Madison's POV

As I gain back my consciousness, I slowly open my eyes. I blink twice to adjust my vision. Then,I was welcomed by a white ceiling and the smell of something like medicine.

I am in the hospital.

Sinuyod ko lahat ng parte ng kwarto. My family and friends were here, they sleeping soundly.

I felt a warm feeling enveloping my right hand kaya tinignan ko iyon kung ano. Doon ko nakita si Jon na nakayuko at tulog sa gilid ng kamang kinahihigaan ko.

I brush his hair, using my left hand, smoothly savoring the feeling that he's here.

After a while he catches my hand and lift up his head to see me staring at him. Nginitian ko siya at akmang aalisin ko ang aking kamay sa kaniyang pagkakahawak ng pigilan niya ito.

"You're awake" masayang sabi niya. Medyo napalakas ang pagkakasabi niya kaya naman nagising ang iba.

"Maddy!" Si mommy. Na agad akong yinakap at pinaghahalikan ako sa buong mukha.

"Aww" daing ko ng masagi niya ang pasa ko sa balikat.

"Oh no, I'm sorry sweetie"  they help me to sit.

"Its okay, mom. Wag lang masyadong madiin ang pagyakap" nakangiting sabi ko.

"You scared us there, kiddo" my dad said not very happy.

"Nangyari na dad and look I'm still alive" sabi ko naman.

"Stubborn" he said then hug me. I know he is just worried.

"Where is Keith?" I ask.

"With your aunt, nakatulog na kakahintay sayo magising" nakangiting sabi ni mommy. I smile back.

I look at my friends. My girl friends have the same looks. They have puffy eyes too.

"Miss me?" I ask them.

"Fuck you!" They said in unison. I just laugh at them. I just say thank you to the boys for their help.

They are talking and telling me about what happened last night when I look back at Jon, he still holding my hand.  I think it's time that I would talk to him. So, I cleared my throat to get my parents and friends attention.

"Can I talk to Jon? Privately?" I ask them. I saw his eyes lit.

"Okay, we'll be outside if you two need anything" my mom said with an understanding look on her eyes.

"Jon-" di pa man natatapos sa sasabihin ay inunahan na niya ako.

"I'm sorry" he said then suddenly a tear drop from his eyes. "Sorry sa lahat ng nasabi ko, I know it's not that enough but I would said it anyway."

"Totoong mahal kita, Maddy. I've lost my love before and i don't want to lose you too."

" Nadala ako ng galit ko at paghihigante. Ni hindi kita pinakinggan. I'm sorry."

"Jon, you don't have too. Kasalanan ko rin dahil naging selfish ako. Kaysa sabihin ko sayo ang totoo binaliwala ko lang at kinalimutan. Natakot akong kamuhian mo ako." Nag-uunahan ang mga luha ko sa pagpatak. Nanaiintindihan ko lahat, di ko lang mapigilan noon masaktan.

"Gusto ko sabihin sayo lahat ng alam ko, yun ang una kong plano pero natatakot ako para sa buhay ko so I  started to get close to you. Di ko naman inakalang darating tayo sa puntong makakaramdam ako ng ganito para sayo. Ayokong maging ahas, Ash is my friend and a sister and then I've fallen in love to the man she loves, that's not right. I felt bad about it. Mahal kita pero ayokong may masaktan kapag pinili ko ang kaligayahan ko, kapag pinili kong maging akin ka"

"Pwede pa naman tayo magsimula ulit, diba? I want you to feel my love." Tanong niya. "Mahal rin naman kita , Maddy. Please give me a chance"My heart swell to what he confessed. He loves me too.

I want to say YES, badly. Does he even listening to what i have said?

Ash would get hurt if she finds out.

I don't want to hurt my friend, my sister.

I shake my head.

"No, I don't want to hurt her"  as I said that someone open the door and came inside.

"Oh no, you won't"

Its Ashley

"Girl! Wag ka nga! Kaibigan ko kayong dalawa and I love the both of you. Maybe destiny itself wants to tell us that we're not meant to be" she smiled at me with so much love " believe me cause I am also in love with someone else" she said while a tint of red flush to her cheeks."I think it's only platonic what Jon and I have before."

My jaw dropped.

"You kidding?" I said

I have a feeling that I know who is the guy.

"Nope" she answered.

"Si Eros ba?" Tanong ko. She nod.

F*ck!

Tama ang hinala ko!

"Actually, may pupuntahan pa kami kaya...bye!" Sabi niya saka nagmamadaling lumabas.

I'm still shock, unable to utter nor to look at Jon.

"So, ?" Pagsisimula niya.

Tinignan ko siya.

"Anong so?" Nakakunot noong tanong ko sa kaniya. He chuckled.

"Can you give US a chance?" Referring to me and to himself.

I stare at him a few moments.

"Ahmm, Maddy?..." He ask nervously. I just continue to look at him."come on, Maddy please. You're making me nervous ". He's really telling the truth, I want to laugh actually because of his facial expression. Parang kasi siyang naiihi na ewan.

"" Maddy! " he shouted.

"Sinisigawan mo ba ako?" My brow raised at him.

"Hindi ah!" He shouted again and shake his head.

"Oh ayan sinisigawan mo na naman ako!" I crossed my arms above my chest while glaring at him. His face soften as he look at me."what-"

*tsup

My eyes widen to what he have done.

He move a little away from me but still cupping my face. He stared and smiled at me.

"What the-"

*tsup
*tsup
*tsup
*tsup
*tsup

"I love you" malambing niyang sabi.

F*ck! How could I resist him if he keep on doing this to me.

Marupok din po ako.

Hayy naku...
