Kinabukasan...

Nia's POV

Pumunta kami ni Daryl sa kwarto ni Drake. Yes. Nakalabas na si Drake ng ICU. His recovery is faster than I expected. Sa mga case kasi na katulad nung sa kanya, mga nag aagaw buhay na o hindi kaya dead on the spot.

Tumingin ako sa harap ko at nakita ang lalaking nag ce-cellphone habang tinutulak ko yung wheel chair nya.

How I love this man. Nagtataka nga ako minsan, how come na eto pang nilalang na 'to ang minahal ko?

Umiling na lang ako at tsaka tumingin sa dinaraanan. Malapit na yung room ni Drake.

Tumigil kami sa kwarto nya at kumatok ako. Pinapasok kami ni Van at lumabas na rin sya.

"Drake..." Tawag ko at duon sya lumingon at ngumiti.

"Hey, Nia, Lil' bro." Bungad nya saamin. Nagtataka ako, paano pa nakuhang ngumiti neto sa lahat ng nangyari?

"How are you still alive? I mean... we saw you..." Pinutol nya yung sinasabi ko...Kaines!

"I was alive, it was a miracle...the day I 'died' I really died and when I was at the hospital, bigla na lang bumalik yung heartbeats ko. Then, sinabi nila to kay Mom and Dad, of course they were glad, they were about to tell Shaine and Daryl, but I stopped them, I want them to hide me from everybody else. Gusto kong mabuhay kayo ng masaya at alam ko na, Nia, you deserve much better than me. At who would've thought na kapatid ko pala yun. Haha" Kwento nya.

"Kaya pala naka sarado yung kabaong mo nung burol mo." Sabi ni Daryl. Yeah, sarado ang kabaong noon.

"Can you forgive me?" Tanong nya. Nag puppy eyes pa ang gago, and I realized, malaki pala ang pagkakaiba nilang dalawa ni Daryl, except for the eyes. Yung features ng mukha ni Drake ay galing kay Auntie Daniella. Yung kay Daryl ay kay Uncle Van.

Nagkatinginan kami ni Daryl at ngumiti sa isa't isa tsaka namin hinarap si Drake.

"Of course." Sabi namin.

"I just wanna say Drake, before we go out, thank you for being with me, thank you for the times we spent together. Let's be friends." Sabi ko at ngumiti sya.

"Sure." Sabi nya.

Bigla na nalang bumukas yung pinto at napatingin ako sa babaeng pumasok.

"Oh, Hi, I'm Wesley." Sabi nung girl at ngumiti.

"Oh! Nia, Daryl, meet Wesley, my girlfriend." Sabi ni Drake at lumapit si Wesley kay Drake at umupo sa kama.

"Nice to meet you Nia. I heard alot of things about you. Can we be friends?" Tanong ni Wesley saakin habang nag reach out ng kamay for shake hands. Ngumiti ako, I reached my hand out and said...

"Of course, I don't see why not...Just ask me anything, and reach out to me if ever he hurts you." Sabi ko at tinuro si Drake.

"You're nice." Ani Wesley and she giggled. She's so pretty! Kaines!

"We better get going now. And...Wesley, you are lucky with Drake. Good luck, have a nice day." Sabi ko at nag wave naman si Daryl.

Lumabas na kami at dumeretso sa kwarto ni Daryl.

"Thank you Nia, naging pabigat tuloy ako sayo." Sabi nya habang tinutulungan ko syang maka upo sa kama. 

"No biggie, and besides, never kong inisip na pabigat ka." Sabi ko at inayos yung kumot nya.

Hinila nya yung kamay ko at hinalikan yung noo ko. I blushed.

"Thank you very much wife. I love you." Sabi nya at pinag dikit yung noo namin.
