The White Demon

XXXVII

Max's POV

Ang ingay... Ang ingay-ingay....

Unti-unti at dahan-dahan kong minulat ang mga mata ko. Ano bang meron, bakit ang ingay?!

"Guys! Guuuuys! She's awake! She is awaaake!!" - is that Maribeth?! Humihiyaw sya ng pabulong. Alam nyo yun?! Hindi ko alam kung anong meron, I can't see clearly kaya pumikit nalang ulit ako.

"Sa gitna ako!" - napang-ngiti ako ng marinig ko sya, Cav, he's being arrogant again. Hehe.

"Duh! Ako sa gitna! I'm sure, ako ang gustong makita ni Max pagmulat na pagmulat nya ng mga mata nya." - guess who?! Haha. That's Nathan, I'm 100% sure

"Ngayon pa ba kayo mag-aaway?!" - she's ok, right?! Amie sounds fine. I'm relieved.

" Basta ako sa tabi ni Lucy baby my loves so sweet." - kahit nakapikit, kilalang kilala ko ang ganyang way ng pagtawag kay Lucy. Leo, what an endearment ya' have?!

"Mandiri ka nga!" - and Lucy exploded. Hahaha

"Ssshhhh!!" - narinig ko silang lahat. Sinuway siguro nila si Lucy dahil sumigaw sya using her natural tone

"Wag nga kayong maingay!" - that's Cav and Nathan. Chorus pa talaga. I'm imagining their faces right now. Ang hirap tuloy magpigil ng tawa.

I heard the door open at saka yung pagsara nito. Who entered the room?

"Woah! Tapos nyo na?! Bilis ha! Hahaha." - I knew it. He's alright, right? Mukha ok lang naman sya, si Jake.

"Quiet!" - Maribeth

"Oops! Sorry." - Jake

"Gising na ba talaga sya?" - That's Nathan sounds like confuse

"Yes. She's awake. Now you can open your eyes, sleeping beauty." - that's surprising. Hindi ko inakala na alam na ni Cav na gising na ko. How did he knew?

Dahan-dahan akong umupo without opening my eyes tsaka unti-unti kong binuksan ang mga mata ko ng nakaupo na ko ng maayos. And then ...

"WELCOME BACK, MAXINE!" - I saw angels before me. Lahat sila nakatingin sakin, lahat sila nakangiti, lahat sila....

"Masaya. Masayang masaya kami na gising ka na!" - Lucy na ngayon ay nakayakap na sakin

"Grabe! Pinag-alala mo kami ng sobraaaaa!!" - si Maribeth na nakayakap na din sakin. Nasa left side ko nakayakap si Lucy while Maribeth is at the right side.

"Naiipit sya!/ Naiipit sya! " - nagulat ako ng makitang sabay nagreact yung dalawa, Cav and Nathan, pagkatapos ay nagtitigan sila ng masama. Para silang mga bata.

"Sana yakapin din ako ni my loves ng ganyan kahigpit." - that's Leo, wishing na gawin sakanya ni Lucy to. Hahaha. Poor thing.

Napatingin ako kay Jake,

"Yo." - Jake sabay nagwink pa. Napangiti nalang ako, he's a playboy, alright!

"Ate Max.." - and this little girl caught my attention, Amie.

"I miss you." - dagdag nya pa atsaka naiyak na parang 6 y/o kid

Everyone of us look at her. She caught our attention. Silence devour us.

"I miss you too," - I responded atsaka tiningnan sila isa-isa

"I miss all of you. I'm sorry for making you worry." - dagdag ko pa and gave them a warm smile. I'm sorry..

Lahat sila ngumiti, Lucy and Maribeth cry, pati si Amie.

"G-G-Group Hug!" - sigaw ni Nathan, na, parang, naluluha?

And the they all come near me atsaka kami nag-group hug. This is the warmth that I was longing for.. This is what you called HOME.. Family... and I will become stronger. Stronger than yesterday. Stronger than anybody else. I'll protect this Home no matter what. I'll protect them all, all of them. No matter what!
