VII: BEYOND THE STARS

This kind of life is the life that we're wanting since that day happened. Yung buhay na malayo sa maraming tao. Walang usok, walang traffic, hindi maingay, at kung may tao man, masasaya ang mga tao.

Masaya naman kami sa household namin, though iba lang sa feeling yung ganito. Yung secure ka sa paligid. Peaceful yet beautiful.

Sometimes I thought na mas maganda yung simpling buhay lang. Away from city. Mas nae enjoy mo kasi yung scenery na nakapalibot sayo. Less population, less stress.

I shivered when a cold breeze envelope me. Pero hindi rin naman nag tagal dahil biglang may bumalot na jacket sa balikat ko. Nag angat ako ng tingin at sumabong sa akin ang mukha ni jovanne.

So. He's still awake? I hope he didn't catch me looking into him earlier while he's sleeping.

"What are you doing here all alone? Tapos gabi pa. It's dangerous." He sat down Infront of me and placed the guitar.

Hindi ko pa mapapansin na may dala pala siyang gitara kung hindi niya nilapag sa gilid nang upuan niya.

I looked away when he caught me staring at him. Nakakahiya. Nahuli niya ako. But before I looked away, I saw his cheeks turned red.

I hummed. "I can't sleep. Namamahay yata ako."

"You should have told me." He said.

"Why?" I confusedly asked.

I mean, why would I tell him?

"So that I can accompany you here. It's so lonely to be alone, you know."

I shrugged and smiled at him, that made his cheeks burned red, again for I don't know how many times.

"It's fine. I found peace whenever I'm alone. And it's kinda relaxing."

Napalingon ako dito ng bigla itong tumayo. "What are you doing?"

"Aalis. You said na you found peace and relaxing when you're alone. So I guess ayaw mo'ng nandito ako. I'm sorry if I'm disturbing and ruining your moment." He sincerely apologize before he passed through me.

But before he could walk farther, I hurriedly grab his hand. I don't know what got into me, basta bigla ko nalang hinawakan ang kamay niya to stop him.

Maybe I don't want to be alone anymore?

I don't know.

I smiled with his trouble look at hinatak siya pabalik sa kinauupuan niya kanina.

"I'm okay. It's fine if you stay here. Your company somewhat feel me okay." He nodded and look up at the sky that I'm watching earlier.

"It's so beautiful right?" I asked him still looking at the sea of sparkling stars.

"It is." He answered.

Lumingon ako dito only to find out na hindi naman pala siya sa mga bituin naka tingin kundi sa akin mismo.

"What?" I asked.
