Chereads / A Kiss For Sky / Chapter 61 - Chapter 60

Chapter 61 - Chapter 60

Sky's POV

I decided to wait for Hillary because Driana's eyes look like they're telling me to give this moment for her and Andrei, so I'd let them go in the restaurant first. I feel happy when Driana smiled at me so wide.

I waited for Hillary on the couch. I get a newspaper and read it. Minutes later, she's finally done, pero hindi pa rin ako tumatayo.

"Sky, tara," she said, but I gestured her the newspaper I'm reading.

"For a while, let me just finish this page," I replied, but seriously, I am just giving Andrei and Driana a time to be together for a moment.

She nodded and sat beside me, "tungkol sa'n 'yan?" she asked.

"About some popular Spanish singers," I answered. 

"May alam ka bang Spanish song, Sky?"

"Yes."

"Anong title? Sample naman."

"Nakakahiya."

"Balita ko maganda ang boses mo. Dali na parinig!"

"Alright. This song is entitled, No Te Apartes De Mi," I uttered, then I started singing. "🎶 Yo pensé que podía quedarme sin ti y no puedo

es difícil mi amor, mas difícil de lo que pensé

he dejado mi puerta entreabierta

y entraste tu sin avisar

no te apartes de mi oh no.🎶"

She gave me applause, "galing! Kahit 'di ko nantindihan. Love song ba 'yon o sad song?" she asked.

"It's a love song."

"Why were your tone and eyes look so sad when you sang it?" I never expected she'd noticed it.

I chuckled, "it's really a love song," I said.

"Sige nga, anong meaning no'n?"

"The song tells, I thought I can still live without you, but I realized I can't, it's so hard. You came into my life without a warning, so please don't stay away from me."

That's my favorite Spanish song since I met her. I don't know where is she right now, but I hope that she's fine. I do really miss her.

"A-Ang ganda," she uttered after a moment of silence. "Tara na—" I held her hand to stop her and let her sit again.

Then, I looked at her without even realizing that we're so close to each other. "Let's stay a little longer," I uttered.

"P-Pero, baka h-hinahanap na nila tayo," she said. I was confused about why she's stammering, but I no longer think about it.

"Just a moment, Hillary," I uttered, then she nodded and get her hand. I didn't notice I'm still holding it. Tsk! She suddenly stood up minutes after, "where are you going?" I asked.

"S-Sa kwarto, kukunin ko lang 'yong cellphone ko," then, she runs through there. Why does she seem nervous? So weird.

Hillary's POV

DAMN! PAGKATAPOS NIYA AKONG SAKTAN PAPAKILIGIN NIYA AKO?!

But wait, sinaktan niya ba ako? Hindi pala. Nasaktan ako ng kusa dahil do'n sa meaning ng kanta. It looks like it's dedicated to Veia. Kaya pala malungkot siya nang kantahin 'yon kahit love song naman 'yong kanta. At, pinakilig niya ba ako? Definitely no. Ako lang 'yong kinilig ng kusa because it wasn't his intention to make me feel giddy of his actions. Ako lang talaga 'yong iba ang iniisip! Tsk!

"Hillary, let's go," Sky suddenly said. Lumabas na rin ako and I'm avoiding his gaze. Ewan, nahihiya ako sa sarili kong pag-iisip!

Sky's POV

When we reached the restaurant, Andrei has been complaining. Ang tagal daw namin, gutom na gutom na siya, but it seems like they had a good time because Driana's smiles are so genuine and wide.

Umorder na rin kami agad, then we also eat too soon. Minutes after, a child appeared, holding three red roses, then he handed it to...Hillary, "esa persona," he pointed the man at the stage, who's now looking here while singing, "me pidió que te diera esto," he added.

"Gracias," said Hillary, then she looked at me, "ano raw sabi no'ng bata?" she asked, but I didn't give her an answer.

"He said that person asked him to give you that roses," said Andrei. Oh, I didn't know he understands Spanish.

"Marunong kang magspanish?" tanong niya kay Andrei.

"I can hardly speak Spanish, but I can understand it," sagot naman niya. Hillary just nodded and continued eating. "Kahit saan ka pala magpunta, Hillary, may nakakapansin sa'yo," he uttered again.

"Ewan ko ba, Andrei," she replied.

"You're gorgeous, Hillary, tsaka matangkad ka rin, kapansin-pansin talaga," said Driana, smiling, but Hillary just shrugged. I'm happy that these two are getting comfortable with each other.

"Para esa señora que lleva un vestido azul real, realmente capturó mis ojos. Eres tan hermosa!" the singer suddenly said. Lahat napatingin sa table namin. Si Hillary lang naman kasi ang naka suot ng dress na kulay royal blue.

"Iba ka talaga, Hillary," said Andrei.

With confusion, she said, "ha?"

Andrei was about to tell her what the singer told, pero inunahan ko na siya, "to that Lady who's wearing a royal blue dress, you really captured my eyes," she looked at me, "you're so gorgeous," I added, staring straight to her eyes. "That's what he said," then, I continued eating, so I no longer knew what was her reaction. 

Minutes after, the singer is calling for someone to sing a song at ito namang si Driana ay itinuro ako agad.

"Nakakahiya," I said.

"Go on, Sky," Driana replied. Hillary and Andrei are now pushing me, too.

"Wala akong maisip na kanta," I lied.

"Can't Help Falling In Love, favorite ko 'yan, sige na," Driana said.

"Alam ba nila 'yon?" tanong ko.

"Alam nila 'yan, go now," she replied.

Tsk! Then, I ended up walking through the stage while these people keep on chanting, 'Ve, hombre guapo!'

(Trans: Go, handsome man!)

"Conoces la canción Can't Help Falling In Love cantado por Elvis Presley?" I asked the Pianist, he nodded and told his bandmates to play the song.

(Trans: Do you know the song Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis Presley?)

I took a deep breath before I started singing. "🎶Wise men say only fools rush in

But I can't help falling in love with you

Shall I stay?

Would it be a sin? If I can't help falling in love with you.🎶"

A lot of people are looking at me, but why do my eyes are stuck on her?

"🎶Like a river flows

Surely to the sea

Darling, so it goes

Some things are meant to be.🎶"

After knowing that Driana wants me to sing this song, at first I thought of dedicating it to Veia, but now...I want to dedicate it to Hillary.

"🎶 Take my hand

Take my whole life too

For I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows

Surely to the sea

Darling, so it goes

Some things are meant to be.🎶"

Don't get me wrong, it's not like I'm falling in love with her that's. Naisip ko kasi baka she now has feelings for Andrei yet she can't say it, but still, she can't help herself falling in love with him.

"🎶Take my hand, take my whole life, too

For I can't help falling in love with you

For I can't help falling in love with you.🎶"

I bow down and everyone applauds, others even stood up. So, I am smiling when I get back to my seat.

"Ang galing!" Driana exclaimed.

"Nice one, Sky," said Andrei.

I looked at her, but she's just looking at somewhere. I wonder what is she thinking now.

Hillary's POV

Alam mo 'yong pakiramdam na gusto mong mag-assume, pero ayaw mo?

It's just two months that they broke up, I know he hasn't moved on yet. Veia is his first love, it's so hard for him to forget his feelings for her. That's why I shouldn't think maliciously on his actions, right?! But, why the hell he needs to look at me the whole time he was singing?!

Damn! I'm getting insane!

I really am happy that I love him though I know he can't love me back. But now, I am so damn confused about his acts! This is really so hard for me!

Sh*t. Ayoko na!
