SHE TAUGHT ME HOW [He Taught Me How Sequel]

Chapter 50

CHAPTER 50

He remained his eyes closed. And say a breath of prayer... na sana magising na si Kath, because he can't go another day without her...

When he opened his eyes... nagulat sya.

ANG DILIM!!

He tried to close and open his eyes, pero madilim parin. Nabulag na ba sya?

Mas nagulat naman sya when a bright spot light na parang sisirain ang mata nya ay biglang umilaw, saktong sakto sa kanya.. "Hey, yung ilaw..." kilala nya ang may ari ng boses nun, si Kats. Syempre nasa likod lang sila. Abot din sila ng lights..

As his eyes is trying to adjust with a big bright light. "Brad, ano bang meron bakit may ganit---"

Napatigil si DJ when he heard a familiar voice. A voice na he is longing for a long time...

Itong awiting ito,

Ay alay sayo,

Sintonado man 'tong

Mga pangako ko sayo

She's here!! Standing infront of him,. Holding a microphone, nakatitig sa kanya...

Ang gusto ko lamang...

Kasama kang..... Tumanda.

In a whisper, "Kath.."

Huminto si Kath sa pagkanta. At tinitigan si DJ. Ganun din ang ginawa ni DJ. Dahil ang totoo, hindi nya alam kung totoo ba ang nakikita ng mata nya.

Ilang beses na ba kasi nangyari sa kanya na makikita nya si Kath, and then poofff... everything is nothing but a daydream.

Patatawanin kita, pag di ka masaya

Bubuhatin kita pag nirayuma ka na,

Oh kay sarap isipin, kasama kang tumanda...

Pinagpatuloy ni Kath ang pagkanta. But this time, pilit nyang pinipigilan ang luha na kanina pa gustong bumuhos at pinilit na kumanta ng maayos.

She's singing with her shaking voice,. habang tahimik ang paligid. But DJ doesn't care anymore kung sino man ang nakapaligid sa kanila, kahit si Pnoy o si Obama pa ang dumating, wala syang pakialam, all he wanted to do is to look at her face.

Pansin na pansin ang pagpayat lalo ni Kath,. Pero yung ganda nya, hindi talaga nagbago,.

Habang kumakanta si Kath. Alam na ni DJ na totoong Kathryn ang nasa harap nya, at dahil gusto nyang mapatunayan, tumakbo sya para yakapin ito...

It feels like home. It was the hug that he has been longing for three months. "DJ..." yan nalang ang kaya pang sabihin ni Kath dahil iyak na sya ng iyak.

"Kath, totoo ka nga... ang tagal kong hinintay to." Mas laling humigpit ang yakap ni DJ at Kath sa isat-isa. They missed each other so much.

Maya-maya, bahagyang humiwalay si DJ. Hinawakan nya ang mukha ni Kath "...kelan ka pa... k-kelan ka pa nagising?"

"The day you left..." sagot ni Kath habang natatawa at umiiyak at the same time dahil sa nakikitang reaction from DJ.

"Ha? That long?" Gulat na tanong nyang tanong "bkit? Bakit ngayon ko lang nalaman?" Napalingon sya sa likod at nakita ang mga kaibigan. Automatic namang nag peace sign sila..

"I asked them to keep it from you... and kasalanan mo kaya..." Kath

"Ha?" Nagtaka si DJ. Kasalanan? Ang alin?

"You left me with your 149 pieces of notes. Kaya tinapos ko muna basahin." sabi ni Kath. So nabasa na pala nya? Malamang. "..and I have to surprise you kasi may mahalaga akong itatanong sayo"

"ano yun?" DJ.

"Three months ago.. hindi natuloy ang pag explore natin sa forever,.. I wanna ask you this time." Huminto ito saglit at mas lumapit kay DJ "..are still willing to know if forever really exist, are still willing to do it with me?"

Nagulat si DJ. Everything is unexpected, but in a positive way. Sobra sobra pa to sa hiniling nya. Now, di sya makapaniwala na ang babaeng pinamamahal nya at hinintay nya ay tinatanong sya ng same question na tinanong nya over a year ago.

"Hoy DJ,! Hindi ka ba sasagot" It was Kath snapping her fingers dahil natulala na si DJ. With that natauhan na sya.

Hinawakan nya ang kamay ni Kath. "I'll miss you, kiss you, give you my coat when you are cold.... need you, feed you. Even let you hold the remote control. I COULD BE THE MAN, WHO GROW OLD WITH YOU."

Hindi yun kinanta ni DJ. He recited it with eyes locked on his love.

She asked him to marry him the way he asked her before, it was indirect question, and they both answered it in an indirect YES.

Ano naman kung indirect diba? As long as they both understand that they're going to marry each other... they will be spending forever with each other.

"I love you..." Kath.

"I love you more..." DJ.

Then something happen, their DIRECT KISS sa lips. Nagpalakpakan naman ang lahat ng taong nakapaligid sa kanila, those people who have witnessed how their love has been tested, how they fell, and rise again...

...and how they almost end but now starting all over again.
