Aurora Isabelle Alonzo

Tulad nga ng inaasahan namin ay saktong hapunan na kami nakarating sa aming destinasyon, ginising niya lamang ako nang makarating kami sa isang pribadong villa. He rented the whole place for us, we're alone in a freaking island!

"Hey sunshine? We arrived now, let's go. I'm sorry to disturb your sleep". Aniyang matamis saakin. I don't know why but I suddenly felt lazy walking so I decided to asked him to carry me instead. "I'm lazy, can you carry me?". I asked. He giggled and smiled at me, he leaned closer. "Acting like a baby huh?". He asked in a husky tone. Those words send shiver down my spine, he's starting with his tricks. It does work every single time and I can't do anything about that so yeah fuck it.

My eyes are still close but I can sense that he leaned closer to me, I can feel his breathing and he smells like a sweet strawberry. "Yeah I am, carry me please?". I begged. He giggled once more and started to reached me, he carried me in a bridal style. I placed my both hands on his neck and smell his sweet scent, this is wonderful and it feels like a dream. If I was dreaming about this, I never want to wake up again. I'd rather stay like this with him forever.

Buhat buhat niya ako hanggang sa makarating kami sa loob, ibinaba niya ako sa malambot na sofa at tinggal ang mga sapatos ko. "Hey are you asleep? Do you want me to take you to the room instead?". He softly whispered in my ears. I opened my eyes and met his, I smiled and shook my head. "No I'm fine, I'm wide awake now". I replied. Tumayo ako at umupo ng maayos, nang maka upo ako ay siya naman tong humiga at ginawa pang unan ang mga binti ko.

His hair is soft, natutuwa akong pag laruan ang mga iyon kaya dahan dahan kong hinaplos ang buhok niya. It even smelled strawberry as well, Thor must really love strawberries and vanilla. "Where are we? It looks wonderful in here". I delightedly uttered. Bahagya akong tumango sa kaniya, he's smiling sweetly again and now he's also playing with my long hair. "We're still in Batangas but we're in Fortune island, we'll stay here for one week". Masaya niyang tugon sa tanong ko. We're playing each other's hair, para kaming mga pusang nag lalaro.

My brows furrowed. "A week? Hindi ka ba abala? Sobrang dami mong oras ah pati isa pa kaylangan ko mag aral". I reminded him. Kung siya ayos lang na hindi mag aral ng isang linggo, eh papaano ako? I have coming up exams at dapat maipasa ko lahat yon. He chuckled and stood up, he sat normally and faced my direction. "Yeah I knew you'd say that, I bought your books with us so I can help you study". Walang pag aalinlangan niyang tugon sa sinabi ko. Eto nanaman tayo sa 'aral' na sinasabi niya, or baka aral naman kase talaga tapos madumi lang ang isip ng kapatid ko kaya kung ano anong imainasyon ang naiisip niya.

Tipid akong tumawa sa kaniya, I leaned closer to him and placed my head on his shoulders. "I missed you Thor, I'm sorry for being asleep for too long". I spoke in apologetic tone. He patted my head and caressed my hair softly. "Dawn, you don't have to apologize. I should be the one cause it's my fault for being careless, it cause you to be in a coma and missed your life". He regretfully replied. Sa kanila na nga nangyari na aksidente ang nangyari at hindi niya naman ginusto iyon kaya dapat hindi na niya sinisisi ang sarili niya tungkol sa nangyari, whatever happeneds is already in the past and what matters is present and our future. Even if it's his fault, I won't blame him because he never left me and took care of me until now.

"Yeah I missed my life because I missed us, you are my life Thor". I giggled. I wonder how he cope with the situation, I was asleep for two years. Two birthdays, Christmas, new years and Valentines that I wasn't there beside him. "I celebrated everything beside you Dawn, I'd rather do that than look for someone else. I vowed to myself that you're the first and last girl I wanted to spend my whole life with and nothing could change my mind". Malambing niyang tugon saakin. Lakas naman maka dream guy neto ni Thor, kinikilig ako! Ang hirap mag tago ng ngiti kapag talagang masaya ka.
