Chapter Thirty Two

The door opened but I ignore it. I couldn't sleep so I just stared at the ceiling and wishing that this is just a dream but not. I blinked and still reality hits me that I am inside my bedroom in our mansion now.

"Hi."

I tore my eyes off the ceiling when I heard that. I saw Julian standing near my bed with a small smile.

"Hi. How are you?" I motioned him to come over.

"I missed you," he said and hugged me tight.

I suddenly feel at ease and calmed now. I kissed Julian's forehead and pinched his cheeks.

"I brought you some food. Are you hungry?" He looked up to me, his innocent eyes is fiercing through me.

Sa hinaba haba ng biyahe, ngayon ko lang naramdaman ang pagod at gutom.

"Where is it?"

He went on my bed and went out. Afterwards he came back carrying a small tray with his hands. I can't help but smile.

I help him. He smiled at me.

"Ate." Sabi ko.

"Huh?" He asked, a bit confused.

"You should call me, Ate. Okay?"

"Atew," I laughed at his slang filipino word.

I messed up with his hair and eat the food he brought me. After eating, we talked for a moment before he bid his goodbye.

"I'll be back later, Atew."

"Okay, I missed you, Julian. Be careful."

Nang magsara ang pinto ay napawi ang ngiti ko. Well, seeing Julian made me happy even for a short time.

Humiga ako uli at pinilit makatulog.

The following days are different for me. Nagising ako around 6 am at natigilan ng makitang nasa pamilyar na kwarto ako. Tyaka lang uli nag sink in sa akin na nasa London na nga ako.

Wala na akong trabaho, hindi na ako malaya. At walang Pio dito na nakangiti sa kin lagi.

Almost one month had passed. Hindi ako lumalabas sa kwarto ko. Mostly Ma'ma will visit me here, but in return, I just gave her cold treatment, even Pa'pa. But with Julian, I treated him sweetly.

Tumayo ako sa harapan ng salamin ko ang tried to smiled but I failed. Masakit iyong pisngi ko sa ginawang pagsampal ni Ma'ma sakin noong isang araw dahil sinagot ko sya ng tagalog. See, I told you. She doesn't want me to speak in tagalog. She hate that language.

I took a shower and wore a confortable clothes. Just a pair of peach dress and slippers. I let my hair flow over my shoulder. I blinked as I stared at my eyes. This fucking blue eyes!

I was combing my hair when I took a quick room tour. Cause I don't want to admit it but I missed being here.

Walang nagbago sa interior ng design. It's still the same. Even my medals and the picture framea are still in order. I went inside the conecting door to my huge walk in closet.

I sighed. This is my favorite part here inside the mansion. Pinasadahan ko ng kamay ang mga damit doon, mga gown at mga alahas ko. Even my make up is still in a good place.

Umakyat ako para silipin ang mga pumps and stiletoes ko doon. I glance at my bag and smiled a bit. Umupo ako sa pabilog na mini couch doon at nagsuklay ng buhok ko.
