup of noodles. Thank you Gwy." She said without looking on me.

Nagmadali na ako pababa at bumili ng pagkain. Bumili na din ako ng chips at kung ano anong nakita ko don.

Pagkadating ko sa condo inayos ko lang yung mga binili ko. Naglagay na din ako ng hot water for the cup noodles. Minadali na din namin ni Hattie yung pagkain dahil wala na kaming oras. Dalawang research paper at tatlong plates at isang reaction paper ang ipapasa namin tomorrow or should I say mamaya.

4th year college in engineering is super stressfull. Ghad I looked like a zombie. I havent sleep even just a minute or two.

Its already 6:30 am kaya nag simula na kaming mag ayos.

I did my morning routines. And prepare myself for school. I put a concealer on my face to hide my eyebags.

The whole day went well. And Im happy to say that finally, makakahinga na kami ng maluwag dahil wala ng masyadong gagawin this week.
Magkakaroon na din kami ng time na bawiin yung mga sleepless nights namin and also makakabawi na kami ni Drake sa isat isa.

We decided to go hiking tomorrow. Ngayon nalang daw siya ulit makakapag hike since his brother is not in the Philippines. I actually didnt know that he has a brother. An older brother to be exact.

"Love. Lets go. Konti nalang oh." Yaya ni Drake sakin dahil nag stop ako sa pag akyat dahil hindi ko na kaya. Gosh nagkakamuscle na yung legs ko huhu.

Inabot niya sakin yung handkerchief para ipamunas sa pawis ko.

We started to hike further. Drake is guiding me dahil minsan ay nadudulas dulas ako at minsan ay natatapilok sa mga maliliit na bato bato.

"Are you tired?" Umiling lang ako at sinenyasan siyang tumuloy na kami. After 62838919101162727 years. Yes ganyan kahaba nakarating na din kami sa tuktok.

Nagpahinga lang kami sandali at inayos ang dala dala naming tent. Yes hindi naman halatang pinaghandaan namin to. LOL.

"Lets sleep. Im damn *I yawn* tired." Dahil sa sobrang pagod nakatulog ako kaagad.

I woke up around 5am. Pero wala si Drake sa tabi ko. So I get up and wash my face and then nagtooth brush na din ako.

After that I saw Drake walking pabalik sa tent namin.

"Love. Goodmorning.  Lets go may nakita akong river sa malapit. Lets swim there." He said and started to fix our things.

"Goodmorning too. Okay then lets go. I feel sticky thou."

After 5mins of walking narating na namin yung river na sinasabi niya. Well its clean at malamig ang tubig.

Its almost sunset ng makauwi kami. Hinatid ako ni Drake sa condo.

"Thanks for going with me love. I know hiking is not your thing. I owe you one." he gave me a peck on the lips.

"Anything for you love. Take care. I love you. Bye."
