“uyy Rhian.. madulas ka---“
“aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!! *toink* aray!!!”
Hindi ko na natapos ang sasabihin ko.. inunahan na niya ii..
“Rhian! Okay ka lang?”
Inabot ko ang kamay ko para tulungan siya makatayo

Hala! Tawa siya..
“ahahahahahahaha!!”

“tumugil ka nga kakatawa mo jan! tumayo ka na..”
“owh-kay….^___^”

“uy Rhian! Anong ginagawa mo?”
“*hands on waist* di obvious?? Binibilang ko yung steps!!”

“teka… nasan na ba ako?? Ammmm.. 52…53…54…”
Hahahaha.. sa natatandaan ko nasa mga 40’s pa siya kanina..

Umupo si Kuya Jeric sa tabi ko
“aa.. ha??”
“sussss!! Kunyari ka pa jan.. ii kitang-kita naman na gusto mo si Rhian..”
I just looked at him.. napaka-ipokrito ko naman kung sasabihin kong hindi diba??
“so.. anong plano mo??”
“plano??”
“tsk! ang hina mo talaga bunso.. ibig mo sabihin wala ka pang balak?? Ikaw din.. baka maunahan ka ng iba jan..”
Sabay tingin kay Bryan na kasayaw ni Rhian.
*sigh* ou nga... kailangan ko ng kumilos.. matagal na panahon ko ding pinigilan ang sarili ko..at ngayong pwede na.. I’ll do everything just to win her..
*END OF FLASHBACK*
“anong wish mo?”
I said after tossing a coin to the well
“hmmmm.. everyday happiness..^__^ ikaw?? Anong wish mo??”
Dug.dug

She snapped!! God, hindi ko namalayan nag pace out pala ako..
“haaa…aaa..”
Rhian’s POV
“haaa…aaa..”
Without notice ay hinawakan niya ang kamay ko..
Waaaaaaaaaaaa!!! I can hear my heartbeat…
He looked at me straight in the eye without any words from his mouth.. he just…
Stared at me.. I can’t read him.. the twinkle in his eyes were so mysterious..
“ang wish ko…*sigh* my wish is….”
Oh my! Oh my!! Biglang nanlamig ang mga kamay ko..
“sana..mahalin mo din ako…kasi ako….”
Oh no!! please Ric.. don’t say it.. please don’t..
“mahal kita..*sigh*”
“h-ha?”
The only word that came out from my mouth
“I said I love you Rhian!!”
Those words reverberated on my mind.. his eyes were pleading.. asking me to say I love you too.. Ric…
why??
At that moment.. I didn’t know what to say..rather what to do.. I was blank..
Suddenly, there’s pain in my chest.. God! Not now..
I tried hard not to let him see any sign that I was having difficulty in breathing.. I looked around trying search help.. and my prayer was answered.. I saw Bryan and Diane..
“Ric…*sniff* I’m sorry…..”
Binawi ko ang kamay ko at tumakbo papunta kina Bryan..
xxxx oh my! oh my! bakit?? bakit?? Rhian bakit??? xxxx
