Between us [GL'S SERIES #2]

Chapter 24- FEEL AT EASE

Nandito kami ngayon sa bahay nila, nagaayos ako ng gamit niya habang siya ay mahimbing na natutulog sa kama. Inuwi ko na muna kasi siya at tinext ko nalang si mommy to let her know

I don't know kung saan nagpunta si elara, nung kanina kasing umiyak itong babaeng magandang natutulog sa harapan ko kanina ay wala nakong ibang maisip kung hindi pagpahingahin siya at iuwi muna siya

She was shaking, halata ang takot at pagaalala niya para sa mommy niya, and i also felt scared when the moment she sobbed hard on my chest

I want her to feel safe when i'm here beside her because thats what she do to me, gusto kong malaman niya na palagi siyang masasandalan its okay to cry until you feel okay again.. she's so fragile na parang konting hawak mo lang ay mawawasak siya ulit, naninibago ako dahil hindi naman siya ganito she's so playful but you we didn't being her a playful yet she's also weak inside when it comes to her family

I want to protect her when she's at the burst of weakness, i want to hug her until she feels okay.. i wanted to let her know i'm here beside no matter what even tho na kailangan kong pumila para mapatahan siya because everyone and everybody is willing to comfort her because many people loves her and i hope she knows that

"Aren't you going to sleep" napatingin ako sa gawi niya ng marinig ko itong magsalita

Nakapikit parin ang mata niya at dahan dahan itong nagbukas at pinukulan ako ng masuyong tingin

"Tatapusin ko lang to, go ahead magpahinga kapa" i said and smile at her, akala ko muli siyang pipikit pero umupo ito at seryoso akong tinitigan

Katahimikan ang bumalot sa buong kwarto niya pero ako ay inabala ko ang sarili sa pagtitiklop dahil hindi ko makayanan ang titig na iginagawad niya

"I'm sorry" she said and her voice is soft as cotton

Confusion written on my face as i look at her "Huh? Bakit ka nagsosorry?" I asked at tinigil ang ginagawa ko, i walked slowly towards her at yumuko sa harap niya dahil hindi siya tumitingin sakin

"It was supposedly our first date but i ditch you" nanlaki ang mata ko dahil may tumulo nanamang luha sa mata niya

"You didn't ditch me, something happened it's tita val she's more important than anything" i caress her face

Mabilis niyang pinunasan ang mga luhang nagdaloy sa pisngi niya ng balakin kong punasan iyon "its her fault, i told her to let that old guy to do what he wants. Pero ayaw niyang makinig" napayuko ako

"She really loves him" she mumbled halata ang hinanakit sa boses niya "but that guy keeps on hurting my mommy, i hate h-him" kinabig kona siya sa mga braso ko when her voice already crack

"Tahan na.. we'll be here for tita okay? Hindi natin siya iiwan.. hindi kita iiwan"  i whispered and kissed her temple

Ramdam ko ang biglang pagkalma niya kaya napanatag na ang loob ko ilang minuto pa kami sa ganoong ayos ng bigla siyang magsalita mula sa bisig ko

"Did i miss it?" She said and she sounds a kid kaya kunot noo ko siyang tinignan "our date" i chuckled

"We'll have a date again if thats what you mean" i said smiling

Agresibo niyang pinunasan ang pisngi niya at humiwalay sakin "am i ugly crying?" I stiffle my smile while shooking my head

"Still gorgeous" i said

Napapigil ako sa pagngiti when she suddenly pouts "i'm still sleepy"

"Pwede ka pa namang matulog, bukas na tayo bumalik kay tita val magpahinga ka muna" i says and tap the matress
