"Las Vegas?" Sam asked me while playing with my hair. "You wanna go there?"
Nakaunan ako sa dibdib niya habang siya ay nakaakbay sa akin. Nandito kami sa living room, kakatapos lang kami kausapin nila mommy. Ayon kay Don, pinayagan raw niya kami na magbakasyon muna. That's a good news because I haven't had a decent vacation in years. Bad news is, maximum of three days only. Naiintindihan naman namin dahil may mga trabaho pa kaming dapat asikasuhin.
"Yes," My lips pouted unconsciously. "I'd love too."
Sam noticed it and he chuckled, ruffling my hair after. "I missed you, Erie."
"I missed you, Sameth."
When he was gone, there was an overpowering sense of loss... I don't want to go through that again. I don't want to be without him again. My room appears to be empty. The mansion appears to be vacant. The racetrack appears to be deserted. Every mission feels pointless.
I had no idea I'd be this empty when he was away.
Each day aches, an uncomfortable feeling seeping through my heart. Hindi kami ayos noong umalis siya kaya hindi ko alam kung paano ko pa aayusin sa kaniya ang lahat pagbalik niya. Walang kasiguraduhan ang lahat. Hindi ko alam kung anong klaseng pakikitungo ba ang ibubungad niya sa akin pagbalik niya.
Noong nalaman kong bumalik na pala siya at siya na ang representative sa Stade Royale, doon na ako natakot. Natakot ako kasi ang una niyang ginawa matapos namin magkita ulit ay umalis. Hindi niya ako hinanap. Noong nagtama ang paningin namin noong gabi na 'yon, ang una niyang ginawa ay lagpasan ako. Hindi niya ako kinausap.
Noong mga pagkakataon na 'yon akala ko hindi na niya ko kailangan.
But both of us seemed to have a realization after those weeks of separation. Sometimes distance could help, but not all the time. I still I figured out my feelings sooner because what if... what if I completely lost him? What if it's too late?
Mabuti na lang at hindi nangyari. Mabuti at nabigyan pa kami ng panibagong pagkakataon kasi kung sakaling huli na ang lahat, hindi ko kakayanin.
Bata pa lang kami meron na kaming isa't isa.
"I don't want to lose you." Sumandal ako sa kaniya lalo at nagpakawala ng buntong hininga.
I heard him chuckle softly. His hand then made its way to mine. "My heart belongs to you since we were kids. No matter how far I go, even if I reach the end of the road in this world, I will always have reasons to find my way back to you."
My heart aches again. But a different type of ache, a happy one. A feeling of finally ending your longing. It aches with happiness.
"You will never lose me, Erie."
Mom's secretary booked us a flight and it's 5 PM on the following day. We're going to Las Vegas. And once I heard about the flight, I immediately packed my things. Isang malaking pastel pink na maleta ang dala ko at white handbag. I don't know about Sam though. Pero hindi naman siya masyadong nagdadala ng kung ano-ano. Kung ano ang kailangan, iyon lang rin ang dadalhin.
