Ysabelle's POV

"Nickos!" I cried, daig ko pa ang nabaril, dam*n! Bakit pa ganito humantong ang lahat? I thought everything was over...Nickos groaned out in pain, agad akong napa-upo sa sahig at sinalo siya.

"N-nickos! Ayos ka lang ba?!" Nanginginig ang mga kamay ko.

I looked at him and he smiled at me weakly.

"Anya--"

"Saan ang sugat mo?"

"Look, Ysa--"

"T-tatawag tayo ng tulong ok?"

"Ysabelle."

The finality in his words made me cracked out, he held both of my cheeks tight and I buried my eyes together with his chocolate ones. The assurance in his eyes made me chill out a bit.

Nandoon siya sa mga panahong walang wala ako. No, I said to myself, hindi lang ito isang utang na loob ang nararamdaman ko sa kanya. Nickos became a part of my existence more than just a some childhood friend I had.

"I'm ok, sa balikat lang naman ako tinamaan, besides magkakaroon ng world war 4 ang mga babae sa mundo pagnawala ako."

Bigla tumigil ang luha kong babagsak sana, sinamaan ko siya ng tingin, may gana pa siyang magjoke?! Eh kulang na lang himatayin ako sa takot. Di ko napigilang hampasin siya sa inis, dali naman itong napahiyaw dahil natamaan ko pala ang sugat niya sa braso.

And then he caresses my cheeks gently as he softened his gaze, inalalayan ko siyang isandig sa pader

"But really, I'm glad your safe, alam mo bang ang dami mong pinag-alala?"

I snorted and shook my head, madami akong pinag-alala? Si lola  lang ata ang mag-alala sa akin.

He pinched my cheek in response that made me wince in pain a little.

"Silly, who said na ang mga kadugo mo lang ang pwedeng mag-alala sayo? You had the handsome me, Marie, Anthon, count Luis in and..." He pointed his chin in a direction behind my back, and I turned my head and I saw him.

May pag-aalinlangan siyang lumapit sa amin, tumayo ako at hinarap siya


"Belle."

"J-julian."


I almost lost my breath in the process, nang napatingin ako sa mga mata niya, pakiramdam ko may humaplos sa puso ko, now

I know whose child that I dream of earlier.

Dahan dahan akong lumapit sa kanya.

"I s-saw him.." I smiled at him a little, I was restraining myself not to parade in tears. "He entered in my dream, k-kahit ilang s-sandali lang iyon..I.. I'm very sure he had your eyes."

He was stunned, and when he scrubbed the back of his wounded neck and looked away, I bit my lips and looked down at my feet, away from his pained eyes, dahil kung hindi, baka uunahan ko siya sa pag-iyak.

"H..h-him huh? S-so it was a boy?..a s-son."

He was far from the confident and cold man I used to know, the man standing before me was broken and I nodded in response of his hoarse voice.

And when our eyes locked on each other again, in that moment I'm very sure we shared our pain, not as individuals but as parents who lost their child. The moment that child smile at me, napatawad ko na si Julian sa lahat.






"Hoi respeto naman dyan."  Putol ni Nick sa amin. ''Puso at sugat ko masakit oh? Baka naman pwede ninyo akong tulungan, I'm bleeding to death!''

Napatawa at napa iling na lang kami ni Julian, nagputol kami ng damit para itali ng mahigpit sa sugat ni Nick para matigil ng kaunti ang pagdurugo. Habang inaalalayan ko itong itayo nagulat ako sa sinabi ni Julian
