Craise’s POV
“How are they doc?” Spare asked the doctor as I held Venisse hand.
“They are both stable now. Let’s just wait for them until they wake up. Excuse me. If you need anything just call us.” And the doctor said and leaves us.
“They will be okay…” Dixon says as he held my shoulders.
It’s been 1 week and two days since Venisse and Drache was hospitalized and both of them are still asleep.
“I don’t know what will happen to me if she wouldn’t survive this.” I said as I hug her arms.
“Vens, I know you can hear me. You need to wake up there now or else, I’ll leave you.” I said as I looked at her but she’s still sleeping.
“Craise… magiging maayos rin siya.” Mitch then hugs me and I hug her back and I cried.
“Napakulong na ba yung mga hayop na yun?” Kuya Neil asked.
“Yeah. Hindi lang dapat sila makulong. Kung ako lang, hahatulan ko ng kamatayan yung mga yun. Paano ba nakapasok sa skwelahan yung mga yun na may dalang baril at mga kutsilyo?” Kuya James.
“Let’s not talk about them. Kung sino man yung mga yun, tingin ko hindi lang basta-basta coincidence to. I think this was all planned.” Spare said kaya napahinto ako.
“Planned? At sino naman ang gagawa nito at bakit kailangang pati si Xander eh madamay?” Tanong ni Shane.
Yeah, she’s also here and she didn’t want to leave Drache’s side. Kung gising lang si Vens, baka kanina pa natamaan yan. Ba’t ba kasi pumasok pa siya sa buhay namin?
“Baka ikaw. Baka nagkukunwari kalang at plinano mo talaga na si Venisse ang mabiktima pero biglaang dumating si Drache at hindi mo inaasahan na mangyayari yon.” I said as I glared at her.
“ME?! At bakit ko naman gagawin yon?”
“Dahil naiinggit ka. Sabihin mo nga, where are you when that incident happened? You were just in the room for a while tapos, bigla ka nalang nawala. Saan ka pumunta ng mga oras na yon, Shane?” I asked with mysuspected voice.
“Are you accusing me?” She asked with furrowed brows.
“Why don’t you tell us where have you been at that time?” Mitch asked irritably.
“Why should I? Hindi niyo na kailangan pang malaman.” She said and ignores us. Tumayo ako at lumapit sa kanya at hinawakan ang dalawa niyang kamay.
“NASAAN KA NG MGA SANDALING IYON SHANE?! IKAW BA ANG NAGPLANO NG LAHAT NG ITO?!!” Sigaw ko sa kanya at pinanlalakihan siya ng mga mata. Right now, gigil na gigil na ako sa kanya. Ibinaon ko ang mga kuko ko sa balat niya.
“CRAISE!” Pigil sakin ni Spare at pilit akong hinila palayo kay Shane pero mas lalo kong ibinaon ang mga kuko ko sa balat niya.
“Awww… Ano ba? Hindi nga kasi ako ang may gawa nito!” Sigaw niya atsaka umiyak.
“Craise! Wag ka munang mambintang kung hindi pa natin alam!” Spare yelled as he pulled me away from her.
“Okay, FINE!” I yelled and cross my arms. Patuloy lang umiyak si Shane habang hawak yung dumudugo niyang wrist. That serves her right. Kung gising lang si Vens, mas malala pa ang gagawin niya diyan.
“Okay ka lang?” Tanong sa kanya ni Spare sabay lapit at lagay ng panyo sa wrist niya. Nabwibwisit ako.
“SPARE! Let her be like that!” I yelled furiously.
“Craise. Hindi dapat tayo magjump sa conclusion. Hindi naman natin alam kung saan talaga pumunta si Shane non kaya hindi dapat natin siya pagbintangan.”
“Wow… Just… WOW! Are you hearing yourself Spare? If only Venisse is awake, she would surely hit you in head. Pinsan mo ang nakahiga ngayon sa hospital bed at hindi natin alam kung ang babaeng yan pala ang may kagagawan.”
“Pwede ba Craise?! Tigilan mo na ang pambibintang kay Shane?!” He yelled at me that’s why I stumbled.
“Stop defending your fiancée, Spare!” I yelled furiously and they all eyed at me even Shane.
“Wha-what did you say? Fi-fiancée?” Shane asked as she looked at Spare curiously.
“You’re… Timothy?” Sandaling natahimik ang lahat at bumuntong hininga lang si Spare.
“Oo… ako nga.” Spare said as he tied the handkerchief in her hand and stand after and looked at me.
“Thanks for telling them, Craise. Now you put your best friend in danger.”He whipered and leaves the room. Nagsisunuran naman yung iba pang WhiteDragons.
What did I just do? I looked at them and gave me a confious look.
“Just who the hell are you people?!” Shane asked and leaves the room.
I stayed quiet and still standing until I felt my knees trembling. I suddenly sit at the floor and held my face. What did I do?
“Who really are you Craise? Why do you know Timothy Tuazon? And if he’s Ven’s cousin, then who really is she?” Seth asked but I stayed like that for a while.
“We are who we are but not really who we really are.” I said and we suddenly heard the heart monitor beeps. I looked if whose monitor is that and I hurriedly stand up when I realize it was Vens.
“CALL THE DOCTOR!!” I yelled as I held her hand tight.
“Vens, be strong please… we live just the both of us for years… What will I do without you?” I can’t take this anymore. I burst out with tears as the doctor and nurses entered and Dixon held me and pulled me away from her.
“Vens…”
“Shhh… She’ll be okay” Dix hugged me tight and I hug him back.
“Clear.” I heard the doctor says and for a while, the monitor sounds normally again. I rushed beside Vens and hug her.
“Just don’t leave me Vens…”I whispered and sob.
“Hey, Drache is awake!” Gerard yelled and all of them rushed beside him but I stayed at Vens.
“Kuya, okay ka na?”
“Call the doctor!” Geenee yelled as Lester rushed outside.
I looked at Drache and he’s looking at Vens. He forces himself to get up in bed but he can’t and everyone is not letting him.
“Stay away from him for a while.” The doctor said as he checked Draches condition.
Bakit ba nangyayari ‘to ngayon? Sino bang may pakana ng lahat ng ‘to? Bakit kasi late kaming nakarating?
