Ruben's PoV

Nakatingin lang ako kay Emy habang payapa siyang natutulog hawak ang kamay ko. I fixed the hair that went on her face as well.

Looking at her, I can't imagine everything she went through for the past months. Pero hindi ko rin akalain na kaya niyang pagdaanan yun lahat para sakin. I mean, I knew her na sobrang taray, at sobrang reserved, palaban sa academics, I thought that fighting spirit she has ehh dahil sa kurso niya pero nagkamali ako.

She's more than that. At sobrang saya ko to know she loves me more than I do. I promise you Emy, kasama mo na ko simula ngayon.

I pulled her hand up and kissed it. Sana lang talaga gumaling na si Emy. I have to make her healthy, I think it's my responsibility since ako dahilan ng pagkakaganito niya.

Emerald's PoV

Paggising ko si Ruben agad ang hinanap ng mata ko pero wala na siya sa tabi ko

"Ruben?" Tawag ko sabay tayo sa pagkakahiga ko, medyo okay na ko kumpara kaninang umaga.

"Banyo po!"

Napanatag naman ako nang marinig ko boses niya, maya maya lumabas din siya agad at dumirecho sakin

"Anything you need? Kamusta tulog mo? Pakiramdam mo?"

I didn't speak instead I pulled him near to hug him.

"Emy?"

Hindi ako nagsalita, yumakap lang ako sa kanya and I felt him hug me back after some time.

"You sure you're okay?"

I just nodded at him habang nakayakap pa rin sa kanya

"I won't lose you now right? M-makakasama na naman kita lagi di ba? Ruben?" Sabi ko not looking at him and still hugging him

"Emy... of course. Don't think too much okay? Di ako aalis sa tabi mo. I promise you that." Sabi niya sabay hagod sa likod ko.

Humiwalay na ko sa kanya pagkatapos din ng ilang sandali. I just wanted to feel him near me, yun lang. i felt like hugging him gives me the comfort I needed. Napapanatag ako.

He held my hand and spoke up afterwards.

"Did you dream about something? Huh?"

"No... hindi ko alam pero natakot ako nung wala ka dito kanina. Maybe I somehow thought that it was a dream, na hindi ka talaga pumunta dito ganun"

"Emy... totoo to okay? I'm here, and I'm not gonna leave you from now on. Pagpapagaling ang isipin mo, ha?"

I nodded and he approached me and kissed my forehead, I took that as a chance to hug him again.

"I didn't know you could be this clingy Emy haha"

"Bawal ba?"

"Of course not. My heart is actually happy. Be clingy with me, i love it"

"I love you..."

"I love you too. Wait lang ah? Tatawagan ko lang si Mikko"

"Why?"

"May iuusap lang for school"

"Ahh okay"
