CHANGE FORTY – FOUR : THE TRUTH.

Ella's POV :

 

"The patient is far from danger, stable na ung vital signs niya. He just needs to rest, buti na lang hindi malalim ung pagkakatama sa right shoulder niya nung bala.  You could go see him now, I'll get going." Ngumiti ung doctor saka umalis.

"Oh thank God." Narinig kong sabi nila Lora saka umupo sa may bench. Napapikit ako at napahinga ng maluwag, ghad it was so close. Pumasok kami sa loob and there we saw Nathan, may oxygen siya sa may ilong then may bandage ung right shoulder niya, ayun lang. Tao parin naman pala siya.

Lumapit si Tine saka hinawi ung buhok ni Nathan, "Napaka tanga mo talagang sira ulo ka ano?" She was in the verge of crying, "Bakit basta basta ka sumusugod?! Feeling mo superhero ka na kaya mo silang lahat mag – isa?! Gago hindi ka ganon!! Gumising ka ngang hayop ka! Inaantay ka pa ng bestfriend ko walang hiya!" And then she cried.

DJ console her, niyakap niya ito at nilayo ng konti kay Nathan. "Stop nagging baby, he's fine kaya wag mo ng sigawan." He tease.

"Asshole, bakit ba late kayo dumating non?!" She ask.

Napatingin naman ako sa mga lalaki, "Oo nga. Bakit late kayo dumating? I called you Vince at magkakasama kayo non. Bakit nauna si Nathan sa inyo?" Tumingin ako kay Vince.

"We didn't know. Hindi namin alam kung gano siya kabilis naka punta. Basta ang alam namin pumunta muna kaming school para tignan kayo." Sabi niya.

"I guess, hindi na siya pumunta ng school. Baka dumeretso na siya sa hide out nung mga hayop. I don't know." Sabi ni Jacob.

"You know how crazy he is kapag kay Sabrina na. When you called Vince that day, you should have seen him cussed to death. Damn, kahit sino mapapaatras sa galit niya." Anya ni Shark saka tumingin samin, looking through his eyes, napapansin kong hindi niya parin makalimutan ung itsura ni Nathan nung araw na yon.

"Kahit ako, I didn't even had the courage to stop him." Sabi ni DJ.

Knowing Nathan, no one can stop him kapag si Sabby na ung pinag uusapan. As far as I can see, he will do everything just for he and God knows how lucky my bestfriend is.

This guy is willing to take a bullet for her.

"What's the plan? Are we gonna hide her again?" Lora ask and that made us stop for a moment. Ano nga bang gagawin? Everyone was silent, thinking of how to make Sabby safe 'cause right now kahit ang dami naming nagbabantay sa kanya, laging silang nakakakita ng way para malapitan siya.

It scares me.

"Should we take her to Paris? Or somewhere far? I know a place in—"Tine cut Macoy off.

"No, I think its better if we tell her the truth." Her voice was so serious habang nakatingin samin. Nagulat kaming lahat, napamura pa nga sila Jacob.

Biglang akong kinabahan, "Seryoso ka ba sa sinasabi mo?" I ask.

She looks at me, "Seryoso ako. She should know."

"Baby, I think hindi naman--"

"No, sasabihin natin sa kanya. We've had enough of lying were gonna tell her right now kung ano ang nangyayari."

I don't think it's a good idea pero she's right, she needs to know the truth. But ghad, sana matagal na naming sinabi diba? It was so hard. "But Tine—how on earth--"

"Anong kailangan kong malaman?" Napatingin kaming lahat sa may pinto, feeling ko nanlamig ako. I can't speak, not even a single word came out of my mouth when I saw my bestfriend standing at the door.
