Bumitaw ako sa kanya and napatingin ako sa kanya. Halatang nagulat siya but she was smiling still. Traces of her tears are still apparent on her face.
"Does this mean na tayo na ulit?"tanong ko sa kanya.
"Anong tayo na ulit?"sabi niya.
"Nakakainis naman to eh."sabi ko sa kanya tapos hinampas ko siya.
"Well in my defense, at least in my head we didn't break up."sabi niya. I hugged her. Parang ayaw ko nang bumitaw sa mga yakap niya. I missed Agnes so much and I am scared na if I let go today, I might actually lose her. Pero when I glanced at her, nakita ko how tired her eyes looked.
"Well let's get some rest wifey. You look like you're drunk and you look like you need rest."sabi ko. She was already looking very flushed from the beer. Mukhang nakarami na siya tonight.
"Yeah I think we both need to rest kasi marami tayong kailangang i-explain tomorrow."sagot niya. I nodded. Alam kong kailangan kong mag-explain sa parents ko na nagkasundo na ulit kami ni Agnes. And I need to talk to Tita Cy din.
"Don't worry, I will explain to tita Cy and I also want to apologize for hurting you. Ang funny 'no? The last thing I wanted was to hurt you but that's exactly what I did. I'm sorry wifey."sagot ko sa kanya.
"Wifey parte naman talaga ng pagmamahal ang masaktan. But I'm happy you came around."sabi niya then she smiled at me.
Pag gising ko nung umaga, ramdam na ramdam ko na my eyes were puffed. I had one of my ears pressed on one of Agnes's arms habang nakayakap naman sa 'kin yung isa pa. I felt Agnes's lips slightly touching my forehead. I tried to move slowly para hindi ko magising si Agnes. She was still soundly sleeping but her eyes were puffed too. Simula nung sinabi ko sa kanyang hindi ko siya mahal, I haven't really slept and gabi-gabi rin akong nakakatulog na umiiyak. And when Agnes and I went to bed last night, I finally had the chance to sleep peacefully.
Actually, magkaiba kami ng kwarto ni Agnes. But I didn't want to let her get out of my sight kaya sabi ko sa kanya sasama na lang ako sa kwarto niya. Hindi naman siya tumanggi. I missed having to cuddle with her and today, I get to listen to her heartbeat again. I missed this.
I was just looking at Agnes when she finally stirred. When she woke up, she gave me a toothless grin then she planted another kiss on my forehead.
"Why are you looking at me like that wifey?"sabi niya.
"I'm just making sure I'm not dreaming."
"You are."sabi niya. "Nasa'yo na ako eh, alam ko namang ako lang pangarap mo." I rolled my eyes.
"Ang aga pa Agnes para sa pagiging conceited mo. Susko." She chuckled.
"Well, I missed waking up in the morning beside you."sabi niya. "And I missed annoying you too."
"Hay nako."sabi ko sa kanya. She just chuckled again then gave me another kiss on the forehead before she stood up para mag-ayos na.
Pagbaba namin, andun na sila Jam sa baba at kumakain na ng breakfast. Habang pababa kami, bigla akong nakaramdam ng kaba nung naalala ko na kailangan ko palang mag-explain sa mama ni Agnes.
"Good morning fam."sabi ni Agnes pag baba namin at umupo na siya.
"Aba mukhang may nagkaayos na kagabi ah."sabi ni Toni.
"May lasing kamo kagabi."sabi ni Jam kaya natawa kami.
"Uy di ako lasing ah."sabi ni Agnes.
"Nagkaayos nga ba kayo? Look at Pat's eyes, parang lalo nang nawala."sabi ni Poch. "Can you still see us?"
