Captured By Heart

Chapter 12

Pagkagising ko agad kung naramdan ang epekto ng mga ininom ko kagabi, my head is aching but its bearable tough.

"Goodmorning ate jessica." i greeted her when i saw her at the kitchen, obviously preparing for our breakfast.

Ang aga kung nagising maybe because i had a good sleep because of someone... Hmm

"Goodmorning, oh inom ka muna ng tubig." she gave me a glass of water.

I sat on the high chair and drink the water before asking her where's mamita and papa.

"Uh my head is aching, by the way where's mamita and papa. ate jess?"

"Inomin mo to. Pain reliever yan."

Napabaling ako sa likod ng makita ko si mamita.

"Goodmorning hija, hang over again?" she kiss my cheeks.

"Uh yeah but its fine mamita. Goodmorning, where's papa?"

"He's at veranda. sinong nag hatid sayo kagabi?"

"Oh ah, si caius mamita." i looked away. feel a little bit shy.

"That son of mr. jauncey?"

"Yung gwapo ba sa hospital, alaia?" tanong ni ate jessica habang hinahanda ang mga utensils sa long table.

"Uh yeah."

"Is he courting you?" mamita asked.

"Baka boyfriend na madam" ate jessica

"No. of course not. and he's not courting me mamita, he's uh.. well, my friend?" not sure to my answer. i don't want to assume things here.

"Parang hindi naman kaibigan ang turing nun sayo, alaia. iba yung tingin niya sayo nung nasa hospital tayo eh. diba madam?" ate jessica insist.

"What do you think hija?"

I bit my lower lip. "Uh.. Ahm.. well, we text and chat that's all."

Pagkasabi ko nun tumunog bigla ang cellphone kung nakalagay sa high table.

Napatingin kami don ni mamita. Kinuha ko naman at binasa yon.

Napakagat ako ng labi't napangiti.

From Caius James :
Hey goodmorning pretty, are you awake?

"It was a long time ago, since the last time i saw you smiling like that hija."

Napaangat ako ng tingin kay mamita, saglit kung nakalimotan na andyan sila ni ate jessica.

"Mamita ngumingiti naman ako palagi ha." nakangiti ko pang sabi.

"Yeah, but not like how you smile now."

"May halong kilig na ngiti, ganon ang ibig sabihin ni madam, alais."

"Anong kilig kilig yan, sinong kinikilig?"

Napatingin kami kay papa.

"Naku sir, ang apo niyo po nagdadalaga na! May pumuporma na."

Nilakihan ko naman ng mata si ate jessica, not that i'm scared with papa. He's not the type of strict lolo. I shared a lot of things to them even about my love life, that's how are we close.

Hindi lang ako makapaniwalamg simabi ni ate jessica na pumuporma si caius, kasi mukhang wala pa naman kami sa ganon. At wala naman sinasabi yon.

"Really, then who's the guy? why can't he introduce his self to us? did you already meet that guy constantina?"

"Oo sa sacarias, sinamahan niya si alaia sa hospital last week nung dinala ako don."

"I want to meet him alaia, bring him here and what's his name?"
