Note: this is a raw chapter. I haven't edit it so u may encounter grammatical errors. Also I honestly forgot to update yesterday because of something and I'm sorry for that and sorry for my slow updates. Once the semester ends I'll focus on writing again, to finish this book. Anyway, here's the next chapter. Enjoy reading!

"Ansakit!" sapo ko sa aking ulo dahil sa pagkabagsak.

"Are you okay?" tumingin ako sa kamay na nasa aking harapan. Ini-angat ko ang ulo upang tingnan kung kanino ito galing. It was Rei.

Tumango ako kasabay ang pag-abot nito. "Ayos lang naman ako. Nasaan sila?"

"Tch. We're here." napahinga ako ng maluwag nang marinig ang masungit na boses ni Eri.

"Na-miss kita Raishaaa!" Napatalon ako sa gulat dahil may biglang yumakap sa akin mula sa gilid.

Sasabog na ata ako sa galit dahil sa paraan ng pagyakap nito. Sino pa ba? Tsk.
His both legs are hugging my waist and his both arms are clinging on my neck. He's like a koala!

What makes me even more mad is his face! Nakasiksik ito sa leeg ko na parang linta!

"What the...get off me!" I exclaimed while pushing him. Hinanap ng mata ko si Eri at Rei pero hindi ko na sila makita. I creased my forehead. Where are they?

"Nasaan na sil—" I was cut off because he did an unexpected thing. He suddenly licked the side of my neck. Saglit akong natigilan. Nang makabawi ay agad ko siyang tinulak at tinakpan ang leeg gamit ang kamay.

"B-Bastos!" nauutal kong sigaw sakanya.

I was going to yell at him again when I saw his face. He's staring at me intently. He's showing a lot of emotion that I don't understand but I can clearly see that he's glad and worried.

Naglakad ito ng mabilis papunta sa akin, kasabay ang paghila nito ng aking kamay ay ang pagbalot sa akin ng mainit at mahigpit niyang yakap.

I'm too preoccupied to what he did that I can't even speak. His embrace is giving me a feeling.

"I'm glad you're okay," he whispered. I don't know what to say.

"I'm really glad..." ilang sandali pa ay bumitaw ito at nauna ng umalis. While I'm still stunned here with my heart beating fastly. For a moment he's not the usual he. It's like he's a different person. But the way he hugged me, his expression turned into concern, there's no doubt I feel something for him. I hope this is only affection.

Nang makabawi ay agad akong tumakbo upang sundan ito. Tsaka ko lang nakita si Eri na nakasimangot sa amin at si Rei na nakatalikod.

"Saan kayo galing?" Iritadong tanong ni Eri.

"Raisha lost her way, I lend her a hand." Nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi ni K. Bakit mukhang kasalanan ko pa? Siya kaya ang humila sa akin.

But if I tell the truth it will be awkward. Kaya wala akong nagawa kundi ang mag-sorry kay Eri.

I went to Rei to ask if he's okay. Ang tahimik niya kasi.

"Hey, you okay?" I asked. Lumingon ito sa akin at ngumiti. "I'm fine, how about you? I bet you've been through a lot. Sorry we're late,"

"Okay lang ano ka ba, sino ba naman ako para puntahan kaagad diba?" I said with a teasing voice.

His expression changed suddenly so I bursted into laughing. He's cute. Lol.

"Charot lang eto naman hindi mabiro," when I said that his expression softened. He's really a boy that will take your words seriously. I mean whenever he thinks he did wrong or something to anyone he will be really concerned. I don't know it's just, attractive I guess?
