Chapter 23

Chapter Theme - You give love a bad name - Bon Jovi

Cold and salty driplets of water, all I can hear is the crashing waves on the shore and shivery wind of Baler, Aurora.

It was already 4 in the morning when we reach the island of the Valderamas. The air is much colder than the usual. It felts like little ice daggers stabbing our skin in a blow.

Pierre placed a coat on my shoulder as I embrace Camilla on my arms tighter. My hair were dancing as the current whirled.

"It's cold." My voice is even full hoarse.

Naglakad kami saglit sa dalampasigan bago nakarating sa malaking Villa ng mayamang pamilya. The guard immediately brought us inside the villa, isang pamilyar na batang lalaking may suot na ternong pantulog ang sumalubong saamin.

My skin were still cold when we got finally sat at the Valderama's large living room. Luckily may heater sila kaya naman mabilis na bumaba ang lamig saaking katawan.

"Kanina pa namin kayo hinihintay at hindi talaga natulog itong si Ziggy sa excitement na makita ang kaniyang kapatid." Natutuwang saad ni Mrs. Valderama habang hinahaplos ang mga braso ng kaniyang anak.

Nagkatinginan kami ni Pierre, Ziggy?

"We changed Maximo's name to Zirius Ghyl Valderama." Maagap na sambit ni Mrs. Valderama ng mapansin ang kunot sa noo namin ni Pierre.

"It's good to see Camilla so well." Sabi ni Ziggy as he smile staring at his little sister na ngayon ay tulog na tulog pa saaking bisig.

"She loves you, she wanted to see you so bad." Pierre answered as he jerk his finger to Ziggy.

"Maraming salamat sainyo, ate at kuya." Malugod na tinitigan ni Ziggy ang mga mata namin. "I trust you to took care over her and you never failed me. I chose the right person to handle my sister's heart."

Bumilib ako sa labis na galing magsalita ng Ingles ni Ziggy, ibang iba na siya sa Maximo na nakilala ko but his heart never changed, isa paring mapagkumbabang bata.

"Surely she will be happy later as she opens her eyes, she'll finally see you." Sabi ko bago humikab, I think Pierre noticed my sleepyness so he spoke instantly after my words.

"I think we need to rest now, it's been a long drive. My wife is already sleepy." The Valderama couple asked their maids to assist us on our room. While Camilla will sleep at his Kuya's room.

"There is a perfect room for the two of you." Malalim na boses ni Mr. Christopher Valderama ang nageecho sa hallway.

Pierre just wrapped his arms around my waist as we proceed to the room we will occupy for this mid-night sleep.

"Enjoy the night, young couples. The night is cold for a perfect cuddle." Mr. Christopher teased kaya naman pareho nalang naming idinaan sa tawa ni Pierre ang sinabi niya.

Ipinasok ng mga maid ang mga gamit namin, Pierre bought some of his stuff at the mall we just passed by earlier.

Tinulungan niya akong magbihis dahil sa may cast pa ang paa ko. But I didn't let him see my undergarments, I'm careful with it. Ayaw kong mawala ang mga espesyal na bagay saakin ng hindi pa ako naiiharap sa altar.
