Chapter 13: Fly Away
(Venice's POV)
---------------- ?
Bzzztttt Bzzzzzzztttt
What? What? -___-
With eyes still closed, kinapa-kapa ko ung nightstand para hablutin ung cellphone kong malamang eh nag-aalarm na kaya ganyan na lang kung makapag-vibrate....
Where is it?!?!
Kapa-kapa uhlet--
Whoopsss! o_o
Dahil sa sobrang kaka-reach out ko for my phone, I literally rolled out of bed and bumagsak sa sabig with a BOOG!
Ako:Awww... -___-
Nahablot ko na rin sa wakas ung cellphone ko, and finally turned the alarm off.. Then, sumandal ako dun sa kama, trying to wake myself up..
"Hey.. You're still here.." :)
I turned my head and saw Jerwin peering at me from the bed.. He looks a lot better now.. Thank God..
Ako:Yea, I'm still here.. Good morning, Sunshine.. -__-
Jerwin:(smiles)Good morning.. Nice to see you're not suffocating me with a pillow this time..
He rolled over and managed to barely miss me when he swung his legs out of the bed..
Pinanood ko lang sya as he stretches for a little bit.. Energetic na si kuya uhlet.. I yawned, feeling my brain cells wake up one by one.. Yes, one by one.. ;D
Jerwin:Was that you who fell earlier?
Ako:Yea.. Di mo ba alam, the best na panggising ang mahulog sa kama..
Jerwin:So you do that everyday?
Ako:Do you think I fall off the bed every single day?!?
Jerwin:Well.. if it's you, I don't think I'd be surprised..:)
Ako:What's that supposed to mean?!??
He just laughed and picked up the basin of water dun sa stool na katabi nung nightstand.. Sumunod ako palabas nung kwarto, combing my hair with my fingers, and trying to fix myself para kung sinoh man makasalubong namen, kahit papano, mukha naman akong tao kahit bagong gising.. :D
Just before we turned to go to the kitchen, we suddenly heard two voices talking.. Napatigil kaming bigla kaseh, aside from Jerwin's mom's voice, nagulantang ako dun sa isa pang boses..
Ang nanay ko!!!
Ako:What's she doing here!??
Jerwin:My mom lives here...o_O
Ako:I don't mean your mom, I meant my mom!
Jerwin:I don't know, let's go ask.
"Ay, oo, Merryl.. Kausap ko nga si Remy kagabi.. Nasabi kong gusto ko nang bumalik ng States, at sabi naman nya, handa naman raw ung bahay na tutuluyan namen dun.."
I suddenly grabbed Jerwin, na muntik-muntikan nang matapon ung tubig na dala nya sa bigla kong paghaltak pabalik sa katawan nya..
Jerwin:What are you doing?!?
Ako:Ssshhh!
I turned my ear towards the kitchen again.. Busy na tinatago si Jerwin with me dun sa likod nung wall separating the formal dining room and the kitchen..
Tita Merryl:Aba, bakit hindi ka pa lumipad pabalik?
Mom:I would love to go back to the States..
