Chapter 14 - The Diary

Keren's Point of View

We both began eating and I must say that the food is really good. It's unbelievably delicious!

While we're in the middle of eating the desserts that are served, a song suddenly played out of nowhere.

Nagkatinginan naman kami ni Khyle. I wasn't expecting that our eyes will meet but that's what happened.

I was even surprised when he stand up and walked towards me and lend me his hand.

'Is he asking me for a dance??'

My cheeks blushed. What the hell! My cheeks are burning and I can sense that it's colored red as a tomato!

"Nangangalay na ang kamay ko, Keren. Baka naman may balak kang abutin ang kamay ko??" sabi pa niya in his sarcastic tone.

Wala na naman na akong nagawa kundi ang abutin ito. Naglakad kami

We both walk on the side of the pool kung saan may glass pala na nakapatong duon. It seems like we're walking on water.

— Song Playing - Can I have this Dance —

He placed my hands on his shoulder and hold onto my waist. I blushed. I haven't been this red in my entire life!

"You're blushing.." agad na napatungo ako sa sinabi niya. Nakakahiya!

"Hey," usal niya sabay kapit sa baba ko at ini-angat ng mukha ko.

"Are you shy?" he asked and I just look down but again he lift up my face and there our eyes met.

"I miss you.. I miss you so damn much, Ren-Ren." he said and I can feel his hands shaking.

Bigla kong naramdaman ang pag-init ng dulo ng mata ko. At hindi nga nagtagal ay tumulo na ang luha ko nang hindi ko alam kung saan ito nagmula.

"Fvck!" he cursed and wipe up my tears. I don't know but I hugged him. I felt him shock in what I've done but I don't care. I just really want to hug him. To hug him tight.

'Why do I miss this kind of feeling? This feeling that I'm hugging this person.. it's so warm and I feel safe in his arms. I feel so.. happy.'

"Hush, okay? I-I don't like seeing you crying," he said while comforting me, slightly rubbing my back.

"Ang panget mo kasi kapag umiiyak ka." bulong niya pa at agad na humiwalay naman ako ng akap sa kaniya sabay hampas sa braso. Natawa lang siya sa ginawa ko.

Kita ko ang saya sa mga mata niya habang ang mga ito ay nakabaling sa akin. Masaya ako. Hindi ko alam pero masaya ang puso ko, at gustong-gusto ko ang pakiramdam na ito.

Bigla na namang sumakit at ulo ko. Tila ba ay parang masisira ang pandinig ko sa sobrang lakas ng tunog na hindi ko alam kung ano ang naririnig ko.

Bigla na lamang akong bumagsak at kita ko ang dali-daling pagsalo sa akin ni Khyle. Kita ko pa na may sinasabi siya ngunit hindi ko talaga siya marinig, hanggang sa mawalan na lang bigla ako ng malay.

Nagising ako ramdam ang malambot na matres ng hinihigaan ko. Agad akong napamulat at napagtantuan na hindi sa akin ang kwartong ito. Kulay abo ang pintura ng dingding ngunit hindi ito masama sa paningin. Sa totoo nga lang ay napakaganda at napakaayos ng kwartong ito.

'Tss. Mas maayos pa sa kwarto ko at ng mga kuya ko.'

Bahagya akong natawa sa aking naisip. Naramdaman ko ang pag vibrate ng cellphone ko sa aking bulsa kaya agad ko iyong inilabas.

Mom Calling~~

Sinagot ko naman ang tawag at inilagay sa tenga ko ang cellphone.

"Mom?"

"Hija, nasaan ka?"

"Mom, I'm at..." agad kong sinipat ang kwarto at nakita ang isang litrato ng lalaki sa may side table and that i knew..

"I'm at Khyle's house"

Di agad ako nakarinig ng sagot mula sa kabilang linya na siyang ipinagtaka ko naman.

"Mom? Still there?"

"Ah, yes, yes. Uhm.. anak, can you go home now? We have to attend to a lunch meeting."

Nagtaka naman ako sa sinabing iyon ni Mom. A lunch meeting?

"What for?"

"I'll tell you the details when you get home. Bye."

"Wait, Mom--"

*toot* *toot*

"Argh" inis na binato sa higaan ang cellphone ko.

Why does she have to end the call? Nakakainis naman si Mom, aba! Doesn't she know na nakakabastos 'yun sa part ko? Chour! Ang drama ko naman! Daming arte ng lola nyo noh? Oh edi sorry na agad! Haha!

Kukunin ko na sana ang cellphone ko para makaalis na nang mapansin ko ang isang papaer bag na nasa may sofa na kalapit mg side table.

Akin namang kinuha iyon upang malaman kung ano ang laman. And there I saw a dress. A light blue dress with a floral design and some undergarments plus a cream flat shoes. I took it all out of the paper bag and didn't thought it would have a diary at it's bottom.

I sat on the edge of the bed and open the diary. There was a sticky note attached on it's first page.

" Good morning, Beautiful. I hope you had a good sleep. I didn't bother waking you up so I will leave all this stuff to you including this diary. And one more thing, please bare with my handwriting. Thanks. - Khyle "

I laughed at what the sticky note says. Tss. His handwriting is not that bad. I can clearly read it. Maybe it's just because he seems to think that girls are judgemental when it comes to handwritings? Maybe.

I began reading what the diary is all about. Well, it was all about his days when she's with a girl. A girl who made her smile and the girl he always tend to protect. A girl that he like and love at the same time.

While I was in the middle of reading it my head began to hurt but not that so much. I look at the diary and saw a picture.

It's a picture of me and Khyle.
