MBS1 : My Patient is a Mafia Boss

BRIAR'S POV

"Marry me Briar. And I'll prove myself as worth of your yes." Death said sincerely. Wala naman akong nasagot kundi ang mahihinang hikbi at mahinang pag sabi ng 'Your stupid' which is he chuckled softly as respond.

"You really is stupid Death... Stupid..." I repeated. Pilit kong pinupunasan ang mga luha ko sa mata pero ayaw nilang tumigil.

I don't really know how to respond kaya yun nalang ang tanging lumabas sa bibig ko. I was totally guardless dahil sa mga sinabi nya. I don't even know kung paniniwalaan ng utak ko na nangyayari to.

I'm scared to think na baka panaginip nanaman to, at sandaling kasiyahan lang. It's not ganna last long. Jan palang masakit na.

I... I just--- I don't know. I'm shock, overwhelmed. Being happy is understatement. Walang matatawag na tamang word sa kung anong nararamdaman ko ngayun.

Pinag halong takot as saya. Tuluyan na ata akong nasiraan ng bait, but in a good way. My brain is not just coping with this situation. Masyadong mabilis ang mga nangyayari. I couldn't catch up.

"I'll take that as a yes Darling. You can be more harsh if you want, And nevertheless, I don't accept 'NO' as an answer anyway." He laughed out. Then make his way closer to me. Nakatulala lang naman ako sa kanya.

He stopped when his already in front of me and grab my chin up over to his, so our gaze met once more... But suddenly, I felt weak in his touch na muntik na akong matumba pero buti nalang at maagap sya and balance me back to my feet again.

Kahit ako naguluhan dahil sa reaction ng katawan ko towards his touch. Mabilis akong nanglalambot pag hinahawakan nya ako but feel so secure at the same time.

Yung tipong hindi naman ako nakakaramdam ng pagod, but when his holding me or at least our skin touched, ay parang gusto na agad nabumigay ng katawan ko dahil sa pagod. It's like na I can't comprehend my own tiredness if his not holding me.

Weird, but so heart filling...

"I'm sorry Briar... I been so selfish... I hurt you so many times. I'm very ashamed that I only have nothing but this face of mine. I'm so sorry Darling." he whispered. Kitang kita ko naman kung paano dumaan ang mga sakit at regrets sa mata nya. But more on than ay ramdam ko ang bawat sakit na nararamdaman nya...

"S-sorry na naman Death?" I managed to croak, despite na wala akong lakas under his touch. At kung ako ang tatanungin ay parang bumubulong bulong lang ako sa hangin. I can't even tell kung nasabi ko pa ba iyun out loud for him to understand.

"H-how can I t-trust that sorry of yours a-again, Death? D-do you think na g-ganun nalang yun kadali? Y-you even pull this s-stunt off! Alam mo bang halos m-mabaliw ako sa h-hospital dahil ang alam ko ay aalis kayo? I even w-wish na, Huwag na sana akong magising from my s-sedation, J-just to stop the p-pain I'm feeling that you cause and gave me..." Piyok na paliwanag ko. Tuluyan nang napuno ulit ng mga luha ang mata ko. He just brought me over his chest while his arms surrounded me possessively and protectively. Suiting me down.

Ramdam ko naman ang bawat paghinga nya sa may batok ko, and I can say na kahit sya ay nahihirapan din. But despite everything ay hindi parin nakatakas sa pandama ko ang init na nanggagaling sa katawan na. Ngayun ko lang narealize kung gaano ako nilalamig.

"Darling no..." He whispered painfully like his regretting for him self. Pertaining to my wish.

"Yes, Death. Yes. I was so s-scared to the p-point na magwala ako sa hospital ng malaman kong p-palis kayo. I was scared to be l-left alone D-death. The night, when I fall asleep in your arms... I thought maybe I'm wrong over you. Na siguro hindi ka galit. But when I wake up... I almost lose it... I almost lose myself, Death. Ang sakit. Subrang... You don't know how much na muntik na akong sumuko... And you will be wishing not to feel it." I finally break down from his hold, while crying the pain in his chest. Binubuhos ko lahat ng hinanakit sa kanya, Hoping na sana ay maramdaman nya yun, so he would know how it felt to be hurt so bad. But he just tightens his hold over me and it only make me cry more.
