Chereads / A Kiss For Sky / Chapter 51 - Chapter 50

Chapter 51 - Chapter 50

Our first, second, third, fourth, and fifth monthsary were done, and we're looking forward to our sixth monthsary by next-next week. Each month, of course, I always made an effort at hindi ko rin inaakalang pati siya mageeffort sa lahat ng importanteng araw na 'yon.

On our first monthsary, we had a date and I gave her 31 different kinds of flowers while she gave me 31 letters starting from our first day as a couple down to the 31st day. On our second monthsary, we celebrated with our families. On our third monthsary, since both of us love kids, we went to a charity event that my parents are lending help at tumulong kami sa kanila na pakainin ang mga bata at pasiyahin na rin sila. On our fourth monthsary, I'd brought her to the Province of Gaiety, I'd introduced her to our relatives and we did so much fun there. On our fifth monthsary, we went to Siargao Island and we stayed there for a week. Buti na lang at saktong Foundation Day sa school at two weeks ang celebration no'n. Hindi naman compulsory na pumasok kasi wala rin namang klase, eh. So, we decided to be there at Siargao for a week and have some fun, together!

Hay! Every time I'm with Veia, I feel like we're just the only humans living on Earth. Sh*t, man! I really am so in love!

"Sky," Veia suddenly called me. We're at home, but specifically at the garden. Naglatag kami ng tela sa damuhan, so we can lay there and watch the stars glistened.

"Yes, Vee?" I replied.

She suddenly hugged me, "thank you," she uttered.

"For what?"

"For loving me and for treating me like your Princess."

I kissed her hair, then I said, "sabi ko naman sa'yo, 'di ba, I am your Prince and you're my Princess, forever."

"Eh, I love you, Sky," she whispered. That's my favorite line of Veia. Ang sarap lang sa pakiramdam na sinasabihan niya ako ng ganiyan.

"I love you, too, Vee," I uttered and she hugged me tighter.

'To be loved back is what I've been praying. Making countless memories with you, my Love is what I've been dreaming.'

Naalala ko dati pinapanalangin ko lang 'yan, but now...

'Grateful I am that my prayer was answered.'

And, I'll always be grateful! I love her so much!

Hillary's POV

I am here at a bar with Clarkson and Andrei. Well, I usually went here buti na lang I am with the two and they always made sure na walang mangyayaring masama sa'kin. Hind ko alam kung paanong na addict ako sa lugar na 'to, whenever I am drinking nakakalimutan ko ang dapat kalimutan kahit pansamantala lang.

Hay! Bakit nga ba nasasaktan ako? Sh*t! Hindi ko talaga alam! Pero, kapag nakikita kong magkasama sila at masaya, eh masaya naman ako, pero damn it, alam kong may parte sa'kin ang nasasaktan, pero I'd never let it show to anyone, kahit sa dalawang 'to. I want to keep it to myself!

"Gold, that's enough," inagaw sa'kin ni Clarkson 'yong baso, pero kinuha ko ulit, "tsk, papasok ka na namang may hangover?" he asked with knitted brows.

"Hoy!" I pointed him out, "dalawang beshes...lang akong...nagpuntang ishchool...na may hang oveeeer!" sh*t, lasing na nga ako!!

Clarkson shook his head, "fine, Gold, drink as long as you want and forget what you need to be forgotten!" he somehow yelled at me, then he stood up and ordered other drinks. Hoooh! The best!

Andrei suddenly taps my back, "hanggang kailan ko ba makikita ang gan'tong Hillary?" he asked, and I don't even know why, but it seems like I was sobered, all of a sudden. "I want you to be back. The Hillary who's not weak and who don't care about the life of others," he uttered again. "But, I just want you to know, Hillary, even if you change, my feelings for you will never change," he sincerely said.

My tears fell, then I mutter, "sana kasi...ikaw na lang 'yon, Andrei...sana kasi...sa'yo na lang ako nahulog." Then, everything went black.

***

Damn! My head is aching so damn much! I can't even get out of the bed. Tsk!

"Aeiou," Kuya stood up from my mini couch, "let me help you to sit," then, he really does what he'd said.

"Thank you, Kuya," I said, smiling.

He smiled back and he gets something from the bedside table, "here, I made a Chicken noodle soup, this is helpful for your hangover and here's a med, too, take it right after you're done eating," he uttered.

Oh, I really am so grateful for having Kuya Zeus as my brother!

"Hmm, Kuya, sinong naghatid sa'kin?" I asked in the middle of savoring the soup.

"Si Andrei," he replied and I just nod as an answer.

Iyong lalaking 'yon...ilang beses niya na kaya akong nahatid dito sa bahay na lasing? Tsk! Kawawa naman 'yon, minsan nga babawi ako.

"Aeiou, why are you so gloomy?" he asked and I didn't give him a response. "Ilang beses na akong umuuwi ng bahay na lasing ka. Tsk, makakapasok ka pa kaya sa lagay na 'yan? Ano bang nangyayari sa'yo? Baka bukas makalawa ipatawag na 'yong parents natin dahil bumabagsak ka na sa klase mo," his voice sounded so concern, pero halatang naguguluhan din siya sa mga nangyayari sa'kin. Tss! Kahit ako rin naman.

"Don't worry, Kuya, hindi ako babagsak. I'm damn sure makakapunta akong second year on time," I replied.

"Bakit ka nga ba nagkakaganiyan?"

"H-Hindi ko alam."

"Hindi mo alam o ayaw mo lang tanggapin 'yong dahilan, Aeiou?"

I was muted. Ano nga ba talaga? Alam ko ba o hindi? O ayaw ko nga lang talagang tanggapin?

Ayaw kong tanggapin na masaya na 'yong taong—

Napapikit ako kasabay ng pagtulo ng luha ko. Tapos bigla ko na lang naramdaman na may yumakap sa'kin.

"It's okay, Aeiou, this is why falling in love is really hard...lalo na kapag 'yong taong mahal mo, masaya na sa iba," he whispered at mas lalo lang akong umiyak.

Tsk! I am Hillary Aeiou Madrigal Gomez, I can move on as fast as Flash, I promise!
