CHAPTER 64

DYLAN'S POV

"Luis! Ikaw talagang bata ka, gutom ka nanaman no?" Naagaw ni Maxine ang atensyon naming dalawa ni Luis.

Pilit na kinuha sakin ni Maxine si Luis. Inilapag na pala nito si Andrea na ngayon ay nakatitig sakin. Her eyes are much more like her mothers. Ang cute ng batang ito, para talagang little version ni Maxine.

Only that.. gone is her cheerful face, she looks weary now. Seeing her like that makes me want to carry and cuddle her. I was about to do that but she ran and hid behind her mother when she probably realized what I was about to do.

Bahagya akong nanlumo dahil sa para bang ayaw nito sakin.

"I-i am sorry. Andrea's.. she's shy. Mahiyain." Paumanhin ni Maxine.

Lie. She isn't a shy type. She probably got offended for what I did earlier sa kotse. I ignored her pleading, I spoke coldly in front of them. She might have been scared and I feel like a shit for acting that way.

"It's okay. May kwarto sa banding kanan, you could stay there. It might take us an hour to reach the island. Depende sa panahon. I will call you if we're already near. May mga pagkain sa kusina in case na magutom kayo ng mga bata. I will be on deck." Dire-diretso kong sabi sakanya.

Napagpasyahan na nila Maxine na tumungo sa kwarto. I took a deep breath before sailing. Hindi ito ang usual speed ko, it's a bit slower this time. Maaring umabot kami ng isa't kalahating oras o dalawa bago makarating sa isla.

Reason?

I just want to have them alone. Hindi man kami magusap usap, at least alam kong andito sila sa puder ko.

45 mins have passed at makakalahati pa lamang namin ang daan, I've gone slower compared kanina kaya ngayon ay sigurado akong dalawang oras ang aabutin namin sa byahe na to. I have already notified my uncle at shore and even my people at the island. I don't want them to get worried.

Nagugutom na rin ako, pero wala naman akong kasama na pwedeng magtake over dito at wala din akong dalang pagkain.

Crap. Sana kumuha ako ng pagkain sa kusina. I don't want to stop the trip too, mabagal na nga kasi ang pagpapaandar ko tapos ititigil ko pa pansamantala, baka makahalata na sila Maxine.

Speaking of Maxine, nakakain na kaya sila? I hope so, hindi pa sila nagaalmusal eh.

Bahagyang natigil ang pagiisip ko nang makarinig ako ng katok sa pinto. Who could that be?
