Reminiscence

Kyra's POV

I started coughing up water and feel the oxygen filling my lungs again. Tumambad sa akin ang nag-aalalang mukha ni Hunter na nakaluhod sa tabi ko.

He looked relieved, his facial features relaxing as we stare at each other. His eyes held worries in them just the way I remember him.

"Kyra!! You scared the shit out of me." He exclaimed hugging my wet body tightly.

"I'm sorry."

"I thought I was going to lose you." His voice crack as he fight the tears attempting to flow from his eyes.

"Ayos na ako. You saved me." I tried to ease him.

"What if... what if I was too late like the last time. You could have drowned."

I saw disappointment and hurt from his eyes. Not towards me but to himself. He's still blaming himself from the last time I almost died.

I never blamed him. I am grateful to him. I remember it all now. How he leads the pack warriors into defeating the rogues. He sacrificed a lot to save me.

"But I didn't. You saved me before it will happen. Thank you." I looked ay him longingly, running my palm into his worried face.

"Hindi ko alam ang gagawin ko kapag nawala ka ulit sa akin. It will drive me insane."

"Hindi na ako mawawala Hunter. I promised." Tumingin ako sa mga mata niya, sa mga labi niya sa buong mukha niya. I remember him now. I remember all those kisses and the conatant growling whenever he's jealous. "I miss you."

"I love you." Sagot nito at binuhat ako papasok ng pack house patungong kwarto.

Buong araw ay hindi umalis sa tabi ko si Hunter. Sumusunod lang siya sa akin kung saan man ako magpunta. Pati nga siguro sa banyo ay susundan niya ako kung hindi ko lang siya sinita. He's asking me every minute if I'm fine, do I need anything or if Im hungry, if I am tired and so on. He's been following me around like I'm going to disappear any moment.

"Seriously Hunter, I'm fine. Ito na ang pang sampung tinanong mo ako kung okay lang ako." Sagot ko sa kanya habang nanunuod ng tv sa sala.

"I just want to make sure. Sa tingin ko kasi kailangan mong magpahinga. You almost drowned this morning." He reasoned.

"Alam mo Hunter, why don't you go to the pack gym, patrol the borders or train the warriors? I promise I am fine. Stop worrying about me. I don't want to stop your daily activities. I think you have another meeting from the neighboring pack. Ayokong hindi ka pumunta ng dahil lang sa akin."

"Are you sure?" He asked hesitantly.

"Definitely. Sige na, may isang oras pa bago mag-umpisa ang meeting niyo. Babyahe pa naman kayo. Go." I gave him a reassuring smile.

He gave me one last kiss in the cheek before walking his way to the garage and into his fancy car.

Nang masigurado kong naka-alis na siya, agad kong tinawagan si Anika.

"Yes besty?" Bati nito.

"I need your help."

"Okay. I'll be there in five minutes."

Pagkatapos ng limang minuto ay dumating na si Anika gamit ang bike nito. Buti nalang at hindi nito naisipang magmaneho ulit. Naalala kong hindi talaga siya marunong magmaneho.

Agad ko siyang hinila sa kwarto namin ni Hunter at pina-upo sa kama.

"I remember everything." I blurted out.
