Once Upon a Dream

Chapter Six

Keira's POV

Aray ko! Ang sakit ng katawan ko!
Katatapos ko lang na magligpit ng mga damit ko sa walk-in closet namin kaya nag decide na kong matutulog na ko. Pero nauuhaw ako eh kaya kukuha muna ako ng maiinom sa kitchen.

"I love you too," I heard someone saying. I look around and found Zeth putting down his phone. Maybe tinawagan sya ng girlfriend nya.

I can feel he's a little bit stressed as he lay down to sofa again. Tsk. Tsk. Kawawang bata naman to.

I continue walking to the kitchen and get the milk from the fridge. Ang galing ng mga magulang namin noh. Hindi lang fully furnished tong condo kundi full of groceries din. Ang saya di ba? Wala na kaming mga kailangan pang bilhin.

I check my phone as I was drinking my milk. 1 message from unknown number?

From: 09*********

Hey, Keira. This is Nathan. I just want you to know that we will be at your house by tomorrow. Nasabi na rin namin kay Zeth na pupunta kami. Magluto ka ng masarap ah. :* :)

I smile before I send him a message.

To: 09*********

Sige. Anong oras ba kayo pupunta?

I send the message to him. Wala pa sigurong three minutes ay may na receive na agad akong reply galing kay Nathan.

From: 09*********

Siguro mga after lunch. Don't worry magdadala kami ng mga drinks. :)

---------------------
To: 09*********

Ok. Thanks. We'll be waiting for you tomorrow. :)

I save his number and text my bestfriend Tori to come over by tomorrow. Buti na lang at pumayag sya. Well, iba pa rin kapag kasama mo yung bestfriend mo kahit may nakilala ka ng new friends. Right? Right?

Binalik ko na yung milk sa refrigerator at hinugasan ang baso then saka bumalik sa kwarto. I walk straight to the bed and went beneath the covers.

Hay salamat. RIP na. Relaxation in peace. Good night, Philippines. Good night, world.
---------------------------------------------------

I was sleeping peacefully when I suddenly felt something fell on my waist that made me awake.

Idinilat yung mata ko at tinignan kung ano nalaglag. Hmmm. It looks like a kamay. I lift it up to ensure that this arms came from an alive person. Mahirap na baka mamaya may zombie na kumakain pala nito at naiwan ang arm na to.

I lift it up and turn around. WHAT THE HELL! WHAT IS HE DOING IN MY BED?!

Gumalaw sya nung tinabi ko yung braso nya so I just pretended to be sleeping. I open my eyes when I feel he stops moving.

"AAAAHHHH!" sa sobrang pagkabigla ko ay naitulak ko sya sa kama.

"WHAT THE FUCK?! WHY DID YOU DO THAT?!" Zeth angrily asked me. Sino bang hindi magagalit sa ginawa ko? Ikaw kayang tulakin sa kama una mukha?

"Y-y-y- your FACE! Your face was just an inch to mine!" pasigaw kong sabi sa kanya. Bakit ako matatakot sa kanya? Eh kasalanan naman nya kung bakit ko sya nalaglag sa kama.

"I AM SLEEPING!" he yell frustratedly saka naupo sa gilid ng kama.

"Bakit ka ba kasi dito natutulog sa kwarto?"

"Where do you expect me sleep? To sofa?"

"Yeah. I assumed you want to sleep there," totoo naman eh. Kanina pa sya tulog ng tulog sa may sofa tapos ngayon matutulog sya dito sa kwarto.
