I'm here inside my bedroom, staring at my window and I can't stop my tears from falling on my swollen face.
Hoping everything will be alright.
I don't know pero I reached my phone and dialed his number. Gusto ko lang naman ng kausap. I can't manage this pain anymore. I need someone to hear me out. I just felt that I need him right now.
And then he answered,
"What again?! Answer me or I'll---"
"Kailangan ko ng makakausap please.." I said with my vulnerable voice. Preventing myself not to cry.
"Finally. You spe--"
I suddenly cried. Why is this happening to me?
"I'm sorry. I just really can't hold back my tears. I need someone to talk to. I hope it will be okay for you." I stated
Tinignan ko ang phone kung in-end call nya, pero hindi eh, bakit walang sumasagot?
"Hello?" Testing if someone will answer.
"Spill. Talk." His husky voice makes me chilled.
"Umm, It's about my dad. He was dead."
"Actually nakaburol siya ngayon. And I don't want to be right there."
Namatay si dad sa aksidenteng nahulog siya sa bangin dahil walang preno ang sinasakyan niyang kotse. And I said that with him. I don't know if he cares at all but at least he was listening.
Ang sarap pala sa feeling ng may nakikinig sayo. Never pa kasi ako nagkaroon ng kaibigan kaya ako ganito. Tapos mawawalan pa ako ng ama.
I mentioned that to him, word by word. And I trust him. I know I can trust him even though he is a stranger to me.
Of course, he already knew that I was making fun of him. And now, I'm planning to tell him my real name in order to trust me too. Maybe it's time for us to get to know each other, right?
"By the way, I'm Charmaine, Charmaine Garcia. May I know yours?"
I'm waiting for him to speak. And I don't know why I felt something weird..
He replied, "I'm Christopher."
Then he ended the call.
